[26:49]aami Adan Malad and Anonymous uh please recite on their and the

[26:55]of all the Muslim now with that being said I would like

[27:11]to welcome after Loud salawat I have this right here I'm sorry

[27:57]yeah minan [Music] ald [Music] to accelerate the reappearance of our awaited

[29:21]IM I request we recite three salawat with the loudest of our

[29:27]voices respected brothers and sisters in Islam the verse that we started

[29:51]with is verse number 65 in Surah the cave and continuing our

[29:55]series of lectures of dissecting the story of Na mus and therefore

[30:02]the first that we started with mentions that when met with finally

[30:06]Allah subhanahu wa taala does not mention Alam by name yet he

[30:14]refers to Alam as by saying they that there they found one

[30:17]of our servants and mainly Allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala connects Al relates Al

[30:24]to himself he says that he is from my servants from our

[30:29]servants and then the verse continues as we mentioned in the previous

[30:32]Nights by saying that he was provided with two main things those

[30:34]two attributes will highlight the responsibility that has been given to Al

[30:40]Allah subhana wa tala says that they they found one of our

[30:46]servants whom we had granted Mercy from ourselves and we said that

[30:50]the first attribute that was granted to Alam was a mercy from

[30:54]Allah subhah wa tala and then the verse continues by saying what

[30:57]and taught him knowled from our own so it's a mercy from

[31:02]Allah subhana wa tala and it's a knowledge from Allah subhana wa

[31:05]tala and therefore it is worthy to understand is that when Allah

[31:07]refers to a Ab to a slave to one of his servants

[31:11]as he been granted a mercy from him we need to understand

[31:14]what does that mean because understanding what that means will help us

[31:19]reflect on the Holy Quran and understand that do we have the

[31:25]ability to absorb such a status in the eyes of Allah subhana

[31:27]wa tala and the answer is yes and the perfect answer to

[31:31]this uh to in this regard is what Allah subhanahu wa tala

[31:35]describes that the deves the mer the Servants of the all beneficent

[31:40]in the Holy Quran and as we mentioned before and we always

[31:44]repeat that Quran explains Quran and therefore if we want to understand

[31:48]the Char the characteristics of the servants that Allah subhanahu wa tala

[31:54]provides from his Mercy to them we will open Surah when sorry

[31:57]Surah Alan when we open Surah Alan on verse number 63 we

[32:02]notice that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala highlights the concept of the Servants

[32:06]of the all beneficent in fact if you would notice there are

[32:11]many characterist characteristics mentioned about such servants and how does Allah subhana

[32:16]wa tala identify them and therefore it is worthy for us to

[32:19]understand that is that how can I become one of those deves

[32:21]indeed when I open verse number 63 in Surah Alan I noticed

[32:27]that Allah subhana wa tala Begins by saying right so when Allah

[32:36]subhana says about that we granted him Mercy from us than he

[32:39]is indeed from the rman the devotes the Servants of what the

[32:46]all beneficent isn't it so we notice here that Allah subhana T

[32:49]so we asked Allah is that who are the what are their

[32:52]characteristics what have they been distinguished with we notice here Allah is

[32:58]saying the Servants of the all beneficent the devotes that they devoted

[33:11]themselves to Allah subhana tala that they have been related as the

[33:15]Servants of the all beneficent are those who walk humbly on the

[33:18]earth and when the ignorant address them they say peace peace sorry

[33:23]the so basically the first characteristics that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala identified

[33:28]the Servants of the all beneficent is simply their physical appearance he

[33:35]says what the way they walk focus on the Holy Quran is

[33:38]that why does Allah subhana wa tala goes into such a detail

[33:43]to mention even the way they walk and he says what they

[33:45]walk humbly on the earth so the first point is basically the

[33:50]notion of humbleness that the Servants of the all beneficent are known

[33:54]with their humbleness and that basically refutes the theory as you might

[33:58]know that in the modern day and age that we live there's

[34:00]a theory that always focuses on the appearance does not matter in

[34:05]fact the appearance does matter Allah subhana wa tala here identifies the

[34:09]Servants of the all beneficent by their appearance by their physical appearance

[34:14]meaning how they walk how they carry themselves in public how they

[34:17]act in society and believe it or not there's nothing called that

[34:21]the appearance doesn't matter trust me I'm in the I'm in the

[34:25]field of retail and the first thing that you get trained with

[34:26]um in your training is that no the appearance the physical appearance

[34:32]does matter you are supposed to judge your clients sometimes upon the

[34:35]small details the Minor Details that they might carry with them and

[34:38]therefore sometimes no the physical appearance does matter Allah subhana T is

[34:42]saying that the way they walk even is humbly and thereupon there

[34:45]are many narrations in this regard by the way uh not to

[34:48]get into a lot of details and then trying to go back

[34:52]to the main topic tonight which is the story of but briefly

[34:55]speaking it is said that one of the descriptions of the Prophet

[34:58]sallallahu alaihi Ali wasallam is that when he would sit amongst the

[35:03]people he would sit like he is one of the slaves and

[35:05]therefore believe it or not there was one woman in the Arabian

[35:09]society that accused the prophet One Time by saying you're overly humble

[35:12]is that when you sit we cannot differentiate between you neither you

[35:16]nor your companions or even the slaves that that sit in society

[35:19]and alh wasallam said that that's an honor for me in reality

[35:24]Allah says what that they walk humbly on Earth so that's the

[35:27]first char istic that Allah subhana wa tala describes them with and

[35:33]that walk of humbleness it is even narrated that during the reign

[35:36]of Imam in kufa when he would walk with Kar people would

[35:39]not be able to differentiate between who is the Khalifa and who

[35:44]is the MAA because was the M of so that's the first

[35:49]thing is that they carry humbleness even in their physical appearance and

[35:53]that's absolutely important to understand and then the Quran continues by saying

