Venue Albert Falls Summary Main Topic
Guidance on resolving marital conflicts constructively, prioritizing sincerity over outward eloquence, and striving for spiritual excellence (Taqwa and Azeemat ) rather than settling for mere permissibility.
Key Lessons
Divorce as a Last Resort: Talaq is the most abhorred of permissible actions in Islam; all avenues of communication, patience, discreet bed separation, and pious family mediation must be exhausted first.Protecting Children from Marital Strain: Spousal disputes must be dealt with maturely behind closed doors to protect innocent children from emotional distress and harmful behavior.Respecting Domain & Nafs vs. Deen: Husbands must differentiate between violations of Shariah and personal preferences/nafs, allowing wives reasonable autonomy in managing the home.Sincerity Over Eloquence: The example of Hazrat Musa (Alayhi Salaam) demonstrates that Allah values Ikhlas (sincerity) and heart rectification over outward eloquence or perfection.Aiming for Taqwa (Azeemat): Muslims, particularly scholars and students of Deen, should not baseline their lives on what is barely permissible (Ja'iz ), but strive for what is best (Azeemat ), simple, and pleasing to Allah.
Quranic/Hadith References
Surah Adh-Dhariyat (51:17-19): Description of the Muttaqeen who pray during the night, seek forgiveness at dawn (wa bil-ashari hum yastaghfirun ), and spend from their wealth for the needy.Story of Hazrat Musa (Alayhi Salaam): Mentioned most in the Quran as Kaleemullah despite his speech impediment, showing Allah's independence from human eloquence.Incident of Sayyidatina Ayesha (Radiyallahu Anha): Hazrat Barira (Radiyallahu Anha) noted how a goat ate dough left by Ayesha (Radiyallahu Anha), yet Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) remained patient.
Practical Advice
Address domestic conflicts privately without involving or burdening children.
Utilize the golden hours before dawn for Tahajjud, Istighfar, and Dua to strengthen one's relationship with Allah.
Adopt simplicity (Al-Badada min al-Iman ) in clothing and avoid extravagant, tight, or ostentatious attire.

0:05 Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. 0:13 Yesterday we had discussed with regards to balaq that it is the most abhorrable of all permissible things. 0:27 What does this mean? 0:30 That a person when he is 0:33 Faced with a problem in his marriage, then the first solution is not talaq. 0:42 Talaq is the last thing. 0:47 He must try everything else out first. 0:53 What's the demands of the wife? 0:58 She says, I've got this problem, that problem, that problem. 1:01 So see, 1:03 If those problems can be overcome, if there is a solution to it, then check if the marriage is working or not. 1:13 The husband has got certain things he doesn't like. 1:17 That's wanting him to issue the talaq. 1:21 So he must check that these things that I don't like, is it things of deen and shariat or my nafs? 1:29 Just that I don't prefer certain things, I don't like certain things. 1:33 He must analyze it. 1:36 Then he must communicate it to the wife. 1:40 Tara to make these changes. 1:43 Certain time frames need to be given. 1:47 Then all that fails. 1:52 He has tried, spoken to her. 1:55 The Taneem in the home. 1:57 Try to give some Hari Hamad. 1:59 Everything. 2:01 Nothing works. 2:03 Then he can reprimand her too. 2:08 Become a bit stern. 2:10 That too not working. 2:13 Then he is allowed to separate his bed from her. 2:18 But this separation what the Kuffar talk about, not talking about that kind of separation. 2:27 That means the husband, he take his thing, go on the floor. 2:30 He go on the bed. 2:35 Or if they've got two separate beds, then go on one bed, give her on one bed. 2:41 But the separation must be such that even the children don't know. 2:46 It mustn't cause turmoil in their minds. 2:51 Mia, Bibi are having a problem. 2:54 The casualties are the masoom children. 2:58 Getting married time, you want to get married, you want to make the children. 3:02 Now the first problems that take place 3:04 You haven't overcome those hurdles but you want to give Tara. 3:09 Now those bichara children, what happens to them? 3:14 Father is one side, mother is one side. 3:17 They go by their father's house, he wants to know, so what should we do? 3:24 He is talking negatively about their mother. 3:27 They go by their mother's house, what he did with you this weekend? 3:31 Eid time is a fight. 3:33 This Eid time is a fight. 3:38 Right. 3:44 So, it's not a nice thing what happens with the children. 3:49 And you speak to many asatis that they tell you how these children are affected. 3:56 Children from broken homes. 3:59 How they are affected. 4:02 A lot of these children sometimes they go off. 4:04 A lot of these children. 