Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh we begin by praising Allah subhanho wa Taala who is worthy of unlimited unconditional praise? We praise Allah subhanho wa Taala for every blessing that we recognize and for the blessings we do not recognize, we praise Allah subhanho wa Taala for having guided us to Islam were it not for Allah's guidance, we would not be guided. We praise Allah subhana wa Taala for the blessings of the Quran for Allah azza wa jal chose us to reveal the best of all of his books. We praise Allah subhanho wa Taala for making us of the ummah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and that is the greatest honor because it is the greatest Ummah, we praise Allah
subhana wa Tada for the blessings of health, the blessings of wealth for the blessings of safety and security. We praise Allah subhana wa Tada for each and every blessing that we do not even recognize and know as Allah azza wa jal says in the Quran, we'll ask Bella IT company anima who la Hilton Well, Tina, he has immersed you in His blessings, some of them are apparent and and you know them and others others of them are hidden and you do not recognize them as to what follows. We are continuing our series of the Day of Judgment. And to be honest, I am very sad, having entered the masjid which is totally empty and speaking to you from an empty room and seeing this this
magnificent house of Allah subhanho wa Taala the way that it is, it is very troubling. And we ask Allah azza wa jal to lift the Weber and the Bella that has come down because of our own sins. Truly, it is a very sad time that we are witnessing now. And we ask Allah azza wa jal for for Afia.
Nonetheless, we must continue regardless of what happens we must continue and persevere in our worship of Allah, and in increasing our knowledge, and of the aspects of knowledge that we were busy with. Before all of this began, I was doing a series about the day of judgment. And I had reached the concept of Shiva and I had done a number of lectures about the Shiva of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and then that allowed us to go into the tangent about the types of Shiva and we wanted to do all of them. But what began all of that before the tangents would began, all of that was the Shiva of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to begin the day of judgment. Remember that
right? Then we said, since we're doing Shiva, we might as well discuss all types of Shiva. So I went into chronologically attention because the Shiva of the people of Jana the Shiva at the end of times this Shiva at the very end of the bibble of Johanna, that's not going to happen on the Day of Judgment, it's going to happen eons later, it's going to happen, a timeframe we don't even know about, but I wanted to all of that. And we have discussed basically the categories of Shiva and the controversies over them. Now we're going to come back and we go back to that hadith where our Prophet sallallahu wasallam was bowing down in front of the Throne of Allah Subhana Allah to Allah
and Allah subhana wa Tada says, yum Mohammed Arafat sick Sal toto is far too short fat that all prophets of Samia Mohammed, raise up your head, who will testify speak you shall be listened to ask you shall be granted what you want and then give the shofar. So Allah subhanho wa Taala will ask the prophets or some to lift up his head, and that will be the beginning of the day of judgment meaning the judgment of the Day of Judgment. Obviously, judgment day has begun as a concept and what is going to happen well, the next concept or the next issue that the Quran and Sunnah mentions and the Quran is very explicit about this. And it is something that the believers heart should tremble at,
and the Imam should quiver when they hear about the next aspect and that is that Allah subhanho wa Taala himself is going to come to the plains of the Day of Judgment and Allah azza wa jal will descend down and he will come in a large gathering of angels. And the Quran mentions in a number of verses that Allah azza wa jal will come on the day of judgment to begin the judgment itself. And for example, Allah says in the Quran can either do cattle or do that can that were Jah or a book our medical software and software? No, on that day, remember the day that the Earth itself will be leveled and pounded and crushed? Either Ducati will outdo that conductor. Then Allah says wotja Rob
Booker Well, Malak and your LORD shall come and the angels will come soften Safa row after row. And this is of course in Surah Al Fajr. And Allah subhanho wa Taala mentioned Suzdal Baqarah verse 210, after he mentions the punishment for those who reject Allah and he threatens them by and tells them to repent and accept Islam. Then Allah subhana wa Taala says hello
Luna Illa and yet to whom Allah who feel Voula the mineral Hammami? Well Mara, what are they waiting for? It's a rhetorical question. What are they waiting for? What is what is going to cause them to repent? Are they waiting for the time that Allah Himself is going to come? Yeah, to whom Allah Allah is going to come feel fuller, the middle Hammami well manna in the shadows of many clouds surrounded with the angels, while all the lumber and the matter shall be settled, meaning judgment is going to happen where in Allah He told her Gerald Moore and all affairs shall turn to Allah shall return to Allah subhana wa Taala and Surah Al Anam verse 158 SUTA and verse 158, once again, in the context of
threatening those who reject religion and those who reject the Day of Judgment, Allah is telling them what will cause you to repent, what are you waiting for? I mean, what will cause you to wake up and realize that there is something that's going to happen after life life after that is going to happen? So Allah azza wa jal then says Hello young Varuna in and to whom Romana equal to oh, dear Rob Booker, T abou yatirim Pick what are they waiting for? Are they waiting that the angels all of them come down? Or are they waiting for Allah azza wa jal himself to come? Or are they waiting for some of the signs of Allah to come? In other words, it is very clear that Allah azza wa jal is
saying there's what are you going to delay? What are you delaying? There will come a time when all of the angels will come? And they will come a time when Allah Himself will come? What is that time this is very clear and spirited Fajr can either to cater to the conductor wager or a book on Microsoft Word Gee, yo, Ma, e then be jahannam. And also on that day, Johanna will be brought out so that day is the day so Allah azza wa jal is mentioning what are you waiting for? For how long will you be in the state of heedlessness in the state of ruffler? Rejecting Islam rejecting religion rejecting turning to Allah subhanho wa Taala and in the famous Hadith in the jam ever Timothy, that
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said hadith is authentic. Either Kenyan will pay Amity yen zero Allahu eland arriba Delia cobia Bina whom will Kulu own messenger Thea that on the Day of Judgment yen zero Allahu eland. rebored. Allah subhana wa Taala will come down to his servants Leah called Leah they know whom to judge between all of them. So this is an authentic hadith in the Sunnah Nova Timothy that our Prophet system is explicitly saying, on the Day of Judgment, Allah Himself is going to come and Allah Himself will decide between all of his creation and there is also a verse in the Quran that is used by some of the scholars of the Sahaba Tableau, the tableau Tableau
