 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيمي الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وأشد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل وأشد أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد إن شاء الله وإتعالى ننتقل إلى مسألة مهمة ونذهب now to a very important matter We spoke about last lesson ترحيد الألوهية and we spoke that the first of we mentioned the importance of ترحيد الألوهية and then what we did was we mentioned what ترحيد الألوهية stands on we said it stands on two things the first thing it stands on is معنى الإله what does إله mean and which is لا إله إلا الله what does it mean and the perception to be correct لأن الحكم على شيء ونفرع عن تصوره for you to place a ruling on something first of we have to have correct perception of it then we said the second thing it stands on it was what وإفراد الله بالعبادة it's a single Allah in what? in عبادة and we dealt with that in our last lesson إن شاء الله تعالى we're now going to speak about what is it that will nullify our ترحيد الألوهية may Allah protect us from this what is it that which can nullify our ترحيد الألوهية as you can see on the board what's written on the top is نواقظ ترحيد الألوهية and that means the nullifiers and I said two things that are what can nullify it the first one is شرق الأكبر and the second one is شرق الأصغر and we'll speak about each and every one of them إن شاء الله تعالى شرق الأكبر is the first one we're going to start with شرق الأصغر we're going to first, inshallah, divide the people's إيمان into three أهل السنة والجماعة if you read books of إيمان like كتاب الإيمان by ابن منده رحمه الله تعظيم قدر الصلاح written by محمد نصر المروزي by ابن تيمي he has two he has كتاب الأوسط which is the شرح في حديثة جيبريل if you read the book written by أبو عبيد قاسم من السلام he has a book of كتاب الإيمان where he speaks about it الله المستعان على ما تصفون ابن منده I mentioned his كتاب الإيمان if you read the books of عقيد the books كتاب أصول إعتقاد إهل السنة والجماعة written by أبو قاسم مهبت الله إلا لكائي الحجة في بيان المحجر written by أبو قاسم تيمي كتب عقائد شرح السنة أصول السنة بوكس if you read them they all speak about what إيمان means and the definition of إيمان and what it stands on وراء أعيس أركان وراء أعيس أصول what is it that أهل السنة unanimously agree upon and etc and what are the groups that go against أهل السنة in the issue of إيمان شرك الأصغر is an issue that's related to إيمان when it's spoken about كفر شرك are always spoken about وراء أهل السنة don't forget mentioning it شرك الأصغر أكبر شرك الأكبر what it does is that it damages and it directly affects it directly affects the person's the person's توحيد أصل التوحيد أما أصل الإيمان so if a person comes with شرك الأكبر the asal of your إيمان will go now what does أصل الإيمان mean the iman is of these three components and all those books are referenced you'll find them in it the asal of the إيمان is the foundation if you don't have this you have no إيمان anymore you've left the religion it's like the human heart if it's your heart you're dead you're not going to live the asal of the إيمان is like that if it gets attacked you are gone شرك what it does is that it directly attacks the asal of the إيمان and so the person leaves the religion of Islam like that يخرج صاحبه عن الملا the person leaves the religion كماله الواجب the person doesn't leave the religion but what happens he's on a very very very serious situation right now we're scared for you we fear disbelief for you يخشى الله we're scared for you and that is like losing a body of heart can you die from it yes can you live from it yes it's like losing a body part it's not like your heart if you lose your arm you can still live but you are deficient and the كمال الواجب the كمال الواجب is that which your إيمان is is defected it is in a critical situation basically كمال المستحب is what is like losing your hair if you become bold you have no hair are you going to die no are you in a critical situation no but you lose your beauty right and that is what it takes away from you كمال المستحب لذلك these three as I said you find it in the books of Ahli Sunnah I mentioned and it's also taken directly from the statement of the messenger عليه الصلاة والسلام حديث حديث the حديث in which ألمان ملبي حقيب because of it he wrote a book about it حديث شعب الإيمان the Prophet ﷺ said الإيمان بضع وسبعون شعبة أعلاها قول لا إله إلا الله لا إله إلا الله is the أصل الإيمان is the foundation of your إيمان then the Prophet ﷺ وإماطط الأدع عن الطريق which is كمال المستحب taking harm of the earth as كمال المستحب if you don't do that you're missing out from the كمال المستحب and then the كمال الراجب is what والحياء من الإيمان and shyness is of the إيمان it's from the كمال الراجب it's from the كمال الراجب so Ahli Sunnah categorized into the three they took it from the حديث of the Prophet ﷺ now I explained what شرك الأكبر means it means or it is sorry anything that attacks أصل الإيمان and شرك أصغر is anything that attacks كمال الراجب and we'll talk about that إن شاء الله تعالى سون بإذن إلهي الكريم now but what is the definition what is the actual definition of شرك الأكبر what's the actual