4:06 One child from one home. 4:09 The home was not broken, he said. 4:12 But a lot of fighting in the house. 4:14 Husband and wife. 4:15 Fighting, fighting. 4:17 Husband and wife have to have some akal. 4:19 If they got some problem, discuss it behind closed doors. 4:25 Make a big problem in the house in front of the children and all of that. 4:31 So, 4:33 That child came to me and he said that, you know, it was a small child, mocked up child. 4:41 He said, you know, I think I want to go and take drugs. 4:45 So I said, what are you talking? 4:51 Small child. 4:51 He said, you know, you know, my mother and father, they're only fighting in the house. 5:00 So I asked my one friend, you know, 5:02 Asma. 5:03 One friend in school said, you know, these people only fighting. 5:08 I don't know what I must do. 5:09 So my friend told me, no, you must take drugs. 5:13 You must take drugs. 5:14 Then your mind is somewhere else. 5:15 You won't worry about all the fighting. 5:20 So I called the parents. 5:23 I told them, do you know what's going through your child's mind? 5:30 So, 5:31 Husband and wife, we have to be mature enough to sort the problems out in an amicable manner. 5:41 So, if now, you know, he's tried everything, even separated his bed from her, still she is not listening. 5:51 Now, when you talk about not listening, what it means is, he's telling her, read namaz, she's not reading namaz. 5:57 He's telling her, don't talk to Namaharam men. 5:59 She's not listening. 6:00 Still talking. 6:01 Namaharam men. 6:03 He's telling her, you don't watch movies. 6:04 She's watching movies. 6:07 Not... You see, the towel must hang it like this. 6:13 Not like that. 6:15 Now she's hanging it like that. 6:16 Not like this. 6:17 So now you say, no, I'm going to get divorced now. 6:19 I'm not compatible with this woman. 6:23 A woman, she is her own person. 6:27 Right? 6:27 She will do things how she likes to do things. 6:31 You can't expect her to do everything how you like her to do. 6:37 You want to enter her domain, the house, and tell her how to run the house. 6:43 Then you should have been the husband and the wife. 6:46 There was one couple. 6:50 They were having a lot of problems. 6:53 Initially they were fine. 6:54 There were no problems they had. 6:57 After that they started having lot of problem in the marriage. 7:00 So I was thinking now what happened here now? 7:03 So what happened? 7:05 The husband started working from home. 7:08 See. 7:09 He started working from home. 7:11 Now the problem started. 7:13 So I told him, I said, see by what you do, you get yourself an office. 7:19 In the morning you leave and go to work. 7:23 The problem is now, you're starting to tell her how to run the house now. 7:30 It's just going to become a problem. 7:33 See, when the slander was taking place against Maisha radiallahu anha. 7:43 So Nabi sallallahu alayhi wasallam called Hazrat Barira radiallahu anha because she was 7:53 Assistant of Masha. 7:57 What's your opinion of all these rumours now that people are talking? 8:04 So she said, can never be. 8:08 I'm just telling you in my words, not her exact words. 8:12 She said, you see, Masha is young. 8:18 So sometime, maybe forgetfully, she may need the dough, right? 8:26 And then she doesn't go ahead and make the bread. 8:30 The goat may come and eat up the dough. 8:33 Now, by in a house where it's so hard for food to come by. 8:43 Now, what a thing that is. 8:45 That now you needed the dough. 8:48 And you never make the bread. 8:50 And now the goat came and ate up the dough. 8:56 But Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wasallam didn't get upset. 9:01 Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wasallam didn't get upset. 9:05 He didn't go start shouting enough for them. 9:08 I told you, you're wasting now. 9:10 Why are you wasting? 9:14 You can't run a house like that. 9:17 A wife is a wife. 9:18 She is her own person. 9:20 She got her own mind. 9:21 She got her own heart. 9:23 She got her own way of thinking. 9:26 You have to allow that. 9:28 If you want the ship to sail smoothly, you have to allow that. 9:32 Yes. 9:33 Where now she is now compromising deen? 9:38 Right? 9:40 Now the husband needs to sit. 9:42 He needs to step in. 9:43 Why? 9:44 Because he is the shepherd of the home. 9:47 Right? 9:48 He is answerable for her. 9:49 He is responsible for her. 9:52 But now, she got a certain way of cooking. 9:55 You know, a man sometimes, if he is doing something, he is very systematic. 10:04 He is systematic. 10:05 He does thing in a systematic way. 10:08 A lady, lot of ladies, if you observe them cooking, they got ten bottles open there. 10:17 Right? 