 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا بدا بدا وياله من شراف عظيمي ملا اخلاص له ولا متابع اي بيبو who have no sincerity and they are not in accordance to the sunnah فليس عمله موافق للشرع their actions are not in accordance to the sharia وليس هو خالص للمعبودي and it is also not sincerely done for Allah سبحانه وتعالى it is like those people who beautify their actions and they beautify their righteous deeds or their doings they beautify it for the people and it is not even in accordance to the sunnah وليذالك الله سبحانه وتعالى لا تحسبن الذين يفرحون بما اتوا ويحبون أن يحمدوا بما لم يفعلوا فلا تحسبنهم بمفازة من العذاب ولهم عذاب ولهم عذاب اليم في هذه الآية الله تعالى تعالى he says that they are happy with what بما اتوا that which they have been given the innovation that they have that they are in the guidance and the shirk which they are in they are happy with it ويحبون بما they want to be is يحمدوا they want to be praised for following the sunnah and being sincere that's what they want to be praised for when in reality what they are doing is what they are doing shirk and they are doing bid'a that's what they want to be praised for they want to be praised for the sunnah and they want to be praised for when they are not upon that القسم الثالث the third type of people are who من هو مخلصون a person who is sincere في أعماله in his actions لكنها على غير متابعة الأمر but he is not he is not in accordance to the sunnah كالجهال العباد and this is the majority of the worshippers the ignorant worshippers والمنتسمين إلى طريقة الزهدي والفق those people who want to be aesthetic who fall into tasawwuf and stuff like that a lot of them are sincere in what they are doing and they do it for the sake of Allah but reality is that they are what are they doing in accordance to the sunnah are they doing in accordance to the sunnah now they are not so a pillar is missing from their religion the religion stands on these two pillars إخلاص ومتابعة الرسول sincerity and in accordance to the sunnah so will the action be accepted from them the action won't be accepted from them and the presence of one does not eliminate the other the presence of one does not eliminate the other one what does that mean just because a person has sincerity and إخلاص it doesn't mean in any way in any way form or shape that we say that and they don't have they don't have متابعة الرسول they are not in accordance to the sunnah we won't say I know he's praying I know and I know there's no delete for that but look at him he's crying يا أخي دمان is sincere man يا أخي دمان is doing for the sake of Allah يا أخي look at his intention the intention is praiseworthy and it's noble that he has that but the presence of sincerity does not get rid of what it doesn't get rid of what it doesn't get rid of the other pillar that is missing which is that who sanctioned and who permitted for him to worship Allah سبحانه وتعالى with what فجر فرقع who gave that permission to him he with me brothers that's very important because the people try to come to the sincerity side and try to blackmail you on the sincerity that presence doesn't eliminate and the same is a person who is according to the sunnah who has no sincerity in his actions he's no sincerity and he's following the sunnah from the apparent he's on his swag in his pocket he's got a beard masha Allah his thob is above his ankles or his trousers above his ankles and he's what لا خلاص له no sincerity another illness all of those are not praiseworthy so just because he's following the sunnah he's going to be criticized for not following that for not having sincerity القسم الرابع of the fourth type the fourth one is من أعماله على متابعة الأمر لكنها لغير الله he's in accordance to the sunnah but he's not done for the sake of Allah he prays fajر in the masjid but he does that so the people can say look at him Allahu Akbar he fasts Mondays and Thursdays he reads the Quran all of the things that he does is in accordance to the sunnah it is what the prophet came with it is sanctioned by Allah SWT and it's legislated by him but his intention his motive behind these actions are other than Allah SWT so these are the fourth types of people when it comes to these pillars and the ones who we should be working towards and the one that we need to be is the first type of people which is the ones who combine between sincerity and what and متابعة الرسول to be in accordance to the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم القاعدة الثانية the second قاعدة and the second principle the second قاعدة is مزدر التشريق والدعوة والعبادة هو القرآن والسنة الصحيحة are the dawings مزدر التشريق المزدر التشريق المزدر التشرق the source of legislation where do you take you'reスト مشوش Where do you take your Dawah from Where do you take your drillking from هو القرآن والسنة الصحيحة So the source of legislation and Dawah and ibadah انهم يتأخذون من أين؟ يتأخذون من القرآن ويأخذون من السنة الصحيحة سنة الثانية هل يتأخذون مني؟ سنة الثانية هذا قاعدة الثانية قاعدة الثانية الله يقول في صورة الأعراف آية 3 الله يقول اتبعوا فلو اتبعوا اتبعوا ما انزل إليكم من ربكم ما يرد منك من ربكم ولا تتبعوا ولا تتبعوا من دونيه أو لياء بساعدة الله لا تتبعوا ولا تتبعوا من دونيه بساعدة الله أو لياء أخذين هذا آية يخبرنا ماذا؟ دا واحي دا كتابن السنة ما انزل إليكم من ربكم دا which has been sent from Allah دا قرآن has been sent from Allah and السنة has been sent from Allah بوت of them has been sent from Allah as the poet said فسنة النبي واحي ثاني عليه ما قد اطلق الواحيان وإنما طريقها الرواية ففتقر الراوي إلى الديلايا السنة of the Prophet ﷺ is what is a second revelation so we need to follow it بوت of them are from Allah The Qur'an is from who? is from Allah and the Sunnah is from Allah so both of them follow them and don't follow anyone besides that don't follow an individual The second آية الله says والرسولة and obey the messenger Brothers and sisters I want you to understand something when the companion said the Prophet ﷺ إذا أشاء الله أما ما شاء الله وإذا الله wills وشئتا أن you wish محمد what did the Prophet ﷺ say to them أجعلتني لله نبدا have you made me equal to Allah didn't he not say that they said ما شاء الله whatever Allah wills وشئتا أن wherever you will محمد أجعلتني لله نبدا have you made me equal to Allah did he not say that are you with me brothers because they used a letter in that sentence of theirs which was wow and the wow shows connection that the will of Allah and the will of the Prophet are both connected are you with me and the Prophet disagreed with that and he rejected that statement and what did he say الله ثم ثم شاء محمد why did he say use the word ثم because the word ثم it shows that the will of Allah comes first and then whose will comes after whose will comes after the messenger but when it comes to the obedience of Allah and the messenger the wow is always used the wow is used ثم is not used do you know why the wow is used the reason why the wow is used is because the obedience of Allah and the messenger are the same that's why Allah said in His ayah و أطيع الله أبي الله و الرسول and obey the messenger لعلكم ترحمون you will attain from it الله سبحانه وتعالى زماسي what are you going to attain yeah you are going to attain الله سبحانه وتعالى زماسي و قوله تعالى الله so he says فَاَسْتَمْسِكْ بِالَّذِي أُوْحِيَ إِلَيْكِ إِنَّكَ عَلَا صِرَاطٍ مُستَقِيمِ فَاَسْتَمْسِكْ فَاَسْتَمْسِكْ فَاَسْتَمْسِكْ this ayah is in surah al-Zukhruf ayah 43 and the previous verse was in surah al-Amaran ayah 132 فَاَسْتَمْسِكْ so if you want to know a person who is on the straight path what are they holding onto yeah they are holding onto the revelation الله also said in surah al-Hutcharat the first ayah يَاَيُوْهَلَّذِيْنَا أَاَمَنُ رَيْحِكِ رَيْحِكِ خلط doesn't work what we are لا تقدموا بين يدي الله ورسولي لا تذهبوا قبل الليل لا تقول أي شيء قبل الليل لا تفعل أي شيء قبل الليل تتوقفوا قبل الليل ورقلهم والذي يقومون once you know what that is then follow that لا تتكلم before it also Allah سبحانه وتعالى that is the surat al-Hujrat ayah 1 this Allah also says in surat al-Isra ayah 36 ولا تقفوا ما ليس لك به علم إن السمعة والبصارة والفؤادة كل أولئك كان عنه مسؤولة Allah says ولا تقفوا ما ليس لك به علم then a person should not talk about that which they don't have no knowledge of what is it that the knowledge that you don't have the knowledge that you don't have is a knowledge that you don't understand what you don't have no textual evidence for it you don't have qala Allah and you don't have qala الرسول in this particular matter so you don't want to speak before the evidence comes to you so Allah says ولا تقفوا ما ليس لك به علم don't speak about what you have no knowledge of إن السمعة hearing والبصارة and seeing والفؤادة and the heart كل أولئك كان عنه مسؤولة you will be questioned for those old day of judgment you're hearing you're seeing and you're heart everything you'll be asked the day of judgment regarding it also Allah سبحانه وتعالى وانجم إذا هو وانجم إذا هو ما ظل صاحبكم وما غوى وما ينطق عن الهواء الله says to us in here وما ينطق عن الهواء نبي الله محمد does he speak from his wings and desires الله said he does not speak from his own wings and desires so