definition for it the definition is something that the messenger ﷺ defined our messenger defined it so then there's no need for anyone to come and to what to define it what did the messenger ﷺ define شرك الأكبر as based on the حليث سكدسو إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم the messenger was asked اي جنب أعظم was the greatest sin was that greatest sin and the messenger responded by saying أنتج على لله ميداً ووخلقك أنتج على لله ميداً ووخلقك it is to associate partners with Allah when he created you it is to associate partners with Allah تبارك وتعالى when he is the one who created you pay attention here anyone who associates partners with Allah he has fallen into what شرك الأكبر or that is what شرك الأكبر is so the definition is the first point that we are at brothers pay attention here and I want you to focus don't lose your focus here the first one is أنتج على is to make لله ميداً ووخلقك باستنحة الصحيحين that the prophet ﷺ said it is to associate partners with Allah is to make something equal to Allah now we are going to now move on to the second point which is give us an example give us an example of associating partners with Allah so the second point here is what does it mean an example of associate partners with Allah this is where it is very important to understand because examples they clarify things for you things that have ambiguity on it it is unclear to you you don't know what it means the minute إن شاء الله وتعالى we place we give an example it will become crystal clear for you إن شاء الله وتعالى associating partners with Allah it occurs from one of two ways I want you to know this إن شاء الله وتعالى two things the first one is دعاء عبادة and the second one is دعاء مسألة دعاء عبادة or دعاء مسألة what do they both mean these are the example إن شاء الله وتعالى let me explain it for you دعاء عبادة is every act of worship every act of worship and we already know what a worship is إن شاء الله وتعالى إن شاء الله وتعالى من الأقوال والأعمال الظاهرة والباطنة it is everything which Allah is pleased with it is everything which Allah تبارك وتعالى loves whether that be an action which is external or internal or whether it's a speech it doesn't matter we spoke about that before but you know what عبادة means دعاء عبادة it means because they both came together what it means is that every single worship that a person does is a دعاء عبادة for instance when I now pray صلاح this praying that I am doing it's عبادة but it's a دعاء how is it an عبادة and how is it a دعاء because why are you praying for my beloved brother and sister the reason why you went and you prayed دهر or فجر and then دهر and then عصر and then مغرب and then عشاد is because you're asking الله for جنة and you're seeking refuge from the Hellfire that's why you're doing that so every act of عبادة is a دعاء you're actually asking through your action for Allah تبارك وتعالى to take you to Jannah and through your action you're seeking refuge from the Hellfire that's why it's called دعاء عبادة the same as fasting why are you fasting for why are you going through this hardship of depriving yourself from food and drinking is because you want جنة through your action you're asking from Allah or Allah I want جنة by fasting or Allah تبارك وتعالى protect me from the Hellfire even your actions in and within itself this act of worship is a what you're asking through it جنة and you're seeking refuge from the Hellfire from it so that's why it's called دعاء عبادة can I divert any of those acts for anybody other than Allah can I pray to Allah other than Allah nope that's a shirk can I fast for anybody other than Allah nope that's a shirk can I for example for anybody other than Allah nope that's a shirk can I make an oath for anybody other than Allah nope that's a shirk and then those are all دعاء عبادة if you divert that for anybody other than if you give it to anybody other than Allah if you divert it from Allah and you give it to anybody other than Allah you are falling into what شرك الأكبر so the first example we're on this point right and we see that to example of it the first example was دعاء عبادة is that crystal clear with everybody does that make sense now we're going to swiftly move on to the second point إن شاء الله تعالى the second one is دعاء مسألة what does that mean what does دعاء مسألة actually mean دعاء مسألة it actually means and تسألة that you ask وتطلوب or you request شيء and something you actually are asking for it you are now actually are asking for it pay attention now this is of two types دعاء مسألة and دعاء عبادة it's of two types the first one was دعاء عبادة my beloved brothers and sisters did you see can you divert it for anybody other than Allah are you are you allowed to divert دعاء عبادة for anybody other than Allah is there any exceptions there's no exception all of دعاء عبادة you can't divert it for anybody for anybody other than الله تعالى as for دعاء مسألة there is permissibility and there is something that is not permissible so the first one is that which is جائز permissible and there is second which is غير جائز oh so it's not all prohibited no they are not all prohibited let's go into it