smell another ahem alhamdulillah so that
was salam ala rasoolillah he was early
he was IB he woman while I'm a bad in
our short class last Wednesday we
mentioned some of the tortures and some
of the trials that the Sahaba had to
undergo in the early madkin phase and
today Allahu ta Ala
we will continue from where we left off
in our last class we mentioned the
tortures of Bilal Ahmad yeah so
mahabhava bled a lot and many of the
other of the Sahaba especially the
Sahaba who were not from the Haresh from
the Mullaly from the slave class because
of course those Sahaba
were not protected by the Society of
Mecca now the question arises what
happened with the profitsystem himself
did he
undergo any physical torture any
physical pain and suffering there's no
question that he underwent a lot of
emotional a lot of smear campaigns but
how about physically well physically no
doubt that the Quraysh overall and the
profitsystem as well were relatively
protected but this does not mean that
nothing happened to them this does not
mean that they were completely immune
rather we have a number of incidents in
which the Prophet system was physically
harmed eventually of course they talked
about assassinating him and then they
had multiple assassination attempts
culminating in the grand assassination
attempt that took place the night before
the hijra right so even the prophets
asanam suffered physically and we have a
number of incidents that have been
narrated from this early period of time
sometimes allah subhana wa ta'ala and
His divine wisdom protected him and
sometimes for wisdom Allah knows he was
not protected and this is for wisdom
Allah know sometimes he is protected and
sometimes he is not protected so of the
times that he was protected there is a
time when Abu jahil when Abu jahil was
boasting to his peers to his colleagues
in Quraysh and Abu jahil said to the
people that I swear by a lot Andalusia
that
if I see this man again one more time
the professor Sodom I am going to put my
foot on his neck meaning when he's in
such that I'm going to put my foot on
his neck
and I'm going to throw sand onto him
because the profitsystem was one of the
few people who would pray in front of
the cabin most of the Muslims would not
pray in front of the Kaaba most of the
Muslims would pray privately in their
homes but the profitsystem was one of
those few who would pray publicly in
front of the Kaaba and they got
irritated at this and they said I would
yahoo said that the next time I see him
I swear by a Latin Azusa
that I am going to put my hand my foot
on his neck and the profitsystem came
that day abu huraira narrated and he
started praying and when the Prophet
says I went into sajda Abu jahil came
forward trying to or attempting to put
his foot on the neck of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam
but before he got to him the people
around him saw that he turned backwards
he started walking backwards and he
started pushing with his hands away and
they couldn't see what was happening and
when he returned back they said what
happened what happened to your threat
why did you walk away we saw you putting
your hand out and so uh Buju had said
that I saw between me and him a pit of
fire I saw between me and him a pit of
fire and there were wings hovering above
that fire when the professor son
finished he told the Muslims that this
fire was brought by the Angels the wings
were those of the angels and had he
taken one step closer the Angels would
have shred him he Rock gonna rock a bit
to basically to bits and shreds they
would have shredded him into bits and
because of this Allah subhana WA Ta'ala
revealed the conclusion of soda o'clock
the first five verses are the first
verses of the Quran and then Allah
revealed the rest of the verses
Canela in debt in san allahu allah
allahu allah in arabic o Raja our
Italian ha Abbadon either solid this is
a reference here have you seen the one
who tries to stop the slave when he
worships Allah a tancana
I want to talk alright and tell about
what I won laughs yeah and meaning Abu
jahil allomere an ambien allaha Yara
does he not know that Allah is watching
him
kal-el Alam Yenta he if he doesn't stop
doing this if he doesn't stop coming
close kam-lam Yenta he lenez fan bin
nausea we are going to grab him with
strength from the nausea this is the
nausea we're gonna grab on to him now
this is an expression in Arabic for
those of you who are active interaction
with camels and the farms if you hold on
to the forelock of a sheep or goat a cow
you are holding at the animal is in your
control right so this is a expression in
Arabic which means he will be in our
control completely Lennis Ramban nausea
now see it in Cathy but in Katya this is
a nausea it's a head it's a brain that
is full of lies and it is a wrong brain
heart it's completely deluded faliero
Nadia let him call whomever he wants
Nadia this is an allusion to the Nadi of
the Quraysh what is the Nadi of the
orishas the Parliament of the Quraysh
and he was sitting in the Nadi of the
Quraysh when he said this threat when he
said this threat he's sitting in the
parliament in the Nadi and he says to
the people in this Nadi
what is the Parliament the Parliament is
one area out of the cabin one area of
the harem this was where they would sit
Abdul Mutallab would have his high chair
over there
that was the Nadi and so Allah says
faliero Nadia let him call these people
that he's boasting to senator is a banya
we are going to call our helpers and
that means the special angels kal a
tutor who don't worry about him was Jude
you do you're such de worked at it right
so if you understand the story so that a
crock comes completely into place here
that the Prophet system is doing such de
and he is praying and Abuja he is trying
to stop him and this is why allah
subhanho wa taala revealed in the Quran
that r8l adn had AB Danida salah kal-el
a tutor who was good worked at him all
of this is a reference to abu jahil in
this case abu jahil was unsuccessful
allah azza wajal in a wisdom known to
him wanted to protected process him this
time
is also narrated or one is obeyed and
other one is obeyed as we said many
times or one is obeyed himself is not a
Sahabi he was born right after the death
of the Prophet system his father is
debated even anawim and that is the
cousin of the process of him and his
mother is a SMAW binti abu bakr and that
is a sister-in-law of the prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa salem and his aunt
is aisha and his older brother is out
the leaven is obeyed he is the most
famous tabary in terms of lineage
unfortunately or Allah willed he did not
become a sahabi because he was too young
his older brother by 30 years is
Abdullah bin is obey but he himself is
much younger and so he never met the
professor said him so I'm dilib news
obeyed asked abdullah bin al medina
house another famous Sahabi from mecca
tell me the worst thing that you saw
happened to the prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa seldom in mecca and this shows
us I mean this is a curiosity imagine if
you had been of that generation you too
would want to ask those who had
witnessed right what happened tell me so
he wanted to know what is the worst
thing that you saw that the pagans or
the the mushrikuna did to the Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam so
abdullah benamber narrates what he saw
and he says once the profitsystem was
praying next to the kaaba when Ruth ye
bin ABI more I rocked by even a beam
world he is one of those four or five
who are considered to be the most
dastardly the most ignoble of the
enemies of Islam I have said multiple
times that you can divide the enemies of
Islam the enemies of the process and I'm
into two very general categories of
course there's a fine line and is
sometimes difficult to place some people
in the middle but clearly there are two
extremes amongst the opponents there
were those who were somewhat of a noble
character and they never stooped to low
tactics low tactics meaning like this
one I'm gonna step on his foot I'm gonna
throw sand on him or one of my even a
bit more Eiffel is one of the the
meanest characters worse than Abu jahil
in his if you like ignore bility right
