Euro allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam saying,
rarely the deeds are based on intentions and rarely every person
is rewarded according to what he intends. For mankind, for mankind
adhere to Hui Allahu Allah Sudhi. So whoever makes his Hijra for
Allah and His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, then, truly His
Hijra and his migration is towards Allah and His Messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam and whoever has his hijra, or makes it easy is
Hijra towards the Dunia for the worldly benefit, or he makes a
hedgehog in order to marry a woman for Hijra to hula Maha Riley, then
his Hijra is towards what he migrated to meaning that he will
not be rewarded and he cannot be rewarded the same reward as the
other person who makes the Hijra for the sake of Allah will Jelani
with the Quran.
So last week, we went through this hadith and we mentioned that when
it comes to the hijra, there are certain rules and regulations
within the Sharia. And we also mentioned the hijra, is one of the
greatest good deeds
Hegira is such a good deed such a great good deed that our NABI
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has said in the Niger Delta honeymoon
Makana Kabila,
the person who makes the Hegira because of the Hegira Allah
subhanahu wata, Allah forgives all of his previous all of his past
sins, all of the sins are forgiven, because of the hijra,
and the only few things by which your previous deeds or all of your
previous sins are forgiven. One of them is to accept Islam, the
person who is not a Muslim, and being a non Muslim, he has
committed so many sins, many, many evil acts. And now he wants to
enter into the fold of Islam and by saying I shadow Allah ilaha
illallah wa shadow no Muhammad Rasool Allah from his tongue, and
believing in his heart, he enters into the fold of Islam as soon as
he accepts Islam, all of his previous sins are forgiven. So he
starts with new clean sheet
completely, so there is no sin on him. So all of his previous all of
previous sins are forgiven. The other good deeds, by which the
previous sins are forgiven is the Toba and the repentance. When you
repent to Allah subhanahu wa taala all of your previous sins are
forgiven. And you start with a clean slate completely. And the
third one is the Hijra. When you make the Hegira for the sake of
Allah subhanho wa Taala then Allah will generally Quran forgives all
of your previous sins. And because the Hijra is one of the greatest
good deeds, it must be as for as it is a case for any good deed, it
must be solely and purely for the sake of Allah subhanahu wata
either the person should not be making Hegira for any thing else,
or for any worldly gain. It must be solely for the sake of Allah
gonna generally crop. What does Hegira mean? The lexical or
linguistic meaning of the word Hegira is to abandon or to give
up.
And the scholars have said that Hegira
or the term hijra, in the Sharia is used in three different ways.
The first one is the hijab, that is common term, that you migrate
from one place to another place. And the as a term within the
Sharia, it means that you leave the place of Kufa the place or the
country or the region where you cannot practice your religion. You
cannot practice your religion you cannot assemble it. You cannot
establish Salah you cannot offer your Salah you cannot pay the car,
you cannot travel for Hajj, you cannot fast, basic. When
fundamentals of Islam cannot be established. Then you have to make
Hijra then in this case, you have to leave that place you have to
leave their country and go to another place where you can play
practice your religion. And you can establish these pillars of
Islam, this shy of Islam, the symbols of Islam.
So this is the hijab.
And it is made from one place from Donald Cooper from the place where
there is no Islam, to the place where there is Islam, from the
place where you cannot practice your religion to the place where
you can freely practice your religion.
And it must be solely and purely for the sake of Allah. And in
order to practice the religion of Islam, and when you make the
intention to leave that place and to migrate to another place where
you think that you can practice Islam for that aid. It must be
solely and purely for the sake of Allah and you should not be
looking for any worldly gain for any worldly benefit. If this is
your intention, then your Hijra is not going to be the Cherie hijra,
is not going to be the Hegira that is accepted by Allah subhanahu wa
taala or the Hegira for which you can be rewarded.
So this is very important to understand. Nowadays, we find many
people living in the West and living particularly in the UK,
they talk about the concept of Hijra.
Many of them say that I want to make Hijrah to Saudi Arabia. I
want to make Hijra to one of the Middle Eastern countries. I want
to make Hijra to Somalia. I want to make my Hegira to Pakistan or
to any other country.
Why do you want to make the Hijra because I cannot practice the
religion of Islam here the way I can practice over there. What is
your criterion of practicing the religion? Can you not establish
your Salah here?
Do you not have the freedom to establish your five daily prayers?
Is there any kind of any kind of restriction on you that you cannot
offer your daily salah? Is there any kind of restriction on you
that you cannot attend the Masjid? Is there any any kind of
restriction on you that you cannot establish your five daily prayers
in congregation in the masjid?
