 وأقول في القرآن ما جاءت به آياته فهو الكاريم المنزاله وأقول قال الله جل جلاله والمصطف الهدي ولا أتأواله الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وشدوى الله إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وشدوى النسيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسان إلى يوم دين أما بعد وإن شرح في الكتاب أخلاق حملت القرآن رتن باي الإمام أبو بكر محمد بن الحسين الأدرير رحمه الله وقال الله وعز وجل الله الله تبارك وتعالى سنة يا أيها الناس أو الناس قد جاءكم يأتي لكم برحان من ربكم The word برحان من ربكم means ضياء Light has come to you And this light of course is to shine the path for the people The believers الله سبحانه وتعالى guides them through the Qur'an أسوى الله سلم هذا آية وكذلك أحينا إليك روح من أمرنا ماذكم تتدري ملكتاب ولا الإيمان ولكن جعلناه نورا نهدي بهم من نشاء منهده جنا So Allah refer to the Qur'an as نور برحان The Qur'an is light It guides the path for you It shows you where you're walking towards My beloved brothers and sisters The brain is like the eyes The eyes can't see if there's no light on it And the brain cannot vision And it cannot function if the revelation is not on And that's very important to understand that That example I gave The eyes can see, of course they can see But they need light If the place is not lit for you You won't be able to see And you won't be able to maneuver From one point to another point The same applies with our rational mind Your rational mind cannot move It cannot function If there's no revelation to guide it Okay If the revelation doesn't guide it الله تعالى says يا أيها الناس or people قادي جاءكم it has come to you برحان من ربكم A light has come to you from your Lord وأنزلنا إليكم and we have sent onto you نورا مبينة A clear light has come to you A clear light has come to you فأما الذين آمنوا As for those who believe Who do they believe? آمنوا بالله they believe in الله سبحانه وتعالى وعتصموا به And they hold onto الله سبحانه وتعالى وعتصموا به means holding onto الله The word احتصام It means صدق اللجوء إلي It is to be truthful in turning back to الله سبحانه وتعالى وتمام التوكل عليه And it is to have complete reliance on الله سبحانه وتعالى وتفويل ذو الأمر إلي And to surrender your affairs to الله سبحانه وتعالى وعتصام means to be truthful in turning back to الله It means to completely rely on الله سبحانه وتعالى It means to surrender all of your affairs to الله سبحانه وتعالى That is اعتصام The Quran When we look at the Quran We look at the 100 on the Quran And we contemplate on the Quran We come to realize that the Quran uses the word اعتصام in two ways Okay The first one is اعتصاموا بالله To hold onto الله سبحانه وتعالى And اعتصاموا بالله means To rely on الله سبحانه وتعالى To surrender your affairs to الله سبحانه وتعالى When you hear وعتصموا به يعني وعتصموا بالله Holding onto الله means To rely on him To surrender your affairs to him And the second type is وعتصاموا بحبل الله Holding onto what? The rope of الله سبحانه وتعالى And that's the one that Allah used In Surat Al-Ali Umran where he says وعتصموا بحبل الله جميعا ولا تفرقوا وذكروا نعمة الله عليكم إذ كنتم عاداءً فألا فبين قولوا بكم فعصبحتوا بنعمتي إخوانا وكنتم على شفى حفرة من النار فأنقذكم منها إلى آخر الآية So Allah mentions here وعتصموا وعتصموا بحبل الله Hold onto the rope of Allah The rope of Allah is what? The Qur'an and the Sunnah The rope of Allah is the Qur'an and the Sunnah And that type of holding Is the same one that the Prophet used in the Hadith Which is عليكم بسنة وسنة الخلفاء الراشدين المهديين عبو عليها بالنواهج The Hadith of Ibn Saariah Hold onto the Sunnah with humility Hold onto it So hold onto the Qur'an and the Sunnah Those are the two types of holding That is mentioned Those are the two types of I'tisam that are mentioned And there is no success And there is no salvation For any one of us Unless we come with those two types of I'tisam The first one is I'tisamu billah To hold onto Allah And that is by surrendering our affairs to Him To rely on Him سبحانه وتعالى Having good thoughts of Him سبحانه وتعالى Asking Him for help That's the first one The second one which is عتصام بحبل الله Holding