 وَأَقُولُ فِي القُرْآنِ مَا جَاءَتْ بِهِ آيَاتُوهُ فَهُوَ الْكَارِيمُ الْمُنْزَالُهُ وَأَقُولُ قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ وَالْمُصْطَافَ الْهَاديِ وَلَا أَتْ أَوْوَالُهُ الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وشد الله إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وشدوا أن سيدنا ولبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد We stopped at what the author, رحمه الله, said in the Kitab, أخلاقه حملت القرآن He said رحمده على قديم إحسانه وتواتور نعمه حمد من يعلم أن مولاه الكريم علمه ما لم يكن يعلم The author here he says The praise that I'm praising Allah SWT It is the praise of the one who knows أن مولاه that is master, الكريمه the generous master علمه he taught him ما لم يكن يعلم that which he didn't know From the blessings that Allah SWT has bestowed upon me the author is saying that I am showing gratitude and I'm praising my Lord for is that he has taught me that which I didn't know And the author is taking this from the ayah وعلما كما لم تكن تعلم وكان فضل الله عليك عظيمة Your Lord taught you Muhammad that which he didn't know وكان فضل الله عليك عظيمة And the blessings of your Lord and the virtue that your Lord has bestowed upon you is vast That is what Allah SWT is saying to the Prophet SAW And if that was said to the Prophet then definitely the same is for us as well Allah SWT he taught us that which we never knew Every day we're learning new things Who is the one that is giving us the ability to comprehend and understand And learn from life experiences Gain Islamic knowledges Gain academic sciences It's Allah SWT ولي ذلك Understanding this blessing And really comprehending it Is truly a sign of Eman ولي ذلك In the hadith the Prophet SAW used to say أبو أولك بنعمتك عليك والله سبحانه وتعالى I'm showing you gratitude For the blessings that you have bestowed upon you So the person should be And the individual who does that وكان فضله عليه عظيمة And his blessings And virtues on him are vast So he's taking it from the ayah It's an اقتباس From the ayah وعلم كما لم تكن تعلم وكان فضله عليك عظيمة Is where he took it from وأسأله I ask Allah SWT المزيد من فضله I ask Allah SWT For extra And more Of his virtues That's what I ask for The author is saying We want more from him And as I said to you before The blessings of Allah are two types A blessing that's already there And a blessing That is missing from you So he's saying الله سبحانه وتعالى The blessings that you have given to us We are thankful for it And we also want more And I mentioned the ayah وإذ تأددنا ربكا وإذ تأددنا ربكم لإن شكرتهم لأزيد النكم ولإن كفرتهم إن عذابي لشديد So Allah SWT tells us in His verse That if we show gratitude To the blessings of Allah That He Allah SWT will increase it For us So the author is asking Allah For more blessings وأسأله who I ask him المزيد من فضله وشكرا And gratitude على ما تفضله به من عمه And I show gratitude On that which He has bestowed سبحانه وتعالى From His blessings إنه ذو فضلين عظيم الله سبحانه وتعالى Is what? He is one That has Large Great Vast Amount of Virtue سبحانه وتعالى لذلك this is similar To a statement You said In the beginning of His Kitab الرسالة He said الحمد لله الحمد لله الذي praises to Allah The one لا يؤدى شكره نعمة من نعمه إلا بنعمة منه توجب على مؤدي ماضية نعمه بأدائها نعمة حادثة يجب عليه شكره بها This statement Of the author here Is similar to a statement Of an Imam الشافعي That he mentions In the مقدمة Of His Kitab الرسالة And that is The author here Is Asking Allah سبحانه وتعالى To give him the ability To show gratitude Okay And Showing gratitude To Allah Is a blessing itself From the blessings Of Allah سبحانه وتعالى That come from him And the author الشافعي Mentioned something similar To that In his Kitab الرسالة The author then says وصل الله على سيدنا محمد صلاة بين هو على سيدنا أو ماصة محمد نبي الله محمد عبده His slave ورسوله And his messenger نبي الله محمد His His station And his level Is in these two words Which is That he is a slave And he's a messenger He's not an ordinary slave He's a messenger But he's not a divine law That is worshipped He's not a God That is worshipped He's not an Allah That is worshipped He's a slave But he's not an ordinary slave We don't treat him like Us He's better than us He's higher than us Even that is the station That we give him صلى الله عليه وسلم We put him up Than an ordinary slave And we also Put him Lower Than reaching the level Of Uluhiyah We're never going to believe He's an ilah That's worshipped Okay وأمينه على وحيه وعباده The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم He was entrusted With what? The revelation Allah trusted The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم With the revelation الله أعلم وحيث ويجعله رسالة Allah knows Who is going to give the message to And Allah chose him He was chosen عليه الصلاة والسلام For this message And Allah also entrusted him To convey it to his slaves That was something Allah Interested him with سبحانه وتعالى صلاة تكون له رضا ولنا