 وأقولوا في القرآن ما جاءت به آياته فهو الكاريم المنزاله وأقولوا قال الله جل جلاله والمصطفة الهدي ولا أتأوّاله الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وأشد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وأشد أن محمد عبده ورسوله صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد my beloved brothers and sisters إن شاء الله تعالى this is our second episode إن شاء الله تعالى in this episode I want to talk about some stories مواقف incidents that were mentioned in the Qur'an and the authentic prophetic tradition the Ahadith of the Prophet ﷺ people who showed how Eman can change their life and how their Eman saved them at times of turmoil at times of hardship and how it brought tranquility and ease for them because what I mentioned in our introduction they need to be presented in a manner or a way where a person can say الله أكبر it has been implemented it has been done and the scholars they say with an example things become clear I'm going to go through each story not in its entirety but I'm only going to point out the parts that I think إن شاء الله تعالى can exemplify for us and show to us how when Eman comes in contact with our hearts that it can change everything for us and how when Eman truly settles in our hearts and then it manifests on our limbs how everything in this world will work in favor of us the story that I إن شاء الله تعالى I want to touch on today and bring those إبار and those lessons and those points of contemplation from is the magicians of فرعون the magicians of فرعون were a people that فرعون chose فرعون when he spoke to نبي الله موسى and he saw that موسى had a message and that موسى was speaking against him and فرعون was a tyrannical leader was a Tawoot and he exceeded his limits and he claimed that he was the God Supreme Lord أنا ربكم الأعلى ما علمت لكم من إلهي غيري I don't know any Lord for other than you أليس لي ملك مصر و هذه الأنهار تجني من تحت يعني he was claiming everything موسى came to him and preached to him and told him about الله عز و جل فرعون didn't like it became very angry and he promised نبي الله موسى that he is going to destroy him and he promised him and told him that there's going to be a pointy date يوم زينتي that was a particular date that نبي الله موسى and فرعون are going to come head on فرعون what he did was و أرصل فرعون في المدائن حاشر فرعون sent out for all of the magicians to be brought to him and he wanted to make فرعون so he wanted to make نبي الله موسى and these magicians battle he wanted to prove to the people that نبي الله موسى is a magician and that he is a weak magician and that he is greater than him and better than him the story here starts and again as I mentioned I'm not going to mention the story in his entirety I'm just going to mention selections the magicians when they came to فرعون they said something to فرعون they said فرعون انا لنا لأجرا إن كنا نحن الغالبين are we going to be rewarded if we beat mousa if we win is there anything you have in store for us what are you going to give us what are we going to be compensated with if we destroy mousa and those who are with him فرعون responded and he said قال نعم و إنكم إذا لمن المقربين yes I will reward you you guys are going to be very close to me the magicians their aim and their objective is worldly possession they want a position they want recognition they want wealth they want something they have غرب دنيوي their ultimate goal is the world the first thing they ask فرعون is انا لنا لأجرا are we going to get rewarded are we going to be compensated for our efforts on our hard work فرعون says to them نعم of course you are قال نعم و إنكم إذا لمن المقربين you are going to be close to me فرعون claims to be إله right if you guys do good you are going to be close to إله that's what he is trying to say to them and they became happy after the magicians spoke to فرعون they sat amongst themselves and they started to have a نجوة a hidden discussion a private meeting amongst themselves الله تعالى تعالى told us in the Quran what the private discussion was and the private meeting الله تعالى تعالى told us قالوا they said إنها داني لساحراني يريداني أن يخرجاكم من أرضكم بسحرهما ويدهب بطريقتكم المثلة فأجمع كيدكم ثم تصفى وقد أفلح اليوم من استعلى الله تعالى تعالى told us that they said that نبي الله موسى أن نبي الله هارون الله تعالى تعالى said that they said those two people are magicians إنها داني لساحراني يريداني أن يخرجاكم من أرضكم these two men they want to take you out of your lands they want to take you out of your lands ويدهب بطريقتكم المثلة and they want to tread on your path to be called new magicians and they want to be the people who فرعون كول فأجمع كيدكم bring your planning all together فأجمع كيدكم ثم تصفى وقد أفلح اليوم من استعلى bring your affairs together today let's put hard work in today for verily the person who's going to be successful is the one who wins that's what they said amongst themselves they had their meeting they had their discussion now they come to the battlefield they come to the place that the battle is going to take place when they come they come with arrogance they come with confidence conceit they believe they're going to win they spoke to Musa by saying قالوا يا موسى إما أن تلقي وإما أن نكون أول من ألقاء من صورة العرافة دي they say قالوا يا موسى إما أن تلقي وإما أن نكون نحن الملقي موسى are you going to throw or are you going to throw you choose are they confident they are arrogant