[35:58]what and when the ignorant speak to them they say peace meaning

[36:06]what meaning that they are servants who rise above immorality who rise

[36:12]above ignorance and thereupon you find that Allah is saying what is

[36:16]that when the ignorant approach them with their ignorant speech they say

[36:22]what they say Salam they do not waste their time into replying

[36:24]back to those ignorants and thereupon you find that there are numerous

[36:28]Nar in this regard about either the prophet and even our 12

[36:31]imams that many incidents occurred during their life where people would slander

[36:36]them they would accuse them of something and then they would just

[36:41]say peace it is narrated that one time IM was walking in

[36:45]in Medina and then a man from sham approached him he's from

[36:48]sham and as soon as he looked at Imam he said he

[36:54]asked him said are you the cow Imam replied back to him

[36:59]by saying what that they call me Al meaning the one that

[37:02]plows the knowledge from the earth from the deepest of the earth

[37:07]and then he said and then the man continued and then he

[37:10]accused of his mother basically he insulted the mother of IM bakam

[37:15]he said are you the one who sits at home and SWS

[37:16]and then imak Alam he said well that's her job that she's

[37:21]a mother and that's what she would do and then he said

[37:23]are you the one whom his mother has a foul mouth IM

[37:28]am replied back to the man saying what he said if you

[37:31]were right then may Allah forgive her and if you were wrong

[37:35]may Allah forgive you right so basically that one of the description

[37:38]of the Servants of the all beneficent they rise above ignorance why

[37:42]because sometimes in society when you carry yourself in humbleness and you

[37:46]have a pure reputation you're always going to have enemies in fact

[37:49]IM says in a narration that look at a man if he

[37:54]does not have enemies in society then there's something wrong with him

[37:57]in reality is that the more straight you are the more humble

[38:01]you are you will find enemies in society and therefore you will

[38:05]those enemies their job or their main concern is to just insult

[38:09]you and bring you down as uh from your status there's a

[38:13]narration in this regard really interesting one in this regard it is

[38:17]narrated that one time there's a man during the life of IM

[38:19]he said to his companions he was sitting around his companions and

[38:25]he said watch how how I am going to insult IM am

[38:27]and then he went to the door of Imad he went to

[38:31]his house he knocked on the door Imad answered the door and

[38:34]then as soon as he opened the door he looked at him

[38:36]and he said bring me back the money that you borrowed from

[38:41]me he accused Imam sad of borrowing money from the man that

[38:43]I gave you a loan I gave you money that bring me

[38:47]back that amount and then he said 60,000 din in some some

[38:49]narrations regardless of the amount Imam did not speak a word he

[38:55]just looked at one of his servants and he said bring me

[38:56]a bag of money and then he gave it to the man

[38:59]the man got shocked because in reality he did not loan Imam

[39:05]sadak money but he just wanted Imam sad to go into an

[39:07]argument with him and that by itself is considered an insult he

[39:12]just wanted to degrade the status of Imam sad Alam amongst the

[39:15]people in society when Imam gave him the bag of money the

[39:19]man walked back and then as soon as he looked at the

[39:21]money at that point he felt guilty so he went back to

[39:26]the house of Imad Alam knocked on the door with head bowed

[39:28]down and he looked at Imam and said you know what I

[39:32]just wanted to insult you honestly but in reality you killed me

[39:35]with your kindness so therefore there you go there's your money back

[39:40]Imad replied back to him he said keep the money for you

[39:42]us the we theit do not take back anything that we gave

[39:47]in the path of Allah subhanahu wa taala reality showing displaying that

[39:52]sense of generosity and therefore Allah subh says so when the ignorant

[39:57]speak to them they say what they say peace they say Salam

[39:59]they do not waste their time in replying to ignorance and then

[40:06]the Quran continues by saying what by saying those who spend the

[40:14]night for their lord prostrating and standing In Worship notice that Allah

[40:19]subhana wa tala the third characteristic he gave to the deves of

[40:22]the all beneficent is what is their I why didn't he highlight

[40:26]their I in the beginning why isn't it that the first thing

[40:28]because in our minds sometimes we think that the first thing to

[40:31]describe Aid or a worshipper is what is through their is that

[40:36]look how humble they are in their I look how they perform

[40:39]their I look how they're Keen they Keen they're so Keen in

[40:44]terms of performing their I Allah here is telling me that first

[40:47]he mentioned humbleness and then he mentioned how they rise above they

[40:50]use their intellect because the more you use your intellect you will

[40:52]rise above ignorance you won't waste your time replying to ignorance isn't

[40:58]it you that Allah subhana mentioned those two characteristics before I even

[41:02]though that you would think in your mind that he should have

[41:06]mentioned I first why because I without intellect in reality is easy

[41:11]to deceive and it could be very dangerous remember when we spoke

[41:16]about the right we said that in their they were absolutely devoted

[41:21]they were considered from the status of reciters in society they memorized

