[0:45]information thank you [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] yes am [Music] [Music]

[2:10]is [Music] foreign [Applause] muhammad foreign there is a similarity in you

[3:53]with jesus alaihissalam the jews despised him until they accused his mother

[4:01]and the christians loved him so much until they begun to attribute

[4:11]to him that which was not rightfully his of their similarities was

[4:21]the fact that they were both at one point or another called

[4:28]god at one stage or another you found that they were worshipped

[4:31]by a group of people that a group of people either within

[4:35]the christian faith or within the religion of islam came to a

[4:41]conclusion that jesus was god and at the same time came to

[4:45]a conclusion in certain sections of the muslim community that imam ali

[4:51]alaihissalam was god indeed you find that when you look within the

[4:57]islamic tradition the worst of sins is of course shirk the greatest

[5:01]sin that anyone can ever commit is the sin of shirk but

[5:05]here in islamic history and in christian history one finds that within

[5:10]both religions while not all the people may have come to this

[5:17]conclusion there is without a doubt a segment of them who at

[5:20]one stage or another had come forward and said that imam ali

[5:23]was god or that jesus was god and that's why we find

[5:29]in this tradition that the holy prophet peace be upon him and

[5:31]his family tells imam ali alayhi islam about this the holy prophet

[5:38]had of the rabe the rabe the unseen was either knowledge of

[5:41]what had come before him of the lives of the prophets of

[5:47]allah or what had come after him of the likes of those

[5:49]who were to be the saints on the earth sometimes the prophet

[5:54]would tell you about the prophets that had come before him and

[5:56]sometimes the prophet would tell also at the same time about who

[6:00]about what would happen for example in the future hence you find

[6:06]the prophet peace be upon him on his family would always be

[6:11]comparing imam salam with prophets many of us know that no companion

[6:15]of rasulallah was comparable to the nbr except imam ali alayhi if

[6:23]you look at the companions of the prophet you'll be hard fetched

[6:27]to find a companion who was worthy of being compared to the

[6:32]holy prophet peace be upon him and his family like imam ali

[6:38]or compared to the prophets who had come before him the prophet

[6:42]himself peace be upon him and his family says that ali is

[6:46]to me like harun was to musa ali is to me like

[6:53]aaron was true moses when we see this therefore we find that

[6:56]the holy prophet peace be upon him and his family had made

[7:02]clear that imam ali alayhim but in this tradition the prophet highlights

[7:19]that imam ali alaihissalam was comparable to who was comparable to nabi

[7:26]islam the prophet saying and this can be seen by the way

[7:29]in non-shia traditions in the muslin of ahmed bin hambel for example

[7:34]you'll see this tradition oh ali you are in similarity to who

[7:40]you are in similarity to jesus son of mary how the jews

[7:48]despised jesus so much until they begun to accuse his mother and

[7:55]slander his mother and the christians loved jesus so much until they

[8:01]began to attribute to him that which was not rightfully his when

[8:07]the holy prophet therefore says this the holy prophet is making it

[8:11]clear that there's a similarity that exists with who with imam ali

[8:16]alayhi that something has been done in relation to what the jews

[8:20]and the christians done to issa the muslims would have done the

[8:28]same to imam ali alaihissalam you therefore found that this relationship can

