And this piece of advice you will find it in his جامع المسائل The first volume page 168 to page 174 but before I start, I wanted to inform you of the importance of patience and the position that patience has in our religion. Patience is a high station from the stations of Islam and الله سبحانه وتعالى He speaks about patience in the Qur'an many times. امام احمد رحمه الله he said ذكر الله الصبر في القرآن الكريم في اكثر من 90 موضعا الله تباركه تعالى he mentions امام احمد سيد ذكر الله الصبر في القرآن الكريم في اكثر من 90 موضعا أكثر من 90 موضعا أكثر من 90 موضعا يمنو القيه يكفيه في مداره السالحين لذا فكرة الله يكفيه الكثير من المكان في القرآن يدولنا دلاله بينا على عظم الصبر اما على عظم شأني الصبر ورافيع مكانتي فكرة الله يكفيه الكثير من المكان في القرآن هذا الان انشارنا كيف منب luck و كم اهم على صرية و البقي إ permite مكانة على this beautiful act of patience كل هذا السرك لا يكن منة massage كل جهة التي تريد أن تكون من ده if it doesn't have patience, he won't be able to stay away from شي that Allah has destined for you and afflicts you with if you don't have patience you will not be able to endure it حيث تأكيد أن تأكيد بشكل كبير لا يمكنك أن تأكيد بشكل كبير إلى الله ويأكيد أن تأكيد بشكل كبير لأن without patients you won't be able to stay away from ويأكيد أن تأكيد بشكل كبير بشكل كبير إذا الله يحاول أن تفلق with it سبحانه وتعالى إذا كان هذا الشيء فنحن نحتاج بشكل كبير وذلك من الشيء الذي يحتاج بشكل كبير دعا يتأكيد في هذا العالم ويأكيد منه إذا تفلق القرآن اليوم ويجب أن ترى كيف الله يحدث عن شخص ويأكيد أن يحدث عن شخص حين يحاول أن نقوم بشكل كبير ويأكيد أن الله يخبرك ويأكيد بشكل كبير ويأكيد مننا من أجل أجل شخص هو يقش delivery . دخوله . لاع閣ي الوثير. شباق اللهته يعمل انه يبيح الأشياء who are patient. чем sometimes God promises the people of patients a high station and a high level in Jannah and a fine a good final above. Sometimes God gives them unrestricted position and status is for them he mentions for them unrestrictly وإنهاء الله كباركوطة على السيطة في القرآن وأنه يحب الناس وأنه يكون معهم في المساعدة وإنه يذهب إلى المساعدة وإنه يذهب إلى المساعدة فهذا فقط مثال عن كيف الله يتحدث عن المساعدة في القرآن وذلك again shows us what the importance of patience and how high it is and how important it is and the excessive need that we have for it if I sit down today and I want to speak about patience, that is going to be a sit that is going to be very long because the matter is pertaining to patience and the science or the knowledge behind it scholars have written books, volumes and the Hadith they brought together ابن أبي الدنيا مثل him he has a book on a sabr, patience on the qurab, the hardship and the suffering he has a book on it and it brings all the narrations together ابن القيب رحمه الله he wrote the book عدة الصابرين ودخيرة الشاكيرين some scholars they focus on patience on particular things, on particular acts of obedience like for example gaining knowledge for instance some scholars they wrote books in patience in whilst gaining knowledge because it's just so vast and that alone is volumes but for us insha'Allah تعالى the book we're going to be taking is just a particular part of patience which is a صبر على أد الخلق and it's about patience on the hardship, the pain of the creation and what they put you through everyone of us here knows that a human being in this world لا يسلم من أد الخلق he would not be safe from the pain and the suffering of the people the hardship and the pain that the people can make you go through you will feel pain from what the people do to you one way or another and the reason is because from our nature the way Allah created us is we're going to live with one another we're going to coexist and so if we're going to coexist our behaviors and our nature is different in the way we see things what we see right and what we see wrong and what we like and what we hate so my dealings and my nature might go opposite to yours and I might hurt you and I might make you go through something but you're bound to have patience in order to know how to deal with this a صبر شيخ الإسلامي بن وتيميا for one of the things Allah gave him is when he speaks about a topic he doesn't just speak about it alone but he brings other issues connected to it and he makes sure that the understanding of that particular point is understood from many different angles and he mentions 20 things that will aid and support a person to be patient with the suffering