[0:01][music] [music] We discussed last night how the Quran, the word of

[0:19]Allah, the logos was compiled and part of how it was revealed.

[0:24]The essence of the faith of Islam is the the revelation that

[0:30]was descended upon the core of Islam is why people at the

[0:43]time of accused him that you're making all this up.

[0:47]You know this is nonsense.

[0:50]There is no such thing as an angel coming down, descending upon

[0:54]you, giving you all this.

[0:56]It's all nonsense.

[0:58]You're making this up.

[0:57]And in fact, you find even there are some contemporary scholars of

[1:03]religion that argue the was descended upon was not even real.

[1:08]It's he had certain dreams and he would try to interpret these

[1:15]dreams and analyze them when he woke up and that's how the

[1:19]Quran came to be.

[1:18]It's not the actual words of Allah.

[1:21]Whereas we believe that all faiths of God starting from Abraham starting

[1:29]in fact from Adam to the Zabur to the Torah to the

[1:31]Bible and finally with the Quran these are all pure and divine

[1:38]revelation from Allahel.

[1:38]So at its core we believe that everything that Allah said and

[1:44]stated is not his own personal interpretation his own personal opinion.

[1:49]Everything that he would utter was if we look at the word

[1:59]in itself within the holy Quran it has many usages.

[2:02]So means revelation that which comes down upon.

[2:04]But there are other various ways the word is used in the

[2:12]holy Quran.

[2:13]The first is the linguistic usage.

[2:16]The word itself in Arabic means a quick hidden signal.

[2:19]A quick whisper.

[2:21]If two people are whispering and they don't want anyone else to

[2:25]hear.

[2:26]If someone tries to give a signal without anyone else understanding like

[2:31]a non-verbal signal you know using a hand signal with your eyes

[2:35]you know you wink at someone such that only you and the

[2:38]other person understood no one else understood this is called this is

[2:44]used multiple times within the holy Quran Allah subhana t states the

[2:52]prophet of God Zachary he asked Allah to give me a sign

[2:59]he said your ayah your sign don't speak to people three days

[3:05]and this is a type of fasting actually a type of s

[3:10]so we don't fast in this manner our fasting is different we

[3:12]can speak but we can't eat we can't drink can't immerse your

[3:17]head under water there was a type of fasting where you don't

[3:20]speak and in fact many of us many of our dear brothers

[3:25]and sisters, myself included, sometimes we need this type of fasting.

[3:28][laughter] You know, this tongue, mashallah, it's it's a bit overactive throughout

[3:32]the year.

[3:32]It needs a good month where it can rest.

[3:34]You know, rest from all that, all that gossip.

[3:38]So, he said, "Give me a sign." Allah says, "Fast where you

[3:43]don't speak for three days." He went to his people.

[3:52]He can't speak.

[3:53]God told him don't speak three days but he starts preaching to

[3:58]people that do how can you preach to people without speaking now

[4:01]imagine I come up here and you turn off the mic and

[4:05]I can't speak how is anyone going to understand and yet prophet

[4:09]Zakaria through nonverbal signals I don't know how he must have communicated

[4:13]he must have been an excellent non-verbal communicator but without using speech

[4:19]he implored people to the faith and he implored them to do

[4:22]perhaps just you know his his aura or using certain signals without

[4:29]speech he was able to communicate.

[4:31]So this is a type of where you use you're trying to

[4:39]convey a message without speaking.

[4:42]Secondly, a second usage of within the holy Quran refers to the

[4:49]the all human beings and in fact all living beings have any

[4:54]living being has a has a what we would call a natural

[5:01]instinct.

[4:59]According to our faith, this stems from Allahel.

[5:04]Allahh states in the holy Quran, God did to the bees.

[5:13]Now are bees like are they like they can receive revelation divine

[5:18]messages?

[5:19]So this is not a divine message a divine book upon the

[5:24]bees meaning that he instilled within them that natural instinct to do

[5:32]what?

[5:33]What do bees do?

[5:35]You can go to Yemen and you will find that some of

[5:38]the most pure honey.

[5:40]Now I don't know this whole war if it's still accessible and

[5:42]you know may Allah bring ease to them and send his abundant

[5:47]upon those enemies who have killed people who have oppressed people.

[5:50]Allah all across Muslim lands and all across the globe there will

[5:56]be peace and blessings.

[5:56]You can go and you will find there's a type of honey

[6:01]so pure it's said to have numerous health benefits.