this is the work really local bite is
probably the worse even worse than Abuja
that's the other extreme the first
extreme people
i Khalid ib'n Alwaleed Ramona blonde hot
top there they're angry they're nasty
but they're not maybe even nasty is in a
good word
their opponents but they don't get nasty
in other words their honorable opponents
their tactics are they're going to keep
it above the belt as we say right
generally speaking those who kept it a
little bit noble alive eventually guided
them to Islam greatest example Abu
Sufyan greatest example is Khalid ib'n
Alwaleed now these people Roma have no
hot top they were not followers of Islam
from the beginning there were enemies
and they did a lot of harm but their
harm was within the system as much as
they could legally we're using their
tongue sometimes they got physical but
even that was not ignoble they didn't
torture innocent slaves like all may yet
been hunted to be not right they didn't
do that type of stuff
whereas we had the other opposite
category and this category people like
Abuja people like offer Bible anymore I
people like what he did normal hero the
famous poet the most famous poet of
Mecca right that he he wanted to keep
his position so he invents lies and he
knows it's a lie
so that category of people by and large
they were eliminated and they were not
guided to Islam and so everybody is one
of them so Abdullah blahblahblah now
said that one day the Rafah system was
praying in front of the Kaaba one earth
by even a beam or eighth came from
behind him and he took off his robe his
garment could have been like a type of
shawl and he threw it around his neck
the process of Zak and began to choke
him began to choke him and the
prophecies him was struggling with that
choking and the people did not intervene
at all until finally abu bakr was told
that your companion is being tortured
and so he rushed to the masjid and he
began beating up from behind now because
now he's the process of being choked
from behind and so he attacked a rock
kuba and he said to him at
Pitou do neuron and Yahoo Lobby Allah
are you gonna kill a person just because
he said he says my Lord is God my lord
is Allah that's why you're going to kill
him and Allah subhana WA Ta'ala revealed
verses in the Quran and to this day
otaku delusion and yada yada yada
combinati Marik becomes Allah Hafiz in
there this exact phrase of Abu Bakr
Allah quoted him in the Quran and this
verse is now a verse in the Quran and
Allah Azza WA JAL quotes Abu Bakr saying
this in the Quran and the shows us Abu
Bakr is not a regular Sahabi he is
somebody whom Allah has explicitly
mentioned is a Sahaba right if the Akula
you saw hey be he the only person whom
Allah testifies is a Sahabi by name
basically not bollywood not by name but
by indirect name right when he says to
his Sahabi to his companion and Allah
called Abu Bakr in the Quran and we said
the only other Sahaba who has been
quoted by name is who is 8 right so
these are the two Sahaba they are
definitely at a different level than the
other Sahaba and so in this time allah
azza wajal will that abu bakr save the
prophet sallallahu alayhi wa seldom and
there are other examples of this nature
where they physically harmed him
sometimes the harm was not physical but
rather emotional it wasn't that he was
going to die like this time they tried
to kill him but it was rather that it
was emotional distress or it was
something that a matter of prestige and
this is of the worst that has been
narrated in this case it been Masood
narrates and this version is in Behati
and it is mentioned in many books of
hadith even Masood narrates and even my
shrewdest saw this as an eyewitness and
he could not do anything because even
miss Road was of the slave class even
mustard was of not a horror she had he
done anything his life would have been
taken immediately and they had to leave
it to the others to do so even mr. rude
said that once the Prophet system was
praying again in front of the Kaaba
look they're usually attacking him in
public in front of the GABA why to drive
the point to make the point to embarrass
him to humiliate him when Abu jihad and
a group of his a group of his ilk of his
peers were sitting around around each
other and the day before a camel had
just been sacrificed
camels are not sacrificed on a daily
basis once every few weeks somebody's
going to sacrifice a camel so Abu jahil
said who amongst you will go to the
carcass of that camel in the there is a
dump area outside Makkah there's an area
where you would throw your trash so who
will go to the the carcass of that camel
and bring the ntral the intestine the
the the guts that which nobody's going
to eat it's been thrown away bring that
and throw it on the back of the Prophet
of Muhammad when he is praying to his
Lord who can do this it's a challenge
it's a challenge that he's giving now
who's gonna do this and so the worst of
them even Massoud says the worst of them
Rock kuba even a bit more at the one
that we just mentioned the worst of them
stood up and he went now can you imagine
this is a nobleman of Quraysh right can
you imagine it must have been wearing
his fine clothes he's he's considered to
be of the leaders he goes to a dead
carcass and he puts his hand inside this
filthy decomposing body and he carries
with his own two hands and trails blood
this this disgusting sticky substance
can you imagine the hatred that is even
more disgusting than the body the hatred
that it is in his heart for him to do
this and he comes from that yard from
that lot and he got walks all the way
into the city and the Prophet system is
still praying because as we know the
process in prayer was long he's not like
our prayer two minutes and were over
literally if you calculate it some some
of his prayers would be two-three hours
sometimes minimum will be 10 15 minutes
right this is the prayer of the process
of him so he waited for him to go into
such that the process name is unaware of
what's happening behind him and when he
fell into sajda then Roco became and he
dumped all of the stomach and the
entrails and the intestine this big it's
a camel it's not so trivial animal you
know and he dumped it all onto the head
of the Prophet SAW said him while he is
inside Judah and all of it fell on to
him and and it the weight of it was so
heavy that he could not lift himself up
he could not lift himself off even
Masood said if I stop I'll comb the
people began to laugh so hard that some
of them had to fall onto the
asides and others were hitting
themselves you know how they do when
they laugh like this and others were
hitting themselves and I was standing
from a distance looking but I had no way
to help I didn't have muna meaning there
was nobody that would have supported me
I am even masood azhar jabu jihad and
what not even Massoud is like Balad and
others that they would have
instantaneously been killed because they
don't have any honor this is not their
society they are slaves in this society
and I was of those who were seeing him
but I could not do anything and the
profitsystem remained
Sajid remained in sajda until some
persons went to tell fatima who at this
time was probably around eight nine
years old went to tell fatima that your
father needs your help somebody with
some mercy we don't know his name
whoever he went to felt him at the
daughter of the prophet saww said i'm
and so fatima was a jew idea was a
little girl I've been immersed Ruth is
saying she was a little girl at the time
and she began crying and running towards
the prophecies him and helped him get
this dead animal off of his back and the
prophecy said him then stood up he
managed to stand up and he turned and he
faced them and he raised his finger up
to Allah subhana WA Ta'ala and when they
saw him in this fashion they became
quiet and he began making dua against
them by name allah la Capilla Bijan
allah allah allah kabir open a beam
right allama alayka be and he mentioned
every single one of them and he
mentioned each of them three times until
all of them had a deadly pale in their
faces the blood drain from their face
and the people that I mentioned here abu
jahal eben hashem roots bergna Ribeira
and shaiva eben Rabia Walid bin rock
kuba umeå been hot off rocked by a bin