and some of the early scholars of Islam to affirm this concept of Allah azza wa jal himself coming down on the day of judgment, and that is the verse in Surah xumo Wash rocketed out, do they know the rock behalf? And on that day, the earth is going to be lightened up by the light of Allah azza wa jal wash rocketing out do they know the rock behind the new rule of Allah azza wa jal will make this whole earth lightened up what will the Al Kitab and Kitab meaning the book of deeds, we're going to talk about this in our next lessons, the book of deeds is going to be brought down and placed where g have been nabina was shahada, he will call the Aveda home and the prophets will be brought and all
of the witnesses will be brought and the matter shall be settled. Now, the beginning of the verse says what wash raw cotton out will do they know the rock behind this earth shall be lightened up with the light of its Lord. And so this is an indication that something is going to happen to cause this whole Earth to brighten there will be a bright light coming from Allah subhanho wa Taala and a Tabari, the famous professor of the Quran, one of the earliest scholars of Tafseer, one of the largest books of Tafseer ever written, by the way and one of the most beautiful and authentic books of the have seen is the famous Tafseer of Imam Ali Baba Ji and the amount of poverty he died around
310 or 311 Hijra and he wrote a very massive book of Tafseer which is called the Jamberry by Atlanta with Al Quran which is the comprehensive explanation regarding the Tafseer of the Ayat of Allah subhanho wa taala. And this is over 30 volumes by the very massive book. And in Manitoba. It says in this book that for Allah to outdo binuclear of Bihar, the earth shall be lightened up by the light of its Lord without the Kahina Yeah, but his or Rahman will be forced to live Cola in a holiday here and that is going to happen. One of Ramadan himself comes in order to judge between his creation and Imam October he brings a number of narrations from the early companions and the early Sahaba. For
example, Al Hassan Al basileus
Famous has an advisory and has an advisory died 110 Hijra. Imagine he studied with some of the Sahaba and he met some of the great Sahaba it has an advisory said that when it is the Day of Judgment yeah but is Rob buena. Our Lord shall appear so the entire creation will see him but the kaffir will be veiled from him and we're gonna get back to this point of the veiling of Allah subhanho wa Taala and emammal Bella with the great scholar of Tafseer as well. He said, What Ashoka turned out to be neuro below the rock behalf the earth shall lighten up by the light of its Lord Imam Muhammad, the commentator of the Quran, he said whether the kahina digelar Rob bully foster
Koba beinhaltet, this is going to happen when Allah Himself will will come and appear in front of his creation in order to judge between all of them. Now, the issue of Allah azza wa jal, therefore, the Arabic is Alma G, or an Etn Jah or a book, yeah, to rob book, these are the two words that are used, and Jah means to come and yet do means also to come. And the issue here comes now, and this is not I have to go to a bit of a tangent. I don't like to do this, but the content and the words that we have used, necessitate a brief or maybe not so brief, we'll see how long it goes. Bit of a tangent here about what do we do with these verses that seem to suggest that Allah azza wa jal is
coming down that Allah azza wa jal is going to come on the Day of Judgment that Allah shall appear on the Day of Judgment? What do we do with these divine attributes that might possibly give human like characteristics The fancy term is anthropomorphic it is the fancy term anthropomorphic simply means human like and of course, the Quran and Sunnah have many attributes of Allah subhanho wa taala. And some of them we understand without any problem who Allah is hate and a you we all understand what hate and kill you means. Allah is Samir and Allah is bossy and Allah is ideen. And Allah is Habib, and Allah is the Rahman and Rahim we all understand what these attributes mean. And
then some of them, some of us we don't really think too deeply about them. And perhaps that's a good thing as we're going to come to but other scholars have thought deeply about them. What do we do when Allah azza wa jal says in the Quran, when he is speaking to IBLEES when he's speaking to Bliss? Allah says, Mama now I can test you the demo halacha to be the year or Emily's Why did you not prostrate to this being whom I created with my two hands? Yeah, the year my two hands. What do we do when Allah Azza saying two hands in the Quran? What do we do when we say whatever call word you who rub big that the face of Allah azza wa jal is going to remain and this is what you are big in
multiple times in the Quran, and in the Hadith, or we will be wedge Arab because seek refuge in the face of your of my Lord. So we have the term face here. What do we do with other of these, for example, in the Quran, perhaps the most famous example that so many scholars discussed in the past, in a number of verses seven, to be precise, Allah subhanaw taala mentions in the Quran that he has estaba louche that Rama, no eyelashes Stella, the outage is the majestic Throne of Allah. And the word is the word linguistically it means to rise over. And so if we were to translate this verbatim, it would say that a Raha man has risen over the throne. So what do we do with all of these
attributes that have been deemed problematic by some group of early scholars? Well, this is not an advanced theology class. And actually, I do teach advanced theology, we go into this in a lot of detail in those classes. But to summarize, you do have a spectrum of you know, schools and interpretations. And if you go to any advanced seminary, if you teach, if you study with any scholar, advanced theology, frankly, even intermediate, frankly, even very basic theology, if you do any textbook that is written in the last, you know, 1400 years of Islam, to be honest, 1300 years, excuse me,
you will find this attribute this issue of the attributes of Allah to be a very central concept of Islamic theology at the textual level meaning when you study a book that a theologian has written trying to teach you Islamic theology, no matter what felucca no matter what group you go to, this will be a very main portion of that classical textbook or even modern textbook and that is how do we understand the divine attributes and you have so many different formulated Creed's, this is a Been there done that deal meaning that you already have the Creed's and the mud hubs and the Fibrox already formed. So you have the authority creed, you have the Asiatic creed, you have the maturity
creed, you have the martensitic credo of dizzy decree. You
Hold the ball Dooku you have the international decreed you have all and you have others, by the way, you have all of these Been there done that this is a discussion that no exaggeration, hundreds of 1000s not hundreds and 1000s hundreds of 1000s of treatises and counter tree disease and refutations and counter refutations have been written. And you find that generally speaking, those theologians who study many years in the sciences, they become very passionate about their schools interpretation. And they view their schools interpretation as being not just the only valid one, but to the point that if somebody disagrees with that interpretation, they are incorrectly guided, they
are heretical, or they are deviant. They are bad Muslims for holding this theology. And it is all too common to find people who criticize in a very harsh manner, other movements and groups that have alternative opinions. And I would say that, and I speak as somebody who used to be like that a decade ago or so, I would say that this type of misguided enthusiasm is simply not useful for the OMA for many reasons. Now, it's not the sculptor time to go into all of them. But I think the most obvious one is that those people who dive deep into these issues and they spend many years studying these issues of how we understand the attributes of Allah, what does it mean when Allah says wotja?
