 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دادا دالا وياله من شراف عظيم الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل واشدوا لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل واشدوا أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد إن شاء الله تعالى سأتحدث عن حكم الاحتفال بالمولد النبوي ما هو السيارة في مباشرة العالمية ما هو السيارة بالنسبة لها في الشريعة ونسبة لذلك why a topic like this we speak about is because we love the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم it is because we love him so much عليه الصلاة والسلام that we want to know if this action is something that will get us closer to Jannah or is it something that will distance us from the Hellfire it is out of love of the messenger عليه الصلاة والسلام we speak about this issue but before I speak about the topic and I delve into it there is something I have to mention which the Ulama refer to as تحرير محل النزع تحرير محل النزع and that means what is the point of discussion are we speaking about whether the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم he should be loved or not is that what we are speaking about are we speaking about whether salutation should be sent on the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم are we speaking about that no what we are talking about on what we are talking about is ربيع الأول the 12th of ربيع الأول can somebody celebrate this day this is what we are talking about and when they tell the people that these individuals they don't like the Salah and the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم it is called in Arabic it is turning away from the point of discussion when they say these people do not love the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم this is again it is turning away from the point of discussion what we are speaking about is are we allowed to celebrate the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم's birthday and loving the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم is أصل من أصول الدين it's a fundamental matter of our religion we love him more than ourselves we love him عليه وسلم more than our own children and our parents but the question is are we allowed to celebrate his birthday عليه وسلم is it something that the Sharia legislated or is it not so this is very important that it's understood I'm going to start my topic with by speaking about تاريخ الهتفال بالمولد وأول حدوثي the history of how the Moli did never we started and who were the first people who came with it one thing I want you to all remember those who say the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم their birthday can be celebrated some scholars have said that and those who said it is not allowed both parties agree that this was something that was not done by the three noble generations the ones who celebrate the محتفلين and the مكرين those who were celebrating the Prophet's birthday from the علماء and those who don't celebrate the Prophet's birthday the issue they all agree upon is this is not an action that the three noble generation came with I'll read you some of their statements الإمام الحافظ السخاوية رحمه الله who is the student of Ibn Hajar and he's from those who believed you can celebrate the Prophet's birthday look what he said he said عمل المولد الشريف لم ينقل عن أهد من السلف the celebrating of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم his birthday لم ينقل عن أهد من السلف الصالح it is not being transmitted from any of the noble believers of the three noble generation في القرون الثلاثة الفاضلة وإنما حدث بعد rather this occurred after the three noble generation سخاوية ذا he's from those who believe you can celebrate the Prophet's birthday so the scholars they say والشاهد الشاهد من أهلها they have a person from within them testified to this I have many other statements and I'll bring them later إن شاء الله تعالى so if they admit and they say okay that the Prophet didn't do this and Abu Bakr didn't do this and Omar didn't do this and Uthman and Ali and the companions didn't do it nor did the students of the companions do it nor did the students of the companions do it nor did the أقمة الأربعة الإمام أبو حريفة الإمام مالك الإمام مشافعي الإمام أحمد didn't do it none of the students did it أبو حريفة students أبو يوسفر محمد بل حسن الشيباني they didn't do it الإمام مالك رحمه الله he's student عبد الله بن وهبن and معنى بن عيسى they didn't do it الإمام مشافعي he's student ربي عبن السلامان المرادي and إسماعي بن يحي المزني they didn't do it إمام أحمد students none of them did it to who did it this is called a point of agreement it's agreed upon so when did it start and who started it the people who started it are the following الإمام المقريز رحمه الله he has a kitab called القطط first volume page 490 he says ذكروا لأيام التي كان الخلفاء الفاطميونة