indeed all Praises you to Allah we
praise Allah subhana wa tala we give
shook to Allah for the is that he
bestowed upon us by making us people who
are upon the path the man of the Sal and
in particular the manage of the
companions of the prophet sallallah
alaihi wasallam Allah be pleased with
them all and may Allah join us with them
because of our love for the sah with
them on and in see brother Subhan Allah
Allah subhana when he refers
to and when Allah subh refers to
the when Allah says they are the party
of Allah who will be you know the ones
who are the ones who are successful when
Allah refers
to when the prophet sallallah Ali was
referred to
when the prophet referred to all these
descriptions who are these people who
are who is Al because today part of the
FNA and part of the confusion especially
amongst the shabab is that they think
that the people just because they look a
certain way and dress a certain way and
speak certain language
that but there is a very important
Hadith of the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam
where the Prophet said my and this is
based on the verse
okay hold fast to the Rope of Allah do
not divide those who are holding on to
the Rope of Allah and those and as we
know this is the that Allah subh has
sent to the Prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam this is this is the inheritance
of the Prophet s wasam which is what is
the knowledge is the guidance is the
teaching is his
and those people who were most firm upon
that as we know are the sahaba so that's
why we have to make of the sahab very
simple you know because they are you
know the people who are from the way
of and we have to
oppose we have to oppose the people who
are heading towards the fire that's the
Hadith of the prophet he said 73
groups he described these FAS and
interestingly in the Hadith he says
before you for
the way of the Nations before you they
Hadas and unfortunately this um has
sects and groups that have divided and
splintered away these FAS have gone away
as we know from the clear path and just
to remind us you know that Hadith the
prophet he drew the Line in the Sand and
he drew many lines which went away from
it you know we have to remind ourselves
all the time of these Hadith because the
shabab are confused they
think are Isis to today and how and the
prophet said my um will not unite upon
the and upon the incorrect beliefs my
umah will not unite upon
misguidance and it is clear this group
is misguidance not just misguidance they
are from they have every single
characteristic and syat of of the
karage and when we say my um the prophet
s remember this Hadith when he says my
um will not unite upon misguidance he's
not referring to the Ordinary
People he is referring to the people of
knowledge and understanding because they
know okay what is guidance they know the
guidance from Allah subh they know the
and the they know the they know the
proof that Allah has sent whereas the
the ordinary people they don't even know
Al on many occasions leave alone the
matters of great significance such as
you know uh you know you know dealing
with what we call the current affairs
and the current events and situations
that are taking place so one of the
simple ways and this is where Allah subh
this is why Allah has honored us putting
upon putting us upon the of theah and
look what says
if you believe as they believed then
Allah T will you will be rightly guarded
if they reject it they will surely be in
clear Ascension Allah is sufficient for
you as a no so Allah says you
know this refers to the and so if he
believe like the and the r if you upon
this a upon this m then you will be
rightly guided but also it refers to the
companions of the Prophet sallallahu
alaihi wasallam if you believe like if
you have IM like they have IM if you
have the correct understanding the
correct understanding of theab and this
is very now very important you see what
is the Excellence why is Allah subh made
this
group why is it the prophet said that
regarding the 73 groups of this
um 72 are heading towards
Janam and the route they all begin in
the time of the Prophet sallallah alaihi
wasallam with what
Al they are the first group to split
away and therefore every thereafter has
theat of
the and in its fundamental mistake as
the prophet said they recite the Quran
it does not pass their lips they do not
have the understanding of the ayat of
Allah you see one of the clear proofs of
that is that look as he describ
the K they were the ones who were sh
witnessed the revelation of the ayat of
Allah and then as soon as the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam received this
Revelation as we know
okay he taught them the knowledge of the
of the Quran and the wisdom the Sunnah
associated with it so he explained this
to the companions you see the prophet
who does it when Allah
says we have revealed to you Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam this
so that you may explain it to the people
who is he explaining it to except the
sah and that's why we protect the is and
the honor of the sahaba these two
subjects go hand in hand because those
people who oppose the the
sah they are opposing the very
foundation of the Quran they are
attacking the Quran because they are the
ones to whom the Quran was revealed and
their knowledge of it is the best of any
other nation that there will ever be
because they witnessed the guidance and
they recorded it and they preserved it
and so when the jam of the Quran was
done how was it done except through the
narrations of the companions through
them like I said reciting the Quran