onto the rope of Allah وعتصام بحبله It's holding onto the Qur'an and the Sunnah Successes for that وليذلك the Prophet ﷺ he said تركت فيكم I have left behind for you two things ما انتمسكتم بهما As long as you are holding onto these two things لن تضلوا you will never be misguided What is it كتاب الله وسلم Left behind the book of Allah and the Sunnah If you hold onto them You will never be lost The people only become lost when they leave the Qur'an And when they leave the Sunnah The author of the Rahmah of Allah He mentioned the ayah أن الله تبارحه وتعالى وانتهسين فسيودخيلهم في رحمة منه Anyone who comes with اتصام بالله الله will enter him into رحمة ماسي منهو from him وفضلين أن الله will bestow his virtue onto them ويهديه أن الله will guide them Where will he guide them to إلى الصراط إليه صراط المستقينة الله will guide them to what A straight path The ayah tells us فسيودخيلهم ربهم الله will enter them into what في رحمة ماسي وفضلين ذاتشوا ويهديهم الله will guide them سبحانه وتعالى They have how many things الرحمة from Allah سبحانه وتعالى فضل ذاتشوا from Allah هداية from Allah ويهديه أن الله تبارحه وتعالى ويهديهم ويهديهم إليه صراط المستقينة الله will guide them to the straight path Then the author of the ayah which is وقال الله عز و جل الله says وعتصموا بحبل الله جميعا ولا تفرقوا And this is the second type of al-A'tisam which we mentioned What does it mean حبل الله The author says وحبل الله تعالى هو القرآن The rope of Allah that we need to hold on to is the Qur'an is what is the Qur'an And the person who said that وحبل الله تعالى هو القرآن is the Prophet وذلك ألمام ترمي the narrator in his Sunan وشيخ الباني رحم الله authenticated it that the Prophet ﷺ said in the authority of Zaid Ibn Arqam that the Prophet ﷺ said كتاب الله حبل ممدود The rope of Allah is a rope that's dangling for us من السماء is dangling from the السماء إلى الأرضي to the earth So the Hadith here What does it say كتاب الله the book of Allah حبل is a rope ممدود is an extended rope من السماء from the sky إلى الأرضي to the earth So this Hadith shows us وعتصموا وعتصموا بحبل الله that the Qur'an is a habl because the Hadith told us that the Qur'an is what حبل ممدود من السماء إلى الأرض Okay وقال الله عز و جل the author of the authority الله نزل أحسن الحديث كتاب متشابها متانية تقشعر منه جلود الذين يخشون ربهم ثم تليل جلودهم وقلوبهم إلى ذكر الله ذلك أهود الله يهدي به من يشاء وما يضل لله فما له من هاد The author of the authority الله نزل أحسن الحديث كتاب الله سبحانه وتعالى is the one that said down الحديث الله سبحانه وتعالى He said down حديث حديث here is referring to the what the Qur'an itself the Qur'an itself speech The Qur'an is a speech from الله سبحانه وتعالى speech It is the best in terms of wording and it's the best in terms of meaning الله سبحانه وتعالى كتاب الله سنتق down as a book This book is متشابه it's متشابه The word at Tashaabuh that we find that the Qur'an has been described in The word at Tashaabuh has been used for the Qur'an What is it? There are two types of Tashaabuh in the Qur'an or the word متشابه One of those types we've already spoken about is the one in the beginning of Surah Al-Imran هو الذي أنزل عليك الكتاب منه آياته محكماته أن أم الكتاب وأخر متشابه That type of متشابه We've already spoken about it And that type of متشابه was what? It was that the Qur'an There are some verses which are ambiguous and unclear and vague So That's the Tashaabuh That's a type that we've already spoken about There's a second type of Tashaabuh that's been used And it's the one that's used in this verse الله نزل أحسن الحديث كتابا متشابه This متشابه Don't think to yourself It's the same as the one that was used in the beginning of Surah Al-Imran هو الذي أنزل عليك الكتاب منه آياته محكماته أم أم الكتاب وأخر متشابه It's not that one It's another one So what is this one? This one is That the Qur'an Does not contradict itself This متشابه and here means That the Qur'an is a book that does not contradict itself It's like the ayah where Allah says أفلا يتدبرون القرآن و لو كان من عند غير الله لو وجدوا فيه اختلافا كثيرة That if this Qur'an was to come from other than Allah You