بها مغفرة I send He said Salutation Upon our Prophet Our Sayyid Our Master محمد The slave of Allah And the message of Allah He's Prophet The one Allah Interested With the revelation To convey it to the creation صلاة Peace تكون له رضا That will be for him الرضا That which will be Pleasing for him صلى الله عليه وسلم ولنا بها And for us It will be مغفرة تون A forgiveness يعني The Salah That I'm asking For the Prophet It's that which is going to bring him Happiness and contentment And it's also going to be for us What Forgiveness to the author He's saying وعلى آله And the Prophet's family أجمعين are all of them All of the Prophet's family عليه الصلاة والسلام Since the author didn't say وصحبي And his companions We believe that the Sahabahs Are now under the alihi They are falling under the alihi In this place وعلى آله His family And his companions أجمعين are all of them The word Salah What is the correct opinion regarding it The word Salah The strongest opinion regarding it Is that it means Allah praises the Prophet In the gathering of the angels Allah praises him سبحانه وتعالى وسلم كثيرا طيبة سلامنا means what سلام means peace Okay كثيرا طيبة كثيرا means large And a lot And طيبة means good أما بعدو To proceed And the scholars They differed amongst themselves Who was the first person To say أما بعدو Who was the first person To say أما بعدو Some of the scholars Actually said That the first person To actually say أما بعدو Was نبي الله داود And it's What Allah referred to In the Quran as وآتيناه فصل الخطاب We gave him داود فصل الخطاب يعني أما بعدو Subscriber to the Sibat And Allah knows best فإني قائلون The author says I'm going to say here I'm going to say what I'm going to say here و بالله أثقوا And in Allah I trust لتوفيق الصوابي That Allah gives me the ability In getting it right من القول in speech و العملي in action و لا قوة There is no strength إلا بالله Excepting Allah سبحانه وتعالى العلي العظيم The one who is high And the one who is great Okay إلا بالله Excepting Allah العلي And Allah تبارك وتعالى The علو that he has is three types علو ذاتن He Allah تبارك وتعالى Is a buffy stone علو قهرن Allah تبارك وتعالى He is powerful Over his creation He has the control over his creation And the third one is علو قهرن Which is Allah is Station wise And position wise He is greater than his creation We can never equal Allah to the creation His Station is greater than the station of the creation So إلا بالله العلي العظيم أنزل الله And Allah sent down القرآن And Allah sent down the Quran علي النبيه صلى الله عليه وسلم And Allah sent the Quran Down on his Prophet يعني نبي الله يبحمد And Allah sent it down The author is going to be many verses for that إن شاء الله وتعالى وأعلمه فضل ما انزل عليه And Allah سبحانه وتعالى He taught the Prophet The virtue of what he has sent on him وأعلم خلقه في كتابه And Allah سبحانه وتعالى أجيكت القرآن في القرآن وماذا هو القرآن وعلى لساني رسوله ومساعداً في تنقل الله صلى الله عليه وسلم الله سبحانه وتعالى وخبرنا القرآن وقرآن أن القرآن إصمت اللي منئت تصم به That which Allah وتعالى taught us about the virtue of the Quran And the Prophet told us of the virtue of the Quran is that anyone who holds onto the Quran he's going to be infallible يعني he's going to be far from mistakes and errors If you want to be errorless يعني if you want to not do a mistake then follow the Quran When you fall into a mistake is when you turn away from the Quran That's what Allah said in the Quran سبحانه وتعالى فمن تبعه داية فلا يضل ولا يشقى ومن أعرب عن ذكري فإن له معيشة وضنكة ونحشوره يوم القيامة أعمى فمن تبعه داية anyone who follows the guidance يعني the Quran and also the Sunnah What will not happen to him What isn't going to happen to you is that you're not going to be misguided in this earth and in the hereafter you're not going to be from the dwellers of the Hellfire That's not going to happen to you Also by holding onto the Quran is what وهودة its guidance لمن اهتدى به the person who takes it as a guidance The Quran will guide you as Allah says in the Quran إن هذا القرآن يهدي للتهي أقومه ويبشر المؤمنين الذين يعملون الصالحاتي أن لهم أجرا كبيرة Allah mentions here إن هذا القرآن يهدي للتهي أقومه The Quran guides you to the best of the first ويبشر المؤمنين عن The Quran ويبشر المؤمنين And the Quran guides what The believers Which ones الذين يعملون الصالحاتي The ones that do righteous actions The believers who are consistent in doing righteous actions الله سبحانه وتعالى He mentioned أن لهم أجرا كبيرة For them is what أجر reward كبيرة vast reward A lot of rewards for them So they're not just people who merely say I believe But what they did is They coupled With their statement of saying I believe They coupled it with righteous actions That's what Allah سبحانه وتعالى He said الذين يعملون الصالحاتي Those who are doing righteous actions Righteous actions means It's done with sincerity And it's also done in accordance To the Sunnah of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم If you do that The Quran is going to