[8:33]be found in the biography of imam ali and the biography of

[8:37]nabi because in our series on nabi isa we said that the

[8:40]greatest blasphemy on nabi is him being called god or the son

[8:47]of god as the quran mentions in surah 5 verse 72 jesus

[9:02]son of mary the greatest act of disbelief is for someone to

[9:10]say that jesus is god but ironically we find in our history

[9:13]that the same thing happened with amir al-m exactly the same as

[9:19]what happened to nabi isa alaihissalam let us tonight examine how this

[9:25]tradition which relates to nabi islam applied to imam ali at the

[9:29]same time and i'd like to do this in the following stages

[9:31]number one the tradition says the jews despised jesus until they slandered

[9:40]his mum who of imam ali's parents who faced this as well

[9:44]in relation to what the jews shown with jesus's mother number two

[9:50]if the quran talks about god and talks about god in the

[9:54]sense of the plural when the quran mentions god and the word

[9:56]we then why can we not say that god is the father

[10:00]and god is the son and that jesus could possibly be god

[10:04]number three when christians say jesus is god which chapters of the

[10:09]bible do they use to prove that jesus himself said that he

[10:13]was god number four how do we look at other chapters in

[10:18]the bible where jesus makes it clear that you worship israel the

[10:23]lord the one god and he separates himself from the lord the

[10:29]god in our history as shia did we have people who worshipped

[10:32]imam ali as god in the way the christians worship jesus as

[10:38]god and what do we make of these groups number six what

[10:41]of the traditions that say attribute to us everything except divinity are

[10:48]these traditions to be accepted or can we as shia also fall

[10:52]in a state of shirk number seven if isa is not god

[10:57]nor a normal human being but somewhere in the middle then what

[11:01]does that say about the position of imam ali as well and

[11:06]how do such traditions prove that imam ali alayhi salam was clearly

[11:11]someone not immortal but not god but somewhere high in the middle

[11:17]and finally how does one act of neber and one act of

[11:22]imam ali prove that they both are not god and how is

[11:27]this one act in the eyes of the human the lowest on

[11:31]the earth but in the eyes of allah for storage let's examine

[11:36]this and dissect the topic in complete depth when we come towards

[11:41]the tradition the tradition says oh ali there's a similarity in you

[11:46]with jesus what's the similarity the first thing is that the jews

[11:51]despised you until they slandered your mother you find that the jews

[11:58]are in contrast to the muslims when it comes to maryam for

[12:02]us maryam is a methyl is an ayah it is an example

[12:22]tell the angels or angels you tell mary that we have chosen

[12:28]her purified her and chosen her we as muslims we recognize maryam

[12:32]as chosen and purified but sadly how many muslims today are respected

[12:38]by christians and how many of the jewish community are respected by

[12:43]christians many of the jewish community are respected by the christian community

[12:48]and many of the christian community do not necessarily respect the muslims

[12:52]although we admire maryam and the jewish community slanders maryam the jewish

[12:57]community reached the conclusion in different works of theirs that maryam alaihissalam

[13:02]how did she have jesus she had him through an act of

[13:07]fornication i mentioned this a few nights ago that they said maryam

[13:10]slept with a roman soldier by the name of pantera and from

[13:17]that relationship that they had with one another they had jesus and

[13:20]that's why for many of the jewish community maryam is not revered

[13:25]forget jesus for the jewish community who no one ever mentions what

[13:29]their opinions are on jesus and mary you don't really see it

[13:31]in public always we the muslims have to defend ourselves by saying

[13:37]that wallah we love we love maryam is mentioned in the quran

[13:42]more than she is mentioned in the bible okay i ask a

[13:43]question the jewish community what's their opinion on maryam do they respect

[13:48]mariam as one of the greatest ladies no in medieval jewish writings

[13:53]and in the ancient talmud you'll see it written that they believe

[13:58]that mariam had fornicated and that she had a child from fornication

[14:02]from a roman soldier when rasulullah therefore said that o ali your

[14:11]similarity to jesus is what is that the jews a they slandered

[14:15]your they slandered jesus's mother and likewise you found here that the

[14:22]word slander becomes important why the same way the jews had slandered

[14:28]here it seems that the prophet is highlighting that the same slang

[14:32]that would happen with who with imam ali salam that imam meaning

[14:37]you found was slandered on a number of different levels the jews

[14:42]slandered his mom was imam ali's parents landed in his life yes

[14:45]of course who of his parents was slandered the most the same

[14:54]way the jews had slandered the mother of jesus you found that

[15:01]benny umayyah and many abbas took it upon themselves in the slandering

[15:05]of imam ali's father look at the similarity between the two nabi

[15:09]isa has to see people who slander his mom and accuse his

[15:15]mom of fornication what are they accused of talibaf they accused abu

[15:19]talib of kofor they said that was a mushrik abba until the

[15:27]end of his life you'll see mrs bukhari and others clearly stating

[15:32]that abu talib died while still being watched while still being a

[15:38]polytheist and they would continue spreading this everywhere they brought up nations