whatever the prophet says it's from who it's from who الله سبحانه وتعالى so it's a revelation it's a revelation also the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said in a hadith ألمان محاكم narrated in his مستدرك this hadith is Hasan ألمان ماليك also narrated in his موططة but he narrated in his موططة بلاغا بلاغا means it means that إمان ماليك will say بلاغا reach me that the prophet said this are you with me that the prophet what the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said this and it's basically إمان ماليك narrating a hadith without a chain of narration he narrating a hadith without a chain of narration it's like you would say in صحيح البخاري معلق right this hadith is معلق موططة you say بلاغ you say it's what it's a بلاغ he narrated it بلاغا and the hadith has many narrations to authenticate it وله شواهد it's also narrated from جابر رضي الله شخ ناصر authenticated it شخ محمد ناصر الدين الألباني مو الله you authenticated this and this hadith is تركت فيكم شيئين I have left two things for you لن تضل بعدهم you will never be misguided after these two things I have left two things for you and you will never be misguided you will never be misguided after them كتاب الله the book of Allah والسنة and my sunnah I have left two things for you if you hold on to these two things you will never be misguided are you with me brothers and sisters basically we today have the thing that's going to give us salvation we hold on to these two we're not going to be misguided كتاب الله the book of Allah والسنة and the sunnah of the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم and somebody will come up to you today and they will say to you and this is والله يا إخوة it's dangerous it's extremely dangerous for somebody to come and to say to you saying I'm going to hold the success of the people is connected to the كتاب الله this is a cliche you hear people say that today when in reality it is what the prophet told us عليه الصلاة والسلام that these are the two things I have left for you in which if you hold on to you're going to find success so this is what this point was right are you with me brothers this قاعدة that we took right now was what that every single thing where do you take your دعوة from where do you take your عبادة from where do you take your عبادة from the Qur'an and the the authentic sunnah right so you take the صلاة from where the Qur'an and the sunnah right what about your دعوة the way you give دعوة where do you take that from where do you take it from brothers which one did the prophet do more did he do more صلاة or did he do more دعوة in his life the prophet's دعوة was longer than his صلاة the دعوة of the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام was longer in period was far longer than his صلاة عليه الصلاة والسلام and he عليه الصلاة والسلام sanctioned how to pray what you can't do in the prayer what you can't do in the prayer what would nullify your prayer what would what was needed in your prayer what's the prerequisite for the prayer what is the pillar for the prayer everything clarified it is it not the case when in reality the prayer of the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام came when when did he pray after 10 years of his عبادة after 10 years of دعوة صح and his دعوة never stopped عليه الصلاة والسلام his دعوة still carried on from Medina are you with me brothers so the same way that the prayer can't be done except for you the kitab and the sunnah you can't do دعوة unless it's found in what you're saying what you're calling to how you're going to call to it has to be sanctioned by the kitab and the the sunnah don't make your own way for دعوة so this is what this qa'idah is that the source in which your religion is taken from your دعوة is taken from your عبادة is taken from is the Quran and the sunnah و لذلك الإمام أحمد رحمه الله he said عجبت لقومن I am amazed with the people عرفوا الإسلام they came to know the chain of narration meaning they know the ahadiths و صحة و they know the authenticity of these hadiths I'm amazed I'm a people who know the hadiths they even know they memorized the hadith they know its chain of narration they know its authenticity they are aware of it فدا يدهبون إلى رأي صفيان and then they go leave the hadiths and they go towards the opinions of who صفيان الثوري they have a qa'idah they have a hadith here they leave those and they go to the opinion of صفيان الثوري صفيان is an Imam و الله تعالى يقول أن الله is saying in the Quran فليحدة للذين يخالفون عن أمره أن تصيبهم فتنة أو يصيبهم عذاب و قليب be cautious and