00:00:18
welcome home guys it's good to see you
00:00:20
as
00:00:21
usual ask Allah that he makes this
00:00:24
Gathering a blessed a blessed Gathering
00:00:26
and that he unites us just as he United
00:00:28
us today that he unites us the highest
00:00:30
rank
00:00:33
of as usual before we start and commence
00:00:36
with the lesson we do a quick recap um
00:00:40
last week we covered um from
00:00:45
verse when Allah gives the example of
00:00:49
this dun and he Compares it to the plant
00:00:52
and how short of a life and how how its
00:00:55
life is so short um likewise the dun
00:01:00
its life is very temporary and Allah he
00:01:07
mentions the plant it will die and the
00:01:10
wind will blow it left and right and
00:01:13
then we briefly spoke about the
00:01:14
adornment of this dun and how Allah
00:01:17
mentioned that wealth and children and
00:01:19
women and having Treasures from this
00:01:21
world gold and silver are all from the
00:01:23
adornment of this world and that what's
00:01:27
more beneficial and what lasts longer
00:01:30
is and we mentioned what was the
00:01:34
Everlasting Good Deeds what did we
00:01:37
mention five prayers mentioned the five
00:01:40
da prayers that's one
00:01:45
interpretation he forgot
00:01:48
okay who what else other than
00:01:52
Muhammad the the remembrance of Allah
00:01:55
subhana tala saying Subhan Allah
00:01:57
alhamdulillah that is more valuable
00:02:00
then Gathering wealth and and and saving
00:02:03
up and all that kind of stuff uh then we
00:02:05
we then we spoke about uh the day of
00:02:08
judgment and how Allah will blow away
00:02:11
the
00:02:11
mountains and we will make the earth
00:02:14
flat and he will resurrect us and it
00:02:17
will be said to those who used to deny
00:02:19
the day of
00:02:23
Resurrection you have come to us you
00:02:26
have returned back to us just as the way
00:02:28
you have been created from day one then
00:02:30
we spoke about uh how their records will
00:02:33
be placed in front of them and they will
00:02:35
be very very anxious about that which is
00:02:37
in it and they will say after reading
00:02:41
it what is the matter with this
00:02:46
book it doesn't leave anything minor or
00:02:49
major except that it documents it then
00:02:51
we spoke about andan and we gave a a
00:02:54
brief um history about who Shan is and
00:02:58
Allah mentioned how El was arrogant to
00:03:01
postrate to
00:03:04
Adam and how he caused Adam Alam to be
00:03:08
kicked out of Jenna and how he believed
00:03:10
to be better than our father Adam and
00:03:14
then Allah
00:03:17
said are you going to take and his
00:03:20
offspring after knowing who he is as a
00:03:23
master that you follow and you obey when
00:03:25
he says go left and go
00:03:27
right uh that we spoke about
00:03:31
um and how the the criminals when they
00:03:34
see the Hellfire being dragged and we
00:03:36
said the the the the Hellfire has 70,000
00:03:39
ropes each rope is being dragged by
00:03:42
70,000 angels and when they witness that
00:03:46
they will know for a fact that they will
00:03:47
enter the Hellfire and that end of
00:03:49
itself is a punishment from Allah before
00:03:52
they enter the the major punishment then
00:03:54
we spoke about how the Quran has so many
00:03:57
benefits and so many lessons within it
00:04:00
and the human being is the most
00:04:04
argumentative and then we touched we
00:04:07
touched upon briefly the culture of the
00:04:09
qur and how they were and Allah said
00:04:12
nothing will stop them to believe the
00:04:15
Quran and and the prophet sallallahu
00:04:16
alaihi wasallam except if their two
00:04:19
requests was accepted what was those two
00:04:23
requests they will not
00:04:25
believe except if two things were two
00:04:28
wishes were were fulfilled what were
00:04:31
those two
00:04:33
wishes now they said that until we meet
00:04:37
the fate and see the Fate that those
00:04:40
Nations that came before us they faced
00:04:42
until we see it for our ownselves we
00:04:44
won't believe
00:04:46
and and until we confront the
00:04:49
punishments ourselves then we will
00:04:51
believe and then we mentioned how The
00:04:54
Messengers and the prophets they had two
00:04:55