now دعاء مسألة is the one that is permissible not all of them are shirk some of them are allowed to be دعاء عبادة for anybody other than Allah and there are those which are not allowed to be دعاء عبادة for anybody other than Allah the one that's allowed to be دعاء عبادة for anybody other than Allah there are conditions that it has to meet the first condition is what you have to ask of somebody who is what حي alive second حي حاغر it has to be present and the third one is what he has to be what he has to be قادر has to be able to do it for you for example for example somebody is dead and I'll go to the grave and I say to them give me this is what this is shirk أكبر it falls under the one that's shirk أكبر غير جائز it's not permissible inshallah we'll bring evidence and everything for it don't worry it's what it's shirk the Quran referred to this as what because Allah He told us لا يسمعوا دعاءهم these dead that you call it they can't hear your dua ولو سمعوا ماستجابوا لكم ويوم القيامة يكفورون بشرككم ولا ينبئواك ولا ينبئواك مثل خبير they can't hear your supplication they're dead gone they can't hear you in the sharia the dead can't hear and they can't and they can't help you ولو سمعوا ماستجابوا لكم even if they do here they can't ويوم القيامة يكفورون بشرككم ولا ينبئواك مثل خبير حي حتى بيا life are you with me brothers I'm not going off topic I don't want to go to details is do the dead here what's the issue of it what about the Hadith of عمر رضي الله عنه are you there of بئرو قوليبا when the professor went to the battle of bedar and he said to the people of the that's it we can have another time it's another issue this is مقدمة introduction yeah there's a book I would tell students to go to it's called في عدم السماع الأموات عند الحنيفية سادات written by محمد امير الصناعاني شخص الباني رحمه الله he has a a a a footnote on it go to that book go to that book and read it insha'Allah and the book written by محمد امير الصناعاني are you there brothers so the dead you can't ask how little the person has to be with you you're not allowed to ask anybody who's not with you I'm down here right now in London I'm not communicating with anybody I'm not calling anybody right now here I ask a brother can you get me this cup of water and he's not with me this is what the reason why these are by the way why are they what's the reason the reason pay attention stop writing insha'Allah stop writing the high I said is what is when he's alive right why is it that if you ask him it becomes because you believe he has you believe he runs this universe you're giving him ability that's not his you're saying he has you can do things is like you're saying he's hearing is all and that's only Allah's ability who can hear everything if he's not with you how does he hear this statement of yours Allah is the one who hears everything سبحانه وتعالى قد سمع الله Allah hears this his ability you've given that attribute to the creation last but not least which summarizes it all is that he's able to do it he's alive he's with you but you ask him for some things he can't do you say brother I want children brother can you send rain for us this is what this is what it is called شرك أكبر the one that's the one that's غير جائز is the opposite of that right which is what if he's not alive if he's not present with you or if he's not able to do so it's the opposite of that Allah سبحانه وتعالى he said in the Quran talking to us diverting this عبادة for anybody for other than Allah Allah clearly states this in the Quran so let's look at verses Allah says ولا تدعو من دون الله ما لا ينفعك ولا يضرك فإن فعلت فإنك إذا من الظالمين الله says what he commands the سبحانه وتعالى ولا تدعو do not supplicate do not ask of من دون الله بسيز الله ما لا ينفعك ولا يضرك فإن فعلت if you choose to do that فإنك إذا من الظالمين you are from the ظالمين this ظالمين here is because sometimes ظلم comes as minor and sometimes it comes as major this one means by the disbelievers it's the same one as الذين آمنوا ولم يلبسوا إيمانهم بظلم it's the same it means disbelief وصول الله تبارك وتعالى he says ومن يدعو من دون الله anybody who calls onto ومن يدعو anybody who calls onto مع الله إلها آخر لا برحان له به فإنما حسابه على فإنما حسابه عند ربي إنه لا يفلح إنه لا يفلح الكافيرون الله says anybody who calls onto who supplicates with الله تبارك وتعالى asks with الله تبارك وتعالى that which he has no evidence for he's always allowed you to do this what's going to happen to you فإنما حسابه عند ربي your punishment is with your Lord الله إنه لا يفلح الكافيرون the disbelievers are never going to find prosperity وصول الله تبارك وتعالى أن هذا آية ومن أظلوا من يدعو من دون الله من لا يستجيب له إلى يوم القيامة وهم عند عائهم غافلون وهم لا يفلح إثبارك وتعالى he says وإذا حشر الناس أعداء وكانوا بعبادته كافيرون these are verses that are clear to show that you can't supplicate to anybody other than Allah because الله is saying here ومن أظلوا who is more misguided ومن أظلوا من يدعو من دون الله من لا يستجيب له the one who can't hear him من لا يستجيب له the one that cannot hear him إلى يوم القيامة وهم and those وإذا حُشِر الناس وكالوا لهم أعداء and those you are asking if you get resurrected