Or a book or a rackmount? or Allah? Or Belia down Baba sorta Tandy? What do all of these mean? And they learn and they read and they listen to their teachers. What happens is, after a while, they become disconnected from the average Muslim who comes and prays and reads the Quran and wants to come closer to Allah subhanho wa taala. And they surround themselves with people of one like minded nature. And they forget the average Muslim outside of that bubble that they have created in their seminaries and amongst their peers. The average Muslim really is not troubled or bothered or concerned with the deeper implications and the ramifications of what exactly does this mean, if we
do this, then that the average Muslim is reading the Quran wanting to enter Jannah, wanting to worship Allah subhana wa Tada. So when the advanced student of knowledge who has studied these textbooks with his or her, you know, teacher now goes out of the seminary and starts lambasting and criticizing other Muslims for this, and that the average Muslim has never heard of these controversies, the average person is clueless as to what this group and that group says, and frankly, brutally honest, it's not going to increase their Eman to learn the deviations of other groups. So it is a mistake, in my humble opinion. And this is what I have been doing for the last
decade or so it is a mistake to bring these classical debates that took place between various theologians of various schools, it is a mistake to bring them to the member or the pulpit of the masjid, it is a mistake to introduce your average Muslim to these issues, and it is best to gloss over them. And even if you hold a position, and obviously every theologian and every advance student is going to hold the position, there is a time and a place and an audience and the language I repeat, there is a time and a place and an audience and a language to bring up these very difficult topics of what does it mean that Allah is coming down on the Day of Judgment? What does it mean that
this anatomy, really, no matter what position you follow, feel free to you know, defend it in a legitimate manner, but in the audience that is going to be affected by it. And it is not my philosophy, to nitpick and find the mistakes of other people. And frankly, we have far, far, far bigger issues facing our own then the inter Sunni and interest Sunni because even within Sunni Islam, you have various strands, even within Sunni Islam, you have various interpretations. And of course, outside of Sunni Islam, you also have various interpretations and the average Muslim and that is like 90 to 95% of the time, I would say the issues that are troubling them that are
problematic to them have nothing to do with the classical controversies between the ASHA IRA and the MA to read these in the mortar Zealand the authorities and the body this is all gone, we have to worry about far bigger issues. So I do not advise any of the advanced students or the even the scholars with my utmost respect to all of them to bring these issues and start causing fitna amongst the Muslim masses. Yes, teach it in the right audiences amongst advanced students of knowledge that are studying full time and in those audiences you can explain the back and the forth nonetheless because
We have come to this issue and because I do know that a lot of people are watching these videos and there will be some, some generic confusion I need to be somewhat you know generic I'm not going to go into a lot of detail. Just realize that these types of Hadith and verses what, for example, were Jah or a book your Lord is going to come or via
Tiara book that are there waiting for Allah azza wa jal to come these types of verses and a hadith we find two camps if you like, there's more than two but for our purposes, we'll keep the two and the first of them is to basically take what the Quran and Sunnah says and say that look, Allah and His Messenger, they know the Arabic language, obviously, you know, they are the ones who speak it and they're the ones that are really revealing the Quran in it. And so we shouldn't try to reinterpret what Allah Himself says. And they say, that if Allah azza wa jal uses any word that is an attribute of his, or the Prophet system, ascribes in a word, an attribute to Allah subhanho wa
taala, it's not our position to negate that word. Rather, we accept this word, and we leave it's reality to Allah subhana wa Tada. And I'll give you a simple example. We all understand that Allah is Al Haj, we all understand what the meaning of Hey is, that the one who has life we all understand Allah is a Semir that Allah azza wa jal can hear and Allah is edible. See that Allah azza wa jal can see we all understand that Allah is it a bit late but a hobby at an alarming who you that he knows everything. Does anybody think too deeply about how does Allah here and how does Allah say no, we're not supposed to think about it. In fact, even if we try to think our minds would fall short, and to
try to imagine ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada is itself a problem and a sin because our minds can never comprehend Allah subhanho wa Taala and that is why Allah says lay Second Timothy he che there is nothing like Allah subhanho wa Taala there is nothing like Allah we cannot imagine Allah we cannot understand the attributes of Allah. So when Allah is communicating to us, in the Arabic language, the Quran is in Arabic too soon as in Arabic when Allah is communicating to us in the Arabic language, we understand the word, but we will never understand how that concept exists in Allah subhanho wa Taala nor are we required to understand that concept, and this is the position of many
of the early scholars of Hadith especially, and the earliest scholars of the tab Araminta Batavia Ronnie Imam Malik was very explicit on this point a moment Buhari as well Imam Muhammad even humbled many of the books that his students wrote, it is very clear that this was his understanding. And it is an undeniable fact that this is the interpretation of a large group from very, very early Islam. And just to give you one example, I have a book over here that is written by one of the famous scholars of Islam by the name of Abu Saeed Earth monuments identidad me who died in the year 280 Hijra 280 Hijra. This is of the timeframe of Imam Al Bukhari. That's a very early timeframe. And he
has in this book, The chapter Babu Newzoo, the rugby Jamelia material hisab, the chapter of Allah azza wa jal coming down on the Day of Judgment in order to judge the creation, and he brings a number of a hadith and a number of verses, including the verse of Surah Al Baqarah, That Allah azza wa jal is going to come for you Lulu, the middle Hammami will melodica in groups of clouds and angels, that Allah is was going to come down. And then a daddy me says that, and I quote directly from the book and my version that is page 93. And I brought this book so that you to illustrate to you that this is actually a very interesting, a very safe, a very nice methodology that goes back to
very, very early Islam, and it is found in some of the eight most ancient books of theology ever written. So a dichotomy says, all of these texts and a hadith that mentioned that Allah azza wa jal is going to come down on the day of judgment and are going to come down at these timeframes that he is saying, I have found all of my teachers accepting and believing in these traditions, and I have not found any of them, rejecting them until he's talking about another group called the Jamia, they came and they negated it and they rejected what the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, and they began to question listen to this, they began to question how does Allah come down on the Day of
