 فشرف بل اشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا بدا بدا ويا له من شراف عظيم الحمد لله يا رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وشدوى الله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل وشدوى النسيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بيحسان إلى يوم الديل أما بعد ورين الشرح هذا خطاب تعظيم العلم written by الشيخ صالح ابن عبدالله ابن حمد العصيم رحمه الله we start at what the author said قال ابن رقيم رحمه الله في كتابه الفوائد إذا طالع نجب الهمة في ظلام في ظلام ليل البطالة وردفه قامر العزيمة أشراقة أرض القلبي بنور ربها the author says in this book of his كتابه الفوائد which ابن القيم where he wrote this book for us to combine and to compile in this book benefits and the book truly is a beneficial book and ابن القيم says إذا طالع نجب الهمة في ظلام ليل البطالة if the star if the star rises on the aspiration in a dark night meaning if a person he wasn't aspired he had never had aspiration and then the star of aspiration came to him then what it would be like is وردفه قامر العزيمة and then the conviction the smooth of conviction came with it then it would be like a land which was dark before أشراقة بنور ربها in which the light of Allah has now made it clear for a person to see so what he's trying to say is that the stars is aspiration and the moon is the conviction if those two come to a land then the land becomes bright it is something you can see and it's got a lot of بلاغة in Arabic language in it so he's trying to say that the heart is like that if a person comes with aspiration and remember the chapter was called جمع رهيمة النفسية عليه bring your aspiration together and to leave off this concept of dividing and splitting your intentions to place all your drive in one thing if you want to embark on becoming a person if you want to achieve the world then go for that if you want to be a student of knowledge you have to give your heart and your mind and everything you own into this knowledge doesn't allow a shirk it doesn't allow you to associate partners with it it wants you to do it alone then he brings when he says او مالبسين او مأكلين او مشربين لم يشمر رائحة العلم anyone who connects his aspiration and drive to what بمطعمين فود this person his aspiration is food او مالبسين or clothes to wear او مأكلين or food to eat او مشربين or something to drink he lives for that this individual if you see him his life is only about food it's only about what to wear or what to eat or what to drink this individual لم يشمر رائحة العلم you're not going to smell the fragrance of knowledge let alone attain knowledge let alone gain knowledge you're not even going to smell it if your drive is food and that's what you want and it's about clothes and how your appearance looks then what you need to know is that لم يشمر رائحة العلم you're not going to taste the sweetness of knowledge knowledge is a fragrance it's a smell you're not going to get that fragrance that's not for you the reason is because what you've done you're seeking of knowledge you've associated it with other things knowledge doesn't allow associate partners with it a statement which I really liked that the author didn't mention but I find it very powerful it's all written by Ibn al-Hajj Al-Jazair Ibn al-Hajj Al-Jazair he said a very powerful statement he said in a line of poetry he said حنغا can be removed it can be repelled you can get rid of حنغا with a dry bread فعلا ما تكثروا حساراتي ووساوسي so why are you really stressed about and what is it that's making you become very worried and concerned you can really get rid of what give an example to people one person goes out and he buys an expensive those central London Piccadilly Circus those two restaurants where they even entered this restaurant I remember one time me and a cousin of mine went to Piccadilly Circus we got very hungry so we ended up going to a restaurant they wouldn't even let us go in just because of how we looked so there's an appearance that you have to have in order to even enter the restaurant صح you guys have seen that right there is you have to have a particular appearance in order for you to what for you to be even able to enter it let alone so I was wondering if I have to if I have to be wearing a very expensive clothes to enter this place because you're going to bring them bad customers in are you with me then I was worrying what the menu price is going to be right but if I just went home took a dry bread butter jam drank it with water with that fill me up so that man who ate an eye were both full rather I might be better I might be eating healthy food but with Attica Brothers a rich man saw a poor man eating bread he saw him eating food that wasn't expensive very cheap rich man who could buy who can weigh this poor man on a weighing scale however much weight he is he can give him more gold he saw a poor man eating and he became jealous of this poor man because of the health Allah gave him that he is