[0:04]audhu billahi min ash-shaitani rajim bismillah ar-rahman ar-rahim I begin in the

[0:11]name of the Almighty God the compassionate the merciful the one who

[0:15]has created everything in utmost perfection and may the peace and blessings

[0:21]of the Almighty God be upon his pure and beloved messenger the

[0:28]holy prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa ali and his immaculate progeny of

[0:37]the island bait especially the leader of our time the awaited savior

[0:43]and imam al-mahdi may Allah hastened his reappearance and make us all

[0:50]amongst us sincere and dedicated servants my respected brothers and sisters assalamu

[0:53]alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh in this course we will be examining the book

[1:07]of L kafi which is the most prominent and the most important

[1:16]book of hadith authored by the late mallamma muhammad eben yaqoob alcool

[1:23]a me some eleven centuries ago he spent 20 years of his

[1:29]life traveling from one city to another city from one village to

[1:38]another village compiling this important book of hadith gathering what he found

[1:47]to be authentic narrations that were attributed to the Imams of an

[1:52]idol debate and to the Holy Prophet peace be upon him it

[1:55]is by far the most important book of hadith that we have

[2:01]it is our major source when it comes to the religion of

[2:05]allah subhanho wa taala now there's a story behind this book when

[2:09]one of his fellow friends at the time approached him and he

[2:16]told him don't you see the ignorance in our era our ignorant

[2:20]people are only Muslim by name they don't understand the path of

[2:28]a debate the religion of God he asked him to write a

[2:31]book that gathers the narrations of a debate in organized chapters so

[2:37]that people can be familiar with their faith people can be familiar

[2:41]with the hadith of a little bit peace be upon them so

[2:47]he took it on himself to honor this request and it took

[2:54]him 20 years to author this book to compile this book as

[2:58]we mentioned in the course on the science of hadith this was

[3:06]a unique effort because the narrations of Angela debates were scattered around

[3:11]in the Muslim world in booklets each of the companions would write

[3:14]a book they would record the hadith they heard from the Imam

[3:18]or from another companion and you had hundreds of these books and

[3:25]booklets it was not easily accessible to the average person because you

[3:29]would have to go and collect all these manuscripts and they were

[3:33]not in any order they were disorganized so this was very difficult

[3:38]only a dedicated scholar could do something like that so what he

[3:44]did he gathered all these manuscripts and he compiled all of them

[3:48]into one book and he called it you know when he gave

[3:55]it to his friend he told him this will suffice this book

[4:01]that I give you it's sufficient it's enough and that's the meaning

[4:05]of the word coffee what does coffee mean in Arabic you know

[4:08]if someone is giving you something let's say you're invited for lunch

[4:15]and someone wants to put food on your plate and you don't

[4:17]want anymore what do you say in Arabic coffee right enough this

[4:23]book is enough for the Shia now there is also another story

[4:28]narrated some scholars of the past have narrated this but we can't

[4:32]verify whether this is accurate or not it has said that one

[4:39]of the scholars of the past he received a letter from an

[4:43]imam and Mahajan Ilana forager in which the Imam Ali Salaam supposedly

[4:51]according to this account when he was asked about the book of

[4:53]coffee is this an authentic book do you handle bait authorized this

[4:57]book the imam ali salam says and coffee caffeine lashya tina the

[5:03]book of coffee is enough for our shia so this has been

[5:06]also narrated you'll hear this expression commonly referred to but we can't

[5:12]really verify if this is something that actually happened or not it's

[5:15]possible but we can't verify it in any case it's a blessed

[5:23]book it contains the nor the light the end the knowledge of

[5:26]anti debate peace be upon them it contains over 16,000 narrations dedicated

[5:34]scholars will spend decades analyzing this book every single word every single

[5:40]sentence so the religion of allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala has preached by the

