Speaker 1 (00:01):
Basmine Lah Walhalla was salatu salam Ala he my bad ah.
I mean, for those of you who don't know, a
lot of Atala has busted me to move to a

(00:25):
new city and to a better apartment. Well in him.
And one of the things that I want to remind
myself and advise you of is the tremendous hadith of

(00:49):
the professor of Lah was selling when he gave the
advice to the young iban abass or the hotel. I
knew him when he told him, Yeah, Rulam, let me

(01:14):
teach you some words. And the prophet of Am he
told even a bass or your law, I know who
Yah Yanni two. Guard your relationship with Allah, and a

(01:43):
law will guard you. Guard you your relationship with a Llah,
and you will find him in front of you if
you ask ask a law. If you seek help, seek

(02:05):
help from a law. And know that if all the
the nations were to gather together to benefit you with
something that a law had not decreed for you, they

(02:26):
won't be able to benefit with They won't be to
benefit you with it. And if all of the nations
were to gather together to harm you with something that
a law has not decreed for you. They will not
be able to harm you with it. The pens have
been lifted and the pages are dry. I want to

(02:52):
remind myself and remind you to ask a lot about dollar.
I asked a law to battle Cardana to bless me
with a clean, quiet place with quiet neighbors. And that's

(03:16):
exactly what he blessed me with. So if you ask
ask a law, if you seek help, seek help from
a law. And my young brother, young brother Ebo him
that who was visiting a week ago. He reminded me

(03:43):
because I was. I was saying to him, you know
that I wanted to go live in the city of Medina,
and he was saying, well, just you know, ask a
lot and I was like, well, you know, we'll not
allowed to make unrealistic duet like this, and even saying
to he said to me, he says, it's not an

(04:06):
unrealistic due, he said, and look at what a lot
of actyle has already done for you. He moved you
from Jersey to Beckley, then he move you from Beckley
to Charleston. Why can't he move you to Medema? And
I said to myself, wow. And also this is a

(04:31):
benefit of being around people who believe in Alan the
last day. Because they actually believe, so they can give
you advice that is consistent with the proper belief. I

(04:56):
won't go on about this matter. I will say that
today is the eighth of Moharram fourteen forty six, fourteen
forty seventh pardon me in correspondence with the third of June,

(05:17):
I mean the third of July twenty twenty five, and
we are on the ninth fundamental principle. In the Fundamental
Beliefs of a Muslim by cher Sally Alafaousan Hafi, the

(05:38):
lahou ta Alah, the share says, among the fundamental principles
of the people of Sunna in the community when presenting
an argument, is that they follow that which is found
in the book of Allah and the Suner, the messenger

(06:00):
of Allah Solm both inwardly and outwardly. They followed that
which all of the companions were pun the Mahajun and
the Ansar, the ones who migrated, and the helpers of Madina.

(06:24):
And they specifically follow whatever the rightly guided caliphs or
the law on hum were a pun as a messenger,
but seldom advised with this. In his saying, a Lakhm
Bisunati shi Din stick to my Sona and the Sunna

(06:51):
of the rightly guided caliphs. They do not give any
precedents to the speech of anyone over the speech of
a law. In the speech of his messenger was selling them.
And that is why they have been called the people
of the Book and Sunna, after the Book of Allah

(07:15):
and the son of his messengers al Lah. While they
were seem they take that which the scholars of this
uma have unanimously agreed upon. This is the third foundation
that they rely upon, after the first two foundations, which
are the Book and the Sunna. Whatever the people differ concerning,

(07:39):
then they return it back to the Book and the Sunna,
implementing the statement of a law Tabero Katala for in
Tnaza to Fiche and Flahisuli in Kunture. Dadik has a

(08:00):
new wheeler. If you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer
it to a law in its messenger. If you believe
in a law in the last day, that is better
and more suitable for final determination. So four verse fifty nine.

(08:28):
They do not believe that any individual other than the
messenger of a law them is infallible. They are not
bigoted to the opinion of anyone unless it is in
accordance with the book and the Sunmer. They believe that

(08:48):
the scholar who is qualified to make itsty had can
be in error or be correct, and they do not
permit any one to make ishty had unless they have
fulfilled the conditions that are well known to the people
of knowledge. In areas where independent reasoning is permitted, there

(09:15):
should be no criticism, and differing in such issues of
independent reasoning should not cause enmity in boycott cotting to
appear amongst them, as done by the bigoted, blind followers
and the people of innovation. Rather, they should love, support

(09:39):
and pray behind one another, even though they differ in
some subsidiary matters. Let stop here for a second. Let's
be clear about this. This is not what's going on
in the Omamahammad so alone, like this element. This is
not what's going on the Muslims, not all of them.