they follow themselves they think they're going to win they're going to come with victory موسى do you want to go first you choose يعني given موسى option that's the mindset that they're coming with قال لهم موسى نبي الله موسى spoke to them and he said to them ألقوا ما أنتم ملقون throw what you guys are going to throw throw what you're going to throw فألقوا حبالهم وعصيهم وقالوا بعزة فرعون إننا نحن الغالبون point here my beloved brothers and sisters the magicians they threw after موسى set them قال لهم موسى نبي الله موسى set them ألقوا throw ما أنتم ملقون throw what you guys are going to throw فألقوا حبالهم وعصيهم وقالوا بعزة فرعون إننا لنحن الغالبون they swore by they threw their sticks they threw their ropes they threw everything when they threw it they said that today we're going to win through the honor of the honor يعني they wash it it is through the honor of the honor that we're going to win today موسى عليه السلام and Haroon they see the sticks and the ropes thrown there the magic unfolds and revels الله تباركوا إطعاله he says about their magic and how big it was الله says قال ألقوا فلما ألقوا سحروا أعيون الناس واسترهبوهم وجاءوا بسحر عظيم الله أسر فلما ألقوا سحروا أعيون الناس the magic they came with was is referred to as سحر التقهيل they made the people see things بر الله تباركوا إطعاله they said وجاءوا بسحر العظيم they came with a great magic this great magic that they came with affected Mousa it put fear in Mousa's heart فأو جسفي نفسي خيفة Mousa Mousa started to be scared قلنا لا تخف الله said to Mousa don't be scared إنك أنت الأعلى you are the supreme one you are the high one don't be scared وألق ما في يمينك تلقف ما صنعوا إنما صنعوا كيد ساحر ولا يفلحوا الساحر حيث وداء الله تباركوا إطعاله ودري سيت موسى فألق ما في يمينك throw what is in your right hand throw what in your hand in your right hand فألق ما في يمينك تلقف ما صنعوا it will take everything that they throw and then Allah تباركوا إطعاله إنما صنعوا كيد ساحر ولا يفلحوا الساحر حيث وداء no magician is ever going to be successful الله restored in the heart of Mousa that tranquility that I mentioned last in our last episode التوماينة tranquility سكينة والوقار Mousa the fear went it will take everything that they thrown and then Allah Mousa the fear went he got scared at the beginning when he saw it فأوجس في نفسي خيفة Mousa قلنا لا تخف إنك أنت الأعلى you are the higher one why are you the higher one why is Mousa the higher one because Mousa believes in Allah Mousa has Eman Mousa has Allah on his side إن الله يدافع عن الذين آمنوا الله is going to aid Mousa الله aids the believers I mentioned that last time ألا إن أولياء الله لا خوف عليهم ولا هم يحزنون الذين آمنوا وكانوا يتقون the people who have إيمانة نتقوى there is no need for them to be scared الله is on your side الله is going to aid you الله is going to support you سبحانه وتعالى الله تبارك وتعالى said don't be scared don't be worried don't have any fear in your heart because you are the upper one you are the higher one you are the greater one إنك أنت الأعلى then الله تبارك وتعالى told him instructing Mousa what to do he said throw it in your right hand what will they do? they will destroy everything that they have thrown all of their ropes they will take it they will peck through it and they will take it all these are magicians all they have done is سحر وأعيون الناس all they have come with is just deluded the people what happened نبي الله Mousa through his stick and as soon as he threw his stick it destroyed everything it took everything it destroyed it all it annihilated it magicians they saw something they are not aware of these are the magicians of فرعون I mentioned to you فأرسل فرعون وفي المدائن فرعون sent for these magicians from all over the world he sent for them these magicians are the hand picked magicians they were not able to understand what Mousa came with when they looked deep into it they realized this is not the magic they used to this is not magic they came to that conclusion this is not magic this which Mousa is doing is not magic it came to their minds they saw it they contemplated they pondered over these signs and they realized this is from a higher beam الله so what do they do فألقي السحرة سجدا all of the magicians they fell into prostration all of them they fell into prostration قالوا أمن برب حارون وموسا صورة طاها sorry they said that we believe in the lord ابنبي الله موسا and حارون they all fell down صورة العراف what did they say فألقي السحرة they fell down they fell down what did they say فألقي السحرة وساددين قالوا أمن برب العالمين رب موسا وحارون the magicians they fell into prostration يعني they became slaves to who Allah brothers and sisters please just a minute ago they were asking فرعون انا لنا لا أدرا إن كنا نحن الغالبين are we going to be rewarded if we are the winners if we destroy Mousa if we beat Mousa are we going to be rewarded just a minute ago they were saying when they were throwing their ropes they were saying فالقوحبالهم وعصيهم وقالوا بعزة فرعون إن لنا لنا الغالبون بعزة فرعون they were swearing by فرعون's honor فرعون they were swearing by him here what did they do فألقي السحرة وسودد قالوا آمننا برب حارون وموسا أما فألقي السحرة ساجدين قالوا آمننا برب العالمين رب موسا وحارون سريطا they were saying آمننا إيمان has come into contact with their hearts they've now felt إيمان فرعون wants to scare them now he wants to see saw what they are doing he saw that they prostrated to a god