[0:14]foreign last week we were still speaking about the disobedience of iblis

[0:54]may allah curse him and how he refrained from prostrating for adam

[1:00]we mentioned uh how the beliefs performed according to imam assad and

[1:09]so we shed light on the concept of priyas what is kriyas

[1:13]and how it should not be used um when deriving islamic laws

[1:20]because according to us was used to derive islamic laws then it

[1:26]would terminate islam it would annihilate islam after the lesson if you

[1:35]remember we had a few questions that were posed and some of

[1:39]them pertain to the concept of the ass we saw clearly how

[1:43]chaos does not work with our islamic set of laws we stopped

[1:50]at a tradition by imam assad the prostration of the angels for

[2:02]adam we said ultimately allah is the only being in existence that

[2:05]deserves to be worshiped there are multiple types of tahit multiple forms

[2:17]of tawheed one of them is unity in worship what does that

[2:25]mean it means one cannot worship any being other than allah and

[2:31]the only being who deserves to be worshiped is allah subhanahu wa

[2:39]that being said when we come to sajdah sujud is an act

[2:44]of worship so a question comes to mind when we read the

[2:48]the verses that speak about the angels prostrating for adam and that

[2:56]is how could they have prostrated for adam when they should only

[3:01]prostrate for allah they should only worship allah so we said we'll

[3:06]read a few traditions which explain this sajdah and how it was

[3:15]not a form of worship for adam alaihissalam we started off with

[3:21]a hadith by imam alaihi salat was salaam let us re-read the

[3:25]first portion of the hadith which we already read and explained and

[3:29]we'll continue wherever we left off the imam was asked can someone

[3:38]actually prostrate for someone other than allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala the imam said

[3:44]what he said no so then the person asked the imam he

[3:50]said if that's the case then how come allah how come allah

[4:00]wa'ta'ala commanded the angels to prostrate for adam so the imam said

[4:09]said he who prostrates due to allah's command because allah subhanahu wa

[4:15]is telling him to prostrate that person or that individual has truly

[4:19]prostrated for allah azzawajal then he said allah he said as he

[4:31]was explaining further he said that this individual's prostration was for god

[4:37]because it was a result of god's command so is telling us

[4:44]that ultimately since allah told the angels to prostrate then their prostration

[4:51]is a worship for who it's a form of worship for god

[4:54]azzawajan suppose that tomorrow for example allah subhanahu wa ta'ala tells all

