1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:12,519
Kiss Mila rahmani Rahi in the name
of Allah, the most Gracious, the

2
00:00:12,599 --> 00:00:32,439
most merciful. Heard a low excellence
presents lessens from the stories of the prophets

3
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:53,520
by Mufti Ismail. Even Mussa menk
his Salam sheep, Peace be upon him.

4
00:00:54,159 --> 00:01:03,159
About a cattle hand rilla hiwa Kafa
or sol Laalah who is seldom abaraka

5
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:08,120
alah Ibadi Hiladin Astafa Aabad, we
praise a loss of Hannahua to Allah for

6
00:01:08,239 --> 00:01:15,280
all praise indeed belongs to him.
We ask him to send blessings and salutations

7
00:01:15,359 --> 00:01:19,439
upon the master piece Muhammad salaalahu Ali
he was seldom, and we ask a

8
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:23,159
loss sub hannah Hua to Alah to
bless all his companions, all the messengers

9
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:27,599
whom he has sent, and all
their companions. And may Allah bless every

10
00:01:27,599 --> 00:01:32,439
single one of us in our offspring. We also ask a lossub Hannahawa to

11
00:01:32,439 --> 00:01:34,599
Alah to grant us every form of
goodness and to give us every reason to

12
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:40,439
smile, for indeed the smile is
a great act of worship. When we

13
00:01:40,519 --> 00:01:44,840
smile, it breaks a lot of
ice, and many people who probably may

14
00:01:44,879 --> 00:01:49,200
have been slightly frightened of us,
They become automatically close to us. They

15
00:01:49,239 --> 00:01:53,079
feel the closeness and the warmth.
So this is why it is the Sunna

16
00:01:53,079 --> 00:01:57,400
of the prophets of Allah. Hu
are he was seldom to smile. May

17
00:01:57,439 --> 00:02:00,840
Alas of Hanahua to Allah, grant
us that understanding. We have been speaking

18
00:02:00,879 --> 00:02:07,159
about Prophet Adam alaihisala to a Salam, and we heard yesterday how he passed

19
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,560
away and how he was buried.
We also heard of how two of his

20
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:15,599
sons had fought, with one of
them murdering the other, and what happened

21
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,240
as a result. What we need
to know is there was another of his

22
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:25,080
sons whom we made mention of very
briefly yesterday. His name was si alaihis

23
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:30,840
sala to a Salam. In the
English language, some say said, and

24
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,120
I would like to think in the
Urdu or the Gujarati languages, they say

25
00:02:34,199 --> 00:02:40,800
said, alasub hanahuat Ala knows best. However, this son of Adam was

26
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:46,000
very close to him. He obeyed
his instructions he learned from his father.

27
00:02:46,599 --> 00:02:52,039
He actually used to remind his brethren, his brothers and the nephews and so

28
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,360
on, and the grand nephews.
Whilst Adam alais sala to a Salam was

29
00:02:55,400 --> 00:03:00,759
alive as well. He continued to
remind and to rend people of the beginning

30
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,680
because there was nothing nothing else to
remind them about it that particular time,

31
00:03:06,479 --> 00:03:09,879
besides to worship Allah alone, and
how Chaipan had made a promise and so

32
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:15,719
on. So this prophet of Allah
suhannahuata Alah has not been made mention of

33
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,199
in the Quran. However, we
find made mention of him made in the

34
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,159
haditha of the prophets a lallaho aale
he was seldom where Rasulu las alaalahu Ali

35
00:03:23,199 --> 00:03:29,879
he was seldom says that there were
one hundred and four chronicles that were revealed

36
00:03:30,199 --> 00:03:35,719
or parchments, and from them fifty
were revealed to Sheath Alai his Salah to

37
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:40,800
ars slam. Now, as time
passed, it's very important that we picture

38
00:03:42,039 --> 00:03:46,199
what happened. There was one of
the sons known as Kabil or Cain.

39
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:53,800
He had aggressiveness in his behavior,
He had greed, he had arrogance.

40
00:03:54,199 --> 00:03:58,840
He was a tough character, difficult
to get along with. So what he

41
00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:02,000
did he decided to depart, to
leave the rest and to go away on

42
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,479
his own somewhere very far away,
so Adam alai is Salam. Prior to

43
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,039
his death, he used to live
with Sheath alais Salam and with all these

44
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,840
other children of his in the mountainous
regions, in the mountains. And now

45
00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:18,759
this young man decided, or Kabil
decided to go to the valleys and to

46
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:25,319
go to the flat land somewhere further
away. Later on, Sheath alaihi sala

47
00:04:25,399 --> 00:04:28,959
to a Salam, was given an
instruction by a lass of hannahuat Alah.

