Listen "Rights of Rasoolullahﷺ – 1"
Episode Synopsis
Auto-generated transcript:In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
We praise Him, we ask for His help, and we ask for His forgiveness.
And we believe in Him and we trust in Him.
And we seek refuge in Allah from the evil of our souls and from the evil of our hopes.
Whom Allah guides, there is no one who is misguided from Him.
And whosoever He guides, there is no one who is misguided from Him.
And we bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and that there is no partner for Him.
And we bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and His messenger.
May Allah send him the truth, the good news and the warning.
May Allah send him the truth, the good news and the warning.
May Allah send him the truth, the good news and the warning.
Parents have rights on us, children, employers, employees, the nation you live in, right?
The environment, everything has rights on us.
But the most important, the most critical rights on us are two,
and that is the rights of Allah and the rights of Rasulullah.
And the rights of Rasulullah.
It is the right of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
that only the right of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
that only He should be worshipped without partners
because only He is worthy of worship and He has no partners.
This is the right of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
And if anyone does not fulfill that right,
then this person will answer to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
for not fulfilling that right.
The rights of Rasulullah are seven.
One is adab wa ihtiram.
An attitude of utmost respect.
Respect and honour.
Two is itaat.
To obey Him without question.
Three is ittiba.
To follow Him and emulate Him in every way.
Four is muhabbah.
To love Him above all things and everyone else.
Five is the right of His Ahlul Bayt.
Six is his family.
To honour and respect.
Them when we honour and respect the Rasul .
Six is nusrat.
To help him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in every way
which means to help his deen and the propagation of his message.
And number seven is to accept his judgement in all matters
without any resistance either verbal or even in the heart.
And inshallah this Jumu'ah,
and inshallah this Jumu'ah,
and next Jumu'ah,
we will look at these rights.
Allah called the coming of the Messenger
even the sending of the Rasul
Allah called it his great favour on the Muslims.
Allah said
لَقَدْ مَنَّ اللَّهُ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِذْ بَعْسَ فِيهِمْ رَسُولًا مِّنْ أَنفُسِهِمْ
يَتْلُوْا عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتِهِ وَيُزَكِّهِمْ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةِ
وَإِن كَانُوا مِنْ قَوْلُهُ لَفِي طَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ
Allah said which means indeed
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala conferred a great favour on the believers
when He sent among them a Messenger Muhammad
صلى الله عليه وسلم
from among themselves
reciting unto them his ayat
which is the Quran
and purifying them
which is تَسْكِيَةُ النَّفْسِ وَتَرْبِيَةُ الْأَخْلَاكِ
internal and external purification
and instructing them
in the Kitab, the Quran
and Al-Hikmah
which is his Sunnah
while before that they had been
in clear and manifest error
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
drew our attention
to the Rasul ﷺ
and said
وَعَلَمُوا أَنَّا فِيكُمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ
لَوْ يُطِعُكُمْ فِي كَثِيرٍ مِّنَ الْأَمْرِ لَعَنِيْتُمْ
وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ حَبَّبَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْإِيمَانَ
وَزَّلْهُمْ مِنْهُمْ
وَزَيَّنَهُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ
وَكَرَّهَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْكُفْرَ وَالْفُسُوقَ وَالإِسْيَانَ
أُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْرَاشِدُونَ
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said
and know
take note of this fact
understand
and know
that among you
there is the Messenger of Allah
if he were to obey you
meaning that if he
cared for your opinions and desires
and if he spoke in a way
with the intention that he should please you
and he should attract you
and if he spoke the truth you will run away
sound familiar right
all of this is the pressure people put on Imams
don't speak the truth
speak in a way which will attract people
agree with people
if they do haram keep quiet
don't say it is haram
right
people do this all the time
either directly or indirectly