[5:01]of us somehow to prostrate for uh imam i'm not saying this

[5:08]is going to happen i'm saying suppose allah directs a command to

[5:13]us telling us prostrate for imam al-mullah what should we do at

[5:18]that point obviously we should prostrate for him because if you prostrate

[5:21]for him due to allah's command you are in reality prostrating for

[5:26]allah azzawajal bear in mind of course bear in mind that according

[5:30]to our islamic set of laws as we said last week according

[5:34]to our islamic set of laws we are not allowed to prostrate

[5:39]for anyone other than allah azza not even for it uh thus

[5:49]we have uh beautiful traditions that are in reality uh part of

[5:56]ziara part of the ziyarahs of ahmed bay you know when we

[6:00]visit the imams teach us what to say and in certain ziadas

[6:08]we're told to perform what we call salat salat here someone who

[6:17]doesn't know our traditions well and someone who's not familiar with the

[6:23]shihaz and their beliefs might believe that we're praying for the imams

[6:28]and we're actually doing salat for the infallible when that's not the

[6:33]case in some of those yadas we have a dua right after

[6:37]the prayer right after salat ziyarah which explains what is long story

[6:43]short it's a prayer done for allah which is sent as a

[6:51]gift to the imam in clearer terms it's a prayer done for

[6:58]god you're worshiping allah and not the imam when you're praying that

[7:01]particular prayer but you send the reward of the prayer to the

[7:10]imam so it's a gift that you sent to the imam in

[7:13]the dua that we recite after salatu ziyarah the imam teaches us

[7:18]to say that ya allah this prayer has been done for you

[7:26]and only you and in it he teaches us to say ya

[7:34]allah one cannot perform nor nor can he pray for anyone other

[7:39]than you hence we said last week that we cannot bow down

[7:43]for certain creations or any creation similarly we cannot do sujud for

[7:52]any creation he is a slave of god who was created by

[8:10]god why was he created by god he says he was created

[8:18]by god to worship god and to believe in his unity so

[8:21]the imam al-islam is revealing for us that ultimately even iblees the

[8:27]arch enemy of god was created for a good reason he was

[8:32]created to be good and not to be evil then he said

[8:48]he already knew what was iblis and what shall he become in

[8:55]the future as in he knew that this individual will rebel against

[8:59]allah at a certain point and will turn into a devil fellaini

[9:08]yes angels of god until he was tested through the prostration for

[9:22]adam said refused to prostrate for adam out of what out of

[9:35]envy then he said was is the opposite of sahada so shakawa

[9:48]means unhappiness and sahada means happiness so the imam is saying that

[9:58]ibilis refused to prostrate for adam alaihissalam for two reasons one was

[10:06]his envy and the other was his unhappiness he says that the

[10:13]unhappiness of iblis overwhelmed him or his unhappiness defeated him what does

[10:20]that mean bear in mind i'm giving you a literal translation of

[10:23]the hadith right now when he says we want to understand this

[10:27]part what does this part actually mean ultimately iblees is like us

[10:37]humans humans engines are similar from our perspective they're similar when it

[10:41]comes to tech leaf both creations are demanded by god subhana ta'ala

[10:49]to obey him both creations were given the power to understand and

[10:56]they were given free will thus jinns and humans may be good

[11:06]believers and jinns and humans may be bad disbelievers in better terms

[11:11]both of these creations have the option of obeying allah and dwelling

[11:19]in heaven or disobeying allah and dwelling in hell fire hence as

[11:25]we've said before there are jinns who are mu'minim [Music] there are

[11:40]certain lines of poetry written in the books of makkatin the books

[11:46]called makta there are certain lines of poetry that were recited by

[11:54]the jinns jinns had recited these lines of poetry mourning which jinns

[11:59]are these obviously not iblees and not the likes of these rather

[12:04]they were jinns like us individuals who loved on the other hand

[12:10]there are jinns who are disobedient they are obedient to ibilis and

[12:17]disobedient to god the same applies to mankind you have good humans

[12:22]and you have evil humans although everyone essentially was what was good

[12:29]everyone was created pure but the jinns and the humans sometimes deviate

[12:35]and choose to be evil that being said now we can understand

[12:40]what the the meaning of since both of these creations humans and

[12:46]jinns have free will and have the option of obeying allah or

[12:52]disobeying him this means that both of them have the option of

[13:02]being happy or unhappy in the hereafter how will you be happy

[13:07]you'll be happy in the hereafter if you dwell in heaven and

[13:10]you'll be unhappy if you dwell in hell fire so when the

[13:15]imam says he means to say that there was some part in

[13:26]iblis which called him to do what which called him to sin

[13:29]and he gave into that part he gave into that part in

[13:36]him which called him to disobey allah subhana wa he gave into

[13:42]that part and as a result became unhappy he became what from

[13:47]the dwellers of hellfire the sad thing about shaipan is what the

[13:53]sad thing is he himself sealed his fate he himself chose to

[14:03]dwell in hellfire why do i say this because even though he

[14:10]disobeyed allah subhanahu wa tahalah by refusing to prostrate for adam he

[14:16]could have apologized to god and he could have said ya allah

[14:23]i'm sorry i went through a moment of arrogance i don't know

[14:26]what happened to me you know i felt weak against my desire

[14:29]or my anger etc and now i want to repent and i'm

[14:34]going to do sajdah for adam you know if he did not

[14:39]allah would have eventually accepted his repentance the web means what it's

