 فشرف بالشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيمي فالشيخ رحمه الله الشيخ محمد بن عبد الوهاب was harmed and even though they tried to harm him a lot الله سبحانه وتعالى he made his دعوة apparent and the da'a of the sheikh spread every place in two years in a couple of years more like you in a couple of years the sheikh's da'a it took over Diri'a and then from Diri'a it spread on over the majority of جزيرة العرب the sheikh died رحمه الله وتعالى when the year was 1206 and the majority of the Saudi Peninsula or the Arabian Peninsula was taken by the sheikh and his students the only place they didn't have control of was مكة مدينة every other place they took over because they entered into مكة مدينة and they took over بعد وفاة الشيخ when the sheikh died مكة مدينة they entered it after he died and that was when سعود ابن عبد العزيز ابن محمد بن سعود تكوفة he's the one who was able to take over مكة مدينة the sheikh رحمه الله from the effects and the benefits that came out of his da'a was that of course the عامة جزيرة العربية was taken over the majority of the Arabian Peninsula had now fallen under the banner of التوحيد the sheikh was destroyed fully eradicated also the sheikh رحمه الله he left behind students of knowledge طالبة العلم but even if he goes and he dies his message hasn't died and this is what he worked towards he left behind students of knowledge he left behind people who were carrying on the message that the sheikh was calling to now I'm going to categorize the people in regards to the da'a of sheikh محمد بن عبد الوهب the people in regards to the da'a of sheikh محمد بن عبد الوهب those who rejected his da'a are 3 times the first ones are the ignorant ones الخرافيونة من عوام الناس they're from the general mass they're from the lame people those who just blindly followed their forefathers those who basically repeat what their forefathers have said إنّا و جنّا أبّا أنا على أمّة و إنّا على أثاره مقتدون we have found our parents and our forefathers upon this so we're just going to tread on their path that's the kind of people you'll meet or stay away from محمد عبد الوهب this da'a and that's what many of us might find our parents being they're just from the juhal they're just copying and they're pasting what they heard from their forefathers the second group of people are a group that attributes themselves to knowledge they rejected and they refuted and debunked the da'a of the sheikh شيخ محمد عبد الوهب not because they are ignorant of it but they rejected it عناد و حسدهم they did this out of stubbornness and out of jealousy and envy for the sheikh a lot of them they knew that the sheikh was calling to the truth and that he was right when he was calling to but they were scared that the people will say to them لما لم تنقل هذه المنقبات if you guys know that he's right so why were you silent for all those years for that question will come to them so they're scared of it they knew that the people will say to them لم لم تخبرون why didn't you tell us about these things about شيخ why did you guys never tell us about بدا so what did they do they refuted the da'a of the sheikh and they became an obstacle in front of him and this is where many students of knowledge are like when you call to توحين سنة you fight with شيخ and بداع he knows he didn't do that job he knows he hasn't fulfilled that job so for no other reason he's your enemy because the people are going to look at him and say he saw this mistake he saw what was wrong he saw that why haven't you told us this so he's going to become your ألابدو عدايك from the greatest of your enemy he's your strong enemy your mortal enemy he wants you to go he wants you to die this is his goal this is his objective your existence doesn't please him are we all together but why is it that he hates you because he realized that he's دعوة سنة his دعوة is what fashion corrupt he hasn't worked he hasn't reached anywhere and the دعوة of the تحيد and the سنة look how it's growing it's just becoming stronger and stronger and stronger he knows that he could have done that but you know what his دعوة was his دعوة was to please the people so he wasn't telling the people about شيخ and بداع he was just pleasing the people he was telling the people what they want to hear but little did he know that if he told the people the truth that some of the people are going to take it that some people are in love with the truth if they see the truth be brought to them even if it goes against their desires some people are going to go with you the third type of people are بايفة عادة الشيخ بسم السياسة a group of people are those who showed enmity to the دعوة of the شيخ with the name of politics and these are the leaders of course and those in charge they showed hate towards the شيخ why? because they were told to this by their first of all the evil scholars that were around them the evil scholars around them were telling them this and were saying this to them and they were beautifying the battle for them and they were eating the people's these and even these leaders as well so they realized if the شيخ comes with his دعوة he might pull you guys away from the people and you guys may no longer be the leaders anymore and the people may not come to you guys so what did they do? so they showed enmity and hate to the شيخ and to his دعوة that's what the people