Is there is there any restriction that you cannot attend the masjid
for Salah to Juma
Do you not have the freedom to offer Salah to eat open? Can you
not pay us a car while living in the UK? Can you now observe the
fasting of the month of Ramadan while living in the UK? Can you
not travel for Hajj and Umrah while living in the UK? The answer
would be no I don't have any any of these decisions. I can freely
practice my religion, then what is the purpose of making Nigeria? The
purpose is that here in this country there is too much tax.
There is too much tax, the education system is corrupt. I
have this problem and that problem. Okay, if this is a
problem, then it has nothing to do with you practicing the religion
of Islam, even when it comes to giving the therapy to your
children.
When it comes to giving the therapy here to your children, how
can you differentiate between the UK between this country and any
other country?
When it comes to giving the tarbiyah to your children, it is
all down to your efforts as parents, you have to take your
time out and spend some time with your children. Advise them, give
them tarbiyah
it does not mean that the families that live in other countries that
are known as the Muslim countries, that their children are always
pious and righteous. And they always give good therapy to your
children because of the environment. This is not true.
This is not the case. If you truly want to see the condition of the
Muslim countries, so called Muslim countries, go over there.
And and it's also you should bear in mind, this is very important to
understand that the Hegira is usually made or primarily it is
made from the place where you cannot practice the religion.
Mainly Donald Cofer, the place where there is no Islam.
And you go to the place where is Islam? When you say there is Islam
or you can you go to the country of Islam, it means that it that
you can you can witness and you can see Islam everywhere.
That is called Dar Al Islam.
Darussalam Dar Al Islam is not the place where the vast majority of
the population is Muslim and you cannot call it simply dar Islam,
that Islam is where usually and Riba is prohibited. Darul Islam is
where there is no shirk, that Islam is where people practice the
religion of Islam. And they follow the Quran and the Sunnah of
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Not only Islam is where
everyone's rights are given.
Darwin, Islam is where alcohol is prohibited.
Which country in this world? In this age and time you can point
out and you can say it is that only Islam? Any of the Middle
Eastern countries, Pakistan, Somalia, any other country? Which
country? Can you actually say that it is Dowdle, Islam,
that you can see that Islam in the houses you can see that Islam in
the courts, you can see that in Islam in the street, you can see
that only Islam in the marketplaces, whereas Islam
you cannot call Darwin Islam a country where the vast majority of
the people or the or the or the population is just Muslims. Yes,
you can say that place is probably better or practicing the religion
is probably easier than practicing the religion in any other country,
where there is a minority of the Muslims.
And then in this case, you cannot say then, according to the
scholars, then you cannot say that make higit are from Darren Kufa to
Dar Al Islam or making Hegira from a country where they are not
Muslim. All Muslims are in minority to make the Hijra to the
country where Muslims are in majority. According to a scholar,
this is just most the habits recommended. But he's again it is
recommended for those who cannot, who cannot practice their
religion, the way they want to practice their religion in the
Donald Cofer. But if they can hold the freedom, then talking about
the Hegira or saying I want to make hijra, then it is it is not
correct. Or then it means that you need to study more about the
Hijra. Look at the seed of Rasulullah sallallahu. Ellison.
The scholars have even said based on the evidence from the seer of
Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam. That Hijra does not necessarily
needs to be made to a place where there is Islam or dark Islam
Hegira can be made from the aquifer to dharma Kufa
from one place where there is gopher to another place, where is
also Kufa but in first place you cannot practice their religion but
in other places you can practice. So, main point is or the main
reason for making Hijra must be the practice of the religion, this
is the core, this is the fundamental, this is the this is
the basic and this is the main reason.
So if you cannot practice your religion in in a place or in a
country, then definitely you should try your best to make the
Hijra to another country where there is Islam and where you have
freedom to practice your religion.
Why is this? This is because we know from the seed of Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam there during the life of the Prophet
salallahu Alaihe Salam. The first Hegira was made from McHale Makara
Rama to abbacy nia
McHale Makara Rama there was no Islam in McHale, mocha Rama and
there was no Islam in India as well. But the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam sent some of his companions from Makkah to me Senia
from Donald Kufa to Dar El Khufu. Why? Because practicing the
religion in McHale, mocha Rama was not possible. Whereas practicing
the religion in Abyssinia which was at that time Christian
country, it was possible.
And then later, the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam when he
made the hijab for McCarl, mocha Rama to Madina, Munawwara was
Medina Dar Al Islam. It was not that Islam Radha, when Prophet
sallallahu Sallam arrived in Madina, Munawwara then it's
changed who Dar Al Islam, that Islam. In fact, Madina Munawwara
was not called Medina rather it was known as yesterday.