main roles they were U they used they
00:04:58
would give Glad Tidings and they would
00:05:00
give warnings and the disbelievers they
00:05:03
would dispute the prophet sallallah
00:05:04
alaihi debate with the prophet sallah
00:05:05
alaihi not to attain the truth but
00:05:08
rather to find loopholes and try to um
00:05:12
prove that the religion is false um and
00:05:15
then we spoke about how oppressive is
00:05:18
the one who when he is reminded by the
00:05:21
verses of Allah and he turns
00:05:24
away Allah punishes him with three
00:05:27
things what are those three things
00:05:30
when he is reminded and he turns away
00:05:33
from the reminder there are three
00:05:34
punishments for that
00:05:36
individual number one Allah puts a veil
00:05:39
over his heart number
00:05:41
two they will they're
00:05:45
unable they will be unable to understand
00:05:48
and hear so they will also be deaf
00:05:51
that's the second one and the
00:05:54
third the third point the third uh
00:05:57
punishment is even if the prophet
00:05:59
sallallahu alaihi wasallam tried to
00:06:01
guide
00:06:03
them they would never be
00:06:05
guided in this week we will go through
00:06:09
the story of
00:06:11
M and we will try to draw some lessons
00:06:14
and reflect upon those verses and before
00:06:17
that
00:06:18
insh will recite those verses
00:06:40

00:12:42
he
00:12:52
says Allah said regarding him remember
00:12:55
when mam said to his young his assistant
00:13:00
who was
00:13:01
called he was also a prophet from Allah
00:13:04
subhah
00:13:06
waala when M said
00:13:13
to I will not give up until I reach the
00:13:17
junction of the two
00:13:18
Seas what is the significance about this
00:13:21
two this this the junction of these two
00:13:23
Seas bukari IM bukari mentions and he
00:13:26
reports a Hadith reported by
00:13:30
that the prophet sallallahu alai
00:13:31
wasallam said explaining this story M
00:13:34
and he mentions that
00:13:37
M he stood up one day and he delivered a
00:13:41
and whilst he was delivering the to Ben
00:13:45
a man stood up and he asked him yeah mus
00:13:50
who is the most knowledgeable person on
00:13:52
the face of the Earth and M he responded
00:13:55
and he said I am the most knowledgeable
00:13:57
person on the face of the Earth and
00:13:59
Allah rebuked him for that because he
00:14:02
didn't attribute that knowledge to Allah
00:14:04
subhanahu wa taala and then he informed
00:14:08
himat he informed M that there is a man
00:14:12
who is more knowledgeable than you so M
00:14:14
he responded and he said Ya Allah where
00:14:17
can I find this man or how can I reach
00:14:20
this man so Allah informed him and he
00:14:23
said to him head towards the junction of
00:14:25
the two seas and make sure you take a
00:14:27
fish with you and when you lose that
00:14:30
fish that's when you're going to meet or
00:14:33
that's where you're going to meet this
00:14:34
individual this man and this man as you
00:14:37
all know his name
00:14:38
is so with that context keep whilst
00:14:42
keeping that context in mind Allah he
00:14:46
mentions he said
00:14:52
to I will not give up until I reach the
00:14:55
junction of the two Seas you can already
00:14:58
see the desire he had to seek knowledge
00:15:01
he traveled miles and miles to seek
00:15:04
knowledge and to meet this this man so
00:15:07
that he can benefit from him and he
00:15:10
said even if it takes or even if it
00:15:14
takes me an entire year or a very long
00:15:16
time to reach this
00:15:18
destination in the Arabic language could
00:15:20
mean a year some Scholars mentioned that
00:15:23
it means 80 years 70 years in any case
00:15:26
it means a long time even if it takes me
00:15:29
a long time to reach this destination I
00:15:32
will travel that distance to benefit
00:15:35
from who can tell me another place in
00:15:38
the Quran that Allah
00:15:42
mentions I'll give you guys a
00:15:51
hint they will remain in it for a very
00:15:54
very long time and this is from the same
00:15:56
root word so he said I'll I'll I'll
00:15:58
travel
00:15:59
even if it takes me a long time to meet
00:16:02
this man and to to reach that
00:16:03
destination I will do
00:16:07
so when they reached this destination
00:16:11
