Indeed,
all praise
and blame. Blessings to Allah, Subhanahu wa and Salawat, and to
sing upon our beautiful, blessed Prophet, Muhammad, sallAllahu,
alayhi wa sallam, JazakAllah, Jazza, I am again glad to see
everybody tuned in. It's been a long time, and Alhamdulillah, you
know, as they say, you know, distant makes the love much more
stronger. So alhamdulillah, I'm glad that we are back and we're
continuing with the best of stories. And that is the story and
the life of the Muhammad, sallAllahu, alaihi wasallam, the
last time we ended up speaking about the Nava Ali shalam As a
youngster, as a young man, going out, finding his way, standing on
his own feet, be able to take his own weight, working at a young
age. I mean, at 12 years old, the Rabb Ali shasam goes out and he
starts to work. He becomes a shepherd. And through the life of
the Muhammad Sallallahu, alayhi wa sallam, there were so many things
that happened, but one of the things that I want to mention to
all of our viewers is that after the Muhammad Sallallahu, alaihi
wasallam became a young man, all that he did was always to beta
himself, and that's why we know that before the nabua, before
revelation, before the rabbis Islam, received that the
revelation from Allah in the form of Quran, we know that the
rabbalisham was known to his people as a sadhu Qul Amin, the
most honest, the most trustworthy person. And to be honest with you
guys, for me, in the time that we are living today. And that is what
we need. You know, the Ramadan started with what adab and akhlaq.
He started with character and models. The community knew him
according to his character, according to his models. And that
is what's missing today. We need to go back to our roots. We need
to show and start off with the Navi started off with, and that is
the adab and the akhlaq that was shown to all of mankind. So Ramadi
Shola, being a youngster working, started to trade. He went into
trading. We know that. We also spoke about the story in naval
summit with his uncle, Abu Talib. And they left in order to trade,
make business. And because the rabali Shi was such a man that
everybody knew was honest, he was trustworthy, he caught the
attention of who Sayyida Khadija meant, who is Sayyida Khadija mean
to do? We know that she's one of the mothers of the Muhammad Ali,
the mothers of the many the true believers. We know that she's the
first wife of the rabali shasam. But have you ever really gone into
detail to know who is this woman, this woman that changed the life
of the rava is just some the woman that will be mentioned up until
the day of Tia was SubhanAllah. This is the status of Khadija bin
tualid Khadijah bint hawali. She was known as Khadija bin tu hawil,
Bin Tera Ibn Assad, Ibn Abdul
ausai al qurashi, for carabini Amir. She was known also that she
came from the tribe of Ahmir, and we know that she connects with the
Rabb Ali shasam in his lineage and her lineage by Ibn Abdul Arza Ibn
Abdul arzad ibn kusay also is within the lineage of the Rab
Muhammad Sallallahu, alaihi wasallam. And at that time, we
knew that Quraysh, and we still know, according to Islam, it is
permissible to get married, maybe from your second cousin, your
cousin, and so on again. Though, maybe in our time today, we find
there's a lot of diseases, a lot of things. So the medical will
discourage it, but it is permissible. The Nama is just
Salam made a promise. Say na Ali Raja Allah and got married to
Fatima radi Allah and so forth. So Khadijah been to hoyli. She also
connects with the Ramadi Islam through his lineage, but that's
his great, great grandfather. That is where they meet. So they're
very distant. And she came a trifle called Bani ahimir, and it
is mentioned by Ibn athir. And now I cannot imra there to show off in
wamer, in uswatan, that she was known as a woman that had wealth,
that had honor, that had dignity. She wasn't just any type of woman.
No, she's one of the most powerful and influential women that were
living at that time and all the men that long to be with Khadija.
Why? Because she had beauty as well. She was considered one of
the most beautiful women in the city, and at that time, she used
to, at least request, had men that were working under her, and they
would go out and they would trade for her. They would do business
for her, and so forth.
Khadija behroid, and hears about the Muhammad, sallAllahu sallam,
she has a story about him, that he is so honest, that he is
trustworthy, and all of this thing. And it's not a surprise,
because Rama is a.
