4:40

allahar from Australia right and salams from Miss Miss swaga missa Mr SOA all right hassim says after off for a long time true or maybe not I have had a few sessions in between maybe you've uh we've all been busy and I've just seen your message here I'm going through hard times bro Allah bless

5:19

you you know these times that we go through that appear to us difficult in heart they are defining us you know it's a a diamond being with Precision carved from carbon it's gold being purified it's it's all how we see things and I would say you know see it as don't say to yourself that in it I'm going through say to yourself you know I'm going through a character developing a

5:57

defining stage in my life okay this is interesting smile against all the odd smile you know well somebody could say well you know what is there to smile about you know well even if it's going down let's say the ship is thinking let's just smile then I mean you know it's going down anyway you know you this is a perspective as well isn't it yeah you know why not you know somebody said why well why

6:33

not see and in that all of a sudden the Divine Mysteries unveil themselves and as you fall Allah will catch you sometimes you know we're pushed we're we're at the brink of Despair and then we just fall has ah ever let you down before today you know before this time you know he's caught you every time and you didn't come this far to

7:11

just come this far so hang in there and this is for everyone and I would like to you know with that uh just bring that into the verses I want to share with us today because um so just Allah bless you sah and we'll we'll pick up from there you know because we right sorry I was just reading a [Laughter]

7:58

com but this is this is what I'm saying that sometimes in hindsight it is the adventure that makes it and the adventures is is is hard on enough sometimes but we're so immersed in the adventure you know a if you were to bring yourself down to a state that is that is meaningful it's often not

8:36

happy although happiness is is something we undoubtedly desire and that is to say Joy but happy I mean it's wonderful we all want to be happy but Happy is just you know not much is accomplished in just happiness happiness is it in itself is is a reward you know we we absorb

9:13

it Allah but the times in which and the states in which you are actually achieving and thriving you'll find yourself if you know if you to take a picture of yourself or a recording you look somewhat tense almost you know you'll appear immersed in something even if it's in

9:48

reflection or as you stare into the Horizon that stare that glance it appears tense but it's not a negative tension it's actually a constructive one and this is what I want today to us for us to understand that many things that if you find yourself in anxiety is it anxiety or is it all you see many feelings deep

10:28

within they can be interpreted identically like you see what when a person is frightened let's see there is a or or let's say anxious nervous frightened could have a slightly different uh effect but let's say a person person is anxious nervous what is going on you palms are sweaty sweating palpitations you know they they've

11:06

got you know something going on in a gut feeling it's something in the gut you know turmoil now what is the exact same feeling of excitement it is identical to that heart bracing fast sweaty Palms blood pumping so you may be sweating butterflies in the stomach the interior is the same in one situation a

11:44

person is excited in another they are anxious nervous what's making the difference is the meaning that they are giving to it how they are seeing something and this brings us to a verse which we where we left off last last week that uh we did discuss it but in more detail Surah zarat verse 56

12:28

that that I did not create gin and insan except that they worship me and we discussed this previously that why and to elaborate upon this to understand our story why did Allah create to us why did he create anything you know the the hide the the

13:08

hiigaran why is there something as opposed to nothing why did Allah create and that stems from our story because somebody might be going through a hard time somebody might be going through depression somebody might be going through a nervous breakdown through anxiety through and then why has Allah created me like this why has Allah even created me why am I here why is anything here so this Taps into all of that so this verse we have

13:50

here that Allah says did not create them and some of the people the kufar of qur would worship Jin whatever they understood that to mean you know some entities that Allah says everything you know these things you worship and insan I did not create except and here as a consequence they worship me

14:34

I did not create them so they worship so they provide for me for Allah I don't ask them for risk for sustenance or provision Allah is the one who through his infinite abundance provides indefinitely nobody can do that your relationship like that is with nobody but

15:13

Allah no matter how or what you're doing Allah has still written risk for you and with that in mind you can see here this was just to um to explain let me just bring this further that you've got um that's from thean as you can see it uh if we read down to where it says it's the fourth line

15:53

down this is not this is not for causation this is as a consequence you see this is as an example there's many that have said this um it says as you can go to the verse on the third line had Allah not create how would they have come to know Allah's being

16:34

his Wu and this is a an important word we're going to come back to that was to show uh this way of looking at this verse and here are some examples in the Quran where you see as a consequence they worship me because there's many people who see created us so we worship Him He created us to worship him that could be that that's a lower order understanding of this verse a higher order

17:12

understanding it's not he created us to worship Him He created us to know him and through us to know himself he's he is the Eyes by which he sees creation through us through our Consciousness Allah Witnesses his creation as in the Hadith and we'll come to that in a moment where Allah is saying this I was the Eyes by which they

17:50

see and witness the Splendor and the Majesty of Allah's Glory as a consequence we worship Allah consequently out of gratitude we worship Allah and this in Arabic can come for many reasons amongst them as a cause so I say you did this to do that you know for example I studied to become a doctor you did something as a cause or one of the other reasons as a consequence

18:29

and here's some examples in the Quran where it's speaking as a consequence so you see Surah now here the family or the people of pharaoh took Moses so he may be an enemy for them this is as a baby when they took him Baby Moses this is they didn't take him it says in the Quran like he took him so he could please he could be a sense of joy for himself and his his wife but here Allah is saying

19:08

they took him so that he could be an an enemy for them an opposition for them as a consequence he was an opposition for them this lamb is here's another one is to do with f again Ya Allah you gave and his people wealth and Splendor in this

19:37

world yeah Allah it's not so you didn't give them so they could misguide people you gave them and as a consequence they misguide people this is [Music] L the lamb as a consequence okay here's another one on about the day of judgment verse