other than him he said قال آمنتم له قبل أن آدن لكم إنه لكبير كم الذي علمكم السحرة فلا سوفة تعلمون لو قط عن إيديكم وارجلكم من خلاف ولو صلبنكم أجمعين قالوا لا ضير إنه إلى ربنا من قلبون فرعون ساتدهم قالوا آمنتم you believed قبل أن آدن لكم before I gave you permission you believed the problem comes from the biggest one who taught you magic فلا سوفة تعلمون you will know you will know what I will do to you how I'm going to destroy you guys he says فلا قط عن إيديكم I'm going to cut your hands وارجلكم I'm going to cut your legs من خلاف I will cut them one leg here and one your left leg and your right hand I will do it like that and I will what ولو صلبنكم أجمعين all of you guys I will hang you on the trees what did they say قالوا لا ضير إنه إلى ربنا من قلبون no harm we are going to return to our words حني they are standing up to Pharaoh they are not scared just before they wanted the dunya they were asking Pharaoh what are you going to give us what money are you going to give us what are we going to earn from this حني they were asking for dunya and now they are saying to him we are going to turn to our words their hearts straight away connected to what their hearts straight away connected to the akhirah the iman changed their perspective they had low aspiration which was the dunya now their aspiration went up into the sky إنه نذأ يالله تبارك وتعاله سن قال آمنتم له قبل أن آدن لكم إنه لكبيركم اللذي يعلمكم السحرة فلأقط عن إيديكم وأرجلكم من خلاف ولأصليب أنكم في جدوع النخل ولا تعلمون أن ينأ شد عذابا وأبقى لا سوف يرعون ستهم and they responded by saying what قالوا لن نؤثرك على ما جاءنا من البينات والذي فطرنا فقض ما أنت قاب إنما تقضي هذه الحياة الدنيا إنه آمننا بربنا ليغفر لنا خطيانا وما أكرهتنا عليه من السحر والله خير وأبقى they said to فرعون قالوا لن نؤثرك على ما جاءنا من البينات والذي فطرنا فقض ما أنت قاب إنما تقضي هذه الحياة الدنيا فرعون والله we're never going to choose you over the clear evidence that have come to us we just saw proofs clear evidences have come to us لن نؤثرك we're not going to choose you over those proofs we're not going to choose you over it we're not going to choose you over what our فطر is calling us to and what we feel is right فقض ما أنت قاب judge whatever you want do whatever you want all you're going to judge is a worldly affairs all you're going to do to us is a worldly harm look they already lost the desire of this dunya they don't want it anymore فقض ما أنت قاب إنما تقضي هذه الحياة الدنيا you're only going to do a physical harm on us you're going to take away our dunya for us maybe kill us torturous what else are you going to do لكن إن أمننا بربنا we have believed in Allah أمننا إيمان has entered our heart إن أمن بربنا why ليغفل لنا خطيانا وما أكرهتنا عليه من السحر we have believed in Allah we believe in Allah سبحانه وتعالى and we hope from this belief that we have come with that he's going to forgive us for our sins we also hope that he's going to forgive us for what you forced us to be coming والله خير الله is better than you فرعون وأبقى أن الله is going to remain you are going to die one day then they said to فرعون speaking to him and they said to him إنه من يأتي ربه مجرما فإن له جهنما لا يموت فيها ولا يحيا فرعون listen to our message anyone who comes to Allah as a criminal like you are جهنما is going to be fine about and that's where he's going to be ومن يأتي إنه من الصالحة فأولا كالهم الدرجات الأولا and if a person comes to Allah with Eman family believing in Allah acting upon what he believes that person is going to have a high reward high level in Jannah they preach into فرعون they're telling him what to believe what to do and what not to do some of them they said that last part wasn't the magicians and it wasn't them who said it and some of them they said it was the magicians who said this اللهم this really shows that when the Eman goes into a person's heart perspective change they outlook your world view changes and how you see things والله you truly become grounded no one can really move you you become solid and you become strong they were weak the magicians they were low at the beginning all they wanted was the dunya money they were prostrating to فرعون فاستخفى قوموا فاطعوا إنهم كانوا قوموا فاسقين they were worshipping فرعون they were honoring فرعون they were serving his desires and what he wanted but then now they became free individuals they they broke the shackles of worshipping a creation and they went into the freedom of worshipping the creator of the creation and that is true freedom that their hearts became connected والله I ask Allah سبحانه وتعالى that he makes us a people who truly taste the Eman like that and they become firm in it يا مقلبة القلوب ثبت قلوبنا على دينك والله brothers and sisters Eman is a favor if Allah gives it to you سبحانه وتعالى you've been given something very big Allah mentions that Eman is a favor يمنون عليك أن أسلموا كلها تمنوا علي إسلامكم بل الله يمنوا عليكم أن هدافهم لإيمان كنتم صادقين إنه ندأ يا الله تبارك وتعالى يقول ولكن الله حبب إليكم الإيمان وزيّنه في قلوبكم وكرّح إليكم الكفر والفصوق والعسيان أولئك هم الراشدون إذا الله قلت love of Eman in your heart might be love brothers and sisters and it becomes rooted in your heart and it comes onto your limbs والله there is nothing in this world that's missing from you there's nothing you need you've got the best in this world and in the hereafter anything I might have said that was wrong or incorrect is from me إن شاء