Judgment? A mum and dad me says lamb knuckle lift Malefor take a fee yet in Missouri he fee de Nina. Allah has not asked us to understand how
Oh he comes Walla attack you do who Kulu buena? Neither even can our hearts truly understand how does Allah come when a second birthday he shaved woman healthy, he furnish be human who fit in and also fit and be fair be fair to him also was for him that and neither is the anything of the creation of Allah similar to what Allah subhana wa Taala does such that we can understand what Allah subhanho wa Taala does, rather Allah comes down in a manner in a quadra that he is capable of doing and then he says and this is something that Imam Malik also said an Imam Malik died when 79 Hijra even before a daddy me but two generations and many of the scholars said he said fell K for men who
are you do ma Cool? Well, email will be od Rasulullah sallallahu said if you knew Zuhdi he was jib. How Allah does it we will not understand but Eman in what our Prophet system said that he will come on the Day of Judgment, it is obligatory and none shall ask Allah about what Allah does. And we will be asked about what we do. And Allah azza wa jal is going to ask us and so in this very, very beautiful phrase that the cave or how it happens, we do not think about and one other interesting book as well. You've all heard of him Amato. But he already mentioned the name of Imam autobody as well. And Imam autobody wrote many, many books. He wrote the book of tafsir, which is one of the
earliest books of Tafseer he wrote a very big book of history as well. And he else also has a book on Islamic theology. Very interesting. He has a book on Islamic theology and it is called Top Secret only NUHA
top secret female Allah Medina excuse me, or it's also called Top Secret and Muhammad Ali Malouda the two names for it, but the famous name is a tafsir FEMA Alamuddin by Abu Jaffa, Mohammed imagery of poverty and on page 145 and authority is the one who wrote this famous tafsir he also says that Allah azza wa jal will come on the day of judgment and he mentioned Raja Arbuckle Malik was often suffer and he mentioned Helambu Runa. Eldon Yeah, Tim, if you don't mind me when when I wake up, and he mentioned Hellion, Luna Illa and Tatiana, Morocco. Oh, yeah. To rob Booker. Oh, yeah, the battle do it Arabic. So he mentioned three verses from the Quran, all of which mentioned the coming of
Allah subhanaw taala. And then he says, rhetorically, are you going to believe in these verses? Or are you going to reject these verses? Are you going to believe or are you going to accept and then he goes on and he says, of course, we will accept what Allah azza wa jal is saying. And then he interestingly says, Some people said that, what is meant is that Allah will not come, but rather the Command of Allah will come which are a book the Command of Allah, not Allah himself. But then he says, look at the verse version, or a booker, well, Melaku sufferance of Allah, and the angels are going to come in ranks. So he asks, in this first, when Allah is saying, the angels are going to
come, are you saying, No, it's not the angels, it is the command of the angels? If you say that it is the angels, then why can you not affirm that Allah Himself is going to come down? So this is an interesting narration from autobody himself where he is basically also affirming that no, of course, when Allah is saying, what job or a book, this means, Allah Himself is going to come. Now, this is one interpretation. It is the interpretation of one school of Satanism, and it is definitely found in many, many early Treatises of of Islam. And it is defended by later scholars as well of the likes of Imam of the Hubby, and had been Tamia and Ibrahim, and many of the scholars who followed that
interpretation, it is not the only interpretation, there are other interpretations as well. And we find these interpretations they go back to schools that are now called the vorticity. school and other schools as well. And eventually some of these interpretations are adopted by later schools like the shadow school or the maturity school. And they said that look, when Allah is saying, we are a book, we cannot affirm that Allah Himself comes. And we have, for example, the book written by the great scholar, a woman saw ALMA to read the the founder of the school and how to read he wrote another very early commentary of the Quran, and it is commentary that is written around the same
time as a public commentary. Alma 3d died around 310 Hijra. So it is the same timeframe as the Imam authority and the amount of maturity when he comes to this verse where Jah or a book your LORD shall come. He says that, and I quote you from the seal, that we cannot understand this to mean that Allah Himself comes No, we cannot understand why or a book does not mean your Lord comes. Why? Because he says that Allah exists without a place. So we say that the commandment of Allah
ohms or the judgment of Allah comes or the reward and punishment of Allah azza wa jal comes. And so he said Allah Himself does not come. And of course, this interpretation, it is the hallmark of the other strand of Satanism, which is the motto at the school or the shoddy school, and this is defended by later scholars like Imam Al Ghazali imamo, Joni Imam, Farah, Dean Razi, Al Balawi, and other you know, great orlimar, who followed that interpretation. And,
frankly, my sympathies are with the first school. But in the end of the day, the other school has existed. And we should not make this an issue where we should show any hatred or any animosity. If you want to follow the other school then, either way, I think we make a mistake, by the way we can mistake when we delve into this issue so deeply. And we forget the purpose of the verse itself. And this is a huge problem that both sides fall into both of these sides going back and forth. They forget the spirit of the Quran. Allah did not reveal these verses, so that we debate over the reality of what does it mean what genre book? Well, yeah, tiara, book widow, Allah didn't reveal
that Allah revealed it so that we feel a sense of fear of genuine terror that Allah Himself is coming down. Are we prepared to meet? It wasn't revealed that you start debating and bickering what is the reality? And what is this? And what is that? So I think, but sometimes, sometimes, both of these interpretations and their defenders do a disservice to the Ummah, when they start debating the advanced technicalities, and they lose the purpose of why Allah revealed this verse in the first place. And so my point is, let's just gloss over that classical controversy. And I say this as somebody who clearly has an opinion, and who clearly teaches advanced classes in this regard. But
when it comes to now we're talking about the Day of Judgment, let's ignore the technicalities. And let us understand that the Quran is saying we're Jah or Bukovel mela who suffer and suffer and Allah is saying helium balloon ill and yet to whom Allah, what are they waiting for? Are they waiting for Allah Himself to come down in a surrounded by the angels? So the point of these verses, are you prepared to meet Allah on the Day of Judgment? That's the point, let's concentrate on that point, rather than the technicalities of what does it mean here and there. So the coming of Allah azza wa jal, and however you want to interpret it into something that is very clear in the Quran, and the
Sunnah.