[14:44]one of his names it means he is a god who accepts

[14:46]repentance and abundance not once or twice he keeps on accepting the

[14:53]repentance of his creations and he is rahim extremely merciful so if

[14:58]he actually turned to god and said ya allah say i'm sorry

[15:04]i did wrong and it was an hour of weakness now i

[15:07]want to do sajdah for adam allah would have accepted his repentance

[15:13]but the problem is what the problem is he persisted at sinning

[15:16]and up until today he still persists and will continue to persist

[15:22]in sinning until the day until the day of his death instead

[15:28]of using his life his long life to actually repent he's using

[15:33]it to do what to exact his revenge upon adam through me

[15:38]and you by deviating me and you which is quite unfortunate then

[15:46]the imam said at that point when he refused to prostrate for

[15:55]adam allah cursed him cursing him means what remember we explained the

[16:00]meaning of cursing last week it means he pushed him away from

[16:03]his mercy out of the ranks of the angels and that indicates

[16:20]that his level dropped in the eyes of god he dropped from

[16:24]the level of an angel to a devil he became the devil

[16:30]next he says and allah brought him down to earth so when

[16:43]he was brought down to earth he was not brought down to

[16:48]earth with honor with respect rather he was kicked out or exiled

[16:54]from the place in which he would reside that indicates that allah

[17:03]was angry at iblis sometimes you have creations of god that come

[17:08]down to earth but they come down with honor they come down

[17:13]within with a holy mission for example the angels the angels every

[17:19]night of destiny come down to earth right allah says that the

[17:27]angels and the spirit come down every night of destiny they came

[17:34]down last year and they'll come down next year inshallah in shah

[17:38]ramadan they come down upon who according to our traditions they come

[17:41]down upon the the proof of allah on earth so they used

[17:50]to come down on rasulallah when he was the proof of god

[17:54]on earth then they used to come down upon amir al-m when

[17:57]he was the proof of god on earth and today they come

[18:02]down on sahaba may allah is reappearance since he is the proof

[18:05]of allah subhanahu wa on earth this of course doesn't make our

[18:10]imams prophets keep that in mind the last prophet is muhammad sallallahu

[18:14]alaihi wasallam but this is something that uh the proofs of allah

[18:23]who are prophets and non-prophets share they share this uh trait that

[18:31]the angels and the rooh descend upon them on the night of

[18:35]destiny when the angels come down it's not that they're coming down

[18:39]because allah is angry with them right they're coming down with a

[18:43]mission with a holy mission with iblees no he came down because

[18:53]allah kicked him out from where he was residing due to that

[19:05]reason iblees became the enemy of adam and his children uh what

[19:25]kind of powers does iblees have when coming to uh misguiding people

[19:33]can he force people into sin can he actually you know force

[19:39]me to drink wine force me to walk to a bar or

[19:44]force me to listen to music etc the imam said no he

[19:46]said yes he became your enemy but the only thing he could

[19:50]do the only thing he can do is call you to sin

[19:56]and whisper so shaytan can only encourage us to sin meaning he

[20:04]adds fuel to the fire i'm not sure if you remember but

[20:09]we said before that there is a part in us fallible human

[20:15]beings in the fallible human beings called enera this part calls us

[20:22]to do what to sin to disobey allah so you can consider

[20:28]this to be an inner devil an inner a devil elise may

[20:36]allah and other shayateen such as other jinns or certain human beings

[20:42]they add fuel to the fire they aid this inner coal but

[20:46]they can't force you if you don't want to sin you're not

[20:50]going to say it they add pressure on you shaytan beautifies the

[20:55]sin because he wants you to do it so he beautifies it

[21:00]for you he tries to strengthen your you know desire or anger

[21:04]but ultimately it's your choice and my choice then the imam says

[21:16]this is a marvelous segment he says even though iblis disobeyed allah

[21:25]he still acknowledged that allah is the lord of the universe so

[21:32]he never denied the fact that allah was the lord in existence

[21:38]he never denied allah's lordship thus you you see in the quran

[21:43]he asks allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala to do what to delay his punishment

