One of the distinguishing
features of the day of judgment is that
people will try
to pull down other individuals. They will try
to criminalize other individuals.
There will be a few who will intercede,
but the vast majority
will endeavor
to criminalize
others in front of
subhanahu wa ta'ala. Amongst them are other Ummas.
And here we see a great virtue of
this Ummah because of the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam. The message of Allah sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam said, this Ummah is the last
one, but the reckoning of this Ummah will
be the first. The message of Allah sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam said, this Ummah
will be standing
on a high plain
overlooking everybody else and bearing witness for others.
Imagine a Nabi alayhis salatu salam
who called his people for 950
years. On the day of judgment, his people
will come. After
950
years of dawah, Nua Alaihi Wasallam says himself,
I call my people
morning,
evening,
afternoon,
they didn't accept only
80 individuals accepted his dua.
Come the day of judgment,
when his people will be asked? Didn't Nuh
convey the message? They will say, no. He
didn't convey the message. Then Nuh will
be asked, did you convey the message? He
will say, yes. So what's your witness upon
this?
He will say my witness upon this is
the Ummah of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
Us, this Ummah. So they will come to
us
and they will say to us,
convey the message and we will say yes.
And they will say, how do you know
you one day? We will say because Nabi
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam told us and Nabi Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam spoke the truth. And the Quran
mentioned that Nuh Alaihi Wasallam
called the people for
950
years and this is where the verse of
the Quran Quran is mentioned. You are an
Ummah, which is a modern nation. You will
be witnesses upon humanity
and the message of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
will be a witness upon the rest of
humanity and he'll be witness upon you. One
day the Messenger of Allah asked Abdullah bin
Masood to recite the Quran for him. Abdullah
bin Masood said oh, Masood I
recite the Quran to
you. Although the Quran has been revealed upon
you, the Messenger of Allah said I want
to listen to the Quran
and Abdullah ibn Masood radiAllahu was reciting the
Quran, reciting the Quran and he comes to
the verses which mention that Messenger of Allah
will be a witness on humanity and the
Prophet
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said, oh, Abdullah
stop, oh stop. And the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam began to cry on that day. Where
you sit now
watching this video, what you did an hour
ago, what you did last week, what you
did from the moment that you were born,
everything
will bear witness upon you. Man will speak,
the earth will say, oh Allah, this person
prayed upon me, this person did dhikr upon
me, this person did good upon me, and
another person conversely would be that person who
did evil.
You sit in the darknesses of your house
and you think nobody is watching you. On
that day
everything around you will bear witness either for
you or against you. Man
will turn around
to this object,
to the earth. And so why did you
do that for? The earth will say
because your lord,
my lord,
commanded me. And when Allah commands
you, then there's nothing that you can do.
There are some people
who think they're exceptionally sharp. You know, they
think they can get out of any situation.
They will be individuals
on the day of judgment that they will
try to put a fast one on Allah
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
There will be 1 person, the Messenger of
Allah told his story and he began to
laugh. He said there will be 1 person,
he will stand in front of Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala and Allah will bring witness. He
will say, Allah accept the witness beside myself
against myself. So Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will
put a seal upon his mouth.
Today we will put a seal upon your
mouth. These hands will speak. These feet will
speak.
After
the seal is removed from the mouth of
this individual, this man will turn to his
limbs and he will say, why did you
give witness against me? Don't you know I'm
destroyed and you're destroyed?
The limbs will say it was the command
of Allah. What could we do?