(10:07):
Many of the Muslims have become enemies to one another
for these issues. Let's be clear about that. Many of
the Muslims have become enemies of one another because of
these issues. And what the share is saying here, this
is not from the son of the prophecies of the

(10:29):
Lord Selomen his companions read, dear law, I don't mention
mine now. The Share continues, this is in opposition to
the people of innovation, for verily they show enmity or
declared to be astray or declared to be disbelievers those

(10:53):
who oppose them in these matters. The Share concludes this
work by stating, in addition to these fundamental principles that

(11:22):
have been mentioned, the people of Sunna adorn themselves with
great characteristics which are from those matters which constitute perfection
of the creed. From the greatest of these characteristics is
they enjoy what is good and forbid what is evil,

(11:47):
in line with what is required by the Islamic legislation,
acting in accordance with the statement of a lawsuit panoadala
kundo uma and rijectly nas top morona bil maruv tanahuna
alan munkar. What took me on a bilive. You are

(12:08):
the best of people ever raised up for mankind. You're
enjoying what is good and forbid what is evil, and
you believe in a lah in accordance with the prophetor
likes what I'm saying whoever from amongst you sees an evil,
then he should change it with his hand, and if

(12:28):
he is not able to do that, then with his tongue.
And if he is not able to do that, then
hate it in his heart. And that is the weakest
of faith. We have said in line with what is
required by the Islamic legislation, in opposition to the motezela
who depart from what the Islamic legislation requires when enjoining

(12:52):
the good and forbidding the evil. They believe that in
joining the good and forbidding the evil is rebelling against
the Muslim leaders if they can an act of disobedience,
even though it is less than disbelief. The people of
sun in the community believe that the leaders should be
advised in such situations without rebelling against them, in order

(13:15):
to unify the ranks and to avoid splitting and different
czechhal islam ibent taming at a him al lah He said,
there is not a group known throughout history that rebelled
against the one in authority, accept that their rebellion resulted
in a greater evil than that which they set out

(13:38):
to remove. Number two from the characteristics of the people
of sun in the community is that they preserve the
performance of the Islamic religious rites, such as the performance
of the Jumar prayer and the congregational prayer, contrary to
the innovators and hypocrites who do not establish Juma or

(14:02):
the congregational prayers. Number three from their characteristics is that
they undertake the task of advising every Muslim and cooperating
with them upon righteousness and piety, acting upon the statement
of the prophets of of lalliv Selim. The religion is
sincerity of purpose a denu nasiha We said, to whom

(14:30):
he replied to a law, his book, his messenger, to
the Muslim leaders and to the common people, and implementing
the profits of Lallier Suldom's statement, the believer to the
believer is like a building. They strengthen one another. Number

(14:51):
four from the characteristics of the people of Sunna is
that they affirm and resolute in times of distress when
they are tried and tested, and they demonstrate this by
being patient in times of affliction, being thankful in times
of ease, and being happy and pleased with what a

(15:12):
lot with what has been the creed. Number five from
their characteristics is that they are doing themselves with noble
mannerisms and good deeds. They are dutiful to the parents,
keep the family ties, and treat their neighbors well. They

(15:32):
forbid pride, boasting, transgression, oppression, and looking down upon people
acting upon the statement of a loss of kanawadala wabu,
the laha whiku bihiche wabilali dany saying Wabi the quarabasaki,

(15:57):
while Jaddi the q uh what Jaddy what jaddy? And
junubi what saw he be being gem b wabane sabida
melakat a manucum in the la your head bull man kennetalin,

(16:21):
worship a lot and join none with him, and worship
and be good and dutiful to your parents, to your kinfolk,
and do good to parents, to kinfolk, orphans, the poor,

(16:42):
the neighbor who is near, the neighbor who is a stranger,
the companion by your side, the wayfarer you meet, and
those whom your right hands possess verily a law that's
not like such as are proud and boastful. So for
verse thirty six and the saying of the prophet Sali,

(17:03):
But seldom the most complete of the believers in faith
are those who are best in manners. We ask a
law as Ajl, by his blessings and generosity, to make
us from them, and that he does not cause our
hearts to deviate after he has guided us. And may

(17:24):
the peace and blessings be upun I Prophet Muhammed, all
of his family and his companions hather what's the lallah
better being a Muhammed