and the pain that he endures from the people and I ask Allah that he benefits us in this and that Allah makes us from the slaves who are patient and who have gratitude because the religion is two halves half is patience and half is gratitude الدين النصفان the religion is two halves نصف صبر و نصف شكر half is patience and half is based on the Hadith of the Prophet ﷺ إن أمره كله خير إن أصابتوا ضراء صبر فكان خير الله و إن أصابتوا صراء شكر فكان خير الله و ليست ذلك إلا للمؤمن because in this world that you're living in you're going through one of two situations you're either going through good times where you're going to come with gratitude or you're going to go through hardship which you're going to come with patience and that's how a believer is so I ask Allah تعالى أن ينفعنا بما علمنا و أن يعلمنا ما ينفعنا و ألا يجعل فيما علمنا و بالا علينا I ask Allah that he benefits us with what he teaches us and he increases us in understanding and knowledge and that he doesn't also سبحانه وتعالى make the knowledge that we already have a proof against us and he doesn't destroy us and that Allah تعالى he makes whatever we're learning here إن شاء الله and all other lessons that Allah تعالى he makes a proof for us and not against us verily الله تعالى الله is one who hears who is close to his creation and he accepts the supplication of the believers we're now going to start إن شاء الله قال الشيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية رحمه الله ابن تيمية says there are many things that are going to aid and support a slave in patience and then he lists those things now there are many things some things that will aid a person to be patient and then he goes the first one is أن يشهد the first one is from the 20 that a person testifies أن الله عز وجل خالق أفعال العباد that Allah تعالى is the one who created the action of the creation حركاتهم والسكناتهم their movements and when they're not moving and they're still الله created it سبحانه وتعالى وإراداتهم and their wills everything is created by Allah فما شاء الله كان everything Allah wills would happen وما لم يشأ لم يكون and whatever Allah does not will will not happen فلا يتحرك في العالم العلوي والسفلي ذرره nothing moves in the upper universe in the upper world and in the lower world nothing moves ذرره even a mustard seed إلا بإذنه except with Allah تبارك وتعالى his permission ومشيئتي and Allah's will فالعباد آله the creation and the slaves are an instrument فنظر إلى الذي صلطه صلطهم عليك look at the one who has afflicted you with them ولا تنظر إلى فعليه do not look at the action of the creation بكة to you تسترح من الهم والغم and if you do that he said you will find comfort, tranquility, relaxation from distress and depression now at this point شكول إسلامي بلوتيمي is the first point that helps you and aids you in being patient with the pain that people can put you through and that is to know and to testify and to fully be aware of that this slave that you're looking at his actions his movements his silence everything of it is created by Allah سبحانه وتعالى even his wills and his motives are created by Allah سبحانه وتعالى so nothing in this world moves nothing takes place in this world whether it be this world or whether it be higher above nothing happens except with Allah's will except with Allah's permission سبحانه وتعالى so if I focus on the one who is running everything then I will find tranquility and comfort instead of focusing on this creation who I have been tested with and that I realize that this is all what Allah تبارك وتعالى wills and wishes and that is what Allah says in Surah التكوير when he say وما تشاءون إلا أن يشاء الله رب العالمين that you do not will except if Allah wills سبحانه وتعالى the Lord of the Universe so we believe أفعال العباد is مخلوق the actions of the creations are created and that the slave will not will something unless Allah تبارك وتعالى he has willed so that first point is what helps us to be far from distress and pain and agony then we realize okay I should really focus on this creation the second point the sheikh says one of the things that will aid you as a person to be patient and to endure is that you witness you testify your own shortcomings you bear witness to your sins وأن الله إنما صلطهم عليه بدن بي and Allah afflicted you with these people because of your own sins كما قال تعالى as Allah has said وما أصابكم من مصيبة فبما كسبت أيديكم ويعفوا