[5:46]Prophet and the Imams of any debates are found in this book

[5:49]they are truly gems each word is a gem is a treasure

[5:56]now let's begin by analyzing the first hadith in the book of

[6:00]coffee if you go to page one after the introduction in the

[6:09]foreword it is tradition 1.1.1 the first one refers to the book

[6:16]which is the book of the intellect and then the second one

[6:23]is the number for the chapter because the book of the intellect

[6:27]has several chapters and then the last one is the number of

[6:30]the hadith so this is how this was organized in this particular

[6:38]edition so tradition 1.1.1 and Collini he decides to open his book

[6:44]to start his book by using this hadith by starting with this

[6:49]hadith and he starts with the chapter on the intellect because that

[6:55]is the most significant tool the human being has the intellect the

[7:00]power of reason how do you come to know allah subhanaw taala

[7:03]through the intellect how do you distinguish good from bad through the

[7:07]intellect how do you understand the path of guidance through the intellect

[7:13]therefore everything goes back to the intellect so we see that the

[7:19]author starts with this book the book of the intellect and the

[7:23]first hadith that he lists here is a hadith that has to

[7:27]do with the intellect now before we examine the text of the

[7:31]hadith let us analyze the chain because al Collini one unique thing

[7:39]that he does in the book of coffee for every single hadith

[7:41]that he mentions he will mention a chain of narrators how did

[7:47]he receive this hadith what was his link you know between him

[7:50]and the Imam how do we know this hadith is authentic or

[7:55]not who transmitted it and Collini you know goes through this difficult

[7:58]process of listing the chain for every single hadith so he does

[8:06]this for over 16,000 hadith can imagine how much hard work and

[8:10]those times you had to do to trace each hadith through all

[8:16]the transmitters to the Imam every single hadith you investigate who's the

[8:19]source of it who's the one who transmitted it this is something

[8:24]very you know demanding something very difficult to achieve so he spent

[8:31]20 years of his life doing exactly this gathering these chains so

[8:36]we see that in the first line he says aburana abu jafar

[8:42]mohammad abu Jakub Muhammad Amin Jakub has informed us now who's talking

[8:50]here Collini himself Collini himself is saying that Muhammad had been who

[8:57]informed us now Collini he himself what's his name Mohammed Amin Jakub

[9:02]so he himself is saying that and Kalina has informed us now

[9:07]during that time when you would start a chapter this was customary

[9:16]this was normal to let the reader know that who's writing the

[9:20]book who's informing you of this hadith so it's not that al

[9:23]Cunnane is saying I'm informing myself he's just letting the reader know

[9:30]that who what's the name of the scholar who has gathered this

[9:33]hadith for us this is one possibility the second possibility is that

[9:38]these are not the words of Collini these are the words of

[9:44]his students his students who took the book of coffee from him

[9:47]they were the ones who wrote in the beginning of the book

[9:52]of al-kafi akbar anna muhammad abu Jakub and Collini has informed us

[9:57]because there's a disagreement amongst the scholars that this sentence is it

[10:01]the words of Collini himself or is it the words of his

[10:03]students their biggest possibility is that he himself wrote it and this

[10:11]was customary at the time he was just following the protocol that

[10:14]when you start a book you mentioned this phrases you know that

[10:18]so-and-so person and you refer to yourself informed us of this hadith

[10:21]and then for the following hadith she no longer does it he

[10:26]just does it at the beginning of each book so the first

[10:28]person in the hadith is who alkaline alkaline he is reliable trustworthy

[10:36]one of the greatest scholars of all time so we can trust

[10:37]him when it comes to any hadith who does he narrate this

[10:45]from he narrates he narrates it had definite attitude - hey bina

[10:49]if you follow the translation next to it he informed us that

[10:53]a number of our fellow shia among whom was Muhammad ibn al

[11:02]Ahmar a number of my teachers of my scholars have narrated this

[11:07]hadith among them is who Muhammad bin Yahia alotta material apart was

[11:14]one of the teachers of Collini teachers and hadeeth so many of

[11:18]the Hadees that Collini compiled were through this teacher the manuscripts that

[11:23]he got were through this teacher who is Muhammad a burnheal a

[11:28]part is he trustworthy trustworthy or known how do we know first

[11:35]of all because he's the teacher of Khmer Collini that in itself

[11:39]is kind of a clue that he should be trustworthy right because

[11:45]a scholar like Collini who was so careful with these hadees is

[11:49]not going to take his hide it from anyone but that is

[11:55]not a hundred percent proof we need to make sure that he

[11:59]was trustworthy maybe Collini even though muhammad been a hill a bar

[12:07]you know was his teacher that does not necessarily mean he was

[12:11]fully reliable maybe Collini for some reason he knew this hadith was

[12:18]correct and that's why he mentioned it because he himself was convinced

[12:21]that this was a correct hadith but for us this is not

[12:24]enough proof we need another proof yes brother yes that's what we're

[12:40]examining when it comes to the book of coffee it is the

[12:44]most authentic book that we have most of the hadith are reliable

[12:50]yes some hadiths in the book of coffee we cannot verify that

[12:54]they were authentic especially when it comes to issuing fatwa there are

[12:58]thousands of hadith in the book of coffee we cannot be certain

[13:01]that they are authentic so just by looking at the chain of

[13:08]narrators we cannot automatically say it's a correct hadith we need other

[13:13]clues inshallah in the course of this class and the science of

[13:16]hadith we will examine some of those clues let's say you come

[13:19]across a chain that's weak is there another way to verify the

[13:25]hadith yes there are other methods 16,000 of these have they identified

[13:28]which ones are okay so out of the 16,000 hadeeths how many

[13:33]are authentic or not it's not really possible to answer this question

[13:37]why because it depends what your methodology is in authenticating a hadith