[6:02]And this is not easy to get.

[6:06]A man has to climb up mountains, literal mountains, and nestled within

[6:09]the mountains are these honeycombs.

[6:11]You find these bees.

[6:12]They produce honey.

[6:13]Who taught them to do this?

[6:16]Go up high in the mountains.

[6:19]Nestled within the mountains.

[6:20]Produce this honey.

[6:23]This is from Allahel.

[6:23]Allah did to them in the mountains in the trees you make

[6:33]your abode you make your home.

[6:40]So this is a second usage of the word where Allahh in

[6:45]numerous verses of the holy Quran he refers to other living beings

[6:48]where they receive a type of natural instinct.

[6:51]That's how we would interpret it now.

[6:53]But in Arabic you would say the the how does an animal

[6:58]that hasn't studied it's illiterate it hasn't even according to our ways

[7:03]of understanding it hasn't been taught in a classroom how does it

[7:07]know to go up and build a house in the mountains in

[7:12]1923 an Austrian biologist by the name of Carl Vanfr he was

[7:17]the first maybe not to discover but the first to document what's

[7:21]called the eight figure pattern.

[7:24]What's the eight figure pattern?

[7:29]He noticed that bees search for flowers and pollen, right?

[7:31]That's how they produce their food.

[7:33]So, he noticed that they'll stay by their hive and then one

[7:38]bee will go this way, one bee will go this way, one

[7:40]bee will they'll scatter and try to find pollen and food.

[7:44]He says that I noticed as soon as one ends up finding

[7:47]food even if it's a mile away it comes back within minutes

[7:52]the whole hive is swarming that way.

[7:54]So he says I look and I examine and you know using

[7:59]what technology they had at the time it doesn't look like it's

[8:02]talking.

[8:03]So clearly that bee is communicating.

[8:05]But how can a bee communicate if it doesn't have a mouth

[8:07]and it can't speak?

[8:09]You know head this direction northeast this degrees this much distance.

[8:12]It's a mile away 1.2 2 milesi away.

[8:14]How can it explain this?

[8:16]So he started observing the bees day in day out.

[8:20]He would look, he would observe.

[8:21]He noticed what's called an eight figure pattern.

[8:24]The bee that would go and be the first to find food,

[8:28]it would come back.

[8:28]It would do a kind of dance.

[8:29]It would fly in an eight figure pattern like the number eight

[8:34]or infinity.

[8:34]Depending on the angle in which it does this dance and how

[8:39]many times it does it, it's trying to communicate that food is

[8:41]in this direction.

[8:43]And depending on how many times it does the dance, it means

[8:46]it's this much distance away.

[8:49]You know, x amount of dancing, x amount of repeat cycles means

[8:54]maybe 500 yards.

[8:54]If you do it more, a thousand yards.

[8:57]So without using words, the bee is able to communicate the exact

[9:03]distance and location of food.

[9:04]Who taught the bee how to do this?

[9:07]This is a type of that Allah subhana wa ta'ala has built.

[9:14]Allah has guaranteed every living being.

[9:16]It's there is not even a living being within the depths of

[9:19]the ocean that Allah has not guaranteed their.

[9:23]Now for us, we can go and have professions.

[9:25]We can work.

[9:26]But what about animals that don't know how to work?

[9:27]They can't read.

[9:29]They don't understand anything.

[9:29]But they do understand.

[9:32]Allah subhana t has this builtin pre-programmed system where even they can

[9:37]attain the the Arctic turnbird is known as the bird with the

[9:47]longest migration.

[9:46]Almost every year this species of bird migrates 5,000 miles.

[9:51]And that's a lot, right?

[9:54]Some of us, you know, our parents live six miles away and,

[9:57]you know, maybe visiting once a week, once a week, once every

[10:01]10 days is more than enough, right?

[10:04]It's far.

[10:05]We don't want to drive that much.

[10:10]5,000 miles every single year.

[10:10]So, they go and then at the end of the year, they

[10:15]go back to the exact spot where they started, 5,000 miles.

[10:18]I mean, sometimes they travel a continent.

[10:21]5,000 miles is a lot.

[10:22]How does it know to go back to the exact spot that

[10:27]it started?

[10:28]You know, I've been here almost a week and I still have

[10:29]to use the GPS every time I come here [laughter] and it's

[10:33]like what?