[15:42]in sham where children would be raised slandering ali's parents like the

[15:51]way the jews landed asa's mother imam ali's father you'd see in

[15:55]sham there'd be people who dry and they'd write that's abu talib

[15:58]died as a kafir you'd see for example in many areas of

[16:03]the muslim world it would continue then you'd see where then you'd

[16:07]see for example with many abbas in my opinion by the way

[16:12]bani abbas landed abu talib more than umayya why because many abbas

[16:16]had more to gain in their slandering of abu talib than many

[16:20]umayya who do they come from abbas the uncle of the prophet

[16:25]peace be upon him family do they come from the uncle of

[16:32]the prophet peace be upon his family is returned to abbas the

[16:52]other uncle many abbas could not take how is it that abu

[16:54]talib in some cases is viewed higher than abbas why is it

[17:00]that people mention abu talib's support for rasulallah came from the same

[17:11]mother and father whereas abbas came from abdullah by a different mother

[17:14]so you know what many abbas began to do they're the ones

[17:19]who began to attack abu talib they're the ones who in the

[17:22]books of tafasir began to push this idea that abu talib on

[17:26]his deathbed the prophet is pleading with him my uncle allah come

[17:30]to the path of god my uncle why don't you believe in

[17:32]god what do you mean my uncle why don't you believe in

[17:35]god your uncle was the very backbone of the religion of islam

[17:38]the year that your uncle died o prophet of god the year

[17:43]was called ahmed hosn it was the year of grief because the

[17:46]backbones of the religion of islam were what the backbones of the

[17:50]religion of islam as we all know were who were they were

[17:58]the backbones of the religion that she above that valley three years

[18:03]he gave everything to the religion of islam everybody else had forgotten

[18:07]there were even converts who had joined the religion who were not

[18:11]there and yet you find what yet you find that it was

[18:15]abu talib who gave everything he gave his jaffa his son he

[18:19]sent him to abyssinia he made amir al-mu'min sleep in the bed

[18:21]of rasulallah in all those years and at the end what happens

[18:27]in islamic history and i wish it was just benny umayyad if

[18:31]it was just who slandered ali's father the way the jews slammed

[18:37]jesus's mother i would say okay until today you go to hajj

[18:43]you go to minna in the period of hajj you listen to

[18:45]the khutba at minna what would the khutbah normally be on in

[18:50]hajj it should be october it's parents forgiveness supplication the topic is

[18:58]the kuffar of abu talib that's all you have to talk about

[19:00]nothing else there's nothing else to talk about my prophet was right

[19:07]when he said oh ali there is a similarity in you with

[19:13]jesus the jews slandered his mom and accused her and in the

[19:18]same way with imam salam his father who gave everything to the

[19:21]prophet when the prophet was an orphan who is it that raised

[19:28]rasulullah who is it that read who is it that done all

[19:33]of that and yet today subhanallah go to any mosque in london

[19:36]go to any mosque in canada any mosque in america any mosque

[19:41]in africa any mosque in jordan any mosque in palestine any mosque

[19:45]in many of the middle eastern countries you'll find a group of

[19:49]the people still saying nice man but kafir and the child is

[19:54]grown up abu talib is the kafir and the grandchildren grow up

[19:56]abu talib this is a slander against the man who gave everything

[20:01]to the religion of islam therefore rasulallah came from the jewish angle

[20:08]what was it that oh ali the first similarity between you and

[20:15]between jesus son or mary was that the jews despised you there

[20:19]is someone with book of mubarak they hated jesus so much they

[20:26]took it out on his mum likewise with ali because of the

[20:32]book of to abu torab they took it out on who they

[20:34]took it out on his dad they wanted to make sure that

[20:37]generations were raised hating his dad they wanted to make sure that

[20:41]generations were raised calling his dad alhamdulillah in all honesty i'm not

[20:48]going to say by the way all of the non-shia world believe

[20:50]abu talib zakat there are some of the sunni brothers and sisters

[20:55]who believe that abu talib is a mutman not all of them

[20:57]believe he's a catholic if you go on youtube today you will

[21:02]find that there are who are not but the majority unfortunately inherited

[21:09]this idea that abu talib was to be slandered as being someone

[21:13]who burns at the bottom of hell and you know something that

[21:17]surprises me more abu lahab gave away his slave when rasool allah

[21:24]sallallahu alaihi was born gave away a slave because of that the

[21:30]punishment of hell fire is reduced for abu lahab because he gave

[21:34]away a slave abu talib gave away all of that but there's

[21:37]no reduction of the punishment there's no reduction but for the other

[21:42]one there's a reduction let me even add something more to that

[21:44]there are some companions of rasulallah their fathers were the most bitter