[21:48]and to grant him respite that in itself indicates that he's admitting

[21:54]allah is the lord in this universe because he's asking him to

[21:59]grant him his need and that's part of what lordship part of

[22:07]lordship is that allah fulfills your needs do we have a question

[22:25]on this hadith before i continue no questions let's move on to

[22:52]another hadith there's another hadith by imam let me copy and paste

[23:10]the hadith for you it's a long hadith it's a long hadith

[23:16]found in the book in it imam [Music] he mentioned certain events

[23:36]that took place and he mentions how are superior to the angels

[23:42]so one reason that he presents to explain how they're superior to

[23:47]the angels is the prostration for adam what does he say he

[23:53]says he says surely then created adam and he instilled us in

[24:09]his son means spine my arabic knowledge based on the the the

[24:26]meaning of soul of that dictionaries present solo in this context is

[24:33]the uh spine or you can say the vertebral colon or the

[24:37]backbone so he says that instilled us instill them their lights where

[24:48]in adam's spine or in a part of adam then he says

[24:56][Music] then he commanded the angels to prostrate for adam so the

[25:11]first reason allah commanded the angels to prostrate for adam alaihissalam and

[25:17]the first reason why he commanded them to prosecute for adam was

[25:20]so that they glorify a little bit he says so they glorify

[25:28]us and they honor us then he says he says that when

[25:39]they prostrated they were prostrating and their prostration was a form of

[25:43]worship to god and they were honoring adam through that prostration he

[25:57]says and they were honoring adam and they were submitting to adam

[26:03]because we were in his spine or in that specific part of

[26:07]adam then he how can we not be greater than thee angels

[26:24]how could we not be greater than the angels when all of

[26:29]them all of the angels prostrated for adam so a long story

[26:32]short imam allah saying that the angels were commanded to prostrate for

[26:37]adam because we ah were placed inside adam which is a clear

[26:49]proof indicating that or superior to the angels of god salah we

[26:56]have a third tradition found in the book tafsir al-haskeri al-haskeri which

[27:06]is a book containing um explanations of imam al-assad uh concerning the

[27:18]verses and surat al-baqarah in it imam and askari is narrated to

[27:24]have said that the angels when the angels prostrated for adam adam

[27:30]was their qiblah he was their qibla so adam to the angels

[27:34]was like the kaaba to us when we prostrate towards the kaaba

[27:39]we're doing so why because allah told us when you pray face

[27:45]the kaaba and when you prostrate in prayer face that god correct

[27:48]but are you worshiping the kaaba no you're facing it you're directing

[27:54]yourself to it because allah told you to do so but in

[28:00]reality you're worshiping god and the same applies to adam according to

[28:05]imam alaska he was their qibla and they prostrated towards adam when

[28:11]in reality the prostration was for allah give us a clear idea

[28:27]regarding the sajdah of the angels and how it was not a

[28:33]form of worship for adam that being said we move on to

[28:52]a new verse in surat al-baqarah verse 35 allah so here we

[29:14]see that the story of adam are in his heaven or his

[29:22]garden begins the story begins and remember this is the main reason

[29:27]why we are uh learning about adam we want to understand what

[29:30]took place when he was in that garden and how does his

[29:37]so-called disobedience not contradict his inflatability up until now what have we