And when Allah azza wa jal is going to come down, obviously, the narrations both in the Quran and the Sunnah, they mentioned another issue. And of course, this issue will have the same spectrum of interpretation as the previous one does. So I'm not going to go into too much detail because now you understand the two paradigms. I explained to you that one group will affirm any word and they're going to say, we don't know how, and we're not supposed to think about how and the other group will problematize the meaning of this word and say, no, no, it doesn't really mean this, it means that and my point is whichever one you want to follow, let's concentrate on the purpose of why this verse
and this hadith exists. And that's more important, frankly, than this advanced discussion, leave the advanced discussion to advanced classes, leave that debate to the students. Let's get to the Quran and Sunnah. And let's get the spiritual point of why is Allah azza wa jal saying this so the Quran mentions that your Lord was going to come down and obviously when Allah azza wa jal is going to come down. This means that the believers will see Allah subhanho wa Taala and that shall give them a sense of all and a sense of hope and expectation and fear all combined. And that is exactly what the Quran mentions. And this is again very explicit in the Quran. And in the Sunnah, for example in
Surah Yama whoo hoo Neoma II then now there are on that day on what day on what day day of judgment, would you hun Yo Ma even now lira with a bod Iraq beha. Now lira with a voc So on that day, faces are going to be shining bright enough Bara Navara Navara means to be shining bright. Now there are there are going to be shining bright with Abad, ye Illa Bihar now Vera, they will be looking at their Lord. So on that day, the believers, their faces will be happy and excited, shining bright, they're going to be so happy Why because they are seeing Allah subhanahu wata Allah and this is the greatest blessing and this blessing it will happen on multiple times, on the day of judgment shall
be the first time that the believers see Allah subhanho wa taala. And of course the concept of seeing Allah. Once again, you have all these advanced, did you know back and forth and I say forget all of that advanced stuff. Let's concentrate on the beautiful beautiful verses and Hadith that we find. And let's knit and let's read
gate the discussions between advanced callers to the seminaries and let's keep it out of our discussions over here. The Quran and Sunnah is very clear that Allah subhanho wa Taala will bless the believers to see him. And it is something that we ask Allah subhana wa Taala for, and this is something that again is very, very clear that Allah says in the Quran, Lila Dena Asano, who snur was the other those who do good deeds, they shall get a husana which is one of the names of Jana and they shall get zyada more than Jana itself. And Allah says in the Quran, in Surah, taufers 35 Lahoma Yasha owner fee Ha, what a day in XID. They will have whatever they want in Jannah. And we have
something even more than what they will want to engender. So, what is this thing? The moseyed and what is this thing the zyada Lilina, Arsenal husana was iada. Those who do good shall have the best gender and they're going to get better than the best what is better than the best? And Allah says in the Quran, they can get whatever they want. And we have a price that is even better than anything they want. What is this thing? Our Prophet sallallahu I sent an explicit said explicitly said that this gift this zyada is the looking at the face of Allah subhanho wa Taala and in the famous hadith of Ammar Ibn Sara narrated in the Sunnah of Ibn merger with a Hassan Chang our Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam made a beautiful dua to Allah and I haven't given a whole lot but about the DUA I think it is online. Give it four or five years ago, but the first phrase in it or one of the phrases and I should say the famous hadith of I might have been Yasser Allah Houma in the Iluka letter now very illogical Kareem will show up in the field radio, Dora Madeira wala fitness medulla, Oh Allah, I asked you this is a Hadith I asked you Oh ALLAH for the sweetness leather, for the sweetness of looking at your noble face. So the Prophet system is asking Allah that Oh Allah, I want to look at your noble face was Shoka in the court and I want to be excited to meet you. Why? Because the
believers will be excited to meet Allah subhanho wa Taala and the hypocrites and then we'll have your own and the kuffaar will be dreading to meet Allah so the believers will be excited and the Prophet system saying Oh Allah, I want to be excited to meet you. I want to be of those who are going to see you and I want to have the sweetness of looking at your face and ALLAH SubhanA wa Allah mentions and so that Alberto 15 Verse 15 so that our motto 15 Verse 15, color in the home are robbing him Yeoman even llama Zhu boon. No, on that day meaning the day of judgment on that day, yo mama, even those people who rejected me, they shall be veiled from their Lord, I robbed him my job
from a job by job, they shall have a hijab a veil between me and them. In our shop very Imam Shafi who died 204 Hijra very early in Islam. He said, when Allah subhanho wa Taala is going to avail himself from the Khafre this shows that he shall reveal himself to the men what a beautiful extraction, Allah is saying, those people they shall not see me, there shall be a veil, which means what the other people will say Allah subhana wa Tada. Now, what if somebody were to say hold on a sec? How can we see Allah when Allah says in the Quran lenta Ronnie, you shall not see me and this is something very explicit. And Allah says in the Quran, Allah to do the cool absorb an eyes cannot