are in regards to the شيخ's دعوة some of you may ask yourself and say okay question wasn't there at the time of the شيخ محمد عبداللهب and even before them when the other people were calling to ترحيل السنة where are they? and if there were others who were calling to ترحيل السنة why is it that only he seemed to be a parent and he became the أپحن the response to that question is first of all he was not the only person who called to ترحيل السنة there were other famous scholars who did from them is محمد عمير الصلاعين whose book we studied a couple of years ago his كتاب تطيروا الاعتقاد where he talks about purifying people's beliefs if you read that book he fights against شرق and he fights against خرافات أبدا عن بلالات محمد عمير الصلاعين he was a mu'ahid who was from Yemen from the scholars of Yemen also from the scholars from Yemen again is حسين النعمي رحمه الله was from the great scholars of Yemen as well he was also at the time of the شيخ رحمه الله تعالى okay he also was from the scholars who called to ترحيل he called to سنة fought against شرق and بلالات but there was a reason why their دعوة even that it was upon the same دعوة as the شيخ they didn't get in تشاح the دعوة didn't spread the first reason is the شيخ رحمه الله he received the شيخ رحمه الله the شيخ رحمه الله he received and he gained a people who give victory to his دعوة نعم so the شيخ رحمه الله he received aid and physical support this is a distinction between him and the دعوة of أمير الصلاعين محمد أمير الصلاعين and the دعوة of الإمام حسين النعم يا رحمه الله and شيخ رسلامي بلوتيمي he said something very powerful he said this religion doesn't stand إلا على كتابن except with a book يهدي دا قايد وسيف ينصف and a sword that gives victory to it and what the شيخ means بحمد البلوتيمي means by sword here is laws have to have if you go against it if you go for a red light right now it's not just if you go for a red light you can't go for a red light that's not all it is there's consequences the consequences here is what you get points on your license you also have to pay a fine so every law has to have somebody who's out there who's able to be executed so شيخ رسلامي بلوتيمي when he command the people things if he didn't do it or if he wasn't done those consequences his دعوة had consequences محمد أمير الصلاعاني didn't have that no did the second is عدم صبر كثير من هؤلاء الذين كان عنده majority of the people who were with these other أمير الصلاعاني and حسين نعمي they didn't show patience patience wasn't shown a lot of these people didn't show patience but شيخ رسلام محمد عبد الوهاب he showed patience on the harm of the people after everything that happened he showed patience even today when do you see a group of people who are doing تعوة إلى الله and you always find a group of people who pull out on them so I'm not part of this especially when the pressure comes and the heat comes they pull out they walk away they think that that's a better part like in المجد where عزة doesn't come to you like that أنا will come to you in enduring this pain that's coming this hardship that you've been put through the criticism and the name calling and the accusations that are being thrown at you to show patience their forbearance I promise you these people's accusations history may not even remember it it may not even be documented it may not even be mentioned do we know all of the people who harmed شيخ رسلام حالة الجهة the majority of us have to search deep the names of those people if you want to know who they are you struggle to find them if you do find them the reason is because Allah said in the Quran the phone the thing that doesn't benefit it will go what will benefit the people Allah said will remain the person who is beneficial for the people he will remain and the one person who is not beneficial for the people he may sometimes come up but he will go he will go and he will perish and he will no longer be mentioned no one will speak about him and no one will mention him so the patience and patience is what the شيخ showed and as you all know with patience and certainty comes what? leadership the patience and certainty with patience and certainty a person will reach leadership and that's from the Quran by the way Allah said in the Quran يهدون بأمرنا لما صدروا وكانوا باياتنا يقنون الله says we made them leaders but we made them leaders when they came with two characteristics when they were patient and when they showed certainty patience in all of the hardship that was thrown at them all of the calamities that they were afflicted with and they showed patience to it and also they showed patience and they showed certainty in the promises Allah has given them سبحانه وتعالى they believed Allah is going to give victory to the righteous people they knew إن نصر الله قريب من المحسينين that Allah's victory is close to the righteous one and the good doers they knew that this Quran held the good of this one and hereafter they knew the prosperity of every individual is connected in the Quran that certainty that he shows is Allah is going to give them a victory the third reason why many of these people who according to ترخيد they were they never reached far is because قلوب بعضهم some of them their knowledge was very weak the sheikh's knowledge was very vast a very strong and very grounded especially when it came to defending and deflecting