20:10

25 that people did sins in this world so they may carry their burden on the day of judgment obviously they didn't do that so they could carry it they did this as a consequence they carry their burden you got Surah vers six so people who call now you've got this speaking about or one could say about thean or if you want to take it generically somebody who calls his

20:46

kind so that they may be people of the Hellfire now obviously he doesn't call them to be people of the Hellfire but as a consequence they are people of the Hellfire and a very famous verse as well and this is um inah and you can see uh me just this is Frozen Okay um okay

21:14

so and this is 116 again um and you can see there that right sorry it's not uh yeah do not say Do not describe with your tongues this is halal and this is Haram now one way is to see that oh uh in a lying way when your tongues what they describe

21:52

are lies falsehood that this is halal and this Isam so that you may be propagating a lie against God now here as you can see even the I mean you may not see even it says look the L is because it's not it's you're not doing it to but as a consequence you're lying against God now I'm going to bring this all back to this verse but here was um another interesting part of the same verse the T you've

22:31

got and I thought I'd just share this that all right so um this what's in red right at the top a Hadith if I person tried to flee from their risk it would chase them down to the corners of the earth

23:07

Allah look how Allah has written our Provisions that wherever you flee to Allah says my risk will chase you risk good thing provision so and there's a Hadith that um

23:39

so whoever had focused on the union with God the really is about our return to God it says Allah placed a richness in their heart and the world shall be opened up to these people even if it does not want to even if the world didn't rebell it would still be opened up to

24:19

this see whoever chases after something it seems to run from them and this was a quote by mahasi uh who said that he says to his that why do people then where where is this doubt and anxiety coming from and he says and even though Allah has taken it upon himself and guaranteed people's uh risk he said by but it is by two things that

24:57

one that they have lack knowing god they lack and they lack thinking well of Allah always that Allah always will catch them and he said Allah promised risk sustenance you know Providence Allah promised all of this but but he hid the timing in so that it may be a test for

25:35

people now so this is bringing back and I'll just so why did Allah create us and so we've been taking a look one way is it is to know him but what's the story behind that I want you to pause for a

26:07

moment I want you to understand that there is a Divine story of love a story of divine love God's love manifesting and you

26:34

you are a manifestation and an integral part of that story of this Divine love story this story of divine radical love what is it now I want to bring our attention to what often sites right throughout the and a very famous and I'll come to the discussion on its isad and stuff uh afterwards but this is

27:11

aith where Allah says and it does there is another and I was a hidden treasure but this versioni often the the top one the former cites it more often almost invariably right throughout that I was a treasure and this is in the passive sense not

27:38

known I was not known that I was a treasure in which that I was not known now now look at this word but I loved Allah but I loved and that I may be known that

28:13

my is observed my known knowingness my known is celebrated it's worshiped it is reflected I loved in Arabic is from from

28:42

love so I created Creation in this sometimes it says some says and I'm allowed them I enabled them to know me I made them come to know of

29:16

me and so they know me so they knew me this is the reason why creation exists it exists because Allah is a treasure and he W and he loved to be known and you and I know him so it begins with this loving there is this and by this loving this Divine love the result by the end of it is

29:55

being emerges a state of beingness so you and I we are all part of that you see we all never think of yourself in an insignificant way through you and by you the glory of God is manifest that we none of us are here Allah says

30:35

he did not create you none of us are here are insignificant you're not a statistic you're not just a number you it is through your senses through you a witnessing and the witness takes place you see and a verse in the Quran that is a bit similar to this Allah

31:10

says that with Allah are the the Treasures of the Unseen and that could include many things but ultimately the ultimate treasure is God himself above all these other Treasures of the so this verse has some echo of that hadithi and you can see here this isi once again citing this now we see I want to actually bring our attention to this Hadith because somebody could

31:50

say well okay I'm trying to grasp this but how does Allah observe this Hadith which is in it begins it's a very famous whosoever opposes a Wally of mine I have announced and declared war upon that person and then Allah

32:26

says a servant of mine a person of mine does not draw nearer to me except by that which I have mandated and obligated and told them to do as a duty and they do that and they draw so close and then it says and then my person continues to draw even nearer to me with things I haven't even mandated

33:00

but he is or she is celebrating this love this gratitude of mine they are feeding people they are seeing somebody sad they are helping them they're seeing somebody sick they are visiting them here doesn't just doesn't mean praying it means those actions which Allah has not mandated but yeah they are the true testimony of humanity that you see somebody helpless you help

33:37

them you see somebody upset you console them you see somebody poor hungry you feed them that they continue until until I love them Allah says I love that person who I mean if Allah loves us nothing else

34:05

matters look when I love them and then I loved them I was the ears by which he's heard who Allah is seeing Through Your

34:40

Eyes Allah and Allah does not say I became one could interpret it like that but the verse but the actual Hadith is saying I was already the Eyes by which they saw they just didn't realize it but I was always the Eyes by which they saw but now it's become a realization for them it's dawned on them into their Consciousness they they walk with God that Allah says I am the foot by which they

35:20

walk we just didn't know it Allah through us Witnesses his glory and it mentions here that look to the extent that if he whatever my person asks me I give him when it's if he seeks Refuge I protect him I always protect him even when we don't seek Refuge Allah protects

35:56

us there is nothing more turbulent Allah says more hesitant not that Allah Allah is describing this from his from his love not as Allah isn't affected by things like turbulence but he's a speaking about this from the angle of love that there is nothing that is more upsetting in that sense to Allah

36:33

to to do something that the person does his his person his believer they dislike it detest it like death that they detest dying and that's one thing Allah says and I hate to displease my person but the Hadith says that but there is no avoiding that you see but no avoiding