[21:50]enemies of the prophet some of them their fathers were the most

[21:54]bitter enemies an example i'll give you an example in the quran

[21:59]many of you read the ayah about the son of zinna you've

[22:05]read the ayah this ayah is about the one who was a

[22:08]cursed son of adultery who fights the prophet the ayah was revealed

[22:14]in honor of who in honor of waleed no in dishonor in

[22:19]reality that was one of those who used to insult the prophet

[22:24]and fight the prophet answer when it comes to it it says

[22:32]but we won't talk too bad about waleed because his son is

[22:38]khalid so we don't want to hurt khalid's feelings you know because

[22:43]khalid ibn waleed so don't talk too much about waleed because his

[22:48]son is khalid son did nothing for islam no problem we cannot

[22:55]say we have to be careful we have to make sure that

[23:00]khalid's feelings are not hurt someone will say but say these are

[23:03]sensitive issues it's not about sensitivity there can't be a rule for

[23:08]khalid foreign and sometimes i'll tell you you know sometimes in life

[23:31]when you're going through a bad period in your life what do

[23:33]people always say to you don't worry there were those before you

[23:37]who went through a bad period isn't that true i think that

[23:41]sometimes begins such a hadith and gives them to imam ali to

[23:47]highlight to imam ali jesus went through what you're going through it

[23:52]might hurt you what you are going through but know one thing

[23:56]was a pure man was from the azim yet they still slandered

[24:02]his mother so when they slander your father oh ali then recognize

[24:07]one thing then recognize that there are those who have come before

[24:11]you so the hadith begun by saying what it's begun from the

[24:15]jewish angle most of the time when we compare imam ali and

[24:17]nabi we start from the christian angle but the hadith begun from

[24:22]the jewish angle the hadith said oh ali that you are similar

[24:27]to jesus the jews despised jesus until they slandered his mom that

[24:33]we've understood and then he says and the christians loved him so

[24:39]much until they attributed to him that which was not appropriate what

[24:45]is it that they attributed to him they attributed to him that

[24:48]he was god yes if you go to the christian world you'll

[24:54]see the christian world until today calls nebrasa lord jesus isn't this

[24:59]true wherever we go we'll hear christians even if a christian says

[25:04]to me that no no no i don't mean i mean son

[25:05]of reality is when you say lord jesus you are saying that

[25:11]jesus is god of course one christian came to me one day

[25:14]and said to me but you also believe that god is more

[25:18]than one i said we muslims believe god is one ultimately so

[25:24]hate for us is fundamental he said no no you muslims you

[25:26]say for example god when he says he revealed the quran we

[25:32]are the ones who sent down the quran he doesn't say he

[25:41]says the person says in the quran it says verily we are

[25:53]the ones who set down the quran so you muslims also don't

[26:00]believe in one god we reply no no that we is what's

[26:01]known as the royal we if now the queen of this country

[26:07]comes out on christmas day and says we would like to thank

[26:09]you all for your support what we see in front of us

[26:14]is one lady sitting there but it's majestic it's a royal way

[26:18]of speaking lahu is more majestic than maliki and musa for christians

[26:31]however no christian can deny that in christian history until today the

[26:37]christians went to a level in terms of their love for nebraska

[26:42]where they ended up calling him god how many of you who

[26:48]are watching this have heard a christian who says jesus is god

[26:50]or even one if you type on youtube you know you might

[26:54]find someone says no we don't believe he's got it go on

[26:55]youtube there are pastors and priests who defend the idea that jesus

[27:01]is god which chapters of the bible do they use to defend

[27:07]this idea this is fundamental because in the bible they're obviously going

[27:11]to use certain verses and these verses are the ones which they

[27:14]use to say that this is why we believe jesus is god

[27:20]because he himself said that he is what he himself said that

[27:24]he is god the first of those chapters which they use for

[27:27]example is john 10 30.

