 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيمي ثوبن إبراهيم ألأخميني مي الله مرسل فيه أحد يقول There are three signs of sincerity The one sees praise and blame from people as equal That one sees not his good deeds Even as he performs them And that one looks forward to And considers the rewards of his deeds on the day of resurrection There are three things which he can say That these are the signs of sincerity علامة اخلاص That this person is sincere The first one is استواق المده with دمي من العامة That the people's criticism And that the people's praise is to you the same That's all Sign of sincerity And this is very hard to attain To be honest That the people's praise and their criticism Becomes the same for you The second he said is وَنِسْيَانُ رُؤْيَةِ الْأَعْمَانِ فِي الْأَعْمَانِ is that you really don't see your righteous deeds You forget them Somebody will meet you and say أخي do you remember me What is it I was the person you one time helped And you did this for And you're like Oh I don't remember And there are another group of people When they help people They make that person feel like Why after I meet this person صح الله says in the Quran وَلَا تُبُطِلُ صَطَى وَلَا تُبُطِلُ صَطَى وَلَا تُبُطِلُ صَدَقَاتِكُمْ بِالْمَنِّ وَالْأَدَى كَالَّذِ يُوفِقُمْ آلَهُ رِيَا الْلَسْ There's one يُبُطِلُ He destroys his صدقة بِالْمَنِّ وَالْأَدَى All day he'll tell you the favor he did for you You remember me You can't forget me Can't you brother Because I'm the one who did this for you He meets you another day He's like I guess who's calling you brother All day you feel like Why did I meet this person I wish I never knew who he was He will text you it He'll say save my number I'm right next to it The brother who helped you He wants every moment and chance he gets He wants to sip it through Throw in That he was the one who favored you And he calls you harm because of that بِالْمَنِّ وَالْأَذَى أَذَى it calls you Another person doesn't remember what they do for people Because the reason is because They are not really concerned with their righteous deed وَالْذَانِكُ وَدِدْ سَعْدِى سَيَتَقَرَّبُونَ إِلَا الْمَلِيْكِ بِطَاعَتِهِمْ يَتَقَرَّبُونَ إِلَا الْمَلِيْكِ They get close to the Lord أألو فِعْلُ الفَرَائِذِ وَالْنَوَافِلُ فِعْلُ الفَرَائِذِ وَالْنَوَافِلُ دَعْدَابُهُمْ مع رؤية التقصير والنخصان فِعْلُ الفَرَائِذِ وَالْنَوَافِلِ دَعْبُهُمْ Do the obligatory things and stay away from the probability things It's from their norms That's what they do all day, every day مع رؤية التقصير والنخصان Even then they see themselves to be deficient They all see themselves up to standard So they really don't see importance They forget their righteous deeds And the third one is اختيضاء وثواب الآخرة في الآخرة They like to get the reward of their righteous deeds The day of judgment They don't want it in this world They don't do things so they can get rewarded now They don't want to reap the fruits right now All of them All it is for them is اخرة اخرة اخرة نعن أَلْفَ الْيِبِدِ إِمْنِيَا مَيَ اللَّهِ بِبِيزِهِمْ سِنْ To leave the action for the sake of people their praise is to show off And to undertake an action for the sake of people is shared to associate partners with Allah And sincerity is when Allah cures you of both these الله is powerful ترقل عملي لأجل الناس ريال If you leave an action because of the people you're like if I do the people and criticize me If I do the people all like this If I do this to the people the people for them they are saying ترقل عملي لأجل الناس ريال تي لي فين an action for the people's sake is shown off yes shown off why is it why does it matter to you what the people think why are you so concerned with what the people are saying the people don't like this the people don't like this the people are not ready for this the people are not ready for this the people are not ready for this the people are not ready for this ريال is shown off سكر on is وَلَا عملي لأجل الناس doing something for the people is shared when you actually initiate a righteous deed and you were not planning to do it you did it for the people that's what الشرك وَلِخْلَا سُعَا فِيَكَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَا مِنْهُمَا اخلاس means when Allah saves you and kills you from both of those two doing something for the people and leaving off something for the people when Allah kills you from those two is when you're sincere it's sincerity so this idea this notion that you see prevalent amongst the Muslim community today which is I know it's good I know it's good I know it's a righteous deed I just don't want the people to critique me I just don't want the people to say something about me it's a sickness it's an illness of the heart and the second one is وَلَا عملي لأجل الناس doing something for the people is another it's another illness and sincerity is that Allah kills you from the two نعم سهل تُسطاري may Allah have mercy on him and said those of knowledge and vision have looked into the meaning of sincerity and found that it is nothing but the following that both a man's movement and his motionless meaning everything he does and doesn't do whether they be seen or unseen by others are for the sake of Allah alone neither the desires of the self no one wins no worldly desires must be allowed to mix with his purity of intention so the author here رحمه الله he brings a statement of who سهل ابن عبدالله تُسطر سهل ابن عبدالله تُسطر he comes from a land called تُسطر he comes from a land called what تُسطر تُسطر is a very famous city سهل ابن عبدالله تُسطر he is from the Zuhad again he is from the aesthetic people he is from the Zuhad very aesthetic here رحمه الله once said when he defined إخلاص he said the smart ones they looked in the definition and the meaning of sincerity فنم يجدوا غير هاله this is the only thing that they could see what