that's how when the compilation of the
Quran took place in at the time of abak
and was completed in the time
of then this is you know how it was done
so the people who attack this attack the
very Foundation of Islam because they
are not people who are versed in the
knowledge so now we go back on to the
current situation and there was another
clear indicator of the evil of this
group Isis and that how none of the
shabab can be misguided and that was the
killing of ABD rman casig this week may
Allah have mercy upon Him may Allah give
him the death of the Shahid inshallah
because he is the one who is a Muslim
brother he was a Muslim brother Subhan
Allah there was no doubt about his Islam
and his shahada and he was a person out
there helping the Muslims setting up
hospitals for them now you tell me
anywhere in the Shar where it is
permissible to take a one who is
non-combatant not fighting you helping
you and to execute them in this way
where is this in any foundation and then
when you ask
them the you know the these murderers
these killers when you ask them give us
the Sab give us the proof then they
start to twist the ayat of Allah so one
of the verses he says that you know this
verse do not kill the soul of one person
unless you have a
right they say we have a right to kill
him Subhan Allah and this is again twist
I said how they have and so we asked him
how do you have a right to kill this
person who has done nothing to you has
not attacked you not opposed you not
that any oppression to you not killed
you how have you are right they said
because therefore forces the enemies
have killed us then we have a right to
kill them now where is this in the Shar
we find this nowhere in terms of the
understanding of this verse anywhere in
the Sharia that you and in fact this is
the time of Jah before Islam came we
have the laws
onas the law on retribution IA an i if
they one kills you you can you have the
right to take a life of one who has
killed someone in your family etc etc so
we have we believe in a life for a life
but as we know the Shar is more
complicated you can also forgive the
person or you can also take the okay
compensation the blood money from them
as well so we believe in taking a life
or life but whose life the one who
killed is the one whose life is taken
that in the times of Jah what the people
would do is that when someone committed
a murder then the people would go and
attack the whole family and they would
take their retribution on
everyone okay and on the people who are
not respons ible for that killing this
is the time of J this is a time when
people were criminals and had no no okay
you know sh no rules and regulations to
live on Allah came us to remove us from
this
J so what we see in them why because
they have no and amongst them they have
no people who are versed in the Quran so
another thing regarding the ISIS group
that we said and made a demand from him
says bring your Scholars
bring the people who are giving you a a
a an approval a reference saying that
you are upon H where are the scholars
that you bring bring one single scholar
who is regarded as a from the that ising
from from the senior scholars in balad
Sham in the whole of this life where or
anywhere in the world so they bring a
big list of 50 Scholars and most of
these Scholars they are just when you
see this again the people they are
fooled because how do we know someone is
from this is a very important principle
where the shabab again are misguided
today unfortunately shabab are not
driven by knowledge braas principles
they are driven by emotion so they see
someone who looks and speaks a
particular way even in theith
of he mentioned look look what he
mentioned he says there will be people
who are the callers to the gates of
Hellfire that's what he said they are
calling to Janam they said they will
speak like you they will look like you
but they will be calling to
jahanam so how do we guard against this
and the way that we protect ourselves
and guide from this misguidance is how
that we have to stick to the and we have
to stick to and this is the safe way you
see Brothers being upon the way
of this of the prophet
very this is my Straight Path stick to
it do not follow the other paths the
other FAS who are going away from this
this he has ordered you so that you may
become now some people say oh we want to
follow the other ways they sound more
exciting they appeal to the emotion they
appeal to the
intellect but you see the intellect has
to be in accordance with the proof from
theab and the Sunnah otherwise is not
intellect it's a princi that the should
conform to the knck that the should be
in accordance with what Allah has
revealed not you think I think oh this
sounds good it appeals to my
intellectual understanding therefore no
these are the FAS which is going away
the safe way the guaranteed way for the
help of Allah the long way this is a
long way as well Brothers this is a hard
way this is a difficult this a way which
does not follow the desires
you want Safety and Security from Janam
you stick to the you stick to the way of
the companions you stick to the way of
the scholars people who have this
understanding so when we go back to this
verse you know that they make their own
t of this verse this is just like
when he went to who had rebelled against
mu thousands of them and he went to them
and he debated them and from the first
thing he said to them and this is the
thing you see amongst the the same thing
there shabab mainly shabab mainly young
people who are confused even our
teachers they used to say to us many