عن كثير you are not afflicted with an affliction except because of that which your hands have put forward you are only afflicted with this affliction because of what your hands have put forward and then Allah goes on to say ويعفوا عن كثير but Allah has also forgiven you for a lot He is not holding your account to everything that your hands have put forward you are only being punished for some of it so you know the reason why these people are commenting nasty things about you and you know the reason why these people are speaking to you in the way they are speaking to you and they are dealing with you in the way they are dealing with you that it is because of you it is because of your shortcoming it is because of something you have put forward and something you have done فإذا شهيد العبد ابن تيمير then says if the slave bears witness to that أن جميع ما يناله من المكروه فسببه ذنوبه that every single thing that you are going through that you are suffering from a hardship that you are going through فسببه ذنوبه the reason for it is your sins ابن تيمير then says if you do that and you bear witness that everything that is happening your hardship that you are going through it is because of your sins ابن تيمير then says what would you do the person busies himself with repentance and then he starts busying himself with his تغفار منذ ذنوبه from the sins this word is تغفار and توبه does not mean the same by the way توبه نستغفار means two different things especially they are from the words إذا اجتماعه افتراقه وإذا افتراقه اجتماعه و لذلك سمض روايات of the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام where the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام he says استغفر الله I ask Allah for forgiveness فإني اما توبوا إلى الله sorry توبوا إلى الله repent to Allah فإني أتوبوا في اليوم مئة مرة I repent to Allah يومي 100 times so when the scholars they said since the prophet said عليه الصلاة والسلام I repent to Allah I repent to Allah every day 100 times does the person say استغفر الله استغفر الله or does he say اتوبوا الله اتوبوا الله اتوبوا الله or Allah I repent to you I repent to you what does he say what does he say you see الشيخ والسلام تيميا he has a letter إن شاء الله if Allah gives us another time we'll go over it with this little رسالة رسالة في الاستغفار or the issue of this الاستغفار only some benefits that he wrote on it شيخ والسلام ابنه تيميا عليها رحمة الله I want you guys to research the difference between اتوبة and استغفار I want you guys to research إن شاء الله I'll tell you tomorrow what it is when the person testifies and admits that every bear witness that every hardship I'm going through the reason for it is my sins then what will that do for you look at the benefit that it has the minute you do that اشتغلأ اشتغلأ اشتغلأ اشتغلأ the person busies himself with repentance asking for forgiveness from his sins اللتي صلطه عليه بسببها repentance and forgiveness from the sins due to it you are tested with this person in the first place بسببها عن ذميه ولوميه والواقعات of him the people were what were rebuking you and they were blaming you and they were slandering you those things that the people are doing about doing to you which is to rebuk you which is to blame you which is to slander you all of that had happened because of the sins that you have done and ابنه تيميا is that if you bear witness that this has happened to you because of your own sins then you are going to busy yourself with repentance and forgiveness وإذا رأيت العبد يقع في الناس oh pay attention قاعدة these are قواعد وإذا رأيت if you see العبد that a slave يقع في الناس he then slanders the people or he speaks about the people إذا آذو who if they harm him ولا يرجع إلى النفس and he doesn't go back to himself so when the people say things about him when the people are out there harming him you see if you see that إذا رأيت الناس وإذا رأيت العبد and you see that slave لا يرجع إلى الناس he doesn't go back to himself below me blaming himself ولستغفار and he's not doing استغفار فعلم know أن مصيبته مصيبة حقيقية know that this person is truly afflicted person his affliction is greater than the harm of the people whenever you see a slave when the people are blaming him or the people are slandering him or the people are rebuking him he doesn't go back to himself and say what have I done what have I put forward what sin have I done and then doesn't go for استغفار