Yasir Qadhi – Beautiful Names of Allah – 09

00:00:21 --> 00:00:28

			smilla rahmanir rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa salatu salam ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala
alihi wa sahbihi mehreen
		

00:00:29 --> 00:01:11

			we continue in our discussion of the Beautiful Names of Allah subhanahu wa tada and the name that we
will discuss today is the name of Allah, Allah Jamil, the name of Allah, Allah Jamil, and the name
of Jamil translates as the one full of beauty, the One Who is the most beautiful. Now this name of
Allah is an interesting name in that it does not come from the Quran. We do not find this name in
the Quran. Rather, this name is found in the Sunnah. And this leads us to an interesting footnote.
And we mentioned this last week that the names of a law come from one of two sources, the Quran or
the sooner we don't have the right to derive the names from our own mind. We don't just sit down and
		

00:01:11 --> 00:01:53

			contemplate what are the names of Allah? No, we derive them and there are two sources, the Quran and
the authentic sooner. So we actually find a number of the Beautiful Names of Allah in the Sunnah. So
we find them in another source and that is also an indirect revelation from Allah. We believe that
what the prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam said, is also a revelation but not like the Quran. So we
consider the sooner to be a source of theology and law. And the Hadith or the name of Allah jimmied
occurs in a hadith. And that Hadith is a famous Hadith narrated by Abdullah bin Massoud that the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, No one shall enter Jannah, who has an ounce of arrogance
		

00:01:53 --> 00:02:40

			in his heart. You can't enter agenda if you have arrogance. So a man was sitting in the audience and
he raised his hand he said, O Messenger of God, every single one of us, we like to wear good clothes
and have good shoes is this arrogance. So you were saying we can't enter Paradise with arrogance.
But I like to wear good clothes. I like to have good shirts, good shoes, is this arrogance? And the
response of our Prophet system was the beautiful response the most beautiful response in the law her
Jimmy Don't you have bull Jamal? Allah is Allah Jamil. And he loves al Jamal. And I'll explain all
of this in a while. And then he went on he said, arrogance is to look down at people and to reject
		

00:02:40 --> 00:03:21

			the truth when it comes to you. So he defined arrogance and that's a separate topic altogether. We
are interested in the Hadith algemene. So this also shows us by the way, very interesting point, and
that is that there are names of Allah that are known to the prophets. Because on the spot, he said,
Allah is Allah Jimmy, this name is not in this in the in the Quran, is it right, so the Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has some of the knowledge of last names that he shares when the
need arises. And this is proven in the dua the the prayer that we say in the witness sometimes that
Allah I asked you by every name, that you have every name that you have named yourself, every name
		

00:03:21 --> 00:03:58

			that you have sent down in a book, every name that you have taught some of your servants. So there
are names that Allah has taught to his servants that other servants don't know. And there's no
question that our Prophet Mohammed sysm has the greatest knowledge of any human with regards to
Allah and he will share with us that knowledge on a need to know basis what do we need to know we
know what we don't need to know he might know much more and obviously he doesn't know much more and
we don't need to know it. So one of the names of a lot that are processing them had and he gifted
what he shared with us is the name of Jimmy now what does the name of Jimmy entail? What is the name
		

00:03:58 --> 00:04:49

			the most beautiful entail when we apply the name to Allah subhanho wa Taala This actually has four
meanings for connotations number one, that Allah subhana wa tada exalted May he be is himself the
pinnacle of beauty and perfection he himself is a Jamil and there is nothing that is more blessed
and beautiful than him himself. And this is proven in the fact that the greatest reward that any
believer will be given is not Jenna. Jenna is not Paradise is not the ultimate reward. There is a
reward that is sweeter than paradise. There is a reward that is more holy than paradise itself.
Allah says in the Quran lahoma Sha una fi ha what a Dana moseyed. They will have everything they
		

00:04:49 --> 00:04:59

			want in Paradise, but we have something even better than that. We have something even better than
paradise. What is better than paradise itself?
		

