[0:14]muhammad respected brothers and sisters in the next few days we will

[0:42]be beginning one of the holiest months in the islamic lunar calendar

[0:48]and that is the month of rajab the month of rajab it

[0:57]is considered to be one of the al-haram one of the sacred

[1:01]months where even before islam before rasulallah it was considered the haram

[1:11]months the and during these months it was haram to fight even

[1:17]the non-muslims they would not fight during this month and rajab is

[1:23]one of those holy months rajab is also the beginning of the

[1:27]spiritual season the season of spirituality the season of connection with allah

[1:32]subhanahu wa ta'ala because we have the month of rajab and then

[1:37]after the month of shaban and then the month of ramadan a

[1:42]lot of people in the month of ramadan begins they say i

[1:46]want to pray i want to feel connected with allah i want

[1:49]to feel connected in my prayer but i don't feel connected one

[1:53]of the reasons is because we did not prepare ourselves we did

[1:59]not prepare our souls and our spirituality we didn't prepare it spirituality

[2:06]rohaniya and feeling connection in a prayer it's not an on and

[2:10]off switch you can't just say oh it's now i'm going to

[2:14]feel the spirituality it doesn't happen like that there's a process that

[2:21]process begins in the month of rajab this is why it's highly

[2:23]recommended to fast during the month of rajab it's highly recommended to

[2:29]recite dua recite quran to perform ziyarah during the month of rajab

[2:34]this is why rasool allah is a river in paradise that is

[3:03]wider than milk and sweeter than honey the one who fasts one

[3:17]day during rajab allah bless this person with the opportunity of drinking

[3:22]from that river in paradise if you get to drink from the

[3:26]river in paradise what does that mean that means that you are

[3:30]in paradise that means you enter into paradise and another hadith allah

[3:41]will multiply the good the reward of the good deeds that you

[3:46]do during the month of rajab and allah will erase the bad

[3:51]deeds the one who fasts one day in rajab the hell fire

[4:03]will be further away from this person as if you would have

[4:07]to travel for one year until you reach the hell fire so

[4:10]it's one year away from this person and whoever fast for three

[4:19]days heaven becomes obligatory upon this person so the likelihood that friday