48
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:34,000
Part of his shariah was that it
was prohibited to mix with the people who

49
00:04:34,079 --> 00:04:39,800
were gone onto the other side.
This man Kabil took his own family with

50
00:04:40,079 --> 00:04:44,399
and he went away. They had
their children, they had their own characteristics,

51
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,800
and it was prohibited to mix with
them. That was the shariah revealed

52
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,759
to Sheath alaihi is Salah to was
Salam. And they followed it. They

53
00:04:50,759 --> 00:04:55,199
did not mix, and they were
saved to a great degree. After some

54
00:04:55,319 --> 00:05:01,040
time a problem arose. If we
recall Chaitan, when he refused to prostrate

55
00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:04,399
to Adam a lead his Salah to
Salam. He made a promise to Alas

56
00:05:04,439 --> 00:05:08,600
of Hannah Hawatala. He says,
I promise you I will show you.

57
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:12,839
I'll lead them astray, and alas
of Hannah Howatala says, go and try

58
00:05:13,199 --> 00:05:15,759
whoever follows you from amongst them.
They are losers. They will be with

59
00:05:15,879 --> 00:05:20,519
you in hell fire. But my
worshippers who worship me, who have turned

60
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,639
to me, you will never be
able to overpower them. Hana hot Ala,

61
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,800
grant us the ability to overpower the
devil rather than him overpowering us.

62
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,879
So alas Suhannah howat Ala says.
And this verse is made mention of in

63
00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:50,600
isra wastef zis man is stout artamin
home sautika, bik sharik kumfin walidum wamaid

64
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,639
alas is go oh devil, oh
satan oh he please go and try and

65
00:06:00,879 --> 00:06:05,480
befool them gradually as you wish.
Go and use your sound. Now the

66
00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:10,199
word south is used. Use your
south. What is the south of Chaipan,

67
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:15,319
the sound of Chaipan, the voice
of Chaipan. The Mufasirien. Almost

68
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,519
all of them have made mention of
music and musical instruments. And this is

69
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:25,160
a verse in Suatu Isra and alas
ud Hannahuatalyasis, go try and control them.

70
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,040
Use whatever you have at your disposal. Those who know me and those

71
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:32,279
who worship me, they will never
follow you. So he says alas is,

72
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:36,319
go and try. You can use
your sounds, you can use your

73
00:06:36,959 --> 00:06:43,920
cavalry, you can use your infantry, and go and be a partner in

74
00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:48,240
their wealth, which means go and
teach them whatever you want. What was

75
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:50,560
that meant to be? Look at
the books of the f Siir. They

76
00:06:50,600 --> 00:07:00,360
all make mention of illegal income,
ilicit prohibited relationships. The income number one

77
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,959
when a person wants to derive income
from that which is prohibited. And the

78
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:10,920
next part of the verse says,
go and be a part of their relationships

79
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:16,279
as well in their children. You
can have a portion. And what them

80
00:07:16,279 --> 00:07:19,639
of a Syrian say is this means
go and encourage them to do what you

81
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:25,319
want in terms of illicit sexual behavior. And let's see what happens. Let's

82
00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:30,199
see who wins. Laho akaba so
chipan. From that time, from that

83
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,600
time he bother us in mind,
and he was given this authority as a

84
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,839
test for all of us. Remember
why are we here? We are here

85
00:07:38,319 --> 00:07:43,600
because Adam Adaihi Salah to a Salam
had promised allahs subhanahuata Alah that I seek

86
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,120
forgiveness for what I've done, and
I will not do it again. And

87
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:50,920
Alas subhanahuat Alah sent man on to
earth in order to test them one word

88
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,839
test. So if anyone thinks we
are here for another reason, they're wrong.

89
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,519
We know we are here for a
test. Everything we see is actually

90
00:08:00,639 --> 00:08:05,120
a test from Alas subanahwat Alah.
In fact, this evening also we had

91
00:08:05,199 --> 00:08:07,959
verses that we had read. We
are a lot Subhanah howat alas is,

92
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:30,199
yeah, are you helada a man
la mina soidud garima hokkum lay beautiful verses

93
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,200
of the Quran. You see in
the condition of a haram, it is

94
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,559
prohibited to hunt, so alas is, oh, you who believe we will

95
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:43,600
test you by making something happen for
you. When you are in the condition

96
00:08:43,759 --> 00:08:48,600
of a haram, those hunting animals
will come very close to you, as

97
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,720
though they are saying, hunt me, hunt me. But remember it's prohibited

98
00:08:52,919 --> 00:08:56,960
that we will do for you,
just to test you. Who is going

99
00:08:56,039 --> 00:09:01,080
to fear Allah subhana Alah seemed to
them. But they know that a loss

100
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:07,279
of hannahuwat Alah is all watchful.
So this means in our lives. In

101
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,360
fact, it reminds me of what
Alas of Hannah Howat Alah speaks about in

102
00:09:09,399 --> 00:09:13,720
the Quran. The Jewish people,
very interestingly a loss subhanah houwat Alah says,

103
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,159
they had a sabbath, the Sabbath. They declared that on this day

104
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,720
you cannot work at all. So
what happened? Allah tested them the same

105
00:09:22,759 --> 00:09:30,440
way you know the Koran says,
eat team him heat any sabbath team suah

106
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:39,120
alasm ton alah, team kadallic be
my canon, have sompoo on that Saturday.