[27:30]i and the father are one so they say look here this

[27:37]is the clearest proof that jesus is god if he's saying i

[27:39]and the father are one so it must mean that we have

[27:45]to believe that he is god then they'll use another verse of

[27:49]the bible mark 2 where jesus says i'll pardon your sins yes

[27:54]he will pardon sins who is normally god what jesus says i

[28:01]am the one who will pardon your sins then further than that

[28:07]you'll see other sections within the bible where jesus will talk about

[28:11]for example john 5 18 where they virtually equate him being the

[28:15]son of god with being god so if i had the bible

[28:20]and i see john 10 30 and says i and the father

[28:26]are one and i see mark two jesus says i'll pardon the

[28:31]sins and i see john 5 18 and there's an equation that

[28:33]the son of god must be god then can you blame a

[28:38]christian if he believes god is jesus and jesus is god you

[28:44]can't because it's there within the bible even though these lines that

[28:46]are used i as a muslim can still believe in them what

[28:54]do i mean john 10 30 i and the father are one

[28:56]wallah it's true i believe it the message of isa and the

[29:00]message of god is one and that is so heid whether you

[29:05]want to say iloh or ilah or al-ilah or allah whether it's

[29:13]there from the old testament or the way the jews pronounce it

[29:16]or the ways the muslim pronounce it ultimately it's all one direction

[29:20]when jesus says i and the father are one i have no

[29:25]problem with that in fact because i believe that nabi islam's message

[29:29]is the message of sure to heed the oneness of god i

[29:38]believe he and the father are one one direction you therefore find

[29:50]that here when the christian says to me john 10 30 proves

[29:55]that jesus is god i reply by saying no to me it

[30:01]proves that he and the father are in one direction one message

[30:03]one ideology then says well how about mark 2 mark 2 jesus

[30:09]pardons our sins i believe that also those who used to come

[30:13]to rasulullah they could have their sins pardoned by rasool allah on

[30:21]behalf of allah which says had they when they had been unjust

[30:44]to themselves had they come to you o muhammad and asked for

[30:49]forgiveness allah would have forgiven them on your behalf jesus pardoned sins

[30:56]i agree yes jesus if you went up to him in galilee

[31:01]or nazareth or judea or whichever part of that area and you

[31:04]went to him you said i want to say something to you

[31:07]i am a sinner and i have come to confess and i

[31:11]want to say that i have committed much wrong so here i

[31:14]am and i am asking you because you are what you are

[31:19]the one god has sent to me as he says wonderfully within

[31:24]the bible in the chapter of john 17 3.

[31:28]jesus allah makes it clear father the eternal and to know that

[31:34]he has sent me yes ultimately what's the aim of life to

[31:36]know the eternal father to understand this world and to understand and

[31:43]follow the one who he has sent which is me i will

[31:47]come to nabi isa alaihissalam and i will say to nabi isa

[31:49]very clearly i will say to him o prophet of god if

[31:53]i was and he's with us for us as muslims is alive

[31:59]so until today can i use him as an intermediary forgive me

[32:17]therefore those verses that you give me where you say to me

[32:21]i and the father are one yes and god are one they

[32:24]are on the same message the same sir you come and tell

[32:28]me nabi isa is the one who pardons sins i believe until

[32:32]today is alive and until today if you approach him ask him

[32:38]through his website will forgive us if we use nabi asa as

[32:46]an intermediary and that's why in the same bible where the christians

[32:51]out of their love they went towards valine out of their love

[32:55]in the same bible there are verses where asa alaihissalam himself says

[33:00]baba i'm not god famous section mark 10 go to mark 10.

[33:11]matthew mark luke and john mark is the oldest of the four

[33:15]although they put the order normally matthew mark luke john mark is

[33:19]the oldest mark in chapter 10 narrates about someone who came to

[33:24]nabi islam this is in the bible all of you have google

[33:28]at home go and google it please in the bible someone comes

[33:32]to nabi islam and when he comes he wants to ask him

[33:36]good teacher yes how can i earn that success in life how

[33:44]am i able to earn that eternal success that eternal happiness and

[33:51]he turns around to him and he says that why do you

[33:56]call me good why do you call me good none is good

[34:03]but who but god now if naby is god why is he

[34:09]saying why do you call me good none is good but god

[34:13]the almighty the all high here this person has come he is

[34:19]asking him as his good teacher and nabi isa could easily turn

[34:23]around and say well i'll tell you how this is the answer

[34:27]he doesn't begin by talking about the commandments what does he begin

[34:34]with he begins by talking about what by talking about that don't

[34:38]call me the one who's good yes why do you say good

[34:39]teacher none is good except who god if you are god why

[34:48]are you making a distinction or when someone comes to ask him

[34:51]someone comes and asks jesus alaihissalam what does he say to him

[34:56]he says to jesus what is the most important of the ten

[34:59]commandments that came with moses what is the most important one stealing

[35:06]committing adults which one is the most important one that we have

[35:09]to stay away from oh israel your lord god yes oh israel

[35:14]it is for you to know your lord god god is one

[35:19]he is making it clear here that that is the commandment doesn't

[35:23]say i am god i am your lord no it is for

[35:27]you to know your lord to worship your lord to follow the

[35:32]commands of your lord therefore in the bible when i'm looking within

[35:35]the bible what am i seeing i'm seeing within the bible that

[35:37]if i go towards mark or if i go towards those who

[35:41]are asking him he's the one who's saying that you know what

[35:44]your lord god that is the direction you go to you call

[35:48]me the good teacher don't call me the good teacher don't call

[35:51]me good no one's good except allah meaning no one's achieved that

[35:55]level of perfection except allah subhanahu wa no one's independent in their