[41:26]the Quran they recited the Quran perfect yet Allah subhana tala sorry

[41:31]Yet history tells us that they were so easily deceive by muaah

[41:34]simply because of the fact that they did not use their intellect

[41:36]so I has to come with intellect and the more you have

[41:39]intellect the more you will be able to perfect your I and

[41:43]no one will be able to deceive you in this regard hence

[41:45]Allah says Those Who spend the night for the Lord prostrating and

[41:53]standing In Worship not necessarily every single hour of the night but

[41:56]in reality that that when they prostrate to Allah when they perform

[42:00]their I they totally devote themselves to Allah they detach themselves from

[42:04]this world that that heart that they have deep inside them they

[42:10]lock it when it comes to I and focus on and I

[42:13]think we spoke about that in the theory of the dog that

[42:15]barks in the soul isn't it and then Allah subhana T continues

[42:20]by saying what those who say our Lord turn away from us

[42:31]the punishment of Hell its punishment is indeed enduring and then Allah

[42:35]highlighted the way they supplicate in Dua their Dua is always related

[42:39]to and it is never related to the glitter of this dun

[42:44]none of the desires of the dun that all what they're concerned

[42:47]about is the Hereafter in this regard notice that as a Muslim

[42:52]you are supposed to believe that you are made for the Hereafter

[42:55]and this Dy is only a Transit that you shall shall live

[42:58]in for a certain period of time but the eternal life is

[43:03]indeed in the Hereafter if you do not believe that this religion

[43:05]is the religion of the Hereafter then you then indeed you are

[43:08]deceived you're not understanding exactly the whole notion of religiosity so therefore

[43:13]they in their Dua what do they say they always pray about

[43:17]the Hereafter and then the other characteristics it says and those who

[43:34]do not invoke another diety beside God meaning they do not associate

[43:38]a partner with God and this verse refers to both types of

[43:43]and meaning that there's the apparent sh that people associate with worship

[43:49]another God besides Allah subana and there's that hidden sh is that

[43:55]when I do associate something so dear to to my heart that

[43:58]sometimes may Allah forbid I value that thing more than Allah subhanahu

[44:03]waala himself and then and those who do not invoke another diet

[44:09]beside God before this he mentions a very important characteristics that I

[44:13]skipped sorry and I would like to go back to and highlight

[44:17]it because it's extremely important Allah even describes the way they spend

[44:21]why you see it's so important so Keen how the Quran goes

[44:23]into details look he says here verse number 67 and those that

[44:37]when they um sorry those on spending meaning Allah is highlighting the

[44:41]concept of the when Allah provides them with the r how do

[44:43]they deal with it when spending are neither wasteful nor tightfisted see

[44:49]Subhan Allah see the idea of it comes from Allah doesn't it

[44:55]so when Allah provides you with a he expects you to maintain

[44:57]a balance on how to deal with this n has a beautiful

[45:01]Hadith in this regard he says there are two types of there's

[45:10]a that you chase and there's a r that chases you as

[45:16]for the one that you chase you will continue chasing Imam Ali

[45:19]continues says As for the one you chase you will continue chasing

[45:23]and you will never get but ask for the that chases you

[45:29]you will continue running away from it but it will always get

[45:33]you so understanding to be content with your Allah is the one

[45:35]that provides the here Allah is describing saying they're neither wasteful nor

[45:40]tightfisted Subhan Allah I want you to focus on Surah Al is

[45:45]there's a beautiful verse in this Regard in Surah Al is verse

[45:49]number 27 Allah subhana wa tal says the wasteful are indeed brothers

[46:01]of the shatan and Satan and Satan is indeed neglectful to towards

[46:11]his Lord you see Subhan Allah there are many vices mentioned in

[46:15]the Holy Quran there are many vices mentioned in the Holy Quran

[46:18]yet not one Vice does Allah subhanahu wa taala related to thean

[46:23]except of what being wasteful there are more dangerous vices in the

[46:29]Holy Quran there's more bad actions mentioned in the Holy Quran such

[46:32]as killing such as z may Allah forbid yet Allah does not

[46:36]say about any of them that they are the brothers of the

[46:38]Shan but then he comes to the ones that spend wastefully they

[46:43]are wasteful in their spending right and then he says what that

[46:48]they are brothers of the Shan relates them directly to the Shan

[46:53]isn't this so dangerous see because the reality is sometimes as human

[46:57]beings we tend not to understand how to maintain a a balance

[47:00]in terms of our spending I'll give you an example see sadya

[47:05]Khan a psychotherapist says something really interesting in this regard she says

[47:11]that if you want your children to hate you buy them everything

[47:13]they want and give them everything they want see why see because

[47:19]in a child's psyche every time they request something and you just

[47:22]provide it to them as soon as you get to a point

[47:25]in your life that you're not able to provide them with it

[47:26]then they start hating you they Rebel and that's why it is

[47:32]important so they can understand the struggles of life is that many

[47:35]of us sometimes we tend to protect our children from the struggles

[47:37]of life we don't explain to them that no this R comes

[47:42]with hard work of and of course it has to pays off

[47:46]with hard work so therefore you need to be responsible teaching responsibility

[47:49]to the children in this regard I'll give you an example Focus

[47:53]onala you would notice that when Ali Akbar went on his first

[47:55]strike and then he came back back to IM Hussein Alam the

[47:59]says what says that when he stood in front of his father

[48:01]and he asked him for a sip of water just a sip

[48:04]of water you know and I always make this and I always

[48:09]focus on this by the way a sip of water is what

[48:10]is basically just a drop you know sometimes when we leave a

[48:14]sep of water in that cup and then it goes to waste

[48:15]how many seps of water do we find in our community centers

[48:19]by the way how many seps of water do we have in

[48:21]our cars and half empty bottle right and some how many times

[48:28]how many sips of water do we find even scattered around in

[48:30]our houses in our basements and our bedrooms but then we stand

[48:35]and we we cry over albar isn't it we just sit in

[48:40]the MJ of albar and we cry over albar because he asked

[48:42]for what a sip of water even though in reality we're so

[48:46]wasteful when it comes to this this is a from Allah subhanahu

[48:49]wa ta'ala this is indeed a from Allah subhah wa tala right

[48:54]so therefore you find that IM Hussein Alam what does he tell

[48:57]ALB on the land of on the land ofala while is just

[49:00]approaching his martyrdom right he's saluting he's saying his he's saying his