He was known as the man's most trust and most honest. But also
say the Aisha Raja Lana, when she was asked what was the character
and the morals of the Muhammad Sallallahu, alasallam, she said,
can look Quran that his ethicist models was the Quran itself, in in
righteousness, in purity, all of these beautiful things. This was
seen in the Rabbi shasam Before he received the Numbuh. This is the
miracle Allah subhanaw taala protected him. Allah granted him
all of his before he received the message. That's why it was asked
one day the rail is your son. Was asked, Mata, Mata Kana bidaya to
amrich, what was the first, the beginning of your, your your time,
and at least, when did the message start? And the Rama Ali sila said,
kun tu Nabi Yan wa Ada mukhana. I was a prophet when Nabi Adam Ali
Salam was created. So we see that the status of the Rabb Ali sila
was known before everything else. Jamaat al Muslimeen, so said a
Khadija Raja Lana. She hears about the Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam,
and she's curious. So she wants to see if this man is really
original. You know, is he everything that people speaks
about him, or is a person that maybe, in the in the secret does
things differently? So then she asks a person to approach him, and
she gives him a Proposition. Says, Look, your work for me. Trade for
me my business, and I will give you in return, I will, I will, I
will, I'll employ you. Ram that that way that she then employs the
rabali shasam, and he starts to work for her. And it is mentioned
that as soon as she employed the rabadi shastaram to work for her,
out of nowhere, her business has started to flourish even more.
Everything that the rabali shastam brought, there was barakah in it,
huh? She says that she's never witnessed a business foolish so
much since the Navarre shasam came and worked for her. And the
beautiful part of this all is that she would always send her one of
the boys that used to work with her, they used to work for her.
And he used to follow the rabali shasam, be with the rabadi Shas
not to watch him, but just to be in the to a system you need help.
And he would then watch every move that a Muhammad, sallAllahu,
alaihi wasallam, would do and he would make so he sees the
character, he sees the models, he sees the ethics. He sees this
beauty of a man that is not just beautiful outside, but it's
beautiful inside. You know, they say in Abu Asmaa, he was given
half of the beauty of the world, that rasa was given all the
beauty, but not outside alone, but inside as well, that heart was
pure, that heart was good, that heart was full of khair and
barakah. So he goes out. He trades with the money he works for, say,
the Khadijah betrayal, Raja, Allah, anha and the boy. Then
starts to observe. And once he sees this man, is such a man that
has all of these things, these principles, within place. He then
starts to speak about him, to who to Khadijah. And the Khadijah,
Raja lahana, starts to find this attraction to the rabbalish Islam,
not because of looks, not because of character, because nowadays,
sometimes we we just look at looks, you know, we just look for
what is beautiful on the outside, the outside, but we need to look
what is in the heart. And this is what Khadija, rajalan Hadid, she
saw the beauty that was within the Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wasallam. So what did she do next? She then sent her friend, one of
her friends, her name was Sumayya Sumayya. She sent Sumaya. And she
then asked and tell sulay Sumayya, go to the Radis. He was not yet
known as the NABI at that time, but go to Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wasallam and ask him for his hand in marriage. At, say, the
Khadija wants to get married to the name Muhammad Sallallahu,
alaihi wasallam. And he accepts. And we need to know and the
Navarre is when he got married to say, the Khadija, he was not the
first husband. Say the Khadija, Raja Lana got married twice before
the name Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So she sends a
friend to go and ask rabadi. And at that time, Sayyida Khadija was
40 years old, and the rabadi was only 25
imagine 2540 years old. That's where they say age is about a
number. You know, it depends on the person, depends on the
character, and so forth. And as the rabadi accepts the marriage of
or the proposal of Sayyida, Khadija, Allah,
immediately the life of the ramay changes. You know, that is what a
woman can do. She she can change a man's life. She can give him that
strength, she can give him that power, she can give him that
support, if she's sincere. And one of the lessons that I want to
speak about concerning this whole story of how the navalisation
metabolism, how he worked for how he got married to him. I say that
there's some lessons that we can extract from this. They say that
the first one, Al katho will miss you. See, a
person needs to no matter what state you are. Would you think you
are? You have to go out and you have to work for yourself. You
have to go out and strive. You cannot just sit and think
everything is going to come to you. No effort must be placed in,
you know, one of the great ulama, they said that the effort is
required, but the result make tawakkul upon Allah, trust in
Allah, as long as you place that effort in. So they say, yeah, that
the Naba Ali Shahram from such a young age all the way to.