يتخذونها أعيادا ومواصمة تتسع بها أحوال الرعية وتكثروا نعمهم he chapted in his kitab this kitab is a history book one volume he mentions the days in which the خلفاء leaders the leaders the خلفاء الفاطميون they call themselves فاطميون attribute themselves to فاطمة منتع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم and the scholars of history like ibn katheel and others have proven that they were not from the lineage of فاطمة they were liars and they claimed to be from the lineage of فاطمة and insha'Allah we will speak about who they were so we call them the name that they really deserve which is they are عبيديون the خلفاء عبيديون are the ones who started it they made within the year he said عياد and celebrations ومواصمة تتسع بها أحواله تتسع بها أحوال الرعية وتقتل نعمهم within the year they had celebrations which they would virtue the people by giving them gifts and celebrating وكانا للخلفاء الفاطميين المقريزي says فاطميين they used to have through the year celebrations and from those celebrations he said في طول السنة عياد ومواصم وهي مواصم وموليدون نبي and the Prophet's celebration was one of them was the first thing that they celebrate الإمام أبو العباس أحمد يبنو علي القلق شندي he says in his Kitab صبح الأعشاء he says الجلوس الثالث the third sitting which they used to have the leaders خلفاء الفاطميون was what جلوسه في موليدون نبي they used to sit in the Prophet they used to do a gathering في الثانية عشرة and they used to do this on the 12th of the month of شهر ربيع الأول the Mufti of Diary المصرية سابقا he's not a Wahabi he's the Mufti of what he's the Mufti of Diary المصرية he was the Mufti of Egypt الشيخ محمد المطيع حنفي المدهر he says مما أحدثا وكثور السؤال عنه الموالد one of the things that have been introduced and the questions regarding it have become excessive I mean we've been asked about this in many places فنقولو our response is so there's something that has been introduced and the question regarding it has become so much and he says الموالد celebrating the Prophet's birthday فنقولو our response regarding this question is إن أول من أحدثها the first people who innovated who brought it بالقاهرة in Egypt are الخلفاء الفاطميون they are the Fátميون who brought it وأولهم the Fátميون they went through phases but who was from amongst them the first one who did it from their leaders المعزل ديني لا he's the one who started it his name is called المعزل ديني لا you can find this in the كتاب أحسنو الكلام page 44 شيخ علي محفوظ who's from the كبار العلماء again he's not a person who's Wahabi as they would say he said إن أول من أحدثها the first people who brought celebrating the Prophet's birthday in Egypt are الخلفاء الفاطميون في القرن الرابح they started this in the fourth century تدعوا ستة موالد within the year they made six celebrations المولد النبي the first one was the Prophet's birthday ومولد إمام علي بناب طالب ومولد السيدة فاطمة الزهراء ومولد الحسن والحسين ومولد الخليفة الحاضر يوسلبي علي فاطمة حسن حسين رضي الله عليهم جميعا and even the leader himself he's better be celebrated as well الشيخ علي محفوظ mentions that إن كتاب الإبداع في مضاري الابتداء page 251 he went on to say وقد استمر العمل بالمولد the maulid فاطميون he started it and he said it carried on إلى يومنا هذا to this day وتوسع الناس فيها and the people were excessive in it وابتدعوا بكل ما تهوى أنفسهم and they added on to the maulid everything that their mind and their desires pushed them to وَتُعِهِ إِلَيْ شَيَاطِينُ الْإِنْسِ والْجِنِ and they added into celebrating the Prophet's birthday whatever revelation Shaytan sends on them they will do it now they they rap and music is on وَلَانِ زَاعَ وَلَانِ زَاعَ وَالشيخ علي ماحفوثكره وَلَانِ ذَاعتِ ألم هناك ع Lana there is no debate فإنها من البداعي it's from an innovation كانells were also suppose to have said that African President سارع بين الحقل والباطل الشيخ... like petriger Scheikh never ending portion for all of them سوج's question here is now نحن نعرف الفاتميون الآن و نحن نبدأ بها. لكن من هم؟ هم الناس who are righteous, there are role models, people who should take this ruling from and this good deed or are they people who are evil and we should run away from them and they're doings. Let's look at what إلمام الحافظ بالكثير said about them in his book البداية والنهاية when he speaks about the event of 402 when he's talking about that year and the things that happened he says وكتب جماعة he says a group of scholars they wrote والقبات judges والأشراف والعدول والصالحين والفقهاء والمحديثين علما فقهاء محديثين أشراف عن ربوا individuals عدول reliable people they all wrote all of them they wrote والشهدوا جميعا all of them wrote الابيان they wrote it أن الفاطمين فدفاطمين ملوك مصر the leaders of Egypt آه كفار فالساق فجار ملحدونة زنادقة معطلونة وللإسلام جاحدونة ولمدهب المجوسية والثلوية معتقدونة قد قد أطل قد أطل الحدودة وأباح الفروج وأحل