see Allah eyes cannot encompass Allah. And the answer to this is that firstly, as for the verse lenta, Ronnie, it is in context and the context is Musa alayhis salam, asking Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, Allah be Adeney on glory Lake he said, Musa said oh Allah let me see you. And Allah said, Allah lenta Rani, you cannot see me or Musa in this weak, fragile human state that you're in. In this state of flesh and blood you cannot see me and I will demonstrate to you that you cannot see me and Allah subhana wa Tala Philomath agenda or Bulandshahr Jeopardy. Allah azza wa jal displayed himself to the mountain and Giada who can the gerbil the mountain fell down completely crumble
crumbled, and Musa fainted because of that. And so moose has had Subhanak I seek refuge in You, You are Exalted, I know I cannot see you. So when Allah said to Musa You shall not see me this is not a permanent negation. It is a negation in the context of the question I want to see. You know, you cannot see me right now. Allah
xojo cannot be seen by flesh and blood life, the life of this dunya our flesh and blood bones, our weak fragile bodies cannot see Allah azza wa jal in this state, but the state of the art euro is a different state. The state of the art era is another state and in that state, yes indeed the Quran and the Sunnah is very explicit that the believers shall see Allah subhana wa Tada. And as for the verse, la to the Ricoh Obasanjo well, who are you the equal of Assad, what were the three for Kabir, that eyes cannot encompass Allah and Allah encompasses all eyes, our scholars mentioned that Allah is not negating he can be seen. Allah is negating that he can be encompassed in the rock and the
drug is a higher level than seeing a dog is to be fully aware of and to be fully surrounded. And Allah is saying, eyes cannot fully surround me I'm too magnificent for the AI to fully comprehend and understand the level of Iraq is a higher level than that of basalt, or that of another and this is very explicit in the Quran, that we don't quote the Quran ignoring other verses of the Quran. The same Quran that says led to the equal absorb also says would you who normally the Nadira get out of Bihar, now there are on that day faces will be shining bright, because they will be looking at Allah subhanho wa taala. And there are many many evidences of the
the fact that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada will be seen on the day of judgment and in fact, I wanted to bring to you a famous Hadith which is in Sahih, Al Bukhari and Sahih Muslim it is Mustafa Kiley, which is the highest level of Hadith as you know, there is no Hadith that is more authentic than whatever garlic and it is a very, very beautiful Hadith with so many benefits and unhemmed that are one of the things that I like about these classes that I'm teaching is that you know, usually I say that oh, there is no time to do this time is always limited. And I just zoom over when it comes to these series of classes that I'm doing about the scientific judgment about the boat is up and about,
you know, pm and then inshallah we're going to heaven and * Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah. I want to be very, very comprehensive and exhausted to the point of really covering not just the basics, not just intermediate but really doing it at the most advanced level ever done in the English language. Now that that is my goal for many of these series The Sierra and whatnot that this is my goal to do something in sha Allah may Allah accept from me that is my goal. And therefore when it comes to these issues, if it's related to the topic as for advanced theology is not related to the topic this topic is related. So I wanted to quote you a very long hadith of Sahih Bukhari sahih.
Muslim is Mustafa Ali, and it is all about the day of judgment. And it is something that is very pertinent now, this hadith talks about seeing Allah, but it also talks about many other things in the Day of Judgment. So chronologically, it's not quite all of it pertinent right now, but it will be useful and I'm gonna be telling you remember that hadith we did. Remember we talked about that long Hadith, I'm going to be saying this inshallah down the line, so please keep in mind, this is the Hadith that we're going to do and it is a beautiful, beautiful Hadith reported once again, and both Bukhari and Muslim and I wanted to actually quote you the original itself from cyber hottie in
my in my version that is, fertile bodies volume 13, page 430 Hadith number 7437 7437, which is a very beautiful Hadith about the Day of Judgment.
When the writer of the Allahu Allah and by the way, the chapter of Imam Al Bukhari is in his book of Tawheed, which is the very last chapter Kitab adore heat and chapter regarding the statement of Allah subhanho wa Taala that faces shall be bright on that day because they will be looking at Allah subhanho wa Taala so he is proving that the believers will see Allah subhanho wa Taala the hadith is from Abu Hurayrah that and the NASA Kalia rasool Allah * Nara rockburn yarmulke Yama, the people said O Messenger of Allah, will we see Allah on the Day of Judgment? Can you get more explicit than that? Will we see Allah on the Day of Judgment? Hello Narara binomial Koyama, the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam responded, how to door Runa feel calmer a little better.