37:09

that because it is through that portal death is just a portal it is through that portal we reunite with Allah that without that we could not go to the stage so this is how we ought to be seeing ought to be viewing our relationship this whole story and notice in

37:45

thisi just to play on words the Divine command can once again I was just observing that thinking wow you know there's a lot of be be in the subtext

38:18

subconsciously which is a much more beautiful interpretation of that uh same Hadith and and this is a verse which I want to wrap this up with so when we think of why did Allah create anything why did he create us why am I in this anxiety you know I said in the beginning is excitement the same phenomenological experience as anxiousness as nervousness and it is you know it's palpitations something in the g a feeling in the G butterflies you know a

38:56

uh heart is pacing we've got a sweaty you know sweating Palms sweat all this which is exactly the same as excitement phenomenologically so when we're experiencing anxiety is it that or is it all what if it's because the inner R knows of a time it knows of a bond it has a

39:35

yearning when Allah said the soul knows it's said indeed and this that you know what if and is it that later on you will say Allah says or is it that you will in time to come say oh we you know not that we didn't know we got

40:09

distracted we got distracted so this is to me a very beautiful way of looking at not only our story but answering the question why why are we here it is because Allah wanted to be known he enabled us he drew himself nearer to us and thus we knew him he enabled us to know him he made us familiar with him you

40:49

see and then he knew us and he knew us knowing him so whenever we struggle whenever we think sometimes things are too burdensome they are too uh you know what what is going on what is Ya Allah why why have you done this I want us to bring our attention to Surah infar you know the

41:25

shattering infar are shattering the illusion the configuration CU that's what we're in we're in a configuration yeah insan an insan can be masculine and feminine by the

41:56

way you know what deluded you away from your benevolent your kind Lord either as in this de you know it derailed you from him or it you deluded away from him or deluded about him that Allah is taking us he's this accountant who's going to be counting this and that and we're going

42:35

to be he's it's all about trouble and telling off and he's like the parent who tells off the child and he's like you know says created you he structured

43:06

you and this can mean to straighten you look at look at the words or it can mean he did Justice to you you know in and in what form he wanted he gave you and what was that form his own form we covered that last week Allah created Adam in his form not an anthropomorphic form but in the form to mirror and to be an expression of the

43:45

Divine names on Earth that's the form and if you think about it people look just think about this I was thinking about this you know this configuration that we're in it's like a game like a video game like a virtual reality but to us it's actual but it's a to Allah there is only one true beingness and that is Allah's being we are a virtual being we we we think we exist and we do exist as far as we're concerned but really

44:26

how would you is it is like it is both existent and non-existent at the same time it is like the reflection in the mirror it does exist but at the same time does it because you know that here there's a reflection of me but at the same time you know but that's not me I'm here so does the reflection exist or does it not exist it simultaneously exists and does not exist and such is our reality because ultimately it is Allah and his

45:04

love to be known which we are an expression of that then so I was thinking about this you know this configuration now you think of this like a game and you think well okay how do these players exit the game and well okay well they exited you know as they die we bury them into the ground and their bodies just disintegrate and they've exited the game so you think well okay how can players be introduced to the game a new

45:42

player how can we bring not only a player but a whole identity a whole personality a a being a new where do they come from should they just come out of a vortex should they just come out of a so just just behold the configuration so it's configured that okay they will

46:14

emerge from within the people from within the womb of the woman that they will just emerge from here so they'll be created from almost nothing I mean when I say nothing I mean obviously sperm and an egg but nothing that resembles a actual being and Tiny you know minuscule in reality or nothing like some that and they will then become this entity that enters this configuration

46:52

then and what they will do is they will name it and as they name it they it begins to grow with this there is an ie that I am ironically the first the Commandment to Moses that I am that I am that this I am emerges at that young stage then after taking a name taking this and then they become they they pick up the language Fields the you know the the symbolic

47:30

order register the um imaginary they they develop and then they become a participatory player within this configuration and then they live on until they then pass and pass through this configuration what a I I I was thinking like could there be any more epic entry and point it's like who would have thought of that imagine you're thinking of a configuration you're thinking how do you bring in characters just spring into existence or

48:08

being as well well they will come from within the other characters and I know that because we're so familiar with the concept sometimes we don't ponder over it so with that folks I I hope hope that's of some help I am going to um share my the link and if anybody wants to jump on they can do and um we can have a bit of a discussion maybe uh just copy this link maybe

48:47

about yeah 20 minutes half hour and then wrap this up I wanted to also say that with regards to this Hadith um with regards to this Hadith um that now this Hadith um right I was just saying that the stream seem to be um H I don't know why because it's you know it's it's not WIFI so in any case [Music]

49:25

this now generally speaking this Hadith is not valid and people say it's fabricated maybe exceptionally weak or fabricated generally it has been brought by several people ABD many people have cited this Hadith now this Hadith has been viewed by different Scholars using different paradigms so the M their approach has been that because there is no sun to this Hadith even though it's been circulating for Generations it's it's right from the

50:04

very traditional of Islam that it's been coming down but because there's no sun therefore it is fabricated according to the according to other Scholars that this Hadith is Andi and the thing I love about II another amazing fact that you know fun fact is when he's discussing this Hadith in his F hat he says that this Hadith he says he he says himself and by the way he's contrary to what some people may think he's actually very clued up with Hadith studies he

50:44

cites his own son to sari he often when he's discussing chains he'll discuss them he quotes his uh Mas he quotes a certain chain going from the the students ofak through abak the great of he discusses when he cites Hadi he says them and he says the sun to them so he's not unaware of these things he says that this Hadith he says it

51:17

is okay he says but that it is not through the but he says it is something that we have come to learn its validity through our our imaginal learning so through Kash seeing into the imaginal world now you may say well you know I don't accept that because the imaginal world that is