[29:44]confirmed we need to remember the main points that we've confirmed based

[29:48]on the quran and we've confirmed that was created to reside where

[29:57]reside on earth he was created to come down to earth keep

[30:02]that point in mind in khalifa was created for earth not for

[30:08]that garden of his not for that jannah secondly we've confirmed that

[30:13]adam is superior to the angels and that adam was not like

[30:20]was not as some people like to say or ignorant on the

[30:30]contrary the prophet prophet adam had immense knowledge and i believe the

[30:36]verses that we dissected when allah tells him shows us that indeed

[30:43]he was not a dumb or gullible human being rather he was

[30:49]knowledgeable he had immense knowledge he had knowledge that was part of

[30:54]the knowledge of the unseen with allah's permission of course so we've

[31:00]confirmed that he was created for earth he was created to come

[31:05]down to earth he is superior to the angels that he had

[31:10]immense knowledge knowledge that not even the angels of god had and

[31:13]last but not least all of the angels were commanded to prostrate

[31:18]for adam it's essential to keep these points in mind in order

[31:23]to understand his story in the god so we start with verse

[31:26]35 of surat al-baqarah allah says and we said o adam dwell

[31:34]you and your wife in the garden and eat from it a

[31:38]plenty is food wherever you wish and do not approach this tree

[31:42]or then you will be of the unjust this is of course

[31:47]the translation of shakir pertaining to verse 35 of surat al-baqarah when

[31:52]we read this verse several questions come to mind several questions i

[31:58]don't think we'll have time to answer all these questions tonight but

[32:03]uh let's pose them or let's pose some of these questions the

[32:09]first one is what is the jannah of what is it was

[32:18]it the jannah the paradise that the believers will enter on the

[32:24]day of judgment or not that's one question second question which comes

[32:33]to mind is when allah says do not approach this tree what

[32:39]kind of command is this it's a command right he's telling him

[32:44]not to approach the tree so what kind of command is it

[32:50]that's a very important question thirdly what's so special about this tree

[32:56]when he says do not approach this tree what's so special about

[33:07]it in order for god subhanallah to tell not to approach it

[33:15]and lastly um what will happen if he approaches it what will

[33:20]happen if adam approaches that tree now before i start uh at

[33:27]least answering the first question um we need to understand one point

[33:33]and that is adam's story adam's story in the garden uh that

[33:41]story has been mentioned in the holy quran three times yeah it's

[33:47]been mentioned in surah al-baqarah surah in surah summarizes the story whereas

[33:59]in taha he gives much more detail so in order to understand

[34:03]it wow we need to do what we need to connect the

[34:06]verses together we need to connect the verses together to have a

[34:11]full understanding of the story or a better understanding of the story

[34:15]in sha allah let's start off with the first question what was

[34:21]the paradise in which adam alaihissalam sorry not the paradise the garden

[34:25]in which adam and eve was told to reside what was that

[34:38]gordon here it's important to understand the meaning of jannah from a

[34:44]literal perspective jannah the word jannah has three root letters when these

[34:59]three letters are the root letters of a particular word they indicate

[35:06]that uh something is being concealed something is being hidden let me

[35:11]give you an example what do we call a fetus in arabic

[35:17]ephedus is called asian right the root letters of janine are what

[35:31]jim noon noon why is it called jeanine because you can't see

[35:37]it it's hidden in the mother's womb in its mother's womb a

[35:41]second example what do we call a madman in arabic someone who's

[35:48]crazy again the three root letters are jim noon why do air

[36:04]people why do the arabs call someone who is delusional majnun because

[36:08]it's as if his intellect is what concealed there's something blocking that

[36:14]individual from using his intellect that's the second example a third example