guide you To the best of the first يعني this Quran A group of people read it And all they take from it is what? Misguidance Confusion Heart And another group of people read the Quran And they take guidance And bliss And prosperity And tranquility Because the Quran It guides the believers يعني the believers When they come to the Quran They come with an open heart and mind They know that they're salvation They know their happiness They know their prosperity They know their bliss Is all connected to this book من أرادة الدنيا فليتعلم القرآن Anyone who wants the dunya Learn the Quran ومن أرادة الآخرة فليتعلم القرآن The one who wants the Akhra Learn the Quran ومن أرادهم Anyone who wants both of them يعني دنيا والآخرة فليتعلم القرآن Learn the Quran يعني القرآن It will give you the best in this dunya And it will give you the best of the hereafter And it will also give you the best of both worlds You see ولي ذلك دس آية إن هذا القرآن يهدي للتي هي أقوم ويبشر المؤمنين الذين يعملون الصارحاتي أن لهم أجرا كبيرة I encourage you all to go to the Kitab أضواء البيان في إضاح القرآن بالقرآن باي العلامة محمد الأمين الشنقيطي رحمه الله In the تفسير of this آية سبحان الله الشيخ He went deeply into it And he showed how the Quran guides to the best of affairs يعني The sheikh He went in details So go to it It's in Surat Al-Isra'a ayah 9 محمد الأمين الشنقيطي You prove that the Quran guides in the best of affairs in توحيد In our marital issues In our economical issues In the rights of men and women In animal rights يعني Every fill the Quran guides us to the best of affairs But when we become distant from the Quran And we abandon the Quran And we toss the Quran over our shoulders We are in the current state that we're in See we are in the current state that we're in So we need to turn back to the Quran Look for guidance in it And a lot of us when we come to the Quran We come to the Quran with a preconceived notion And we read the Quran as though we want the Quran To bend to our desires We want the Quran to follow us We want the Quran to do what we want And not the opposite The reverse way Which is that the Quran is the thing that we need to be following It's the Quran that we need to be taken its way So this is important وغينا the Quran brings richness لما يستغنى به If you take the Quran And you live by the Quran Allah is going to bring you richness يعني you're going to feel contentment Even if you have little money Even if you have little money And you don't have much The Quran will bring richness to you وليذلك أرمام البخاري والمسلم Both narrated That the Prophet ﷺ He told us that the children of Adam Nothing can actually fill them up The Prophet ﷺ said لو كان لبنى آدم If it was for the children of Adam وادين من دهبين If they had a valley of gold If the children of Adam Was to have a valley of gold يعني سبحان الله Whole entire valley of gold أحب أن له وادين أخرى The person would wish he had another valley of gold He's got one valley of gold And he'll say I wish I يعني سبحان الله I once met a brother He was a millionaire And he said I wish I had too many And he's got a million He said I wish I had two million But I said he got a million The children of Adam That's how they are Have you ever seen in your life Have you ever come across a person who said You know what I'm rich I don't want no more money That's it I don't want no more money Have you ever seen anyone say that That's the problem with the children of Adam لو كان لبنى آدم If it was for the children of Adam وادين من دهبين If he had a valley of gold The thing he would want And he would desire is أحب أن لهوا دين آخر He would wish he had another valley وَلَا يَمْلَأَ The Prophet said there's nothing that's going to fill فَاهُ The mouth of the children of Adam There's nothing else that's going to fill it إلا تُرَابُ Except the dust And the sand That's the only thing that's going to fill The mouth and the stomach Of the children of Adam والله يتوبه علامتان And Allah accepts the repentance Of the one who repents So what we learned from this is that brothers and sisters What is the only thing that can make your heart content يعني إذا دينار ودرهم Cannot actually make you content يعني مني However rich you are You won't be happy necessarily Money doesn't necessarily bring happiness That's important you understand me لكن القرآن It brings you happiness ألا بذكر الله تطمئن القلوب وعلي in the remembrance of your Lord This is the heart find tranquility يعني you find طوما إنينا السكينة Tranquility You see How many people have we heard Or read or seen Or come across Who were rich extremely rich But they committed suicide And they chose to leave this world They had everything They had wealth They had money They had properties They had commodities They had businesses They had everything مع ذلك They wanted to die They didn't want to live this life anymore The reason is because their heart The heart dehydrated And once the heart dehydrates My beloved brothers and sisters Suicidal thoughts The person