[4:28]night should probably be tomorrow night should probably be if the sighted

[4:32]it should in the united states it should be probably the eve

[4:36]of the first of rajab so saturday should most likely be the

[4:42]the first of rajab if it was not cited friday night then

[4:44]it would be sunday as the first of rajab but there is

[4:48]a big likelihood that saturday will be the first of rajab so

[4:50]if you want to fast you can start fasting saturday or sunday

[4:55]and um this is an opportunity to get closer to allah subhanahu

[5:01]wa ta'ala one of the companions of imam jaffar assad his name

[5:08]is muhammad ibn the quran this man his title his nickname was

[5:13]asad you know we have imam zainal abdeen his nickname is a

[5:18]sajad what does a sajad mean sajad means the one who is

[5:23]prostrating the one who is doing sujud the companion of imam sadaq

[5:29]was such a person who is filled with spirituality and closeness to

[5:32]allah and he was such a devout worshiper where he was known

[5:36]as a sajad as well imagine that the companions of our imams

[5:39]this is how they were one of them his name is asad

[5:46]so he comes to imam sadaq and he tells him teach will

[5:52]benefit me through this dua who goes and asks for a dua

[5:58]the person who is connected with allah otherwise if someone is not

[6:02]connected with god they're not going to go and look for the

[6:05]duas you're not going to see them in the mail program and

[6:09]the and the supplication program so the imam he teaches them this

[6:14]dua and this is a dua that you will find in in

[6:18]the books of dua try to perform this dua after each prayer

[6:23]as the after you finish the prayer you perform this dua and

[6:29]this dua is you place your hand on your beard and you

[7:16]point in front of you you ask allah to make your shayba

[7:31]haram upon the hell fire so that you will not be thrown

[7:33]in the hell fire this is one of the doors now my

[7:37]dear brothers and sisters since we're talking about rajab rajab has a

[7:40]lot of occasions the birth of nazar the birth of imam al-baqarah

[7:47]the martyrdom of imam al-hadi is in rajab the birth of imam

[7:50]al-hadi is in rajab say the zainab there's an occasion for her

[7:55]imam jaffar there are several occasions so rajab has many occasions now

[8:02]the first day of rajab is the day of the birth of

[8:07]the fifth imam of bayt imam muhammad who is the son of

[8:19]imam al-hussein who is the son of amir al-mu'min imam allah the

[8:21]fifth imam of al-bait because imam al-hasan year 57 after the hijab

[8:39]so that means on the day of ashura which took place in

[8:44]the year 61 after hijra imam muhammad al-baqarah was three and a

[8:49]half years old and he attended on the day of he was

[8:51]there and he saw what happened to imam al-hussein and therefore he

[8:56]is one of the narrators of the event of he narrates to

[9:00]us what happened on the day of ashura and imam muhammad al-baqr

[9:05]was poisoned in the year 114 after hijra and he lived for

[9:12]57 years his imam lasted for around 19 years 18 19 years

[9:18]that was the period of the imam of imam muhammad al-baqarah after

[9:24]the death of imam zayn abdin in the year 95 after hijrah

[9:28]now his father we know who his fathers his father is imam

[9:37]zain al-abidin his mother is fatima fatima the daughter of imam al-hassan

[9:44]and this is why imam al-baqar he's a saiyan from both sides

[9:49]from his father's side he goes to imam hussain imam zayn and

[9:53]then imam hussain and from his mother's side is fatima who is

[9:58]the daughter of imam al-hassan and then he goes to imam hasan

[10:00]so he he is hasan he's from both hassan's imam al-hussein and

[10:05]imam al-hassan his lineage and this is why the imams after imam

[10:09]al-baqarah from imam and bakr and onward they both go to imam

[10:14]al-hasan and imam al-hussein imam al-hassan his title and his name and

[10:28]his imam was prophesied by rasulallah in fact we believe that our

[10:36]imams our imams are not elected officials elected by people our imams

[10:40]are chosen by allah and rasool allah he named all of the

[10:48]imams not only imam ali on the day of ghadir he tells

[10:52]he tells the muslims the first imam and then imam al-hassan and

[10:56]then imam hussain and then muhammad and he gave them their titles

[11:05]today when we say muhammad al-baqr where did we get this title

[11:11]backer from we got it from rasulallah where did we get sadhak

[11:15]from sadhak is a title of the name the name his name

[11:19]is muhammad al-baqr or jaffar where did we get these titles from

[11:23]from rasulullah and even imam al-munta his title is given to him

[11:31]by rasool allah and this is in a hadith regarding imam al-batar

[11:35]in a hadith that is accepted by all muslims sunnis and shias

[11:40]they narrate this hadith and one of the narrators scholars sunni scholars

[11:46]by the name of ibn koteva ibn koteva he mentions that told

[11:53]one of his companions by the name of jabir ibn abdullah ansari

[11:57]you remember abdullah in the event of the arab of imam hussain

[12:03]the first person the first of the companions to visit the grave

[12:06]of imam and hussain was sorry became older but during the time

[12:15]while he was the sahaba of rasulallah rasulullah tells him you are

[12:20]going to live old enough where you are going to see one

[12:25]of my grandchildren his name is my name muhammad yap he's going

[12:33]to spread and and knowledge is going to explode during his era

[12:38]and then he tells him when you see him give him my

[12:47]salams so ibm scholars they mention that jabarbin abdullah ansari became was

[12:59]born in the year 57 after hijra so this was probably after

[13:04]year 57 and most likely it was after the martyrdom of imam

[13:10]al-hussein so in the year 60s or 70s so so this is

[13:13]60 years after the death of rasulallah or 50 years probably jabber

[13:20]used to go around in madina and he used to say yabaka

[13:23]yabata some people thought this man is he's old he's insane he's

[13:31]lost his mind so they tell him what are you saying that

[13:38]i'm going to live old enough i'm going to see one of

[13:42]his grand great grandchildren who his name is muhammad he resembles rasulullah