years ago that you they worried about us
because we were shabab that we were
Youth and they think that because the
youth do not connect with
the then you will become and this has
happened many times many Islamic
movements have made the same mistake
over the last 100 years 30 years 40
years we see the same thing in m
with the shabab they disconnect from the
and then they decide themselves to act
and the famous event when you know they
assassinated an sidat the Egyptian okay
president you know one of the jamat of
jihad they assassinated him and then
after this happened what happened is
that they clamped down even more they
bought even stricter conditions and they
stopped the da from happening likewise
we see many of the movements and this is
the FNA of Shan there's a FNA that Shan
he comes to the shabab and he tries to
push them push them push them okay
before they are ready and before they
have not just the the the strength in
terms of IM and ta but also the the
capability to do anything and the
Muslims don't have capability look at
this other fitt brothers that happened
this week and people are not me that
these people we don't know the full
story but these men that went into the
synagogue in
Jerusalem and killed the priests the
rabbis in the this is a crime this is
against our Dean we speak against this
we cannot say oh they went to
M because Allah
says the evil deed and the good deed are
not the same just because they did
something to us we cannot do something
and then there's another principle which
is about m
that we know that the people who go do
this for five of the of the the Jewish
people that have been killed there will
be 500 Palestinians that are killed we
know this 500 Palestinians that will be
killed so how is this something which is
beneficial and brings the is of Allah
and the honor of Allah you see the good
deed and the evil deed are not the same
and this is people who act and you know
without any wisdom or knowledge the then
there's also the position principle ofra
they don't have any capability to defend
themselves against Israel no
capability so why do you attack someone
who you have no capability to attack
yourself yes defend yourself because
Allah T has given you that right but
again not to go beyond the bounds not to
go to to be excessive to make okay you
know be in this matter so these is all
examples Brothers of the shabab acting
emotionally disc connecting themselves
from the and going to the which are
online so we ask the simple question of
Isis and all these where are your
Scholars where are your teachers where
are the ones who are giving you your
fatwa so they give a lift of 50 people
and in this 50 people the vast majority
of them are kunya so we don't even know
who they are what their identity is
where they studied who who have they
studied with they're just kunas
and then those people we know look at
the names that they put on this
list okay Abdullah Al alji from Jamaica
Abdullah Al fael as some of you know who
was the main supporter when he was here
in the UK and they kicked him out of of
Dar and was a person who only called to
and this is the religion the religion or
the the
of just to make people and also ABD Al
we know he not an Alim he's just someone
who studied at diploma
level then they also bring others names
like Unum chry how is UNAM chry an Alim
how does he compare to those people who
are studied 30 40 50 60 years memorize
Quran the Hadith okay are true people of
knowledge and
understanding so This Is How They
fooling the people because this is the
simplest Hadith that Allah will not my
um unite upon misguidance and incorrect
beliefs and those people those people
who are qualified are the this is what
is referred to just in the same way when
Allah he
says you are the best people raised up
for mankind he is referring to the
companions of the Prophet Sall alh he's
referring to the best of the people
because and their Excellence comes from
having knowledge and the action upon
this so they distort the ayat and they
twist it just look this is just as the
description of the prophet sallallah
alhi wasallam and there will come a
group of people they will recite the
Quran it will not pass their
lips you what does it mean if it doesn't
pass the list it does not go into the
heart it does not go into the brain they
do not understand the meaning of the
verse of Allah the ayat of Allah and as
a result he said they will apply the
verses on the upon the
and the reverses on the C upon the m so
they don't even have the understanding
to interpret correctly and the prophet
said they go out of Islam quicker than
the arrow goes through the game so this
is how he described this group of people
as the dogs of the Hellfire and we
should not be deceived this is why this
is for us is our Jihad and brothers by
fighting against Isis and speaking
against Isis we are actually protecting
the honor of the companions of the
prophet and the honor of
because these people are are a which is
going away from
the and if you don't speak against it
then you will find yourself affected by
this the there are so many verses the
verses that I mentioned the time is
short but first of all you know but most
importantly this verse and again in this
month now is now ending of muharam I
always do my in this month around upon
the Excellence of the
sah because they are the best of the
nation and we have to realize we attach
ourselves with the best umah not the
worst umah the best people not the worst
of the people and so therefore the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam said
okay and there are so many Hadith about