[49:04]last farewells to Imam Hussein Alam he tells him oh my son

[49:10]put your tongue over mine meaning what no feel my struggle that

[49:13]I want you to feel my struggle how many of us sometimes

[49:17]are willing to let our own children feel the struggle IM says

[49:21]in the narration meaning roughen up your children cuz sometimes does not

[49:28]last it is important that they understand the struggles of life and

[49:31]what does it mean the sense of responsibility and here Allah subh

[49:36]but at the same they're neither wasteful nor tight fisted they're not

[49:40]stingy right because stinginess is such a bad habit that wasallam says

[49:46]a mmin is neither stingy nor a coward is that it is

[49:50]important that a mman understands that there are two traits that you

[49:54]need to have generosity and bravery right IM am in a narration

[49:57]says what I wonder about a stingi about a miser he rushes

[50:09]towards the poverty which he escaped right because a stingy person implements

[50:17]poverty in his life while he has risk Allah subh T gave

[50:26]and he misses out on that wealth on that n on that

[50:31]Bliss that he spent the majority of his life hunting that is

[50:35]a person always chasing RIS so he lives this life the life

[50:43]of a poor the life of poverty but on the day of

[50:49]his on the day of he is accountable as a rich he

[50:53]will be questioned by Allah subhana as being rich but he missed

[50:56]out on it so here Allah subh compliments them with this habit

[50:59]and the last one is and I want you to remember this

[51:06]keep this in your mind because this what would be one of

[51:10]the questions that ask Al throughout their journey and then he says

[51:14]and do not kill a soul whose life God has made sacred

[51:19]except with due cause meaning that except for deserving punishment and do

[51:24]not commit fornication whoever does that shall be encountered uh shall encounter

[51:30]its own retribution and thereupon I wanted to define the whole notion

[51:35]of ab so understand now the status that Al there's many characteristics

[51:40]inah Alan that follow but I just wanted to choose these simply

[51:43]because of the time restriction that we have and it is worthy

[51:46]for you to reflect back on those characteristics of so going back

[51:52]to what we said this was the status of Al that he

[51:54]was considered one of the of that was distinguished with a knowledge

[52:00]from Allah subhanahu wa tala and therefore I would like to further

[52:03]dissect the topic tonight we reached to a point where Al met

[52:05]mus Alam and they began their Journey Al accepted na mus as

[52:13]a student and musam accepted being led by Al and I would

[52:16]like to do so depending on the following points the first one

[52:20]who is Al is that we hear the name of in theat

[52:24]and the narrations mentioned due toah who is Al and what was

[52:31]his name or what is his name in reality is his name

[52:35]Al or no and then the second Point were the actions of

[52:38]correspondent to the of Allah to the laws of Allah in general

[52:46]much less the sh of musam as na mus is a messenger

[52:48]from Allah and he came with a right so therefore the actions

[52:56]of Al that they coinci with the of and therefore musam questions

[53:02]his actions and three I would like to reflect on the questions

[53:06]of Na mus Alam and the way they were asked from na

[53:11]mus towards Al and before I proceed I would like you to

[53:13]provide me with a loud salawat when we focus on the story

[53:25]of Al we would notice that Al was mentioned only once in

[53:28]the Holy Quran as we mentioned previously is that you find that

[53:31]in all the chapters of the Holy chapters of the Holy Quran

[53:35]Al was not mentioned only in Surah Al where mus Alam met

[53:39]with him secondly we would notice that if we reflect on the

[53:46]verses of the Holy Quran inah mainly in relation to the story

[53:49]of and Al we notice that that man was given such a

[53:52]high status and moreover authority meaning that he wasn't only provided with

[53:57]a mercy he wasn't only provided with a knowledge yet he was

[54:02]given the task to act upon this knowledge and a formative Authority

[54:05]is what we refer to in as right is that not only

[54:13]the legislative Authority but no even the formative Authority a universal sense

[54:18]of authority that he was commanded or he was given the permission

[54:21]to act upon the hidden that we do not see act upon

[54:26]the Boton right we said the there's an apparent there's a and

[54:29]there's a bon there's a hidden right so Al was given that

[54:33]status so many of the commentators of the Holy Quran want to

[54:38]to dispute is that is he a prophet of Allah was he

[54:42]a messenger of Allah or no he is just a servant of

[54:44]Allah subhana tala who devoted himself to Allah that he was given

[54:47]such an authority some suggest that Alam was the likeness of a

[54:52]successor of a messenger such as as the successor of or even

[55:01]the same status as and in reality he had the authority to

[55:05]act upon that knowledge so he did have a sense of authority

[55:10]over the people that he lived amongst as what he will show

[55:13]he will reflect that to musam because when we focus on the

[55:18]actions of Al we would notice that every time he committed an

[55:20]act there was basically no objection the Quran doesn't tell us that

[55:22]there was an objection from the people even though that those actions

[55:27]might might be shocking because they were shocking to musam the name

[55:32]Al is basically his title and his title was given meaning the

[55:36]green one why because it is narrated some narration suggest that every

[55:41]time Al sat somewhere that place would turn green so if the

[55:47]grass was not green it would turn green every time he would

[55:49]touch a plant or he would touch a dead tree it would

[55:54]turn green right so therefore he was given a title Al according

[56:00]to in his book He suggests that the name of Al is

[56:07]basically tal from the children of Sam the son of and therefore

[56:18]that that was his name was his title we notice that even

[56:25]Alam is mentioned in many narrations be it from the the prophet

[56:28]Sall Al wasallam or even from our imams in one of the

[56:35]narration for example IM narrates he says that one time I was

[56:38]walking with the prophet sallallahu alaih wasallam and then a man approached

