 السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والصلاة والسلام علي سيدنا ونبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم يا ربنا لك الحمد كما ينبغي لجلال وجه كوعظي مسلطانك اللهم يمقلب القلوب والأبصار ثبت قلوبنا على دينك اللهم افتح لنا افتح العارفين يا الرحمن الرحيم بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم today إن شاء الله we will be starting a new series إن شاء الله to cover صورة the تفسير of صورة الكهف so we all know that يدن محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم سيد من قرأ صورة الكهف في يوم الجمعة اضاء له من النور ما بين الجمعتين جميعا رأي صورة الكهف في فردة ثم يدن محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم بين فردة صورة الكهف is one of the so much repeated and read صورة in the in the in the Quran people like to read it always on يوم الجمعة on Friday so now when we go through the صورة we will realize how amazing this صورة is صورة الكهف is a مكي صورة and we know that when we say مكي صورة we mean that it was revealed before migrating to مدينة it is صورة of 110 آيات and it's in the middle of the Quran سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم also says من حفظ عشرة آيات من اول صورة الكهف عصمة من الدجال and some narrations say من حفظ العشرة الأواخر من صورة الكهف عصمة من الدجال which means that whoever memorizes the first 10 verses or the first 10 آيات or the last 10 آيات in other narrations of صورة الكهف then he will be protected from الدجال when at the end of times he will be sent and he will try to make people go astray and only the believers will read the three letters كافة and ر which form the word كافة which means is not a believer so these three letters will be on will be written on his forehead but only the believers will know will be able to read it سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم أردنا أن نتذكر أول 10 آيات أو أول 10 آيات من الصورة و سبحان الله they are easy to memorize so نستطيع نتذكرهم إن شاء الله و سيكون أساس أساس جداً بعد أن نعرف أساس جداً أساس جداً إذا كنت أردنا أجحب الآن لماذا صورة استهتبت نعرف أن قرائش إستعمل لنا سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم كلما تخبرهم عن إسلام و أنه كنت أخبرهم عن القراءة فلن يؤكد أنهم لن يؤكد لذلك لقد ولا يשלت من هذه اللعنة ولكنهم وضعتهموا أفضل لهم أي شيء ما يريده أي شيء ما يريده ولكنهم وضعتهم لذا they wanted to know exactly if he is a true messenger or not through a prophet or not قراء isn sent two of their people they sent these two people to Medina to the scholars to the Jews scholars so they wanted to to ask so let's now add! its a hadith. I will read the hadith and translate it for you بعزت قريش أن نضربنا الحارث وعقبت ابن أبي معيط إلى أحبار يهود أي إلى علماء يهود بالمدينة فقريش تعتقد أن هذه الناس، هؤلاء هؤلاء هؤلاء المدينة، هؤلاء المدينة فقالوا لهم، they said to them، سلوهم عن محمد وصفوا لهم، لهم صفتة، وخبرواهم بقوله وخبرواهم بقوله وخبرواهم ما يقرأه، ما يقرأه فإنهم أهلوا الكتاب الأول فأهل هذه المدينة، هؤلاء المدينة، هؤلاء المدينة، هؤلاء المدينة وعندهم ما ليس عندنا من علمي الانبياء وهم تعرف عن المدينة، ما لا نعرف فخرجا حتى قديما المدينة فأهلاء أخرى وعقبا، حتى قدما مدينة فسألوا أحبار يهود عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فأهلاء المدينة عن محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم ووصفوا لهم أمره وخبرواهم، وبعض قوله وخبرواهم ما يقرأه قالوا إنكم أهل التورات فأهلاء وعقبا، وخبرواهم وخبرواهم إنكم أهل التورات فأهلاء المدينة وقد جئناكم لتخبرونا عن صاحبنا هذا ونحن نأخذنا حتى تخبرنا عن من هذا المدينة نحن نتحدث عن محمد قال فقالت لهم فأهلاء المدينة سلوه عن ثلاثن ومروكم بهن أسكه عن ثلاثة أمر سنخبرك فإن أخبركم بهن فهو نبي إذا أخبرتك ثلاثة أمر سنخبرك فأهلاء المدينة وإلا ميافع فالرجل متقول لكن إذا لم أخبرك فأهلاء المدينة فارو فيه فرأيكم فأهلاء المدينة وإذا مدينة فأهلاء المدينة فأهلاء المدينة فأهلاء المدينة أسكه عن المدينة وماذا فكرة فأهلاء المدينة ومبيب ومدينة فإن المدينة أسكه عن المدينة فأهلاء مما أشكه عن المدينة فأهلاء مدينة فإنهم وسلوه عن رجول طوافين بلغ مشارق الأرض ومغاربها ويسأله عن شخص يسأله عن العالم ويسألهم عن ذوقرنين ما كان أنا بأو؟ يسألهم عنه عن أصبحته ويسألوه عن يرو ويسألهم عن الروح ويسألهم عن العالم ويسألهم عن الروح فهو إن أخبركم بذلك فهو نبي فاتبيعو لذا إذا كنت أسألتك سؤالك then he is a prophet and you follow him إذا لم يخبركم فإنه رجل متقول but if he didn't answer you then he is a liar فصنعوا في أمره ما بدالكم so do whatever you want with him this is what we, what questions you have to ask him so النظر أن عقبة came back to قريش فقالايا معشرة قريش قد جئناكم بفصل ما بينكم و بين محمد and they told قريش okay we came to you with what will be the turning point what would be the point that will tell you who Muhammad is قد أخبرنا أحبار يهود أن نسأله عن أمور these scholars the Jews scholars asked us to ask him about certain things فأخبرواهم بها so they told them about these things