[13:43]for example let's say I do my research and it turns out

[13:50]that Mohammed Amin Yahud Allah is reliable so automatically all the hadiths

[13:55]that he narrated I will consider authentic if the issue is with

[13:59]him only another scholar in the house and the seminary can come

[14:01]and he says you know what according to my research Mohammed ammonia

[14:05]had a thought is not reliable so to me all those hadith

[14:12]that you find him in the chain may not be reliable so

[14:16]it's really difficult to answer that question each manager each scholar a

[14:21]jurist has his own system yes there are they pretty much agree

[14:25]on the main points but you will find a lot of differences

[14:30]the way for example that a satan who you would authenticate a

[14:34]hadith is much stricter than the scholars who came before him so

[14:38]whereas his professor his teacher and naina if you've heard of him

[14:44]there was the grandmother and Najaf before I say the koi say

[14:47]there is a student and his methodology and his system he would

[14:52]authenticate most of the hadith of McAfee whereas according to the system

[14:57]of say the fluorine oh you could only you know verify six

[15:03]or seven thousand hadiths out of the sixteen thousand the others you

[15:08]have to look for other clues so it really depends on the

[15:14]methodology that we're using here so Muhammad opinion about how do we

[15:20]know your sister it's subjective but it's based on research though it's

[15:26]not something that you know these scholars are just giving their opinions

[15:30]each scholar when they present their methodology they back it up with

[15:35]proofs you know they will say why they arrived at this methodology

[15:39]so it's not really subjective it's just like any other science you

[15:44]know where you have different experts disagreeing on some minor details about

[15:48]yes to an extent it could be subjective and that's why the

[15:54]layman has to follow the most knowledgeable scholar you know when we

[15:59]speak of tech lead and emulation and following why do we say

[16:05]try to follow the most knowledgeable scholar because when you follow the

[16:11]most knowledgeable then you are confident that their methodology is the most

[16:17]accurate it's never a hundred percent accurate because we're not infallible we

[16:22]don't have the full knowledge but it's the most accurate so that's

[16:26]why it's important for us to follow the most knowledgeable eylem manager

[16:30]or scholar because they differ 'even in these methodologies now remember this

[16:36]happened you know more recent where scholars started to scrutinize the chain

[16:43]previous scholars especially during the era of that bodies they considered everything

[16:47]in the book of coffee reliable Canady is a trustworthy scholar we

[16:53]accept his methodology if he did so much research if he spent

[16:56]20 years of his life gathering all these hadith we're going to

[16:59]trust him on that because he took these hadith from trusted sources

[17:06]even if we cannot verify you know a person in the chain

[17:09]to be reliable but alkylene e because it was close to the

[17:15]time of the Imams he had clues for him those clues revealed

[17:18]that these hadiths are authentic so really throughout history most scholars they

[17:23]would not spend so much time scrutinizing the chain the Senate as

[17:28]we call it this happened more recently where scholars began to you

[17:32]know start analyzing these hadith smore and they're like you know at

[17:38]Collini I'm sure he had some clues but I don't see those

[17:40]clues and so between me and allah subhanaw taala I can only

[17:45]give fatwa based on what I see I can't depend on another

[17:51]scholar you know and the clues that they had so there is

[17:54]really a lot of differences when it comes to you know the

[17:56]science of biography is the science of men and how to authenticate

[17:59]the Senate now Muhammad ammonia Al Abbar how do we know if

[18:09]this man was reliable or not aside from him being the teacher

[18:12]of Collini you know we're 11th centuries away 12 centuries away how

[18:19]do we know there are books written by scholars who specialized in

[18:24]middle age on the science of men or the science of biographies

[18:32]the most important name in this field is Anna Joshi and Natasha

[18:36]and Najah she was an expert about the lives of the Companions

[18:41]and the narrator's he did research about them to see whether they

[18:46]were reliable or not reliable so he was truly an expert at

[18:53]Shaker was an expert and kashi was another expert so they've written

[18:58]in their books that so-and-so companion so-and-so narrator is reliable or he's

[19:03]not reliable he's a liar for example he's a narrator who forges

[19:09]hadiths so when we go to Anna Joshi we see that new

[19:12]Joshi mentions Muhammad ibn Al Abbar and he says certain ion Cathedral

[19:21]hadith he says he's reliable he's a prominent individual he's trustworthy the

[19:27]word feta in Arabic is a word that you will commonly hear

[19:30]when we're speaking about the Senate and the chain septa means trustworthy