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

			It is expressly mentioned in the Quran Would you agree over 80 now there are in Bihar now there are
on that day face
		

00:05:36 --> 00:06:22

			eclipsed it will be set aside and discarded when the ultimate blessing is going to be given. And
that is the blessing of gazing upon the face of Allah subhana wa tada and that blessing cannot be
given to anybody in this world because we cannot withstand the beauty of Allah is too beautiful and
too powerful and too holy for our flesh and blood to see and that's why when Moosa said Rob, big
neon, God like let me see you let me see you Oh Allah, Allah did Allah say lenta Ronnie, you won't
be able to see me you will not be able you cannot bear it. No human has ever seen a law up till now
because the flesh and blood cannot see a law. Our Profit System went up to a distro in Mirage the
		

00:06:22 --> 00:06:41

			blessing Night Journey and a Buddha asked him or messenger of Allah did you see a law did you see
your Lord You were so close ganache Cabo San Do you want closer than any other human being ever in
the history of humanity? You want the closest Did you see a lot? And what did our Prophet salallahu
I just heard him say, No.
		

00:06:42 --> 00:07:33

			There was light everywhere. How could I see him? He was blinded by the light what light the light of
a laws Ville allows a job and this is a beautiful point here. A law has a job by job we mean a veil
and that veil when we wear a veil it is a veil of darkness. It is a veil of envelope and covering.
But ullas veil itself is a veil of light. Aliceville is not darkness. Allah's Hey job itself is a
job of light as a prophet solo sent him said hey job when nor there's a hadith in Sahih Muslim,
Allah is he job is itself nor lo Kasha for who if he were to lift a job that I had offered subo had
to watch he meant to hire a boss or unhealthy the rays of light that would come from his face would
		

00:07:33 --> 00:08:16

			destroy the entire creation. Allah is too beautiful and too powerful for the creation to even see
and withstand. So as a mercy to the creation, Allah has veiled himself from the creation and that
veil is the veil of light and that is why the number one meaning of a Jamil a law himself is the
pinnacle of beauty. And the last beauty is so powerful that we cannot even see it until we enter the
next life and the next world when our flesh and blood will no longer be like this, and we will enter
our eternal state and that is why one of the daughters of the Prophet system narrated by Ahmad ibn
Yasser, the famous long Hadith he said in the DA Allahumma, inni iluka letter novelty illogical
		

00:08:16 --> 00:09:03

			carry him Oh Allah, I asked you the sweetness of looking at your noble and beautiful face. This is a
prophetic da letter novel. He literally called the gaze leather lady this beautiful, so to merely
gaze upon a law is the ultimate blessing. And that is because Allah is Allah Jimmy This is the first
meaning. The second meaning that Allah azza wa jal names and attributes are names and attributes of
beauty and perfection. Every Name of Allah is a name of beauty, every attribute of Allah is an
attribute of beauty. And we have seen this already in the names that we have discussed, that allows
the wedges names and attributes, his characteristic is that that of beauty. The third meaning is
		

00:09:03 --> 00:09:50

			that a lot of dealings with the creation or dealings of German or dealings of beauty, a lot deals
with us in a beautiful manner. He overlooks almost all of our sins, He forgives, he covers up he
does not deal with us in an evil manner, in an uncouth manner. He deals with us in the most
beautiful manner beyond even what any human can do. Allah says in the Quran, if I were to deal with
mankind in accordance with what they did, if allow her to be fair, exactly every evil be punished
and every sin be rewarded. If every sin that we did would be punished. Allah says Matata, kalavati
Hammond Dabba Not a single creature would remain on the soil. If Allah were to deal with us the way
		

00:09:50 --> 00:09:59

			we deserve, but Allah doesn't do that. Why? Because he is a Jamil he is the beautiful and he deals
with us with a beautiful manner. He
		

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

			overlooks almost all of our sins and he is willing to forgive each and every sin if we turn to Him,
and He rewards us much more than we deserve. These are interactions of Jamal because Allah subhana
wa tada is Jimmy. And the fourth meaning of Jamal is that of the meanings of a Jimmy is that Allah
subhana wa tada made his creation beautiful itself itself. So Allah is Allah Jamil. And he created
the world in a beautiful fashion and manner, He created us in the most beautiful fashion was so
working for us. And also, he created the world in a manner that every one of us even those have no
faith, they are in all when they look at the beauty of the creation. You know, we all once in a
		