[56:43]us he was tall and he had a thick beard and he

[56:48]had broad shoulders and he had the signs of IM on him

[56:52]when he approached the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam he saluted the prophet

[57:00]saying then he looked at me and he said oh peace be

[57:03]upon you the fourth khif and then I looked at the prophet

[57:06]sallallahu alaih wasallam and I said is that man right in what

[57:11]he said he said yes indeed y Ali said the first Khalifa

[57:13]was naamam and the second one was na Dam and the third

[57:20]was harun the successor of musam and Ali you are to me

[57:25]like harun was to M and therefore you are the fourth Khalifa

[57:29]further on during the life the reign of the of the of

[57:34]in kufa it has been narrated that one time a narration from

[57:37]KB zad as we all recite Dua K on Thursday night he

[57:42]says that one time we were sitting in the Masjid around on

[57:45]the 15th of Shan we were sitting around him and then he

[57:51]was talking to us about the benefits of that night as that

[57:53]how valuable is that night and therefore you find that our Scholars

[57:55]suggest that the night of 15th of Shan is not less in

[58:00]value than the night of isn't it you find and then IM

[58:05]was telling us the what to do on that night and then

[58:10]he continued by saying and the best of the to recite on

[58:14]that night is Du and then when everyone left I went back

[58:17]to IM and then I told him sorry I told him Imam

[58:22]that what is that Dua of Al so he sat me down

[58:27]and he taught me the Dua Al which later on became to

[58:32]be known as Dua so Dua that we recite in fact every

[58:34]Thursday night is the Dua of Al and going on many narrations

[58:41]in fact imass has a narration about Al he says that one

[58:44]time Al entered or a man entered MJ Alf and I was

[58:49]sitting right next to my father alali and then he asked my

[58:52]father questions and then he told my father that your reply to

[58:57]those questions will determine to me if you are the IM that

[59:00]I'm supposed to follow or not and then when he asked the

[59:02]questions my father aliali looked at me and he said Hassan answer

[59:08]him back and I answered back the questions and he Beed witness

[59:11]um to the imama of my father myself my brother all the

[59:16]way up to IM Muhammad and thereupon it says what said that

[59:29]that's that that's basically the our Scholars they determine Al as this

[59:32]Persona of course as we mentioned before many suggest that Al is

[59:38]still alive and shall have a very important role in the times

[59:41]of the reappearance of our awaited IM which moves me on to

[59:48]the second point you see the second point in this regard as

[59:51]we said is that let's focus on the actions of Al do

[59:55]they coincide which and therefore it will help us understand more the

[60:01]questions of Na mus in this regard we said that the condition

[60:06]that Al put was what is that remember what we said last

[60:09]night we said that Alam the first thing he said is that

[60:15]you cannot have patience with me is that you won't be able

[60:19]to be patient over what I would be able to teach you

[60:22]and then replied back by saying he said you will find me

[60:28]to be patient God willing and I will not disobey you in

[60:32]any matter and then said he said if you sh if you

[60:40]will follow me do not question me concerning anything that was the

[60:45]condition of mus Alam here the commentators of the Holy Quran raise

[60:48]a very interesting point let's say if we were to ask ourselves

[60:53]a question let's say mus Alam did not agree to that condition

[60:57]would that mean that Al will not accept musam as a student

[61:01]and the answer is no why because both of them are commanded

[61:07]from Allah so na mus was commanded from Allah to go seek

[61:09]that mu that teacher who is Al on the same level Al

[61:15]was commanded to accept musam as his students so in reality both

[61:19]are commanded from Allah hence they shall not disobey Allah subhana wa

[61:23]tala and therefore it says what and that God willing I will

[61:29]be patient with you musam did not confirm totally that I will

[61:33]not ask meaning he didn't say that you know what no sure

[61:35]like you said I will not ask but I will not disobey

[61:39]you meaning you lead and I will be the follower right so

[61:46]focus on that sense of Disobedience as we said earlier not disobey

[61:49]you in any matter do not question me concerning anything until I

[61:57]myself first mention it for you then here the Journey of began

[62:02]the first stage in that Journey as the Quran reflects beautifully it

[62:09]says so the first thing is that so they went on here

[62:13]it is almost as if the Quran According to some Scholars when

[62:16]they come to this verse when they say so they went on

[62:21]in meaning it is almost a proceed on a journey but with

[62:27]speed it's as if they have stepped into a different dimension and

[62:29]it's as if that the dimension that they went to is detached

[62:33]is not is not from this Earth they went to a different

[62:38]dimension where the events that shall occur are considered a journey a

[62:42]very long journey but not on this Earth or else it would

[62:47]have taken a lot of time indeed it's almost like a lifetime

[62:50]journey and since Allah subh says so they both went on as

[62:57]we mentioned in the previous nights so so that means here there's

[63:00]a question mark to be raised is that we it is mentioned

[63:02]in the beginning of the story that na musam went with who

[63:07]went with his successor yon isn't it and all the time y

[63:10]was with him yet here it is almost as if the Quran

[63:15]is telling us that one either y did not accompany musam on

[63:22]that Journey with or to the second possibility which is that with

[63:29]musam but he had no role in this on this journey right

[63:32]therefore the Quran does not mention youon anymore so then he says

[63:38]so they went on when they boarded the boat he made a

[63:44]hole in it so the first stage in their journey is that

[63:49]they boarded a boat or a ship nevertheless the first thing that

[63:54]Al did was that he made a hole in it the word

[63:59]used in the Quran in this regard is is literally causing a

[64:06]damage on purpose meaning that he created a hole in the boat

[64:10]which means he intended to cause a damage on this boat so

[64:16]that's the first thing that He did apparently apparently to mus this

[64:21]is an action that is considered that you're violating someone else's property

[64:27]and this is actually um by law you will be punished for

[64:32]it isn't it fine so basically the first thing that he did

[64:35]is that he made a hole in a boat here mus raised

[64:40]a question he said what he said did you make a hole

[64:51]in it to drown its people right why because if you're creating

[64:54]a hole in a boat so that means the boat is going

[64:57]to sink the water is going to enter the boat and in

[64:58]return the people are going to drown you see the Quran is

[65:04]not telling us whether there were people on that ship or not

[65:07]but what's Apparent from the verses is that apparently when mus Alam

[65:12]got into that boat with to cross somewhere to take a journey

[65:16]take the journey that there were people on it so therefore he

[65:18]said he said did you make a hole in it to drown

[65:22]its people you have certainly done a monstrous thing thing you violated

[65:27]the laws and thereupon we said that the first action of Al

[65:32]did not coincide with the ofam here it is worthy to reflect

[65:38]on one important point you see Al as we mentioned previously was

[65:41]given a knowledge from Allah and he was acting upon that knowledge

[65:46]musam was given a knowledge from Allah the message this to stick

[65:50]to the laws and thereupon he was acting on that knowledge so

[65:55]both of them were doing their well it's not that na mus

[65:58]was objecting if he was objecting that that's a different story but

[66:01]he was questioning and notice in the way that question which leads

[66:06]us to the third point and inshallah we'll just go in parallels

[66:08]with the second and the third point tonight which leads us to

[66:10]the third point is that the questions of Na Musa in this

[66:14]regard are questions that are considered leading questions he didn't say why

[66:18]did you put a hole in it right or why did you

[66:24]no he suggested he suggested the reason as to why Al made

[66:27]a hole in the boat he said what he said did you

[66:32]sorry he said did you make a hole in it to drown

[66:36]its people meaning or meaning that I'm waiting for an answer meaning

[66:39]please try to comfort my heart and tell me that there's a

[66:44]different reason as to why you created a hole in it isn't

[66:45]that interesting you fine and that's considered the ethics of a student

[66:49]towards a teacher and by the way the commentators of the Holy

[66:54]Quran derive from this the the notion of the ethics from a

[66:57]stu of a student towards his teacher and the vice versa and

[67:01]the ethics of the teacher towards his own students so that's why

[67:04]he said what he said did you make a hole in it

[67:07]to drown its people but then here he said well if that's

[67:12]the case if you did that to drown its people then you

[67:17]have certainly done a monstrous thing then basic why because it's an

[67:21]action that is considered Haram so musam was acting upon his legislation

[67:26]and understanding that you know what legally speaking you just something wrong

[67:31]something monstrous something absolutely wrong and then here the reply came from

[67:40]reminded Alam of what he said did I not say that you

[67:45]cannot have patience with me because the first thing that mus Alam

[67:48]when he asked him to be a students a student he said

[67:52]I don't think he'll have patience with me it's very hard those

[67:54]matters see here knows that is a messenger of Allah and he

[68:03]acts upon his message which is what to command to which is

[68:11]good and forbid from which is evil apparently this is the of

[68:16]musam that's his authority why because he's a messenger of Allah he

[68:20]should he should from forbid from which is evil so what look

[68:23]to musam this this might be EV uh be an act of

[68:29]evil and therefore he asked Al he suggested that did you create

[68:33]a hole in it so you can drown its people or no

[68:35]meaning tell me something different you understand that and that's really interesting