the junction of the two
00:16:14
Seas they forgot the
00:16:20
fish and the fish it made its way into
00:16:23
the ocean uh slipping away then Allah he
00:16:28
said
00:16:31
when they passed this
00:16:35
destination M said to the young young
00:16:39
assistant he said to
00:16:41
him bring us our
00:16:47
meal we found that this trip was a very
00:16:50
tiring trip let's sit down let's
00:16:54
eat so what happened was they sat down
00:16:57
they ate and they took a nap and they
00:16:59
slept for a short while and that was
00:17:01
when they lost the
00:17:05
fish then the story continues and he
00:17:11
said when they continued with their
00:17:15
Journey completely forgot to remind M
00:17:18
that he lost the the fish so he said to
00:17:23
him do you remember when we were
00:17:26
resting by the by The Rock and we took a
00:17:28
nap
00:17:32
that was when I forgot the
00:17:38
fish and nothing made me forget except
00:17:40
the Shan it was the Shan who made me
00:17:43
forget to remind you he knew that he
00:17:46
forgot the he knew that he lost the fish
00:17:49
but he forgot to remind mam because this
00:17:52
was a very significant
00:17:56
moment and the Fish made its way into
00:17:59
the sea
00:18:02
miraculously then says that is exactly
00:18:05
what I was looking
00:18:08
for that was what I was looking for
00:18:11
because Allah told him when you when you
00:18:14
reached the junction of the two seas and
00:18:16
you lose the fish that's when you're
00:18:19
going to meet
00:18:25
who so they began to retrace back in
00:18:28
their footsteps
00:18:29
they went back to find where did they
00:18:32
lose the fish number one and the
00:18:33
junction of the two Seas when they went
00:18:35
back what
00:18:39
happened they found a servant from our
00:18:45
servants this servant we have given him
00:18:47
and granted him Mercy from
00:18:51
us and we had enlightened him with
00:18:54
knowledge from our own who is this
00:18:56
servant that they that they finally met
00:19:00
just as Allah told him you're going to
00:19:02
meet Al by the junction of the two seas
00:19:05
and where you lost the the the fish so
00:19:08
they found Al as soon as they found M he
00:19:14
introduces himself and he says I am the
00:19:17
prophet of Allah Mam and he did not
00:19:20
waste any time he straight got to the
00:19:23
point and he
00:19:24
said said to him
00:19:28
[Music]
00:19:31
may I follow you may I accompany you so
00:19:34
that perhaps I can benefit and learn
00:19:36
from that which Allah subhana wa tala
00:19:38
taught
00:19:40
you then what did he respond with he
00:19:43
[Music]
00:19:45
said you will not be able to be patient
00:19:47
with me you will not be able to Bear the
00:19:50
knowledge that I have you're going to
00:19:52
experience things that you have never
00:19:54
experienced you will not be patient with
00:19:56
me
00:20:00
oh you will not be able to be patient
00:20:03
with
00:20:07
me and how are you oh mus going to be
00:20:10
patient with me when the things that you
00:20:13
will see is outside the realm of your
00:20:15
knowledge is beyond what you've
00:20:18
encountered and as we all know Allah
00:20:21
blessed with knowledge that he didn't
00:20:23
bless with m
00:20:29
how are you going to be patient with me
00:20:32
when you're going to see and witness
00:20:33
things that that are Beyond much beyond
00:20:36
your realm of
00:20:38
knowledge then M he responded and he
00:20:45
said in you will find me patient you
00:20:49
will find me that I'll be patient with
00:20:50
you in this
00:20:54
journey and I will not I will not
00:20:57
disobey you in any order
00:20:59
if you command me anything I will not
00:21:01
disobey you if you tell me something to
00:21:04
do I will obey you just I just want to
00:21:06
benefit from
00:21:07
you so then
00:21:10
they then he put up a condition he said
00:21:13
if you want to accompany me and follow
00:21:16
me in this journey you have to meet one
00:21:18
condition if you meet this condition
00:21:20
then inshallah we can embark on this
00:21:21
journey together and you can benefit
00:21:23
from me he
00:21:24
said if you decide to follow me and if
00:21:27
you decide to accompany me in this
00:21:33
journey do not ask me