with them the day of judgment they are going to disbelieve in you you're going to be like no I've got nothing to do with you why were you asking before leave me alone that's what they will say to you the day of judgment so you're not allowed to divert it for anybody other than الله تبارك وتعالى الله also says to us ويعبدون من دون الله they worship besides Allah ما لا يضرهم ولا ينفعهم they worship that which will not benefit them no harm them الله also say سبحانه وتعالى قل أتنبئون أقول أتنبئون الله بما لا يعلموا في السماوات ولا في ولا في الارض سبحانه وتعالى عما يُشيكون now some people come up to you today and they'll say to you you know what listen yeah I actually don't believe I actually do not believe the the the person the man in the grave that I'm asking I don't believe he has any تصرفات I don't believe he runs anything no no no I don't you know why I'm asking him is because I'm a sinner I'm a wrong doer I'm a criminal I've gone against الله's commands I've disobeyed him many times I can't go to Allah directly no not at all just like a secretary has to get you through to the president you can't just run into the president's office is disrespectful so الله is the same can't go to him directly will say that مقالة that statement of yours والله is بنصها is that word for what that which the disbeliever says what did he say معنى عبدهم إلا ليقربونا إلى الله يزلفة we are not worshipping these are not worshipping them only except for one reason إلا ليقربونا إلى الله يزلفة so they can get as close to Allah they can get as close to Allah their response was what we are not worshipping the idols and wherever we worshipping the trees the sun the moon so those were worshipping those were worshipping the angels some of them worshipped angels they said that we were only worshipping wherever we worshipping for what reason يقربونا إلى الله يزلفة so they can get as close to Allah so this مقالة this statement is the مقالة and the statement of the تشابهات قلوبهم قد بينا لكم الآيات the statements have now become similar to the statement of what the disbelievers so once it should be very scared and cautious now somebody will come up to you and say are you right why what's the problem with me the problem is Allah permitted Allah permitted for us to do استغاثة استغاثة what's the difference استغاثة just means requesting asking but in the times of hardship it's just asking and requesting but it's the times of hardship does that make sense it's just when you're through going through distress and it's problems they'll say to you الله said in the قرآن about نبي الله موسى عليه السلام what did he do فاستغاثة so نبي الله موسى here what does he do موسى عليه السلام helps one man from over the other man does that make sense so they say فاستغاثة is what's being used in this verse the man asked موسى عليه السلام for help and موسى was out there and he helped him so استغاثة is permissible we'll say you use this example for something which you're not doing موسى was what حي حاظر and he asked for بما يقدر عليه that which he was able to do and that proves our point that's the kind of استغاثة and that's the kind of دعا مسألة that's permissible that the person you're calling to has to be alive he has to be there and he has to be what able to do it when you look at the قرآن you won't find anything other than that never will you find in the قرآن where استغاثة or دعا is being done to somebody who is not حي حاظر and بما يقدر عليه you will never find that and if anybody does please bring it forward to us anytime استغاثة or دعا or I said it's been used in a context where the person was present and he was so let's stick to the قرآن and guess what the قرآن refer to anything other than حي حاظر and بما يقدر عليه did he not? he did الله تبارك وتعالى he referred to it as شركة I just mentioned the ayah before ومن ما يدعو ومن أظل من ما يدعو من دون الله من لا يستجيب له إلى يوم القيامة وهم عندوا عائم غافرون وإذا حشر الناس وكانوا لهم عداء وكانوا بعبادتهم كافرون so we mentioned that very good that's crystal clear and the next one is غير جائزين which is the opposite to that which I mentioned so we now have the مثيلة don't we have the example now also what falls under this that I just wanted to mention as a very important point even though that falls under دعا عبادة and I mentioned it in there already which is the issue of slaughtering you see some people they slaughter for other than الله تبارك وتعالى now I want you to research this issue in a place where you can find it إن شاء الله وتعالى which is the issue of a guest is coming over to me a guest is coming over to me and I slaughter for them to give them food is that shirk is that shirk is that shirk I guess comes to my house and I make food for them and the reason why I cut this I slice this I slaughter this animal it's for my guest شغب العثيمين إن شرح ثلاثة الأصول شغب العثيمين إن شرح ثلاثة الأصول he speaks about it there رحمه الله رحمه تد واسعة but the difference is this you're doing it for the guest is not تقروبا you're not getting closer and you're not expecting enough غيبي from them you're not expecting an unseen benefit from them كريستوكلي the one you're getting closer to is who تقروبا