 شكرا للمصطفى العالي for that beautiful recitation of the Holy Qur'an This part of the show is where we take extracts from daily du'as and ziyaras and supplications And try to set shed light on the wisdom behind these gems as we call them within the literature of the Ahl al-Bait And as ever, من زارا I'm always happy to welcome Ibrahim Al-Ansari on the show Ibrahim, السلام عليكم عليكم السلام ورحمة الله How's your morning going so far? الحمد الله, so far so good I guess we'll keep it lighthearted because it is the birth of the Imam Imam Al-Hadi, عليه السلام And on that note, we're actually going to be focusing on a certain extract from زيارة الجامعة That mentions Imam Al-Hadi, عليه السلام I believe You're going to shed light more about this So زيارة جامعة is actually a ziyara that was written by Imam Al-Hadi Oh brilliant, okay And it's called جامعة because it comes from the word جماعة in Arabic جامعة which means together جامعة is basically a زيارة which gathers every single infallible within the زيارة Brilliant And in fact, so before you ask me where do we recite this and why do we recite this In fact, it is in fact مستحب to recite in every shrine that you are In every زيارة that you want to, in any time that you want to perform زيارة It's مستحب to do the زيارة Especially that the Senate of this is very strong as well Okay To the extent where I know of a scholar who when visits Imam Al-Raza in مشهد Refuses to recite the زيارة of Imam Al-Raza And in fact, he recites زيارة الجامعة instead Right And he does so in every single shrine that he enters Except for the shrine of امير المؤمنين And Imam Al-Hussein, عليه السلام Because those two زيارة are authentic as well Of course All of them are authentic of course And the Senate is strong Yeah, yeah But this one is so strong and it just gathers all the معصومين together Where even in the meanings it has some philosophical meanings behind it It has some spiritual meanings behind it This specific extract that I chose In fact has a philosophical meaning behind it Which we won't go into too much depth in But of course we can shed some light on it So I'm quite interested to know The زيارة الجامعة Does it Does the entire زيارة Refer to the imams as a whole Or does it have little segments Where it speaks about each Imam So as a whole Sorry, as the whole زيارة It refers to all the imams But in some parts It will refer to specific imams as well Okay So the whole زيارة So for example just like A few episodes ago He talked about the زيارة on Monday Yeah So the whole زيارة It refers to both of them Right But then there's a specific part that I mentioned And another part specifically mentioned Yeah It is a similar strategy So you'll know who it's addressing By just the grammar of the words So for example if it will say Come will be all of you Or for example care Or علي care will be a specific person Specific person So we'll refer back to the name that was mentioned Before that word That word Okay And زيارة جامعة as a whole It will signify you Who it's talking about Of course So if in a specific part It's going to talk about a specific person It will mention But as a whole Let's say 98% of it It's actually speaking about most of them And it has such beautiful Amazing meanings behind it I'm sorry I'm really really interested in In the actual chronological Kind of order of the زيارة So does it Does it paint Like for example with دعاء ندب Yeah It paints a story Yeah In the beginning talks about the prophet's life And what happened And then he passed away And then I mean مؤمنين And how he passed away And then when I mean مؤمنين He passed away What happened to him And then and so on and so forth Yeah So is زيارة جامعة A sort of similar kind of storyline I wouldn't say it is similar In terms of that storyline But I would say it is similar In terms of how it brings everyone together Right And in terms of lessons Although the lessons Are not the same So for example in زيارة And sorry In دعاء ندب When we come to the lessons Given in it It talks about the status Of امير المؤمنين For example وقد قال عنه رسول الله This and this and this Yes yes yes Whereas over here