the doubts that they brought these people bring doubts they won't just leave you to call to your توحيد and your sunnah they'll come out and what will they do what are they going to do they're going to make sure that they throw doubts and shubu had regarding your دعوة so sheikh al-Islām بحمل الله عبدالله what did he do he had answers for all the doubts that they brought he responded to all of it he wrote a whole كتاب that they were not able to respond to which is removing the doubts that they brought that's the whole book it's about the doubts that they opened on his book they read it he got which we're going to study which is a response and the debunking of the sheikh in their in their doubts إن شاء الله وإن تعالى we're now going to take lessons that we can benefit from the Bible from the sheikh what is it that we benefit from him بحمده عبدالله what we benefit from him is number one the da'wah of the sheikh the sheikh is calling is an example that shows us the correct way of bringing a da'wah or it's the correct way of bringing an Islamic Daulah an Islamic Government as we mentioned in the life of بحمده عبدالله that the da'wah doesn't start with perfecting the leaders no and not arguing with the leaders it doesn't rather it starts with speaking against sheikh and it starts with speaking against and the da'wah of the sheikh also didn't show us that it starts with speaking about politics and Parliament the sheikh's da'wah was built upon يصلاحي عقائد الناس correct in the people's عقيدة the people's religion honoring and venerating glorifying the book of Allah and the Sunnah honoring the evidences following the path of the self that is what Allah told us قال تعالى الله سبحانه وتعالى مريئ سورة محمد ايه 7 ايه اللين آمنوا those of you who believe انتنصر الله if you give victory to Allah نصركم الله will give victory to you guys ويثبت اقدامكم and Allah will make your foot grounded and solidified what does it mean giving victory to Allah it means following his Kitab following the Sunnah and hide up high his predecessors who also Allah said سورة حج ولينصر من الله ان الله لقوي وعزيز الله says in this verse الله is going to give victory to the one who gives victory to Allah's religion to Allah's book to the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ then Allah describes for us the characteristics of those who are going to attain victory الله tells us they are the ones they are the ones when we make them grounded on this earth أقاموا الصلاة they establish the prayer واتموا الزكان they give zakat وأمروا بالمعروف they call to the good ونهوا عن المكر and they prohibit the evil وليله عقبة الأمور and the final ending of everything وتعالى so what is the greatest أمر that the prophets came with أعظم ما أمر الله what is the greatest thing that Allah commanded what is the greatest thing that the prophets and the messengers called to what was the greatest good that they called to التوحيد what is the greatest evil that Allah prohibited and the messengers and the prophets so when the ayah says وَأمروا بالمعروف they call to the good they call to izwat التوحيد and they prohibited مكر what is the greatest form of مكر that a person needs to prohibit الشركة it is a shirk and this is what prophets and messengers warned against so the sheikh Allah he knew that وصلى الله عليه وسلم يقول الله makes a promise and an oath those who believe in Allah and have come with righteous actions لا يستخل فلنهم في الارض الله is going to make us governors of this earth الله is going to place authorities and control it to our hands كما استخل فلدين من قبلهم like he has done for those who came before us وَلَا يُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِيْنَهُمْ مُلَّذِرْطَبَالَهُمْ and then Allah سبحانه وتعالى is going to solidify them on the religion which he has become pleased for them وَلَا يُمَكِّنَهُمْ دِيْنَهُمْ مِنْبَعْدِ خَوْفِيمْ أَمْنَا and Allah is going to change for them the fear that they were in Allah is going to bring them safety from it what is it that is needed from them يَعْبُدُونَنِ they will worship me لا يُشِكُونَ بِشَيْئة and they don't associate partners with me الله is going to do all of that for you guys I will make you governors of this earth I will place authority in your hands I will make you guys grounded power and strength will be in your hands but يَعْبُدُونَنِ you're going to worship me alone you're going to worship me alone لا يُشِكُونَ بِشَيْئة and you're not going to associate partners with me this is called شَرْطُ تَمْكِين this is called شَرْطُ تَمْكِين the condition for what for Allah to make us grounded on this earth والاستخلاف الله is making us governors the condition for it is what sisters and brothers توحيد توحيد الله is singling Allah in worship وتطيير العتقال and perfecting عقيدة that is the first lesson that we take from حج عبد الله عليه وسلم the ummah will not be uplifted لا يتم النهوب the ummah will not be lifted لا يتم النهوب لا يتم النهوب the ummah will not be lifted and it will not be raised إلا عبر هذا الطريق except on this path of calling to توحيد and warning you guys شك الشيخ محمد عبد الوهاب الشيخ محمد عبد الوهاب if you guys read his his works you will realize that he even had distinct things that he surpassed even in brutemia things that he even surpassed in brutemia he even surpassed محمد العبد الوهاب and what is that is to follow with