[68:39]when we focus on the dialogue between Al and so he said

[68:46]you cannot have did I did I not say that you cannot

[68:50]have patience with me so that's the first reminder from Al and

[68:54]then the Quran continued so it's almost that that trip or that

[68:59]Journey they took in the boat ended right there and then they

[69:02]left and then they entered into another stage of that Journey the

[69:08]second one was what and then sorry mus before that he said

[69:17]do do not take me to task for my forgetting and do

[69:23]not be hard upon me Arabic is literally do not exhaust me

[69:28]do not even give me a a a a a greater burden

[69:32]than the one I'm bearing at this moment because I'm getting exposed

[69:38]to a type of knowledge that is reflected through actions that on

[69:42]my D in my world as a messenger of Allah I should

[69:48]stop people from doing such actions if not even punish them do

[69:51]you understand that so that's why he said do not exhaust me

[69:52]more Subhan Allah The Hidden honestly creates a fatigue in a human

[69:58]being the more you know the more exhausted you will be in

[70:04]dealing in society and we gave that example during the times of

[70:06]the reappearance of our awaited IM is that many of us will

[70:11]not be able to handle the actions of our Imam maybe we

[70:13]might object even to our own infallible Imam and thus he says

[70:19]do not take me for uh do not take me to task

[70:20]for my forgetting and do not be hard upon me and then

[70:27]the Quran continues saying another one so they went on here creating

[70:36]a hole in this on the boat would look a lot easier

[70:45]than what would commit at this point meaning on the first one

[70:48]he created a hole on the second one the Quran says what

[70:53]so they went on until They Came Upon a boy where upon

[70:55]he he slew him he killed him could you imagine that is

[71:01]that here mus so what the hole in the boat will look

[71:06]a lot easier and a lot less than what than killing a

[71:11]boy gulam in the Arabic language refers to a boy many of

[71:13]the times it refers to a boy who had not reached puberty

[71:17]yet yet in these verses many of the commentators of the Holy

[71:19]Quran they come and say well this in reference if we look

[71:23]into the sequence of the verses in the story we would notice

[71:26]said that that boy was almost like an adult almost like a

[71:29]teenager and then as soon as mus Alam could you imagine that

[71:34]walking mus just imagine this and then he meets a boy and

[71:37]right away he kills him no question asked right away he kills

[71:43]him he doesn't even ask him he doesn't even for example accuse

[71:46]him of a crime but he just kills him on the spot

[71:51]and then he says whereupon he slew him here looked at wondering

[72:00]says he said did you slay an innocent Soul without his having

[72:07]slain anyone again acting upon What legislation because the Shar States what