[19:34]and reliable so here I have an expert who's nagashi he did

[19:40]his research and he is telling me that Mohammed Amin yeah Al

[19:45]Abbar is reliable so until now we don't have an issue with

[19:48]the Senate let's go to the next one and Ahmed Abney Mohammed

[19:55]Ahmed bin Mohammed was the teacher of Mohamed Al Attar when we

[19:59]go to the books of El Mirage and we see that he

[20:05]was also reliable so we don't have an issue here let's go

[20:09]to the other one Anil Hassan even Mahmoud and Hassan even my

[20:17]boob was one of the Companions of the Imam he was reliable

[20:19]as well scholars like a shaker like Anna Joshi they have witness

[20:24]that he was reliable based on the research at the time who

[20:31]is the next one Anna Allah eben Lezyne some pronounce a row

[20:35]Zane there's two pronunciations but maybe the most common one is a

[20:42]la ventana zine and a la ventana zine was one of the

[20:45]companions of an imam sadiq ali in Silla and he was the

[20:50]student of muhammad even Muslim Muhammad had been Muslim one of the

[20:54]greatest companions of the Imams he raised Alana urban regime he taught

[20:58]him you know for the Islamic law and hadith so he is

[21:06]also reliable then we end at who and Mohammed even Muslim the

[21:09]one who heard this hadith directly from the Imam was who Muhammad

[21:14]urban Muslim Mohamed even Muslim a certify a BA he he has

[21:22]a few nicknames a few titles he was by far one of

[21:28]the most important companions of the Imams he was a true scholar

[21:32]one of the biggest scholars of his time he was in Kufa

[21:37]he graduated from the school of an imam in baka and an

[21:40]imam sadiq peace be upon them for four years he migrated to

[21:44]Medina he settled in Medina to learn from the Imam Ali Sunnah

[21:49]so originally he lived in Kufa but for four years he migrated

[21:55]to Medina to learn the hadith of a debate and then he

[21:58]went back to Kufa let's mention some hadith to show you the

[22:05]status of Muhammad Amin Muslim say many of us today were not

[22:09]familiar with these figures and this is really unfortunate we are indebted

[22:14]to these individuals the Deen the religion of God how did it

[22:17]reach us after the Imams it's through these hard-working scholars who preserved

[22:25]the path for us and we need to know about them these

[22:27]are our heroes they're the ones who saved the narrations of Alan

[22:32]Bates for the future generations most of the Hadees that we have

[22:38]are from scholars like Muhammad have been Muslim and they went through

[22:42]so many difficulties they were many of them were persecuted some of

[22:46]them would be imprisoned just because they carried the message of an

[22:51]inmate so let's learn about Mohammed I been Muslim there's one hadith

[22:55]from an imam sadiq ali salaam in which he says Michelle Mockbee

[23:01]tina.bill Jenna there's a verse in the Quran in which Allah spano

[23:04]Tara says give good news to the most B team who are

[23:09]the moma team the humble ones who obey Allah who prostrate Allah

[23:13]says give them good news the humble ones and Imam Assad up

[23:21]says bestial enmity noble Jenna there are some people that I would

[23:24]like to give them good news that they will go to Jenna

[23:26]they will go to paradise who are they buried eben mahalia and

[23:36]Edgeley number one well Abu Basir Laith alma rowdy that's another companion

[23:42]Zahra is the third one and the fourth one Hamid even Muslim

[23:46]and imagine no this is not from the book yet I'm just

[23:52]telling you about Muhammad even Muslim who is Muhammad even Muslim because

[23:56]this hadith is narrated by who from Muhammad even Muslim he directly

[24:00]heard it from the Imam so let's know Muhammad had been Muslim

[24:02]and his status so an imam sadiq ali sallam he says there

[24:07]are four of my companions give them good news that they're going

[24:11]to paradise Muhammad had been Muslim is one of them and imagine

[24:15]how lucky how aren't these four were such that an infallible imam

[24:25]witnesses that they will go to paradise the Imams would normally not

[24:28]do such things they would not you know especially when their companions

[24:31]were alive you normally wouldn't a where they would end up except

[24:41]these four they had a special status the Imams were so confident

[24:44]of their Iman and faith that they gave them good news that

[24:46]their of the people of paradise the for buried even more alia

[24:57]allegedly Abu Basir lace al Moradi Abu Basir was blind he could

[25:02]not see Muhammad even Muslim and Zara eben ayan these four souls

[25:12]Arara Mohammed Abad Muslim Abu Basir buried so every chain has to

[25:16]go to one of the Imams for us to take it the

[25:23]Prophet or one of the Imams no it can go through an

[25:25]imam sadiq because all the knowledge that the imam had was from

[25:31]the Prophet so everything that the Imams would preach it was from

[25:36]their grandfather from the Prophet so this hadith here it ends at

[25:39]al imam sadiq after an imam sadiq we don't need a chain

[25:43]to the Prophet because he's an infallible imam and we trust all

[25:47]the knowledge that he gives us because he himself in one hadith

[25:50]he says everything you hear that I say I heard it from

[25:54]my father he heard it from his father from his father all

[25:56]the way up to who Imam Ali then the holy prophet salallahu

[26:00]alayhi wa now let's see the continuation of the hadith no Jabba

[26:10]Omaha Allah Allah hallelujah Haram they are trustworthy Allah has entrusted them