إلى الله you're getting closer to Allah you're doing for this person for what to get closer to Allah تبارك وتعالى but if you slaughter تقروبا you know you do it تقروبا and you're expecting an unseen benefit from this person then it becomes what شرح أخبر this is important because Allah clearly says in the Quran فصل ليلي ربكة وانحر pray to your Lord and slaughter for him and also Allah تبارك وتعالى he says قل إن صلاتي ونسوكي ومحياية ومماتي لله رب العالمينة لا شريكة لن لا شريكة لن قل إن صلاتي ونسوكي my slaughtering ومحياية وماتي لله رب العالمينة قل إن صلاتي ونسوكي ونسوكي ونسوكي it's important that you read the Quran the Quran is crystal clear on these issues crystal clear we're now going to move on to the third point which is what causes it, a spell what are the fundamental causes of شرح أخبر why does it occur and how does it come into place it's very important that we take this on board because knowing the reasons that cause it is what allows you to stay away from it the first of it is what and it was the first reason why it was done and it's still the common reason why people do it today and it is it is going extreme on the righteous people the person who goes overboard with the righteous people and that was the first reason why the church took place on this earth وقالوا why were these 5 righteous men as Abdullah ibn Abbas mentioned in صحيح البخاري these 5 men were righteous men the people were extreme on them overboard with them are you with me so it is go extreme on the righteous people عبد الرحمن يحيى المعلمي إنه كتاب التنكيل بما فيه تقنيب الكوثري من الأباطيل عبد الرحمن يحيى المعلمي he's a great noble scholar from Yemen who resided in Makkah and he used to stay in مكتبتي الحرم he used to stay there مشالله he has works that are profound and fun especially this issue of عبادة العبودية كتابه رفو الاشتباه عن معنى العبادة والإله he speaks about the reality of عبادة عبادة عبادة والله يطالب عمش الفيديو that's amazing he also has another book written on حقيقة البدعة and he also has a refutation on who محمد زاهد الكوثري والهلك he has a refutation on him كوثري went and he spoke about a book written by خطيب البغدادي and he went extreme on Abu Hanifa because of Abu Hanifa love for Abu Hanifa passion for Abu Hanifa and no doubt Imam Abu Hanifa is Imam Imam no doubt about that and no one has put his level down لا شكة ولا ريب does that make sense but محمد زاهد الكوثري is love for Abu Hanifa as he says what did he do to him it made him insult Anas Ibn Malik Malik Ibn Anas شافعي 300 not 1, not 2, not 3 300 صالحين إما تسالف أصحاب رسول الله he destroyed them and insulted them and belittled them just so he can protect Abu Hanifa رحمه الله رحمة وزعا and if Abu Hanifa was alive he would never accept that from him because that's not the طريقة of Imam Abu Hanifa رحمه الله رحمة وزعا may Allah bestow his never ending mercy on to him now pay attention here الإمام عبد الحماية came years later and he refuted محمد زاهد الكوثري on this book of his he refuted him and when he refuted him عبد الحماية المعلمي he says وَإِنَّ مِنْ أَوْسَعِنْ أَوْدِيَةِ الْبَاطِلَةِ and he's mentioned in this point which is going extreme on the righteous people he said from one of the greatest valleys that people become destroyed and problems come is going extreme on the righteous people are you there brothers I beg you all I beg you all and I've read on you before right I have go to the Kitab أصاري ملمونكي في الردع على السبك by ابن عبدالهادي go to the book أصاري ملمونكي في الردع على السبك by ابن عبدالهادي please do this ابن عبدالهادي he talks about the issue of تعريم and the reality of it صحيح I read a statement on you some people say I'm honoring this person I am respecting them صح because I'm not in the Quran وَتُعَزِرُهُ وَتُوَقِرُهُ وَتُسبِّحُ بُقْرَةً وَأَصِيلًا وَتُوَقِرُهُ تَوْقِرُ النَّبِسَ I'm honoring the messenger I'm respecting the messenger we will say you've misunderstood the reality of respecting and honoring the prophet honoring the prophet does not involve taking him out of his position giving him the rights of Allah that's not to respecting the prophet does that make sense the prophet didn't like that he said don't go extreme on me as the Christians when I'm overboard with God they say don't go راضا الله تباركوا تعالى ودريسين القرآن يا أهل الكتاب لا تغلو في دينكم ولا تقولوا على الله غير الحق الله تباركوا تعالى يسل قد كفر الذين قالوا إن الله ثالث ثلاثة وما من إله إلا إلا إله واحد وإلا من ينتم عما يقولون لا يمسن لا يمسن الذين كفروا منهم عذابٌ أليم الله يا أهل الكتاب لا تغلو في دينكم لا تغلو في دينكم لا تابعك على قرآن لا تذهب على قرآن لا تفعل على قرآن عبدالهدر الحماء الله إنك كتاب أصاري من منكي فرد على السكي أخبرت عن الموضوع حقيقة تعظيم تفعيل خلاث تساعد خلاث متطلع بالقرآن لا تتعنى خلاث ونفتح من عبودي ونفتح أنه يساعد ونفتح ونفتح ونفتح ونفتح القولية of الله. Their rights is to place them where Allah places them. But the A'isha رضي الله تعالى عنها say we were commanded أن ننزل الناس منازله. We were commanded to place the people in their placing positions. Respecting a person means that you place them in their rightful position. You don't take them overboard and you don't take them below their rights. So you know the