Like I said It goes to More spiritual meanings Some philosophical meanings Behind the aspects Of these imams What are they What is their role Within the Ummah How did they live About their lives And with With how did they live About their lives I don't mean how They lived on a daily But I mean in terms of How they gave zakah How they How they أقام الصلاة How How etc So this is an excerpt Of the door How long is that Is the whole The زيارة is quite long It is a few pages This specific extract Is a very small extract Actually From the whole زيارة I'd say To recite the زيارة Will take Roughly 10 minutes maybe Oh If people are going Visiting Which is quite long For a زيارة Because زيارة are usually short زيارة tend to be Around 5 minutes maximum Correct Depends on how fast Depends on how fast You recite as well So do you mind just reciting So that we can get into You mentioned the Spatial philosophical Love to hear more about بأبي أنت مؤمي ونفسي وهلي ومالي ذكركم في الذاكرين واسمعكم في الاسمائي واجسادكم في الاجساد وارواحكم في الارواح وانفسكم في النفوس وآثاركم في الآثار وقبوركم في القبور فما أحلى أسماءكم وأكرم أمفسكم وعظم وعظم وعظم وعظم وعظم وعظم شأنكم وأجل خطركم وأوفا عهدكم وأصدق وعدكم كلامكم نور وأمركم رجد ووصيتكم التقوى وفعلكم الخير وعادتكم الإحسان وسجيتكم الكرم وشأنكم الحق وصدق وارفق وقولكم حكم وحت ورأكم وحلم وحزم إن ذكر الخير كنتم أولى إن ذكر الخير كنتم أولى وأصله وفرعه ومعدنه ومأواه ومنتهى ومنتهى الله مسلع على محمد وآلد محمد وآلد أنها جميعا جميعا إنها في الحقيقة جميعا حتى في حديث جميعا جميعا بسبب أن تقسيمك بشأنك، و لكني يجب أن التحديث الذي يجب أنه جميعا عن الأرض التسبق adv يجب أن يجب أن نحن باستخدامك. أماما الهديمين, when he says Your names are within the names. Your bodies are within the bodies. Your souls are within the souls. أعتقد أنه سيد علي الحائري أنه يتكلم عن هذا الزيار ويقول أنه الحقيقة الحقيقة من أسماءكم في الأسماء هو أنه لم يكن لديه أسماء فقط مثل أي أحد أن يكوننا أجسادكم في الأجساد يعني أن حياتك وحياتك وحياتك وحياتك وحياتك هو كيف حياتنا حياتك وحياتك هو كيف حياتنا كل شيء يبدو كيف أنه لا يكن لديه أحد لكن ما أحلى أسماءكم ما يبدو كيف حياتك أنه يتكلم عن كيف حياتك هذا يظهر حياتك وحياتك حياتك وحياتك وحياتكEveryone wants to see what we are doing and Micah and I would like to say where he reached up to or she of Fatima and look at where we're able to reach up to There is another site of that and other schools of thoughts are actually written at least رسمنا نحن يستطيع حيث يستخدمنا ما يتم إيجاب��نا ولكن يجب أن يكون أماما يجب أن يتم إيجابوين ويجب أن يتم إيجابوين يوجد قطع الخیل فعلا�ستي وهذا أفضل يوجد قطع الخیل وFranklin فأيجابوين يوجد قطع خیل في مشادلنا حتى جميعها كذلك حانما نعاق حتى أحبه كي أفضل من الدخل المسيحين، المطاوضى. لكن it's all about how gracious are the names, how noble are your souls, how superior are your affairs are. بقيف. I'd love to know why this particular ... X. how do you say it? What is it called? X. Is it X? Yeah. X. Okay, cool. I can always get stuck on the actual word. It's E... EX. EX. C. E. R. T. No. No. EX. في طريقة في which the Imam is making us relate to these great individuals. Then after that, after making us relate to them, he moves on to say فما أحلى أسماءكم وأكرم أنفسكم وعظم الشأنكم so he says how amazing you are in other words. Then he goes on to say كلامكم نور. Hey, he's giving us teachings. First he's saying relate to the Imam and then after you relate to the Imam, after you relate to these infallibles, let's look at these infallibles. What were the attributes? Why? So that we may take upon these attributes. كلامكم نور. وأمركم رجد ووصيةكم التقوى. So if you look at the translations, it talks about how your deeds are all good, your habits are charity, your nature is generosity, your issue is truth honesty. So these are the things that we should be trying to achieve, right? Exactly. So after we relate to the Imam, let's look at the attributes. What are we supposed to relate to? This is what we relate to. And in fact, it is full of teachings. The whole Ziyarah is full of teachings. But this one is let's say the most straightforward teachings. Once you've understood the first part, which I hope was explained accordingly. And then after that, it talks