[26:18]with his halal and haram meaning his religion well ilaha ilallah in

[26:23]tata at a thorough noble what you $1 sent the Imam says

[26:30]if it weren't for these for the heritage of the prophets would

[26:35]be discontinued meaning the religion of God the sciences of faith there

[26:40]would be gone without these for it is these four that saved

[26:44]the path of a debate and therefore the path of all prophets

[26:48]because the imams are the inheritors of the prophets so this is

[26:53]one hadith another hadith this is truly amazing al-imam asada alehissalaam says

[26:57]when a last sees the human beings sinning they deserve punishment but

[27:04]through these four Allah subhana WA Ta'ala protects the inhabitants of the

[27:10]earth and does not punish them Allah WA come on can you

[27:15]imagine the blessings of these four such that the Imam says sometimes

[27:19]Allah wants to send down the punishment on the people for what

[27:24]they're doing the same for we're talking about but because of them

[27:28]Allah so Allah protects you Subhan Allah these are one of the

[27:32]effects of prophethood because allah subhanaw taala states in the holy quran

[27:36]that i would not you know send the final punishment on your

[27:43]people and your amongst them yah rasul allah because of the prophets

[27:47]allah spanner to Allah did not really punish his people for their

[27:51]crimes and atrocities because of the blessings of the Prophet to an

[27:57]extent the same applies to these four individuals whom new jewel was

[28:03]she IT they are the stars of Messiah what an honor it

[28:08]is that an imam called someone a star of my shia yeah

[28:14]and one water whether they're alive or dead they are the stars

[28:17]of my shia en funa an had a Dean in Jihad al

[28:24]mumineen they protect this faith people who come to change the faith

[28:28]you have scholars like Muhammad have been Muslim who stopped the path

[28:34]of misguidance deviation so this is one hadith from the Imam Ali

[28:38]yet funa an had a Dean in Talal Moline Moline are people

[28:46]of falsehood who bring their falsehoods and insert it in religion who's

[28:50]the one who stands up to them with their knowledge with their

[28:54]wisdom it's people like Mohammed Amin Muslim through them Allah Spano Tejada

[29:00]saved the faith a final hadith that I'll share with you Abdullah

[29:05]had been a beer food he's one of the Companions of our

[29:11]Imam of Sadr hani salaam he says i came to the imam

[29:12]ali as salam I told him o Imam I'm not always able

[29:18]to come and meet you and travel to hear from you and

[29:23]learn from you what do I do let's say I'm in Kufa

[29:27]I can always come to Medina or even if you're in Kufa

[29:31]it's difficult to come and see you what should I do people

[29:35]ask me questions I need to know about my faith what do

[29:37]I do the Imam Ali salam tells him my amnell came in

[29:43]muhammad had been muslim why don't you go to Muhammad have been

[29:46]Muslim imagine when you go to ask an imam and the imam

[29:52]refers you to one of his companions how much trust does the

[29:54]imam have and muhammad had been muslim that he'll refer you to

[30:01]him that's like going to your merger right and asking him a

[30:05]question the manager says go on as so and so person that's

[30:09]big the a man himself is trusting Mohammed even Muslim so he's

[30:13]asking you you know what you don't need to come and see

[30:16]me you don't need to ask me anymore go ask Muhammad a

[30:19]bit Muslim he has the knowledge so Muhammad had been Muslim was

[30:22]really one of the greatest companions of the Imams there is consensus

[30:27]amongst Muslim scholars that he was highly trustworthy and he was highly

[30:32]reliable he was a man of humbleness now this is just his

[30:39]you know when we examine his life in terms of his scholarship

[30:42]but when you examine his life in terms of his flat in

[30:48]terms of his Toliver humbleness in terms of his worship one hadith

[30:51]says the Imam was once passed passing by the message it he

[30:54]saw Muhammad had been Muslim in the heat of the day you've

[30:59]seen the heat some of you in Iraq or in Medina it's

[31:02]brutal at noon time he was in the afternoon he was praying

[31:07]the Imam asked him Oh Muhammad the Muslim what what are you

[31:10]praying is this year why jep's Allah he says no this is

[31:14]my nawafil the extra recommended prayers so these scholars were also worshipers