00:21:36
anything that is the only condition he
00:21:39
had he said if you're going to embark on
00:21:42
this journey with me I only have one
00:21:43
condition whilst we're traveling don't
00:21:45
ask me any questions whilst we're on the
00:21:47
journey don't ask me for the explanation
00:21:50
of
00:21:53
anything until I myself decide to
00:21:56
explain and clarify it from for myself
00:21:59
so don't ask me any questions don't ask
00:22:01
me the explanation of anything just come
00:22:05
with me and benefit and
00:22:09
learn then they began their Journey they
00:22:13
began to embark on the journey and this
00:22:15
journey is the Journey of where he will
00:22:17
benefit
00:22:21
from until they came to a point where
00:22:25
they were boarding a ship and it was was
00:22:28
said that the captain of this ship he
00:22:31
recognized Al was someone who was known
00:22:34
for knowledge so what happens when you
00:22:36
see someone of knowledge the captain
00:22:38
what did he do he allowed him to board
00:22:40
the ship without paying for anything
00:22:43
free ticket for him and M both of them
00:22:47
boarded the the ship without having to
00:22:49
pay for the
00:22:52
fair so they boarded the the ship and
00:22:57
the first thing that
00:22:59
does which is so interesting the first
00:23:01
thing he
00:23:02
does he damages it and he makes a hole
00:23:06
in the
00:23:07
ship and Mussa can't fathom what he's
00:23:10
witnessing what he's seeing and he can't
00:23:12
hold it and the first thing that M does
00:23:15
he
00:23:18
says did you damage this ocean this this
00:23:22
the ship did you dig a hole in the
00:23:26
ship whilst knowing that could cause
00:23:29
them to
00:23:30
drown and they just they allowed you to
00:23:34
board the ship for free they honored you
00:23:37
they respected you and the first thing
00:23:39
that you do is dig a hole in the
00:23:47
ship you have done a terrible
00:23:51
thing so he already failed the first the
00:23:54
condition that the only condition that
00:23:57
set was don't ask me for anything do not
00:23:59
comment on anything he failed from the
00:24:02
first
00:24:03
moment so he responded and he said to
00:24:09
him did I not tell you
00:24:14
oh that you will not be able to be
00:24:16
patient with
00:24:17
me so M he raises his hands and he
00:24:24
says he said don't hold me accountable
00:24:27
for indeed I have forgotten excuse me my
00:24:31
bad I have
00:24:34
forgotten and don't be hard on me
00:24:37
forgive me pardon me this
00:24:39
time the prophet sallallahu alaihi
00:24:41
wasallam mentioned explaining this story
00:24:43
he said the first
00:24:45
one because there's going to be three
00:24:47
examples the first one was out of
00:24:49
forgetfulness mam genuinely forgot the
00:24:52
condition are you guys following me
00:24:58
then they continued he excused them he
00:25:01
said no problem they continued to embark
00:25:04
on the
00:25:07
journey until he met a young boy a boy
00:25:13
that was playing with his friends a
00:25:15
young
00:25:17
boy so what did was he grabbed the child
00:25:21
the boy and he killed him he murdered
00:25:23
him right before right in front of mam
00:25:27
some of the scholars they mentioned he
00:25:28
killed him with a stone and you can
00:25:31
understand
00:25:32
how how gruesome that image could be he
00:25:37
murdered him right before
00:25:39
Mam and M he couldn't fath it he
00:25:43
couldn't keep
00:25:44
quiet and he
00:25:49
said did you just murder a young soul
00:25:53
for no reason
00:25:58
you have come with a major major mistake
00:26:01
you have done a horrible thing and this
00:26:04
time it wasn't out of forgetfulness he
00:26:07
knew very well what he was
00:26:10
saying so reminded him again he
00:26:14
said oh did I not tell you did I not
00:26:19
inform you that you will not be able to
00:26:21
be patient with
00:26:23
me then mam he says this time he doesn't
00:26:27
excuse himself he doesn't say I forgot
00:26:30
he doesn't say my bad he
00:26:38
says if I ever ask you anything after
00:26:41
this very
00:26:43
moment don't accompany me leave me I
00:26:47
give you the green light to cut this
00:26:49
journey
00:26:52
short if I ask you any other questions
00:26:55
