 فشرف بالشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دادا دالا وياله من شراف عظيمي إن الحمد لله نحمده ونستعينه ونستغفره ونعود بالله من شرور أنفسنا ومن سيئات عمالنا من يهديه الله فلا مضللا ومن يضلل فلا هادي له وشد الله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وشد أن محمد عبده ورسوله يا أيها الذين آمنوا اتقوا الله حق تقاته ولا تموتن إلا وانتوا مسلمون يا أيها الناس اتقوا ربكم اللي خلقكم من نفس واحدة وخلق منها زوجها وبث منهما رجالا كثيرا ونساءا والتقوا الله الذي تساءلون به ولا رحام إن الله كان عليكم رقيبة يا أيها الذين آمنوا اتقوا الله وقولوا قولا سديدا يصلح لكم أعمالكم ويغفل لكم ذنوبكم ومن يطع الله ورسوله فقد فاز فوزا عظيما أما بعد فإن أصدق الحديث كتاب الله تعالى وخير الهدي هد يومحمد ابن عبد الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وشغل الأمور محدثاتها وكل محدثة بدعة وكل بدعة ضلالة وكل ضلالة في النار ما أبلاب with brothers and sisters The messenger صلى الله عليه وسلمه سرنا حريث In which إمام أحمد رحمه الله narrated in his Musnad من حريث عبد الله ابن عمر رضي الله تعالى عنه The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلمه سد بعثت بين يدي الساعة بالسيف حتى يعبد الله وحده لا شريك له وجعل رزقي تحت ضل رمح وجعل الزلة والصغار على من خالف أمر ومن تشبه بقوم فهو منهم The messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم That which concerns us from the Hadith is the last part The Hadith has many benefits in it But the bayt al-Qasid the point that I want to insha'Allah take benefit from is The Prophet said Humiliation is placed on the individual who opposes me ومن تشبه بقوم and anyone who imitates a group of people for verily he is from those people And this hadith shows us One of the reasons why the Muslim Ummah are enduring And they are going through the humiliation in which they are going through We have taken role models other than the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم Honor is in what following Allah and his messenger But what we have become is those who have taken role models Rappers Singers Actors Rather we have taken role models The lowest of people The lowest of the disbelievers So insha'Allah in this khutbah I want to explain And I want to allow you to understand the seriousness of this matter This hadith shows us That number one humiliation doesn't leave a group of people Who have opposed the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم And also the harm in which it has Imitating the disbelievers It gets rid of the most powerful concept of Which is The messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم he told us The highest branch of iman is It is to love for Allah سبحانه وتعالى And it is to also hate in the sake of Allah سبحانه وتعالى So when a person imitates the disbelievers This concept of It wears out and it goes When you look at the Quran and you point it on the prophets and the messengers The thing that you realize from each and every one of them Is that there is concept of With them The prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم As Allah told us in the Qur'an وتلو عليه من بقى اللوح إذ قال لقومه يا قومه إن كان كبر عليك وتذكير بآيات اله فعال الله توكلت فأجمع أمركم وشركاءكم ثم لا يكن أمركم عليكم خمة ثم مقضوا إلي ولا تنظرون The prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم لقد قلت لهم ، كما الله قلت ، أردوا لهم ستارة النوح عليه الصلاة والسلام إذا قال لقومي أن نوح ستكون الناس يا قومي الناس إذا أردت لك من الله إذا أردت لك من الله لقد قلت لك أنك أصبحت وقلت وردت لك فيزايا ثم فعل الله تتوكل لأيبوني وردت لله فأجمع أمركم وردت لكم وشراك أكم ومن الذين يريدون وفعلهم معكم ثم لا يكن وردت لا يأخذ الوحيد ونخفضوا غمه كما إبنه جليل الطبري وأردت لهم ونخفضوا ثم قضوا إلي ولا تنظرون ونخفضوا لأي أمر وردت لك ومن الله أنا خلال قراء براءة امما تعبو دون أنا خلق منك وعلى ما تفعل مع الله وقال why I've chosen this topic for Khutbah is Halloween is around the corner and also many Muslims are fully aware of Halloween and its reality and there are many Muslims who celebrate it also Christmas is not too far and nor is the new year celebration الليلة أإلهي المستقيمة و بأخيئة غرائية ستشثيل البلاد أو بادئة ربما اذا كم تشاهد لها مكتبهم سنهج برذاعة والمستقبل اذا كم تشاهد لها مكتبهم سنهج برذاnementهم اذا كم تشاهد لها مكتبهم سنهج برذاعة والمستقبل انه يضغط لك في هذه المخافرية기가 و لن ي�عم

الإنديوجل إذا كنت في مكان where the only person who was there was تكلفوا كده الصمالي ونفسك الصمالي وانتظروا ان You will see yourself automatically connecting and sitting with that individual when you're talking with a people, imitate a people it automatically becomes a love in their heart and this is a reality and my beloved brother and sister this topic that I am speaking about have given it importance and they wrote books on this topic alone أماني جل أمانشل 5 منهم إن شاء الله وتعالى إبنو تيميا فإنسلسي روة كتاب وهي كودت إقتضاء سراط المستقيمة لمخالفة أصحاب الجحيم الإمام الزهبي رحمه الله أثري بوك إن which he called it تشبيه الخسيس بأهل الخميس في الردي على المشركين في الردي على التشبه بالمشركين also الإمامه بالحجر العسقلاني وأثري بوك which he called it القول الثبت في حكم صومي يوم الثبت which is مفقود but some of the علمها have transmitted some information from it الشيخ محمد من عبد الوهاب he wrote his كتاب مسائل الجاهلية التي خالف فيها رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أهل