51:54

the world of you know the unconscious mind that is the world of dreams that is the world of the remaining n so the Hadith in sahkari the prophet said in a Hadith that prophethood would stop except so prophethood in the Hadith the prophet said that a one category of prophethood will continue after me this isn't to say people that come like you know madani and these people not at all but Prophet said dreams he said that dreams will remain

52:35

and open will be the realm of also prophethood but it is not the prophit hood that you're thinking like Messengers and what it means is in Arabic the word t today we don't use these words as much and I know this is where people misunderstood as well and we'll discuss that another time and I know R and a few people have you know I you know they've really missed the mark unfortunately with people likei now this Hadith which is inkari and many of that dreams are 146th part

53:11

of prophethood and that dreams this form of prophethood will remain till the day of judgment that and it's not the kind of prophethood to become a prophet but what it means is that there is a realm in which you do have this connection to what is being revealed to you in a way but it's not clear so people sometimes they see things in dreams sometimes they will see the future they will have premonitions I mean there's a lot of scientific studies on this SOI says that looking into that realm we have come to learn that this Hadith

53:50

is so that isi doing full disclosure now somebody may say well I don't accept that and that's fine that they um they may not accept the imaginal realm as a mode of learning but there are four modes of learning that generally we do go by and and this is the same thing even in in the World At Large and this is you've got Studies by people like Dr Ian Millis who also uh cites these four that you've got the rational the scientific intuition and

54:30

Imagination and Imagination II will speak about that another time he is not just meaning by imagination the because in his you got you got you have to remember this is 800 years ago a lot of English terminology and this other was not there psychology is only 100 you know plus you know 120 whatever years old maybe 140 at best it's not older than that when he's speaking about his is encompassing all of this the unconscious mind the collective unconscious the the

55:08

registers the symbolic register the imaginary register the you know in leanian Psychology he's speaking about all of this he's not just speaking about a Fantasmic uh imagination you know like oh I picture this cup is pink he's not speaking about that he calls that Al you know that's a detached him that's sure but and we'll speak about this another time in more depth but learning there's two modes we can simplify them even more if if you like that you do have the rational and you have the

55:46

imaginal and the imaginal is to do with that world the Barak the kind of world in between the unconscious mind the collective uncons ious the you know where we how we dream these kind of things intuition all of this is locked into that so II is just being very open and saying well this is my epistemology now you can accept it you don't need to accept it um personally I do accept it I feel that that's fine he's being transparent and he's telling you this is my mode a pomological mode here so you can accept it and or you can

56:24

say well I don't and well one could say well you know that we don't accept that because that's too you know wishy-washy or it's not enough and that's fine you know that's the interpretation I would say that nothing you know even when you take Hadith studies and the study of isnad you'll find that you run into there is no cement to be found there either and I've discussed this previously even when you look at a and absolutely and you go to the first second layers of it and I ask you well where did we get the to for this you know who

57:04

authenticate so let's say when you say somebody like um there could be great there could be people in the first let's say not the sahaba the how do you know that the were reliable and the ones that come just after them and you could say well they were in the books of reel everybody knows it but the books of reel were not written until maybe 100 150 years after them so the people that you find doing of them so let's say im Ahmed or AB or you're gonna find IM bukari saying such and such person in

57:41

hisab is trustworthy how has he who has told him that that person is trustworthy now he will Source he will site people that are his teachers so for example he might might say oh you know abui said this now or he might site someone saying that but where did they hear it from because they didn't meet that person either in fact their parents didn't even meet that person maybe their grandparents lived in the time of that person so who where is is the data

58:19

coming from it's there are blind spots you see it's coming from blind spots so now there's there's a certain amount you know this is the uh incompleteness theorem you know how you have girdle's incompleteness theorem within Hadith studies you have the incompleteness theorem and this is it I mean that's how I would present it it has an incompleteness a guran um equation to it that you can't it gets to a point where it breaks down so the the certainty you were looking

58:57

for is not found in that either I mean it's good enough I'm not to I'm not trying to knock it in saying no Hadi sound I'm not saying that at all but what I'm trying to say is each to their own these are not mutually exclusive people who accept the esoteric uh this way of is uh of learning within Islam they accept sahad as well of course they do I mean it's not but not everybody that just accepts the way of the M excepts the way of the mystical and that is I suppose to us you know we have to choose that other than that I thought i'

59:35

would ex you know I hope that's of some help uh Allah bless you all let me share the link and I'll bring on some people have a quick chat there's been a let me see if there's a super chat um somebody said string theorem so no so so theorem is usually used when something is absolute and Theory where it isn't uh it's still a theory so string theory is more a theory um but yeah scientists are moving away from it I I don't know it's it's a strange one

1:00:15

that is what uh it is wonderful to see you again this love and respect from Brooklyn Allah Allah bless you Mercy L it's been a while it has indeed Allah keep you blessed a mean and smiling I mean it's a pleasure honestly to see you here uh somebody saying they want to join

1:00:41

um right how much not enough you know I need to start hitting it hard and heavy I was trying to you know Target a bit more make du for me I mean think I pulled my back you Salam your thoughts on the recent debates between Adnan Rashid and the Ahmed Community I haven't seen any recent ones and I don't I did see one debate a while back that was though I me when I say while I think it's been a good few at least maybe was it like half a year or something or or it feels like that I don't know but I saw one debate

1:01:21

and to be honest I don't you know each to their own I I I didn't feel that um uh you know brother Adnan um like I feel unfortunately the kadani uh kind of got the upper hand in that and this is the the problem you know that you know these kadis right so I think from my perspective and I could be wrong maybe you know a lot was going