statement of Al-Bursiri. وإن من جودك الدنيا والضراتة ومن علومك علم اللوح والقلمي. This is extreme in the price of the Prophet. عليه الصلاة و السلام. And that's exactly as I said. وقالوا لا تدرن آله هتكم ولا تدرن ودن ولا سواعن ولا يغوثا ويعوقا ونصلا. Those were people who are saliheen. As Abdullah ibn Abbas he said. أسماء رجال صالحين. That's what the names of righteous men in Qominooh. When the people died they worship them. أصول الله تعالى He tells us the second thing. The second thing is It is honoring the graves of the righteous people. Another issue is too. The graves of the righteous people. The building and the construction of the graves. أحكام بناء القبور. This needs to be this. And insha'Allah تعالى I promise. I promise insha'Allah تعالى I'm going to be A lecture on the issue of The construction and how they should be built. It's something we need to know. Because the issue of the grave Is being taken as a The issue of the grave has become a Has become a path and a way إلى وقع في الشركة أكبر. They use this grave as a watch By placing a suraj and other things on it And then building it and constructing it. So insha'Allah تعالى we will بإذن الله الكريم سي. Because the Prophet of five days before he died What did he say? And may Allah's curse be upon the creatures and the Jews They took the graves of their Prophet's mischiefs. And the Prophet was scared. عليه الصلاة والسلام عائشة said that he will do the same thing to his grave. So he was warning against it. عليه الصلاة والسلام. And then And Was the early stages Also from those things that enter there Was what? The issue of تصاوير Pictures and stuff like that. Pictures making and drawing and whatnot. All of them Was a دريعة إلى الشركة الأكبر. We spoke about the espab right? Those two are not the only espab. They are not the only espab. There are many more. There are many more other espab That cause The occurrence and the happening of الشركة الأكبر. But those are The two most prominent. Now insha'Allah We're going to move on to the fourth Thing that we need to know about الشركة الأكبر Which is احكامه its rulings. What is the ruling Or the judgment The ruling on the person What happens to the person who comes with شركة الأكبر basically? What is it that happens to him? That person Is in hellfire forever Is in hellfire Because his friend Is in hellfire So he never comes out of it He never comes out of it God Almighty In the Qur'an Those who disbelieve From the people of the Book And the partners In hellfire They stay in hellfire forever They stay in hellfire forever They stay in hellfire forever They go to stay in the hellfire أولاكهم شر البرية So God Almighty says إن الذين كفروا من أهل الكتاب والمشركين في نار جهنمة أولاكهم شر البرية They are the worst of people The worst of people Because the word شر as we all know It is what على سيغة أفعل And the Hamza was dropped for what? بكثرة اتكرار صح So they are the worst of people And it's from the اسم التفضيل Very good The person is in hellfire forever And also the second thing is That صاحبه لا يدخل الجنة That the person will never enter جنة whatsoever And he is in hellfire forever Are you with me brothers? And remember when I say إِسَبْنُ مَرْيَمْ سَدْتُ His people would say إنهم يُشريك بالله If you associate partners with Allah فقد حرم الله علي الجنة Allah has made Jannah حرام from you ومأواهن نار And the hellfire is your final abode وما للظالمين من أمصار And there is no one to help you There is nobody to help you والله that's very scary And the hellfire is your final abode وما للظالمين من أمصار And there is no one to help you There is nobody to help you والله that's very scary And you love the ummah Are you very concerned about the people? Protect them from this punishment If you are family members you know are practicing things which are save them from it Because Allah clearly tells us that they are in the hellfire forever Number 3 صاحبه لا يُغفر له The person is not He's never forgiven He's never He's never forgiven الله تبارك وتعالى يقول إن الله لا يغفر أن يُشرك به ويغفر مادون ذلك ويغفر مادون ذلك لمن يشاهد الله تبارك وتعالى He forgives wherever he wishes after that ومن يُشرك بالله فقد افترى إثمن عظيمة Number 4 All of his actions يحبطوا جميع أحسنات صاحبه أن تأتي مع كلهم ويقوموا بعملهم لكن يتعاليه من غير يتوبه إذا كنت موتون بعملهم كل مستوى حقك مستوى حقيقية كل شيء أنك فعلت ويقوموا بعملهم وإن أنك يتم تعمل from it الله تبارك وتعالى يقول لو أشركوا ولحبط عنهم ما كانوا يعملون إذا كانوا تقوموا بعملهم ويقوموا بعملهم لا إن أشركت لا إن أشركت لا يحبطن عمله ولا تقول لنا من الخاصرين فعبود وكون من الشاكرين So the person who is partners with Allah لا يحبطن عمله All of your righteous deeds are going to be null and void الله is going to nullify it all of it Based on that my beloved brothers and sisters I wanted to say to all of you فإني أحذركم I warn you all من الشرك الأكبر من الشرك الأكبر Stay away from it Stay away from it لأن عاقبه وخيمة والله because its consequences are very severe ولا يمكنوا لأحد And no one is able to stay away from it unless what إلا بعد معرفة I'll let you know it You will not be able to stay away from this Unless you understand what شرك الأكبر is Unless you understand the