warned الذين يخالفون عن أمره those who are opposing الله's commands and toصيبهم فتنة that a child and a tribulation will afford them أو يصيبهم عذاب و قليب or that they are going to encounter a severe punishment the day of judgment صفيان الثوري was calling into مسألة عقدية and I was going against or مسألة فقية مسألة فقية صفيان الثوري is an Imam من عقيدة he wasn't saying anything that was going against عقيدة so then رحمه الله is saying a fiqh issue that they see the soffian's opinion and there's an ayah and a hadith in this مسألة it's a fiqh issue they are going and they are doing what they are leaving the ayat and the Quran and they are taking the opinion of soffian al-Thouriu and the مسألة مسألة فقية في فروع المسائل it's a sub-branch of the religion it's not even the issues but Imam Ahmad is upset with this you have an ayah in this matter even if it's a sub-branch how then what do you then think people are going against the Kitab of the Sunnah in matters which are أصول fundamentals دعوة فوز under the fundamental issues of the religion دعوة is مسألة من هجية it means أصول الدين it's not mean فروع الدين and even if it is from the from the from the from the from the from the are you with me brothers and here we have أحمد رحمة الله being upset in a is that it ابن عباس look what he said he said you Shekou you guys are very close and to نزل عليكم that he sent upon you هجارة من السماء rocks are going to be thrown at you from the I say I'm saying to you قال الله الله said I'm saying to you قال ال-رسول the messenger أنكم يأتيون و يقولون to me قال أبو بكر و عمر أبو بكر و عمر سلسل أبو بكر و عمر قوادي عليكم بسنتي و سنة الخلفاء الراجلين المهديين من بعد عضوا عليها بالنواجد و كمان لتفلو أبو بكر و كمان لتفلو عمر في هذه الحبيت of the Prophet صح but even then if أبو بكر و عمر go against an ayah in the Quran or a hadith of the Prophet عبدالله من عباس did not accept their opinion and he didn't let the people accept their opinion and this is a question of wazawat it is a question of fiqh it is a fiqh related matter it is a question of tamattu' بالعمرة والحج it is a question of tamattu' عبدالله من عباس from the Quran which is wad و is a question of ماستي صر من الحج عزر آية من the Quran آية which is محكمة he had a crystal clear verse in front of him he also has the Prophet's actions meaning we did tamattu' in حجة الودع when the Prophet was in the front of us the Prophet did not do tamattu' but some of the companions did tamattu' the Prophet told them to change their intention and to do tamattu' now if the Prophet said من أمري ما استقبالته إذا كنت أردت في الوقت و أردت أن أردت مجدداً سأقوم بعمل تمتر المجموعة قال ذلك عبدالله ابن عباس has all those evidence in front of him He has the opinion of his own father, his dad عمر عبدالله ابن عمر also said the same by the way عبدالله ابن عباس has said it here ابن عمر was the same they came to him and they asked him and they said your father said my father his opinion is not accepted I have called Allah and the prophet said same issue عبدالله ابن عمر he said my father عمر his opinion is not going to be taken why? because I have the opinion I have the adilla from the Quran and the sunnah the Sahabas didn't come to عبدالله ابن عباس and they didn't say to him who are you to oppose these great mountains صح? did they say that to him how old was عبدالله ابن عباس when the prophet died 13? 14? 15 the biggest quality is 15 but because he had the evidence with him everyone was cried and they left him they are the two most noble people on the face of this earth after the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم أبو بكران عمر right when they went against the evidence and they opposed it عبدالله ابن عباس he stuck to the qa'idah which is what مصدر التشريع والدعوة والعبادة is from where? هو القرآن والسنة الصحيحة is from the Quran and it's from the authentic sunnah are you with me brothers so when we come across a matter like this we should not sway of however big that person may be the matter is where does the evidence lie that qa'idah is very powerful والله my beloved brothers and sisters if you traveled to China for this qa'idah and you came back just this qa'idah you had China nothing else just this and you came back and you learned this principle alone يا اخوة this journey of yours would be worthwhile it would be a journey that was worthwhile you traveled for something very honorable صلاحة the third qa'idah القاعدة القاعدة الثالثة الثاد قاعدة أن أهل السنة والجماعة أهل السنة والجماعة لا يستقلون بفهم القرآن عن السنة pay attention أهل السنة والجماعة هو أهل السنة والجماعة they are a