1:02:00

on with brother Adnan I don't know maybe he was this was an unplanned visit and it was just you know just kind of landed on him but he was way too underprepared he was not ready to debate that I don't know what his name is the kardani guy um I could see he had been going to the gym though but you know Adnan was I don't know if generally he is but in that discussion that I saw and I don't know whether he's had more since then but in that discussion it it was a very poor perform and it was you know what it did is it

1:02:39

just made the cian's argument appear as though they're strong which they're not they're ridiculously absurd and but yeah so you know when people are debating you have to be careful you know you have to and I get it sometimes we can be you know sometimes maybe we're not expecting a debate and it becomes a debate and maybe there's a lot going on in our mind you know sometimes people are going through tough times as well and we don't know but you see when these things are being recorded and yeah and you just don't you know you may underestimate the opponent

1:03:20

and you know so right I'm going to don't overlook my Super Chat somebody said let me just go back see a Super Chat and then I've got somebody on I'll bring them on who's that hassin Hussein uh Super Chat S I want to hear your thoughts about gulam Ahmed Peres uh from Pakistan who has passed his thoughts are more aligned with you rahan Allah keep you blessed for the Super

1:03:57

Chat uh do you mean by that gulam Ahmed because there's obviously gulam ahmedani we're not talking I take you you're not talking about him you're talking about Peres the who's associated with the kind of quranist movement I you see I've never really looked into him profoundly but do feel that he is this is what I've come across that he's misrepresented um but I could be I don't know because I'm I'm speaking once again without having researched this but my impression is people say he rejected Hadith but then I've heard that he's not

1:04:35

he didn't reject Hadith he was just reasoning with them you know he was being more rational and being more um so yeah that's uh in any case you know look anybody who um has done some kma for Islam Allah bless them I mean and you know and people may have got things wrong along the way people may have made mistakes and and we all make mistakes and none of us are perfect but let's not you know this is why today's lesson was about you know what is it all about at the end of the day it's not about these little

1:05:14

things you know you have to look beyond that I was that the Super Chat by the way um ran Gan once again Allah keep you blessed uh quick question should we pray through times a day like we like we like the Quran teaches us or five time Hadith is telling us may Allah bless you shabab Allah keep you blessed for the Super Chat and right so me just see this indeterminate being which determines the determinance of existence determinations of Singularity one

1:05:53

far that is uh yeah you know on a side note people misunderstand this thing of they think that people are what people are saying is Allah's wud and our wud is together as one they're not saying that what they're actually saying is our wujud is the one in question you see here's the irony people that negate that they're so certain of their own wujud that they think it's as certain as God's for truth and in

1:06:31

that is a Folly you know and in all tress an arrogant one that that they fall into that you know yeah insan yeah insan you see we we we we assume that this eye is so aized that it is you know me I

1:07:13

am you see and the truth is our wujud is not as certain as Allah's wujud but that is the illusion of the configuration that we're in so yeah it amuses me you know how insan becomes so uh it's it's it's amusing to to watch um yeah you know it will be great I will reach out to fasab inshallah let me bring back my [Music]

1:07:53

um what's this uh yeah that will be epic um afterward somebody I'm not sure who's trying to talk to me privately but sure you can reach out to me on patreon we can connect there okay or you know I suppose if it's patreon you can just arrange an actual you can book an actual consultation a meeting right um Kaz allahar how are you Allah keep you blessed um me IM W Kazi allahar you

1:08:31

know ah right let's see let's bring some of these people on we've got uh Hussein B bananay Hussein how are you I'm good look at that I sent an an accent right there is that Australian down under is it oh most definitely is most definitely all right mate how's it going ah look mate it's not too bad in the land down under you know just kicking back with my kangaroo friends and all that you I I see these memes always

1:09:10

these clips where these kangaroos are just fighting with people they just like boxing them and it's like and and the guy's like I think what the hell wow yeah it's a fun place it's a fun place to be but you know cost of living's hitting everyone in the west as you know you know here Canada UK all all the um especially the younger generation the upand comers you know they're losing hope in the future becoming a lot more anxious and I think you know what you're talking about is really it's really beneficial especially

1:09:49

for those that are looking you know a house how can it go up 50% in the last few years you know and and and people are thinking about their future and whatnot and you know I've been on a similar spiritual journey over the last few years sort of as like what you're doing you know going down the esoteric path and just investigating and really like you've been saying you know just being in the present it's so beneficial and it's so soothing on that fire that burns you know within you you know cuz yeah growing up in the west you look around you're competing with

1:10:28

everyone Muslims non-muslims about getting stuff yeah and when you're not getting that stuff you're going on your phone to look at those that have potentially got that stuff and it can just send you down a spiral of anxiety and depression and and really alhamdulillah in Islam we have what you're talking about this spiritual path the spirituality and these great you know Masters have really managed to quell that thirst inside the human being but it's a struggle to obtain that knowledge and to obtain that quench quenching you know

1:11:06

Subhan Allah and you know when I think about myself what really quenched it was learning about Allah being coming a knowah that you know they say a knowah of Allah you know because I mean let's face it what's the prominent thing going around in the Muslim Community is the wahhabi salafi movement and that's totally opposite to what we're talking about it's very you know materialistic when you look into it and um yeah just just for myself I'm so

1:11:46

happy you know I've I've been you know especially when you B up Life's a game I've been thinking about this recently and and when you get get to these sort of levels of you know internalization of spirituality and and you realize that reality isn't real but at the same time it is very real you know it's easy to sit back when you got a fridge full of food you got money in the bank and go oh yeah you know reality is not real but then you know all you got to do is think about our brothers and sisters in the third world countries and imagine going to them and saying oh you know reality is not real they'll punch you on the

