 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيم الحمد لله يا رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وأشد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهد السبيل وأشد أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم مدين أما بعد إن شاء الله التعالى today's benefit is going to be the ayah in Surah Al-Qiyamah ayah 14 to ayah 15 in which Allah سبحانه وتعالى He says بل الإنسان على نفسه بصيره ولو ألقى معاذيره الله سبحانه وتعالى He says rather than human being He is one who has insight of himself He has very well knowledge of himself ولو ألقى معاذيره even if he puts forward excuses The person is one who knows himself very well he knows himself and even if he tries to bring excuses forward the truth and the reality is you know yourself This ayah or these two verses they teach us how to deal with ourselves and how to cure our problems that we may have and it is also a stepping stone a ladder of how to purify your soul الله سبحانه وتعالى in Surah Al-Shams 11 places الله سبحانه وتعالى He makes an oath He says 11 verses and from of those is The verse where الله سبحانه وتعالى He says Verily Prosperity is for the one who purifies his soul He purifies his heart He purifies himself So this ayah that we are taking today which is It's a surah It's a ladder to getting to purify your nafs and it is you as an individual you know what you're saying you know what you're doing and you know exactly your intent behind everything you say and you do even if you try to put forward excuses explanations there's no proof against you greater than yourself and it's amazing because الله سبحانه وتعالى He said بل الإنسان وعلى نفسه بصيره الله use the word بصيره He use that word دون غيرها من الألفاض without using any other term without using any other word الله سبحانه وتعالى specifically chose to use the word بصيره because بصيره what is in it or in the meaning of بصيره is that this thing is clear cut proof there is no darkness or taint on it it's is clear cut proof it's like somebody saying to you أنت حجه على نفسك you are a proof against yourself and that's why you find in the كتابة تحرير والتنوير بايم لعشور that he says وقد جارت هذه الجملة this sentence or this verse it has taken the path مجر المثالي it became a parable it became a proverb لإيجازها وفرة معانيها because of how summarized it is and how strong and powerful the meaning that is in it is this ayah brothers it falls in مجالات كثيرة في واقعنا it falls in our life you can apply this verse if truly it is pondered on and it's understood properly it could be put into many situations of our life whether it's general matters or specific matters some of them I'm going to mention so we can benefit from it and perfect our situation and our our dealings number one this ayah can be used for those people who when they deal with the textual evidences نصوص الوحيين الكتاب والسنة and they know that the evidences have been established on them the proof has been brought to them the clear cut proof in which the scholars have not differed the scholars they have not differed in what في دلالاته what this meaning of this verse means somebody comes up to you and he brings you an ayah and he says to آخي look at the verse and this look what you're doing and this is the verse of Allah سبحانه وتعالى the scholars they have not differed on what this verse means and what you're doing falls under this verse the prohibition here and you're still doing it you find a lot of people instead of accepting it he throws forward those excuses he tries to deflect the text why لأنه لم يوافق هو because it's not in accordance to his whims and desires if you go to the كتاب رسالة التبوذ رسالة by ابن القيّم رحمه الله his كتاب كتاب أتبوكية يبن القيّم رحمه الله which is also known as الزاد المهاجر it's called الزاد المهاجر يبن القيّم رحمه الله he mentions this point regarding this ayah and ابن الجوزي رحمه الله he has a statement in his كتاب سيد الخاطر that one can find benefit from it in regards to that particular verse being used in the مجال the one who wants to deflect the evidence also this verse can be applied on those who follow the mistakes of people they sit down to get people's mistakes بتتبع أخطاء الناس يعيوبه he sits down just to find people's shortcomings and their mistakes while مع غفلة عن عيوب نفسه while he is heedless of his own mistakes and his own shortcomings and that is one of the explanations that قتادت ابن الدعمة السدوسي رحمه الله he put regard in this ayah بلي الإنسان وعلى نفسه بصيره he said