[10:32]I drive 3, four miles.

[10:35]How can a bird that doesn't read?

[10:37]There's no signs.

[10:38]Are there freeways in the sky?

[10:40]Are there signs in miles and you know, exit 51, exit?

[10:46]Subhan Allah.

[10:44]This is builtin programming of Allahel such that it knows how to

[10:52]travel.

[10:52]I mean who even taught the bird in the first place that

[10:54]you have to migrate?

[10:55][laughter] Allah subhana t has guaranteed for every living creature at in

[11:04]various numerous ways.

[11:04]Every year in the spring you have the salmon run.

[11:08]If you're a fan of salmon and omega salmon spawn in rivers

[11:14]but then they go travel out to sea.

[11:18]Sometimes they will travel for thousands of kilometers but then before the

[11:21]end of their life cycle they go back to that exact river.

[11:24]I mean the ocean is a vast vast place.

[11:28]We've discovered less than 10% of what the ocean has to offer.

[11:33]And yet this fish right which seemingly has a fish brain knows

[11:38]the exact spot that it spawned.

[11:40]And it knows that it has to go up river.

[11:42]It has to go upstream in order to go and procreate.

[11:46]Who taught these animals all this?

[11:48]This is a type of meaning not divine revelation but a type

[11:53]of natural instinct that Allahh has blessed them with.

[12:00]A third way that wahi is mentioned within the holy Quran is

[12:05]what's known as and the story we most frequently associate with this

[12:12]type of is the story of the mother of prophet Moses peace

[12:18]be upon him she sees that the children of many is right

[12:23]they're being slaughtered left and right every newborn male child is being

[12:29]slaughtered.

[12:30]How does she save and protect her beloved infant?

[12:36]She has this to go and place the infant in a river.

[12:41]Would any normal mother do this?

[12:43]Obviously not.

[12:46][laughter] But she had that that divine inspiration that this is what

[12:52]I need to do.

[12:52]Allahh states in the holy Quran we revealed upon her.

[12:59]In what sense?

[13:02]We did it was divine inspiration.

[13:05]If you're afraid that the authorities, they're going to come, they want

[13:10]to execute him.

[13:10]A young infant baby that has no crime.

[13:12]What do you do?

[13:15]You place him in the river.

[13:16]Don't be afraid.

[13:19]Don't be upset.

[13:22]Allahh has a plan.

[13:24]Allah's promises, I will bring him back to you.

[13:27]And not long after, she's working in the house of Pharaoh nursing

[13:34]him.

[13:33]And Allah says, "I will make him amongst the male.

[13:36]I will make him amongst the greatest messengers of Allah." How does

[13:42]a mother that every single instinct in a mother screams to protect

[13:45]her child?

[13:46]How can she just place him in a river?

[13:49]This was divine inspiration.

[13:50]what we would call this type of is not unique only to

[13:56]allahel.

[13:56]So we have divine inspiration where you have that feeling that you

[14:00]want to do something good and in fact not only are the

[14:05]individuals and characters mentioned in the holy Quran capable of doing this

[14:10]you are capable of doing this as well me how can I

[14:13]have if you look at the hadith has several forms now the

[14:21]common form that everyone does is they go to the or the

[14:23]and they say give me do me a do me anar which

[14:27]Reciting the Holy Quran, opening a page and trying to understand from

[14:31]that verse that pops up if it's good, if it's bad, if

[14:36]you should avoid it.

[14:35]This is just one form of another form of mentioned in our

[14:40]narrations is actually a prayer.

[14:44]Your intention is that I have these two decisions ahead of me.

[14:49]I've consulted.

[14:49]I've really thought about them.

[14:52]I still don't know which one to do.

[14:53]You do a prayer and the intention the of this prayer is

[14:57]right after you finish the prayer you look into your heart.

[15:01]What do you feel?

[15:01]Which one is the right path?

[15:05]According to the narrations, this is from Allahel that you should choose

[15:08]this.

[15:08]So this is another form of yes, one way is the Quran

[15:11]that we're all familiar with.

[15:14]But this is actually another form of so if you want to

[15:18]feel this divine inspiration, this is one method.

[15:20]But is not unique only to Allah.

[15:24]According to the holy Quran, the devil, he's also possible.

[15:32]He's also capable of doing this.

[15:34]You know, some people any anything that comes to their mind is

[15:38]divine inspiration.