[13:48]and he is go knowledge is going to spread during his era

[13:55]so the narration says he goes to the house of imam zain

[13:57]al-abidin and he sees a child he sees him he tells him

[14:02]come here he comes and then he tells him he looks at

[14:06]him walk tells him what's your name he says my name is

[14:13]muhammad and then he asks him he finds out that this is

[14:22]he tells him your grandfather rasool allah he sent salam to you

[14:30]imagine not your grandfather but your grandfather's grandfather said salaam to you

[14:35]and someone who's alive comes and delivers that salam to you this

[14:38]is you know this is beautiful because imam imam al-baqar imam zayn

[14:45]abedin his grandfather is imam and hussain and then so his grandfather's

[14:51]grandfather sent salam to him so imam al-batar who was a child

[14:56]he tells [Music] and then he would ask him questions and he

[15:10]saw that he was indeed someone who was very smart very wise

[15:15]from a very young age now imam al-baqara what's very significant during

[15:26]his life is that he started the enlightenment era the intellectual era

[15:31]you know all of the imams they're all brilliant they're all given

[15:35]the knowledge from allah subhanahu ta'ala but because of the circumstances of

[15:40]the time some of the imams did not have the freedom like

[15:42]imam al-hussein did he have the freedom no imam hussain was killed

[15:48]amir al-mu'min was he given the freedom no amir mu'min was kept

[15:52]in his house for 24 years as soon as the power came

[15:56]to him they started war after war after war imam al-hasan was

[15:59]not given the freedom because the authorities they were watching them they

[16:03]were persecuting them during the time of imam al-baqar the umawi authorities

[16:09]they had they were so you know busy and occupied with running

[16:16]the muslim state and expanding the muslim empire that they didn't really

[16:22]focus so much on medina and the internal politics they kind of

[16:26]you know ignored the internal politics because the imams as well they

[16:30]weren't revolting they weren't saying anything so because of course because of

[16:36]a wise decision that they had not because they were afraid or

[16:41]anything so that period was a relative period of enlightenment and it

[16:47]started with imam zainab imam in the beginning after immediately after the

[16:52]death of imam and hussain he didn't have the freedom but towards

[16:55]the end of his life he was able to teach through dua

[17:00]through through here things here and there once imam zel abdin passed

[17:04]away in year 95 after hijrah imam al-batar he was old enough

[17:09]and he would sit in the masjid of rasulallah and he would

[17:13]deliver sermons and he would teach people he used to have classes

[17:19]where he used to teach people and this is even mentioned in

[17:23]a story one day the medina he came to the masjid and

[17:29]he was giving a tour to the khalifa the khalifa at that

[17:35]time was abdul malik abdul malik ibn marwan so al-waleed abdul malik

[17:40]he was the caliph at that time he's ordered for the expansion

[17:45]and the growth and renovation of the masjid of rasulallah he comes

[17:51]to madina all the way from sham from damascus he comes to

[17:56]medina so the governor of madinah omar bin abdul aziz who later

[17:59]on he becomes khalifa he is giving abdul malik a tour of

[18:05]the masjid of the renovation project in the masjid of rasulallah while

[18:09]they enter into the masjid they see that there's a class in

[18:13]session who's the teacher the teachers imam al-baqara and there are hundreds

[18:19]of students attending but abdul malik was surprised because usually if you

[18:26]see there's a class going on in the masjid what kind of

[18:29]topics are you going to be hearing oh this is halal this

[18:35]is haram or quran or islamic history things like that he saw

[18:40]imam al-baqar saying something that is very abnormal he's never heard it

[18:50]before so he asks him what is this what is this knowledge

[18:52]that you're teaching people he says the sky and the heavens about

[19:15]the sun astronomy and the stars now imam al-baqar aren't the imams

[19:20]of the advent they're just imams or they're just knowledgeable in religious

[19:24]issues in quran and hadith no the imams of the bait they

[19:31]have been given the knowledge by allah and they are knowledgeable in

[19:36]everything allah says in the quran when allah chooses someone as an

[19:52]imam allah chooses someone who is complete in all dimensions not only

[19:55]in islamic topics in everything imam al-baqarah is teaching geology and astronomy