1:12:26

face you know going through struggles and and you know starvation and hunger so you know one lesson I took from this from you know the Masters would say as you ascend through this you know spiritual journey it becomes sort of intoxicating and you don't want to descend to the general population to help them and they're saying the whole purpose of Ascension in in this is so you can descend in take on their burdens and to help them in their Journeys you know and and and yeah that's just something um you know if anyone's interested in going down this path it

1:13:06

can be very um because the satisfaction is there it quenches that fire it quenches that thing inside of you it it really um grounds you in reality and and and that grounding you don't want to come back to reality you know and um but the purpose of gaining knowledge is to come back to the level of those of the general population because um yeah sorry I'm just ranting you it's a beautiful thing it's it's it's so true man it's that you know it's

1:13:43

like I guess in a way that's the game isn't it it's like Socrates coming back to the cave to tell people well you know there's actually this these are just shadows and there's World outside and and people I guess it's because those who who see it will'll see it but that is the that is our existence in this knowing in this realization that you you know you began by saying look we're so caught up in just the dun in this configuration and it's true and and and

1:14:22

it's so and that's the the be of this that it you know it just pulls you sucks you right in you are you're you're so part and parcel of the Matrix that you you know like you said you're competing you're trying to keep up oh do I want this do I want that and there's nothing wrong with gaining things see Allah does not you know in Islam Allah does not do them in the sense that having you know trying to amass things and get things oh I want

1:15:02

this oh you know I want this I want that oh I like this I like that it's I mean it's sure it's a bit you know there's a bit of folly in it but if you notice the them or the kind of critique that Allah mentions is not that this is you know or this is you know you know if it's that it distracted you yes that you it was not that it was necessar like a person I feel you know

1:15:39

if a person can make money I I do truly believe that things like money wealth they simply magnify the potency or the potential of who you are as a person you know if you are a good person you can be an even better person with more money like you will be able to help people you and if you were already somebody that was kind of very oh pulling in and you know miserly and then you will become an even more you will just do like it will make the good better and the worse worse

1:16:16

so Islam is is not but it's about that it distracted you from the real goal you know the real goal was that sure do this it's part of the you know it's part of the story it's part of the music that you that you are immersed in but there is a greater objective there is a greater story unfolding which was your bond in coming to know Allah in coming to know and through that you know coming to know yourself in a way because what you know you know it's through know thyself which I I take it you know it's a

1:16:55

lifelong journey but it does you're right that people they are getting depressed they are getting and I tell you what this Society I to me it's not that these societies have I I don't see things in a doom and gloomo that they've gone to the dogs or you know everything's ruined and I don't see it like that but what I do see is how you know what you're saying there is this anxiety there is this depression there is this increasing rate of it younger people are more depressed than older people and it makes no sense they grow up in affluent kind of luxury relatively speaking the

1:17:35

issue is shukar you see because we don't have like a sense of gratitude it it's what keeps the balance always there that we feel even when we like we have something we're grateful we don't have it we still oh damn okay I really want it but you know look I'm still so much I'm still so grateful Allah has given me this that's missing yes so when we compare with each other we you know that there's that uh I've cited often this study of the um in Psych and it's a sociological experiment as well where they will offer a person

1:18:13

uh like they give a person a prize of money and it's with the caveat that that the other person that is with them gets let's say it's a million pound the other person gets to say a figure that you will keep any percentage he could say half he could say 1% he could say anything he could say you get to keep 500,000 he could say you get to keep 5,000 he could say you get nothing but whatever he offers if you accept it you both get what the allocated amount if you decline it nobody gets anything and he only gets one chance now this is

1:18:53

very telling about the human NS because in those studies they found that unless a person was offered at least about 30% of the overall at least they would decline it so let's just put that into logic and rationale you see they walked in through the door like if we're sitting here now and you said you know what give yeah give MTI 100,000 give him 50,000 pound 50,000 I mean that's hell of like I walked in I'm going to walk out 50,000

1:19:30

pound richer I mean what more could I ask ah but you're going to walk out 950,000 richer so we live in comparison unfortunately so for me the Sharden freuder of knowing that you you know you so and so you think you're going to give me 50,000 and get 9 I'm I'm more happy you losing that than me gaining yeah that is very telling of our F and our kind of this NS within us like

1:20:08

yes it reminds me as a child you know that's how I used to you know when you play games with your friends if I was losing I would want to drag everyone down with me rather than just let them win you know that is fascinating because that there's a verse in the Quran well that and on this day it will not Avail you that you collectively are all damned and in being punished BEC and what the malikia understood from this is that they said that this meant you see

1:20:45

psychologically in the dun it did Avail you like you're saying so therefore in Maliki uh you know traditional law and F if a person was let's say convicted of a particular crime uh let's say he's he's got a record of theft or something they would not allow his testimony against theft because they felt what if this verse you know this kind of psychology what if the fact because you've got it it gives you peace knowing other people are alome so yeah it reminds me Al oh sorry

1:21:24

no no go for it go for it I was just going to say um there's a powerful Dua I remember it says Allah put the in my hand and not in my heart am mean that's such a beautiful Dua such a beautiful Dua and it is so true because you know in the heart it's like that Hadith I I read earlier today that you know whosoever that that he drew closer to God Allah placed a richness in their heart that the Dunya came to them even if they Allah decreed it for them now now I there's a story U actually told by

1:22:00

roomi where he says that there's a um that there's this person who is crying uh he's on the street you know's he's he's really not crying like really depressed and sad and and worried you know preoccupied like you think what's up with this guy man so somebody approaches him and they're on their way uh to some Masid and they approach him and they say well what's going on he says I lost a din you know whole gold piece is a dinar Duram was the Silver piece he says I lost a