[15:39]You know, whatever occurs in this graveyard of thoughts is is divinely

[15:43]inspired.

[15:44]Well, sorry to break the news, but sometimes some ideas and thoughts

[15:48]can be satanically inspired.

[15:51]Not everything that occurs in our minds is from allahel.

[15:54]This dy is a dy of trial.

[15:58]It's a battlefield between us and the devil.

[16:02]So yes, sometimes he will try to do.

[16:05]Allahh states, "Do not eat from that which the name of Allah

[16:08]has not been recited upon." The devils, those minions ofl of Satan,

[16:21]they will do to their people, to their crowds, to those humans

[16:27]that are influenced by them so that they can come and argue

[16:31]with you.

[16:29]They can come and try to guide you to falsehood.

[16:32]So not every type of every thought I have in my mind,

[16:36]you know, one day I wake up, I feel something, oh, this

[16:38]must be from Allah.

[16:40]Sometimes the Quran says this can also be from the devil.

[16:42]So we have to be careful.

[16:45]We have to think is the thought that I have.

[16:47]Is it something that is aligned with the holy Quran?

[16:49]Is it not aligned with the holy Quran?

[16:51]Not everything that comes into my mind tell us it's and there

[16:56]is a type of to the angels as well.

[16:59]Allahh says God does this this divine inspiration to the angels that

[17:09]I am with you and you go and support believers.

[17:13]Allah has tasked the greatest of and the most numerous of the

[17:20]angels with supporting you.

[17:21]As long as you stay steadfast life God knows that there's many

[17:26]obstacles in life.

[17:28]There's going to be lots of trouble.

[17:29]There's going to be days where we have our our highs and

[17:31]there's going to be days where we have our troughs, our lows.

[17:36]Allah says that's why I've empowered the angels to come to your

[17:40]help.

[17:41]So know my dear brothers and sisters that we are not alone.

[17:46]Whatever struggles we may have, Allah has empowered the angels to assist

[17:50]you.

[17:51]And is there any better aid to have than the angels on

[17:53]your side?

[17:54]If you have the angels on your side, by Allah, you will

[17:55]always overcome your struggles.

[17:58]But you need to have faith.

[17:59]You need to be steadfast.

[18:03]Fourthly, and lastly, there is a type of usage of in the

[18:10]Holy Quran that we commonly associate with the word, which means divine

[18:15]revelation.

[18:14]When there is a divine message, a word from God, a message

[18:19]to humanity, we use the word.

[18:20]And this has many many many numerous instances in the holy Quran.

[18:24]Allahh states Allah says I've done I've revealed upon you divine messages

[18:34]to you oh Muhammad and to many other prophets before you rool

[18:38]yes he had the greatest of message but he was not the

[18:43]only messenger.

[18:44]He was only the last in a long line of divine messages.

[18:47]In another verse Allah says Stick to what Allah subhana t has

[18:58]revealed to you and do not follow the path of mush.

[19:02]If I know that Allah subhana ta wants me to follow a

[19:08]certain path.

[19:06]Even if I see all of society, all my friends, everyone at

[19:13]work, everyone in Nova Scotia, they're on this path, but Allah says

[19:18]you follow this path.

[19:22]I look on the left and I say no.

[19:23]whatever types of whatever types of you know no matter what they

[19:32]say how matter how attractive it may sound how beautiful it may

[19:36]look at the end of the day anything that is not from

[19:40]allahel it's from the devil it's from Satan if I don't follow

[19:42]the path of Allah what does that mean that means I'm following

[19:48]the path ofl so yes Allah has empowered the devil that he

[19:52]can do the path path of fisk and and is of course

[19:58]embedded with flowers with zena with beauty that's why people fall for

[20:05]it and sometimes the path of is difficult it's filled with thorns

[20:08]but at the end of the day do I want to reach

[20:12]the path which will take me to hellfire which will take me

[20:15]to or I want to follow a path that will give me

[20:19]that final abode where I can finally have that rest and enjoy

[20:24]all the pleasures Allah subhana wa ta'ala promised me within the holy

[20:30]Quran in another verse allahel states we've revealed to you the same

[20:41]way we revealed to Noah the prophet of Allah the same way

[20:49]we reveal it to all these individuals You are simply the last

[20:59]in a long line of divine messages.

[21:02]What were these divine messages, my dear brothers and sisters?

[21:07]Do not follow B.

[21:10]Do not follow those oppressors.