107
00:09:39,279 --> 00:09:43,679
The fishermen who were not allowed to
work according to their own laws,

108
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,279
they saw the fish as though the
fish are saying, come fish, We

109
00:09:48,399 --> 00:09:52,960
know that it's a day when you're
not allowed to fish. Amazing, amazing.

110
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:56,080
So in order to come around that, they used to cast their nets

111
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:01,720
Friday evening, pick them up on
Sunday morning. Akaba lahu akaba. So

112
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,919
Allah says, you cannot do that. This is a test. This is

113
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,759
why Allah Subhannah Hawatalah will test all
of us. Certain things are at hand,

114
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,639
they are reachable. They are if
I can use the word committable.

115
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,360
A sin is committable. But whether
we commit it or not depends on how

116
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:22,759
much we fear Allah and what consciousness
we have of Alla Supannah hawat Alah.

117
00:10:22,919 --> 00:10:28,720
So this Chaipan he remembered this,
and he then came. He decided,

118
00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:31,559
let me go and tackle man.
And I want to show man how to

119
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,960
sin, because man had to learn
how to sin. Remember, if you

120
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:39,200
haven't seen something, you probably wouldn't
know how to do it. I was

121
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,879
speaking to one of the youngsters from
amongst us here two days back, very

122
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:48,639
interesting, and he made mention of
something regarding materialism that you see, if

123
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:58,360
you are driving the latest masides and
next year, if Mercedes does not advertise

124
00:10:58,519 --> 00:11:01,679
the newer one day have you will
be so happy with yours because you haven't

125
00:11:01,759 --> 00:11:05,879
yet seen the new one. And
two three years later, you will still

126
00:11:05,919 --> 00:11:09,960
be happy with yours for as long
as you believe it's the latest one.

127
00:11:09,399 --> 00:11:13,480
The same applies to your phone.
When you have the iPhone, for example,

128
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,200
they call it the iPhone four,
you'll be so happy with it subrana

129
00:11:18,279 --> 00:11:22,240
lah because you have not yet seen
the six that has come out. Laho

130
00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:24,200
akbar. See everyone's looking at me, when did that come out? Laho

131
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,480
akaba, loho akkaba. Don't worry
I don't know of it. But this

132
00:11:28,639 --> 00:11:31,159
is how man is that when you
don't know something, you happy. This

133
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,519
is why you have your wife.
You be happy with her. The minute

134
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,320
you do not lower your gaze and
so on, you start getting upset with

135
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,240
what you have based on something you
don't even know. La hu akaba,

136
00:11:43,639 --> 00:11:46,639
laho akaba. The same applies to
our condition as man. We happy with

137
00:11:46,759 --> 00:11:50,960
what we have, and we are
so happy with it for as long as

138
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:54,159
we don't know that there is something
that might make us happier, laho akaba.

139
00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:58,320
Why take the risk? Be happy? Be content? So Chaipan decided

140
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:03,000
the same thing. And what he
did is he said, you see these

141
00:12:03,039 --> 00:12:07,039
people who are with Adam alais Salam, and now that he's passed away Sheath

142
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:11,919
Alai is Adam, he may recognize
me because he knows Sheilan. He decided

143
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,799
to let me come in the form
of a man, and I will go

144
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:20,440
to those who are with Sheath,
and I will pretend as though I'm a

145
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,039
defector from this side. Sorry,
I will go to those who are with

146
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,799
Kabil, those who are with Kine. I will go to that side and

147
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:33,240
pretend like I've defected from Sheath.
Now there was a distinct, distinct sign.

148
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:37,559
You could see very clearly. The
men from Kabin's side were not very

149
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,960
good looking. We heard about that, and the women were very good looking.

150
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,879
And they had gone one side.
When it comes to where Sheath alais

151
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,360
Alam and the rest of them were, the men were very good looking and

152
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,519
the women were not that good looking. According to narrations, I'm not speaking

153
00:12:54,559 --> 00:13:00,960
obviously from my own pocket here.
So Alas subhanah Allah kept it such that

154
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:05,759
Chaifan went to that side in the
form of a handsome man. And when

155
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,799
he went there, he asked for
a job. Look, I need employment.

156
00:13:07,919 --> 00:13:13,200
I need to be employed here.
So what happened? They looked at

157
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,960
him, they decided, yes,
good man, come, let's employ you.