would have found a lot of contradictions in it You see This كتابا متشابه Is in support with that verse يعني the Qur'an Does not contradict itself Rather it complements itself You hear a story of إبراهيم here You hear the same story here And it's not contradicting itself The story of the Prophet Moses mentioned here And it's also mentioned here It's not contradicting itself You hear the story of the Prophet Adam and the Iblis in one story And here in another story It's not contradicting itself It's complimenting itself It's giving you maybe additional information here That it hasn't given you here But it's not contradicting itself So the Qur'an is متشابه So when you read it The verses look alike But they're not contradicting That's what Allah is saying الله نزل أحسن الحديث The Qur'an is the best of speech كتاباً أي بك متشابهاً That does not contradict itself مثانية The Qur'an is a what? مثانية What does مثانية mean? مثانية means The Qur'an It mentions stories Multiple times You see The Qur'an mentions stories multiple times For example, you hear stories being repeated a couple of times Of the same incident You even sometimes see That the commands are repeated وقيم الصلاح It's been mentioned multiple places in the Qur'an You hear that prohibitions have been repeated in multiple places The descriptions of Allah سبحانه وتعالى والله غفور الرحيم It's been mentioned in multiple places in the Qur'an So that's what the word مثانية مثانية means يعني تثنى فيه It comes many times تخشعدوا منه جلود الذين يخشعون ربهم The Qur'an There are in it warnings تخشعدوا منه جلود الذين يخشعون ربهم Means That the people of Eman Their hearts and minds And their body trembles يعني There are verses Which are وعيد Warnings And those warnings They get affected by it The believers It scares them ثم تلين جلودهم وقلوبهم إلى ذكر الله And this is referring to That there are verses which their hearts and their minds find in them Hope Which then pushes them to remember subhan Allah The Qur'an has fear and it has hope in it نبع عبادية أني أن الغفور الرحيم وأن عذابي هو العذاب العليم سنذكرها وما نبع عبادية أني أن الغفور الرحيم وأن عذابي هو العذاب العليم نحن أترك أسلاح أني تكون على مرحبا ولكني تناول أنت وغافري ذب وقابرة شديدة غافري ذب He forgives His sins and shortcomings of the people And he's also what شديد العقاب prize with power الله تعالى تعالى السفيه في أجهزة تنتهي يعني The Qur'an is like that تجدن حفاظ And you find hope And the believers are like that ويجب أن يكون كذلك إنهم كانوا يسارعون في الخيرات ويدعوننا رهابا ورهابا وكانوا لنا خاشر فيا ورحب فهذا هو القرآن ذالك هو الله هذا هو المساعدة of your Lord يهدي به من يشاء الله يساعدة معه من يشاءه وهذا هو سبحانه وتعالى ومن يضلي لله وإنهو أبع الله تبارك وتعالى مساعدة فما له منهان لا يوجد شخصا to guide him أصبحت أخيه وخارجه هو سبب الله الله يتفقه الله يتفقه من يريد أن يقوم بقاعدة إذا كنت مقاعدة فهي محبوب فهي الله تبارك وتعالى يدفعه على خلاله وإنهو مقاعدة هو مقاعدة وإذا الله مقاعدة أيضاً هو صحيحه وإذا يقاعد جميعاً هو سبحانه وتعالى وقال الله عز وجل الله تبارك وتعالى كتابٌ أنزلله إليك هذا الشفق هو مبارك مبارك ياميز واتعظيمُ البارقة هذه الشفق سيطرح it's filled with There's a lot of خير There's a lot of whoiki benefits that are in this book in this book is the success and the prosperity of the creation is in this book for their worldly affairs and their hero after affairs all of it لذلك لذلك هو كتاب المبارك إنه كتاب المبارك كتاب أنزله إليك مبارك ليدبروا آياته لذلك أنت تفضل على هؤلاء هذه الآيات are two types there are آيات كونية the universal signs and there are also آيات which are شرعية آيات شرعية are the Qur'an and the sunnah pondering over it the آيات شرعية is the Qur'an and the sunnah pondering over it and thinking over it and extracting ruling from it both of those are praised the ones who ponder over the universal signs إن في خلق سماوات والأرض واختلاف الليل والنهار لآيات الأولي الألباب الذين يذكرون الله قياما وقعودا وعلى جنوبهم ويتفكرون في خلق السماوات والأرض ربنا ما خلقتها ده ده باطل سبحانك وفقنا عذاب النهار and they look at the universal signs and they ponder over it and they contemplate they look at the sky and they say