رحمه الله that if you want والله بي الله he said if you wish والله رأيته بصيرا بعيوب الناس وذنوبهم you see that he has insight of the people's shortcomings and their mistakes غافلة عن ذروبه but he is heedless of his own ones and and that my brothers is what this is والله it is a problem and it is من علامات الخضلان and it is from the signs of Allah سبحانه وتعالى is destroy you and that is exactly what بكر ابن عبد الله المزن رحمه الله he said إذا رأيته إذا رأيتم if you guys see a man who stands up to get the people's mistakes ناسين لعيوبه but he is forgetful of his own mistakes فعلموا and know that Allah has been deceived or that he has been deceived know that that individual has been deceived so بلي الإنسان وعلى نفسه بصيره ولو you know yourself very well even if you give as much excuses as you as you will also this can be applied for those people my brothers who debate for themselves they argue for themselves in places which their mistakes have become clear to them اللي تبينا فيها خطأه he knows what he said did is wrong and he is convinced that what he is doing and what he is saying or what he was doing was wrong and he brought it regarding that meaning as he said بلي الإنسان وعلى نفسه بصيره ولو القامة عذيره فإنه يعتذير عن نفسه بأعدار he will give excuses for himself excuses ويجأدوا عنها and he argues for himself وهو يبصيرها بخلاف ذلك even though he sees himself to be opposite to what he is arguing for so my brothers ابن حزم رحمه الله يجب أن يقوم بعمل I used to have mistakes and he said I never remain except exercising and I am trying to look for the mistakes that are in me how I could work on them because my brothers one knowing and acknowledging himself to be short in a matter and adhering to the commands of Allah by saying I am wrong because knowing yourself is something as نبي الله عيوب عليه السلام and you see this all in the prophets this is the مقامة of the prophets and the صالحين it is the path of the truthful ones the righteous ones the prophets look for example you see نبي الله and نبي الله our father what did he say when they ate from the tree when they ate from the tree what did they say we have transgressed on ourselves and if you don't forgive us and you don't have mercy and you don't have mercy upon us because we will be destroyed نوح عليه السلام what did he say this is when Allah prohibited him from asking that which he had no knowledge for this is after he wanted his son to be saved and he spoke and Allah prohibited him from asking something he has no knowledge for look what he did straight away قال رب إني أعود بك أو الله I see a refugee in you and I asked for me to ask ما ليس لي به علمون that which I have no knowledge of وإلا تغفلي and if you don't forgive me وترحمني and if you don't have mercy upon me أكوننا من الخاصرين أكون من الخاصرين I'm going to be from the destroyed ones you find نبي اللهي موسى عليه السلام نبي اللهي موسى ندي من على قتله القبطي when he killed him when he killed the قبطي نبي اللهي موسى عليه السلام نبي اللهي موسى عليه السلام when he punched the قبطي and he killed him when he died what did he do رب إني ظلمت نفسي فغفلي فغفر له إنه هو الغفر رحل all of them are saying أو الله or my Lord I have transgressed I my soul has transgressed so all of them you find they affirm and they acknowledge their show comes ولي ذلك الشيخ وليسام بيبنو تيم يسد واني بوضي آية وآخرون اعترفوا بذنوبهم خلط وعمل الصالحة وآخر سيئا عسى الله أن يتوب عليهم إن الله غفور الرحيم والله تبارك واتعالى he spoke about this about some people who وآخر وآخرون اعترفوا بذنوبهم some of them they acknowledge their mistakes you see they make mistakes with righteous actions and some of them they came with sins they all acknowledged asked Allah for forgiveness الله سبحانه وتعالى was one that forgave them يبلو تيم يسد فعليما it was known just by that verse told us أنما لم يعترف بذنبه the one who does not recognize his mistakes كان من المنافقين he's from the hypocrites because the Aya affirms that the منافقين were not ones who acknowledged their mistakes the believers are the ones who came back to Allah and they ask for forgiveness but the منافقين they did it and so we ask Allah to make us from those who acknowledge their mistakes and that which their soul really is and knows their position not to pretend what you're not and to act like what you're not but to be one who knows himself that فهائدة was regarding the Aya بل الإنسان وعلى نفسه بصيره ولو القامة عذيرة ويكملوديا فهذا السلام عليكم سبحانك الله ومحمدك أشد بالله إلهي الله أستغفرك واتولي