real meaning of توحيد To stay away from something عرفتوا الشرر لا لشر ولكن لتوقي ومن لم يعرف الشر من الخير يقع فيه Do you want to protect yourself from an evil? Learn an evil No do it but learn it Understand it شرك is an evil Learn this evil so you can stay away from it لذلك this statement came from none other than the noble companion كان الناس يسألون رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عني الخير وكنت أسألوه عن الشر مخافة أن يودركني I used to ask about the evil And they would ask him for good I would go and I would ask him about the evil So I could stay away from it Also I didn't fall into it So my beloved brothers and sisters Stay away from شرك الأكبر And you will not be able to stay away from it Unless you what Unless you understand it Brothers If something cannot be done An obligatory act cannot be done Unless you do something else Then that something else becomes obligatory for you to do Does that make sense? وضوء is not obligatory Do I have to do وضوء right now? No, I've got the choice for you But if the salah comes in, does it become obligatory? And I don't have وضوء Do I have to do وضوء now? Why? Because of the salah is obligatory And you can't do the salah unless you are upon A state of the heart so it becomes obligatory now For you to stay away from شرك And to come with توحيد is obligatory Yes Can you stay away from توحيد Sorry, can you stay away from شرك And come with توحيد unless you know it You can't unless you know it right You have to know it And then knowing it, it is what فرضوعين on everybody Every single body has to know توحيد and understand it And every single body needs to know شرك In order to stay away from it We've now concluded and we finished إن شاء الله و تعالى The second, the first part Which is شرك الأكبر We have an understanding of it now حمد لله رب العالم Praise this to Allah And now we're going to move on to شرك الأسغر We're going to now move on to شرك الأسغر My beloved brothers and sisters We've now finished الحمد لله Praise this to Allah و تعالى We spoke about شرك الأكبر We defined it We gave an example for it We even mentioned the things That caused it for it to happen And we also gave the consequences For the individual who comes with شرك الأكبر May Allah protect us from it اللهم يا رب May Allah protect us from it And protect our loved ones from it الشرك الأسغر now We're going to move on to شرك الأسغر We're going to define it We're going to give an example for it And we're also going to mention The rulings of the one And the consequences of the one Who comes with it The reason why we're not going to mention The reason is because it's the same The أسباب is both the same They have the both They both have the same Root causes for it Okay The root causes are what? The same But these are the three that are different So insha'Allah تعالى We'll mention those three The first insha'Allah تعالى Is تعريفه What's the definition? So what's the definition of شرك الأسغر The definition of a شرك الأسغر is Whatever Right And I want you to understand this Whatever these two things Are present in it Is شرك الأسغر أكبر So شرك الأسغر Two things Has to be found in it In order for it to be شرك الأسغر For it to be شرك الأسغر And the definition of it Is The first one is ما سماه الشارع شركن The first one is ما سماه الشارع ما سماه ما سماه الشارع شركن Whatever The shari'a refers to as شرك Or anything like it Like كفر Or Anything like that That's it, no And also Because if we stick stop there Then it could also be what أكبر Because the shari'a refers to the major one as شرك right? It can't just be that The shari'a has to refer to it as a what And also it has to be what أن يكون وسيلة إلى أشرك أن يكون وسيلة إلى الشرك الأكبر Pay attention here now These are the two things that it has to be The first one is ما سماه الشارع الشركن أو معنى The shari'a has to refer to it as شرك Such as من حليفة بغير الله فقد أشرك Anybody Other than الله is what فقد أشرك That person has what He has done shirk Right? But we also know That الحلف بغير الله Is a what Is a وسيلة إلى الشرك الأكبر It's a means To a shرك الأكبر Does that make sense? It's a وسيلة Are you there? Also the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم He told us عليه الصلاة والسلام فقد أشرك The Prophet told us He has done shirk The person who تعلق تميمة Who connects a تميمة to himself Are you with me? A تميمة Are you with me brothers? This is what شرك الأصر Why أن يكون وسيلة إلى شرك الأكبر It means to a shرك الأكبر It's a what نعم So that's the definition of it As for an example I think I gave it to you right now I gave you And I gave you the issue of تميمة And I did speak about the issue of They call it The issue of تميمة Is that تميمة Is not a سبب شرعي Am I sick? For example I'm a sick patient Pay attention here I'm a sick patient I'm sick And what do I need? What do I need? I need For health and cure right? The way I can cure myself Is either through a what A سبب which is شرعي A legislation of Islamic Means such as Quran and اذكار and whatnot And things that the shari'a has prescribed Such as honey and whatnot This is a what? It's a cure based on what? The Quran and the sunnah The second step I can take