about how these are the attributes that you must aim for as well. And Imam Al-Hadi himself, he had many of these attributes. Imam Al-Hadi, in fact, many people, so since this is his birth, it's nice to mention him for a little bit. Imam Al-Hadi was such an amazing personality. And I don't know why, I feel like the more you go in the sequence of the Imams, the less they are talked about. So Imam Al-Hadi, we find him to be Imam No. 10. It's slowly, slowly people, I feel, go downhill until only Imam Mehdi, just because he's the Imam of our time. Whereas his stances during his lifetime were unbelievable. One of the best of stances, one of the most amazing stances he took was when he was taken to Samarra. And of course he was called Imam Al-Askari, not because he was in the army, but because the area was called Askar, so Askari relating to the area that he was in. The tyrant of the time, he was drunk on one of the days. And he says bring me the Imam. So they go and they break into the house of the Imam, they bring him. He says to him come closer to me. He gives him a glass of wine. The Imam licks at him and he says, This has never mixed with my blood or my flesh. So then the tyrant licks at him. He says, then recite me some poetry. The Imam licks at him and he says, Please excuse me from reciting poetry. I don't usually recite a lot. He insisted and insisted and insisted. After he insisted, the Imam, when they come to their poetry, unbelievable. He starts talking. He starts talking about how they were on such high statuses. And then he says They were of such high status, they think they were. And then they were left in a hole, which means the grave. And it is the worst of what they went down in. Because as we know the grave either becomes a garden of heaven or a hole from the holes of Hellfire. And then he carries on to say that as if a shout comes forward to say what are these people. Then the grave answers by opening up. This is the images that the Imam forms within the poetry. Then the grave opens up. Wow. The insects, they travel around it. And then he says So after how much they ate and now their faces are being eaten by the insects because of their deeds. So the image is that it shook the tyrant during the time. And of course it's his birth. So I don't want to get into detail. But this was one of the reasons why he was assassinated afterwards. And in fact that piece of poetry the images behind it if we were to bring it to any tyrant honestly any tyrant it would shake his throne even if he was just to read it. Not given by the Imam. So his dances were amazing. His lessons were amazing. And I think he should be taken as a great example for every single one of us. Fantastic, fantastic. A beautiful end to the episode. I thought I'd just make some notes to recap for the viewers. In terms of زيارة جامعة it basically means where it gathers all the Imams together. And it is recited in all of the shrines because of the Senate is quite strong. It's kind of recommended to recite in all of the shrines because the زيارة refers to all of the Imams. And in terms of the excerpt that you actually mentioned it refers to the Imams because being normal in the sense that they are born they have bodies and souls and graves and whatever but their virtues are of the high their names are of the high and the lessons that we can learn from their lives is basically in this زيارة in the sense that for example truth and honesty decisiveness your habits are charity your nature is generosity these are the kind of attributes that we should help align to and on the last bit it's the Imam Al-Hadi which was amazing amazingly put in the story of Imam Al-Hadi that was very nice he summarised I think I'm going to do that I'm going to summarise the points but yeah anything to add زيارة No absolutely not 10 out of 10 Beautiful Thank you Thank you so much We pray for a blessed day for your head and insha'Allah We will see you in the future mornings Keep us in your bars No زيارة will be joined by Brother Bilal for another segment of I believe it was called specialist yeah the specialist segment Join us after the break