after this
00:26:56
moment do not accompany
00:27:04
me I have given you enough excuses I've
00:27:07
given you many excuses the first one I
00:27:09
was out of forgetfulness and this time I
00:27:11
couldn't contain myself he just
00:27:13
witnessed a young boy getting killed
00:27:16
right in front of
00:27:18
him they continued and gave him another
00:27:22
excuse and he pardoned
00:27:26
him they continued on this journey until
00:27:29
they approached this Village a group of
00:27:36
people they both asked this this group
00:27:39
of people and this Village they
00:27:41
requested food they asked from them to
00:27:44
be fed as they were
00:27:52
hungry they refused to host them so they
00:27:56
rejected to feed M and a prophet and a
00:28:01
scholar and the first thing that Al does
00:28:04
after getting refused or after getting
00:28:07
rejected he sees a wall that is almost
00:28:10
about to
00:28:14
collapse he sees a wall that is almost
00:28:17
about to
00:28:18
collapse and then he destroys that wall
00:28:22
and he rebuilds it once
00:28:25
again and mam is with witnessing this
00:28:29
and M doesn't rebuke him or anything he
00:28:31
comments on the issue what does he
00:28:36
say he said if you want you could charge
00:28:40
for this this service that you just
00:28:42
provided for this Village of building
00:28:45
this wall and reconstructing it you can
00:28:47
get paid especially since they never fed
00:28:50
us especially since they rejected to
00:28:53
host us you have more right to request
00:28:55
to get paid cuz if someone hosts you
00:28:58
welcomes you gives you food and then you
00:29:01
help him chances are that you're not
00:29:03
going to request to get to get paid but
00:29:05
imagine they refuse to feed
00:29:08
them and then what he does is he
00:29:11
constructs and he builds an entire wall
00:29:13
for them and he says to
00:29:17
him if you want you should be able to
00:29:20
you should be able to charge for
00:29:22
this and then says
00:29:28
this is the time when you and I are
00:29:30
going to part
00:29:35
ways now that we're going to part ways
00:29:37
before we part ways let me
00:29:40
explain the things that you didn't
00:29:42
understand and the things that you
00:29:43
couldn't bear patient you couldn't
00:29:46
withstand and understand the wisdoms
00:29:48
behind
00:29:52
it he starts with the first
00:29:55
incident which was digging the hole and
00:29:58
damaging the
00:30:01
ship he says as for the the
00:30:08
ship this ship it belonged to a group of
00:30:13
poor people and they used to work in the
00:30:17
sea so I wanted to uh make it or damage
00:30:22
it for a reason there was a wisdom why I
00:30:24
wanted to damage this the ship
00:30:30
the reason why I wanted to damage this
00:30:34
this ship was because there was a an
00:30:36
oppressive King and what he used to do
00:30:39
was he would find and look for ships
00:30:43
that are of good good condition any good
00:30:46
ship that he sees he will steal it so
00:30:49
when he sees that this ship is damaged
00:30:51
what's going to happen he's going to
00:30:53
leave it and because these young men are
00:30:56
Mas this is all all that they possess
00:30:59
this is their
00:31:01
livelihood so that's the first
00:31:03
explanation for the first
00:31:07
incident okay before I go I continue the
00:31:10
the next verse a short tangent what is
00:31:14
the difference
00:31:16
between and
00:31:18
a as you all know from the categories of
00:31:21
zakah that we give Zak to Allah
00:31:24
mentioned
00:31:29
and he differentiated
00:31:30
them we give
00:31:33
our
00:31:35
to
00:31:36
and what is the difference between a and
00:31:40
a
00:31:47
m
00:31:53
mamed I'm Bing people out calling people
00:31:57
out
00:32:00
innocent no
00:32:03
no no no m is not the Somali explanation
00:32:06
of
00:32:08
M Somali the explanation of M is someone
00:32:11
who's innocent and
00:32:16
ABD okay what about the
00:32:24
M what's the difference then
00:32:28
very
00:32:34
close how about the
00:32:38
M
00:32:49
okay very close but not quite
00:33:01
so they both need
00:33:13
okay we finally found the answer so the
00:33:17
difference between and msk has some
00:33:21
possession but it's not sufficient it's