فجاءوا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم so they came to sayidna Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم فقالوا he said to sayidna Muhammad يا محمد أخبرنا we are here to ask you some questions and we want answers فسألوه عم أمروهم بهم so they asked sayidna Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم about what they were asked فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وخبركم غدا ولم يستثني فنصرفوا عنه so he told them I will tell you tomorrow ولم يستثني means he did not say إن شاء الله and so they left وما كثر رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم خمسة عشرة ليلة خمسة عشرة ليلة لا يحدث الله إليه في ذلك so sayidna Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم صلى الله عليه وسلم stayed 15 days 15 nights and he is not being said a word from Allah سبحانه وتعالى ولا يأتيه جبريل and جبريل did not come to him he was not sent to him حتى أرجف أهل مكة and the people of Makkah started to talk now وقالوا وعدنا محمد غدا واليوم خمسة عشرة قد أصبحنا فيها لا يخبرنا بشيء لا يخبرنا بشيء إن سألناه عنه so they said Muhammad promised us to give us the answers the next day and now it's 15 nights and we haven't been told he didn't tell us anything وحتى أحزن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم مكة الوحي عنه and sayidna Muhammad felt sorry that he was so sad that the jibreel عليه السلام is not coming to him 15 nights وشق عليهم ما يتكلموا به أهل مكة and what people of Makkah are talking hurt him ثم جبريل عليه السلام كيم ثم جاءه جبريل عليه السلام من عند الله عز وجل بصورة أصحاب الكف ثم جبريل عليه السلام كيم and told Jabb collabor and explained to people the situation of the Kaaf فيها معاتبته إياه على حزنه عليه لأنه تأخر عليه because he was late for them telling them وخبري ما سألوه عن من أمر الفتيتي والرجولي الطواف And the Surah of course told him about the story of the Ashab Al-Kaf, the people of the cave and the Zulkarnay And also it came down with the ayah 85 of Surah Al-Isra بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويسألونك عن الروح قولي الروح من أمر ربي وما أوتيتم من العلم إلا قليلا And they ask you oh Muhammad about the soul And they say the soul is of their care of my Lord And mankind have not been given of knowledge except a little And so Allah سبحانه وتعالى рекلمت سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم Because he didn't say insha'Allah when he said I will tell you tomorrow And this is why Allah سبحانه وتعالى revealed in Surah Al-Kaf ولا تقول لن لشي إن إني فاعل ذلك غدا إلا أي شاء الله وذكر ربك إذا نسيت وقل عسى أيه دياني ربي لأقرب من هذا رشدة لن تقول أيضا أني سأفعل ذلك أبدا إلا إلا أن يجب أن تضع إذا إذا كان الله وذكرك ربك عندما تنسى عندما تنسى أن تقول وذكر ربك will guide me to what is nearer than this to the right contact هذا sure is the reason why gives now if we want to talk about the topics in the we can divide يمكنك حلق السورة إلى بشكل مشكلة من شخص أية أية إلى أية أية It's about thanking Allah giving glad tidings and warming people آية أية 9 إلى 27 It's the story of the people of the cave آية 28 إلى 31 سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم، يجب أن يساعد الناس لإمكانهم أن تساعد الناس أكثر من 32 إلى 44. أكثر من the story of the two gardens أكثر من the people of the two gardens من 45 إلى 46 أكثر من the secret of what is really staying what is really accompanying a person to the life after and from 47 to 49 signs of the day of judgment just some points of some pictures of the day of judgment 50 to 59 it's the way Allah سبحانه وتعالى certain ways of giving destroying the non-believers and the transgressive from 60 to 82 the story of Sayyidina Musa عليه السلام with Al-Khadr عليه السلام 83 to 99 the story of the Qarnayn 100 to 110 the glad tidying the warning and the affirming of the Wahi Sayyidina Jibril عليه السلام بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم with the first ayah الحمد لله الذي أنزل على عبده الكتابة ولم يجعل له عيواجة so all praise is due to Allah who has sent down upon his servant the book and has not made therein any deviance if we go back to the last ayah of the previous surah سورة الإسراء الله سبحانه وتعالى ended the surah with وقول الحمد لله until the end of the ayah and say praise to Allah so قول الحمد لله وقول الحمد لله الله has started the next surah so the previous surah now سورة الإسراء ended with وقول الحمد لله صورة الكهف started with الحمد لله الله also started with الحمد praise to Allah so الحمد لله is the way that Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said when he talked about the best of the words he said سبحان الله و الحمد لله سبحان الله is just to to say that الله سبحانه وتعالى is the one no one like him he didn't have a child there is no one to help him nothing no one likes him nothing so this is سبحان