[20:02]fourteen hundred years ago in the masjid of rasulallah what does this

[20:07]teach us this teaches us that knowledge getting closer to allah with

[20:12]knowledge could be any type of knowledge it doesn't have to be

[20:14]islamic knowledge that's one second it teaches you that the masjid should

[20:19]be a place where people learn all topics everything this is why

[20:23]there's nothing wrong with for example having tutoring programs in the masjid

[20:27]teaching mathematics teaching other other subjects in the masjid there's nothing wrong

[20:32]with that in fact this is what islam encourages and this is

[20:36]what the role of a masjid is this is what imam al-baqara

[20:41]was doing so anyways this is there's a long story behind this

[20:44]where al-waleed the khalifa he calls he looks at the students and

[20:49]he sees that the topic that's being taught is very difficult he

[20:53]sees a child sitting and the child is debating with the teacher

[20:57]imam and bakker so he asks who's the tour guide he tells

[21:02]him who's that child he says that child is his son jaffar

[21:08]so he says a hawaii effem he understands because i don't understand

[21:13]what's being taught he understands what's being taught the khalif the the

[21:18]um is the tour guide he tells the khalifa he is the

[21:22]only one who understands everything sometimes it's just back and forth between

[21:25]the teacher and imam jafar so he calls imam assad and he

[21:30]asks him several questions we'll cover that another time it's a beautiful

[21:34]hadith as well so this part of it shows the the intellectual

[21:40]genius of imam jafar sadaq as well anyways imam al-baqar he is

[21:46]known as the founder of the islamic university where thousands of students

[21:54]graduated under his leadership sunni scholars they learned from the imams of

[22:00]the albert sunni scholars like imam sadaq the son of imam al-baqar

[22:04]abu hanifah the leader of the hanafi school of thought were millions

[22:08]of muslims they followed the hanafi school of thought he was the

[22:12]student of imam so why do you go why do you leave

[22:18]imam sadiq and go to the students and the others they all

[22:23]learned from the imams of the albeit similarly imam al-baqarah sunnis and

[22:27]shias they would come and they would learn under him one of

[22:30]his students one of the students of imam al-baqar by the name

[22:36]of jabir al-jafi jabar al-jafi narrates over seventy thousand hadith from imam

[22:46]seventy thousand can you believe it when the student has memorized seventy

[22:52]thousand hadith from the teacher how much hadith has the teacher taught

[22:57]how much hadith how much knowledge does the teacher have when only

[23:03]the student has 70 thousand another student today right now our scholars

[23:09]when they go and they want to derive laws they go to

[23:13]these individuals and these individuals he was the teacher of this the

[23:18]students of imam al-baqara and then later on the student of imam

[23:20]sadiq he narrates from imam al-baqarah 40 000 hadith 40 000 hadith

[23:32]these are all individuals scholars that would narrate and they would learn

[23:37]from the imams of the ahledbait today scholars they point out 470

[23:45]narrators of hadith who were the students of imam al-baqar and the

[23:52]imam would teach many languages many sciences quran hadith as we mentioned

[23:58]astronomy geology other subjects tafsir of the quran is one of them

[24:06]ideology but the imam salam he would also he wasn't just someone

[24:10]who was sitting in his house or in the masjid just teaching

[24:13]no the imam was engaged in politics as well at that time

[24:18]the muslims even though the khilafah the muslim caliphate was in the

[24:22]hands of the umaes and it was very big but the muslims

[24:26]they didn't mint their own coins where would they get their gold

[24:32]and silver coins from they would get their coins from the romans

[24:35]from the roman empire so the roman empire at that time they

[24:40]had issues with the khalifa they wanted to make a coin with

[24:47]a with with a sign on it that is bringing down islam

[24:54]and muslims so this would be an insult to the muslims there's

[24:56]an insult on the coin and the muslims they have to use

[25:00]that coin so this what they this put the khalifa in a

[25:05]very difficult situation he needs their coin like right now what's going

[25:09]right now the dollar it's rules the world and all over the

[25:15]world they need the dollar but imagine if a country they need

[25:18]the dollar and the dollar has an insult towards that country that's

[25:21]not going to look good you you use it but then it's

[25:25]insulting you so here the khalifa didn't know what to do imam

[25:28]he taught the khalifa how to mint a coin how to make

[25:33]the coin and from that day on the muslims they started making

[25:39]their own coins and started minting their own their own coins and

[25:43]this was something that was amazing and a major contribution from imam

[25:49]al-baqarah towards islam and the muslim community and even though the imam