الجاهلية الشيخ الإسلام أما العلامة محمد ناصر دينة ألباني when he talks about the conditions of the hijab for the woman in his كتاب جلباب المرأة المسلمة he also has a research in her where he talks about not imitating the disbelievers my beloved brothers and sisters الله سبحانه وتعالى has set a path for us and he told us to follow that path الله says in the Qur'an وأن هذا سراطي مستقيما فالتبعوه ولا تتبعوا السبل فتفرق بكم عن سبيله ذلك وصاكم به لعلكم تتقون الله has paved a path for us and he's commanded us to follow that path and not to sway away from that path but sad enough many people have chosen not to take that path الله says in another ayah ثم جعلناك على شريعة من الأمر فالتبعها ولا تتبعوه الذين لا يعلمون الله has made for you محمد a legislation restrain yourself within that legislation stay within it and do not follow the path of those who don't know الله also said نبي الله موسى أنهارون قد أجيب الدعوة كما your supplication has been accepted ولا تتبعان سبيل الذين لا يعلمون يجب أن يكونوا سبيلين ولا تتبعوه الذين لا يعلمون فالتبعين كانوا تتبعون وكانوا تتبعون to follow their guidance and to be upright and to stay away from the path of those who don't know but sad enough المسلمين لقد فتردوا not to follow that path and they followed a path other than it and our messenger already told us that they were going to do that صلى الله عليه وسلم he said in a hadith narrated by Bukhari and Musli من حديثة بسعيد للخذري the prophet said لا تتبعاننا some other but has also come regarding that سنانا من كان قبلكم you will follow the path of those who came before you شبرا بشب وذراعا بذراع you follow them handspan and armspan you follow them حتى لو دخلوا جحر ضبب even if they enter into a lizard hole لدخل تموه you will all enter it with them the companions they said اليهود ونصارا the Christians and the Jews the messenger then said فا من who else and half of them had over four pages in his فتح الباري he mentions this hadith with many benefits in it I now want to insha'Allah تعالى bring to you all some of the things that the Muslims have followed the disbeliever in the first one is and the prophet has already told us that the Muslims are going to follow the disbelievers in which is عودة البشرية إلى الجاهلية وعبادة الأوثان the people are going to go to worship in idols this is something that the prophet told us بخاري المسلم both narrated that the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said لا تقوموا الساعة the hour will not come حتى تطريب ألياتوا نساء روسين على ذي الخلصة the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم told us that the hour will not strike until the women on those will walk towards the direction of the idol of the people of those الخلصة was an idol that the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم commanded جرير ابن عبد الله رضي الله و تعالى عنه and many other companions he said go and destroy this idol this idol will be back again and the people will worship it how will that happen this is a question one needs to ask himself an idol that was clearly instructed by the messenger with his companions how can the people bring it back and how could they worship it and they are claiming Islam how could this happen it could only happen if the people step by step are imitating the disbelievers it will finally come to them worshipping this idol rather the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم he said in a hadith أليمان مسلم narrated in صحيح لا يدهبوا الليل والنهار the day and the night will not go حتى تعبدل لا تقوموا لا تقوموا وعزا will be worshipped the people will bring those idols that are clearly instructed in the Qur'an in which the prophet destroyed his companions destroyed the Muslims will bring back that idol again and they are going to worship it again the question is how can an idol the prophet destroyed and his companions destroyed it how could the people bring it back when the أثار المبووة the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم the thing that he left behind his religion perishes the sunnah and the ta'id goes and the people stop talking about ta'id on the pulpit it's no longer discussed the people will bring back اللات والعزا and it will be worshipped when in Asaf Al-Shadeed if you look at the work of the Muslims today you can see the way that the things are going and the direction in which it's heading the second thing my beloved brothers and sisters that the people have followed the disbelievers in شبرا بشبرا وذراعا بذراع is having the spirit of partinism having عصبية إلى قوم أو إلى مدهب أو إلى قبيلة a person has this عصبية he has a spirit of party towards a particular group whether that group be a tribe a methodology whatever it may be a person has partinism in it the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم he said ليس مننا he is not from amongst us من دع إلى عصبية he who sermons towards party spirit وليس مننا and it is not from amongst us من قاتل العصبية the person who fights for party spirit وليس مننا من ماتا and he is not from amongst us the one who dies upon that path and if you look at many people if he's tried his people and he's from anyone say something about it his face changes his face swollen but anything that's said about the