1:22:38

DIN and and you know and and the person looks at him and thinks yeah Salam I mean look how the sense of cloud of worry upon this person so he says you know what like he thinks in his heart he gets the idea that look let's make this person happy Allah will make us happy so he gets a din he goes you know you take my dinard you know Allah bless you and goes off and this person he goes off to pray and whatever and he's spending his day he comes back and the person still where he was and he's sad and he's you know he's he's kind of overwhelmed with and he

1:23:18

says y he didn't say y but he could have I suppose far means friend he says he says what's wrong with you I I saw your well back and you lost a dinar I gave you a DIN and he says yeah that's true he says but I was thinking you know what if I had my original dinar I would now have two Dinars so that that's the F of insan it really is you know and you know the flip side to that is you know I was thinking the other day you know our effort is spent so much

1:23:56

on on on building you know for our lives for our families for our children but if you look back in human history the tens of thousands of years that humans have been around we we should have built to the Moon however we haven't there there there there's not really much that exists for the last couple hundred years sure there's a few pyramids and and whatnot you know these Mega structures but imagine all that human effort imagine you know all the kings that were oppressing their people tens and hundreds of thousands of man hours

1:24:35

being put to whatever project they were working on just gor just in dust you know so so Subhan Allah that's so true that and I guess part of that is that we have not seen ourself as ultimately one as a Ive as this greater because insan you see this is this is the the beauty insan is us you me but it's like a collective noun as well in a way used as insan like we are a collective human story as well like we are our individual stories but

1:25:15

we are that story of you know there's the human story unfolding from when Allah taught us his names you know the the manifestation of his names the power the that's within them so but I guess we've been disconnected and we are discon I put myself in that as well that you know unfortunately we you know in in these day-to-day hurdles it just becomes all about me me me me me yeah it sure does and was that you that posted about the hope and the hope and the mice test and the mice being dropped into the water did you post about that on I I have done on a few

1:25:55

occasions I'm not sure maybe somebody else's oh okay I I was just going to mention it just to the viewers you know just to show the show The Power of hope you know especially you know throughout the Quran you see the stories of people of Muslims of Believers being oppressed destroyed thrown into fires or whatnot and the power of hope so you know you had that one scientist he done a test in in the 60s with a couple of mice he put mice in a bucket of water to see how long they could swim for a lot of them would only swim for a few minutes and then drown he done a test again the mice would swim for a few minutes he rescued the mice took them

1:26:33

out of the water dried them for 15 minutes then put them back into the water and keep in mind that they swam to the point of failure before he took him out so how long do you think that those mice swam for after that it was 60 hours because the mice had hoped that they were going to be rescued Subhan Allah you know so yeah there's always hope it's an in a game isn't it yeah it really is isn't it it is it is there's there is light within us that we just cannot fathom we cannot

1:27:10

you know to us with this this within you know this is me that's you but there is but there is something within us that is that we cannot it's unbounded and and from it are these things the hope the fight the belief the story how people human beings are the only creatures that can suddenly change their entire story like a person could just wake up tomorrow if they had the realization and they could just say you know what enough is enough and radically

1:27:48

change their lives they could go from you know somebody that wasn't to somebody that's going to learn things immerse themselves they could just become it's incredible what they could become 100 yeah but no that that is insane you know this this this this what you know some call the third chimpanzee yes when when you look at us it's yeah yeah and you know we're not robots we're not pre-programmed to do this this and this although we may have been doing ABC for our whole lives and they may be be bad habits but if you were to think about it logically if we

1:28:28

wake up in the morning and chose consciously our actions every human being doing something that you may want to do has those same two arms two legs two eyes that you're doing yeah so it really comes down to our choices in life and what we're what we're making and and and you you know I never grew up reading books very much you know I was more of a movie person if a movie on the book I'm just like I love movies it's I think so much of my learning has happened through World General learning has happened through movies you know and when you

1:29:07

choose to to when you make better choices your life will become better yeah yeah um and I love the I love the what we're learning about this the last few sessions it really I always thought that there was more to the Quran and and and just these conversations that you're going on it really is expanding my knowledge especially my deep love for it um Maliki madhab amazing thank you for introducing me to it you're doing it you're do started praying like a m at home and

1:29:46

whatnot I don't know it just feels Subhan Allah it feels natural if that that makes sense yeah that's what it's about you know it's about that returning to nature removing these shackles this kind of state of nature I don't mean nature nature the Wilderness sure that's different but I mean Salah in a state of nature and and there's things that the Maliki M often emphasizes even about nature about which okay you know in my I sometimes don't live up to because you know we're in this busy world but they actually the Maliki teaching is that SU should be done only on something natural

1:30:26

ideally no I mean it doesn't invalidate the pray but you should be done on the actual Earth or grass or anything natural I mean you know here have got a carpet you know this is our I suppose my kind of falling short but truthfully there is something very natural about the school of Medina and yeah so that's there is definitely there is something that really sits well with with the soul in the school of Medina um you know because you know the other MBS you can see how they've been institutionalized throughout the ages especially the

1:31:04

rulings that reach us today yeah from from the Hani maab you know I got some Pakistani friends or whatnot you can just tell it's totally devoid very very in and and it's not to say that the malikia haven't as well been institutionalized but it's just that there's been there is still that free within them the free spirit correct there is also uh an element like you can also see versions of it that have been institutionalized but you can still see free spirited natural versions uh which still exist now that's been difficult with some of the other mabs that the institutionalization has just drowned

1:31:41

all out and you do get some people trying to be a free spirit but it's a such a a difficult and you know more power to them but it is a very difficult Journey for them but yeah wow you know so husin wow this has been an absolute pleasure what I was going to say is drop me a message on Instagram uh let's connect there and yeah and we'll stay connected inshallah it's Abol pleasure I've enjoyed you coming on today and really it's been honestly it's been it's been it's a connection it's a connection I I feel it so Allah bless you man inshallah uh future patreon coming on M