الله الحمد لله we say الحمد لله الله سبحانه وتعالى for all his blessings for whatever he gave us in fact in the Quran there are five surahs that start with الحمد لله the first one is سورة الفاتحة الحمد لله رب العالمين all praises due to Allah the Lord of all that exists the third one is سورة الأنعام الله سبحانه وتعالى starts with الحمد لله الذي خلق السماوات والأرض وجعل الظلمات والنور all praise is due to Allah who created the heavens and the earth and made the darkness and the light the third surah is سورة الكاف when الله سبحانه وتعالى starts with الحمد لله الذي أنزل على عبته الكتابة all praise is due to Allah who has sent down up on his servant the book without any deviance in it the fourth surah is سورة سبق الحمد لله الذي له ما في السماوات وما في الأرض وله الحمد في الآخرة all praise is due to Allah to whom belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth and to him belongs all the praise in the hereafter and the last surah that starts with الحمد لله is سورة فاطر الحمد لله فاطر السماوات والأرض يجعل الملائكة رسولا أولي أجنحة مثنى وثلاثة وروبع all praise is due to Allah creator of the heavens and the earth who made the angels messengers having wings two or three or four so five surahs الله سبحانه و تعالى started with الحمد لله however each one of these surahs each one of this phrase الحمد لله has a different meaning than the other or a different الله سبحانه و تعالى for something different than what is in the other surah so in surah في سورة الفاتح الله سبحانه و تعالى we say الحمد لله رب العالمين he created everything he is the lord of all that exists he is the one who gave them the blessings in surah الحمد لله الذي خلق السماوات والأرض الله خلق we thank Allah who created the heavens who created the earth and darkness and light so all these are signs of the signs of Allah سبحانه و تعالى the blessings of Allah سبحانه و تعالى because the skies and the earth has everything that people need for their life and the darkness and light are the blessings because as as the darkness has has something has a role the same thing the light has a role also both darkness and light are complete each other because light there is movement in light there is trying to get sustenance there is a lot of action going on in light and darkness has tranquility resting and no one can do anything if he is not trusted so a whole universe with darkness by itself will not benefit a whole universe with light by itself there should be both light and darkness so we have to thank Allah سبحانه و تعالى for creating both light and darkness and now we come to Surat Al-Kahf when Allah سبحانه و تعالى started with الحمد لله الذي انزل على عبده الكتاب الحمد لله الذي انزل على عبده الكتاب العيواجه so Allah سبحانه و تعالى sent down the book the Quran to his servant سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and look at the word على عبده على عبده so this is why we thank Allah سبحانه و تعالى for sending down the Quran الكتاب so what is the Quran the Quran is the book that has all the instructions that has all the rules that has a complete program for a successful life الحمد لله الحمد لله for sending this program for this sending these instructions and Allah said in Surat Al-Rahman العلم القرآن خلق الإنسان so so Allah سبحانه و تعالى set the way, set the rules and after that he created man so the one who invents a machine before he invents the machine he knows what function this machine will do what tasks, what duties he will know exactly when to do the maintenance to keep this machine running in good condition so Allah سبحانه و تعالى descended down this Quran which is the law that the humans have to follow in order to live happily الحمد لله الحمد لله الحمد لله that he gave us this program that he gave us this these instructions now what does the word الحمد لله mean the word الحمد لله in Arabic has it three meanings ثناء شكر مدح و سر قد so the meanings are so close together but there is a difference ثناء because when you think of Allah سبحانه و تعالى so there is شكر شكر if someone does something special for you something he made something good specially for you not for any other person then you thank him you yourself thank him the other creations will not think about it they might not know about it even so this is شكر شكر is to thank someone for doing something specially for you but الحمد is is thanking for a blessing that is for you and for others it's not specially for you this is the difference the difference between ثناء and شكر so المدح might be might be you might praise something you might talk good about something but that thing will not give you anything in return when you say oh this is a nice cup you are praising this cup you're talking good about this cup but the cup is you might use it for to drink water