00:33:23
not sufficient for his livelihood as for
00:33:26
the doesn't have anything and what is
00:33:28
the evidence for
00:33:30
that the evidence for the
00:33:32
differentiation between the and the
00:33:34
M how do we know the msk has some
00:33:37
possession and and the F
00:33:38
doesn't we just mention in the verse
00:33:41
right
00:33:47
now as for the ship it belonged to so
00:33:51
they had possession they owned an entire
00:33:53
ship maybe that wasn't sufficient but
00:33:57
the F doesn't have anything doesn't have
00:34:06
anything as for the the boy that was
00:34:09
murdered that was killed he mentioned
00:34:12
that his father his parents were people
00:34:15
who were righteous they were Believers
00:34:17
of Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala and that we
00:34:19
feared that that the love that they had
00:34:22
the the intense love that they had for
00:34:23
their child would cause them to um
00:34:27
become n Muslims because that child
00:34:30
wasn't a Muslim the intense love that
00:34:32
they had for that child we feared that
00:34:35
they may leave Islam hence why we kill
00:34:38
this
00:34:41
child then we hope that Allah replaces
00:34:45
this child with another child that is
00:34:48
more virtuous than him and that is more
00:34:50
caring than this child
00:35:00
and we learn one thing from just the two
00:35:02
incident that we just mentioned so
00:35:04
far the prophet sallallahu alaihi
00:35:06
wasallam told us in
00:35:12
theith Allah doesn't decree upon the
00:35:16
believer anything except that it is good
00:35:19
for him even if he thinks from their
00:35:21
parent this is terrible this is
00:35:23
oppressive Allah anything that he
00:35:26
decrees upon his servants just know that
00:35:28
it is good we may not understand what it
00:35:30
is we may not see it what it is we may
00:35:33
not see the wisdom behind it but Allah
00:35:36
subhanahu wa taala knows and just like M
00:35:40
never understood the wisdoms Behind
00:35:43
These
00:35:44
incidents clarified it to him because
00:35:47
Allah informed the wisdoms Behind these
00:35:51
three incidents
00:35:59
as for the last incident which was
00:36:03
what the wall the wall that was about to
00:36:07
collapse and what did do he
00:36:10
reconstructed the wall what was the
00:36:12
wisdom behind reconstructing the wall
00:36:15
and not charging anything for it the
00:36:17
wisdom was Allah he
00:36:21
said this wall it belonged to two uh
00:36:24
orphans
00:36:29
and beneath and just below the wall was
00:36:32
a treasure a treasure of gold that their
00:36:35
parents kind of hid in under that wall
00:36:38
and because he was almost about to
00:36:40
collapse what Al wanted to do was he
00:36:43
wanted to protect their wealth because
00:36:45
if their wealth gets exposed and their
00:36:46
orphans both their parents passed away
00:36:49
what will happen chances are someone
00:36:51
will steal that treasure so he
00:36:54
reconstructed that wall so that he may
00:36:56
preserve their
00:36:59
wealth and Allah he said and their and
00:37:02
their parents were both righteous what
00:37:05
is the significance of mentioning or
00:37:07
what is the the reason why Allah
00:37:09
mentioned the rightness the
00:37:11
righteousness of those two young uh
00:37:14
orphans parents what is the link between
00:37:16
the righteousness of the parents and the
00:37:18
two orphans in the wall why did Allah
00:37:24
mentioned and by the way their parents
00:37:26
were righteous
00:37:29
the scholars mentioned a few
00:37:32
benefits what's the
00:37:38
link because their parents were
00:37:41
righteous Allah protected their children
00:37:44
and their wealth and this is some of the
00:37:46
benefits that we can derive from being
00:37:49
righteous your family your children will
00:37:52
be the first to benefit from your
00:37:54
righteousness you being firm the first
00:37:56
people that will benefit from it will be
00:37:58
your
00:38:04
family what he wanted was he wanted for
00:38:07
their money to be preserved up until
00:38:10
they reach the age of puberty and they
00:38:11
reach of age and then they can take out
00:38:16
their wealth and benefit
00:38:18
themselves and this was a mercy from
00:38:20