religion he doesn't really care and it doesn't hurt him his anger his happiness is connected to his tribe and his people and his community more than it is for the religion and this is the thing that has been taken from the pre-islamic جاهلية and this is not from the act of al-Islam when Islam came it destroyed that concept when the companions stood up and they used a term which is found in the Qur'an and the sunnah مهاجرين and Ansar are شرعي times the Qur'an used it Allah used it but when the Sahabas used those times in a wrong way the Prophet said to them عليه الصلاة والسلام أبي دعوة الجاهلية وعلا بين أظهركم are you going to use a jahili term while I'm with you the term مهاجرين is not a jahili term and Ansar is not a jahili term but the usage and how one would use the term is jahili the honor of a person is not connected from the tribe he's from and the people he's from his honor is connected to his piety إن أكرامكم عند الله أتقاكم the most honorable one from amongst you is the person who has piety the person who is God fearing that is the person who is who is high in the eyes of Allah سبحانه وتعالى إذن my beloved brothers and sisters عصبية is أمر جاهلية it's a pre-islamic act which you're imitating the disbelievers with the other thing that the people are also coming with which is from the imitating of the kufar is تبرج النساء the women coming out of their households dressing adoring themselves placing makeup on their faces this is also an أمر الجاهلية الله سبحانه وتعالى ولا تبرجنا تبرج الجاهلية الأولى لا تأتي من your households or women ودعوك ونضع هذا المنزل على أنفسك ونضع لك كما تفضل المسلمين pre-islamic المسلمين يجب أن يفعل هذا تصدر إلى المستخدم إذا كان شخص يقول to a sister شخص ما you're doing here is wrong it's محرم شرع you are seen as a backward person شخص who doesn't know the reality that you're living you don't understand the 21st century this is norm and it's so sad that you travel to some Muslim countries and you see a Muslim woman who is an Arab who doesn't speak English but she's imitating who an actress who she saw on Hollywood she's imitating Kim Kardashian you don't even speak English how do you know her but that's how harsh and how problematic the issue is the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم he said and also fear the women فَإِنَّ أَوَلَ فِتْرَا the first fitna that took place in this ummah the first fitna that took place before this ummah was the fitna of women and this is a matter we are testing it you see in a household cousins sitting with one another you see a brother and sister sorry two cousins who are not lawful to be sitting with each other in the way that they are and then the consequences that are bad from it are emailed to those who are students of knowledge other مشايخ are asked questions which is so easy to prevent how easy was it to prevent just distinguish between the male and the female place the women in one place and place the men in another place also from the affairs of imitating the disbelievers my beloved brothers and sisters is an احتفال it's celebrating the festivals that are set by the non-believers many of you may work in companies you may work with organizations and then they are celebrating Christmas or they are celebrating new year and so what happens you as a Muslim start to you start to adopt this from them و لذلك الله سلم القرآن والذين لا يشهدون الزور the believer the عباد الرحمن are those who do not participate in azzour جمع من السلف a group of imma to salaf they said this ayah والذين لا يشهدون الزور اي لا يحضرون they do not they do not participate اعياد الكفار they said that this ayah والذين لا يشهدون الزور امين they don't participate in the celebrations of the non-believers اقول ما يتسمعون وأستغفروا الله ليولك والاسائر المسلمين من كل ذنب فاستغفروه إنه هو الغفور الرحيم الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن مثناء الجمين واشدوا الله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهد سبيل وأشدوا أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد العلامة ابن القييم قال باستخدام الأشياء باستخدام المسلمين من المسلمين ابن القييم يتحدث عن حتى يتحدث ويقول لهم باستخدام أو باستخدام ابن القييم يقول إنه هو في سلم إذا that person is saved من الكفري the one who said the statement if his statement has been saved from kufr meaning it's between it being kufr or not فإنه من المحرمات if what you've just said is not kufr then it's a sin the minimum it can be it's a sin وهو بمنزلتي and he said it's like the person who is giving glad tidings to the disbelievers بصدودهم للصليب because of their prostration to the idol you're saying you are good in prostrating to the idol the one who gives glad tidings to them regarding their festivals one of the things that we find that the Muslims are imitating the disbelievers in is the dressing and the way that the Muslim looks the message to صلى الله عليه وسلم in the hadith اليمام المسلم narrating in صحيح that the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم رأى رجل in the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم who was wearing two garments with safflower the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said to him إنها هاله إيثيابون this which you're wearing right now is a garment or two