[36:02]perfection because someone might say all these prophets are infallible yes but

[36:09]that comes as a grace from allah subhanahu wa ta'ala the perfection

[36:13]ultimately is from who the perfection ultimately is from allah therefore when

[36:18]my christian friends come and tell me that jesus is god i

[36:22]turn around say listen the commandments are making it clear israel your

[36:26]lord one god that is who you follow that's always been the

[36:32]way deuteronomy 6 4 is echoed with what this line says when

[36:36]the person asks about god and understanding that he would ever say

[36:45]that he is god he makes it clear never ever would he

[36:49]say god the christians out of their love they went too far

[36:51]what did they say out of their love they said that jesus

[36:55]is god did the muslims do the same about imam salam yes

[36:59]some of course by the way say you shia all of you

[37:02]believe imam ali is good not all of us no no no

[37:05]i know you'd want to spread that and i know that unfortunately

[37:09]there are people who love to spread these things believe you me

[37:12]if i go to a part of bangladesh today or a part

[37:15]of indonesia i'm going to mention these two countries bangladesh or indonesia

[37:20]believe you me there has been enough mobellerin i don't know who

[37:28]have gone to these countries and said shia i believe ali is

[37:31]god how do we know this you know when you meet in

[37:35]hajj or umrah you meet someone from bangladesh or you meet someone

[37:40]from indonesia true indonesia is the country with the most muslims in

[37:46]the world indonesia has over 200 million muslims more than any other

[37:50]country in the world a person goes there imagine one of these

[37:53]indonesians asked what is a shia shia worship ali you generalized 300

[38:00]million people in one statement shia worship no we do not worship

[38:06]ali there is no way that we worship ali did we have

[38:10]some who took imam ali out of their love to worship yes

[38:15]no doubt if you look in our history amongst them for example

[38:18]you will see the nuseries he was in the time of imam

[38:25]in the time of imam he was of those who would say

[38:30]that i am one of the doors to imam al-hadi one of

[38:31]the doors to imam al-askari and he would also his followers would

[38:36]raise imam ali's status above imam above nubu and even to a

[38:43]level of god there were some who would look at certain ayaat

[38:48]of the quran in the wheel of the ayah they say that

[38:49]this proves ali is god let me give you an example how

[38:52]many of you have read the ayah for salawat the ayah for

[38:57]salah allah how the funeral prayer said okay so if imam ali

[39:32]you admit let the funeral prayer allah says his angels they are

[39:47]the ones who pray over so whoever prayed over the prophet must

[39:50]be god look at it what happened to the christians what happened

[39:55]to the christians was that unfortunately shaytan whispered certain thoughts that made