[31:20]and this is very difficult to get a combination of two for

[31:25]someone to spend his most of his day for scholarship for knowledge

[31:33]for education but at the same time makes room for ibadan makes

[31:37]room for worship so we get this hadith from Muhammad urban Muslim

[31:42]and ABI Jafar alehissalaam who is abu jafar an imam in battle

[31:49]is Sarah so Mohammad Hamid Muslim is a companion of two Iman's

[31:52]Alabaman barter and an imam who saw the peace be upon them

[31:54]he hears this hadith from an imam al barter salam ala Holly

[32:03]what's the hadith it's a very interesting hadith l'm Halleck allah who

[32:11]accosted baka when God created the intellect Allah asked the intellect to

[32:19]speak you've heard of the word octal in Arabic right what is

[32:23]the word I can mean originally linguistically the word doctor means to

[32:30]tie something to prevent something that's why in Arabic they would say

[32:36]Apple and Natha if you were riding a camel and you would

[32:41]go for example to a shop you come down from the camel

[32:46]you had to tie the camel so it wouldn't run away or

[32:49]someone wouldn't take it this process of tying the camel outside of

[32:54]that shop or outside the message it is called a Colin naka

[33:00]it's using a root word of I mean Gough lon now let

[33:05]me ask you this question the intellect the power of reason why

[33:09]is it using this root word what does it have to do

[33:13]with preventing or with tying can you guess why is the octal

[33:19]in Arabic the intellect why is it called out then what does

[33:22]it have to do with this process of you know preventing or

[33:26]tying what's that to control the Neffs you were saying something sister

[33:44]so to prevent from for example the wrong path the reason why

[33:52]the intellect is called Italian Arabic is what you both mentioned that

[33:57]you use the power of reason to prevent yourself to tie yourself

[34:04]from falling into corruption will address the hadith was just explain what

[34:14]the Apple is so you tie yourself and you control yourself from

[34:20]falling into corruption and from being enslaved to your desires that's what

[34:26]the octal means it's something that prevents you it's a power that

[34:30]controls you and ties you so you don't fall into corruption that's

[34:35]the meaning of knocking allah subhana allah says when he called the

[34:42]authen when allah subhanaw taala created the oven he told that i

[34:50]can speak but allah subhanaw taala thermicon idaho acapella man allah said

[34:56]to the intellect come and it came so mciallella who had the

[35:00]benefit but allah says go and it went now what does this

[35:03]really mean when Allah created the intellect he asked the intellect to

[35:11]speak he gave the intellect the power to speak the power of

[35:20]language what does that mean scholars have interpreted this hadith in two

[35:27]ways one is a literal way second is a metaphoric symbolic way

[35:36]an allegorical way the first way that in which we can look

[35:40]at this hadith is that a Lhasa panatela created a being that

[35:44]being represented the intellect now what exactly is the essence of that

[35:50]being we don't know but what we know is that many of

[35:55]the realities in our life even our actions they have a physical

[36:00]embodiment maybe you've heard some scholars state that for example sins when

[36:06]we sin that sin will turn into a physical being that will

[36:12]for example harm us and the graver on the day of judgment

[36:15]and there's a hadith about that you know when you sin that

[36:21]sin could he immediately create a fire for example but there is

[36:25]a veil between you and that fire you can't see it when

[36:29]you die that veil is removed and you can see it or

[36:31]there are some narrations that say some sins will translate into scorpions

[36:37]or snakes in the grave in the buzzer and the purgatory every

[36:42]action in this world in this life has a physical equivalent has

[36:49]a physical embodiment or representation to the contrary every good deed has

[36:58]a beautiful existence to it the Quran for example the hadith says

[37:02]the Quran on the day of judgment and the grave will come

[37:06]in the form of a beautiful creation such that the minute you

[37:11]see that creation you forget about all your misery and pain so

[37:17]the Quran is a book it's a Word of God but it

[37:22]has a physical dimension to it as well so the same with

[37:25]the intellect this power of reason has a physical embodiment which God

[37:31]created created this is if we take it literally yes brother this

[37:37]is so this is if we take it literally that God really

[37:42]created something which represents the intellect and a last spoke to it

[37:46]God said go and it went come and it came meaning it

[37:50]obeyed God in Arabic when you say you know go and come

[37:57]and that being obeyed me in other words you're saying that the

[38:01]Aten is a being that obeys allah subhanho wa taala that's one

[38:06]explanation there's another explanation that says look this is symbolic it's not

[38:13]that this event really happened that God created that then God asked

[38:18]it to come and it came and it moved around you know

[38:20]allah subhanaw taala and this hadith the imam ali is said i'm

[38:26]is bringing it closer to our mind that god created the power

[38:29]of reason and the power of reason because it perceives and understands

[38:37]it can obey the almighty god so it's like if you tell

[38:40]it go it will go if you tell it to come it

[38:43]will come in other words it obeys you so this didn't necessarily

[38:46]happen somewhere you know before existence where God created this thing and

[38:52]a last panel to Allah spoke to it this is more metaphoric

[38:57]this is more allegorical it's symbolic so allah subhanaw taala created the

[39:04]intellect and the intellect obeyed god then allah subhanaw taala says what