able to eat this food which he is due to his health he can't eat this rich man can never buy the health that this poor man has a rich man who envies and is jealous of a poor man and it's from the blessings of Allah that you don't yet understand that you have right now with you as an individual healthy so this food and hunger that we are all running around we are trying to make money if you really think about it the gist of it is that it's a hunger you can really remove a dry bread can really remove this hunger and water but when we are demanding a student of knowledge and that's what a student of knowledge stick to that's what they were like he didn't go far and high as to what he flavored food our messenger عايشة said كان يمرو عايشة said it would go by season and another season and another season may go by and our house there won't be no file it so he asked how did you guys live then what did you live on and she said the two blacks referring to water and dates and this is in the Arabic language it's called what because the date is black the water in black but one overcomes the other one in name so they call it just like Abu Bakr and Omar they call him not but his name overcomes then the other name what's the mother and the father called أمان أبريت بابو بابو التغليب بابو التغليب so here so here the prophet will live on what what would he live on the prophet will live on the a date and water that's who خير خلق الله the best man who ever placed his foot on the face of this earthly he lived on this when he died at the day of judgment the other prophet he told us that الله سبحانه وتعالى told him I think it's a hadith that the person would say يقول ابن أدم مالي the person would say my wealth and it would be then said to him و هلك يبن أدم or the children of Adam is it for you من ماليك إلا ما أكلت فأفنيت what wealth do you own except that which you ate and you destroyed you used it أو لبست فأبليت or that which you wore and when you wore it it wore out أو تصدقت فأمضيت or you gave it in charity you gave it out for the sake of Allah سبحانه وتعالى and now you've got it ready for you the day of judgment that's all your wealth is it's food you ate, it's gone you took it to the toilet or clothes that you bought it was brown new when you first bought it you loved it a month or two on the line you start wanting the other one that's out there and the other third which is a صدق which you gave which the day of judgment you await for to give you الله is going to give you a reward for it so anybody who connects a student of knowledge who makes his ultimate goal while seeking knowledge he wants to have a fancy watch he wants to look very good the dunya means something to him and this person he's not going to smell the framess of knowledge you know food before you eat it when your wife's cooking or your mother's cooking what happens you smell it first right you smell the food first that's a مقدمة introduction then after that you eat it knowledge is like that it has a fragrance you are going to be prevented from the fragrance let alone the what let alone you eating you're not going to be able to smell it يا محروم هذا عبدل هذا عبدل محروم بسبب you're seeking knowledge and you're trying to attain knowledge with a heart that has in it مطعم أو ملكر you want to eat هذا طفلmedi هو حسن who seeks knowledge so long that his food becomes cold and gets warmed up for him and then he keeps reading and gets warmed up again and he keeps reading و when he gets warmed up again, that's how he leaves it like or he even forgets to eat, and he remembers that like, what am I .. why do I feel pain .. I never ate it and it's by Allah's will .. let me eat so that's how a student of knowledge is like that has to be reminded when you don't get up and remember we are Rahimullah, he's sister she used to break the food for him and pay attention to this even the eating that we eat we want to spend time we don't want to wash our hands, we want to sit for hours long يريدون أن يقوم بإضافة الهاتف حقاً يأخذ الهاتف، يضع كل شيء في الوصول يرغبه، يريدون أن يجمع الهاتف الذي يجمعه، right؟ لذلك، كانه أفضل أفضل بطريقة أفضل في كيف يمكنه الهاتف إلى الهاتف لذا، الهاتف سيأخذ ورغباً إلى أقلات صغيرة يجب أن يقوم بإعادة الهاتف وإنه سيأخذ ورغباً وإنه سيأخذ ورغباً يجب أن يكون أفضل على إضافة الهاتف وذلك، إبن عقيل، كانه يتكلم منه يقول أن الوقت التي أحاولتها أماماً، كانت الوقت التي ستأخذ كانت أفضل لأمامي الوقت التي أحاولتها أماماً، كانت ما؟ الوقت التي ستأخذ إبن عقيل، الشارحة الفية، إبن مالك، إنه شرحة ثم، أمامه الله، قد أنه قد بطريقه وعلم بأن العلم ليس يناله منهمه في مطعم أو من البسين فحرس لتبلغ فيه حظاً وافراء وهجر له طيباً المنامي وغلسي وعلم أن العلم ليس يناله أن لا one will attain knowledge this line of poetry is attributed to Ali ibn Abi-Talib Ali said this وعلم أن العلم and knowledge ليس يناله، نون will attain it منهمه في مطعم the person whose aspiration is in food أو ملبسين or it's in clothing فحرس strive لتبلغ فيه حظاً وافراء strive to attain a high level in it, in knowledge وهجر له I'm due to knowledge boycott طيباً المنامي the joy and the sweetness of sleep get rid of that وغلسي I live in the morning early morning what time is Ghalas صلاة الفجر when it just the sky is just becoming bright 6 o'clock yeah 5 o'clock come out for class وغلسي yeah brothers anybody who wants to learn and attain knowledge if he's not awake after Fajr if he's not studying and he should really question himself if he's a student of knowledge if he's a what if he's a true student of knowledge ألمام الشعبي ورحمة الله they asked him one time they came up to him and they said to him من أين لك هذا العلم where have you attained all of this knowledge from ألمام الشعبي and he responded by saying بِنَفِّي لِعْتِمَاد I left off I left off depending on anyone or anything I depending on and I didn't depend on myself I depending on Allah that's one the next is وَسَيْرُ فِي الْبِلَاد and traveling the land anywhere I would learn knowledge and I would attain knowledge I traveled to it whether it's the east the west the north or the south I would even leave my comfort my house and go to another country to attain knowledge I say to him بِلَاد is very powerful it's the one thing that makes people leave really when you see the serious student of knowledge يا إخوة trying to learn the comfort of your house doesn't work even in your neighborhood in your area doesn't work you should go out travel take cut distance we said yesterday that if you give knowledge إذا أعطيته كلك if you give knowledge everything that you have knowledge will feel sorry for you will give you something in return but it will never give you everything that's after you gave what that's after you've given it everything you had and the third he mentioned is وَصَبْر كَصَبْرِ الْحِمَار I became patient and I showed patients like the patients of the donkey the donkey is used he's abused some countries in the world when you go and you look at the donkey you'll see that people make a hole in his back they take a knife they make a hole in his back it's bleeding slightly they take a stick whenever they want it to to work properly and they poke it from that injured part of his body and it works it works and that is the oppression of this animal of Allah SWT وَضُلْمُ وَضُلُمَاتِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَ oppression is the darkness is from the darkness from the darkness of the day of judgment but look at the donkey it's very patient it works it's the strongest one of the strongest animals people move with it they place everything on it he said I showed patients like the donkey and that's what knowledge needs from you when you're studying it it needs patients you need to show patients if you don't you're not going to attain it knowledge is going to try to break you but you should let it take it from it and the last one he mentioned was وَبُكُورِ كَبُكُورِ الْغُرَابِ and also leaving in the early morning just like the crow does so leaving in the morning is another way to show that you've gained knowledge that's why and we do this is why he attained knowledge he realized why he did وَبُكُورِ leaving in the morning when everyone else is running to their dunya purposes your ham is knowledge not what I mean او مَلْبَسِن او مَشَرَب and as a student of knowledge you're going to sometimes feel humiliated sometimes you're going to feel low but that's just a part of knowledge remember one day that you're going to get out of this عبدالله العباس he said I was humiliated when I was a student of knowledge and now that I've attained knowledge I'm honorable when you're seeking knowledge you go to a person you say teach me he'll say I'm not going to teach you please teach me you beg him you humiliate yourself humble yourself you beg him he looks at you he says tomorrow at 12 o'clock midnight you're like okay you feel bad you feel low you feel used but that's what knowledge is you just don't care right now right now for you is to learn عبدالله العباس said I would tie my face I would sit in front of the house of a companion or somebody I'll travel to him the sand and the dust would come and it would cover me this is the prophet's cousin the messenger the prophet is now dead he could just say I'm already in a good I met the prophet but what he does is that he goes to another companion after the prophet's death and he wants to attain more knowledge more it's not enough for him but then what happened to ابن عباس later that hard work and the effort of these what did it bring about he became ابن عباس that's what he became that today you look at a book of تفسير you look at a book of حليث those people who his أقوال is معتمد he's relied upon صح all of that came with what as he said I was humiliated belittled look down at this person seeking knowledge and then when I attained it I became somebody respected then the author said ومن ما يعلل همتا ويسمو بالنفسي اعتباري ام اعتبارة حالة من سبق والتعرض وفهم من