 فشرف بالشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا بابا دلا وياله من شراف عظيمي وخصنا بأفضل الأديان وسنة الغرائي والقرآن الشيخ سيز وخصنا وخصنا ميزوات وخصنا ميز الله سبحانه وتعالى يونيكلي يونيكلي فايفدس وخصنا يونيكلي فايفدس بأفضل الأديان with the greatest of religion وسنة الغرائي والقرآن وخصنا يونيكلي فايفدس meaning معشراء الأمة المحمدية وخصنا يونيكلي فايفدس is for the nation of the prophet this umma he favored us over the other nations فضلنا على سائر الأمم and this is the meaning of تخصيس in other words تخصيس is what brothers إثبات الحكم للمذكور ونفع عما عداه فايفدس something of a ruling for a particular thing when negating it from everything else إثبات الحكم it is to affirm the ruling or it's to affirm something for either a particular person a particular group it doesn't matter but affirming something for someone or something and it's to negate it from everybody else إثبات الحكم في المذكور أمل المذكور ونفع عما عداه and it's to negate it from everything from everything else so what he's saying is that الله يونيكلي فايفدس this nation only and he hasn't favored any other nation with what with the greatest of religion which is this religion and this is exactly which is كنتم you are خير أمة أخرجة للناس you are the best of nations so where the best of nations that has been brought out where the greatest of nations سورة ألي عمران I-110 so we specifically been said كنتم خير أمة and I've already elaborated on this once before and I'm going to say again which is that the word خير it is taken from the form of أخير which is أفعل which is a superlative right and the حمزة was dropped because of the excessive usage of the word خير أخير كنتم خير أمة أخرجة للناس أخير أمة أخرجة للناس الله فايفلس with what بأفضل للأدياني the greatest of religion greatest is also what my brothers maybe أخير can be yeah نعم بأفضل للأدياني the greatest of what religions which is a superlative بأفضل is a what جار and a majroul and we are أفضل which is أسي مجرور what is the حرف وجر what is it attached to meaning the greatest religion of what it is connected to the word which is خصة because the word خصة it is necessary for it to be attached to it are you with me brothers the reason why is because if you say الله if you say الله you have to connect it to something الله uniquely what so you have to attach it to the جار and the majroul which is بأفضل للأدياني he favored us he uniquely gave us this so somebody is going to say to you what is it that he uniquely gave to us so it would be what بأفضل للأدياني the best of religions so that is what is connected to أفضل is a مضاف and أديان is مضاف إليه الله favor us brothers with what he favored us and he specifically gave us the greatest of religion what religion دين الإسلام the religion of Islam because the شخص الأدياني خصة للأدياني خصة للأدياني the best of religions what religion is the best is you referring to from those the religion of Islam and you know brothers you're all aware of the term Islam has a general usage and it has a specific usage here he's referring to the specific usage of the word Islam because the previous religions are also called Islam but here he means the Islam which is specific and our Islam our Islam the Islam that our Prophet Muhammad SAW أدياني is a plural is a plural and it's جمع التكسير and it is the plural of دين and in the Arabic language linguistically the word دين means it means obedience and it also means in compass it means sorry recompense صح as for the technical usage of the word it means هو ما جاء به النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم it is what the Prophet came out with من ما شرعه الله it is that which the Prophet came with by way of legislation from Allah and the way to see this religion it is through the Kitab order those are the two sources in which our religion comes from it is through the Kitab and the Sunnah that is what that is what is meant by that is what is meant by دين religion now here brothers there's a إشكال here there is a an issue it needs to be solved which is if we say بأفضل الادياني and we took the opinion that it is a superlative or even if you make it a comparative it doesn't matter you're going to mean that there is a there is going to be the other religions such as Christianity and Judaism are religions of for the virtue so question is that is أفضل على بابها or ليس it على بابها in other words does أفضل do what it should do or is it something else in this context we can take both opinions and they don't have any problems if we take it as a superlative and we leave it at its original form and leave it to do its job then it won't have a problem with what we're trying to say as well and I hope you guys understand إشكال here right now it's important that you do because if we say أفضل for instance let me show you an example if I say أبو بكر أبو بكر it's taller than نصور الدين this does not negate and does not go against the fact that نصور الدين is tall rather it proves that نصور الدين is tall it actually indicates from that that he is tall why because it is ignorant and it is wrong to even compare two people who are not compatible for one another for you to even compare him to if you're so tall then you would have not been compared to him the fact that they chose to compare you to نصور الدين is an indication to show that نصور الدين is tall and so are but the difference here is that you're much taller you are much taller so if we compare religions and we say that religion of Islam is better then that means that Christianity and Judaism are both good as well but it's just that Islam is better we can't take that approach and say yes that's what's meant by it but the Christianity and the Judaism that has been referred to is before it was tampered with it is before what before it was tampered with even now and we say it is good in the parts that are true the parts that are Haq it is good whether it be Christianity whatever that's in their religion that is Haq in other words it is in accordance to our religion that our religion affirmed are you with me then that no doubt is what it's good and also that which was before they tampered with is also what is so good we can also take the second approach which is that we say that it's not it's normal day today it's not it just means that Islam is a good religion and it's no comparative nor a superlative we can take those two approaches but it's best to leave the word to do