[39:09]city you were Jalali I swear by my glory by my greatness

[39:13]ma helped to help and who a habu element I have not

[39:21]created a creation that is more beloved to me than you the

[39:25]most beloved of God's creation is the intellect why because how do

[39:32]you worship Allah through the power of reason how do you discern

[39:37]right from wrong through the power of reason how do you perceive

[39:41]and understand through the power of reason so there's nothing more beloved

[39:46]to God than intellect and the power of reason than the happen

[39:51]it's the most valuable thing God created according to this authentic hadith

[39:56]we looked at the chain the chain is impeccable it's a top

[40:00]hadith when it comes to the chain so it's highly reliable then

[40:06]allah subhanaw taala states voila a command to care l FEMEN or

[40:16]head and i have not completed you darted except in those whom

[40:22]i love you know oftentimes you'll find people objecting to the idea

[40:27]that it's found in many of our hadeeth and doors and beliefs

[40:35]that car god created the universe for the athlete bates right have

[40:39]you heard that or not then at last planet i created this

[40:44]whole universe in honor of the activates the prophet and his family

[40:49]what's that and hadith acusa exactly in Nima scalloped Osama and Lebanon

[40:56]when Arvind Mattea and hadith acusa Allah Spanish Allah says I've not

[41:01]created you know these vast skies the galaxies the earth the heavens

[41:05]except for what for you they animate some people think this is

[41:12]an exaggeration we're taking it too far here we're giving a little

[41:17]bait a status you know that's higher than their real status this

[41:22]first hadith in the book of caffeine sheds light on this and

[41:27]explains why the eye debates have the status Allah says I've created

[41:35]the intellect and it's my most beloved creation and I've completed I've

[41:44]given the full intellect to those whom I love so the most

[41:48]beloved creation of Allah is the added weight why because they possessed

[41:53]the full intellect that's the meaning of infallibility when you're infallible what

[41:59]does it mean you have the full intellect you have that powerful

[42:03]intellect driving you and guiding you to do that which is good

[42:08]and you don't even commit a single sin that's the intellect because

[42:15]the hadith says whenever you sin it's because there you know a

[42:22]deficiency in your intellect not in the brain or not in your

[42:28]IQ no that's a different story by the way when we talk

[42:30]about the intellect we're not talking about how intelligent you are we're

[42:34]not talking about your IQ doctorate is more than that it's the

[42:41]power that you have to see right from wrong and to act

[42:48]upon it that's the power of reason it's the power that allows

[42:53]you to worship God to uphold justice you could have the highest

[43:02]IQ but you could be an evil dictator that's not Akkad will

[43:12]see that in following narrations in Sharma yes brother that is correct

[43:25]many Muslim schools of thought they don't believe in the concept of

[43:27]infallibility but this hadith here is one of the indications that the

[43:36]most beloved creation of God that has the complete intellect is infallible

[43:39]because that's really what infallibility is that you have the complete intellect

[43:45]so Allah subhana WA Ta'ala says I will not complete you except

[43:51]in those whom I love so God creates it let's ask this

[43:53]question before why did God create the universe does God need the

[43:59]universe no does he need us no why did he create the

[44:01]universe you know why would God create this vast universe with all

[44:08]these stars and galaxies and these wonders for what purpose let's say

[44:11]one day you're driving by and then in a desert and out

[44:16]of nowhere you see this huge beautiful city with all these buildings

[44:21]and skyscrapers skyscrapers you go inside you find no inhabitants there's nobody

[44:26]living here nobody benefitting from it there's no one even passing by

[44:31]to appreciate its beauty what would you say you would say whoever

[44:37]built this you know he did so in vain had no wisdom

[44:39]wasting his time because he created a city nobody even lives here

[44:48]nobody even passes by it's in vain once you have a being

[44:51]that perceives understands and benefits then there's purpose to it this whole

[44:56]universe take out the intellect take out the oven the power of

[45:04]reason perception to understand and just make it matter and objects there's

[45:08]no purpose - why would God create all this matter for what

[45:12]purpose it's all for the intellect so the intellect sees this creation

[45:17]of God appreciates the creation of God and worships God so everything

[45:24]in the universe was created for the intellect that's why if you

[45:28]take the intellect outside from the picture you have nothing you have

[45:33]a useless creation why would God create just matter just dead objects

[45:38]without a perceptive power which we call the intellect so everything in

[45:45]the universe was created for the intellect now let's take this to

[45:49]another layer who's the Imam of our time today an imam imagine

[45:55]Allah to an orphanage a he embodies that full intellect have you

[46:01]heard the hadith that says if God removes his Hodja from earth

[46:05]whether it's a prophet or an imam if God removes the Hodja

[46:11]from earth what happens Sasha tell our the earth collapses the world

[46:16]will cease to exist why some people wonder you know okay all

[46:21]this world just for Imam and Mandi because an imam and mandy

[46:28]possesses the full intellect so god really created the world for that

[46:32]intellect and he carries that intellect he represents that intellect he embodies