الخمر وسفق الدماء وسب الأنبياء ولاعن السلف تيثد كفار فالساق فجار ملاحدة هارتيكس زنادقة معطلونة للإسلام ساعدة ولمالذهب المجوسية والثلوية معتقدون آه I do worshipers الفاية قد أطل الحدود وأباح الفروج زنة حلال وأحل وأ ميت خمر وقالوا في دماء يسطلوا في إجب when they came وسببوا الانبياء they insulted the prophets ولاعنوا السلف they insulted the pious predecessors ودعاور ربوبية and they claimed that they are a god القادل باقلاني the great ash'ari leader سكولا ابنكهثير transmits from him كتاب البداية ونهاية the eleventh volume page 369 he said about the Fatimid what did he say about them وقوموا يظهرون الرفضة ويبطنون الكفر المحضة والله سبحانه وتعالى أعلم he says they are people who show the people that they are rafidah that's what they show ويبطنون الكفر but what they have in their hearts is disbelief كلاكا disbelief ابنكهثير goes on now he spoke about the Fatimid who they were let's talk about this individual who started المعزل الديني الله from the Fatimid as you know the Fatimid خلافة was in Morocco it got moved from Morocco and it got taken into Egypt قاهرة and the people who brought it into قاهرة the man who brought it into قاهرة was المعزل الديني الله he's the one who brought it when he came to Egypt he landed first in الاسكندرية and when he landed the people came to visit them they came with their armies and their strength so he done a khutba for them and he said to them that he's going to be justice for the oppressed the ones who have been oppressed and have been wronged he's going to come and bring them their rights and then what he said to them was وأن الله قد رحما أمة بي الله has brought ماسي to the people through me وهو معدالك ابنكهثير says even though he is saying that متلبس بالرفض ظاهرة وباطنة he has a rafid belief externally and internally and then he goes وكدالك أهلو دولتي and the people of his government وقل رافضة and anyone who obeyed him and anyone who has given victory to him ورافضة and anyone who loved him they loved and anyone who went against them they killed and ابنكهثير mentions the story of a man he said وقض أحضراء وان دا المعزل الديني الله he brought a man close ابنكهثير says about this man he was a زاهد عابد ورع ناسك he was a تقي أبو بكر النابوليسي his name was his name was أبو بكر النابوليسي he was a worshipper aesthetic person God fearing individual so المعزل الديني الله he said to him بلا غاني عنك it reached me regarding you أنك قلت that you claim that if I was to have 10 arrows I would direct 9 arrows towards the Romans and the 10th arrow I would direct it at what the Fatimidin I heard you said something like that that you would throw an arrow at us he's responded by saying ما قلت هذا I didn't say that فظننا أنه رجع عن قوليس so he thought he came back from his speech and his opinion and that he's not upon that anymore he said but what did you say أبو بكر النابوليسي he said what I said was if I was to have 10 arrows I would direct 9 at you guys and the 10th one I would direct it at the Romans and then المعزل الديني الله he said to him ولمة why he said لأنك غيرت الدين الأمة you've changed the people's religion وقتلتوا مصالحين and you have killed the righteous individuals واطفعتوا اللورة الإلهية you've extinguished the light of Allah ودعيتم and you have claimed ما ليس لكم ذلك which you don't have no right for because you've claimed what isn't your name ربوبية you've claimed he said is that the case? okay he said to his God grab him so they grabbed أبو بكر النابوليسي when they grabbed him he said the first day take him parade him in the market strip him naked and parade him in the market then he said the second day whip him بسياطه with a lash ضرباً شديداً مبرحاً make sure that they beat him that he goes through that he penetrates through his skin the third day he said peel his skin off his body so he couldn't find anyone to do it فجي أبي هوديل he bought a Jew man and he said to him do it and the Jew man said he was reading the Quran وهو يقرأوا القرآن I'm taking the skin off him and he's reading the Quran he said فأخذتني the Jew man said I felt soft in my heart and what I did was I can see a man whose skin I'm peeling off so he said when I reached his heart and I was peeling his skin off and I reached his heart and I can see the man suffering to give him a quick death I stabbed him in the heart so he dies so this is who he was I ask him now a question Do we leave الخلفاء الراشدون أبو بكر عمر عثمان هل نتركه and do we take the path of the خلفاء العريدون those individuals this is a question a mu'min who wants to enter جنة who wants to be distance from the hellfire this is a question he asks himself this action that you're doing who did you take it from did you take it from الخلفاء الراشدون or did you take it from الخلفاء العريدون the Moli died after المعزل and then he got revived again by one of the عريدون leaders his name was الحاكم بأمر الله he revived again and he brought back to Egypt again who is he now الحاكم بأمر الله الحاكم بأمر الله الامام الدهب he says in the seer in the seer علام النبلاء he says الحاكم بأمر الله العريدون النسري الرافضي بل الإسماعلي زمديك المدعي الرموبي لا هدي سيز he says his حاكم بأمر الله his عبيدي his an egyptian his رافضي راضي he said he's not just a rafid he's إسماعلي زمديك he's a heretic المدعي he claimed the rubbia he claimed that he's a rab الله his name he said and then he said وكان الشيطان مريدا جبارا عريدة كثيرة تلول سفاكا للدماء خبيثا النهلة عظيم المقل جوادا له شأن عجيب ونبأ غريب كان في العون زمانه يختلع كل وقت احكاما يلزم الرعية بها امر بسبب الصحابة