[72:12]is that if you were to kill this person then it should

[72:17]be as a result of punishing him for killing another Soul right

[72:21]the Shar of the Jews at that point was that if I

[72:25]was to kill a person and if I bring him to Justice

[72:29]unless they send him to Capital Punishment then he must have committed

[72:32]a crime but here musam wonders in this regard he says he

[72:39]said did you slay an innocent Soul without him having slain anyone

[72:46]you have certainly done a dire thing meaning the first one he

[72:50]said what a monstrous thing isn't it mean such an evil act

[72:53]right about baric act an act of Barb barbarism meaning you create

[72:59]a hole in a boat and might drown its people and the

[73:01]second one said you brought a dire thing something so heavy right

[73:06]away you kill a soul and as I said it's because in

[73:11]the psyche of musam the message that has been provided from Allah

[73:15]subhana tala says that you shall not kill a soul thou shal

[73:17]not kill isn't it right and right away he just wonders at

[73:24]this point here Al says what to mus again [Music] he said

[73:31]did I not tell you that you cannot have patience with me

[73:37]the difference between this one and verse number 72 is what in

[73:42]verse number 72 focus on the Holy Quran he says he doesn't

[73:48]say he said did I not say in verse 72 the first

[73:54]time when he created the whole Al are you following me when

[73:58]Al creates this hole in the boat mus sorry and when mus

[74:05]asked him Al did not reply by saying did I not say

[74:09]to you he just said did I not say that you cannot

[74:11]have patience with me again the ethics of a teacher and a

[74:16]student not make it too personal see sometimes and this is a

[74:19]lesson for us is when we're given a piece of advice is

[74:22]that someone might do something wrong in front of us it is

[74:24]sometimes worthy for us to speak in the general form to try

[74:28]to teach them a lesson and not right away um just directed

[74:31]towards them because they might feel attacked and rebel but in the

[74:34]second one said what said he said did I not tell you

[74:46]so not in general now I'm I'm addressing you Musa did I

[74:50]not tell you that you cannot have patience with me as a

[74:54]reminder a stronger reminder here mus what does he say he does

[75:02]not reply back by saying he said do not take me for

[75:07]a t do not take me to task for my forgetting no

[75:09]no no here musam noticed that it is such a heavy burden

[75:17]and thereupon he volunteered to tell Alam what he said if I

[75:26]question you about anything after this do not keep me in your

[75:30]company volunteered to separate from Al he did not tell him no

[75:36]forgive me for my forgetting no no no no no right away

[75:41]he tells him that no here since I did it again then

[75:43]if I were to ask you about anything else then do not

[75:48]accompany me do not keep me in your company separate from me

[75:53]right you already have enough excuse on my part and ethically speaking

[76:01]this is also to teach us a lesson like how many times

[76:03]sometimes can you give excuses isn't it see when the sheh is

[76:08]late to the lecture like how many excuses can you give okay

[76:09]one time is the GPS one time miss the car one time

[76:14]how many times how many excuses can you give right forgive the

[76:17]sheh for God's sake I'm just kidding anyways is that you already

[76:25]have enough excuse on my part but the second one and then

[76:27]the Quran continues so the first two stages the boat the second

[76:33]so the second stage was uh slaying that boy and then here

[76:36]the third stage so they went on until they came to the

[76:45]people of a town they asked its people for food some commentators

[76:50]of the Holy Quran suggest that this is this was e either

[76:53]the town of Antioch the city of Antioch that is mentioned inah

[76:57]but according to in his book he says when we look at

[77:04]the geographical map where musam met with Al then it could be

[77:08]more the city of Nazareth in Palestine so so they went on

[77:13]they came on to a people of a town they asked its

[77:15]people for food they were hungry and this shows you that that

[77:20]Journey took a while so they became hungry so they asked their

[77:25]people for food they asked them for food and but they refused

[77:32]to extend them any Hospitality could you imagine that entering a town

[77:37]you're hungry they're asking people for food and then in return nobody

[77:43]offered them food nobody wanted to host them and therefore the Quran

[77:47]says but they refused Subhan Allah it's almost like as if the

[77:50]Quran is insisting on that notion of stinginess as we mentioned in

[77:54]our introduction there's a reason why I mentioned the why why I

[77:57]began with this very long introduction tonight because it will put a

[77:59]base for us to understand what is of so what did they

[78:05]say they were stingy that they refused to extend them any hospitality

[78:09]and here the action came also wonderful or really wonder made even

[78:15]wonder further says there they found a wall which was about to

[78:24]collapse there was a wall in that City that belonged to a

[78:29]fence maybe to um a certain family that uh they found a

[78:32]wall which was about to collapse so he erected it so he

[78:37]just fixed it here Subhan Allah you see before that Allah subh

[78:44]was including musam With Every Act or with Alam yet the action