[21:11]Do not follow a path that is guided by the devil.

[21:16]Follow the path of the prophets.

[21:17]Follow the path of hak, of good word, of being a good

[21:24]neighbor, being a good spouse, a good mother, a good son.

[21:26]This is the message of all divinely inspired prophets.

[21:33]In the verse I mentioned in the beginning, Allahh states, Allah says

[21:42]there are only three ways that a normal human being.

[21:46]So we discussed prior to this that even animals, ants, bees, devils,

[21:51]angels, they can all receive a type of wi.

[21:54]But as for human beings, there's only three ways that they can

[21:57]receive.

[21:58]This Quran, this verse makes it clear.

[22:04]Number one, revelation meaning an angel of Allah comes down with divinely

[22:16]guided wisdom meaning Allah subhana wa ta'ala will create a voice who

[22:27]was Moses peace be upon him Moses he did not speak directly

[22:31]with Allah Allah does not have a mouth such that he speaks

[22:35]Allah would create a voice and that voice would communicate with prophet

[22:40]Moses.

[22:41]So which is this type of divine inspiration speech or Allah sends

[22:50]an angel with a divinely guided message.

[22:54]So number one here in the first part of the verse means

[23:01]that divine you know inspiration that we talked about the Quran had

[23:09]two types of the and the tenil.

[23:11]One type is over 23 years Allah sends such that he sends

[23:18]the verses of Allah upon the prophet and the prophet would relate

[23:21]to the people.

[23:23]That's one type.

[23:22]another type and that happened in this blessed month of Ramadan or

[23:31]he was in he was in the midst of worship when Allah

[23:35]revealed the entire contents of the whole Quran upon his heart.

[23:40]It wasn't in speech form.

[23:42]It wasn't even through.

[23:42]It was directly from Allah to So yes, even at the beginning

[23:50]of of his message, his prophethhood, Allah had the contents of the

[23:53]entire Quran in his heart.

[23:56]Number two, creating a voice like with prophet Moses.

[24:00]And number three, sending an angel with a message.

[24:04]As for the prophet, what were the types of that were relevant

[24:09]to the prophet?

[24:09]Because according to our hadith, we don't have a hadith where Allahel

[24:16]would directly speak to the prophet.

[24:17]So what manner would Allahel communicate with the prophet?

[24:23]Number one, true and divine inspired dreams.

[24:32]Yes, the prophets whenever they would dream their dreams were from Allah.

[24:37]According to this narration from Im peace be upon him.

[24:46]He says the first form of between the prophet and allahel was

[24:51]before that night in which the contents of the Quran was revealed.

[24:54]Earlier on in his life, the prophet would experience these divinely inspired

[25:00]dreams.

[25:01]Does this have precedent in the Holy Quran?

[25:03]Yes, of course.

[25:05]Allahh states, Prophet Abraham is speaking to his son is he says,

[25:13]"My son, I see myself in a dream.

[25:17]I see myself slaughtering you." And prophets know that whatever is in

[25:23]their dream is divine.

[25:23]It's a message from God.

[25:27]It's not a useless dream.

[25:29]He's asking his son, "What do you recommend?" Now, imagine your father

[25:33]comes up to you.

[25:35]He tells you this.

[25:37]How do you even respond?

[25:37]Yeah, go ahead, dad.

[25:40]I mean, how how do you even begin by responding?

[25:43]A lot, you know, a lot of people probably step number one

[25:48]is run away, call the police.

[25:49]But is knew who his father was.

[25:51]He know his father is not any random Joe Dick or Harry.

[25:56]He knew his father is a friend of Allah and is himself

[26:01]was a prophet.

[26:03]He was divinely guided.

[26:03]How does he respond?

[26:06]He says, "Oh God, oh my father, do what Allah has commanded.

[26:11]I accept." I will be amongst those who are patient.

[26:17]Can we have such iman, such faith that no matter what the

[26:23]trial in front of us is, we say yes, I accept.

[26:26]I literally see the sword in front of me and I say

[26:27]yes.

[26:28]Ya Allah, if this is what you want, I accept.

[26:31]Can we attain such a level of iman?

[26:34]Regardless of what struggles may come our way, we submit.

[26:39]And that's what Islam is.

[26:40]Islam is submission.