المشاكين بسبب الصحابة يقول that صحابة will be insulted بكتابة الغالب علي المساجد يقول that should be written on the insult of the companions it should be written on the walls of the masajids it's right on the wall and also on the road it's right on the walls the insulting of the companions أمر أ. الم.اله وقممم بسبب الصحابة ووضعته المشاكين وقم بقتل الإلكلاب يلتون أن المألاء يجب أن يكون مساء في إجبت حاله ما يفعله؟ أهس فيه شعير أعلم ما شعير是 في إغليش الشعير كان الحديث حتى يجب أن يكون مجرد من ذلك لقد بإمكانهم منه ملوخية، لا أعلم ما هو في إغليش هذه هي مرحلة�ة الجميع لقد بإمكانهم إجبته لقد وقت

هذه الثلاثة في حياته بدأت للحب العزلة لتساعد الناس أن يكونوا بي by himself يكونوا بي by himself ونذهب ونذهب ونذهب ونذهب ونذهب ونذهب إلى الماركت because look when, he killed everybody around him so he became alone, a stranger He would take his riding beast and he would come to the market when he come alone, he would come with a big black slave and this is something, it's hard for my tongue to say but they have been mentioned in this year so I'm just going to transmit to you what has been documented in the history حسنًا ، يجب أن يجب أن يتكلم هذا في السير العالمي لبناء يقول أنه يجب أن يأخذ هذا السليد ، هذا السليد الأخي و يأخذ إلى المدينة و يجب أن يبحث أن الناس are selling what he told them to sell و يجب أن يفعل it و بين يديه عبدٌ بخمٌ فاجرٌ و مع him is a big black slave و يجب أن يكون خطئاً فمن واجب عليه تأديب anyone who deserves to be disciplined و يخبرون أنه يتكلم أنه محفوض و أنه يخبرون أنه ليس هو أنه أمر العبد أن يتكلم بخمٌ فلسطة و يجب أن تحطيه في السليد و المثعولة و المخفض التي تحطيها إلى تكلم و يجب أن يتكلم هذا والله يجب أن يتكلم على السلالة من البلاء و يتكلم أنه سيكون مخفضاً و أن شأداراً و أنه شخصك و يقوموا بإضافة قيوداً وقولوا يووداً وأغلالاً وقولوا شينس فيه وجعل الله سبعة أبواب وقولوا 7 دولs وقولوا جهنم أي شخص يصبحون بطريقة جيدة يدخلونه إلى هذا المكان ومن شخص يشعرون أنه يأخذونه في المكان وقولوا بطريقة جيدة يدخلونهم كما يخبرونهم أن يفعلون ذلك وذلك يدخلونهم يا واحد، يا أحد، يا محي، يا مميت هذا ما يفعلونه now you've come to realize that these are the people who made the Maulid and this is where it came from are you with me brothers these are the individuals your iman is am I going to leave a tariqa of the Prophet ﷺ and his companions and am I going to take a people who are calling them Shaytan, Al-Anid and Jabbar you choose but the people they responded the other party what they said was the Fatimid didn't start it they didn't and these scholars they call this they are trying to remove the what are they trying to remove the harsh criticism they can see the history in front of us and what these people are like so how do they run away from it they run away by saying no who is the leader of Ibn Irbil he's the first person who started it and Ibn Irbil is brothers it's a place in Iraq and it's not far from Mosul it's a place where the Kurdish live the response to this number one is that's not the case because ملك المضفر he himself in Ibn Irbil before him it was started as Imam Abu-Shamah المقدس he mentions in his كتاب الباعث على إنكار البداعي والحوالي and by the way Abu-Shamah is one of the scholars who celebrate the birthday of the Prophet he mentions that the king ملك المضفر he took it from a man by the name of عمر إبن محمد الملا and سبطه بالجوزي in his كتاب مرأاته زمان في تواريخ الأعيان 8 volume page 310 he says that ملك المضفر ملك المضفر he took it from the Fatimid because one time was the ملك المضفر he's a 7th century and when he's done Fatimid 4th century are you with me brothers we're saying it's at least close to the Prophet's time right we are bringing it closer by saying the Fatimid is 4th century you're pushing it even further by saying it's what 7th century if making it even further from the Prophet A.S حافظ المركاتين in the beginning and the end he mentions that ملك المضفر took it from who the Fatimid he mentions the كتاب the beginning and the end even if okay the Fatimid didn't do it and we take the ملك المضفر took it ولو سلمنا عليكم جدا لن we take it for argument sake isn't this a recognition on your side that this is an innovation that this started 7th centuries after the Prophet's death A.S