Abi my ebone mustard said and there was
a seventh and I forgot his name seven
people were in this nadi in this
gathering and then up in mr. root said
so I swear by the one who sent Muhammad
SAW son with the truth that I myself saw
every one of these seven dead in the
Battle of butter
the first engagement a lot took care of
all of them the first engagement that
took place every one of these seven as I
said the the enemies that didn't have
any nobility they were there's no point
Allah did not save them they though they
don't have any good in them this is not
this is the shows you have no humility
know it completely callus your hearts
are sealed so every one of these seven
in my suit said I swore by Allah I saw
with my own eyes every one of the seven
I saw them dead in the Battle of Badr
and I saw their bodies dragged into the
well and thrown into the well of better
and eventually of course the matters got
worse than this and talk began of
assassination it is narrated in events
even is how that once the news spread
that they had planned to assassinate the
professor sinem and a neighbor told
Fatima that a lady neighbor told Fatima
that you know they're talking about
assassinating your father
and Fatima ran home and told the process
of them that they're planning to
assassinate you
and the profitsystem said fear not Allah
Azza WA JAL will take care of me bring
me water and so she brought him water he
did will do he may do out to allah
subhana wa ta'ala and he walked into the
masjid and this is towards the end of
the the Macan era so I'm making
incidents together this is not in the
beginning towards the end of the Macan
era because the assassination talk only
began in the 8th 9th 10th year of the
Dawa right we're still technically we're
still in the fourth fifth year but I'm
just giving you some examples so they
said we're going to assassinate him and
they had their weapons prepared so he
did will do and he walked into the
Masjid and they had their arms and they
have ready to kill him but not one of
them could move they all became
paralyzed they could not stand up and
the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa seldom
took some sand and threw it at their
faces while they're standing while
they're sitting and looking at him and
they were completely paralysed and he
said shahe tell wooju may these faces be
cursed and in this area as well
the Sahabi says every one of these were
of those who were killed in the battle
of better every one of these were of
those who were killed in the Battle of
Badr
there are many more incidents as well
again we cannot mention every one of
them because there's too many but the
point I'm trying to stress the Prophet
SAW Sam himself was physically and
emotionally tortured now the question
arises based on last week's hidaka and
this week's of all the torture all the
pain all the suffering a question should
come to the mind of every one of us we
firmly believe that our Prophet Muhammad
system is the best prophet and all of
them prophets are great prophets we
firmly believe that his followers were
the best followers we firmly believe
that Allah loves the prophets and loves
the followers of the prophets so why
then were they tested in this fashion
and manner what is the wisdom in such
persecution in such hardship why not
just protect the believers and give them
immediate victory and cause them to have
the Medina and state in Makkah
immediately let the people believe and
in fact is not just in our religion even
Jesus Christ his followers were
persecuted and they suffered from their
hands of the Romans right and the
prophets before the Moses and the
followers of Moses suffered at the hands
of Pharaoh why did the prophets and
their followers undergo so much
suffering when they are on the side of
Allah they're on the side of God what is
the purpose of the greatest men on earth
being tortured our prophet monosystem
there's a dead carcass being thrown on
him why in response to this there are
many reasons not just one first and
foremost to remind them and through them
to remind us that Allah did not create
us to live a comfortable life in this
world there is a purpose for Allah
creating us and that purpose is the next
world Allah says that he is the one who
was helical motive Al Hayat ax Leah blue
aku au comas and wala he has created
life and death Allah says who led other
Hikawa abaca Allah is the one who causes
you to laugh and causes you to cry every
human being has good and bad things
happen to him every human being laughs
in Christ you have occasions where
you're happy you have occasions when
your
so Allah reminds them and through them
Allah reminds us that you are not
created to just live and and live in
this world you have something greater
and that is the next world and therefore
of the wisdoms is to earn in whatever
way possible when I say earn here of
course you don't earn paradise but you
earn a Las mercy that will get you to
paradise
you have to do something to gain that
mercy from Allah paradise is too
precious to be earned by a lifetime of
good no matter what you do it's too too
much to be earned but Allah will magnify
the small that you do and that will then
give you a Las blessings and that will
then give you paradise and so it is the
wisdom of Allah to test mankind to see
those who are pure and firmly believe in
him and those who are worthy of being
blessed in the al-qaeda versus those who
are not and those who are not worthy of
those blessings Allah subhana WA Ta'ala
says in surat al-ankabut 'his even a so
a neutral on yahoo a man whom la
afternoon did mankind think that they
would be left without being tested
without being tried verily we tested the
people before them and through these
tests Allah will show who are those who
are true and who are those who are
hypocrites Allah says in surah
al-baqarah verse 214 i'm hesi burtom and
tell Hodel Jeanetta well M let me lead
in each I have income well am I to go
method in a hollow no cobbler come do
you think you're going to enter gender
just like that
I'm hasib you to enter the whole agenda
do you think Jenna's been going to be
given to you for free and Allah has yet
to test you in another verse and Allah
and Allah has told you what has happened
to the people before you Massa to
Marlboro azules illu hotteok ala
rasulina muhammad anis Allah Allah Allah
Allah Hikari they were shaken and they
were afflicted with hardships and with
poverty until they called out when will
the help of Allah come verily the help
of Allah is indeed close and I already
mentioned in last week's Holika kebab
not the one whose slave owner that lady
Oh Myanmar would take hot iron from the
coals from the furnace and use it to
torture him on his back she would
literally take this furnace this coal
the the iron that was in the in the
furnace and torture him with this one
day he came to the prophecies in him
hababam and out of this one and he said
yeah no sword Allah in a meta and for
how long for how long are we going to be
like this you're the prophet of Allah
Rijn sure how long for how long are we
going to be tortured like this why don't
you ask Allah to help us against these
people and so the profitsystem was
sitting against the Kaaba with his back
to the Kaaba he came forward to show the
importance he came forward to to show
the importance of what he's going to say
and he said indeed the people before you
the people before you they would be
tortured worse than this and they would
have a comb of ayran one of them would
have a comb of ayran that would strip
his flesh off of his bones and another
would have a saw or a knife cut himself
in half so that he would be completely
cleaved and still that would not turn
them away from the worship of Allah
verily I swear to you by the one who has
sent me that Allah will perfect this
religion now you Tim Minh Allahu Allah
Allah will perfect this matter until you
will see a day in which a lady Shepherd
or shepherdess will take her flock from
how the remote - Sunna very far away to
small villages or cities in Yemen right
forget Mecca from how the remote to
Sonia she's going to take a flock of
sheep and she will only be scared of
Allah and the wolf to eat her sheep a
Muslim lady will do this and she's not
going to fear anything now that's