and اتوبة doesn't do that فعلم know أن مصيبته this person's affliction that he's going through is greater and bigger than what he really thinks is going through وإذا تابع استغفار but if he repents and he asks for forgiveness وقال and then he says هاذا بذنوب the reason why these people are blaming me and rebuking me is because of my sins and they're slandering me is because of my sins صارت في حقه نعمة then this has become a blessing for him what the people are saying about him is a blessing for him what the people are doing to him is a blessing for him the slandering it becomes a blessing for him قال علي ابن أبي طالبن ابن طالبن is saying this he said علي ابن أبي طالبن he said كلمة من جواهر he said ابن طالبن says علي ابن أبي طالبن he said a statement which is from the جواهر gems of words a gem jewels he said لا يرجو لا يرجو جوان عبد إلا ربه لا يرجو جوان عبد إلا ربه a slave should not have hope except in his Lord ولا يخافن and he should not fear عبد a slave إلا ذنبه except in his own sins don't hope except from الله تعالى and don't be scared except from your own sins وروية عنه وعن غيره and it is also been narrated from علي and also other than علي which is what ما نزل بلاون an affliction and a calamity is not sent down إلا بدن بن except because of a sin ومروفي عنه and it is not lifted إلا بتوبة except with the repentance so this is the second point that sheikh what is now in Tameer mentions end of quote this is connected to the first one the second one is connected to the first one so first of all you you've observed and you realize that the slaves actions are created by Allah سبحانه وتعالى and then what you did was you looked at who is the one who afflicted you with this creation I use this human to afflict you and you say to yourself the one who has is Allah سبحانه وتعالى then you ask yourself the third question why did Allah afflicted me with this creation and then your answer becomes ذنو بي my sins وتفريضي am I shortcoming وتقصيري and my shortfallings and instead of wasting your time and preoccupying your time with بيسبه insulting them in return والواقع تفيههم and trying to slander them in return ولومهم and blaming them يشتغل بعيب نفسي ثم تبينك ولكم أنت تنقص بالفعل وكيف تطلق تساعد وساعة وارشةو لابد استخدام الله وتعالى then what happens is everything that is then said to you or done to you becomes a blessing from Allah سبحانه وتعالى فهي سيز الثالث ، الثالث ، أن يشهد العبد حسن الثواب الذي وعده الله لمن عفا وصبر كما قال تعالى وجزاء سيئة سيئة مثلها فمن عفا وأصلح فأجره على الله إنه لا يحب الظالمين ولما كان الناس عنده مقابلة الأدى ثلاثة أقسام ، ابن تيمي يقول ، الثالث هو أن الناس ينبعون العزيز ، يبعون العزيز إلى حسن الثواب ، وأصلح فأجره على الله إنه لا يحب الظالمين ، والله لا يحب الظالمين ، والله لا يحب الظالمين في هذه الثالث ، والله يشهد وجزاء سيئة مثلها وأصلح فأجره على الله إنه مع الله إنه لا يحب الظالمين ، والله لا يحب الظالمين ، والله يشهد وجزاء سيئة مثلها ولما كان الناس عنده مقابلة الأدى ثلاثة أقسام ، ابن تيمي يقول ، because he is taking this from the ayah and the people are in response to the harm that they are afflicted with, they are of three types the first one is a transgressor, an oppressive individual يأخذ فوق حقه, he takes more than his rights ومك تصيدون a person who is moderate يأخذ بقدر حقه, he only takes what is his rights ومحسينون a good doer يأعفوا he forgives ويترك حقه and he forgives and he leaves his rights ذكر الأقسام الثلاثة في هذه الآية الله يشهد these three in the verse فأولها للمقتصدين فأول part وجزاء سيئة مثلها is the مقتصد you punched me I punched him ووسطوها and then in the middle فمن عفا وأصلح فأجلو على الله the one that is in the middle here is للسابقين the four fronts the righteous ones وآخروها and the last one is إن أولا يحب الظالمين is للظالمين the oppressors and then he says ويشهد نداء المناديوم القيامة and also that the person he bears witness that cooler that's going to cool the day of judgment ألا لا ألا ليقم ألا ليقم من وجب أجره على الله the Allah is من حرف النداء stand up من وجب أجره على الله stand up the one whose rights are today going to be rewarded for him the one who said فأجره على الله his reward is ready for him it's placed in the hands of Allah he's going to be rewarded stand up the one whose rights is with Allah he's going to be rewarded فألا يقم إلا من عفا وأصلح no one else is going to stand up except the one who is what فمن عفا وأصلح the only one who's going to stand up is the