[40:02]them exaggerate the level of jesus likewise the muslims why you ask

[40:08]why would some shia splinter groups whether they're called alawia in some

[40:13]cases and by the way when i say alois we have to

[40:16]be careful because there are alois who are pure nubu if not

[40:19]but because of volume and oppression people don't know their real beliefs

[40:24]but some may have had a direction where the wheel of ayat

[40:26]went on that you know why they say we believe ali is

[40:31]definitely god you say why said who could do what he did

[40:34]only god could do what he did at khaibar because we see

[40:38]at khaibar on the way back from khebar you know what rasulullah

[40:41]said he said yeah i want to praise you more but i

[40:51]fear that if i praise you more then these muslims will jump

[40:56]on each other toward to pick up the dust from under your

[41:02]feet and to use it to cure themselves imagine imagine because what

[41:07]imam ali done no one could do imam ali when he came

[41:11]to marhab what did he say to him i'm the one whose

[41:15]mother named him haidar yes haider means one of the lions likewise

[41:21]jesus in the book of revelations 5 5 is known as the

[41:27]lion of judah look at the similarity jesus jesus the lion of

[41:32]judah imam ali the lion of rasulullah what imam ali did on

[41:38]that day a sahaba couldn't lift if they came together couldn't lift

[41:42]the gates he lifted the gate of khaibar in a way no

[41:46]one else could lift some people looked at this they said wait

[41:49]if jesus can cure the dead if jesus can cure the blind

[41:54]if jesus can cure the leper if ali can raise the gate

[41:57]of khaibar in a way which 70 people cannot lift the gate

[42:01]they said you know our love has taken us to a level

[42:03]where you jesus must be god and you ali must be god

[42:08]jesus whatever i am doing is with the permission of allah what

[42:22]i have lifted on this day of i have lifted not with

[42:28]the strength that is physical allah it's with the strength that is

[42:33]spiritual my lord is the one who says to me my servant

[42:35]obey me and i'll let you reach the level of kun fayakun

[42:39]so therefore you found that these groups how do the maraja of

[42:45]the shia let's say the authorities or how did the imams who

[42:48]are the ultimate how do they view someone who says imam ali

[42:52]is god that person has to be executed was of those who

[42:59]believed imam ali was god imam ali used to stand on the

[43:01]pulpits in kufa when he begins the lecture look at the groups

[43:06]that would look at him subhanallah rasulullah the way you said it

[43:10]is exact one side of the mambar they'll someone will say this

[43:15]is the most eloquent liar in kufa the other side of the

[43:18]member someone would say in the same mosque in kufa you had

[43:26]the one who would slander him yes you will have someone who

[43:31]will slander him until he or someone who loves him until he

[43:36]goes too extreme and then you'll have someone who will hate him

[43:38]until he'll try and bring down from the imam therefore the imams

[43:44]of what was their opinion the imams of bates would turn around

[43:48]and say such people are negis they are impure the one who

[43:53]says imam ali alayhi salam is god is njis because there are

[43:56]categories of najas of the categories of the impure the imams mentioned

[44:01]and nasa be the one who curses imam ali because is there

[44:07]a greater slander than to curse imam ali the one who calls

[44:13]imam ali god this one is but not just legends they've done

[44:16]on such people such people were the worst you can't turn around

[44:24]and says and then turn around and the one who says imam

[44:31]ali is god and say well no there's no problem with them

[44:36]because minba this is very important point there are people bishop in

[44:42]their poetry they try and raise imam ali to a level of

[44:45]the whole art of the extreme but you know what people say

[44:49]no no no this is just poetry no for allah this is

[44:53]shirk this is disgusting some people even turn around and say well

[44:56]you know albeit have a hadith that as long as you don't

[45:00]call us divine you can attribute to us whatever you want this

[45:02]is also nonsense as well this is also nonsense because this gives

[45:07]an excuse to people to put a little bait in a position

[45:10]even did not want we have to be careful from falling in

[45:13]the trap that the christian community fell in the christians because of

[45:18]their love for nabi erisa alaihissalam started putting jesus above allah and

[45:25]we the shia have to be careful we do not reach a

[45:29]level where we begin to put ali above allah believe you me

[45:33]this could easily affect us how can it affect us i'll tell

[45:38]you how when it's shahada till amir all of us come to

[45:43]the mosque 19 20 21 all of us are wearing black all

[45:44]of us will give hidma all of us will look after each

[45:50]other but then the rest of the year we go back to

[45:51]our normal lifestyles why as long as i'm there in ramadan and

[45:56]that's enough here what have we done in some cases we have

[46:00]put a halal bait here and the rest of the worship of

[46:05]allah we've compartmentalized and i'll give you the best example there are

[46:09]some there are some they come to majalis and muharram they're wearing

[46:13]hijab for abba abdullah hijab comes on ten nights for imam amir

[46:22]meaning three nights hijab comes on when they come to the mosque

[46:25]but the rest of the year it is not muharram or safar

[46:31]or ramadan i'm not putting such people down i'm just showing you

[46:36]just be careful you don't begin to place ali and hussain above

[46:40]allah to become servants of allah worshipers of allah therefore the christians