people who are holding on to the sunnah from the name what does it say? سنة they are the people of the sunnah they befriended the sunnah they live by the sunnah والجماعة and they are united upon the sunnah they are not united upon ideologies they are not united upon man-made laws and constitutions what united them is the sunnah you see that they have different ethnicities they have different backgrounds they have different upbringing but all of them what united them what brought them together the sunnah united them what united them the sunnah but they are أهل السنة يا إخوة you can't unite with somebody if there's nothing that's going to unite you can you? if we say everybody use your logic I use my logic you use your logic you use your logic we all tell everybody to use their logic hey whose logic is going to bring us together does that make sense? we won't agree because I think in a particular way you on the other hand thinking in another way I think what I'm saying is right you think what you're saying is right our way of thinking is different there has to be something that brings us together and the thing that can bring us together is a divine law it's a shara'a from Allah سبحانه وتعالى that's why Ahlul Bida'a always called what Ahlul Bida'i والفرقة you know why? innovation brings disunity فرقة comes from Bida'a أبو مظفر السمعاني رحمه الله زبوك قد انتصار أهل الحليث he mentions that if you travel the earth and you go around the earth and you meet a person of the sunnah wherever they are they all speak the same you meet one here in Africa you meet one in China you meet one in India you meet one in Europe you meet one in America you meet one in Brazil Iceland the Antarctic wherever you go it's freezing I'll still tell you this one another way it is it's in the cold I know Iceland is Iceland not cold is it? it's normal right? but the Antarctic is cold right? yeah? yeah? it is right? he's dead قال الله قال الله سبحانه وتعالى he's giving the evidence the way it is wherever you go the Chinese one he'll tell you in his language they've never met each other but what's bringing them together why are they all speaking the same why are they all united from their speech the reason why they're united is because أخذوا من منبع صافي they took from a pure source are you with me brothers so أهل السنة والجماعة لا يستقلون أهل السنة they don't understand the Quran independent from the sunnah أن أهل السنة والجماعة لا يستقلون بفهم القرآن عن السنة they don't understand the Quran independent from the sunnah are you with me in other words their understanding of the Quran is cupped with the understanding of what of the sunnah they used the sunnah to understand the Quran they used the sunnah to understand the Quran because Allah تعالى commanded them يا إيه الذين آمنوا those of you who believe أطيع الله أبي الله وأطيع الرسولة أبي the messenger وأقولوا الأمر منكم أبي those who have authority over you فإن تنازعتم if you dispute one another في شيء إن إن أني ماتا في شيء إن فإن شرطية right شرط في سياق النهي في سياق النهي في سياق النهي في سياق الشرطة تفيد العموم right فإن تنازعتم if you differ if you differ إذا ماتا here it says في شيء إن إن أني ماتا أني ماتا أني ماتا when we do فردوه إلى الله ورسوله bring it back to Allah so what do they bring it back to they bring it to Allah and a messenger they don't just bring it to the Quran this is where the منكيري السنة are refuted the people who reject the Quran are Sunnah and they say we don't believe the Sunnah so what about Allah stayman here فردوه إلى الله ورسوله he will say to you but this ayah was talking about when the prophet was alive hey why have you restricted it to that meaning because the Quran is it going to be implemented until the day of judgment he will say to you yes the Quran will be implemented until the day of judgment and so this part do you say that this part is not we're not going to no longer implement it is that what you're saying ورسول because the Rasool صلى الله عليه وسلم we take it back to Sunnah now they still take it we still take it back to him are you with me brothers also Allah says وَأَنْزَلْا إِلَيْكَ ذِكْرَا لِتُمَيِّنَا لِنَّاسِ ما نُزِّلَ إِلَيْهُم نبي الله محمد الله says to the prophet وَأَنْزَلْنَا وِيْسَنَا وِيسَنْ دَوْنَا what did we send down وَأَنْزَلْفَعُنَا لَكْتِ ذِكْرَا وِيسَهْنَا وِيسَنْ دَوْنَا وِيحَانْا عَنْجَيْنَا وَامْتِ عَنْزرَا إِلْيكَا ذِيكْرَا we send down the Qur'an وَا menuzdel... why did we send the Qur'an on you و اين your send the Qur'an on you when we send the Qur'an on you لِitu بَيِّنَّا why did we send you لتو بَيَّنَّا We