one who forgave and rectified so once you know that the day of judgment this sound is going to be made and this call is going to be done وإذا شهد مع ذلك فوت الأجري بالإنتقام if the person bears witness that he's going to miss this reward فوت الأجري this reward is going to miss you بالإنتقام if you retaliate والاستفاء سهول عليه الصبر و العفو then it becomes easy for you to be patient and forgive if you know ألا يقم من وجب أجره على الله then you're going to miss that calling and you're not going to stand up that day because what did you do you retaliated you already took your rights then it will become easy for you he says to be patient and to forgive here the sheikh رحم الله end of quote he's talking about this time you look at the حسن with the web you look at the reward that's in this act of yours that which Allah has prepared for these people the station they gave the station of what مقام صبر على أدى الخلق the patience on the harm that the people put you through and the two stations are two that the ayah mentions فمن عفا فمن صبر the one who what فمن عفا و أصلح the first station is the صبر patience remember this when the people afflict you with the pain there's two stations the first one is مرطبة صبر patience you're patient with the people's harm that they put you through the station that is higher than it and it's greater than it is عفو يعفو عنهم and the station of it is greater عفو station is greater than the station of patience because Allah SWT says عافينا عن الناس those who forgive the people والله يحبوا المحسينين Allah loves righteous people so look what level, what station is عافينا عن الناس what station have they reached والله يحبوا ايش محسينين so it's مقام الاحسان and not a lot of people reach that people become Muslims they become Muslims not everybody is a muhsin like him the people who reach this stage are the مقاربين the ones who are very close to Allah so as we said the stations of the people in this verse is how many 3 مراتب 3 stations the first ones are who the ones who وجزاء السيئة سيئة مثلها مرتبة المجازات على سيئة بسيئة مثلها you wanna harm me I'm gonna do exactly the same to you retaliation according to what you did to me just like عاقبتم فعاقبوا بمثل مع عقبتم به and then Allah also says ولا ان صبرتم again الله ما جزاء صورة نحل اي 126 are we taking your rights but remember this station no extra that's what he's saying وجزاء سيئة سيئة مثلها مثلها فإن عاقبتم فعاقبوا بمثل مع عقبتم exactly according he did this to you exactly can't go overboard that's the first station okay that's your rights you're allowed to do that the station after is عفو is greater وذلك الله says فمن عافا واصلحة فأجلوا على الله the reward here is with Allah and remember the قاعدة we always mention ابهامو الأجري the fact that the reward hasn't been mentioned is what دلالة على عظمي على عظم الأجري it shows that this reward is great فأجلوا على الله means you're going to get a great reward the third one is the third station is برتبط المعاقبة بأشد من المثل I'm gonna not exceed my limits with you you just slapped me I'm gonna get myself a shotgun blow your face off this is what this is إنه لا يحبوا ظالمين this is تعدي exceeding your limits and go overboard in your limits صحيح so the people are those three types ظالم اللي نفسه ومقتصد وسابق بالخيرات بإذن الله those are the three stations this is ظالم he takes over his rights هو يأخذ فوق حقه this is right he wants to use something that happened before to do extra the other one is مقتصد he's in the middle هو الذي يأخذ بقدر حقه he takes according to his rights ومحسين is what يعفوا ويترك وخيروا هذه الأقسم والذلك الشيخ وليسلام يبنو تيميا he mentions that all three of them are what is mentioned in this verse as for the statement of there's a going to come a cooler and he will call ينادي مناديا يوم القيامة ألالي يقوم من وجب أدره على الله then this hadith a long time ago when I looked at it أبي حاتي narrated it رحمه الله وإبنو مارا دوهي ألبي حاكي شعب الإبال and also I'm going to and listen to the one who narrated it and if you look at الدرات المنفور of سيوطي رحمه الله if I'm not wrong and my mind is not telling me incorrect then I think it was not authentic but but the ayah is clear the ayah is sufficient that is if I'm right insane and I'm not wrong and the conclusion is إن شاء الله انتعالى بين الله الكريد سبحانك الله من بحمدك أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله أستغفرك وأتوب إليه