[36:24]is jin's these creations that we can't see are called what jinns

[36:35]the root that root letters are what jim noon noon they're called

[36:41]jinns because you don't see them there's a barrier between humans and

[36:44]these so-called jinns the same applies to jannah the literal meaning of

[36:54]jannah is gordon that's why i kept on saying the gordon of

[36:57]adam the gordon of adam the literal meaning of jannah is gordon

[37:03]why do arabs call a gordon jannah because for one of two

[37:09]reasons if not both because parts of the gordon can seal other

[37:16]parts or because due to its uh plants and herbs the the

[37:25]the color green sometimes uh is is viewed as if it's black

[37:36]so due to the abundant amount of green plants and herbs you'll

[37:45]you'll realize that some parts of the garden are being concealed so

[37:53]the issue goes back to what to concealment if we understand this

[37:59]then we'll understand that when allah says doesn't have to be the

[38:13]abode of the believers on the day of judgment it doesn't have

[38:19]to be that because any garden any garden even the gardens we

[38:24]have outside our houses can be called janna the gordon you have

[38:29]in the backyard for example is a jannah it's yours so the

[38:37]word jannah in itself doesn't indicate that adam alaihissalam was told to

[38:45]dwell where he was told to dwell in the heaven the paradise

[38:50]in which believers will dwell on the day of judgment after they

[38:54]receive their judgment of course you might ask me why are you

[38:59]are you telling us this well firstly because about it secondly it

[39:09]can clear up some confusion regarding iblis people sometimes ask how was

[39:19]iblees able to enter the garden of adam didn't allah allah pull

[39:27]him out of heaven didn't he tell him to get out of

[39:34]heaven so how did he come back into heaven one answer is

[39:36]who said he went back into heaven who said the garden of

[39:44]adam was heaven it might have been some sort of garden uh

[39:48]found in a part in this universe outside heaven outside the paradise

[39:54]or the heaven in which the believers will reside on the day

[39:58]of judgment in fact this is what the hadith of multiple hadith

[40:04]speaking about this issue one hadith is the following let me send

[40:11]it to you you can find it in tafsir so the tradition

[40:35]goes back to imam assad he was he was asked was the

[40:46]gordon of adam from the gardens of this world or the gardens

[40:49]of the here after it was from the gardens of this world

[41:03]the the the sun and the moon would rise in that specific

[41:11]garden it's as if that gordon was from the gardens of the

[41:22]hereafter then adam alaihissalam wouldn't have come out of it he would

[41:28]have resided in that garden for eternity because jenna the paradise that

[41:36]insha allah will enter in on a day of judgment um is

[41:41]called janna tilfun if you enter it you don't leave it you

[41:48]remain there yes allah can bring you out if he wants to

[41:50]but he won't the dwellers of heaven once they enter heaven they

[41:58]remain in heaven for eternity forever so according to this hadith imam

[42:05]alaihi is saying if adam was residing in the heaven in paradise

[42:10]then he would he wouldn't have come out of it any questions

[42:51]the second question we posed was what what is this tree that

[43:01]was told not to approach before we answer this question let's go

[43:08]to the third question which was what type of command was allah's

[43:13]command when he said do not approach here we need to understand

[43:20]a really important point brothers and sisters are really important allah's commands

[43:26]are of different types sometimes allah's command is what we call ammur

[43:34]means it means his canaan must be obeyed and if you defy

[43:43]his command you deserve what punishment so any command which falls under

[43:51]this category amer melody you can also call it if you define

[43:59]this type of command you will deserve what punishment from allah because

[44:05]you must perform these commandments for example when allah tells us to

[44:14]pray the five daily prayers allah doesn't give you the choice of

[44:19]defining him or disobeying he tells you have to pray five times

[44:25]a day and if you don't then prepare yourselves for unbearable punishments

[44:32]similarly when allah tells us for example not to fornicate to avoid

[44:40]to refrain from zina or to refrain from drinking wine or eating

[44:45]pork that's he doesn't give you the choice you have to do

[44:51]it if you don't refrain from those deeds then prepare yourselves for

[44:56]what for unbearable punishment in the hereafter these are what examples of

[45:06]amer another example pertaining to adam's story alaihissalam is the command that