sincerity meant which is أن تكون حركته وسكوله في سره وعالانية لله تعالى وحدة they found when they looked at the definition of sincerity that the real meaning that it revolves around is your movements your motionless when your movements and when you're still when it's private and when it's public all of it's for Allah's sake you're not doing it for anyone else so when you're doing something you're doing it for his sake when you're not doing anything you're doing it for his sake when you're private and no one can see you you're doing it for him whatever you're doing privately and in public when you're doing something you're doing it for him سبحانه وتعالى all of those are what sincerity لا يُمَزِجُهُ شيء he doesn't mix it with anything else لا نفسُن ولا هون ولا دونيان he doesn't mix it with his nafs his desires he doesn't mix it up with his inclination nor does he even mix it with the only game none of that none السرِّي السرِّي may Allah have mercy on him once said do not do anything for the sake of people and do not forsake anything for their sake and do not hide anything meaning hide any of your actions for their sake and do not disclose anything meaning disclose any of your actions for their sake for the sake of people means with the hope of being praised or thanked by them instead one's intention in all these actions should be the pleasure of Allah the author here says سرِّي لا تعمل لناس الشيء don't do anything for the people ولا تترون لهم شيء and because of the people don't leave something don't leave something because of the people ولا تُعطي لهم شيء and don't because of the people don't give something ولا تكشف لهم شيء and because of the people don't unveil something all of it be for Allah's sake wherever you do whether you withhold whether you go forward and you do something whether it's private whether it's public it does not matter whether it's public it does not matter all of it is for Allah سبحانه وتعالى the minimum level of sincerity أقل is استواء السرِّ والعالمية حذيفة المرعشي said this before is when they are level they are the same they are equal they are proportional they are proportional you are private and your public affairs are both the same you are what you are in private what you are in public you don't have a different thing behind closed doors you are a student of knowledge behind closed doors you seek knowledge behind closed doors you're studying you're learning you're praying you're fasting you're ta'aak obedience that you're doing behind closed doors and publicly you're also doing the same so you're no way different نعم look at this الحارث المحاسبي his name is موحاسبي بضم الميمي we have to praise as some Ali mentions in his Kitab and Saab the reason why he was called موحاسبي by the way is because they said he was excessive in accounting himself يحاسب نفسه كثيرا some Ali say this he was very well known for accounting himself he used to ask himself every time and he would say to himself why have you done this and they say that Allah combined for him the عمل of a private affairs and his public affairs were high they were of high level and as I said these people ايه اخوة الكرام صوفية okay and it's something that we find سبحان الله very common upon a person who is عقيد is meant to be sound and we should know Allah سبحانه وتعالى as names and attributes and Eman and صحاب and قضاء قدر وعد والوعيد the usul of the people of Sunnah he's in good line with the people of Sunnah but then when you look at him he doesn't have these things he doesn't have these تسكير to the nefs this purity that's needed that's missing from this person ما الله قيبا سبحانه وتعالى he says اصادقه هو الذي لا يبالي لو خرج كل قدر الله في قلوب الخلق بالأجل صلاحي قلبه that the truthful one this sincere person he doesn't care لا يبالي does not care لو خرج كل قدر الله في قلوب الخلق in the hearts of the people if every respect they had for him goes they don't respect him anymore every respect they had for him gone he doesn't care means اجل صلاحي قلبه if it has to mean that he perfects his own heart if that means that the cost of people respecting him will go if you have to perfect your own heart then do that don't make the concern of the people شق الباني رحمه الله in this كتاب صلاحي النبي when he authored it and the مقدمة he mentioned in this book I'm gonna write it's not gonna please a lot of people it isn't gonna please a lot of people and a lot of people are gonna hate me for it and he brings lines of poetry whereas he says that if a if a person goes to a cave and he boycotts the people he doesn't even need to mingle with the people and he goes in the middle of that mountain and that rock and he lives there there's always people are gonna blame him and say ah guess why he left he's Majinoon he lost his brain ah he's Majinoon you know why Fulani is not married I think he's got tendency towards men صح صح people will find a way to criticize you that's something if you think that won't happen then you're really not living in the real world you need to pinch yourself back to reality because the righteous deed that you did can be turned into an evil evil deed are you with me I remember a guy who was crying so much in the Ka'ba is that not good characteristics the guy was crying so much well I heard me I was like I remember the sins that he has done so it must be a lot man for him to cry like this look at this man is crying he's in the Ka'ba he's crying so much tears they found a fault I looked at this that is that's human beings for you he's saying the sins that this man has done is too much man he's blaming him for it does that make sense brothers humans will always find a righteous deed that you're doing they will find a blame for it they will find something to say الله says in the Quran اهدو موسى they harm نبي الله موسى when he chose not to show his aura in