[46:55]reached to a level where they called jesus god the muslims reached

[47:00]to a level where they called ali god what was the proof

[47:05]that jesus was not and ali was not the biggest proof there's

[47:11]the jude if you're god you don't worship anyone do you does

[47:16]god worship god no how do you then prove that you're not

[47:20]god that is when you pray then you are proving that you

[47:26]are not god in the bible does jesus show us his prayers

[47:30]to the eternal lord who he says has sent him as his

[47:36]messenger chapter of john 17 you'll see it clearly mentioned there that's

[47:40]why mohammad alaihi was one day asked by a priest who do

[47:45]you think is greater jesus or muhammad sallam said jesus was great

[47:52]there is no doubt outstanding but no one's greater than rasulullah the

[47:59]priest said what do you mean he said because the holy prophet

[48:04]uh prayed and fasted more than jesus the priest said how dare

[48:10]you say that that someone prayed more than our lord jesus imam

[48:14]allah salaam said if he is your lord can you tell me

[48:18]who he was praying to beautiful answer from imam you're saying jesus

[48:23]is god but you admit in the bible he has prayers he

[48:28]talks of the eternal he talks of the lord and he talks

[48:30]of himself as being sent by the lord so jesus for us

[48:34]yes he was sent by the lord imam and rather says but

[48:38]if you say jesus prayed more than muhammad who was he praying

[48:40]to if he is god that's on the one hand those who

[48:44]are saying that jesus is god that was and those who said

[48:46]imam ali and that he would go down in sujood to allah

[48:59]if imam was good then imam would not do sujood yes imam

[49:05]would not go down in the raku but you found what did

[49:10]imam ali love the most in his life his roku and his

[49:12]subhanallah nothing was more beloved to imam than his roku and his

[49:20]sujood and his two greatest moments were in his record and institute

[49:25]in his when the poor man walks around the mosque in medina

[49:31]may allah bless us to go to masjid and naba insha allah

[49:34]when the poor man walks in the mosque in medina and he

[49:38]looks around and he's looking for someone to help him who is

[49:41]there who's going to help me who is there who's going to

[49:45]be there for me i'm a poor man imam amir al-mumiya just

[49:50]begun his salah salah is the mirage of the men when you

[49:54]pray properly you can reach the highest levels where the veils between

[49:57]you and god are slowly being removed that poor man asks when

[50:02]someone asks a dua when someone asks and supplicates allah answers but

[50:08]how does allah answer by using some of us as the was

[50:11]allah uses some of us for us to be the ones who

[50:17]answer the dua of that person imam amir al-maniyan begun he managed

[50:23]to reach his wanted to answer the dua for her to suckle

[50:37]her baby and to put him in the basket could allah and

[50:54]how did he inspire him just put out your finger and that

[50:58]person will see and will know that his daughter has been answered

[51:01]and the quran revealed the verse in surah 5 verse 55 bismillah

[51:18]and those who believe not any of those who believe those who

[51:24]establish salah and give zakat while they're in a state of roku

[51:32]whoever takes allah as his guardian and his prophet and those who

[51:38]believe it's not enough for you to take allah as your welly

[51:40]and his prophet you must take allah yet and his rasool tickle

[51:52]is not complete without taking the washi of the prophet of allah

[51:57]yet [Applause] they are the party of allah they are the victorious

[52:06]ones why do they say ali and his are victorious because we

[52:10]held on to the man who allah was transferred to in his

[52:17]record he achieved the level of why we say ash then in

[52:22]his on a night like this the night of the 19th of

[52:26]ramadan a night that breaks the heart of every believer every single

[52:30]one of you out there i know i don't even need to

[52:32]go into a muslim if in his rook he achieved such greatness

[52:37]then you find without a doubt in his the greatness that he

[52:42]achieved on this night he loved his to highlight that none is

[52:50]worthy of being worshipped but allah subhanahu wa and that's why we

[52:55]find on a night like this it's a difficult night for zainab

[52:59]and a difficult night for um and a difficult night for whom

[53:06]and a difficult night at the same time the moment came towards

[53:14]the imam the imam was in his eben came from the rose

[53:21]behind and he struck him on the top of his head the

[53:28]sudden another call came from the heavens the whole the call that

[53:43]we all remember every year the call that breaks the heart of

[53:47]every lover of ali abner from the father's head abba abdullah came

[54:13]towards the head of his father abba abdullah held the head of

[54:17]his father he placed it on his lap [Music] took their father

[55:02]they begun to walk towards the entrance of the mosque as they

[55:06]were coming closer to it their father was bending and he was

[55:12]limping as they were leaving the mosque their father turned round to

[55:15]them he said to them do me one favor they said to

[55:23]him father what is it he said let me stand straight and

[55:25]they said to him father why do you want to stand straight

[55:29]he said i can see zayn about the door and i don't

[55:43]she came out of the house she was wondering what happened to

[55:50]her father she looked for the distance as she could see her

[55:53]father being carried by hassan and hussain and then the poets described

[56:00]her with her words it kills me it kills me one light

[56:06]kills me to see my father in pain listen to these lines

[56:10]the poet describes it wonderfully it kills me it kills me it

[56:16]kills me to see my father in pain any of you have

[56:21]lost your father this is for you remember your father when he

[56:23]died remember your feeling it kills me it kills me to see

[56:54]couldn't take that one injury if that one injury broke you i

[56:58]was saying upon that night and then how about the injuries of

[57:04]the temple if one injury of the imam broke your heart then

[57:10]tell me whenever raise your hands my dear brothers and sisters we