its job and that we don't take it from its work that is what that is what's better so we leave it like as it is the best of religions so the best over all other religions whether it be Christianity whether it be Judaism Islam is the best of religion and it's the seal of all religions it's seal the best of religions and Sunnah Sunnah means what Sunnah linguistically means it means it means a path but the meaning that is meant here is not the linguistic usage it is the technical usage which is what that is it is anything that is attributed to the Prophet ﷺ whether that be a speech or an action or even a consent so it is the Prophet ﷺ's actions it is the Prophet ﷺ's speech and everything in which he consented to that was done in his presence ﷺ that is what's meant by that is what's meant by that is the meaning and the usage of the author here so it doesn't mean the sheikh does not mean the usage and the إصطلاح of the أصوليين they say that the sunnah is what wherever the religion has legislated in a forceful manner and you don't deserve to be punished for leaving it sorry the wajib is that which the sharia has requested from you in a forceful manner and if you do leave it you do deserve to be punished whereas the sunnah is opposite to that which is the sharia has not requested from you to do it in a forceful manner rather it has requested you to do it in a recommended manner you see and if you do leave it off and don't do it then what you do miss off is a reward you could have gained but you won't get punished for it whereas wajib is something that it's obligatory you have to do so the سوليين they mean something different to what the author is trying to say here you with me the sunnah here the sunnah here that the sheikh is using encompasses the recommended that which is an obligatory and also the wajib itself so the sunnah here that's what it means both because it is more general and it is exactly the حديث of ابن ساري رضي الله تعالى عنه which is narrated in narrated by أصحاب السنان except the نسائي they all narrated it and the narrated it so the Prophet SAW said in that long حديث عليكم بسنة أبن you is my sunnah وسنة الخلفاء الراشدين المهديين عضوا عليها بالنواجد وإياكم ومحتثات الأمور so in that حديث the Prophet SAW said أبن you is my sunnah and the sunnah of the rightly guided خلفاء so أبن you is my sunnah means my way my speech, my actions so it is general this time okay the sheikh then goes وَسُنَّةِ الْغَرَّاءِ وَسُنَّةِ الْغَرَّاءِ what does the وَدْغَرَّاءَ means first of the وَدْغَرَّاء is a wasfun it is a description a description for what the sunnah so what does it mean what it means is بِهَلْ بَيَالْضَ it means the white the sunnah is white the وَدْغَرَّاء the وَدْغَرَّاء is the white that is on the face of the horse it is the white that is on the face of the horse and the author he took it from the حديث of the Prophet SAW which he said جِتُ كُبِهَا بَيْبَا وَنَقِيَا there's a rewire that says I have come with you this religion white and pure not just white but it's pure نقية means pure from any filth from any painting from any tampering it has come بِهَا بَيْبَا وَنَقِيَا white and pure and of course over time it got tampered with it got changed things were added to it and things were subtracted from it but the Prophet SAW when I came to it it was white جِتُكُم بِهَا بَيْبَا it was white so the sunnah is white in another rewire the Prophet SAW said تَرَكُتُكُم عَلَلْ مَحَجَّةِ الْبَيْبَا لَيْلُهَا كَنَّهَارِهَا لا يَزُّغَ عَلَهَا إِلَّهَا لِكِ what is it? I have left you on a white white place some scholars they said and if I'm not wrong I might be wrong that the rewire does it have تَرَكُتُكُم عَلَلْ مَحَجَّة does it have the word مَحَجَّة in it? I think that was a mistake that came from the works of the Newtonian he always used it so because of that many people thought that it was in the wording of the hadith that is if I'm wrong if I'm right that is if I'm right but it is تَرَكُتُكُم عَلَلْمَيْبَا I have left you upon the white I have left the pure upon white لَيْلُهَا its night is like its day meaning in other words there is no night it's so white it's all day that's the way I've left you so it's white the message is صلى الله عليه وسلم and this is what the author means وَسُنَّةِ الغَرَّاءِ غَرَّاءِ وَالْقُرْعَالِ and the Quran the Quran is also what but the question rises here is why did the author connect the Sunnah to the Quran why did he do that وَالْقُرْعَالِ when it's clear وضع القرآن is the first source of revelation or first source of evidence we say عطف القرآن على سرمنا تلا يادول على أنه اتابعو اللها because that happened it doesn't show that because the wow in itself doesn't show ترتيب are you with me brothers the wow in the Arabic language only shows مغايرا that these two things are different but it doesn't show ترتيب ولا تعقيب the wow never shows sequence فاة فاة ولكن الواو لا يوجد الواو لا يوجد فقط لأنه فعله فاة فاة فاة فاة هنا لا يعني أن القرآن هو اتابع for the sunnah لا يوجد طريقاً هو it rather the sunnah comes after the quran and the sunnah is after the quran نعم و كما يقوله the quran it means the quran is also the quran it's also white and it's clear there is no tint in it you know why because the prophet's job was to clarify the quran and the sunnah it's clear sorry the quran i send the quran down onto you mohammad so you can clarify for the people لذلك العمل من سنة was to clarify what is in the Qur'an and that is what our Prophet did. He clarified the Qur'an by his utterance, he clarified the Qur'an by his actions and he also clarified the Qur'an by the consent which he consented to when the companions had done actions. So his sunnah was an explanation of the Qur'an and our mother Aisha, رضي الله تعالى عنها when she said, after being asked about the Prophet that she said كالخلقه القرآن, his characteristics and his etiquette was the Qur'an. In other words, he was an example of what you would find in the Qur'an. So if you opened the Qur'an and you looked, you would see what the Prophet ﷺ or you would know. Sorry, what is in the Qur'an by his actions. So that was a very powerful statement of our mother Aisha to say about the Prophet ﷺ. We'll conclude there إن شاء الله تعالى for today's class. I will carry on tomorrow from the next line which he says وكم له من نعمة علينا ومنة أوصالها إلينا. سبحانك الله وبحمدك أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله استغفرك وأتوب إليه.