قوم one of the things that increases in aspiration ويسمو بهم نفس and a person's soul and نفس becomes high yeah you can if you can if you can read it the author says here وإن من ما يعلل همتا one of the things that increases in aspiration أحد أخذوا التفتلات yeah huh yeah okay وإن من ما يعلل همتا يفضل بيتا وإن من ما يعلل همتا ويسمو بالنفس اعتبارة حالة من سبق وتعرف هم من قوم الماضين فأبوع فابوع عبدالله أحمد بن حمبل كان هو في الصبا في الصبا في الصبا في الصبا ربما أراد الخروج قبل الفجر إلى حلاق الشيوخ فتأقذ أمه بثيابه وتقول رحمة به حتى يؤذن حتى يؤذن الناس أو يسبحوا اوثا رحمة الله سيتيا وإن من ما يعلل همتا وإن من ما يعلل الهمتا one of the things that increases in aspiration and makes the person's nefs go high shoot up is اعتبارة حالة من سبق is taken into consideration the situation of the one who proceeds those who came before you studying and learning the biography of the pious predecessors this is one of the things that increases your aspirations وتعرفهم القوم المعظين and learning and studying the aspiration of the previous generation how the aspiration was ونذلك the poet he said اقرأت تاريخ اد فيه العبر بل قوم ليس يدرون الخروج ليس يدرون الخبر the poet he said اقرأت تاريخ read history اقرأوا التاريخ read history اد فيه العبر because in it is what عبر means lessons there is lessons to take from history بل قوم misguided is a people ليس يدرون الخبر who don't know the news the information is in it and misguided وليدارك اتاريخ يقرأوا نفسها as they say history repeats itself right history what it repeats itself so what took place is going to happen again it keeps that's what's happening if you read history it's like you're looking at the world through a very thin veil it's not that you know the unseen it's because you read وليدارك او علما they say that the world يعرف الفتنة قبل وقعها he knows the fitna before it takes place the world the scholar he tells the people be careful oh people be careful this is this path which you guys are taking this road in which you guys are treading on is going to bring about destruction and torment be careful then it happens the people still don't realize it now that they're in it they only realize it once it's gone عامة الجهل they only know an issue on a problem after they want after it's turned it's back after it went it went and it's gone that's when they wake up and they say look we were in fitna that's when they wake up and they realize as for the علما they recognize it from very far now the author then gives you examples of the history of biographies of those who preceded us so you can now take from this something's going to increase you in aspiration he says فأبو عبد الله أحمد بن حنبل who أبو عبد الله he's his kunya his name is أحمد بن حنبل أرحم الله كان وهو في الصبع why else he was a child he was very young أحمد بن حنبل was a young boy young boy ربما أراد الخروجة he would want to leave قبل الفجري إلى حلق الشلوك to the gatherings of the scholars young boy ألمام أحمد wants to leave wants to leave before فجر before فجر he wants to leave and he wants to go to a circle in that circle what they are teaching knowledge he wants to sit there he wants to benefit he's pushing himself our youngsters what all night they were on facebook twitter instagram cool of duty playing the mother's fighting to wake him up for فجر she's telling him I have to pray after as soon as she leaves he puts himself some of them every day somehow they've got what do you have yeah when he wakes up from bed he jumps to prayer he goes back to bed she's away and some people take it very lightly when it comes to the issue of praying the salah without the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم told us a man a slave was commanded to be lashed 100 lashes in his grave one lash can fill his grave with fire so the slave he begs Allah oh Allah let's do it for me oh Allah 100 is too much so he gets taken to one for you ضربوا then he will be lashed that one lash فتملأ قبره his becomes filled with fire just from one lash and then when he gets lashed he asks فعلامة جل التموني why did you lash me for what was it the reason like it and then they tell him بغيد الطهارة you prayed a salah without what you prayed a salah without a الطهارة عذاب القبر comes from it praying a salah without a الطهارة deliberately is عذاب القبر you get punished in your grave so our youngsters that's what they're up to كان و هو في الصبع إمامو أحمد when he was young and childhood ربما أراد الخروجة he would want to leave قبل الفجر before Salat Al-Fajr إلى حلق الشيوخي and he would want to go to the circles حلق is the circle that's where he would want to go فتأخذ أمه his mother would take him she would grab him by the his clothes he wants to leave she grabs him she grabs him by his clothing و تقول رحمة به and she says to him out of mercy this is a mother mom's always worried is he going to get stabbed is he going to get hit is he going to get robbed is something going to happen to him mother's always worried