does this make it more easier for you does it make it easier why are you running away from saying that the Fatimid started it it's because of their what biography right but let's look at ملك مضفر he's a good biography is he a noble person for them to take him as a role model as well يا قوت الحموين كتاب معجم البلدان first volume page 167 he says وطباعه هذا الأمير the nature of this man ملك مضفر is مختلفة المطبادة he's got split personality did they call it bipolar ya he's got it split personality فإنه كثيروا الظلمي he's very oppressive عصوفوا بالراعية رغبوا في أخذ الأموال من غير وشيها he takes the people's wealth unjustly وهو ما عدارك but even then he rubs the money he steals the money from the people but even then وهو ما عدارك متفضل على الفقراء some of the copies I took it from a sage على القراء he would give to the فقراء those who are in need and he would also give to the قراء he was the person who gave the money he rubbed from the people he would give it to the فقراء under the قراء كثيروا صدقات his sadaqa was a lot على القرباء on the strangers يسيروا الأموال الجملة الوافرة يستفقوا يستكف يستفقوا بها الأسار من أيدي الكفار he would take that money and he would go to the disbelievers and he would say he would take this money give us the captives and the Muslims that you have he would do that وفي ذلك and his example is the poet what he said يقولت الحموي say this the example of ملك المرافر is in this one line of poetry which is كساعية اللي الخير من كس بفرجها لكيل ويلو لا تصدق ولا تتصدق a woman who goes out and she does prostitution she takes money from the prostitution and then she gives sadaqa from it the poet said كساعية اللي الخير like the woman who is going towards good من كس بفرجها from that everything that she gets from a private part لكيل ويلو destruction be to you لا تصدق لا تصدق لا تصدق لا تصدق so the king the money that you rob from the people then to give it a sadaqa don't rob the people's money and don't give sadaqa so this is his personality it's not like he was a noble individual himself I'm going to now insha'Allah read you some of the Ulama I've read some I'm going to add more scholars who've admitted and they are the ones who celebrated I'm only going to mention those who celebrate the prophet's birthday admitting that this is a what newly introduced matter سيوتي he's from those who permitted celebrating in his كتاب حسن المقصد he says أول من أحد تفعل ذلك the first people who started the celebration of the prophet's birthday is صاحب وإربي الملك المضافر ملك المضافر is the one who started it we responded to that we'll take it for the sake of argument seven centuries after the prophet started محمد علوي الملك he's also from those who celebrate he said celebrating the prophet's birthday وإن لم يكن في أهدي even though it was not at the time of the prophet فهو بدعة it's an innovation ولكنه حسنة الإمام أبو شامة المقدسي he says ومن أحسن مبتدع في زماننا one of the good innovation that have been started at our time is is the celebrating of the prophet's birthday is the celebration that the people give and and the people bringing out their beauties and dressing up the question now is there are a group of scholars who say don't celebrate the prophet's birthday and we have a group of scholars saying celebrate it we're trying to be buyers right brothers fair yeah a few said it we'll just say some scholars say it and yeah some we'll make it easy what do we now need to do أن نجريه المحاكمة we have to judge between the two بين المحتفلين those who are celebrating the prophet's birthday and the munkireen صح we have to judge between the two of them صح I wanted to Allah say in the Quran when two parties of people differ what did he say he said فإن تنازعتم في شيء if you dispute one another in a matter what do we do فردوه إلى الله والرسول إن كنتم يولى بالله وليوم الاخر if you believe in Allah and the day of judgment where do we bring it back to the Quran we take it back to the sunnah الله says ومختلفتم فيه من شيء فحكمه فحكمه إلى الله you do not differ on a matter and you do not disagree one another in a matter except the ruling is with who is with Allah now let's look at what the Quran and the sunnah mention regarding this issue the religion stands on two pillars الدين مبنيون على أصريني the religion stands on two pillars are you with me brothers the first one is ألا يُعبد إلا الله that no one should be worshipped except who الله سبحانه وتعالى وحده لا شريك له and we should not associate partners with him very good what is the second thing ألا يُعبد الله إلا بما شرع ألا يُعبد الله that we do not worship إلا الله إلا بما إلا بما شرع we worship Allah based on what he legislated صحيح are we all together brothers Allah legislates it through the Prophet ﷺ so that's how it's legislated are you with me brothers those are the two pillars the religion stands on let's