[45:10]was directed to the angels when they were told to prostrate that

[45:14]was because we saw as soon as iblees refused to prostrate for

[45:22]adam what did allah do allah casted him out of the ranks

[45:27]of the angels he got angry at him he cursed him and

[45:32]he dropped from the level of an angel to a devil so

[45:35]it was it means he didn't have the choice of refraining from

[45:40]prostrating for adam however not all of god's commands are away we

[45:50]have other types of commands from god for example we have what

[45:58]we call amir nedbi or if you want call it what's the

[46:06]baby it's a command that you can disobey allah perform x y

[46:16]and z but he gives you the option of performing it or

[46:22]not if you perform it he rewards you if you don't perform

[46:28]it he doesn't punch so his armor his command encourages you to

[46:34]do what to actually perform x y and z but it's not

[46:39]a must allah tells that this command can be defined you can

[46:47]disobey it i don't encourage you to disobey but you can if

[46:53]you disobey then you will not be punished in the hereafter do

[46:58]you have examples yes we do plenty of examples think of all

[47:05]the musta you know such as performing tasma after prayer does allah

[47:10]want me to perform after prayer yes he does he wants you

[47:15]to do it meaning he tells you do it after prayer but

[47:23]i have the option of doing it or not if i don't

[47:27]do it he won't punish me yes i will lose a lot

[47:32]of rewards a lot of benefits but that's my loss it's my

[47:36]choice to gain those benefits think of salah it's very recommended highly

[47:45]recommended it was upon rasulallah but upon us it's recommended if i

[47:53]willfully sleep at night no no no every night i wake up

[47:57]for salat and day and i will for this it's not that

[48:01]i sleep and i don't wake up i wake up and i

[48:05]willfully go back to sleep knowing that i'm not going to pray

[48:07]salah today will allah punish me no he won't will i lose

[48:12]a great amount of benefit yes i will it's he tells me

[48:19]praise allah but the choice is mine a third example is fasting

[48:27]fasting in general is mustahab except on certain days it's haram such

[48:32]as the days of eid except on certain days in which it's

[48:35]disliked like for example the day of arafah if you're going to

[48:43]fast knowing that fasting will weaken you it will weaken you and

[48:48]it won't allow you to um supplicate in that case it's disliked

[48:54]to fast the day of arafah or fast in the day of

[49:00]arafah when there's a possibility it's not arafat it's actually here it's

[49:06]also my crew the fast the day of arafah meaning the reward

[49:12]of fasting that day reduces but in general fasting is musta suppose

[49:20]someone does not fast any recommended fast he only fasts the wajib

[49:26]fast such as that's it will allah punish him no will he

[49:33]have lost some benefits yes he will so that's um do we

[49:41]have a third type of amar yes we do amar what's up

[49:51]is a command which reveals for you that if you do a

[49:58]particular deed you will benefit and if you don't do it you

[50:07]will be harmed to a certain extent so it's a it's a

[50:11]command that you can define a command that you can disobey but

[50:15]the person who's commanding you the individual who's commanding you is doing

[50:21]so in order to tell you that um you should watch out

[50:27]and you should do x y and z in order to protect

[50:33]yourself from harm and to gain a particular benefit let me give

[50:38]you an example take the example of uh doctors when a doctor

[50:45]knows you're healthy you have absolutely no health problems but then again

[50:52]he gives you a bit of health advice telling you to eat

[50:57]for example these foods and to refrain from those foods you tell

[51:01]the doctor is it a must do i have to listen to

[51:06]these you know to these words they have to obey you he

[51:10]tells you no if you don't want to obey me that's your

[51:11]choice but i'm telling you to eat these foods because i want

[51:18]you to be healthier and i'm telling you to avoid these foods

[51:26]because i don't want your health to be harmed whatsoever even if

[51:31]the harm is little or small that's um let me give you

[51:37]another example suppose that a child has a karate tournament that he

[51:47]wants to attend and his father tells him not to go to

[51:53]the tournament because he doesn't want him to get hurt now the

[51:58]the father knows that ultimately his child won't die and he won't

[52:03]get harmed severely but out of his compassion he doesn't want his

[52:10]child to bear any harm even if the harm is little or

[52:13]small so he tells him not to go to the tournament that's

[52:17]ahmad because he knows if he goes to the tournament even if

[52:22]he gets the trophy he's going to have to go through it

[52:24]through an amount of pain since he will be facing strong opponents

[52:31]so he tells him don't go to the tournament now the child

[52:37]tells his father uh father jani if i go you will be

[52:41]displeased with me he tells him no no i won't be displeased

[52:44]with you you can still go but i advise you not to

[52:48]go because i don't want you to bear that horn that's what

[52:52]amer now the question is if we've understood these different types of

[53:00]these different types of commands the question is when allah told adam

[53:07]when he told adam which command was that what we can say

[53:25]for sure is it was not there is no doubt it was

[53:32]not amar which explains to us how adam didn't sin ali even

[53:39]though he approached the tree ultimately i think all of us have

[53:46]heard the story adam alaihissalam will approach the tree and he will

[53:51]disobey allah as in he won't you know listen to that specific

[53:57]command even then his deed is not a sin because the amer

[54:03]itself the command was not maulawi it was not a command that

[54:10]he had to perform he had the choice of actually approaching the

[54:18]tree or not was it some of our scholars say yes it

[54:24]was or they inclined towards this opinion like in his book he

[54:35]says or uh he inclines towards this opinion he accepts it or

[54:42]he inclines towards it whereas we have other scholars like this teacher

[54:50]who say so what we need to do now is we need

[54:58]to present proof indicating that the amar the command was not maulawi

[55:04]and that's what we'll we'll we'll be doing inshaallah next week if

[55:08]we're still alive alhamdulillah allah