parents are always worried his mom what happened she would say to him حتى يؤذين الناس أو يصبحوا until the adhan is made and it becomes morning don't leave it's too dark right now stay let it become a bit dark let it become white let it become daytime let the adhan go off stay a little bit don't go right now it's too dark it's midnight if anything can happen to you somebody might do something to you so this is how they were mom وقرى الخطيب صحيح البقاري صحيح البقاري كله على اسمع الحيري في ثلاثة مجالس إثنان منهما في ليلة من وقت صلاة المغرب إلى صلاة الفجر واليوم الثالث من ضحوة النهار إلى صلاة المغرب ومن المغرب إلى طلوع الفجر نادي أوثر رحمه الله he brings another example he brings a another example and this is الامام خطيب البقاري رحمه الله الامام خطيب البقاري رحمه الله رحمة واسعة he read وقراء الخطيب خطيب البقاري الامام الخطيب البقاري من علماء of carnal Khamas he was a fifth century and he died in year 436 he died the same year as الامام ابن عبد البر they both died the same year الامام ابن عبد البر was known as حافظ المغرب الامام خطيب البقاري was known as حافظ المشرق they both they both lived at the same time and they died at the same year وقرأ الخطيب و this type of recitation is called قراءة الجرد is it known as what? براءة الجرد براءة الجرد means what? we go we read صحيح البخاري all in one night all of it with its chains, with the medicine everything we read it it's called قراءة الجرد it's fast recitation and you read it in a group the reason is because that type of recitation it flows is when you try to read it alone sometimes you may become tired and sleepy and it's got a lot of benefits قراءة الجرد some people say what's the benefit if you're not memorizing it what's the benefit does it bring about? it does you familiarize yourself with you also learn that this حديث is in this particular book whenever you come across it you'll remember I read it one time here look at that benefit there's a book written by جمال الدين القاسم يقول قواعد التحديث جمال الدين القاسم يقول قواعد التحديث in that book it brings so much examples of scholars who have come with this type of doing are you with me brothers it brings examples of ابن حجر سخاوي talking about his teacher ابن حجر how he read مصنف ابن أبي شيبة مصنف عبد الرزاك مسند الطياليسي مسند إماب أحمد كبل of nights with the أساليدة this is called قراءة الجرد the aspiration was high so here he says وقرأ الخطيب خطيب البقدي you read صحيح البخاري صحيح البخاري you read صحيح البخاري كله أولبت أنه على اسماعيل الحيري he read it on اسماعيل الحيري اسماعيل الحيري رحمه الله pay attention here this is what's powerful a student we can understand if he wants to reach صحيح البخاري in one night or two nights it's understandable he's a student he's the one looking for something he has aspiration right but اسماعيل الحيري was old plus he lost he was blind كفا بصرفه he lost his eyesight and he would be in that sitting with خطيب البقدي and they would read together and it was a half of it memorized it it's gone so it would correct him if he says it wrong one of the benefits that he has one of the benefits that he has this kind of قراءة قراءة الجرد is also that the person would learn how to pronounce names properly of the روات and the narrators the teacher would correct him so he read all of صحيح البخاري all of it على اسماعيل الحيري في ثلاثة مجالس in three sets see three different sets اثناني منها في ليلة تيني two of those was one night اثناني منها في ليلة تيني sorry in two nights so two sets were in two different nights from what من وقت صلاة المغربي إلى صلاة الفجري from فجر sorry from مغرب to فجر from صلاة المغرب they sat down and they read until to فجر وليومي ثالثي the third night was what the third day was what so two nights that's how they did it two nights they did it from مغرب to فجر مغرب to فجر and the third one was من ضحوة النهاري إلى صلاة المغرب from صلاة الضحة until صلاة المغرب ومن المغربي إلى طور الفجر and then from مغرب to فجر that was the third set some scholars they tried to weaken the story such as محمد ابن أبي بكر الشيلي in his كتاب المشرع الروي he mentions this story incorrectly and he mentions that خطيب البغداني ready in five days and what is correct is that خطيب البغداني and he read بخاري twice one was the one he read to إسماعيل الحيلي which took three sets which is the one we just mentioned another one was he read it on كريمة المروزية this woman كريمة المروزية he read on her في خمسة أيام من أيام الحج five days of hajj he read on her she was a half متقلة of علم الحليف she had إجازات الروايات الصحة البغاري so he also read on her five days of hajj she would listen to her كريمة was her name المروزية that's the correct way to say it المروزية كريمة المروزية some people now may say this is impossible how can this be done is this even realistic إبنو بطولون رحمه الله who is from the علماء of قرن الخعشر the 10th century what he did was some people started to question can this even be possible can somebody even do this so as it's mentioned and he mentions