As yesterday, B is one of the names of Madina Munawwara so
before the arrival of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam in Madina,
Munawwara and before changing in Medina to Dar Al Islam, it was
known as yesterday. So
It was not. According to these terms. Madina Munawwara was not
Dar Al Islam, rather the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam arrived in
yesterday. And then he established Islam, where he Salah when Islam
was supported by the people of Medina by the anzar, who spotted
the Prophet salallahu Salam. In fact, they offered the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the sport when he Salah Salem was in
in McAllen, mocha Rama, and then he Salah Salem made up his mind by
the permission of Allah who generally Quran when he left
McHale, mocha Rama anyway, he went to Madina Munawwara and he and
he's also unsettled.
Also another point that we need to bear in mind when we when we talk
about the topic of hijra, that once you have left a country a
place a region,
because of the reason that you cannot practice your religion in
that region. And you have gone to another place where you think you
can practice your religion better, then it is not right for you to
come back to that country again until or unless the situation in
that country has completely changed and it has gone better
then the country that we have migrated to. So for example, if
you left the UK
based on the reason that you cannot practice your religion, you
think that you cannot practice whereas the reality is that you
have complete freedom to practice your religion, everything you can
do here.
So you left this country and you went to Pakistan, for example. And
you said that I have made hijra, okay. You try your best to settle
in Pakistan, but you were not able so and then few years later you
decide to come back to the UK. What type of feature is this? This
not Aedra has UK changed according to you understanding UK may have
gone worse.
Then why are you coming back then?
You initially thought that you guys are covering Pakistan is that
Islam
and you have migrated you have made from the UK to Pakistan. Now
you have to spend your life there. Look at the Sunnah of Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi salam, when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam migrated from McCallum, Oklahoma to Madina Munawwara even
after the conquest of McHale, mocha Rama, he Salah who has never
returned back.
He stayed there.
And this was one of the reasons that he saw us Allah migrated from
a karma karma to Madina Munawwara although the other reason was that
he initially had promised the people of Medina that if Allah
subhanahu wa taala ever allows him to victory, He will never forsake
them and he will he will never leave them.
So he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam fulfill his promise. But when we
study the seer of the companions, you want Allah here and image
nine, we come to know that they they also remained in Madina
Munawwara
and some of them who came back to McHale, mocha Rama who settled in
Mocha mocha Rama later. It was based on the fact that maca was
Tao Islam. So that maca had become Darwin Islam completely. That is
why some of the companions they returned back to McHale, mocha
Rama.
So once you have less So the principle is that we understand
from the Ceylon from the hadith of Rasulullah Salallahu Salam, that
once you have left a region, a country or place
because of the fact or your understanding that you cannot
practice the religion, and you migrate it to another place where
you thought you can practice the religion better, then you should
not come back to the country until and unless the situation in that
country has changed. And now that country is better for you to
practice the religion of Islam better than the situation in which
you left the country.
So when we consider all these aspects of the Hegira then you
will come to realize that will hamdulillah living in the UK, you
are blessed. And you must be thankful to Allah subhanahu wa
taala and there is no doubt out of all the European countries and
throughout the West, the UK is the best place for the Muslims. The
freedom that we have here Alhamdulillah you cannot find in
any other European country, the way the Muslims practice their
religion here. They cannot practice the same way in any of
the European countries and even some of the so called Muslim
countries. The freedom that we have in this country you cannot
find in many
In many Muslim countries, your basic rights your basic rights are
not given to you in those who call Muslim countries, and here you
have all the rights, you have completely equal right as the
Nationals and the natives of this country.
So then
what is the point? And what is the need of making Hijra?
Yes, if you want to settle in another country, based on other
reasons, or due to other factors, then it's up to you then at least
do not call it Hydra. Do not misuse or abuse the word Hydra.
Hydra is a
the Hijra is a good deed is a concept within Islam. You need to
first and foremost understand it properly. Because you you do not
understand and you want to make Hegira and heat and you think you
are going to be rewarded. And how many people I have seen here
talking about the hijra, I want to make Hegira to this country and
that country. Why are you not making them? I'm just I'm just
looking for a job. As soon as it gets the job, I will make the hit
Subhanallah what type of Hijra is this?
Is this the way of Rasulullah Salah Salah did the Prophet
salallahu alayhi salam look for his job, or he did he saw Sanlam
as any of his Companions Look for the job and work in Madina
Munawwara before they would migrate to Madina Munawwara before
they leave McHale Mokona
so if you want to leave the UK, in order to avoid the tax, or if you
want to leave the UK because of any other reason, or you want to
get a better job in one of the Middle Eastern countries, in
Malaysia, in Singapore, in China, in Japan or any or in any other
country, then do so. There's no prohibition. As long as you can
practice the as long as you can practice your religion there
freely, you can do it. But don't try to justify your personal
reasons as to Hegira and don't try to say that I'm going to make
Hegira for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa taala this not the
hijab for the sake of Allah, rather, this is the hijab for the
job. This is the Hijra for worldly gain. And you should bear in mind
this hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam that many
of the scholars have quoted right at the beginning of their books,
including Imam and now will be Ramallah, in his book The other
side of him from incarnate Regera to Hooli duniya you Cebu ha are we
Marathi Indian Kealoha fajita to hula Maha Riley, who our makes the
Hegira for this dunya for this worldly gain for worldly benefit.