158
00:13:16,039 --> 00:13:18,320
At least we got one defector,
someone has defected. Let's give him

159
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:22,279
a job. So he got a
job, and as a man, he

160
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:28,559
worked amongst them, and he worked
very hard. And then he slowly started

161
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,840
What did he start doing. It's
important we listen to this. He slowly

162
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:39,039
started making sounds sound that people had
never heard before, because there were no

163
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,639
sounds that people had heard. That
was the beginning of time. And now

164
00:13:41,759 --> 00:13:46,679
he took he created a little drum
and he beat it, and everybody would

165
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,799
come, what's that sound? And
they would come around him and watch.

166
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,120
Then he got a bit of metal
and he started hitting it, and then

167
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:56,039
it created a sound, and they
came. And then he made a bugle

168
00:13:56,159 --> 00:13:58,960
and he started blowing into it and
it created a sound, and they came

169
00:14:00,159 --> 00:14:03,000
and they were excited. Wow,
these people are intelligent. They have advanced

170
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,720
much more than us. And so
they were so happy, and they got

171
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:13,720
so engrossed in it that they slowly
started forgetting the commands of a loss of

172
00:14:13,759 --> 00:14:18,200
Hannah to Anah. They slowly started
forgetting the commands of a loss of Hannah

173
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,480
to Ala. Yet on the other
hand, sheath Alai Salam kept on reminding

174
00:14:22,559 --> 00:14:26,159
his people. He kept on speaking
with his people, and he kept on

175
00:14:26,279 --> 00:14:30,399
telling his people what was right and
what was wrong and so on. And

176
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:33,960
on this hand, we find that
Chaipan is teaching them how to do evil,

177
00:14:33,039 --> 00:14:37,200
how to create evil. And after
some time they began to follow him.

178
00:14:37,559 --> 00:14:43,000
And when they began to follow him, it created a disaster for them.

179
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:50,519
This is how they introduced the musical
instruments into existence. This is how

180
00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:56,720
they introduced the musical instruments into existence. And through that he would control them.

181
00:14:56,919 --> 00:15:01,039
They literally set aside a day,
an evening, a Saturday evening,

182
00:15:01,639 --> 00:15:07,919
and amazingly, to this day it
lasts. To this day it lasts.

183
00:15:07,919 --> 00:15:11,679
They set aside that evening where he
would create these sounds. Everybody would come

184
00:15:11,759 --> 00:15:18,759
around and everybody would listen to him, and everybody would literally party, party.

185
00:15:18,799 --> 00:15:22,960
They would party until there came a
time when some of the youth from

186
00:15:22,039 --> 00:15:26,639
shith adihi sala to a Salam were
visited by Chaipan. And what did he

187
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:31,000
do to them? Something interesting?
He went to them, and he created

188
00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:35,840
a doubt in their minds. He
made them ask a question. He made

189
00:15:35,919 --> 00:15:39,840
them question the law of a loss
of hannah hoatalah. Why is it that

190
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,799
we are not allowed to mix with
these cousins of ours, with these relatives

191
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:48,480
of ours? What is the law
all about? What is the reasoning?

192
00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:52,519
What is so bad about them?
Look at this question. Let's put it

193
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,919
into our lives sometimes when we are
taught not to have certain company, not

194
00:15:56,080 --> 00:16:00,519
to have certain friends, not to
move in a certain direction. What is

195
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,120
it that is so bad about these
people that we should not be mixing with

196
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:10,639
them? So when they started asking
this question, it was answered for them

197
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:15,159
that look, Carbile had engaged in
a crime right at the beginning. He

198
00:16:15,679 --> 00:16:18,120
engaged in a sin at the very
beginning, and this is what he did.

199
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,639
He engaged in murder, and his
characteristics were different and so on.

200
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,399
And for this reason, they were
all on one side, and we are

201
00:16:26,559 --> 00:16:30,039
ordered not to mix with them.
These youth were dissatisfied with the answer,

202
00:16:30,159 --> 00:16:33,320
Nah, doesn't sound too good to
us. We're not happy with it.

203
00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:37,600
When they were not happy with it, some of them decided, let's just

204
00:16:37,679 --> 00:16:41,720
have a peep at what's happening,
because we've heard that here things are going

205
00:16:41,799 --> 00:16:47,000
on. These people are progressing.
Let's go and see. So they came

206
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:52,279
down from the mountains and they went
and from a distance they were watching,

207
00:16:52,799 --> 00:16:56,879
and they had seen and it pulled
them. Imagine, they did not intend

208
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,639
to engage in evil, but when
they saw everybody is partying, and what

209
00:17:00,799 --> 00:17:06,319
did they see? They saw very
good looking females. They saw very good

210
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:11,039
looking females, and so they went
closer. And when they went closer,

211
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,759
they were seen. Sobhananda, they
were seen, and they were good looking

212
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,119
men. So the women began to
engage in what is known as tabar ruje

213
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:26,359
tabar rouj meaning to start displaying their
beauty and to start dressing up in order