exactly what happened and many times in
history the part of the peace the
security and Muslim lands was so much
and the person said Allah is going to
fulfill his promise what I can the
component the statue don't but you are
those
are being hasty notice the profitsystem
had full faith this religion will
succeed but there's going to be trials
in the beginning and you guys are being
hasty about this and spare Allah these
punishments that the process described
of ayran combs and of being cleaved in
half this is exactly what happened to
the early Christians at the hands of the
Romans right the Romans were pagan
nation until Constantine converted as
you know Constantine in three 321 or so
he converted and and adopted
Christianity until that time Romans were
a pagan nation and they persecuted the
Christians the Emperor Nero burnt the
Christians he used the Christians as
lightbulbs literally he doused them with
petrol and he used them as lightbulbs in
his city of Rome they became the light
poles for a few days because he would
got irritated at them for some reason
they were persecuted much very severely
in some cases worse than the early
Muslims and so the processor was saying
there were Muslims before you because do
we believe these two have been Muslims
at the time they were Muslims before you
who were persecuted worse than this and
they did not swerve away from the
worship of Allah Allah is going to give
you victory but you need to be patient
and therefore from this we learn and
this is of the wisdoms of why they have
to undergo so much hardships that the
blessings of Allah are earned through
trial and struggle they don't just come
you need to earn them through whatever
tests come your way for in them is to
use run in them and restore you Sarah
with difficulty will come the ease with
the difficulty will come the ease so in
the malar city you saw in the
miraculously you saw the user will come
with the resort there must be the rose
or the difficulty and then there will be
the ease even the prophets of allah are
not handed the blessings on a silver
platter they need to struggle to earn it
they need to struggle to to show it and
in this is wisdom because the later
person could come and say if they didn't
undergo these struggles suppose and we a
thousand four hundred years later are
undergoing struggles
then we will say subhanAllah they didn't
have any struggles there the prophet of
God they came and
I gave them peace and security
instantaneously because they suffered
worse than us automatically we realized
they were better than us
this human nature and this leads us to
the last point of some of the blessings
here the companions and even the prophet
in his own way they through these
struggles clearly demonstrated their
superiority over us without any question
they demonstrated all right Yura and you
see it in their struggles it's not just
speech of Allah that Allah is pleased
with them they are pleased with him it's
not just the speech of the process on
that my Sahaba are the best of all
generations you see it in what they do
and how they live their lives and even
amongst the Sahaba not all of them are
the same those who converted in Mecca
have a higher degree than those who
converted in Medina those who converted
an early mut to have a higher degree
that those who converted in late Makkah
was a buffoon el agua Luna meaning
mahadji no one saw the earliest who
converted saba cuneta Walloon they have
a degree higher of the Mujahideen and
then the unsung so Allah gave them
preference depending on their level of
Iman and the last point is that weak so
that we can have real examples shining
lights of guidance such that when we
face trial and tribulation we can take
comfort we can find solace we can find
role models and so panel law there is no
society that has undergone the type of
persecution that the early Muslims of
Mecca did and therefore every
persecution that takes place we can find
some type of comfort when we look at
what happened to the early Sahaba moving
on to the next point in the serie
when the Sahaba reached around we don't
know the exact number but roughly a
ballpark figure around 20 or 30 of the
Sahaba were present the profitsystem
realized that he needed a place to
congregate because there was they
couldn't do so in Mecca in the in the
Kaaba because it was too public a lot of
Muslims were secret Muslims they hadn't
informed their relatives and friends of
their Islam especially some of the
slaves who had converted they hadn't
told their masters so they needed a
place that they could congregate there
was no mosque that they could prey on
other than the Kaaba the first mosque
that was ever built in Islam was the
Masjid al kaba Masjid cubot was the
first Masjid ever built in Islam there
was no Masjid before Masjid koba the
physical Masjid and that's why Allah
calls it a war baton who sees a light
aqua right Allah calls it in the Quran
the first house of worship built upon
tapa meaning in Islam so there was no
Masjid in Mecca the Kaaba at this time
is a holy land but there's idols around
it there's no sanctuary so the Prophet
SAW time decided to choose the house of
as you all know I'll come even a bill
out come and his name is probably an
asset of Laterza our common even a bit
alchemist his title is a common name
Allah come a bin a bin or calm and so
down outcome became the place where the
Sahaba would meet when did this happen
we don't have any year but probably
around we would estimate around the the
middle of the third or the beginning of
the fourth year in other words as soon
as the Dawa went public within a few
months after that
remember that that will in public after
three years right after three years the
Dhawan public before three years there
is no public that way so we don't have
people converting that much after three
years when the Dow becomes public all of
this persecution begins the profitsystem
means a place so he chooses the house of
Allah come now question why the house of
an album what is the wisdom behind
choosing the house of Allah come the
books of zero do not mention this so we
need to study who is this personal
outcome where his house was and then we
try to derive some
if it al Arkham point number one he was
from the noblemen of the Quraysh but he
was not from the tribe of been washing
he was from the tribe of Banu masoom who
can tell me who is the most famous
person from brother Mouzone Abu jahil is
from Banu mizzou so by choosing somebody
from the Banu makhzoom automatically
nobody is gonna suspect that a Masumi is
gonna help a Hashemi because there's
huge rivalry between them right so the
profitsystem is choosing somebody from
the tribe from a tribe that is a rival
tribe now islam is more important to
Muslims than masoom and Hashim right
but the jahaly arabs cannot look beyond
their their their their their tribal the
tribalism their Julia so the process of
number one he chooses somebody from the
Maha zoom so it's not going to be
suspicious
number two outcome was of the first
people to accept Islam they say he was
of the first 10 so clearly then he could
be completely trusted because this is a
secret place in Makkah nobody's supposed
to know about it so you need somebody
that you can trust your life with and so
he chooses somebody who is of the
earliest converts and they know him
inside out so he's of the first 10
converts to Islam number 3 according to
one report Elohim had inherited this
property from his father he was a young
man probably in his late teens maybe
even 18 19 years old and so once again
this has added to the disguise that you
wouldn't expect an 18 year old kid to be
such a brave of course 18 year old for
them was a young man for us they're
considered kids still but for that age
was he was a young man nobody would
think that an 18 year old would risk
everything to help the prophet muhammad
salallahu alayhi wasalam point number 4
according to another report al arkham
had not announced his islam he had he'd
kept it secret and so yet another added
if you like a cover
of secrecy that nobody would know that
an outcome would be helping because they
don't expect him to be Muslim point
number five the house of Allah Rock'em
was located behind the mountain of Safa