Or he makes the Hijra in order to marry a woman and the woman that
he wants to marry. She has stipulated that you cannot marry
me until and unless you leave that country and you come to my country
and she lives in the in a country that is known as a Muslim country,
then you leave your country for this purpose then you're here is
for marriage. You Hijra is not for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa
Tada. We does not necessarily mean that you are going to be sinful.
This does not mean that you are going to be sinful. But it does
not also mean that you are going to be rewarded for that. Because
your Hegira is for worldly benefit. So this is first type of
Hijra hedgerow tool mechanic's tool makan? You leave a place and
you migrate from one place to another place in order to practice
the religion of Allah azza wa jal economic in order to establish the
religion of Allah subhanho wa Taala The second type of Hegira as
that is known as Hegira gulaman hedgeye As he said he did our
means to abandon to give up the Hijra of the actions and the deeds
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam has said in a hadith that
is reported by Imam Al Bukhari that Allah Allah muslim woman
Salim al Muslim Munna, melissani he via the the true Muslim is the
one from whose hand and from whose tongue other Muslims are saved.
And then he Salah Salam said well, Mohammed zero man Hotjar Amana
Hala, who and who are pseudo, the true Mahajan. The real Mahajan is
the one who makes the Hijra. Oh, who abandons and gives up every
single sin and evil act from which Allah and His Messenger sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam have prohibited so if you get
have sins. If you give up bad deeds if you give up evil acts,
then it is also Hijra. And the prophets Allah Salam said, while
Mahajan, the person who makes the Hegira is called Mahajan. The true
Maharaja is the one who makes the hero of the actions, who makes the
hero of his deeds, who makes the Hijra of his acts, and his and and
he makes the hero of his conduct. He bettered. He improves his
o'clock. He gives up the sin.
Then he's a true Mahajan. So this is a second type of video. The
third one is the Hijra of mill.
Mill, the person who does something is called Amil,
the Hijra of the meaning you abandon the person who commits a
sin.
Why, because his sin may affect you.
Or you abandon the person because of his evil acts, you stay away
from him. And it is permissible,
it is permissible only. If you want to protect yourself, you want
to safeguard your own Iman and your test city and you love your
character, your reputation. If this is the case, then it is fine
for you to leave the person who is committing evil acts. So you
refrain from you abandon him, you leave him,
then in this case, it is it is permissible. Another way of living
the person who commits evil acts is that you believe it or you know
that his actions are not going to affect you. But you really want
him to give up those bad deeds and those sins. In this case, you can
again, abandon him, you can cut ties with him only with the
condition that if you think that you're abandoning him and you're
cutting ties with him, will affect him, so that he may understand he
may take lessons and he gives up that evil act, and he stays with
you. In this case, you can
in this with this particular condition, you can abandon the
person you can refrain from him you can stay away from him for few
days for few weeks, and even for few months. Only if you know,
looking at his circumstances, and looking at your position with him.
You think and you believe that if you abandon him, if you cut ties
with him,
if you cut links with him, it will affect him to the extent that he
will give up his bad deeds and he will give up his evil apps, then
in this case, you can abandon him otherwise, otherwise it is not
permissible. It is not permissible to abandon another Muslim as
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Leia Hello men in a
year Jorah AHA who focus allottee Laya it is not permissible it is
not halal for a Muslim, to abandon to make the Hijra. Hegira means to
abandon to give up to leave, it is not permissible for a Muslim
person to leave his Muslim brother for more than three nights for
more than three days.
Okay, if your intention is not to give him a lessons or teach him
lessons, so that he can give up his evil acts, and your intention
is also not to protect your own image and you know that his evil
acts are not affecting your iman or yo Allah, then in this case,
you should not abandon him rather, you stay in contact with him in
order to continue advising him so that he one day may accept you
advice and Allah subhanahu wa gyla may guide him that he may come
back to the straight path again. So they are the three types of
Fujairah and we talked about the first one which is helical makan
Hegira off one place to another place, the second one is Hegira to
Lommel, the Hijra of the actions and the deeds and the third one is
Hijra to the Amen. Okay. And we talked about all these types of
hijra, and they are evidence for that for all of them in the hadith
of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam so we conclude with this
and we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala that Allah will challenge you
crumb enables us to understand the religion of Allah subhanahu wata
Allah may Allah subhanahu wa taala give us the correct understanding
of his religion may
Allah subhanho wa Taala give us your feet and ability to follow
the footsteps of our NABI sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and
may Allah subhanahu wa taala allow us to keep our intentions pure and
sincere for his sake in the house Amir and caribou Mooji will
