[0:18]my dear brothers and sisters I would like to congratulate you all

[0:26]on the onset of the onset of the holy month of rajab

[0:31]that will begin tomorrow inshallah Saturday will be rajab 1 it is

[0:41]one of the uh three holiest months in the lunar calendar rajab

[0:49]uh uh and in Islam those are considered the most holiest one

[0:57]of course we have Ramadan is it's holier than them all but

[1:03]in a different sense inshallah I will talk in one night about

[1:08]the significance of those holy four months of and and what does

[1:16]it mean to say they are holy ra the month of rajab

[1:26]precedes Ramadan by one month so we have rajab then we have

[1:29]shaan and then we have Ramadan so shahan separates between the month

[1:33]of rajab and the month of Ramadan in the month of rajab

[1:40]there are many events the first event occurs in the first day

[1:45]of rajab meaning tomorrow and it is the birth of our fifth

[1:50]IM Al IM Muhammad Bak we have 12 imams so our fifth

[1:56]Imam Al IM Muhammad Al Bak who father is IM whose son

[2:04]is IM IM Muhammad was born in such a day in uh

[2:13]1 of rajab of year 57 hijri hijri now what is this

[2:20]year this year is 1437 Ya Allah sh no one got [Music]

[2:38]hurt just me the water the water as long as no one

[2:45]got hurt so do another Salat alhamdulillah uh they say a guy

[3:00]uh his wife heard a noise big noise on the second the

[3:08]floor and she went hurly up uh upstairs to see what's going

[3:16]on and she asked her husband what was that noise for he

[3:23]told her that uh my pants fell down she says your pants

[3:26]your pant doesn't make that much noise he says because I was

[3:33]in it so alhamdulillah no one was in that uh uh accident

[3:36]no one got hurt in that accident so IM Muhammad was born

[3:47]rajab 1 and the name Muhammad you know every Imam has a

[3:51]name and a title every one of our 12 imams so his

[3:55]name is Muhammad his title is Al we we believe that the

[4:02]Imam was named by the prophet himself all our imams were named

[4:07]by the prophet their name and their title so Muhammad is obviously

[4:13]what it means he was named after Prophet Muhammad s and the

[4:24]title b means the Exploder the word Bak means the Exploder the

[4:30]the one who exploded knowledge the one who was revolutionary in bringing

[4:36]a new uh a new era of knowledge and Islamic education IM

[4:47]Bak was known to be the first official formal Professor giving lessons

[4:54]at the Masjid of the Prophet now you know in Islam our

[5:02]Learning Centers our Learning Centers are not like the West in the

[5:07]west you have a church you have a university in the early

[5:13]history of Islam The Learning Centers were combined with our worship centers

[5:20]meaning our own masques have been turned into Learning Centers so the

[5:26]mjid of the Prophet was the first Learning Center the first University

[5:34]in Islam the Masjid of the prophet in Medina Al IM Muhammed

[5:39]Bak was the first formal Professor giving jurist Prudence classes in the

[5:49]mjid meaning before him others may have given classes but informally the

[5:55]Imam our Imam Muhammad Al bakar was the first to have an

[6:04]formal position of teaching in the Masid he had many students among

[6:11]them is Abu hanifah the head of the hanafi school of thought

[6:15]remember Abu hanifah studied with Al IM ja sad as well Im

[6:18]bak's son but his first teacher was IM Bak before Imad just

[6:31]for your knowledge if you go to Beirut there are many streets

[6:36]in Beirut are named after he is a well-known jurist why there

[6:44]are many streets and land marks in Lebanon named after him any

[6:48]clue actually there's a University in Beirut called any clue why because

[6:57]he's Lebanese Al IM is Lebanese he's from Lebanon at that time

[7:02]lebanan was not called Lebanon it was called what belad sham so

[7:07]he came from Lebanon to Medina to study at the masas and

[7:14]the IM IM Muhammad was his first teacher so the IM was

[7:21]the first professor of that University if you read the biography IM

[7:25]Muhammad Al Bak it's a unique personality he was named by his

[7:32]grandfather history tells us that the last surviving companion of the Prophet

[7:39]keep that in mind always this is good public information for you

[7:46]who is the last surviving companion of the Prophet The Prophet had

[7:50]how many any clue how many companions any clue any number yes

[7:58]was huh okay but what number any clue how many companions okay

[8:05]just make a wild guest 12 huh 12 12 120,000 20,000 no

[8:17]12,000 120,000 no the formal number of the companions of the Prophet

[8:22]is estimated between 6,000 to 12,000 6,000 to 12,000 people who are

[8:33]known to be the companions of the Prophet I'm not talking about

[8:37]the family of the Prophet don't confuse the two the imams are

[8:43]12 we're not talking about the imams the infallible imams we're talking

[8:47]about the companions of the Prophet those who saw the prophet and

[8:51]they listen to his Hadith and basically they sat with him they

[8:55]listen to him they basically witness the prophet at firstand so the

[9:03]last one the last surviving companion is a companion named jabb abdah

[9:11]ansar he was a very honorable man a knowledgeable man and a

[9:19]Pious man jabber during the time of the Prophet was very young

[9:25]he may he may be in his 20s and he lived for

[9:32]almost 70 years after the prophet so he died while he is

[9:36]in his 90s so during his last days before he dies he

[9:45]used to sit at the Masjid Prophet Masjid in Medina and he

[9:51]would say where are you Bak where are you back some people

[9:54]thought he is he might be hallucinating he may have Alzheimer and

[10:01]some people would approach him and would ask him why are you

[10:08]saying this what is this name you're mentioning frequently he says because

[10:13]the prophet told me that I will not die till I see

[10:18]a grandson of his who's named albak one day jabir the companion

[10:25]was walking in the street of Medina in the small alleys of

[10:31]Medina he saw a bunch of kids playing and among them there

[11:43]special Salam to you from your grandfather the prophet who told me

[11:48]a jabber you will live enough you will live long till you

[11:56]meet a grandson of mine whose first name is mine and his

[11:59]title is Al so if you see him the prophet is saying