who's holding the sky up there's no pillars holding it بغيلي عام الدين there's no pillars holding the sky who's holding this الله عجيب every building needs a summit to hold it but the sky no one's holding it we can't see anyone holding it الله is holding it so they ponder over this they look at the ocean and the sea and the way it looks how big they are from the creation of Allah and how small we are and then he asks himself does Allah really need us and he doesn't because all of these mountains and he has these creations beautiful creations سبحان الله recently I was reading how when the coronavirus or the COVID-19 took place how the world now regenerated itself and how it regained its greenery what's it called the the ozone layer and how it cured itself and it rehealed itself and سبحان الله so many things and how all of this the universe is becoming beautiful the believer ponder over these things that he sees سبحان الله everything Allah has created it indicates him points towards him everything everything everything there is a sign تدل على أن الله is one show me that Allah is one سبحانه وتعالى so the believer they ponder on the universal signs and they ponder also on the sharra things as well كتابن أنزل له إليك a book we have said down مبارا كن فيل with باركة ليتدبروا آياتي so you can ponder on this Quran you can ponder in critique of it وليتذكرة and the people of intellect والول الباب the word الباب means أهل العقول الراجح people who are smart clever they are the ones who are going to take lessons from this they are the ones who are going to benefit from it they ponder over the Quran and they benefit from it also the author رحمه الله he brought the ayah و الله تبارك وتعالى said و كذلك and like that أنزل له we sent down قرآن we sent down the Quran the Arabic language the Quran is the book of every Muslim أليس كذلك is that not the case isn't the Quran not the book of every Muslim yes it is what language is the Quran the Quran is in the Arabic language then the Arabic language becomes the language of every Muslim it's important you understand that the Arabic language is the language of every Muslim your country's language is the second language for you so if you're a Somali the Somali language is the second language your first language is the Arabic language you're a Muslim right صح if you're a a Hindu who came into Islam your language your local dialect or the language of your country is the second language the Arabic language now becomes your first language you're a Swedish who came into Islam the Swedish language becomes your second language your first language becomes the Arabic language يعني the minute you become a Muslim you now have a new religion you have a new language and you have a new book you have a new prophet everything is like that that's why Allah said وكذلك and like that and then now we send down the Quran عربياً in the Arabic language وصرفنا فيه من الوعيدي and in this Quran وصرفنا وصرفنا he means Allah he said we changed the methods in how we tell the warnings القرآن has warnings in it if you do this this is going to happen to you if you do this this is going to happen to you but it doesn't always do it in that method sometimes it says it in this way sometimes it says it in that way sometimes it says it in this way وصرفنا فيه in it we tossed and we turned the methods that we used to convey these warnings and this teaches us as well which is the way that you want to approach a matter sometimes you have to ponder on the way you say it and the way you address it why did we do all of that الله تعالى تعالى tells us وصرفنا فيه من الوعيدي why did we do that لعلهم يتقون so they can attain تقوى from this so they can take تقوى from this أو يحدثوا لهم دكرا أو يتغيب their situation ويتذكرهم الله سبحانه وتعالى ويجعلهم تقوى بسرعة على هذه الموضوع هذا is why we changed the approaches the approach in which we mentioned those warnings الله سبحانه وتعالى سأتوقف إن شاء الله ويكون شيء which I have said was wrong or incorrect is from me and Shaykh An and Allah his messenger are free from it سبحانك الله والله إلهي لله أستغفر وكاتبني