garments of the garments of the disbelievers فلا تلبسها do not wear it عبد عمر من الخطاب رضي الله تعالى عنه he sent to the Muslims who were residing in pharis he sent a letter to them and he sent to them إياكم وزي أهل الشيخ be cautious and stay away from the clothing of the disbelievers بقاري ناري تنين صحيح one of the things that we also find that the Muslims do today is when it comes to the circles of knowledge and the religion is being taught not importance is given to it but the child is burdened into going into university and studying the religion studying academic studies and secular knowledge not that I'm saying you can't study academic knowledge neither am I saying that you can't study secular knowledge I am not saying that in any way for more shape but I'm saying that that is the most important thing in the eyes of the Muslims over study the religion ولي ذلك عمر رضي الله تعالى عنه he said إياكم ورطانة وعاجم stay away from the speech of the disbelievers meaning the language in which they speak ولي ذلك ابن رجب الحمبر رحمه الله وابن القيه ملجوزية and also ابن جماعة and also أبو يعلى الكيكلد رحمه الله رحمه الله جميع all of them stated that if a person is learning the language of the disbelievers without no مصلاحة راجحة a benefit does not come to Islam why you're learning this language for then he said it's محرم it's not allowed for you to learn it so when you're learning the English language you're learning French you're learning this language if you're not trying to bring about benefit for Islam and the Muslims these علماء have stated clearly that it's prohibited so what about if they saw Muslims who are not even happy where the child learns Arabic they say to him leave learning Arabic stop learning Quran if now you look at many Muslims today you have five days where they go to school two days is Quran but when the GCSE is about to come when the maths exam is about to come or this they tell the child you don't have to come to the duksi you don't have to come to the madrasa on Monday it said cut it إن شاء الله do your exam first and this is the sad reality والله also the thing that you find that the Muslims are imitating the disbelievers is cutting your beard and letting the moustache grow الإمامة مسلمة رحمة الله نريت إني صحيح that the Prophet ﷺ clearly instructed the men to let their beards grow and to shorten their moustache today if you say to a man يا أخي let your beard grow stop cutting your beard this is something that you're imitating the disbelievers he will become angry with you and I'm not shocked after the خطبة الجمع if I get grabbed by the collar and I'm said يا أخي leave us alone what are you talking about and this is a reality that it's become so embarrassing for a person to even talk about my beloved brothers and sisters the humiliation that we are in we will not be taken out of it unless we hold on to the path of the messenger عليه الصلاة والسلام I'm going to conclude with the Anwar the types that ابن القيّن his Kitab he mentions in his Kitab اختضاء صلاة المستقين المخالفة أصعب الجعيم that imitating the disbelievers are three types he says something that's from their religion it's from their religion and it is also from our religion we find it in their religion and we also find it in our religion even then we can't follow them and we can't imitate them we will not go against them في أصل العبادة the original عبادة we will do it with them but we will change the way that we do it like for instance سوم يوم عاشورا the fasting of the day of عاشورا you will find it in their in their scripture and you'll find it in ours the messenger said لأين عشتوا إلى قابلين if I live next year لأصو من التاسع I will fast on the ninth I will fast on the tenth which they fast on but I will change the way I fast I will make one day before it the second one is something that was in their religion and our religion abrogated it and the issue is the celebration of Saturday our religion changed it and it made it for us on Fridays we are not allowed to follow them in this because our religion abrogated their one last but not least the third one is something that is not part of their religion they are the ones who made it ورحبانية تنبت دعوها they are the ones who added this to their religion وليداركة the city of Medina the disbelievers understood that the prophet didn't want to follow them يهود when they heard that the messenger said when the woman is on her menace the Jews what they do is they build a hut for the woman and they tell her to stay in there so when the prophet heard he said that the man is allowed to do everything with the woman except sexual intercourse the Jews they said محمد does not want anything else except to oppose us that's all he wants and this was a form of belittling them by not imitating them but the ummah have given them strength by wanting to look like them اللهمغفلنا دنوبنا وإصرافنا في أمرنا وثبت أقدامنا وانصلنا على القوم الكافرين اللهمغفلنا هزلنا واجدنا وخطأنا وعمدنا وكل ذلك عندنا يا رب العالمين اللهم لا تجعل الدنيا أكبرها منها ولا مبلغ علمنا ولا تصليط علينا بدنوبنا من لا يخاف كثيرا ولا يرحمنا ربئات نفوسنا تقواها وزكها أنت خير من زكاها أنت وليها ومولاه ربئاتنا في الدنيا حسنة وفي الآخرة حسنة وقنا عذاب النار وقن الصلاة
