 و أقول في القرآن ما جاءت به آياته فهو الكاريم المنزال و أقول قال الله جل جلاله والمصطف الهدي و لا أتأوله الحمد لله رب العالمين نهو الحمد الحسن والثاناء الجميل و أشدوا لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريكا لا يقول الحقا وهو يهدي السبيل و أشدوا أن محمد أن عبده و رسوله صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد إن شاء الله تعالى سأبدأ جديد جديد جديد جديد where I will be going through common contradictions that we all fall into these common contradictions majority of us will find that we do fall into it and from now onwards إن شاء الله تعالى will be aware of it and avoid it before I go into the topic I just want to give an introduction as you all know my beloved brother and sisters he warns us against this concept of contradicting ourselves in what we say and what we do there's a famous verse that you all know Allah سبحانه وتعالى he says all those of you who believe why do you say that which you don't do this verse is a very powerful verse extremely powerful it's a reminder for every single one of us that we think about what we say as much as we think about what we do are we acting upon what we know and a lot of us we've been raised in a Muslim household we've been nurtured by parents who take the religion very serious so we know a lot of us what is Halal and what is Haram so we have that knowledge but do we really act upon it are we contradicting ourselves this is what the series is all about being conscious of what you say to other people and your own actions are you taking a lesson from this and a reminder ولداركة the great prophet of Allah he said to his people I do not want to oppose you all I don't want to contradict myself by telling you guys to stop doing this and then I am behind closed doors doing it or I tell you all to do this but behind closed doors I'm not doing it I don't want to contradict myself he said and this is what it's all about staying consistent these two terms they go against each other these two terms are opposite to one another contradiction and consistency this ayah that I started with this ayah Ibn Abbas mentioned it came down on a group of people who said لو لا علموا if we were to know أحب الأعمال إلى الله if we were to know the most beloved action to Allah سبحانه وتعالى we would have done it لا عملنا we would have done it they said فدلهم الله then inform them he told them لا أحب الأعمال إليه the action that is most beloved to him الله told them الله told them that is إن الله يحب الذين يقاتلون فيه سبيله صفا الله informed them and he told them that the thing that he loves the most is جهد في سبيل الله so now they know فبيّن لهم الله clarified the issue to them they were the ones who said if only Allah told us if only we knew what was most beloved to Allah then we would have done it we would have acted upon it and then Allah informed them سبحانه وتعالى the most beloved action to him سبحانه وتعالى and Allah told them that is الجهد في سبيل الله the battle of Uhud came فتولوا they were tested يوم Uhud in the day of Uhud in the statement that they said but what did they do فولّوا عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم they turned their backs on the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and then Allah سبحانه وتعالى sent the verse down he said يا أيوه الذين آمنوا those of you who believe who Iman has settled into their hearts لما تقولونة why do you say ما لا تفحلونة that which you're not going to do you said that you wanted to fight you said that you want to do the most beloved action to Allah you were informed of the most beloved action to Allah when you found out you didn't do it why why do you say that which you are not going to act upon and so that's what I insha'Allah I want to bring to your attention there are six reasons why people contradict themselves and they are not consistent the first one is there is a weakness in this person in terms of his connection with the religion there's a badful where's it with Dini your relationship with the religion is very weak when you study the religion when you are around Muslims or when you are exposed to the religion on a consistent basis when you start to pick up you start to learn what is right and what is wrong innately you have this feeling والإثم محاكة في صدريك the evil becomes something that's in your heart there's this where's it with Dini you're innately connected to the religion there's a lot of people who haven't got that or it's very weak that's one reason why they contradict themselves the second reason is with تذكر الموت وما بعده the person doesn't remember death and what is after it their heart has no connection with the hereafter the stage is to come after the grave, the day of judgment the meeting of Allah the person has only just seen this world and so they keep contradicting themselves and we'll see when I mention those contradictions you'll start to see that these points are so true and so relevant the third one is the person doesn't sit with righteous people especially the people of knowledge he's around and surrounded by people who are evil, people who are bad people who have bad conduct they have weakness in their religion people who are people who commit crimes openly don't fear Allah and the consequences of their evil action you're surrounded around that type of person you see yourself contradict yourself a lot because sinners contradict themselves a lot people who sin contradict themselves a lot you don't find them to be consistent the fourth is this fourth reason why people contradict themselves is they determine what is good and what is bad based on their desires it's based on I feel this is good I think it's a good thing on what basis I think it's good it's all his desires his feelings that's what he bases it all on I'm not saying that some things you can't feel that it's right or wrong but everything you're going to contradict yourself because the next calls you to evil you're taking your nefs as you're taking it as the reference point and your nefs is telling you what is right from what is wrong you're in trouble Allah says in the Qur'an أفرأيت من اتخذ إله هو هوا the ones who have taken their lord their desires their desires tells them this is good their desires then says the same thing their desires says to them I'm not saying that I'm not saying that the same thing their desires says to them oh no it's not good you'll start seeing the person one thing in one situation he said is good and in another day he's saying it's bad today there's a reason for it tomorrow there's another reason so there's حسب الهوة and شهوة the fifth reason is the person is deceived by number you determine everything based on number you contradict yourself if you keep saying the majority of the people don't like this the majority of the people think this the majority of the people are that the majority are اختراروا بالكثرة being deceived by the large number of people you contradict yourself because these people who you're using the majority of them are misguided as Allah told us in the Qur'an Allah says if you obey the majority of the people they will misguide you Allah also says the majority of the people don't know Allah also says in another place little from the creations of Allah remember him so the concept of majority the number is being brings about contradiction you'll see that and last but not least it's the person doesn't have much knowledge they lack knowledge and I've seen people who are sincere passionate about their religion passionate about the deen of Islam their sincerity you cannot question you can't question their sincerity you can see through them so pure and so innocent they are there's no debate about that but because they don't have knowledge they contradict themselves so often so much these six in the course of this series note it down it's one or two at least one reason is why the people are contradicting themselves in one of the few contradictions that I'm going to mention I'm going to stop there before I leave I just want to say my beloved brothers and sisters this series it's going to be and to the point I don't want to lengthen the explanation and bring quotes and references no the point is bring the contradiction and how the people are contradicting themselves and بإذن الله الكريم give you a solution and then leave it there I hope بإذن الله الكريم with the permission of Allah that it doesn't exceed five minutes quick and to the point anything which I have said that was wrong or incorrect is from me as shaytan and Allah بحمده أشهد والله إلهي الله أستغفر وكواته إلي السلام عليكم