three things number one ابنو عبد الوهاب محمد العبد الوهاب he busied himself he busied himself with أصل الأصول محمد عبد الوهاب محمد العبد الوهاب and other man he talked about the أصول he made sure that he spoke about the أصول good whereas in brutemia you see him talk about أصول and he talks about فروح and ابنو قيم is the same محمد العبد الوهاب he gave all of his efforts all of his hard work just to us all of his efforts and when you put your effort into all of it in one thing you produce strength in that one thing the second is the sheikh works and his دعوة لم تكن خاصة للطالبة العين محمد العبد الوهاب his دعوة and his works are not written for students of knowledge he is written for the عبد الوهاب as well the general mass if you go to some of his books if you go to some of his you go to some of his works and some of his books محمد العبد الوهاب even speaks عمية he doesn't even speak the formal Arabic in some of his رسائل you mean he drops the language كالبة low for the people when he is speaking to them he talks to them in the language they understand some of his رسائل are not even in formal Arabic and this is him following what بليسان قوم به بليسان قوم به he is speaking to the people the language that they understand for example he will say يوم جانا جانا it means جانا and the sheikh will speak like that he will say يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم جانا and he will use that type of language which the people speak يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم الجانب يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم الجانب هناك편 أصحق هم grip and this is what is unique عنّ الحال عبد الهام number three is يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم جانا يوم جانا ارى انهعمه ارى انهعمه لا يوجد فتاة لهم ، فحمد عبدالهاب لكنه قمت بعمل مصر ، فرصة من ايليدا who supported and aided him in his دعوة. The second benefit that we take from the life of Muhammad عبدالهاب is the effect that knowledge has and the spreading of knowledge the way that it raises the ummah and we also learn in that same point in that same point we learn in that same point we learn the position that the scholar holds and the effect that العالم has sheikh Muhammad عبدالهاب did not have soldiers he did not have an army Muhammad عبدالهاب did not make a jama'a he didn't make a jama'a Muhammad عبدالهاب did not make a jama'a and he did not make ahzab a group and we say we're hisb this he didn't rather Muhammad عبدالهاب alone what he produced ahzab not one but ahzab haven't produced it ahzab haven't produced that groups sects haven't produced one man by himself and this shows us this position that a scholar by himself can do what he can be about and that we need to know if we want to be raised if we want to be if we want to go up that we will never go up without knowledge and scholars that's why Allah said in the Qur'an إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِ مَكَانَ أُمَّهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَلْلُونَ وَزَ أُمَّهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بَيْهِمْ سَاوْفَ وَزَ وَتْ وَزَ أُمَّهِ كَزِ مُزَ العالِمُ وَزَ النَّبِيِ مِنْ أَمْيَا إِلَّهِ تَعَالَهِ بَيْهِمْ سَاوْفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَشَيْخَ الْسُلامْ مَحَمَدِنْ لَعَبدالهَهَابِ هِيْ أَلْلونَ وَزَ أُمَّهِ يَحَادَ الْحُؤِ was like a whole nation with him in his own da'a by himself what he was producing رحمه الله ورحمة واسعة so we don't need a tanzimat groups we don't need that it's enough for us to everybody to spread to him i don't have to know every da'a that goes to da'a i don't need to know that it can be in any place of the world what will unite us is our da'a right sometimes the da'a they spend too much time meeting and sitting together and getting to know each other who are the three prominent scholars who are the three prominent scholars whose names always mentioned next to each other ibru baz ibru otheimin and sheikh nasir رحمه الله شيخ الباني do you think they met each other very often ibru otheimin and al bani only met each other twice their whole life they only met each other twice sheikh otheimin even when they asked him about al bani sheikh otheimin he said only met him twice it was very little al bani said i vaguely remember him when i met him رحمه الله they didn't have this long-term relationship where they talked and they called each other they conversed none of that every man from his town his village if he spreads to ibn sunnah that is what unites us both that's what brings us together we don't need to have an umbrella that we will go through because that organized projects and programs it weakens things what does it do it weakens things so we don't need that if you look at ibru otheimin رحمه الله did he make a group did ibru otheimin have an organization an organization an organization they didn't have that رحمه الله لا they didn't have no jama'a sheikh otheimin ibru otheimin he had no he had no jama'a ibru otheimin didn't no ibru otheimin ibru otheimin and others they didn't have that oh they were calling to us and they called us based upon the way they spoke the fourth benefit that we take from the biography of the sheikh is the importance of perfecting the people's iqeeda i'm starting with that giving that the first priority the sheikh did not discuss and argue and debate on matters that were