but it's not something specially for you it's not something that you are the only one who will benefit from now if we go back if we go back to the word الحمد لله الحمد لله will mean that this thing we are thanking الله سبحانه وتعالى for for for anything for everything that He has created so if someone does something for you you thank Him but if you think about it الله سبحانه وتعالى made that thing do this thing that He did for you that you thanked Him for so if you have a chain you thanked this man but Allah سبحانه وتعالى made Him do what He did for you then you are thanking الله سبحانه وتعالى so Allah started the Surah with الحمد لله this is a form that we all say the literate and the illiterate to say الحمد لله the poet the engineer the doctor the healthy the sick everyone says الحمد لله the young the old everyone and even though we say we say the same thing that Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم اللهم إنا لانحصي ثناء عليك أنت كما أثليت على نفسك يا الله no matter how hard we thank you we still cannot thank you we still cannot praise you the way you deserve to be praised so we have to keep thanking الله سبحانه وتعالى الله give us all the blessings that we have He created us He perfected us He proportioned us we take our health for granted if someone has a headache then he will know what it means to live without a headache when someone has an accident and something happens to him broke his hand الحمد لله it was only the hand it wasn't my back so even in bad situations we say الحمد لله الحمد لله in the good and الحمد لله in the bad الحمد لله for whatever good الحمد لله for whatever bad we are tested with we say الحمد لله that our test was not in our faith يا رب keep our faith keep us on the right path keep us following سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم we say الحمد لله He gave us children we have to thank سبحانه وتعالى for this blessing by raising our children the right way by preparing the right environment for our children by helping our children stay on the right path by choosing their good companions this is a manna that we have it's a blessing but we have to to know how to deal with it there are so many things nowadays so many arrows that are hits against our children whether in belief whether in Naqida whether in ideas everything around us is a test with these children we should be careful how to raise our children we should as parents keep asking Allah and keep praying for the safety of the heart of our our children يا الله we ask you to give us and to give our children sound hearts يا الله and we thank you that you are allowing us to make prayers يا الله الحمد لله الحمد لله الذي أنزل أنزل على خبته الكتاب so he sent down up on his servant the book and look at the word servant in سورة الإسراء الله سبحانه وتعالى says سبحان الذي أسرى بعبده إلى المسجد الحرامي إلى المسجد الأقصى so when Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم was a true servant to Allah سبحانه وتعالى Allah elevated him into the skies to meet him he was sincere in worshipping Allah سبحانه وتعالى he was so patient in the tests that Allah سبحانه وتعالى has this to came with to Allah he was so patient this to came with so Allah rewarded him that he took him up to the skies and when Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم was up in with Allah سبحانه وتعالى Allah gave him gifts for us the last three eyes of سورة البقرة and the prayers the five prayers and remember that prayers were 50 and when he went down he met Sayyidina Musa عليه السلام and he said what happened he said Allah gave me prayers 50 prayers for my Ummah he said no no no no your Ummah will not be able to do it just go back up to Allah سبحانه وتعالى and ask him to listen that number so he kept sending him back and forth back and forth until we have five prayers now five prayers imagine if they were 50 with everything around us during the day with all our work with all our jobs with all our responsibilities imagine the 50 prayers we have five prayers and are we performing the prayers or are we just praying what's the difference praying is just to do the prayer or to do the قيام ركوع سجود and that's it just the form of the prayer but our head is thinking of what to eat today where to go are the kids still sleeping did they come back this is praying but in the Quran وقيمون الصلاة performing the prayer this is the gift that الله سبحانه وتعالى gave to سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم in الإسراء والمعراج in the night journey so when we pray we have to be present in our prayer we have to have خشوع in our prayer we have to remember always that we are standing before الله سبحانه وتعالى we have to prepare ourselves to stand before الله سبحانه وتعالى renew your wudu even