[25:54]was not in power but the imam did something that benefits all

[25:57]of the muslims the knowledge of the imam is very great there's

[26:03]an interesting story imam sadak alaihissalam he narrates the story he says

[26:07]one day i was with my father in mecca and my father

[26:12]was doing tawaf around the kaaba and the khalifa at that time

[26:19]hasham ibn abdul malik he was also performing the hajj at that

[26:22]time so he had come from damascus performing the hajj and we

[26:24]the imam and the imam and bakr they went from madina to

[26:29]mecca and imam al-bakr is doing tawaf in the tawaf he says

[26:33]that everyone hears in he says all praises do to allah that

[26:40]he chose us with prophethood and he made from us the imams

[26:44]and he made us us us this there were spies around they

[26:49]heard this they go and they tell the khalifa the khalifah he

[26:52]summons imam al-baqar and imam jaffar all the way to damascus he

[27:00]summons him so imam sadiq he says i went with my father

[27:02]all the way to damascus and they made us wait for three

[27:09]days before we enter in on the khalifa and then once we

[27:12]entered in the khalifa was and he had his generals and he

[27:19]has the governors and all those people around him he's sitting on

[27:23]a big couch and he has soldier he says they brought imam

[27:25]al-baqara and imam they brought them the khalifah does not give them

[27:30]permission to sit he makes them stand he wants to bring them

[27:33]down he wants to insult them so then the khalifa at that

[27:40]time he wants to make imam al-baqarah look bad so he tells

[27:45]him there these soldiers these generals they're taking bows and they're they're

[27:51]doing archery they're throwing uh they're throwing bows they're shooting arrows why

[27:55]don't you go and shoot some arrows so imam bakker tells him

[28:00]i'm an older man i mean why do you want me to

[28:03]come the khalifa wanted to insult the imam to say oh look

[28:05]he doesn't know how he's messing up he tells him i'm an

[28:09]old man he tells him no you have to go and throw

[28:13]you have to go and shoot an arrow so imam assad he

[28:16]says my father he went he took an arrow and he shot

[28:19]it and it came right on the target so the khalifa said

[28:24]you know what this is luck do another one he says he

[28:27]took another one and he shot it and it came right on

[28:30]the target it ripped the first piece of wood and split it

[28:35]in half and then he said a third one and it came

[28:36]right on the target fourth one fifth one nine times nine times

[28:40]all of them they came and they hit right on the target

[28:45]he said you told us you don't know you told he he

[28:49]didn't say he told us you don't know he said you told

[28:53]us you're too old he tells them we have been chosen by

[28:55]allah perfection is everything that we don't know how to do it

[29:03]the imam tells him we inherit these virtues onto one another so

[29:07]imam assad he also shoots and he makes them all perfect then

[29:12]the khalifa he begins to debate with the imam and the imam

[29:16]conversation it's a long hadith imam tells him we have been chosen

[29:21]by allah that's the difference when someone is chosen by this person

[29:27]is purified by god this person perfection and infallibility from allah subhanahu

[29:32]wa here the khalifa wanted to bring down the imam and humiliate

[29:38]the imam but the imam allah subhanahu ta'ala showed his status and

[29:44]he was raised and everyone at that time they started looking at

[29:48]the imam and following the imam until the khalifah he sends him

[29:50]back he tells them go back to medina and don't stay here

[29:54]long because the longer you stay the more the khalifa is going

[29:58]to you know look weak in front of his people so my

[30:01]dear brothers and sisters we congratulate you all on the beginning of

[30:05]the month of rajab which will be inshallah in a few days

[30:11]and also on the birth of imam al-baqar and the holy occasions

[30:17]during the month of rajab alhamdulillah was oh
