00:00:00 --> 00:00:04
			The next question is from Hamza from India.
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:11
			Allah says in the Quran that he is not unjust in the least degree.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:21
			But I feel it is injustice to non Muslims who are more righteous than many Muslims to end up in
*.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:28
			And also it is unjust to put Muslims in heaven. We're not as righteous as some non Muslims.
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			This is a very important question.
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:39
			But I'm glad asked that Allah subhanho wa Taala is not unjust in the least degree.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:01:02
			And it is unjust to put non Muslims who are more righteous into the * and unjust for the Muslim
who are not righteous to put in heaven. What the brother is referring to is a verse in the Quran
from Surah Nisa, chapter number four was number 40. where Allah says in the Quran, that Allah is
nowhere and just in the least degree that means Allah is the most just
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:09
			he will not do even a minute fraction of injustice.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:19
			a fair question is concerned that why non Muslims who do righteous deeds will be put into Hellfire
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:25
			and Muslims were unrighteous? Why should they be put in heaven?
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:31
			We have to understand that what is the meaning of the word righteousness and who is the richest
person
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:37
			for me, to make you understand, I'll give you a free example.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			Number one,
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			if
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			there are
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:50
			total 199 US dollars
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:57
			divided into 64 notes.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:12
			The 54 notes, if you total all the value of the 64 notes, it is $199 and distribute the notes to
shoot people. Some get 10 notes, some get 20 notes, some get 30 notes,
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			some get less some get more.
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:28
			A normal person who may not be aware of the notes and the value will say whoever gets the most
notes, number of notes is the richest person No, it's not like that. We have to see what is the
value of each note
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:34
			in the 54 notes, one note is $100.
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			One note is of $20.
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:50
			The $100 note is for a person who believes that there is only one God and that God has got no
partners. And Prophet Muhammad is the Messenger
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			of the Almighty God.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			The number $20 bill
		
00:02:55 --> 00:03:00
			US dollar is the person who prays five times a day.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:39
			Then there's 110 dollar note that is true five notes $10 note is for a person who gives a catchy
stare at $5 note is the person who first and final note is a person goes for the remaining to all of
you put together his $140 the remaining $59 or one $1 bill all put together the 64 notes, the 59
notes out of one $1 so just because somebody has 13 notes, or 30 bills, doesn't make him rich. If he
had 30 bills of one $1 he has only a value of $30
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:55
			the person who has $100 is more richer than all the other notes put together. If all the other 63
notes put together will make it only $99 but one bill of $100 more valuable than 63 bills.
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:58
			all put together a $99
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:04
			that Verizon the Creator, he has put this formula
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:48
			unique clearly mentioned in the Quran in Surah Nisa, chapter number four Muslim 48 and certainly
such as number 416, that Allah will forgive anything if he believes it, but he will never forgive
the sin of ship. For anyone who has committed ship has strayed far away had done the most hideous
sin. That means the biggest sin in Islam according to our Creator, Almighty God, Allah subhanaw
taala is doing shit in the associated partner with him is the biggest thing. And the best thing
person can do is believe in only one God and believe that there is no one worthy of worship, but
Almighty God and Prophet Muhammad is the messenger for mighty God. So he's the Creator. He said the
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:51
			rule we are the people who undergo an examination.
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:56
			Let me give an example. That in certain tests,
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			there are certain compulsory question which you
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:26
			should pass separately, like I did a medical examination in MBBS. Besides the theory papers, we
advise our most orals, every student had to pass separately my views separately, he may score 100,
out of 100, in theory paper, but in the Viber was, if he fails, he fails the examination. I cannot
argue this is a reset. So, the compulsory paper
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:55
			in Islam is tied. You should believe in one God and worship in menorah no one else and the first
pillar, that I bear witness that there is no God but Allah and Prophet Muhammad is the Messenger of
Allah if compulsory, if you fail in this, you fail in the test, you may get as many other marks in
the other question, this is number one. And let me give you an example. That if there is a question
paper,
		