[26:44]meaning ya Allah I understand this dy is this dy is a

[26:47]place where I'm tested I'm tried I'm refined so that I am

[26:52]ready for the therefore whatever comes my way I accept it's difficult

[26:58]so one form of is through dreams now my dear brothers sisters

[27:03]does that mean tonight inshallah when we go we have our beauty

[27:05]rest we sleep and then in the morning tomorrow morning we wake

[27:10]up any dream we see we call the local sheh we say

[27:11]I saw this in my dream I saw a flower I saw

[27:15]someone attending someone's funeral I saw myself eating butter chicken if we

[27:19]see these dreams my dear brothers and sisters 99.999999999999999999% of the times

[27:28]it's just nonsense more the factor that has to do with why

[27:31]you saw that dream more than divine messages is more likely the

[27:36]butter chicken that you had at night for that influenced the type

[27:38]of dream that you saw so our Dreams are different than the

[27:41]dreams of prophets.

[27:43]Our dreams, they don't really mean much.

[27:46]One of our dear brothers, he was attending Hajj one year and

[27:50]may Allahh all bless us the opportunity of completing the Hajj.

[27:53]So he says, I was arguing with one of these, you know,

[27:57]the these people who volunteer with the long beards and we were

[28:01]arguing, you know, who's upon when we pray, should we pray with

[28:05]our hands down or our hands crossed?

[28:06]So he says he says I saw my father saw a dream

[28:12]years ago in his dream he would pray with his hands crossed.

[28:15]So this brother he said wow really he says yeah now this

[28:23]is proof that you have to pray this way.

[28:25]He says guess what 10 years ago my father also saw a

[28:27]dream whereas prayed with his hands down he says really [laughter] so

[28:32]what do we whose dream do we accept?

[28:34]So the guy, he says, "No, I'm just joking.

[28:36]My dad didn't see that dream." He says, "But is Islam such

[28:40]a weak religion that we argue based on dreams?

[28:41]Your dad saw this dream.

[28:44]My mom saw this dream.

[28:44]My sister saw this dream." Islam when you want to prove something.

[28:48]And in fact, that's how a Muslim should behave in all aspects

[28:52]of his or her life using evidence not just dreams.

[28:57]So our dreams don't mean anything.

[29:00]People sometimes see dreams that you know I didn't fast in my

[29:02]dream.

[29:02]So meaning passing is not watchon me.

[29:04]I saw a dream that I did this this dreams my dear

[29:08]brothers and sisters for 99.9999% of us simply don't mean anything.

[29:14]Secondly, the type of or revelation that is relevant to prophet Muhammad

[29:22]peace be upon him is the type of that involves according to

[29:26]our hadith was the only angel tasked with delivering to prophet Muhammad.

[29:32]So throughout these 23 years of prophethood, the only angel he interacted

[29:37]with in terms of revelation from Allah was and you know what

[29:45]an honor for to be worthy of being the recipient of being

[29:48]the messenger of now he had three forms in which he would

[29:54]appear before.

[29:56]Number one, his original true form.

[30:01]And according to our hadith, this only happened twice.

[30:04]Allah was able to see him in his true authentic form only

[30:11]twice.

[30:13]Allahh says the first time that he saw he says, "I looked

[30:18]in the east, I saw him.

[30:19]I looked in the west, I saw him." That's how grand he

[30:23]was.

[30:24]He occupied the entire sky.

[30:25]What a you know what kind of aura he must have had.

[30:29]That was his true authentic form.

[30:31]But majority of cases that he came down upon prophet Muhammad, it

[30:36]was not in his true form.

[30:38]We have narrations that many times that he would come down and

[30:44]have with it was in a human form.

[30:46]He would shapeshift and look like a human.

[30:48]And in fact, we have narrations that say who he looked like.

[30:50]There was a man in Mecca and later on in Medina.

[30:53]He was known to be the most handsome man in Medina.

[30:57]Like some of our brothers here who need to be, you know,

[30:59]on these models modeling magazines.

[31:02]He was known as the most handsome man in Medina.

[31:04]And his name was Khalifi.

[31:08]You know for some reason this guy mashallah I guess he just

[31:12]had good genetics such that whenever he came down upon he would

[31:18]look like that's why the companions knew if was sitting next to

[31:23]and they were whispering they had some you know intimate talk they

[31:26]knew to leave him alone because sometimes it's not actually is sleeping

[31:30]in his house he's eating with his wife but this other is

[31:35]actually who has come down in the form of a human And

[31:38]number three, he would sometimes just hear his voice.