sub-branches he focused on أصل الإسلام ومبانيه he visited himself with the foundations of islam and that which is built on he didn't go into خلافكي where do you put your hand can you move your finger should you go down on your knees first he didn't go into any of that the sheikh his argument was أصل الأصول لا إله إلا الله ولذلك الشيخ عبداللطيف ابن عبدالرحبان ابن محمد ابن عبدالوهاب he said وأما القتال فلم يقاتل الشيخ he said as for fighting he said the sheikh he did not fight إلا على أصل الإسلام he fought on the foundations of islam ولتزام ببانيه عبار and sticking and holding on to the fundamentals of this great religion ومن نقال عالم anyone who transmits from him أنه قاتل على غير دانيك that he fought on anything other than that فقد كدم وفترة he has lied and forged a statement against the sheikh so this is what the sheikh was making sure and called to and that has allowed him to be what? successful in his da'wah if you look at today الحزب الإخوان you look at حزب التبليغ you look at حزب التحريق and other than that do they give importance to this issue أصل الأصول do they give importance to ترحيد الله إلا الله والله they don't they don't give importance to that rather what they are more concerned about is the unity of the people's words and the people holding hands they were not in any way form or shape concerned about ترحيد of the كلمة الله إلا الله and the sunnah the fourth benefit that we take and the benefit that we derive from the sheikh's life is how it's important to be patient in knowledge and a da'wah and to be patient until you fulfill your goal وضفر في البطلو and you're patient until you attain what you want to attain والله you see people start da'wah projects you see people start calling to Allah SWT but they only do it for a year or two and after that they're tired they stop doing it الله says in the Quran يا هي واللدينا عمروا سبيروا those of you who believe be patient سبيروا وصابروا ورابطوا واتقوا الله لعلكم تفلحوا be patient there's no success except with patience the Prophet SAW ما أعطي أحد عطاء خير وأوسع من الصبري that a passer has not been given anything greater and move vast and then patience so the Sheikh رحمه الله he showed a lot of patience and through the patience and through patience the Sheikh رحمه الله the Sheikh رحمه الله he achieved a lot last but not least is the benefit that we take from it is that Allah can bring التمكين العزة نصر and He can bring victory and He can bring support and aid سبحانه وتعالى الله سبحانه وتعالى can give you victory بما ليس في حصمان الدعاة in places that we can never think of الله can bring victory in places that we will not assume in places that we thought it won't come from الله سبحانه وتعالى He can bring it and Muhammad is a prime example for that how Allah سبحانه وتعالى after Him leaving and walking away from His town His birth His place of birth Reina coming to a place where He doesn't know He doesn't know what to expect and what they're going to say to Him and He's walking He doesn't know where to go at that particular moment a lot of us would have thought that never would victory come like this when we can come from places we never thought and we never assumed that it never came to our minds because Allah سبحانه وتعالى He conditioned that we stick to His religion and that He's going to bring victory from that we all know the story of Hudaybiyah Surah Hudaybiyah and the treat of Hudaybiyah how Allah سبحانه وتعالى He referred to this as a fatah an opening when if you look at it from the apparent what was taking place in that moment it didn't look like it was an opening but it shows how little we know and how vast Allah's knowledge is and that Allah سبحانه وتعالى He brought victory for the believers سبحانه وتعالى I said before the fifth one was going to be the last one but this is going to be the last one the effect that the religion spreading its knowledge has in what it leaves behind and the people in which it produces this is something powerful محمد عبداله العام might have gone he might have left but he left of a dulya a lineage الى يوم الى هذا they're still alive they're still alive they're still alive الى يوم الى هذا they're knowledge is what we benefit from we read the شروحات and one of the best explanations of الشيخ صالح على الشيخ الشيخ عبدالعزيز the Mufti now الشيخ عبدالعزيز على الشيخ الشيخ محمد بن إبراهيم who's the grandfather of him who's the minister we have Hussein على الشيخ we have all of these grandchildren that have come from the sheikh before that and we have عبدالرحمان who's the grandson of the sheikh and we have عبداللطيف and we have محمد بن إبراهيم and we have عبدالعزيز and we have عبدالرحمان and we have these are prominent scholars who are still alive and الشيخ محمد بن إبراهيم was the Mufti before الشيخ بنباز these are from the what about the scholars that came from his madrasa the scholars that came from his madrasa like المان رحمه الله الشيخ عبدالعزيز بنباز الشيخ صالحة وزال الشيخ عبدالمحسل عبدال these are the scholars رحمان ورقفوري from India and حديث وعلا حواج الشيخ دعوة على مشارق الارضي على مشارق الارضي ومغاري بها the east and the west wherever you go in the world his books are taught and his works are studied anything which I have said that was wrong while speaking about the Bible the sheikh is from me he's a messenger of free from it سبحانك الله وبحمدك شكراً لله إلهي ببا أستغفرك واتولي