To cure myself is a what? A means which is قدري مدكيلي has been proven Doctors have come to the conclusion That this is a cure Does that make sense? Pay attention Those two is the only way I can cure myself I can't cure myself If it's not شرعي Nor is it A rope Being tied to my arm How is that شرعي Because the shari'a Actually considered that to be And then how is it قدري Pay attention That this is going to make you This is شرعي And it's شرعي أصغر But it becomes شرعي أصغر Sorry It became شرعي أصغر Because of the shari'a Referring to it as شرعي And this is leading to what? شرعي أكبر It leads what? To شرعي أكبر Because the person who is wearing it Believes what? He believes that this is a means That is going to cure him Remove an evil eye from him And etc This is شرعي أصغر But what about if he actually believes You know what The cure in and within itself Is in what? He actually says You know what No It becomes what? Even the medication that you take The procedure more that you take That if you say what That this is the cure in and within itself This is شرعي أكبر This is a شرعي أكبر That's not now شرعي أصغر That we're talking about It became شرعي أكبر Does that make sense? Very good Now we're going to mention The last point أحكامه it's rulings The hook for it إن شاء الله تعالى The scholars differed upon This particular point That I'm going to mention Which is أحكامه And that is Is the person going to be In the house forever The reason why They differed upon this is because Pay attention The reason why They differed on this one Is because The ayat just mentioned Is شرك إنه من يشترك بالله يشترك بالله فقد حرم الله عليه الجنة وما أواه النار وما نظال منه من أنصار إن الله لا يغفر أن يشراك بي ويغفر مدون ذلك لمن يشاء إن الذين كفروا من أهل الكتاب والمشتركين في ناري جهنما أولائك ومشرروا البرية So all of these ayats I just mentioned is شرك So since this is Unrestricted It's referring to what شرك أكبر أن شرك أصغر as well So both of them Are the same When it comes to the day of judgment That the person Will stay in the hellfire Ever That's the opinion taken by Who? Sheikh or Islam Ibn Taymi عليه رحمة الله He took that opinion Whereas the majority And the overwhelming scholars They said no The person Will not stay in the hellfire Forever He would be in the hellfire For a period of time And they didn't deal with it As though it's A shirk called أكبر Crystal clear Very good As for the forgiveness It's the same إن الله لا يغفر عن يشرك بي ويغفروا مادونا ذلك لمن يشاء نعم Based on that Based on that My beloved brothers and sisters Based on that I want a noun إن شاء الله تعالى Tell you all That we have finished نواقظ تحيد الألوهية So we have managed To finish the what The six articles of faith Which one have we finished الإيمان و باللهي Believe in Him إن الله These six parts We have actually finished الإيمان و باللهي If somebody asks you What does it mean To believe in Allah Those six parts They cover it That's it الحمد لله We studied تحيد الألوهية ألوهية ألوهية ألوهية ألوهية ألوهية I've got one last point To conclude with And that is the relationship Between all of those تحيدs How are they related And how do they work together So علاقات أما علاقة بين الأقسام The relationship between these types How are they related Between what تحيد الألوهية ألوهية أنا لسمائي و سفات And it is as follows شاء الله تعالى And note this down The relationship between The three is as follows Every single of the Every single one of the two Which is ألوهية تحيد الألوهية تحيدو الأسمائي تحيدو الأسمائي they are names and attributes of Allah صحيح So الروبو بيه android الوهية And they are both من أسماء إلهي They are names from the names of Allah و تعالى Also, as the second one which is توحيد الربوبيا right توحيد الربوبيا فهو مستلزم لتوحيد الألوهية توحيد الربوبيا necessitates توحيد الألوهية Which is what? If you sing Allah in توحيد الربوبيا completely then you are contradicting yourself in not coming with توحيد الألوهية If you are saying Allah is the only creator Allah is the only sustainer Allah is the only provider then why don't you worship Him alone? It necessitates it مستلزم لتوحيد الألوهية As for توحيد الألوهية فهو متضمل لتوحيد الربوبيا توحيد الألوهية If you affirm it You have by default come with توحيد الربوبيا If you have توحيد الألوهية You have by default come with what? You have by default come with التوحيد الربوبيا Because every single person فكل من عبد الله Everybody who worships Allah لابد أن يكون قد أقرب ربوبيتي Anybody who worships Allah alone has to have affirm that Allah is the only creator the only sustainer the only provider That's the relationship between each and every one of them That is the علاقة بين أقسامي ثلاثة The three types of توحيد That we mention So there is what? تلازم They necessitate one another So it is obligatory On every single person to come with what? بتوحيد الربوبيا وتوحيد الألوهية وتوحيد الأسماء والصفات According to how we explained it Any mistakes And any shortcomings that I came with While I was speaking Then Know that it is from me and Shaytan And that Allah's message are totally free from it سبحانك اللهم بحمدك أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله أستغفرواك وأتوبوا إلي