front of them he didn't want to shower with them he didn't want them to see his aura what did they say he's got illness that's why he doesn't want to do with us صح صح he's got illness the reason why he doesn't want his aura to be seen we're not hiding our aura we're here huh we're here fine what's the problem why is he hiding his one for that's the same statements that the kufara used today for the women who are in Hajab why is she covering her face we're not covering our face our face is out in the open صح the shaitan that sent revelation to those ones are the shaitan that's sending revelation to these ones صح صح صح so they'll say why is she wearing the kufra where all here in public our face is open our face can be seen why is she hiding her face and she's doing a ta'a they turned that into a what into something negative so people are always going to critique you they're going to a ridonance pleasing the people is gaya to Allah to the Lord try to attain the happiness of the people the people's acknowledgement the people's recognition is محال you will die and you will never achieve anything صلاحة you want the thing that they're praising you for yesterday they'll criticize you for that now yesterday you're praising me for that characteristic you're saying this is good characteristic of yours and today you're saying to me it's bad ورحاقا لورع عادية yeah where can I where does it that's it so the truth of a person is you don't worry about the people don't give concern to that لا تبالي بهم let that be your last concern والله صلاحة let your concern be yourself are they going to be with you the day of judgment are they going to help you the day of judgment are they going to support you the day of judgment are they going to free themselves from you they're going to free themselves from you they're going to run away from you so why do you care about them now don't your goal is to please Allah is what I'm doing in accordance to what Allah wants am I pleasing to Him am I following His command that's what you're looking for okay and one who dislikes that people see the weight of his good deeds he doesn't like people seeing the weight of his righteous deeds وَلَا يُحِبُ الْطِلَا عَنَّاسِ عَلَا بَثَاقِيلِ دَرْضِ بِالْفُسْلِ عَبَنِ must it see the righteous deeds that he doesn't want he doesn't want people seeing it he hides it he keeps everything private people don't know what he's doing in his room in his private room what he's standing how he's doing he even hides it from his spouse his wife she doesn't know some of the salaf they were praying qiyam for so many years 50 years some of them their wives didn't know some of them were fasting every Mondays and Thursdays for 30 years their wives didn't know they hide it from their own wives especially some of the salaf they took all the statement of the messenger عليه الصلاة والسلام which is he will give with his right hand so much so that he hides it his left hand doesn't know when his right hand gave so they used to say if part of my body doesn't know what my other part body they used to hide it from their own body parts let alone other people now while not disliking that they see his bad deeds look at this if people see his righteous deeds it will distress him but if they see his mistakes they won't distress him as much they won't they won't distress him as much what distresses him much causes him pain stress is people see his righteous deeds when people see his mistakes that's when he's happy because somebody do that say that today والله it's hard والله it's hard are you? since this like this is proved that he sees the game from them and that is not among the manners of the sincere and that is so here the point is the reason why he dislikes them seeing his righteous deeds and he dislikes the fact that they see his mistakes is that he's not looking to increase in the eyes of the people and grow and they see him they glorify him that's why he doesn't want it was people to see him as a low person that's it بعيف المضعف weak low-rate graded nothing no pema to him that's what he wants others have said when you seek the pleasure of Allah with sincerity Allah will grow into your mirror through which you may see the wonders of this world والله that's the truth إذا طلبت الله تعالى بصطق if what you're trying to attain is Allah with truthfulness and sincerity that's what your goal is that's what you set yourself then Allah will give you مرألة تبسر a mirror Allah will give you everything you'll see through what كل شيء everything من عجائي بدوني والآخرة you'll see all the amazing on the wonders of this world Allah will bring it to you that's if you're a person sincere اوه this is a book I told you already now we have a book called شرح المهدب يوصح قشية راضي which he explained and he died at كتابه البيع he didn't finish it he died there's a مقدمة he plays for it and in that مقدمة he talks about etiquettes of this teacher the etiquettes of the student he talks about the etiquettes of a فقيه a jurist and the one who's learning فق he talks about their matters which are very important and it's a book as I said and I say many times it's a book that deserves to be studied and taught one of the Imam's greatest books and have mentioned within its matters pertaining to teachers students jurists and those who study jurist prudence that any student of knowledge will be of dire need to know يان نقوث السيد رحمة الله تعالى فصل في العراض عن عراض الدنيا وينبغ أن لا يقصد به توصلا إلى عراض من عراض الدنيا من مال أو رياسة أو وجاهة أو ارتفاع على أقرانه أو ثلائن عند الناس أو صرف وجوه الناس

إلا ليصيب به عرضا من الدنيا لم يجد عرف الجنة يوم القيامة رواه وبداود بإسنال صحيح ومثله أحديث كثيرة وعنس وخذيفة وكاب ابن مالك العلم ليماري بيسفها أو يكاتر بالعلماء أو يصرف بيوجو أبناز إلي فليتبو مقعده

علم يخالف وعمالهم علمهم يخالف علمهم فيه يخالف علمهم