Does it irritate you? Does it harm you to look at the full moon and the night of the clear moon that the full moon that is there the latest is better is when the 14th of the night the 14th of the Islamic month right on the 14th Night of the Islamic calendar. The moon is absolutely full. And when you look at it, it's so beautiful. It's magnificent. We can see it
Prophet system is saying, Does it irritate you? Does it harm you to look at the full moon in the middle of the month? They said, O Messenger of Allah, not at all. The Prophet system says, are you able to see the sun on a day when there is no clouds? They said, yes, indeed, oh messenger of Allah. So then he said, So then No, no, that you shall see your Lord on the Day of Judgment in that matter, you're going to see Allah subhanho wa taala, the way you're looking at the sun and moon, like you can see them up there, very clear, you're not harmed by it, you're not irritated by it, you can see it, it's there clearly, you will see Allah subhanho wa taala, on the day of judgment. And you will
see Allah the day that Allah that Allah met gathers all of mankind on the day of judgment. And it will be said, and this is, of course, a very deep Hadith. So I'm going to go on now, it will be said that let everybody follow the icon they used to worship. So whoever used to worship the sun will go to the sun, whoever you should worship, the moon will go to the moon, whoever used to worship, the false gods will go to the false gods. And this OMA shall remain because there is no place to go. Yeah, Allah will say, or maybe the angel will say it's not clear, Allah will say, or the angel will say, every group should follow the God that they worshipped. And so every single group is going to
go to its God. Every single group will find, you know, whether it was across whether it was this whether they're going to go to that direction, and this Alma shall be left and Allah subhanho wa Taala will come to them and say, hon, come, I am your Lord for your own have them account on a hat. Tiana Rob buena. fetida are born out of they will say this is where we will remain until our Lord comes to us. And when He comes to us, then we will recognize him fire to whom Allah Houthi Surah T Letty Yadi foon. Allah will come to them in a manner that they will recognize for your oluwo Hon calm and he will say I am your Lord fire owner Anta Rob buena and they will acknowledge yes, indeed
You are our Lord, fire Tabby Runa who and they will follow him. Now this we are jumping over other issues that will take place of the hisab and of the MISA and, and of the hour we're going to do all of this bit by bit. So remember this hadith is summarizing various aspects of the Day of Judgment, but at some point in time, the Muslims will follow Allah subhanho wa Taala and the Hadith goes on well, but it will set out to be in a hurry Jahannam and the bridge is going to be laid in between the two places of Jahannam for a corner and our Almighty a whirlwind ug suhar. The prophets Assam said myself and my OMA shall be the first that is going to cross over the Surat so Allah subhana wa
Tada will lead the Muslims to a place where then they have to cross over the Surat and the Prophet says will be the first to cross over the Surat and his own man that is us will be the first to follow while I have taken them Yama in in the Rasul what our rosary OMA is Allah Huma, Selim, Selim, and no one shall be speaking at that point in time, except for the prophets, there shall be such dread, such terror that no one will say a word other than the prophets and what will the prophets say? Allah Houma Salim sell them? Oh Allah peace, peace. Every prophet is going to be asking for security for their own Wi Fi Johanna McCullough leave me through showcase Sudan and coming from
Johanna they're going to be hooks, like the thorns from the trees of a Sudan. The Prophet system said Do you know the trees upside down? It's a type of tree that was common in a certain area of the ages. And so he says, Do you know the trees that have these long, prickly thorns? They said yes, we know. So he said it will be like those or or even bigger and no one will know its size other than Allah subhanho wa Taala and it will come from Jahannam and it will drag some people down based upon their deeds for a woman who Mohamed El, I will emerge as a winner who some people will slip from the Surat some people will be dragged down and some people will be able to go onward. So this is we're
talking about this at Alton sha Allah and a few weeks whenever we get there, there will be something called the Bridge and the bridge will be over Jahannam and once you cross it then Jana is on the other side. After an area we're going to talk about that as well in sha Allah to Allah, but not everybody will cross the Surat they will be some people who were Muslims in this world outwardly, but they did not have Iman in their hearts. We seek Allah's refuge or there will be some people who were Muslim
was but their sins were so so so many that they don't deserve to enter agenda immediately. And so some of them will be four taken from the set off. Either they will slip themselves or they're going to be a hooks coming from Jahannam and take them down and some people will pass through without any irritation or harm whatsoever. And the Hadith then goes on that after Allah subhanaw taala has finished all of the Cabal all of the decrees between the creation, then he will ask the angels and he will ask the people that whoever testified La Ilaha illa Allah without any shirk, they can be taken out of Johanna. I'm gonna pause here. This is the shefa remember we talked about the Shiva
This is the concept of Shiva, the prophets, the angels the righteous, and this hadith says they shall recognize them be a third sujood telco now even Adam in the othera sujood the fire will eat the person except for the place he did such the How to Ramallah who are the nerdy and tech cooler othera sujood. Allah has made it haram for the fire to eat the remnants of the Sajida fire Hello, gentlemen Inari for them to Haishu they will be taken out of Jahannam certain groups of people and they will be charred, they will be burned to a crisp for him to refer them to issue their burn to a crisp for your sub Bridie Hema will hire, they will be poured upon a water that is called the water
of life Feyen Butina data who they will flourish under that water come a tumble to harbor to the HMI they say just like the seed will flourish, when there is water that is pouring over it. When there is a gush of water coming, the seed is going to flourish flourish. And then there's a beautiful point over here. And then there will be one person who will be taken out of Jahannam by somebody, either an angel or a friend or a prophet, we don't know who he will be taken out of Jahannam and he will be left there outside of jahannam. And his face will be towards jahannam. And he cannot move it anywhere else because that is his punishment right now. And so he will this is the prophet system
said the last person to exit the fire of *. And enter Jana, and he will exit Jahannam at this stage, and his body is outside, but his face is facing Jahannam and so he will stay there for as long as Allah wills him to stay. Then he will say, Oh my lord, can you please turn my face away from jahannam? Because the heat of Jahannam and the stench of Jahannam it is harming me. And so Allah will say to him, oh servant of Mine. If I give you this, will you be happy? You're not gonna ask for anything more are you and the servant will say LAO or exotica la Luca Herrera who I swear by Your Honor, Oh Allah, I will never ask you anything more. I'm happy to be out of Jahannam now that I'm
here in neutral ground, Alhamdulillah I'm happy but just turn my face away. And I'll be never asked for anything more. And he will continue to promise Allah that I'm never going to ask you anything more. And so Allah subhanho wa Taala will allow him to turn his face away from jahannam. But then, when he turns away from Jahannam What do you think he's going to see in the distance far far away, he will see Jen itself and so the profits as I said, for your school to Masha Allah on your squid, Subhan, Allah Subhana Allah, He will remain quiet, as long as Allah wills him to remain quiet. Now in this version, it goes on and the version is slightly Muslim. There are other details and he will
say, Oh Allah, allow me to be a little bit closer to agenda just give me some steps closer I can see it in the distance. Just let me closer. So Allah will say, Didn't you promise me that you would never ask anything more? And so he will say that, Oh Allah just this I promise you nothing more. So Allah will say so Do you swear that if I give you this you won't ask me anything more. So he will give rude and Misaki will continue to give us some to Allah. I swear I just want to get closer. That's it. Once he gets closer, the Hadith says in zymosan He says he can hear the laughter of Jana and he can smell the fate frequencies of gender. In some narrations. The same story keeps on
occurring five or 10 times he keeps on coming closer, closer closer, until finally the idea of the body then goes and jumps and says that, that Allah azza wa jal allows him to come to the gates of Jannah. And now when he gets to the gates of Jannah he can see inside and he can see the happiness of the people. He can hear the laughter of the people inside Jana fire
Scootaloo Masha Allah Who and yes, good, so he shall be quiet, as long as Allah wills him to be quiet. And then he will say, a Arab attending agenda. Oh, my Lord caused me to enter agenda. And so Allah subhanaw taala will say to him for the 12 time, the 15th time now, I'm going over this because other ahaadeeth mentioned so many times, and I'm going over to the end now, because our time is almost up, Allah will say to him, didn't you promise me so many times that you're not going to ask me anything more? And didn't you make an ad awesome, than if I gave it to you, you're not going to ask me I got you out of Jahannam I took your face away from it. I kept you coming closer, closer,
closer, and now you are wanting to enter Jannah and the man will say, Oh my Lord, don't make me your most unfortunate creature that I'm at the gates of gender. And I'm not inside agenda, any don't make me at that level that I'm so close and right outside it and I can see and I can hear and I can smell and yet I am not in it. And so the prophets have said, yield HELCO law who mean who? Allah subhana wa Taala will laugh at this impetuousness man, after 15 times he's given awesome to Allah.