214
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,759
to attract This was the first time
Chapan taught them this. Now, if

215
00:17:30,799 --> 00:17:33,799
you take a look at the tefsi
of the Koran, you will find in

216
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,200
Suratu Ahzab there is a verse where
Alas Subhannah Hawatala is addressing the wives of

217
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:42,720
the prophets. Salalahu Alahi was seldom
as well as the believing women who would

218
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:49,839
take a lesson from them. Alas
is walk on a febuti kunawala tabarajen at

219
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:59,920
aabaru jeljaiila, remain indoors as far
as possible, and do not adorn yourself

220
00:18:00,519 --> 00:18:03,720
in a wrong manner, in a
wrong manner meaning for those who are not

221
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:11,400
meant to be seeing you in the
way that those of the first ignorance engaged

222
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:17,519
in. So Abdullah heevna Abbas rody
Allah, who is a great mofasit He

223
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:25,960
says this is referring to the women
of Kabil's side who used to beautify themselves

224
00:18:26,319 --> 00:18:29,920
in order to be made attracted to
these males, And this is where the

225
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:37,000
story comes up. Al jahili a
tunula mentioned in this stef Sir mentioned by

226
00:18:37,079 --> 00:18:41,759
ibn abbas rodya Allahu Anhu. His
view is that this is what it was,

227
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,160
and we are just using that today
in order to put forward what happened.

228
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:53,039
So when that happened, these young
men they came in and they enjoyed

229
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,440
themselves. They had music, they
had women, they had so much.

230
00:18:56,519 --> 00:19:00,759
They were partying, they were enjoying, and they went away. See it's

231
00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:04,440
typical what happens nowadays. You have
the weekend, people go and after that

232
00:19:04,519 --> 00:19:07,279
they come back home at three in
the morning. You know, we use

233
00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:11,240
the word babbalas I don't know what
is used by the by the people here,

234
00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:14,319
which means they're half drunk. You
know, they don't even know whether

235
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,920
they're coming or going. Laho akaba. So as the men came back,

236
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,519
they told the other youngsters, hey, you don't know what you're missing out

237
00:19:22,599 --> 00:19:26,720
on. You see there they've got
different sounds and these sounds are amazing.

238
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:32,720
Now, look, Chaithan uses sound
to control man. Well, Lottie,

239
00:19:33,039 --> 00:19:34,559
if you take a look at what
a beat is, what is a bait?

240
00:19:36,079 --> 00:19:38,400
You start tapping your fingers. What
happened? Who's controlling this finger of

241
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:44,279
yours? Chaithan? What happens to
your your toe starts flicking, what happens

242
00:19:44,319 --> 00:19:48,440
to your head starts moving, what
happens to your waist starts shaking? Laho

243
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,319
akaba, Who's controlling it? Let's
be honest. It started at that time.

244
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,359
It started at that time, and
it is controlled. The one who

245
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:03,559
can make you tap your finger on
your steering wheel can easily make you murder.

246
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,640
The one who can make you tap
your finger on a steering wheel can

247
00:20:07,759 --> 00:20:12,359
easily lead you to adultery. He
will create it in your heart and beautify

248
00:20:12,519 --> 00:20:15,839
it. He can do one thing
and you continue, he will do another

249
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:25,240
malasu hanahowat ala safeguardess. So thereafter
these people came back with a bigger group,

250
00:20:26,599 --> 00:20:29,799
and they came back with a larger
group, and the group was growing.

251
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,680
And every time that party happened,
there were people from this side who

252
00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:36,839
used to quietly go to that side
and they used to engage in sin.

253
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,799
The first sins music was invented,
and what else was invented created was adultree

254
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,759
maelasu hannahowat ala safegardness. This is
the history of it made mentioned by some

255
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,519
of the historians, and it is
very very important, very very interesting for

256
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,640
us to note this because Alas of
hannahuata Alah has also told us in the

257
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,720
Qoran about al Jahiliyah Tunula. Although
they're on details, the details we get

258
00:21:00,759 --> 00:21:04,279
from some of them of a Syrian
and some of the historians. So this

259
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:10,559
is how it started, and this
is why it's important for us today to

260
00:21:10,759 --> 00:21:18,039
understand that not everything that glitters is
gold. Not everything that glitters is good

261
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:22,079
for us, Not everything that appears
to be so attractive is actually good for

262
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,640
us, because if we go in
that direction, we could be falling straight

263
00:21:26,839 --> 00:21:34,359
into the trap of chaipan. So
Alas subhanahuata Alah. After making mention of

264
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:41,480
this, he obviously tells us that
those who have engaged in immorality and those

265
00:21:41,559 --> 00:21:45,319
who have engaged in sin, those
who have engaged in what will displease Alla

266
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:52,559
Subranaha to Allah if they immediately remember
Allah subhanahua to Allah. They remember that