[46:37]that intellect hence if you remove them from earth there's no reason

[46:41]why god will allow this creation to continue because the full intellect

[46:45]is removed and God created the universe for the full intellect and

[46:49]this hadith says it's my most beloved creation and I have completed

[46:54]it in those whom I love that's the power of the intellect

[47:02]when I came and took her in laughs even ahead and hence

[47:05]by the way you have narrations from the Prophet peace be upon

[47:10]him in who in which he says alwa know my cell at

[47:12]the lenore-- the first thing that God created was my light this

[47:19]is the light it's the light of the oven the light of

[47:21]the intellect so the first thing God created was the intellect or

[47:27]the light of the Holy Prophet they're one in the same so

[47:30]the essence of the animal bait is intellect it's the power of

[47:37]reason the power of perception to worship allah subhanaw taala to decipher

[47:41]right from wrong and then allah subhanaw taala says mi amor y

[47:49]ya can huh well ya co-opted boy Yakko Phoebe all intellect through

[47:54]you I give commands through you I assure prohibitions because you understand

[48:03]and perceive and based on you do I reward and punish allah

[48:06]subhanaw taala will reward and punish us based on the intellect that

[48:14]we have the more we use the intellect the more on last

[48:18]part Allah rewards us and the last panel to Allah will reward

[48:24]us according to the level of our intellect now let's conclude with

[48:27]this some of you may wonder okay that level of intellect people

[48:31]are born differently darah hadith about this we'll read some of them

[48:35]later that people are born with different levels of intellect not everyone

[48:40]has the same level of intellect so in that case what do

[48:46]I do let's say God has created me with a lower level

[48:49]of intellect as that fixed permanent cannot be changed listen to this

[48:54]hadith from Imam al Karim Allah is Salah in which he says

[49:02]men are odd Elena bilham on the one who wants wealth but

[49:05]without money what aha tell that women'll hasit and if you want

[49:13]your heart to be relaxed to be at rest by not having

[49:21]any jealousy in it because the jealous person really is not enjoying

[49:25]his life instead of enjoying their lives they're just concerned with what

[49:30]other people have what they're doing they're not at rest you've seen

[49:34]you know this jealousy sometimes it really spoils your life it doesn't

[49:39]allow you to enjoy your life so the amount says if you

[49:43]want a heart that is at rest and there's no jealousy in

[49:45]it what's Adama 2:15 you want your religion to be upright to

[49:53]be healthy friendly at Allah and Allah Azza WA JAL famous and

[49:57]achieve a new kamila at Allah then he should ask Allah subhana

[50:05]WA Ta'ala day and night beg God to complete your intellect to

[50:09]increase your intellect as this one of the dyes that we do

[50:12]most people don't do these dots next time on lailatul card and

[50:17]i have power other important religious events whenever you're doing dua and

[50:22]you have that state of khushu and humbleness the first thing you

[50:25]ask for is this o Allah increase my intellect because that is

[50:29]the most beloved creation you've created and one way to ask for

[50:37]that is by asking allah subhana wa ta'ala to hastened the reappearance

[50:41]of Adam and Mandi because the hadith says when the Imam reappears

[50:45]it's also in coffee we'll read it one day in sha allah

[50:51]the hadith says when the Imam reappears he will place his hand

[50:55]on the head of people now this could be taken literal or

[51:02]symbolic once the Imam does that the intellect of the people will

[51:06]be completed hence during the era of an imam and Maddie you

[51:12]will not have most of the problems that you have today the

[51:15]evil and the corruption and the injustice why because people's intellect will

[51:19]be completed through the blessings of Allah Muhammad Mandi so this is

[51:24]the first hadith that we find in the book of coffee it's

[51:28]a very very interesting hadith there are many depths to it there

[51:32]are some scholars who will dedicate you know hundreds of pages in

[51:35]explaining this hadith the essence of the intellect and you know philosophical

[51:40]points about the intellect it's a very interesting hadith most scholars today

[51:45]take this symbolic that allah subhana wa ta'ala is bringing to our

[51:52]attention the significance of the intellect the power of reason the power

[51:58]to differentiate right from wrong and to worship allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala that

[52:04]should be the priority of every believer how can I increase my

[52:08]intellect and what are the things that reduce my intellect but art

[52:12]because there are actions and things that we do there are some

[52:18]habits that we have that reduce the intellect we need to investigate

[52:21]what are those so this is the first hadith in the book

[52:26]of coffee it's an authentic hadith it has an impeccable chain a

[52:31]pure chain of narrators and an alum L Collini decided to list

[52:36]this as the first hadith in his book ala muhammadin wa ala

[52:43]Anthony Lamas on Muhammad one you