00:05:56 --> 00:06:04
			the total marks of all the answers in the question paper, it totals to 1000 marks.
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:25
			One question is compulsory, most important, which carry 501 marks and the minimum passing marks the
minimum passing for this paper is 501. If you get anything less than 501 out of 1000 that means you
have to get more than 50% marks.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:56
			You have to get minimum 501. If you get anything less than 501 out of 1000. You fail like the
mission. That means this one main question, which is compulsory. It is to hit it in the first pillar
of Islam, that there's no one worthy of worship except Almighty God. And Prophet Muhammad the
messenger for Mighty God, this is number one which carry 501 marks, then number two is Salah, maybe
carrying 100 marks,
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:57
			then
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:27
			would be giving charity Zakat may be 50 marks, then fasting in the month of Ramadan, that maybe 20
bucks, then going for that maybe 10 months, another maybe 100 hundreds of more question to mark one
month, three months, one one month. But if you get zero marks in the major question
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:33
			of the heat of the first pillar of Islam, you failed the examination.
		
00:07:34 --> 00:08:12
			So this is a test for the hereafter. Allah says in the Quran in surah mulk chapter number 16 was
number two, Allah the collateral Mata will have its allow escalated that the life to test which have
is good indeed. So Allah subhana wa Taala has sent us in this world as a test for the era. And the
rules and regulations have we laid down in the Quran. In the last and final revelation, he kept on
sending revelations the moment it got corrupted he sent a new revelation. He sent a new messenger
the moment it again got corrupted he sent a new message and a new revelation. There were many
revelations sent on the face of the earth by knowing when only for Torah the poor engine and the
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:25
			horror and the last and final revelation is the glorious Cora and the last and final messenger is
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. So you may be thinking this non Muslim he's very honest.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:29
			What is the mark for honesty? Okay, maybe five marks
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:46
			or 1000 Mark five marks he very charitable. Okay maybe 10 marks is very kind for 10 marks, but out
of 1000 months, the five marks 10 months five months 10 mark to mark one mark will not make it past
the examination.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:54
			You may be thinking okay doing 10 good deeds or 20 good deeds. But if that one person who had the
$100 bill,
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:35
			who passes in the viver was the compulsory question. The one who gets full marks in forehead. He is
the person who ensured to pass the best would be a Muslim who believed in though he offers salah and
also this charity is a car also fast. Does the HUD is good to the neighbors love people is onif who
does not drive does not have alcohol does not gamble, who helps others help the neighbors loves his
parents. And for fun and for the best. Maybe you'll get 90% marks, maybe you'll get more than 900
out of 1000.
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:45
			There may be other Muslims who may not be honest, but yet believe in the heat. But because they
believe in the heat. They've got the $100 bill.
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:59
			They're passed in the House. They have what 501 marks already in that one compulsory important
question. So logically, who would be higher in the examination, a person who got 500
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:09
			And when marks are a person who's got five five Mark maybe 10 times 50 marks 100 months 200 marks.
So what you have to understand, we have to understand what is righteousness.
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:52
			And Allah says in the Quran in Surah Surah chapter number 49 verse number 13 yeah you are nasil
inocula. Conoco means acronym own Sava Jana shoe Mahwah, kabyle Allah tada 14 Nakamoto in the left
column in the lower limb, Kirby or humankind, we have created you from a single pair of male and
female and have divided you into nations and tribes so that you may recognize each other not that
you may despise each other, and the most honored in the sight of Allah is the person who has
tequila, the criteria for judgment in the sight of Allah subhanaw taala. It's not *. It's not
wealth. It's not color. It's not race. It is not gender. It is taqwa. It is righteousness, it is God
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:54
			consciousness. It is piety.
		
00:10:55 --> 00:11:41
			So as you rightly said, who is IHS? Imagine our Creator, Almighty God has given us this life. Who's
given us the clothing, the food, clothing, food besides the point how many of us, thank Allah for
the water he has given us three. How many of us thank Allah for the air if we don't get for few
minutes, we will die. How many of us so imagine if we are going to associate partners with the
creator was given us all the facilities in life, who's given us the body was given a health who was
given a food to eat or giveness cloth, and then you say you're righteous, the biggest thing you can
do is Associate partners within your worship somebody is besides the Creator. So what you have to
		
00:11:41 --> 00:12:00
			understand what is righteousness is very important. You have to understand that very clearly. If you
understand this, what is righteousness, you will come to know and you will realize that who should
get more marks. So if you know this, then inshallah you will never object to the justice of Allah
subhanaw taala Hope that answers the question.