look at Mollid if it meets the criteria of the conditions of a righteous deed being accepted because those people who are screaming in the Mollid and crying and shaking the question is are they not trying to are they not trying to do a righteous action isn't that what they want from this so we're asking ourselves these are the two pillars in which a righteous deed stands on are you there brothers does Mollid fulfill these two conditions does it fulfill one condition huh which one does it fulfill which is sincerity right even that one is a question today وإن من جودك الدنيا وبرتها ومن علومك علم الله و القلم when they come and they read that in their in their برده the Mollid book huh from your knowledge Abu Siri what he says وإن من جودك الدنيا وبرتها from your knowledge Muhammad because they praise the Prophet right and when they praise him what do they do they go overboard they give Allah's rights to the Prophet ﷺ are they not they put the chair for the Prophet there so the first one itself is missing there is it not it is and then what's also missing in accordance to this in accordance to the Kitab and the Sunnah is this something Abu Bakr the Prophet ﷺ did they admitted this they said no we didn't do it لا أبو بكر did ولا عمر ولا أثنان and then now we know the party of scholars who said it is haram alright because there are two things that every action whether it should be accepted it stands on these two pillars this is basic there's one ayah that summarized these two pillars what is it فمن كان يرجوا لقاء ربي anyone who hopes to meet his Lord by entering paradise by being forgiven for his sins فمن كان يرجوا لقاء ربي فليعم العمل صالحا come with righteous deeds which is what following the Prophet ﷺ ولا يشرك بعبادة ربيه أحد and do not associate partners with Allah those are the two pillars is it not it's the last ayah that you read every Friday right very good ابن كثيرا حما الله he said فإن ل العمل المتقب لشرطين the action which is accepted has two conditions أحدهما the first one is أن يكون خالصا لله وحدا it's sincerely for Allah alone والآخر or the second is أن يكون صوابا موافقا لشريعة the second one is it is correct and it's in accordance to the shريعة فمتا كان خالصا if an action is done with sincerity ولم يكون صوابا and it is not done based on the Prophet ﷺ doing it لم يتقبل it will not be accepted how ever much you cry now we ask ourselves a question is this religion finished or is it not is Islam finished yeah is it complete is it complete did the Mawlid was it added into the religion before it got completed or after yeah it got added into the religion we don't want anything after the religion it's complete already when Allah said in the Quran اليوم أكملت لكم دينكم today I have finished and completed a religion for you اليوم أكملت لكم دينكم وأتممت عليكم نعمتي ورضيت لكم الإسلام الدينة that day when the ayah came down what was not a religion will not be a religion today when the Prophet was alive what was not a religion at that time will not turn out to be a religion after look at this wallahi this hadith by itself is enough to just prove the impermissibility of Mawlid what is it the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said that the Prophet said ما بقية شيءن nothing remains you know what the word ما بقية the word ما is what نفيه the negation ما بقية شيءن شيءنا إذا النكرة في سياق نفيه تفيد العموم ستقاعد according to the scholars if an indefinite word comes into the context of a negation it shows generalization nothing whatsoever remains wallahi not small or not large nothing remains يقرب من الجنة that will bring you close to jannah ويبعيد من النار and will distance you from the hellfire إلا وقد بينا لكم except it was clarified to you اللهم there is nothing that will take you close to jannah the Prophet is saying this to you there is nothing that will get you closer to jannah and will distance you from the hellfire except you are told except you are that hadith is enough to say to us if this act the celebration of the Prophet's birthday is an act that will get us closer to jannah then it has to have been told to us and if it's going to distance us from the hellfire then it has to be something that the Prophet told us are you with me brothers it's very important and Imam Malik said من يبتدع في الإسلام يبدع anyone who innovates in the religion an innovation يراها حسنة he sees it to be good ask these people to say ممالك is saying anyone who innovates a matter into the religion he sees that to be good he sees it to be good فقد زعمة this person has claimed أن محمدان that the Prophet خان الرسالة the Prophet has deceived this message because it was his job to convey and you're saying مولد is an act that will bring you closer to jannah isn't that what they're saying and you're saying the Prophet didn't do it no did he talk about it no did