if you have wudu renew it it's light up the light say عود بالله before you start your prayer you will outcast a shaitan say بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم by the power of Allah I'm going to be with Allah so get yourself prepared to stand before Allah سبحانه وتعالى this is what you do before the prayer what about in the prayer and try to focus on the meaning of what you are of the verses you are reciting so this is what you have to do during the prayer recite new as soon as that you memorize this will keep you aware of your prayer this will keep you connected to Allah سبحانه وتعالى in your prayer so Allah gave this gift we are thanking Allah سبحانه وتعالى for this gift Allah gave the Qur'an we say الحمد لله الذي أنزل على عبده الكتاب for sending down the book ولم يجعل له عي وجه so there is no deviance in the Qur'an it leads to the straight path and we know that the straight line is the shortest line if we are going if we are walking a long distance walk then we take the straight line and left and right and left we want to be there shortest time possible الحمد لله الذي أنزل على عبده الكتاب ولم يجعل له عي وجه قيما لينزر بأساً شديداً من لدن so this Qur'an he has Allah made it straight to learn severe punishment and to give the good tidings to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have a good reward so this is the promise that Allah سبحانه وتعالى is going to reward the Qur'an and to give the good tidings is going to reward those who are going to do righteous things righteous deeds it's a glad tidings so the word قيما means straight or it means the one who has the rule that if someone follows these rules then he will be he will be a winner if someone did not follow the rules then he will be a loser so the Qur'an is a warner and something is the signs the ayahs would give glad tidings to those who follow and who do righteous deeds ما كثين فيه أبدا in which they will remain forever وينذر الذين قالوا التخز الله و لدى so it's a warning for those who would say that Allah has taken a son ما لهم بي من علم ولا لآبائهم كبرت كلمة تخرج من أفواه إيه يقولون إلا تذيبه so Allah سبحانه وتعالى they have no knowledge of it they don't know anything نار had their fathers when they were asked to become Muslims that they would say no this is a religion that is not the religion we were raised up to and that's not what our four fathers used to know كبرت كلمة تخرج من أفواههم so nothing they will say except إيه يقولون إلا كذبه except it's a lie فلعلك باخع نفسك على آثارهم إللم يؤمن بهذا الحديث أسفا so maybe maybe you will kill yourself through grief over them if they don't believe in this message so don't don't get yourself so grieved إنك لا تهدي من تشاء ولكن إنك لا تهدي من أحببت ولكن الله يهدي من يشاء you do not guide those who you love but Allah guides those whom he wills إن جعلنا على الأرضي زينة لها لنبلوهم أيهم أحسن وعملها إن جعلنا ذلك which is on the earth just a dormant so so that we may test them of which is best indeed who is who will do good deeds we are going to give them everything money wealth health knowledge everything but that will be a test so if you have everything just remember that nothing is staying forever just remember that you are not going to take anything with you it's only it's only your deeds that are going everything will go after the to the to the graveyard everything will go back people will go back the cars will go back the wealth will go back the money no one will ask anybody to just to get their money and to put it in the grave with them no one so this life is only a test and it is it is it is only what some people are imprisoned in this life so we ask Allah SWT to give us to give us life we are not against something we are not against wealth no it's good to be wealthy it's good not to be a poor person but we have to know that whatever whatever happens we want this wealth to be only in our pockets only in our pockets not in our heart and we can have that by by having by having by having the so Allah SWT is giving people this just to test them who is sincere to Allah SWT every blessing that Allah SWT is giving us is a test he gave us good health are we using it for helping us just to be closer to Allah SWT we have eyes we want to use our eyes just to read Quran to be good not to watch anything that is haram or unlawful we want to do everything we have hands we want everything all the blessings that Allah SWT has given us even us is just a test we have a chance now to get advantage of these things of these blessings so we have to know that nothing is staying with us except our righteous deeds وصل الله وعلى سيدنا محمد يه치� بها وصلم يا ربنا لك الحمد واجيفو عظيم سلطانك سبحان ربك رب العزة عنما يصيفون وسلام على المرسليين والحمد لله رب العالمين