[78:49]was only committed by who Al mus had no part in those

[78:54]actions isn't it so here the same thing is that one Alam

[78:58]he saw that wall so he fixed it he reconstructed the wall

[79:03]here musam wondered is that previously the people of the boat did

[79:07]not do anything wrong to you you created a hole in their

[79:12]boat that boy we I don't we don't even know who he

[79:14]is yeah right away you killed the boy but now we reached

[79:19]out for help to those people to feed us and they refused

[79:21]to give us even food but then what do you do in

[79:26]in return you do something good to them in return and by

[79:30]the way on a side note understand sometimes that not every time

[79:33]you extend the act of kindness with someone that does you wrong

[79:36]some people need to learn a lesson in life and if you

[79:40]really love them you would actually teach them a proper lesson in

[79:44]life based on morality how many of us sometimes fall into that

[79:48]mistake of what is referred to in the science of psychology as

[79:55]misplacement of emotions right you you become overly kind and that's why

[79:59]the religion of Islam doesn't want you to be nice wants you

[80:02]to be kind right do not overdue an act of kindness until

[80:07]you become so nice to the point that you're taking advantage of

[80:09]Allah does not like it if you are taken advantage of there's

[80:13]even aith by IM in this regard it's a long story I

[80:17]don't want to get into it but beautiful Hadith where he says

[80:19]Allah subhana does not like the person that is taken advantage of

[80:23]and he does not like a person who takes advantage of people

[80:26]do not allow anybody to take advantage of you understand that you

[80:29]need to have a strong personality acts of kindness are different from

[80:32]absolutely being too nice let me give you an example you see

[80:36]if I love to drink tea and you invite me to your

[80:41]house and you bring that teapot and you bring me the pot

[80:44]the glass right in front of me and you pour me the

[80:47]tea right Hassan when he invited me to his house he asked

[80:51]me how do you like your coffee when I explain to me

[80:52]he's like you know what I'll just bring you everything and you

[80:55]do it yourself yeah he's unapproachable when he's smoking is shisha Subhan

[80:59]Allah just leave him alone I don't blame him anyways on the

[81:02]other hand you find that imagine you bring me that glass of

[81:07]tea when you bring me that glass of tea I tell you

[81:10]you ask me the question the famous question is that how many

[81:12]spoons of sugar would you like in it isn't it if I

[81:16]tell you two but out of your kindness he say no no

[81:20]no I want your tea to be overly sweet why because I'm

[81:22]generous and he put me three when I drink the teacup I'm

[81:26]not going to be pleased in fact I'm going to be angry

[81:28]the fact this is not how I drink my tea see that's

[81:32]sometimes what you end up doing to others some people just so

[81:36]you cannot just give them more than they deserve because in reality

[81:40]they were Rebel they'll be like that's not what I asked for

[81:43]so be very smart in how do you place your emotions or

[81:48]else you will be so drained emotionally when someone else deserving comes

[81:52]on your path you would treat them wrong that's why even I

[81:56]would quote sad Khan again the psychotherapist says something really interesting in

[82:00]this regard says some people are used to the language of abuse

[82:02]so much that as soon as you love them you give them

[82:05]that language of love they Rebel they say this is not what

[82:11]I'm used to they push it away isn't it right and therefore

[82:13]what you do is that you find here Allah subh is giving

[82:17]us an example similar say Subhan Allah those people um they did

[82:23]not want to host but in turn Al acted upon his head

[82:26]and and what did he do he reconstructed the wall and then

[82:32]said what here mus did not ask he gave a suggestion says

[82:39]he said had you wished had you wished meaning as a as

[82:44]a in return return you could have surely taken a wage for

[82:47]it you could have gotten paid for it right why so we

[82:51]can use that money and buy food and and just have food

[82:54]in exchange right mus what he said is something logical that why

[82:57]would you do something for free right but then he questioned in

[83:03]a form of suggestion is that if you wished you could have

[83:07]to taken a wage for it right away on the SP the

[83:11]Quran tells me here the reply came from he said this is

[83:18]where you and I shall F why because musam put that condition

[83:22]in not Al focus on This na mus put the condition of

[83:27]it earlier when he said what do not keep me in your

[83:31]company if you ask you about anything else we shall part ways

[83:34]here Alam said you know what this is where you and I

[83:39]shall part but then the ethics of a teacher towards the student

[83:42]he doesn't doesn't just part way with him without giving him an

[83:45]explanation right no he explains to him why and he tells him

[83:56]I will inform you about the interpretation of that over which you

[84:02]could not maintain patience meaning that my actions have to be interpreted

[84:09]not necessarily explained there's an interpretation for them and this is what

[84:15]we we shall find out tomorrow inshallah we end with the following

[84:21]Dua saying for