267
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,039
they have to go back to Alla
Subhanaha to Allah, and they have that

268
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:02,000
consciousness of Allah, and that remembrance
makes them ask Alas forgiveness. Alas is

269
00:22:02,039 --> 00:22:04,960
not only do we forgive them,
but if they remain stepfast thereafter, we

270
00:22:06,039 --> 00:22:22,599
will grant them Jana. Listen to
the verse well, ladina shumakai wam in

271
00:22:22,839 --> 00:22:37,759
a lah, what a musim Adam
paul ullah Inka Jasah whom bea him qua

272
00:22:37,839 --> 00:22:53,039
janjall and dinaju Lamii alas is.
Those who have engaged in immorality, or

273
00:22:53,279 --> 00:22:57,480
they have oppressed against themselves. They
have oppressed themselves in one way or another,

274
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:03,759
when they remember a lot subhannahwat Alah
and turn to him in repentance,

275
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,960
because there is none who can forgive
besides a loassub hanahuata Alah. And they

276
00:23:08,039 --> 00:23:12,680
do not continue in their bad ways, but rather they turn their ways for

277
00:23:12,799 --> 00:23:15,119
the sake of a loss of Hannah. Howat Alah, a loss is for

278
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:22,319
those there is forgiveness from us,
and we have prepared for them heaven paradise

279
00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:27,200
gardens, wherein they will dwell forever
and ever. And what a great place

280
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:32,880
for those who would like to do
good deeds. And this verse has hope

281
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:38,880
for every single human being anyone.
Never ever feel that you have gone beyond

282
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:45,559
the limits. Never feel that you
are now beyond repair. There is always

283
00:23:45,759 --> 00:23:48,759
room to turn to alass of Hannah. Howat Alah. He gives us a

284
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,680
chance, he gives us another chance, He gives us ten chances and many

285
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,839
more chances, but we don't know
the exact number of chances. Whilst these

286
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,480
chances come through to us, grab
hold of one of them and turn to

287
00:24:00,519 --> 00:24:03,279
a loss of hanahatada. I normally
tell people the month of Ramadan is ideal?

288
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:08,160
Ideal? What is harming us?
What is so difficult for us to

289
00:24:08,279 --> 00:24:12,640
come to the meschiet to stand for
an hour? If we had it our

290
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,960
way, we could probably stand out
at the door for another hour if we

291
00:24:17,039 --> 00:24:21,559
had the right people to sit and
chit chat allah project us. Sometimes as

292
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,359
people are coming in, they're sinning, and as they go out, they're

293
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,759
sinning, whether it is with their
phones or with their mouths, bad mouths

294
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,880
meaning bad words that come out of
the mouth. Sometimes we walk out of

295
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,519
the house of a loss of hanahat
alah. First thing we do, with

296
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,359
all due respect to those who do
do this, but what is wrong is

297
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,200
wrong, even if the whole world
engages in it. First thing we do,

298
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,200
we still not even out of the
door. The cigarettes are out and

299
00:24:45,279 --> 00:24:48,400
the light is out. Next thing
we flicking it and it's at our mouths.

300
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,440
But where were we just now?
Moments before that we were speaking,

301
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:56,240
communicating with a loss of hanahata alah, can't we at least for the month

302
00:24:56,279 --> 00:25:00,720
of Ramadan show some respect and move
a little bit further away from the mastiff.

303
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,799
Not to say we are encouraging it, but at least if we show

304
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,119
that amount of respect, there is
a chance that a loss subhanah howat alah

305
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:14,279
will indeed create a day when we
will give it up. You know when

306
00:25:14,319 --> 00:25:18,359
a doctor tells you, lahu akaba, And I've given this example before,

307
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:23,279
when a man's heart suddenly fails and
he gets a pain and he drops.

308
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,640
Then they pick him up and take
him to the hospital and the doctor says,

309
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,000
you know what, you got to
give up smoking? What? Llah?

310
00:25:30,079 --> 00:25:32,440
He nine times out of ten,
if not ten, he gives it

311
00:25:32,559 --> 00:25:37,200
up? Why one doctor told him
that? One doctor? But for a

312
00:25:37,319 --> 00:25:41,440
lass sup Hannah howat alah. How
many of us are ready today to say

313
00:25:41,519 --> 00:25:47,079
this habit is out there? We
are? How many laho akaba? Are

314
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,799
we waiting for a little heart attack
before we can give up a bad habit?

315
00:25:51,319 --> 00:25:53,920
Are we waiting for an angina attack
before we can throw something out of

316
00:25:55,039 --> 00:25:59,119
the window when alas subhanah howat alice
is no, don't wait for that.

317
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,599
I give you good health. But
whilst you're in good health, leave that

318
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,039
lahu akaba. This is why we
say some people turn away from Allah.