now the mountain of Safa you all know
where it is is that in the center of
Makkah is an outside of Makkah the
center of Mecca so why would you want a
secret meeting place in downtown one
would imagine you would want a secret
meeting place on the outskirts where
nobody would see you right why would you
want a secret meeting place smack dab in
the middle of downtown Mecca which is
behind mountain suffer who can figure
this one out true but there is another
point close by to what the Kaaba so how
will that help them
maintain secrecy present all nearby the
making
okay but there's still much more that's
true but there's still a much more
clearer point they can monitor the whole
garage you're not going to be able to
eavesdrop from inside the house but
maybe a point
imagine if 40 people are walking towards
a small house outside of Mecca traffic
traffic everybody has to go to downtown
every day Raqqa everybody has to go
there every day that's what you do in
the afternoon you and when you when all
of the chores are done you go and you
sit in the Noddy or around the Kaaba
that's what you do for socialization so
getting to that area walking to and fro
is the most natural thing in the world
and so as dr. Saab said is basically
right under their noses
that they're walking to a house that is
smack in the middle of downtown because
it's a stone's throw from the Kaaba you
literally are attached to the basically
the area of the house right and so right
before the time they go into an alley
and there's the house right there and so
when they walk out it's as if people are
going to think they're coming from the
harem or they're walking the walk into
the house so it's a location or an area
that it would be very easy to explain
why you're going in that direction and
coming back from that direction and why
there's so many people coming and going
basically around the cab because they
would do that every day anyway and in
fact they would probably we don't know
this for sure but we could assume they
would probably make sure they even went
to the harem after they went out of the
house and then come back so that they
actually were physically in the album as
well for a while and so no suspicions
are raised right and there is no doubt
as well and this we can infer from the
sources we don't again we have to when
it comes to these Seattle reports you
need to be a little bit more analytical
and thinking you cannot just you just
read it at a superficial level there
must have been a very common-sense
reason and that is his house must have
been large as well right because we had
at least at least 40 people congregating
in the house and
40 is a large number Formica large
number so for 40 people to be in a room
clearly means that the house of outcome
was a relatively larger house as well
okay and it is and of course the house
of outcome this is where Amara vinyasa
accepted Islam this is where saheba Rumi
accepted Islam this is where America
table accepted Islam remember the story
of our motto we're going to come to that
next Wednesday when uh when ha Bob
brought him when he was going to kill
his sister
Fatima right and then he repented change
his mind and so when he made sure that
he's sincere kabab brought him to a
locums house and he gave the code word
because there was you needed a code word
to get it and he gave the code word and
a lot of come stared at him who have you
brought here how could you bring her
home with a blue hot tub I mean have you
lost your mind
right so he's bringing Omar to the house
of a lot of comp right and he explains
him know there's a reason let me speak
to the Prophet SAW Sarah and they bring
her more in and and he accepts system
right so all of this is happening in the
house of an outcome this is basically
growth as the the central station of
where the profit system was and when you
look at the reasons why this house was
chosen once again you find a lot of
wisdoms and you find clearly the profit
system obviously was highly into the
most intelligent human being ever is not
just choosing any random house there's
reasons why even this house is being
chosen the next major incident that is
narrated in the serie is the first
immigration to Abyssinia the first
immigration to Abyssinia when these
tactics of open intimidation of
humiliation of torture continued the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa seldom
eventually suggested this to the Sahaba
that this land has become too
constricted for you why don't you
emigrate for those of you who want to
why don't you emigrate to the
neighboring land of Abyssinia for there
is a Christian king there who is a just
king and he shall allow you to worship
without interfering in your worship and
then
announcement was made in Rajab in the
fifth year of the Dawa so the third year
of the dower he goes public less than a
year and a half later so you can imagine
now all of this torture we're talking
about is happening in this year and a
half all of this hardship is happening
in this year now
it gets so difficult in Rajab of the
fifth year of the Dawa this is still six
bh6 before Hydra don't get confused
don't think five aah no this is five
after that WA which is not anything in
our calendar so you say six before
Hitler because we have or actually seven
before Hitler because the Hitler is in
the twelfth thirteenth year of the Dawa
right you guys following this right
there are ten years in Mutko to be more
precise twelve years in some months in
mecca and so this is around 7bh you can
say before the hedgerow so in the fifth
year of the Darwin the month of rajab
the prophecies Adam allows the Sahaba to
emigrate to Abyssinia now for most of us
dare I say all of us in this room we
will not understand what hardships this
would mean to emigrate to a new land
especially us here in America we are so
used to traveling from city to city in
place to place most of us in this room
most of us have lived in multiple cities
in our lives
I myself have lived in four or five
cities for years at times and were
complete natural to us because the world
has changed immensely from in this time
so we don't understand that uprooting
yourself from you know in even a hundred
years ago the bulk of mankind I think
the estimate of a December was ninety
something percent they were they were
born and they lived and they died within
20 miles of the radius of where they
were born of their father's house this
is the bulk of mankind that that's just
the way it is you take over what your
father is doing and you live the local
light on you and you go on and enjoy
hayley maka it was much more worse than
this
you couldn't even emigrate to another
city because as we said the whole
concept of tribalism as a karashi you
had to be linked to Mecca
that was your only way of survival if
you want to even thought if
or Medina the people there are not of
your tribe and you are second third
class you don't have any reason you can
be plundered raped looted anything could
happen nobody's going to protect you
because there is no government there is
no law there is no society there is no
civilization this is even within Arabia
imagine going to a foreign land on top
of that you don't have bank transfers
you're not going to take your wealth and
then you know wire it to the different
land No
your property is your property you can't
sell it at market price because you're
not telling anybody you're leaving
people are just going to take over it
one day when they perform the actual
Asia to Medina the Sahaba suffered a
huge financial loss even Sahaba who were
rich became poor in the migration
because they couldn't take their money
with them it's too dangerous to carry
your your gold and silver with you you
can't just carry it in a unarmed guard
fleeing for your life and property from
Mecca and so when you're making heed or
what you're doing is you are entering
into a strange world where you don't
have honor you don't have protection you
don't have a passport basically and you
are at the mercy of those around you to
make matters worse they are they have
been told to go to a land where you're
not even speaking Arabic where the
people are not Arabs it's a different
culture to land in Africa in modern-day
Abyssinia Habashi
where the the culture the people