the companions of the Prophet that they
had the best hearts that they are the
ones who were and you look amongst them
the Excellence of the sah comes when you
see amongst them you see that they were
that the number of anduk that was
amongst them compared to the generations
that come after but one thing that all
of us are agreed upon regarding the
sahabah is that there was no amongst
them they did not innovate they
made they followed the example of the
Prophet s and were firm upon it there
was no splitting up amongst them they
were one
jam and in terms of the understanding of
the book of Allah there was no um more
Superior in their understanding of the
Quran so therefore if this is the
Excellence of the sahab it's very simple
for us if you believe like they believe
then you will be rightly guided so Allah
subhana waala and has described
them that Allah is pleased with them
they are pleased with Allah Allah has
entered them into Paradise the whole of
them the first of them to the last of
and the M every single one of them over
100,000 who were at the time of the of
the Prophet Allah has established the
excellent
so the sahaba is anyone who saw or heard
or was in the company of the Prophet
sallallah alaihi wasallam even if it be
for a second and died upon Iman this is
what is included in this group and we
love all of them and it is from Iman
that you love of the Prophet sallallahu
alaihi wasallam is love of the sah and
from that love of the sahab of course we
love that those sahab who are obviously
most in terms of those who were and from
our IM is that the best in this
after the prophet Sall alaihi wasallam
is
AB and then and then and then and then
the and then you know it goes on the an
and the m and those people who fought in
and those people who spent more time
with and we
love so this is again another lie
because from loving of the Prophet is to
love the family of the Prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam we love them
we honor them but we do not make Hulu we
do not go to the extreme in terms of
this love of them and so when the sahaba
are mentioned as we know our way is to
remain quiet to withhold you see there
is a this verse in the Quran where Allah
he describes imik said one who has a bad
feeling in his heart towards any
sahabi or in another example he said
there is a person he loves Abu Bakr and
om he loves them but he loves Ali more
than the
this is a person where IM Mal he said
this verse in the Quran Allah
says that the sahaba are described as
those people who Allah says
okay they are the Delight the one who
sowed the seeds who is the one who sld
the seeds that made the sahaba grow it
Isam so when the prophet saw his sahab
he was delighted
but when the kuf saw the sahab they were
angry so IM says one who has any ill
feeling in his heart towards the
sah then this verse applies to him
because he has anger towards them rather
than the happiness and the joy of seeing
them brothers in our time where the
internet and where all of these
influences fults she people who present
themselves as people of knowledge but
have no no suned no AA no permission to
teach no qualification they are just
celebrities who speak and they are
enticing the youth we need to return our
youth back to these fundamental
principles of going back to the best of
the people in terms of knowledge and
understanding and that our Scholars and
our teachers are only people who follow
this way and if we don't then we'll see
the confusion and conflict that we have
today and and and nothing as IM said
nothing will make is rectify the the
latter part the um except that which rep
rectified the former part of the umah so
nothing will bring the is of Allah
except that which brought the is of
Allah upon the first umah and made them
the best of the UMAS and as a Hass I
just finish with it he said nothing when
a group of shabab they came to him and
they said give us a fatwa we want to
fight against alh same thing today you
see this is the thing all the youth want
is fwa to do fight fight fight our man
and the man of the and the
every single Allah sent a messenger with
the words worship Allah and reject the
this is the way of theia to call to the
to and what are the groups calling to
today we don't even hear anyone calling
to the Oneness of Allah subhana wa tala
and correcting and rectifying the AA all
they are dealing with is the political
matters so just as in the time of Al
group of shab they said give us a we
want to fight they said says no he says
if this is the if this is theab of Allah
then no sword will remove the punishment
of
Allah and if this is the test of Allah
then have sa what beautiful words the
people said to alass they said oh you
are an old man they ignored him they
left him because they wanted to fight
because it was their desire to fight not
to follow the one who was the IM of the
time every single one of them fought
every single one of them was
killed no benefit came from them just as
today no benefit is coming from these
deviant groups who are fighting and
killing themselves and are really
criminal organizations no benefit is
coming from them and alassan he said
these are people who have acted like
when a thief comes into the house the
person goes straight for the sword you
see when a thief comes into your house
you just react you don't use your you
know your knowledge your understanding
you don't go to PE you just react to the
situation no benefit will come from it
the of Allah will only be lifted by what
pleases Allah subhana tala and that is
returning to the best of the de as Allah
says make us of those people