he tell anyone are you with me so there was a path to jannah there was a path to go to jannah and a path that would distance you from the hellfire and the Prophet didn't do his job he would hold that information he deceived the Ummah from it that's what you're saying you're not saying it بلسان المقال you're not uttering it your actions are are you with me brothers you're saying I know a path I know a path that if I take it will take me to jannah and it will distance me from the hellfire and the Prophet said didn't explain it then إمام مالك recited the ayah اليوم أكملت لكم دينكم and then he said قاعدة a principle every person of the sunnah should hold on to which he said فما لم يكن يوم إلن دينا what was in a religion that day فلا يقول اليوم دينا it would not be a religion today اللسر in an ayah فليحذر الذين يخالفون عن أمره be cautious of those who are opposing the Prophet what? opposing the Prophet what is this? the person who is celebrating something that the Prophet did not celebrate what's going to happen to him? is he opposing the Prophet or is he in accordance to the Prophet? فليحذر الذين يخالفون عن أمره and to see them فتنة or you see them عذابنارين فتنة is going to happen to them or a severe punishment the day of judgment وليدالك this ayah الإمام مالك رحمه الله a story is mentioned that a man came to him and he said إمام مالك رحمه الله يا بعض يا بعض يا بعض يا بعض يا بعض يا بعض يا بعض يا بعض يا عب عبد الله من أين أحرم؟ يا عب عبد الله إمام مالك where should I wear my إحرام from? إمام مالك في المدينة he set him go to ذي الحليفة where the meqat of the people of Medina من حيث أحرم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم this is the place where the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم did he's a haram from the man said إني أريد أن أحرم من المسجد I want to do a haram from the masjid and I want to go to the meqat I want to start earlier extra points و أفئن so I want to start from the masjid إمام مالك لا تفعل don't do that قال إذا إني أريد أن أحرم من المسجد من عند القبر I want to do my إحرام in the masjid next to the Prophet's grave إمام مالك لا تفعل don't do that فإني أخش عليك الفتنة I fear for you فتنة I fear fitna for you the man said و أي فتنة في هذا و أفتنة إذنها إنما هي أميان it's only a mileage miles أزيدها I'm just going to add extra miles on it not a big difference I'm still in Medina تلحولي فأنوار the Prophet's misfeed it's just a couple of miles و أفتنة دي you fear for me داني مام مالك قال و أي فتنة و أفتنة is greater I mean أنترأت for you to see أنك سبقت إلى فضيلة that you have hasten to a good قصة لعنها رسول الله the Prophet was just deficient in أني سمعت الله يقول that the Prophet was deficient in إني سمعت الله يقول and then Imam Malik said I heard Allah say فليحذر الذين يخالفون عن أمره أن تصيبهم فتنة أو يصيبهم عذاب و أليم rather brothers and sisters love that you have for the Prophet and love you have for Allah if you go wrong with what you're doing you get punished for it let alone get rewarded for it it's not enough to say I love Allah I love the Messenger are you with me because love is a righteous deed and the Shari'a I will tell you how you should come with that righteous deed venerating and glorifying the Prophet is a righteous deed the Shari'a is going to tell you how to glorify him and venerate him you don't make that up are you with me brothers these things you need to memorize look at the three men who loved the Prophet and they came and they visited his house and they asked the wives of the Prophet how is the Prophet's prayer like they love him and when they were told that he sleeps he eats he fasts he breaks his fast he sleeps and he eats and he marries women each one said the opposite I'm going to never sleep one said I'm going to be awake another one said I will fast and I will never break my fast another one said I will never get married to women these men are trying to do extra work did they get rewarded for it what did he say to them I get married I also sleep and I wake up I eat and I break my fast I fast and I break my fast and then the Prophet said anyone who shows passion towards other than my Sunnah is not from amongst me these men they did this out of love did they not wasn't it love what drove them wasn't it accepted from them I hate him it's not enough it is not well, some people today who are the Sahabas even when they were doing extra things and the Prophet sometimes would correct them and say don't do this don't do this they were doing at least the wajibat some of these people who are running around today saying let's celebrate the Prophet's birthday let's celebrate the Prophet's birthday some of them I know them لا يصلون they don't pray they don't pray they don't pray and he says you have you don't love the Prophet عجيب you don't pray ولا عصر ولا مغرب ولا عشا and the only time