everything is different so this
underscores how difficult Mecca would
have been for them to prefer going to
Abyssinia over remaining in Makkah and
therefore when the prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa seldom gave this command 15
people emigrated 11 men and four women
eleven men and four women amongst them
the first to migrate was might have
enough fun and hearth might have been I
found was married to who was he married
to well yeah the daughter of the
prophets of the law and he was seldom
and so the first couple to migrate were
the
systems own son-in-law and his daughter
and he was followed by earth man eben
maroon another famous Sahabi
and Abdul Rahman even out the famous
Sahabi whom we're all familiar with
zubeida bland Alam Masada bento made
whose was the one who was made sure
hidden madolora this is almost hardly
been homemade I will sell him and his
wife only Salama right Abu Salim ax
would be the first hobby to die in
Abyssinia and omus animal would be left
all alone without any support she's cut
off from her relatives in Mecca and now
her husband has died in a strange in
foreign land and she was under a lot of
trauma it was a complete stress for her
that she is literally cut off and so out
of mercy to her the profitsystem sent a
proposal to Amazon we're going to talk
about that later on
so my cinema was actually proposed to
because her husband had passed away in
in Abyssinia and a number of other
Sahaba
so there is 11 men and four women now it
is unclear whether they all of them
secretly emigrated or was it known that
they would emigrate some reports seem to
indicate that they left secretly and
they made their way to Judah which is
now called Jeddah they made the way to
the modern port of Jeddah and then from
Jeddah they took a ship to Abyssinia
other reports seem to suggest that the
news was spread amongst the Quraysh and
if this is true then there's nothing
strange about that because imagine at
this point in time the Quraysh are not
expecting them to immigrate and if the
news has spread that they're immigrating
because the Quraysh have not there's no
reason why they would have stopped them
at this stage later on they will but if
the news was public it's not it's not
impossible it could also be the case
that it was made public and there is one
report in October on ease and margin
which is one of the books of hadith that
seems to suggest that the news was made
public and it is an interesting story
because it involves a little table and
it shows the side of him that we're
gonna see later on and it involves one
of the couples emigrating there was only
four couples right for women so there
was only four couples and the rest were
all single males such as Earth
mandibular goon is not
married at this time Messiah Oh maid was
never married he died a bachelor so
these were all unmarried men so there
were four couples one of these couples
one of these couples was a Madiba Rabia
and his wife Leila I made him the Rabia
and his wife Leila so in this book of
hadeeth Mohammed of Rani it is narrated
that Leila was made packing her bags for
Abyssinia and loading the camel so this
clearly means that she's doing it in
public loading the camel and taking
whatever she can to the port of Judah
and remote abdel fattah passes by and
sees that they're traveling you don't
load a camel you packing your bags or
putting it and so he asks who are you
traveling to I mean this is not the
season of lettuce she thought it was
safe or what traveling is a big deal for
them it's not like hi-hi travel every
week somewhere every two weeks traveling
is a very big deal for them
I know were you traveling - what is this
traveling for and you can imagine she's
so irritated and so angry she's leaving
her homeland and she you know she's you
know packing always makes you irritated
anyway you know and so she just barks
out at him and complete anger this is
all because of you it's all because of
you and you're terrorizing of us and
your persecution of us just because we
want to worship Allah because of your
persecution we have to go somewhere else
and find a lad or we can worship a lion
so she basically snapped at him instead
of getting angry Roma seemed to for the
first time she saw in his eyes
compassion and he said to her as the
matter reached that level meaning I
never thought it was that bad we're just
torturing bit out on the streets I never
thought is that bad
you know we killed my mother yes I did
so I never thought it was that bad so
he's not think he's like has the matter
reached that level and then he said may
Allah be with you next to offer and he
walks on his way so she's completely
flabbergasted that she sees a side of
Omar that they have never seen before so
when her husband army terminal Rabi out
comes home she excitedly tells him guess
what happened or what a hot dog came by
and you know he actually had some
compassion
her husband snorted and contempt and he
said do you really think that he's going
to be merciful to us and accept Islam
well llahi the donkey's of his father's
house would embrace Islam before he does
hey mouth we'll wait in a pub right the
donkey's of his father's house will
embrace his lamb before I would have no
hot dog does right now
subhanAllah what happened within two
years remember kebab is a Muslim and
some challah what this shows us really
is that our maternal hot table as we all
know this he had an outer
hardness but inside he was a very soft
man he had an outer strictness sternness
but even in this stage inside and the
same we see it in his shot him as
incident right he raises his hand and he
hits his own sister as soon as she
bleeds what happens we're gonna talk
about this next week I'm jumping the gun
but you understand you all know the
story right he has an inner softness in
him that we expect from a good person
and especially from one of the best
Sahaba
and it also shows that indeed Allah will
guide whomever he wills and he the
Sahaba never expected her to be a Muslim
and he the enemy utters a phrase which
she is forgiven for but any he's so like
you really think this guy's going to
embrace Islam you know as we say in
English pigs will fly you know how
hole-free is over you know he just says
this was like come on Gabriel
but Allah knows so this also shows us
that we should never ever condemn people
to help we should never do we don't take
the diss not our job you know we leave
it to a lot of Allah knows who who will
be guided Allah knows and so Oh miss
Allah my narrated first person is in
body Oh miss Adama said so began to live
in a good land with good neighbors and
we were safe
with regards to our religion and did not
fear any persecution now number of
points here notice that the immigrants
all of them look at the names that I
mentioned with my ribbon a fan with
Manny Ben Muldoon Messiah Divino may
Zubaz not debate but Abu Salim AB the
romantic now if in fact the way I want
me as he did migrate what's common about
all of them they're all Karachi's
they're all Cora she's there all high
status people right why couldn't the low
status immigrate new slaves there were
slaves we get there from I love my age
worries woo
say what I love I usually who same Yusuf
Ali okay okay haha
why were all of these from the noblemen
of the because the slaves didn't
have the political luxury to emigrate
right and this really shows us an
interesting point somehow Allah if you
think about it the people who needed to
immigrate the most couldn't do so Bilal
could not immigrate Tamar could not
immigrate even Massoud could not
immigrate kabab could not immigrate
right and the ones who were the most
elite was not even a fan I mean he was
he was the one they sent in her they be
here because they know the Quraysh loved
him so much they wouldn't dare hurt him
right
remember they'd be a ten years later
this is riff mad they know that he is
the most noble amongst them even almost
as yeah pursue Allah Janna you know me
the earth man has a better position in
with them right so the elite of the
Quraysh who are Muslim emigrate and this
shows us that span Allah I mean the fact
of the matter is that a person does have
to take care of himself and if these
people even though they're not as
persecuted as the rest but they have an
opportunity to have