need to clarify the Qur'an on you to clarify the Qur'an To clarify the Qur'an النساء آية 59. also Allah سبحانه وتعالى يسير صورة النور آية 60 آية 63 الله يقول فليحذرين الذين يخالفون عن أمره be cautious of those who are opposing his command meaning who's command the message عن أمره اي أمر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم and to see them fit now that they will be afflicted with a trial and tribulation or you'll see them عذاب ونقليم or that they will be afflicted the day of judgment with a severe punishment the message سلينا حديث الامام أحمد أبو داود انترملي they narrated it الشيخ محمد ناصر الدينة الألباني authenticated it in his صحيحة بداود حديث 1294 that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم يسلم على اني أوتيت القرآن ومثله مع the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم I have been given the Quran and the likes of the Quran I have been given it ألا يشكوا رجل شبعان على أريكة A man who is full stomach is full and he's leaning on his what أريكة he's leaning on a pillow whatever he's leaning sideways يقولوا this person will come and he will say to you عليكم بهذا القرآن upon you is the Quran فما وجدتم فيه من حلال فأحلوه وما وجدتم فيه من حرام فحرموه he will say anything you find in the Quran make it halal wherever the Quran makes halal make it halal wherever the Quran makes it haram make it haram that's what you say in other words all he wants to take is the what the Quran the Prophet said people I have come with the likes of the Quran so he already told us they're going to come and people are going to reject the sunnah we're only going to say that we want to take that the Quran the Prophet advised us the Prophet advised us an advice that was very strong the hearts they moved from it وضرافة منها العيون and the eyes started to water the sahab started to cry from the reminder that the Prophet was giving them the hearts started to move فقلت يا رسول الله I said I'll mention you of Allah كأنها موعدة موديعين فأوصينها it's like it's a farewell an advice that you're giving us I'll mention you of Allah advises us then the messenger said I advise you to be conscious of Allah وستمع وطاعة until listen and obey your leaders وإن تأمر عليكم عبدالحبشي even if the person who is placed in charge of you is an Abyssinian slave he's a slave the Arabs wouldn't allow that but even if he is وإنهما يعيش منكم then the Prophet said whoever from amongst you lives فسا يرخ تلافن كثيرا he's going to see a lot of disputes pay attention are we seeing that today are we seeing a lot of disputes brothers and sisters I'm asking a question are we seeing a lot of disputes as the Prophet told us we go to a masjid this masjid is called Masjid Fulan we go to this masjid they believe this you go to this masjid they believe this you go to this place they believe this everyone believes something everyone is saying what they are upon is upon the Haq the Prophet told us this وإنهما يعيش منكم whoever from amongst you lives فسا يرخ تلافن كثيرا he's going to see a lot of disputes and a lot of differences and so what should we do our Rasool الله when this happens فعليكم بسنة upon you is my sunnah وسنة الخلفاء الراجدين المهديين and the sunnah on my right they guide it خلفاء أضوا عليها بالنواجد hold on to that sunnah with your molatith you're right if you put if something goes into your molatith and you hold on to it when you let go of it you're grinding you're holding it on to it that's how you need to hold on to this sunnah يا إخوة don't let it go don't let even the slightest move away from you hold on to it tough وإيا أبنى واجد وإيا كما بحتاتي الأمور and stay away from the newly invented matters فإنه كل بداعة البلالة for verily every newly invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is misguidance and the narration of sunnah says that every misguidance will lead you to the it will lead to the hellfire so this hadith has told us that everybody is going to claim that they are upon the truth everybody is going to tell you that they are the guided people but the prophet didn't say to you well it's subjective it's subjective it depends on how you look at it he didn't use those philosophical arguments yeah the prophet told us there's a concrete truth within everybody's argument the truth still is there and that truth is what hold on to the sunnah so which group is right is going to be seen if they are in accordance to the sunnah if we find sunnahs that you don't want to implement that you are going against then can you claim that you are going to the Qur'an and the sunnah I am asking you brothers no