And the purpose here of course is to demonstrate dear human, dear mortal, never say to Allah, that you're never going to ask for anything more. Because we need Allah every single instance one breath we take we cannot expel it without the blessings of Allah and we cannot inhale another without the blessings of Allah never ever feel that oh Allah I just want this one thing and then nothing else Subhanallah you and your existence you and your breath of air you and your food and water you and your morsel of food and sip of water every Adam you take it is from Allah subhana wa Tada Do not be so arrogant as to say I just want this and nothing else on the contrary say oh Allah give me and
give me and give me because none can give other than you and Oh Allah, I want everything that you can give me because you are the robbed and I am the Abdon the trophy. You are the honey and I am the fifth familiar to you. Oh Allah that's the attitude that person should have but this person this miskeen he obviously does not have that knowledge and he thinks I'm just gonna ask this and I don't want anything else from Allah. But holy called insulinoma Nigel man is so hasty hola Collinson, wife, man is so weak that he thinks he can live without the blessings of Allah. And so the man says, I only want this just turn my face away. Allah turns his face away, and he sees gender. And he keeps
on asking maybe 10 times a little bit closer a little bit. Every time he gets closer, the smell gets stronger, the laughter gets stronger. He's quiet as long as he can. Then he says oh Allah closer Allah closer until finally he gets to the very edge of Jana. And he's at the gates of Jana. He can see inside Jana, and then he says, Oh Allah, please just cause me to enter Jannah and so Allah will laugh. Our Prophet system said, as soon as Allah laughs The man shall enter hola laughs Are those whom he loves? So this man, whatever he did, he deserved Johanna, but he still had some good in him and are processing. So this is the last person exiting Johanna entering gender. And so he will enter
gender and once he enters it, once he enters it, Allah will say to him termina go ahead and wish and so he will ask Allah and ask Allah and ask Allah and then Allah will remind him of other things to ask until when he has given all that he can possibly imagine. The Prophet system said, Allah will say, you have all that you asked for, and 10 times this much. And the man will say, Oh Allah, are you making fun of me? Are you being sarcastic? That I asked an astronaut, I got out of things to ask, you told me what to ask. I asked those things. Then you say to me, I will give you this and 10 times this? Are you making fun of me? Oh Allah. And when the prophecies have narrated this, he
himself began to laugh at this same poor miskeen person that look where he was, and look at his whole journey. And now that he enters gender, and then Allah tells him go ahead and teman Ask whatever you want. And when he doesn't even know what to ask Allah tells him what to ask. Then at the end, Allah azza wa jal says to him, Look me through how ashram Italia, you will get all that you asked for and 10 times what you ask for when Allah gives him this, and this is the lowest, lowest, lowest lowest person of gender, can you imagine? And we're going to come to this head when we talk about the blessings of gender. Can you imagine the man is asking everything his imagination can
have, and Allah even reminds him of things he doesn't remember. And he asked those things. Then Allah says you will have this and 10 times this amount. And this is the lowest person of Jannah. What do you think is the middle? What do you think is the highest of the high you see this?
Ceman asked Allah for what his brains could understand what he had termina for us for the highest categories of Jana, What did our Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam say? Fee her murder? I know what we do, don't send me what a hotter Allah Kobe Bashar in that category of Jana is that which eyes have never seen, ears have never heard, and minds have never conceived, we do not even know words cannot describe what is in that category of gender, this lowest of the low, he asked what his mind could know. He asked the pleasures of this world and what he knew, and Allah gave it to him and 10 times, and that's great. But imagine the highest level. Words cannot even describe minds cannot even
conceive. And that's the level that I want. And all of us should want. We come to the end of our time will continue in sha Allah to Allah next week, Belinda heeta Allah and with this Insha Allah, we ask Allah azza wa jal to give us life and to protect us and our loved ones. We're living in very difficult times here.
A number of people that I know have already been affected by the virus make dua for them. May Allah azza wa jal cured them and all of our loved ones and families that are sick May Allah subhanaw taala grant all of us Shiva, may Allah subhana wa Tada grant a half here in our deen and duniya May Allah subhana wa Taala only cause us to return to him once he is pleased with us. We ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to make the best days of her life the last days of her life we ask Allah subhana wa Taala that he only takes us when we say the Kadima of la ilaha illa Allah Muhammad Rasul Allah, we ask Allah subhana wa Taala for for those who Isla which is our Kula who later on Islamic parameter Allah hey