less persecution they should take avail
themselves to the opportunity right
there's no point in them remaining and
being persecuted just because there are
other people who are being persecuted
worse than them you guys following this
point here there's an element of Y
wounded anomaly CO and physical take
care of yourselves and there's nothing
Una's lama Cubao tat that our prophet
system is telling those who have the
political capability go ahead and
immigrate right even though there were
people who needed to emigrate worse than
them but what are you gonna do so you
make the best of a bad situation and
this is in Arabic we there's a either a
maxim I'm always scared using the word
Farida because you know as a guide of
course means a legal maximum rule right
and that's where those guys called it
al-qaeda because it's the base right but
it we use the word cloud all the time
the funny joke is that when you teach
the kids the Quran what is the book that
they use huh it's like so expected
there's a joke that if somebody sent an
email that I need to teach my kid the
glider right and such was intercepted by
the FBI it caused a huge issue it's like
you're gonna teach your kids Qaeda is
like no the new Donnie I there's the
that's I live but I so we're teaching
them the alphabet so the point being
that there's a maximum fit that says
that you basically have to choose a
half-full bottle rain or the lesser of
the two evils you always have to go with
the lesser of the two evils you can't
save everybody
you can't does that mean that all of
them suffer well we will those who can
go can go let them go and let them have
a better life over there this also shows
and this is a very important point this
also shows that not all of the lands of
the non-muslims are the same some of the
lands of the non-muslims are peaceful
you can live there and worship Allah and
others are hostile Mecca and Abyssinia
were not the same lands Abyssinia was a
land they could emigrate to and live in
peacefully Mecca was not
and this is a very important point that
we especially need to extrapolate from
in our times but not all of the lands
are the same there are lands where
freedoms are guaranteed and there are
lands where people are persecuted and so
in our religion we have the clear-cut
political notion that there are certain
lands you are allowed to live in and you
should live in what is the condition you
have the freedom to worship Allah there
and if we have that freedom then we
remain law-abiding citizens of that land
and this is I have talked about this in
many lectures the the model of the
Abyssinian Muslims is a model that we
here in America can benefit from I'm not
saying it's exactly the same there's
nothing no two things are exactly the
same but I'm saying overall there is a
model and that model is what you live as
a minority in a majority non-muslim land
and you obey the laws of the land and
you understand that you are citizens you
are under the government of that land
and you don't intend to overthrow the
Constitution of the the the government
the Muslims Abyssinia were not plotting
and planning to overthrow Nana Joshi
were they right and they were not even
allowed to do this they were entering on
a visa basically the equivalent of a
visa and that visa allowed them to live
and worship and participate in the
community without any problems and
therefore this is a model that we here
in America can basically emulate a lot
of the extremists are on the vibe of
basically you cannot live in America it
is haram to live in America that is
their opinion in response we say the
Muslims were living in Abyssinia and
their goal in Abyssinia was nothing
other than the freedom to worship Allah
correct right they had no political
ambitions none
and they remained there for more than a
decade and this is interesting
the Muslims in Abyssinia way after
Medina was founded in fact not just more
than Nike they remained there for 14
years for 14 years seven years after the
hijra the Muslims were still in
Abyssinia it was only after the Battle
of Highbar that the Prophet SAW saw him
sent them a letter to Jaffa Jaffa did
not participate in but heard why because
he wasn't there
Jaffa was in Abyssinia taking care of
the Muslims over there only after the
Battle of high bar and that's in the
seventh year of the Hydra did the
Prophet SAW set him send them a letter
and tell them to come back and this
shows that there was a community of
believers even when there was a doubter
Islam in Medina there was a community of
believers living in Abyssinia even when
there is a fully functioning doubt on
Islam how about when there is no doubt
of Islam in our time and there is no
Halawa in our times how could it
possibly be wrong to live in a land
where we have the freedom to worship
allah subhana wa ta'ala in also notice
another point here a very interesting
point
the professor centum described Najah she
of course his name Najah she is not his
name Najah she is his title just like we
say the Caesar the Caesar is not the
name of one emperor is this title just
like we say the king of England it's the
king the Caesar the the the emperor of
persia is called host or the the emperor
of a of Abyssinia was called nagashi or
the Negus in english and then a joshi
his name actually was a seroma the
actual name of his was osteoma then a
Joshi was a Christian king and the
profitsystem said this is interesting he
is a just king why is he a just king
because he does not persecute his
subjects and he does not interfere in
their religion notice
allowing people the freedom to worship
is considered to be a just Kingdom now
there are some narrow-minded Muslims
amongst us who think that an Islamic
state is one and a utopic Islamic state
would be one in which all freedoms are
banned of religion you have to be a
Muslim and if you're not Muslim then you
have a million-in-one restrictions on
you our prophet's ism is praising a
christian king calling him a just king
why because you have the freedom to
worship now is it possible that a
Christian can be praised for this
freedom and yet our Shetty eye tells us
that we shouldn't have this freedom
think about me just ask you to think
about it is it possible that a Christian
king can be praised that he is a just
King he has a malik on a deal why
because he's not going to persecute you
for your faith the government the
government the Islamic government does
not have the right to ban other
religions live atomic would have an
ideal Islamic government if it even
exists and where of course it doesn't
exist exist I'm talking about this
utopic government that some of our more
narrow-minded overzealous youngsters
especially they dream about it's it's
it's it's not a real vision and
historically speaking we have always had
non-muslim minorities living in Muslim
lands always if that were not the case
10% of Egypt is still Coptic Christian
10% I mean do you think that for 14
centuries they have this freedom and it
is Una's la m'q to infringe on those
freedoms now no doubt that the laws were
slightly different there's no question
about that but in essence the government
cannot ban a religion it cannot and
scholars have differed does this apply
only to Judaism and Christianity or
other religions as well and the correct
type in it applies to any religion what
is the evidence for this when the
Muslims conquered Persia the
pranam only said Jews and Christians is
true he said that when the Muslims
conquered Persia the Persians were of
what religion their austrians parsy's
the austrians miju's right and so they
by unanimous consensus and the Madhu's
are fire worshippers they are not
allocated right by unanimous consensus
the Muslims accepted them as basically
similar to a Chanukah tab right and
therefore the correct opinion and ignore
any Tamia mentioned this is that this
applies to any religion even paganism
that and this is of course the Muslims
of India the molds of India they follow
this position right that even if you're
a pagan doesn't matter you were not
gonna we're not going to ban the
religion no doubt there are different
laws nobody's saying that you know you
cannot proselytize clearly yes we that
is look you cannot proselytize to your
faith but you cannot ban the religion