Allah
00:38:25
subh and then he says to m says to M
00:38:28
this is the explanation of the things
00:38:31
that you didn't understand and the
00:38:32
things that you couldn't bear patient
00:38:35
what's fascinating about these three
00:38:36
incidents
00:38:39
is he mentioned in a and he
00:38:44
said may Allah have mercy upon us and
00:38:48
M if only he didn't
00:38:54
say if only he never said after the
00:38:58
second
00:38:59
incident if I won't ask you anything and
00:39:02
if I was to ask you any other questions
00:39:05
you can end this uh this relationship
00:39:08
and this journey very short if he never
00:39:11
said that said perhaps we would have
00:39:14
leared so many other major or miraculous
00:39:18
uh incidents it was only three that we
00:39:20
benefited from but it could have been a
00:39:22
lot more uh in we will stop here but
00:39:26
before we conclude we will mention some
00:39:28
of the
00:39:29
Practical benefits that we can derive
00:39:31
from this lesson number one it is the
00:39:35
virtue of seeking knowledge as you all
00:39:37
know the prophet sallallahu alaihi
00:39:38
wasallam mentioned in
00:39:42
aith whoever Treads a path and whoever
00:39:45
takes a path to seek beneficial
00:39:50
knowledge Allah will make a path easier
00:39:53
for him to Jen and we know that some of
00:39:56
the Sal they would travel for example
00:39:58
jab abdah he was known he traveled an
00:40:01
entire month in the desert because there
00:40:04
was no ples there was no cars he
00:40:07
traveled an entire month an entire month
00:40:09
only to hear one Hadith of the Prophet
00:40:12
sallallahu alaihi wasallam from
00:40:14
aah one of the by the name of
00:40:17
abdah one single Hadith and today
00:40:21
alhamdulillah we have access to
00:40:23
knowledge the click of our finger in the
00:40:26
internet YouTube you'll find any series
00:40:29
any beneficial knowledge that you would
00:40:31
want you'll find it with a click of a
00:40:33
finger some of the S they would
00:40:36
travel months and months to acquire this
00:40:39
knowledge and we find that we we we
00:40:41
learn today that mam although he was a
00:40:44
prophet of Allah he was still humble
00:40:47
enough to travel to seek knowledge and
00:40:50
he traveled all the way um the junction
00:40:54
of the two C's some of the scholars they
00:40:56
mentioned this location was was in Tanja
00:40:58
in Morocco some said the junction of the
00:41:00
two Seas was near Persia
00:41:03
Iran so seeking knowledge is one of the
00:41:06
best acts of of of of the best acts that
00:41:10
you can do to get closer to Allah
00:41:11
subhanahu wa ta'ala one of the best
00:41:13
recommended
00:41:15
acts second benefit that we can learn
00:41:17
from this portion is beneficial
00:41:20
knowledge is that which leads you to
00:41:23
knowing right from wrong and then acting
00:41:26
upon that just knowing for the sake of
00:41:28
knowing is not beneficial in fact it can
00:41:31
be harmful it can become a testament and
00:41:34
a testimony against you on the day of
00:41:36
judgment where do we derive from this
00:41:39
which verse do we derive from this from
00:41:41
the incident from this from the story
00:41:43
Allah he
00:41:50
said he never said teach me any
00:41:53
knowledge he said teach me knowledge
00:41:55
that I can learn right right from wrong
00:41:57
and then I can act upon it that is the
00:41:59
beneficial knowledge there are many
00:42:01
people who know Halal andam who know
00:42:04
right from wrong but the difference
00:42:06
between beneficial knowledge and that
00:42:08
which is not beneficial is acting upon
00:42:11
it the third point and third practical
00:42:14
benefit we can derive from this story is
00:42:17
when something neg negative happens to
00:42:20
you don't attribute it to Allah
00:42:22
subhanahu wa ta'ala when something
00:42:25
negative happens to you do not attribute
00:42:27
to Allah subhah wa taala but rather
00:42:29
attributed to thean or to yourself and
00:42:32
we learned from this
00:42:34
when he forgot to remind M when they
00:42:38
lost the fish he
00:42:42
says it was thean who made me forget
00:42:46
although he knows that it was Allah
00:42:47
subhanahu wa ta'ala who decreed
00:42:49