doesn't want to live anymore He wants to leave this world So the Qur'an brings richness وحرز من النار لمن التبع لمن التبع The Qur'an is a hearse It's a fortress من النار from the Hellfire A hearse It protects you The Qur'an It's a wakin من النار وجنة It's a shield From the Hellfire لمن التبع The one who follows it If you follow the Qur'an The Qur'an is a shield That protects you from the Hellfire It will You will not enter the Hellfire It will protect you from it وانورون The Sheikh says It's a light لمن استنار به The person who takes this Qur'an as a light The Qur'an is a light That's what Allah says in many places وانزلنا إليكم نورا مبينة We have sent On you وانزلنا إليكم We have sent on all of you guys نورا مبينة A clear light وصونا نذعي الله says وكذلك أوحينا إليك روحا من أمرنا ما كنت تدريم الكتاب ولا الإيمان ولكن جعلناه نورا نهدي به من نشأ منه بادنا نورا الله يفتح The Qur'an as a light When other people are in darknesses And They are lost and blind And they can't see where they are walking towards The person of the Qur'an He is upon what نورا على نور يهدي الله لنوره من يشاء You are light upon light That's what you have وشفاء لما فيصدور The Qur'an is a what The Qur'an is A cure It's a cure The Qur'an kills And it kills the person from the two types of illnesses there are مرض الشبهة ومرض الشهوة It cures you from the illnesses of desires And it also cures you from the illnesses of doubts And if you open this Qur'an If you read this Qur'an It will remove any doubt in your heart يعني the doubt of شرك And disbelief of Allah And atheism and being agnostic If you read the Qur'an It will eradicate all of that And it will get rid of all of that The Qur'an will do that It will also cure The desires The شهوة That's burning inside the person The Qur'an Has cure for it It has a what It has It has cures for it ولي ذلك That's why Allah said in the Qur'an وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْانِ مَهُ وَشِفَاءَ We have sent down the Qur'an as a cure وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْانِ Some of the scholars Some of the people were like Have understood from that The Qur'an is not a cure In its entirety So they said No, the Qur'an is not a cure Because Allah said in the ayah وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْانِ From the Qur'an We have made a cure يعني from the Qur'an Not all of the Qur'an And this is wrong And a weakness on the side of the person Who is commenting on this verse What we say is وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْانِ This mean here It's not تبعضية It's not some of the Qur'an It's bian and diligence إبن القيه mentions it in his كتاب الدواب الكافي Or in his other كتاب دا ودواب Whichever one of those names you want to call it So it's important that you understand this This point إن شاء الله وتعالى So what does it mean here? It means الله وسبحانا وتعالها Sent down the Qur'an as a cure وشفاء لما في الصدور وهودا And the Qur'an is a guidance ورحمة And it's a mercy فهو للمؤمنينة for the believers the Quran is a guidance guidance what does it mean it means that the Quran guides to two things this is very important the Quran's guidance like in guiding us to what beneficial knowledge and righteous action that's what the Quran is guiding us every moment we read the Quran it's teaching us new information and also what is that the Quran is guiding us to the Quran is guiding us to a righteous action that we perfect our actions and we learn to come with more and more actions but we couple our actions with beneficial knowledge as well so we don't just become a people who are doing things but we don't have no knowledge or we don't become a people who have knowledge and understanding but we don't implement what we have learnt or understood وراحمة والرحمة here means what the beneficial knowledge and the righteous actions that you have come with الله is gonna give you His mercy in what in taking to جنة because we can't enter jannah because of our own actions the صحاب is a prophet ﷺ he said to them ليدخل أحدكم الجنة بعملي فنحد of you are going to enter because of his actions and then the Sahab as they said وَلَاْ إِنْتَيَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ even you or the Messenger of Allah the Prophet said even me إِلَّا إِيَّةَ غَمَّدَاً يَلَّهُ بِرَحْمَةِ مِنْهُ وَفَضُّلاً unless Allah bestows his mercy upon me there is no other way for me to enter the heaven so you having beneficial knowledge and righteous action is not enough to take you to the heaven it has to be with Allah who is Subhanahu و تعالى الله و سبحانه و تعالى is mercy I'm going to stop there insha'Allah و تعالى anything which I have said that was wrong or incorrect is from me and Shaytan and Allah and his Messenger are free from it سبحانك الله و بحمدك أشهد والله إلهي لله أستغفر و كورته و إليه السلام عليكم if you're enjoying these videos and you'd like to keep up to date with all of the courses we're going to be running make sure you head over to amauathome.com