you have the right to worship in your
centers of worship and do in your
localities as you please and this is
something that the Islamic sharia
guarantees and this shows us that the
perception that many non-muslims have of
our religion and even some of our
overzealous Muslim brothers this is an
incorrect perception the fact of the
matter is we are guaranteed the freedom
to practice our faith whatever that
faith might be in an Islamic state and
the last point that will mention the
wisdoms of why Abyssinia was chosen
where I mentioned the number one wisdom
in the process I mention it the number
one wisdom suggests king it allows you
to freedom of worship number two
Abyssinia was familiar to the Quraysh
and to the Muslims because Abyssinia
they had some trade agreements they
would go and buy and purchase there and
so they had some type of contact it's
not as if he said go to China they have
some type of contact number three it's
easy passage you go to Judah which is
literally a two day day and a half walk
not too far right and then in the
relative scale of things it's
neighboring cities right and then from
Judah you take a ship to Abyssinia and
that ship is a five six seven hours
again so basically within two days you
could be an obviously it's a very short
distance it's not far away distance is
much closer than even Yemen
or Rome or any other places a very close
place number for that they are
Christians they're not pagans and
Christians are very close to us
in fact Allah says in the Quran lesser
than a shed the nasiha watt LED amma
know who a chef de nasi Adama who are
they alia who they were latina Shoku
wallet add you Dan acaba whom you're
gonna find the closest of the people my
what Dayton love to the Muslims right
the ones who have the most love for the
Muslims in Aladeen Iqaluit Nana sorrow
those who say we are the Christians the
followers of Jesus Christ right and so
generally speaking Christians have been
more tolerant and open-minded than many
of the other religions and that is why
this King of Abyssinia it is also said
by the way this is a we're never going
to find out for sure but there is a
theory there that this King he followed
a version of Christianity that was not
the common version of Christianity pause
here for a second
when Christmas is a very interesting
tangent but we don't have time only have
three minutes left I'm going to really
summarize this when Jesus Christ was
raised up we don't believe he died has
done the crosses you know when he was
raised up his followers and the people
around him were immersed in a huge
confusion what happened to him
where is he and within a generation the
question who came who is he what was he
and so one group and these were the real
disciples of Jesus Christ like Barnabas
and others they believed as we believe
that Jesus Christ was a prophet and
Messiah that he was a noble person that
he obeyed the law he was a follower of
the law of Musa another person came
along by the name of Paul as you know
and Paul had never met Jesus Christ he
ki what he pretends he claims to have
met him we think this is a lie but he
says he met him and Paul begins teaching
a version of Christianity which is a
completely different version that you
have to believe in the death and the
resurrection of Jesus Christ and most
importantly you have to believe that
Jesus Christ came to abrogate the law
you don't have to follow the law that's
why the Christians don't have a shady
eye they don't have a law the Jews do
have the hidaka and the kosher they
circumcise themselves right the
Christians for them these days version
of Christians they have no they have no
law even though Jesus Christ never ate
pork and Jesus Christ was circumcised
and Jesus Christ live the life of a Jew
but modern day Christians ignore this
and they say well Paul says that he has
basically abrogated a law and this
controversy continued for 300 years we
never had any equivalent in our religion
of who is God because the question is
who is God is Jesus Christ God or not
Jesus Christ the Son of God or not how
many gods are there some early
Christians believed or not said there
are two gods believe it or not there are
clear questions that's at 32 sometimes
there are three some said there's one
these are major questions and there was
a lot of controversy one group of
Christians remained firm modern-day
scholars called them Jewish Christians
or Messianic Jews that they considered
Jesus Christ to be the Messiah which is
what we believe right and these were the
real Muslims one group of Christians
were the Pauline Christians and they
said Jesus Christ is the son of God and
he abrogated the law and eventually Paul
never treat priests to Trinity by the
way eventually the Trinity was added to
this belief that there's three gods
there are three that rule in heaven
right you never find this anywhere in
the Old Testament again even in the New
Testament with a lot of difficulty you
find some references to this concept you
never find it in the words of Jesus
Christ to make a long story short so
Constantine the emperor comes along and
this isn't 3:21 he embraces Christianity
right and Constantine makes a huge
council called the Council of Nicaea and
he invites all the bishops of the
Christian world the first time ever that
all the bishops come together and you
have opposing factions some who say
there's one God some who say there's
three some who say is the son of God
some who say this and Constantine
basically makes a decree and that is
called the Creed the Nicene Creed and
this Creed the Nicene Creed says there
are three that rule in heaven but these
three are not three but they are one God
and there are three essences of the same
being 3 y/o sowwy of the sum of the same
being basically I'm not a Christian
theologians I want to go too deep into
this but basically 3 equals 1 in a very
simplistic manner right this is the
Nicene Creed now the main opponent of
the Nicene Creed at the meeting was a
man by the name of arias and after this
meeting constantine says he has to be
executed because obviously he doesn't
agree with this arias did not agree with
the trinity arias was the main opponent
of the Nicene Creed areas fled for his
life and he fled down south what is down
south somewhere well this is now the
theory this is the theory now and Allah
knows that he fled down and
the Nicene Creed spread to the official
Roman Empire and every single version of
Christianity afterwards there's three
main branches in our times Catholics
Protestants and Orthodox right and then
there are the modern ones a seventh-day
adventists and the Mormons and that but
the three classical branches Catholics
Protestant Orthodox they all go back to
the Nicene Creed those that are pre
Nicene Creed have all disappeared
there's not a single branch of
Christianity that is existent in our
times that was of the original pre
nicene creed Christianity's right but it
is legend that some small versions of it
survived in pockets this legend I
believe it and you should believe it
because it's mentioned in hadith we
mentioned some of these had the thermos
in mind in Farsi remember Somali Farsi
what was his story what did his priests
tell him I don't know of anybody left
upon my religion except that guy go to
him remember that story right and then
he goes and he goes until finally when
he means the last one what does that guy
say I don't know anybody left upon our
version of Christianity didn't he say
that right and that version of
Christianity was true Islam and
therefore there is a theory that also
managed ah she was influenced by arias
group and therefore when Islam came to
him that's why instantaneously What did
he say what did I what did the Josh you
say this comes from the same well as
Jesus Christ came from right
he instantaneously recognized it and
this is the theory that because areas
his influence was in that part of Africa
we know this for a fact perhaps some of
those influences remained and therefore
Najah she was influenced by that final
point Najah she's grave is a well-known
grave in Abyssinia it's still known to
this day where it was and sadly some
people have taken as a shrine but it's a
well-known grave and I know a number of
people that have been there and seen the
grave of nagashi