that you love the Prophet when he's born this is وحيو الشيطان this is what it's a وحيو الشيطان شيطان is a revelation of me I'm going to إن شاء الله تعالى conclude with the last point بإذن الله الكريم ألمام البخاري رحمه الله there's a thing I really want to show you ألمام البخاري كتاب الحج بخاري رحمه الله كتاب الحج he does a chapter and he chapter he called it بابو ملّم يستلب إلا رقلين لليامانيين I want you to ponder here this chapter he called it the chapter ملّم يستلب the person who does not touch except the two the two Yemeni corners one is the black stone and one is the the Yemeni corner okay they face towards Yemen are you with me so he chapter the chapter where he says not touching the Kaaba except the Yemeni corner and the black black stone so he said the Kaaba is four sides right the Prophet ﷺ there's two sides that face towards Yemen they're called يمانيين and there's two sides that face towards شام it's called شاميين together are we all together on that we all understand بخاري chapter it is صحيح and the علما they say فقل بخاري the Bukhari's فق is in his what he's تراجم these two sides the Prophet used to touch like بخاري straight away after he brings ما لم يستنب الى الرقنين الى اليمانيين straight after he brings سند عبد اللهب العمر عبد اللهب العمر سند لم أرى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يستنب من البيت الى الرقنين الى اليمانيين عبد اللهب العمر سند I never saw the Prophet touch except the two the two sides which is the Yemeni corner and the black stone I only saw him touch those two are you with me brothers يرحمك الله are we all together on that so عبد اللهب العباس he saw معاوية the faqih of this ummah عبد اللهب عمر عبد اللهب العباس also said about معاوية هو من أفقه صحابة رسول الله he's from the fuqaha of the companions عبد اللهب العباس he said this about معاوية but he saw معاوية from far what was he doing touching four sides of the Kaaba when he saw him بخاري brings it عن أبي الشعثة أنه قال وما يتقي شيء من البيت وكان معاوية معاوية would touch the four sides عبد اللهب العباس went to him and he said to him pay attention why do you touch the four now I want you guys to ask I'm asking before we move on the discussion the prophet did not say you can't touch the other two sides think here عبد اللهب العمر only said that I did not see the prophet touch the other two his proof here is the fact the prophet left it عبد اللهب العمر عبد اللهب العمر is that the prophet left this action of touching the other two sides there's no narration where the prophet says you only touched the two the many corner and the black stone he didn't say that they just saw him touch these two sides so what they took from that you can't touch the other two because he didn't touch it he left it the leaving of the prophet is their proof I will together so he came to عبد came to معاوية after seeing him touch the four sides and then he said to him why is it that I see you touch the four sides look at معاوية's response معاوية says ليس الشيء من البيت مهجورة the house the ka'ba there's not a place where we boycott take that answer today and ask those people why do you celebrate the prophet's birthday what did they say to you the prophet said the person we love we can't leave him same argument does it not resemble each other good look what Ibn Abbas said to معاوية straight away لقد كان لكم في رسول الله وصفة الحسنة in the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم before you is a great example what did معاوية say he didn't say you hate the ka'ba you have something in your heart towards the ka'ba did he say that no he said صداقتة you've told the truth and معاوية never used to touch the other two sides he left it pay attention are we all together let's look at what حافظ من حجر brings a fat'ubari are we all together brothers حافظ brings a powerful statement who does he transmit it from ألمام الشافعي شافعي says the statement of معاوية which is ليس الشيء من البيت مهجورا that there is nothing in the house of Allah that we boycott we leave and we abandon شافعي said بأننا لم ندأ استلامة استلامة we did not leave of touching the other two sides the other two sides which are the شاميين we haven't stopped from touching those two sides حجر اللي البيت because we're boycotting the house no وكيف يهجر how is it that we're boycotting it وهو يطوفوا به when we're doing طوافة around it ولكن but نتبع سنة فعلا وطركة and the reason why we left this is we are following the sunna of the prophet what he did we do and what he left we have not chosen to not celebrate the prophet's birthday because the response is ولكن نتبع السنة فعلا وطركة are you with me I conclude there شاء الله و تعالى anything which I have said that might have been wrong incorrect mistake era is from me a shaytan and Allah his messenger are free from it سبحانك اللهم بحمدك أشدوا الله إله إلا الله أستغفركه