25 and after the rail system made sure that he always progressed, he
always went forward from taking care of sheep, now he's busy with
business. So this is important to always improve yourself. Remember,
you want to become the best that you can be, and that is what this
Deen wants. This Deen does not want you to be on the same place
at the same time every single day. No, the rabbit shasam said, a
person that does exactly the same thing every single day, this
person is at a loss. Why? Because there's no there's no effort,
there's no progress. The person is becoming better than what he was
yesterday. So we see that right from the rabali shasam, progress
upon progress. Landau canal, home in Al adwatil IQ. Another thing
also, they say that if you look at it, the Navarre system, he was
successful, definitely successful, in the business of Sayyida Khadija
Raja lanha, because it attracted her attention. And they say this
is one of the lessons that we can expect, that the Naba Ali shasam,
if he wanted to be rich, he could not be rich. Why? Because he had
the skills, he had, the means, he had the tool, he had the mindset
in order to become a very successful businessman. This was
rather than a Malaysia some because he was smart, he was
clever, he was sharp. That was the character of the Rama salaam alai
wa sallam. But what did the Ramayana? He said, I love to be
the poor, and I will be raised with the poor. Why that Jamaat
Russman? Because the Rab arises, some knows that this dunya, this
world, is not the world that you build upon. You invest for your
akhirah. You build that your your destination that you're going to
say, that's why the rava is a Samsung Hadith
unfit dunya can make a haribon Sabine be on this dunya, as if
you're a stranger or a traveler. What does a stranger do? A
stranger, he's in a gathering. He doesn't know anybody. What's he
going to do? He's just going to do what he has to do. And he's gone.
You know a person that is traveling, you go to a bus stop,
you go to a petrol station, you're going to fill up, you're going to
get some snacks, you're going to leave. You go on. You don't stay
there, you don't build the house there. You don't do all of these
things. Why? Because, you know, this is not my final destination.
I am still on my way to my final destination, and that was the Nava
Ali shalam. If he wanted, he could have been rich. He could have been
a king. He could have been wealthy, rich. But the Nava Alisa
Ram's objective was not this. Dunya, no. His objective was the
akhira, even before he received the Namu, even before he received
the Ramu from Allah, subhana wa taala. Another listener, looking
extra is,
have we taken a job? Do it right? You see, when the NAMA Islam was
employed by Sayyida Khadija, he wasn't looking at anything that
he's going to gain from it. No, he was given a job, a task. He did it
sincerely, with perfection, and he was rewarded. And that is the most
important thing. Is when we take on certain things, do it with
sincerity. We need to do our things with sincerity. And we also
have to show that I lost the taqwa and Allah subhanahu wa because if
a person does that, the result will be beautiful. And that's why
the Rabb Ali shasam said, humayah, takila ya jala, Huma Raja, wazukum
and hai says a person that has a Taqwa that consciousness of God,
the consciousness of Allah, subhana wa taala, in whatever you
do, whether you're an engineer, whether you're mechanic, whether
you're a doctor, whether you're a teacher, anything on this dunya,
whatever you do if you are conscious of God, God, Allah
subhana wa Taala will give you away. He will open that door for
you, a door that you never even expected. You know, sometimes in
life it happens, you know, we just feel that we're in this most
difficult situation, but when we show that steadfast steadness and
and we show that firmness and that patience and perseverance, Allah
subhanahu wa taala opens that door for us. Why? Because he said he
will do it. He says, Well, my Yatta, Allah, yaja, Allahu Aja,
where zukum haitullah said, and he will grant him sustenance, rizq,
from places you would never think so. The lesson is, do it
correctly. Do it for the right reasons. Do it because you're
trying to not please just creation, no, but you're doing it
to please Allah, subhana wa taala, and that's why I remember Shafi
Easter's about what a niya, because the name Hamas, Salama,
Ali wasallam said in Namal, Amala binyat, well in nama liquid man,
our famine candidate, you see Bucha Oh Imran kiahara to Eli
mahajara In Aha, the rasam says that, indeed, all actions is built
upon intentions. Your actions is definitely built upon intentions.
That's what's so important for us, that whatever we do always refresh
and renew your intention. Why am I doing this? What is the reason for
me doing this? Why am I getting up every morning to go to work? Why
am I taking care of my family? Why am I striving to become a better
person? These are the questions that we ask ourselves. But the
most important is, what is your intention for? Who are you doing
it? And that's why dari, he says, one of the great honor man, oh
yeah, Allah, Subhanahu, wa taala. He says that don't do things.
To be married to. There is a Haq. There is a right by the Sharia
that Allah, subhana wa Taala had granted for the woman. And look at
Sayyida Khadija, Raja Lana. She chose who she wants to get married
to. And her choice Ya Allah, was the list of choices. She could
never have gone wrong, because he chose the master of mankind. And
there is a Muhammad, sallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam, Shah taala, we
will continue next time Inshallah, continue speaking about, say the
Khadijah continue speaking about the nabali sum, because when we
start speaking about the Nabhi is endless, Allah and the love and
the affection we feel when we think of the Nabhi that only
increases. So we Allah taala, grant that our love for the nabali
sum increases and that we can learn from these stories, lessons
that we implemented it in our lives. Zach Mullah, khewalda Ali