319
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,720
They don't want to worship Allah,
neither in Ramadan nor outside the month of

320
00:26:10,799 --> 00:26:14,240
Ramadan. So what Allah does for
them, He gives them a favor.

321
00:26:14,559 --> 00:26:18,960
What is that favor? He makes
them sick and ill to the degree that

322
00:26:18,079 --> 00:26:22,319
the doctors cannot help them. So
what do they have to do? They

323
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,319
are forced forced literally to say yeah
Allah for the first time in their lives,

324
00:26:26,559 --> 00:26:32,039
raising their hands and coming Salah early
marcia Allah. That is cheap,

325
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,759
a lie, cheap meaning we are
still fortunate that we haven't died before we

326
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,960
raised our hands to Allah. But
the question I have should we wait for

327
00:26:41,079 --> 00:26:45,680
something to happen to us before we're
going to raise our hands? This is

328
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:51,200
why Allah says, be thankful,
be grateful, recognize the devil and know

329
00:26:51,559 --> 00:26:53,759
about him before he even comes in
your direction, so that you will know

330
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:59,799
how he tries and distract you.
Ask those who've committed adultery all their lives,

331
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,799
what have they achieved by it?
Ask those who have sinned all their

332
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,119
lives gambling? What have they achieved
by it? Ask those who have sinned

333
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:12,160
all their lives by stealing, cheating, conning, deceiving, by engaging in

334
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,759
all sorts of other sins, whether
it is drugs and alcohol. What did

335
00:27:15,799 --> 00:27:22,680
they achieve by it? They achieved
what momentary joy? Is that what they

336
00:27:22,759 --> 00:27:26,240
got? And now, if Allah
has mercy on you, he will grant

337
00:27:26,319 --> 00:27:29,799
you a chance to say ya Allah, forgive me. Never again will I

338
00:27:29,839 --> 00:27:33,799
do this? But if not,
Allah protect us all we fall into the

339
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,839
clutches of the devil. What happens
on our deathbeds when it's too late.

340
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,240
We will then be thinking that,
yeah, Allah, I should have given

341
00:27:41,319 --> 00:27:45,559
up this habit and that habit.
You know what the kurances those type of

342
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,440
people whom they only want to think
about it on their deathbeds Allah says,

343
00:27:48,480 --> 00:28:00,839
that's too late. Had In,
I had a call on bulging l Ali

344
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:08,920
Ansari have female talk too. Kala
Alas is. When death comes to such

345
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,960
a person, he will say,
oh, Allah send me back. I

346
00:28:12,079 --> 00:28:15,440
want to do good. Now I
know, I'd like to do all the

347
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,599
good. Now we know. Alas
says, no, you will not do

348
00:28:18,799 --> 00:28:22,880
good. It's just a statement coming
out of your mouth. You were given

349
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,599
the chances, you were given the
reminders, the messengers came one after the

350
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,680
other. Do you know the mercy
of Allah is such that he did not

351
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,599
only let us know the history of
Mohammad Salah alaihi was Alam, but for

352
00:28:34,839 --> 00:28:40,839
us there is a reason why he
has told us the stories of so many

353
00:28:41,039 --> 00:28:44,440
prophets in the Qur'an and in the
Sunna of Mohammed Salah alai he was Hem.

354
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,079
Take a look at the people of
Shai for example, they used to

355
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,319
have wrong business dealings in this uma. There are people who do that.

356
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,920
Take a look at the people of
Luke alai Salam, they used to have

357
00:28:57,319 --> 00:29:02,160
homosexuality in them this uma, there
are people who do do that. So

358
00:29:02,839 --> 00:29:07,119
at that time the nations used to
engage in one or two major items.

359
00:29:07,759 --> 00:29:11,680
But with us there are pockets of
people who have engaged in almost all those

360
00:29:11,799 --> 00:29:15,759
things that are made mention of in
the past. And this is one of

361
00:29:15,799 --> 00:29:19,279
the reasons why all those stories have
come and they have come to us.

362
00:29:21,279 --> 00:29:23,440
Remember, and this is an example
again that some of the scholars have given.

363
00:29:23,559 --> 00:29:34,480
They say, if fuel with a
match created a huge inferno a thousand

364
00:29:34,559 --> 00:29:40,640
years ago, what makes you think
that fuel with a match today is not

365
00:29:40,759 --> 00:29:45,359
going to create the same inferno.
That is foolishness, since we know people

366
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:49,240
have been giving you warnings. There's
a warning, petrol warning, inflammable warning,

367
00:29:49,599 --> 00:29:52,319
no lights, no matches here And
if you look at it and you

368
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,039
say no, this was a thousand
years ago. Let me try it again

369
00:29:56,079 --> 00:30:00,119
and see what happens. That's what
we're doing. We hear what happened to

370
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,240
the people of Luke, we still
want to engage. We hear what happened

371
00:30:03,279 --> 00:30:06,000
to the people of Shai. We
still want to engage. We hear what

372
00:30:06,119 --> 00:30:08,759
happened to the people of whod.
We still want to engage. Why because

373
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:14,400
we do not want to take heed
of that sign that we see highly inflammable.