[31:43]He wouldn't see anything.

[31:43]He would hear the voice of with the And third, and in

[31:51]I'll conclude with this, the last type of interaction that had with

[32:00]Allah is direct unmitigated experiences.

[32:02]And this would happen quite often according to he has in his

[32:10]book that once this is a hadith that once he was in

[32:14]the mosque after he led prayer people saw him sweating and he

[32:18]could he was you know enumerated with something for a few minutes

[32:22]he was like that until he fainted.

[32:26]After he woke up, the companions ask him, "What just happened?" According

[32:33]to narrations in the in our Sunni books, they say he met

[32:37]in his original true form.

[32:40]But according to the school of thought of the B, this is

[32:46]not true.

[32:45]Because according to the hadith of Imad in what manner would appear

[32:55]before he says whenever Jira wanted to come down with he would

[33:01]first ask permission from Allah that's how he honored Allah he would

[33:05]ask for permission he would come down and sit between his feet

[33:10]like a slave that's the respect had forasoolah so So the companions

[33:16]they asked im they said okay if it's not that came down

[33:21]upon him upon when he fainted then who was it?

[33:24]He says my grandfather he had those direct unmediated experiences with Allahel

[33:31]in that moment he met Allah Allahbar how exactly was that meeting

[33:37]what exactly did Allah experience we don't know but we know that

[33:43]he had the honor of having a direct relationship with Allah so

[33:48]these are the various forms of that experienced and in general we

[33:52]discussed the various ious types of revelation and as mentioned within the

[33:55]holy Quran.

[33:57]May Allah subhana wa ta'ala makes us a a people that we

[34:02]stick to the of Allah that we stick to the message of

[34:08]Islam and the holy wisdom of the holy Quran.

[34:09]Once when Muslims were on their way to fight the kingdom of

[34:16]Persia, the enemy was on that side of the river.

[34:19]They were waiting for Muslims to cross.

[34:21]Those Muslims, they didn't know how to swim.

[34:22]And I don't blame them.

[34:24]I mean, they live in like Arabia.

[34:26]It's a desert.

[34:25]There's no water.

[34:28]The hadith says they held each other's hands.

[34:32]They started doing and they walked across the river.

[34:37]My dear brothers, sisters, some people ask, why is it that now

[34:41]Muslims, we fallen behind?

[34:44]Why are we not like the West?

[34:46]Why are not we not like the rest?

[34:48]People that are more advanced, our societies are always behind.

[34:50]One reason my dear brothers and sisters is that early Muslims they

[34:55]hated the call of the Quran the wi that was revealed upon

[35:00]prophet Muhammad they took it seriously but now you find that's not

[35:03]the case yeah maybe we have the shell of Islam the shell

[35:08]of faith but the contents are not there the contents of treating

[35:12]your neighbor better than you treat yourself the content of governments having

[35:17]a responsibility towards people not oppressing them stealing from their wealth rather

[35:21]together proper and equitable distribution of wealth.

[35:24]Land in Islam is free.

[35:25]You shouldn't have to buy land from the government.

[35:28]It should be free for anyone to come developed as long as

[35:30]it's not owned by anyone else.

[35:34]The Islamic concept of leaving this for the you find all this

[35:41]conflict we see in the Middle East in Sudan in what it's

[35:46]about?

[35:46]It's about land.

[35:46]It's about money.

[35:48]It's about personal petty desires.

[35:50]The contents of Islam is that we let go of all this.

[35:54]The same way we see ants fighting over crumbs.

[35:56]That's how angels see us.

[35:58]Fighting over land, fighting over wealth, fighting over power.

[36:02]We let go of all this and we aspire to higher, more

[36:05]esoteric causes.

[36:07]May Allah subhana ta once again guide us to the path of

[36:12]the holy Quran.

[36:13]May Allah subhana ta guide us to all that is and all

[36:15]that is good and all that is true.

[36:17]May Allahh send his peace and his blessings upon Muslims all across

[36:22]the world.

[36:21]May Allah send his peace and serenity across all those undergoing trials.

[36:26]May Allahh bless those who have attended this majus, those who have

[36:29]instituted this majus and support this majus.

[36:32]May Allah subh send his mercy and upon our departed ones, our

[36:39]loved ones and for their sake and our sake, let us all

[36:44]recite.

[36:42]Before that, Muhammad Ali Muhammad [music] >> [music]