1:32:18

yes sir okay yes sir Allah bless you Salam alikum people right there that was Hussein um Allah what what a guy you know this sometimes you don't even know someone but you speaking of being there's a poet U poet Abdul Hamid Adam and that's crazy Adam the opposite of of being and he has a poem where he says he

1:32:52

says he says that sometimes by meeting some people encountering them you meet a layer of your own beingness beingness so well Allah bless you all there's uh uh some some people uh thoughts on Imam Ahmed rakan Bry uh Allah bless him I do

1:33:31

I think highly of Imam Ahmed razah Khan BR he was you know in this uh mystical esoteric Sufi sense and aik of the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wasallam and his t bears testimony to that I do however I mean I feel that unfortunately there is such a cult around him that you know holds him to such a makam that he is infallible and you know never like he is the ultimate I I don't think this and I could be wrong but I don't think he

1:34:09

himself would have agreed with that and you know he himself was somebody who stood you know if anything he stood for the love of the prophet and that is something that above anything uh you know I would absolutely salute that he spent his life defending the honor of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and the prophet's honor is always first so I you know I absolutely love uh that and adore that about him does it mean that you know would I personally feel that all his views have to or we have to

1:34:46

I I don't do that kind of of him and and not with understanding you know his his him being a great lover of the Prophet sallallah alaihi wasallam I don't feel that we should have like a cultish Outlook towards him where you know uh let's say Imam Ahmed rahan may Allah bless his afterlife that if if he said it then we have to like even if today something you know somebody said oh he said that the I haven't read this but I watched the clip they said that uh he said that the Earth the solar system

1:35:24

is geocentric that the Earth Sun revolves around the Sun and because Imam Ahmed rahan said it we should today say this I mean this this is silly kind of talk I don't know whether he said it but even if he said it you know it doesn't matter like you have to understand that it is all this is our journey to Allah and it's to that light and what is the true guide for us is the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wasallam and along the way they are phenomenal people you know just Legends like Imam Malik and these you know Giants of Islam and then along the way we'll get other

1:36:03

favorites you know you may say ABD and and and theni and you may say you know Abdul Kim and you may say people like um and you could and you come out with and you you may say of more recent times you know imadi and you may uh Imam Rah Ahmed Khan brav and you may and whoever you love and that's the same you know it doesn't mean it's the same with diandi

1:36:41

haat you know somebody may say uh Anar Shah kashmiri or uh mahm alassan uh you know hind or Ash Ali tan or anybody they've got an immense love for that sure and we've all got our reasons and look people have gone but to us we need to always understand that these people would not have wanted us to think that they were you know become a cult of them in the sense that they were infallible and and I'm sure every person has something hopefully wonderful to

1:37:19

contribute to this umah and maybe some people it's maybe it's a commentary on a book maybe it's something you know maybe it's a devotion maybe it's um you know and they've all struggled you know they all struggled they all I was uh reading about Sheik Mahmud alassan she hind that he um you know he he was resisting the British and part of the kind of the silk uh um kind of resistance movement it was called the silk hker Chief or the silk letters and but he was gaining this

1:37:58

acceptance so he went to I believe turkey and got some people to back him and then he went to he he he went on Hajj I believe and he got the uh the shareif of mecah but little did he know that the Sharif of mecah was in cahoots with the British as was Muhammad Abdul wahabi as well they were all in CES but differently and the Sharif of Makkah as Mahmud Al Hassan was telling him look we've got this support we're going to go back there's this movement for a resistance and the ottomans are with us and you know we're going to have this

1:38:38

kind of resistance and rise for and fight for our and you know we've got this as he was leaving Makkah the Sharif of Makkah Hussein Ali sold him out and the British arrested she Mahmud alassan and imprisoned him for a few few years and uh I believe was in Malta or was it in the Maldives they imprisoned him but but look at that you know I mean it's suffering for this theme and regardless of whether we agree with their opinions or disagree sometimes it's suffering for the sake of This Dean of Allah and his messenger and you know may Allah bless bless them and bless everyone bless their after life

1:39:18

anybody who does that and as as to Imam Ahmed Rah Khan like I mentioned you know to me the thing that shines about him be and that's the only thing that so that I you know endearingly love about him was that he he stood unwaveringly for the love and the honor of the Prophet even if other people may have different interpretation but you know for the love of the prophet he stood his

1:39:55

ground and that is a lesson for us and I do believe that even today you know when we hear things like the age of Aisha it is a shame you know it breaks my heart that people don't understand this yeah that it's the love of the Prophet don't say these things even if it's in bukari bukari is not infallible you know it it tears W you know look I'm going to say this then we'll wrap this up tonight that um take something like this take there's a verse of the

1:40:36

Quran that do not say saying in Arabic comes from the word of that hey like if I say to you hey you know keep me in mind Keep Me In mind bro you know all like this is to as we say today all say oh you know don't you know remember me you know if any of this then me me remember me was in one way could be used like that if I was to say to somebody keep me in mind or if I was to say hey take care of me as well please or consider me as

1:41:15

well have some consideration for me Allah declared this Haram why what's what's wrong with saying linguistically nothing wrong with it nothing wrong I said you please consider me nothing wrong with that but some of those who you know hated the prophet they started to use this as a mocking tool to mock the prophet they would say you see another

1:41:54

way can be from the third form in Arabic as in to is in consider me but it could be from the first form to mean which means Shepherd so they started they realized the prophets companions would often say this as a oh you know consider us as well like keep us in your good you know consideration so they started to use this as a mockery like they started to say as in Our Shepherd and some people say that in in the Jewish language at the time it was

1:42:32