374
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,640
Make sure you don't have this here. Laho akabars of banahata Alah open

375
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,599
our doors. The reason why I
have paused, if you notice, to

376
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:26,440
give a few examples, is because
these type of examples have an effect and

377
00:30:26,559 --> 00:30:33,319
an impact on mankind. Alas subhanahwat
Alah says in the Kurana Wala kadabal in

378
00:30:33,799 --> 00:30:41,680
nasifikoranim kunli metal. In this Quran, we have given men so many different

379
00:30:41,759 --> 00:30:45,839
types of examples so that they think. But alas is for Abba akar nazi

380
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,359
i la Kufuran. So many people
have just refused. They have rejected,

381
00:30:49,519 --> 00:30:53,000
they don't want to believe. My
beloved brothers and sisters, We have a

382
00:30:53,039 --> 00:30:57,759
beautiful month of Ramaban. As we
say, an effort is required to come

383
00:30:57,799 --> 00:31:03,640
closer to Allah lah he wllah Hei. If we come closer to Allah sub

384
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,400
Hannah howatalah, we will see miracles
in our life. We dedicate our days

385
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:12,279
for Salah without missing one Salah.
Come what may see what happens in a

386
00:31:12,359 --> 00:31:18,000
month two months, start seeing your
doors opening. Miracles will happen wal Lahi

387
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,160
those around us have already seen them, and I'm sure we are tasting them.

388
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,880
Allah grants you contentment of the heart. But when there is a person

389
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:33,160
who wants to follow the sins of
the time, Walahi, they will continue

390
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:37,480
becoming more and more sophisticated. We
will waste our days and our times behind

391
00:31:37,839 --> 00:31:41,240
this technology if we are using it
wrongly, and we will waste our time

392
00:31:41,359 --> 00:31:45,480
behind sin and drugs. Wahi.
If we would like to leave it,

393
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:51,079
we can leave it now by the
will of Allas sub hannahwat Alah. And

394
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,119
if this reminder in the month of
Ramadan, when our hearts are meant to

395
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,559
be softened is not enough for us? Then what are we waiting for?

396
00:31:57,599 --> 00:32:02,240
What is there there is going to
come to us? In the past I

397
00:32:02,319 --> 00:32:08,440
have made mention of a point,
and the point is how many reminders would

398
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:13,599
I like before I will turn?
Write it down? I need another two

399
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:17,039
hundred reminders. Then I will turn
and then start jotting down how many reminders

400
00:32:17,079 --> 00:32:21,079
you've had. They will come a
day when you'll strike the two hundred to

401
00:32:21,119 --> 00:32:23,519
one. Then will you turn?
Laho Akaba? If you're going to turn

402
00:32:23,559 --> 00:32:27,680
at two hundred, you'd rather turn
now so that you can gain all that

403
00:32:27,839 --> 00:32:30,960
time, because who knows? We
might die at one fifty, and then

404
00:32:31,039 --> 00:32:35,400
what will happen? We can't go
to a loss of Hannah howatala and say

405
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,039
no. In my mind, I
made a promise that I'm going to wait

406
00:32:37,079 --> 00:32:40,240
for another fifty, and you didn't
give me the life to see the other

407
00:32:40,279 --> 00:32:45,559
fifty too late? Alases, we
gave you enough, enough times, enough

408
00:32:45,599 --> 00:32:49,759
warnings. Like alasses in the Koran, some people, no matter who tells

409
00:32:49,799 --> 00:32:52,079
them, no matter who reminds them, they don't want to be reminded.

410
00:32:52,119 --> 00:32:55,680
They don't want to take heed.
So alas is, you can bring whoever

411
00:32:55,799 --> 00:32:59,839
you want to talk to them,
they won't listen, so much so that

412
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,680
Alasses, even if the angels were
to be brought in front of them to

413
00:33:02,759 --> 00:33:07,039
talk to them live, they wouldn't
turn. And over and above that,

414
00:33:07,119 --> 00:33:09,559
Alas says, are they waiting for
Allah to come down now to talk to

415
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:15,079
them, to say, hey,
you better turn love welcome. These are

416
00:33:15,119 --> 00:33:19,240
the verses of the Koran. Malelasu
hanah houa Alah open our doors malasu hanah,

417
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,839
how to Alah grant us all goodness
in Charlotte. Tomorrow we will meet

418
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,839
again, going into the next prophet
of Allas Subannah howat Alah. Until then

419
00:33:25,000 --> 00:34:01,440
Oslaa who is seldom Abarakala and Mohammad
subannahla behamd the Subpana Alahama behamdi Urukana to fu