everything who decree the entire story
00:42:52
to happen this way but he didn't say
00:42:55
Allah made me forget
00:42:58
like when we're asked sometimes why did
00:43:00
you miss F you say Allah made me sleep
00:43:03
or Allah put me to sleep don't ever
00:43:06
attribute anything negative to Allah
00:43:08
subhanahu wa taala it's um it's Su ad
00:43:12
it's lack of ethicus and lack of to
00:43:15
attribute that which is negative to
00:43:16
Allah subhah wa
00:43:18
tala the the fourth benefit that we
00:43:21
learn is try your best to be righteous
00:43:24
because your children and your family
00:43:26
will be the first to benefit from from
00:43:28
your righteousness and we learned from
00:43:31
this when Allah he
00:43:35
mentioned Allah preserved the wealth of
00:43:37
the two orphans only because their
00:43:39
parents were righteous and perhaps if
00:43:41
they weren't righteous Allah subhah wa
00:43:43
tala maybe would he have preserved their
00:43:46
wealth Allah we also know that on the
00:43:49
day of judgment when the righteous
00:43:51
people enter Jenna they will complain to
00:43:54
Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala and they will
00:43:56
say we are missing our families and we
00:43:59
will not reach the Pinnacle of pleasure
00:44:03
if it wasn't for our families being
00:44:05
around us so because Allah subhanahu wa
00:44:09
ta'ala loves them so much he will
00:44:11
Elevate the ranks of their families and
00:44:13
he will bring them to their level maybe
00:44:16
they weren't deserving of that but
00:44:17
because of that righteous son or that
00:44:20
righteous father the entire family
00:44:23
benefits from this the sixth benefit in
00:44:27
with this we will
00:44:28
conclude sorry the fifth the fifth
00:44:31
benefit assume the best and never rush
00:44:34
to conclusions assume the best or and
00:44:37
never rush to conclusions mam was
00:44:40
mistaken the three uh incidents and he
00:44:44
judged based on what was apparent to him
00:44:48
and we learn from these the story that
00:44:51
sometimes we don't understand the wisdom
00:44:52
of something don't rush to conclusion
00:44:55
and when you see your brother or or your
00:44:57
sister doing something wrong don't ever
00:45:00
judge them or don't ever look down upon
00:45:02
them give them 70 excuses as the prophet
00:45:05
sallallahu alaihi wasallam said excuse
00:45:07
them even if you can find 70 excuse them
00:45:09
so if you find someone who if you see
00:45:12
someone if you see your your fellow
00:45:13
brother with a bottle of alcohol say to
00:45:16
yourself perhaps he just confiscated it
00:45:19
from someone if you see your Muslim
00:45:21
brother or your sister drenched with
00:45:23
alcohol say to yourself perhaps someone
00:45:27
spil it on them always have the attitude
00:45:30
of giving excuses always have the
00:45:33
benefit of the doubt give the benefit of
00:45:35
the doubt the last practical benefit and
00:45:38
inshah with this we conclude give each
00:45:41
other chances and don't rush to
00:45:43
canceling one another don't rush to cut
00:45:47
one another
00:45:48
off and we learn from this when
00:45:52
M made the first mistake and he said
00:45:58
did you dig a hole and did you damage
00:46:00
this ship whilst knowing that they're
00:46:03
going to
00:46:05
drown he made the mistake and what did
00:46:08
he say he
00:46:11
said and said I forgot excuse
00:46:18
me and do not be hard on me don't be
00:46:21
tough on me let this one slide and he
00:46:24
gave him how many chances three chances
00:46:27
some of
00:46:28
us if a friend makes one mistake one
00:46:31
minor mistake not even a major we'll cut
00:46:33
them off and we'll block them from all
00:46:35
of all social media platforms um so
00:46:39
don't rush to canceling one another give
00:46:42
each other chances forgive one another
00:46:44
be merciful to one another the prophet
00:46:46
sallallahu alaihi wasallam he
00:46:52
said the merciful ones Allah subhah
00:46:55
waala shows them Mercy Mercy Mercy
00:46:59
Mercy show Mercy to those the
00:47:03
inhabitants on the
00:47:05
earth the one who is in the heavens will
00:47:08
show you mercy and in we will conclude
00:47:11
with this and can recite the verses