00:10:47 --> 00:11:32

			while we get a postcard on in the mail, or even online or Facebook, there's these videos that come
of these beautiful places in the world, these mountains and these rivers and these fjords and these,
and we see these images, even if you have no faith, your heart is filled with a sense of all of
appreciation. And a leading theologian of our times a Christian cleric, he actually remarks, one of
the proofs of the existence of God, this is a Christian. And he says one of the proofs of the
existence of God is the fact that we as humans appreciate the beauty of the creation. Because
there's no reason for a biological entity without a god to appreciate beauty. The fact that we can
		

00:11:32 --> 00:12:16

			appreciate beauty indicates that God is beautiful, and he created his creation beautiful. And he
then gave us the mechanism to recognize that beauty. And this is a valid Islamic point. The very
fact that we can recognize beauty and Allah says in the Quran, in a few 100% what you will, the in
the creation of the heavens and earth in the alteration of the night and day looking around you. You
see the beauty, all of this there are Signs for those who have faith. And every one of us when we
see a star studded night, when we see the sunrise or the sunset, when we see some of these beautiful
places on our planet Earth. We cannot help but be overwhelmed by the perfection and the beauty of
		

00:12:16 --> 00:13:00

			Allah's creation because Allah is a jimmied and he loves a Jamal. And the final point you can even
make this a fifth point is that of the meanings of a Jamaat, as our Prophet sallallahu Sallam said
is that Allah loves Jamal in the law. Jimmy, you hate bull Jamal, so he loves to see us dressed up
in a beautiful manner. Allah says in the Quran, this is a Quranic verse. Whoa Zhu Zhi netta come
into the masjid. Wear your best clothes in every mosque. Allah wants us to dress up in an Islamic
manner without going or extreme without arrogance without gibberd without showing off. Allah says
who's the next icon in the Quran MSG. Take your best clothes to every Masjid and our Prophet
		

00:13:00 --> 00:13:37

			sallallahu alayhi wa send them in this very Hadith when the man says is it arrogant to wonder where
a good shirt and a good pant? Is it arrogant to want to wear good clothes and good shoes. What did
our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam say in the law Jimmy loon, you have bull Jamal. That's not
arrogance. It's okay to want to wear and dress decent. Our Prophet sallallahu Sallam had special
clothes you would wear on Friday on eat. He had special clothes when guests would come dignitaries
our prophet SAW Selim was very particular about smelling good, looking good grooming himself. Some
religions, they want you to look bad. And I'm not making this up. Some religions thinks it's not
		

00:13:37 --> 00:14:16

			appropriate to take that there are some religions out there. They don't take baths or they consider
that you should have a shabby look, you should dress down You should wear torn garments. That's not
our faith. In our faith. We are commanded not to be extreme, not to go flashy and overzealous. But
we're also commanded not to underdress once a man came to the Prophet sallallahu Sallam and he had
shabby garments patches here and there and the process and said, Do you have money? Or you have some
wealth? He said yes, Allah has blessed me with gold and silver and camels and whatnot. So the Hadid
goes along, loves to see the effects of his blessings on his servants. Meaning if Allah has blessed
		

00:14:16 --> 00:14:56

			you with money, don't dress like this. Allah loves to see the effects of his blessings on his
servants in the law Jimmy lawn, you hit pajama now obviously have to give the caveat here. Allah
does not like it's rough. It's rough means to go flashy to go overboard, to wear overly expensive
and and to be gaudy, no, that's not Islam. But at the same time to dress shabbily to have patches
when you can afford that too. That's not Islam. Islam is the middle and you dress according to your
means. And when you dress according to your means you dress with Jamal Of course with the confines
of the Shetty are the garments have to be in accordance with Islamic Sharia. And that's a separate
		

00:14:56 --> 00:15:00

			topic, but the point is, as a rule of principle, memorize in the
		

00:15:00 --> 00:15:41

			Aloha Jamie loon your head bull Gemma the bottom line brothers and sisters of the Most Beautiful
Names of Allah in fact it is the name of beauty itself of the Most Beautiful Names of Allah and the
name of beauty is Allah Jimmy and knowing this name believing in this name, it makes us feel such a
sense of humbleness and pride. We thank Allah that we are worshipping Allah Jamil and we become we
become very eager to see Allah Jamil every one of us should want to see a Jamil That should be our
top goal is to get the blessing of looking upon the face of Allah Jamil. So let us memorize that
Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Allahumma in the Luca led that another illogical
		

00:15:41 --> 00:15:52

			Karim Allah asked you for the for the sweetness of looking upon your beautiful and noble face