10:19 Now you think to yourself, you needed that masala, you put that. 10:23 Now why don't you close that bottle and put it away? 10:27 That's how you would do it. 10:29 That's not how she does it. 10:31 Now why are you getting irritated about that? 10:34 Let her do it how she does it. 10:36 She is cooking them. 10:37 If you got a problem, then give her off and you cook them. 10:42 Understand? 10:43 So, the home is her kingdom. 10:47 She is the queen of that palace. 10:50 How she wants to put the lounge, what she wants to do here, what she wants to do in the room, if she feels she wants to spend a little bit money on this, as long as she's not going overboard. 11:03 Allow all of that. 11:05 You can't be in control. 11:09 You have to leave things. 11:13 If now she's not, she's allowing the children to watch YouTube videos. 11:20 She's allowing the daughter, big daughter now, to talk to the neighbor's son. 11:26 Now the husband needs to step in. 11:28 It's Allah's hukam. 11:32 She is now not being conscious about her parda. 11:36 Now he needs to step in. 11:37 Sorry. 11:41 Other things. 11:42 Small, small things. 11:43 It can be done that way. 11:44 It can be done this way. 11:45 Why? 11:46 As long as it gets done. 11:47 Chalte ka naam ghaari. 11:48 Why are you worried about these things? 11:51 In general, you won't have to do it and she won't have to do it. 11:54 So, why don't you make a big story about it? 11:58 But sometimes there are certain big issues in a marriage. 12:05 So now, 12:06 You've tried everything, you've separated your bed, you did everything, nothing working out. 12:13 So now you go to call one senior person from her family, unbiased, little muttaki, knowledgeable person. 12:24 Call one person from your family and now let them sit and listen to you all and give you all advice. 12:31 Hmm? 12:33 Then whatever solutions are given there, whatever advices are given, carry it out and see now if this makes the marriage work. 12:46 Now until a person hasn't done all of that, how can he even think about divorce? 12:54 Can't think about divorce. 12:56 He needs to do all these things, follow all these steps and procedures. 13:01 Hmm? 13:02 After doing all of that, and now it is seen that, look, we've tried everything now. 13:11 She says she wasn't happy about this, so we changed it. 13:16 She wanted something like that. 13:18 We did that. 13:19 I told her what I want. 13:21 But the two of us, we are just not making it. 13:24 We are just not compatible. 13:26 It's just not working out. 13:28 So then you part ways in a nice way. 13:32 Partly is nicely. 13:35 Sometimes the one who is on the receiving end, we only feel it when we are on the receiving end. 13:47 We feel it when we are... 13:49 The time the wife is telling you something, then you feel it. 13:53 But the time when you are doing something, you don't feel it. 13:57 The hurt you cause, you don't feel. 13:58 The hurt you collect, that hurts you so much. 14:02 You get so hurt. 14:03 But we think now, what would I do? 14:07 That I don't think about, what would I do? 14:11 So, talaq will be the last thing a person must try and try and try until now even the elders tell him, you know what, but 14:23 You have tried everything now. 14:25 Now you are wasting your time, you know. 14:27 You can't carry on like this. 14:29 Rather you just part ways nicely. 14:33 So it mustn't be a first thing. 14:36 That was one thing. 14:38 The other thing Let's see which Nabi of Allah Ta'ala is spoken about the most in the Quran Sharif. 14:56 Mentioned the most in the Quran Sharif. 14:58 Which Nabi of Allah Ta'ala. 15:01 Nabi Musa alayhi salam. 15:04 And Nabi Musa alayhi salam. 15:09 He was sent to. 15:12 He was sent to. 15:14 Firon. 15:15 That. 15:16 Who was one of the most, you know, the person, he was so wealthy, such health Allah had given him, such wealth Allah Ta'ala had given him, such kingdom Allah Ta'ala, everything Allah gave him. 15:30 Powerful person. 15:34 Allah Ta'ala is sending Nabi Musa alayhi salam to go and address Fir'aun. 15:39 Then, what 15:46 Virtue Musa Alayhi Salaam had is he was Kaleemullah. 15:51 He's the only Nabi of Allah Ta'ala who used to speak directly to Allah Ta'ala. 15:58 Kaleemullah. 15:58 Allah Ta'ala spoke directly to him. 16:01 He spoke directly to Allah Ta'ala. 16:06 But Musa Alayhi Salaam had stuttering problem. 16:11 Hmm? 16:13 When Allah Ta'ala told Musa alayhi salam to go to Fir'aun. 16:21 He said, Open the knot in my tongue. 16:27 At least they can understand my words. 16:31 They sent my brother with me. 16:35 What Fir'aun said about Musa alayhi salam to his people. 16:39 Am ana khairum. 16:42 Min hadhal ladhi huwa maheen. 16:45 Wala yakadu yubeen. 16:48 And you see, dunyavi minded person, he said, must go to dunya. 16:51 Falo la ulkiya alayhi aswiratun lindah. 16:55 Why he haven't got bangles of gold? 16:58 If he is a Nabi of Allah, why he don't have all this wealth and everything? 17:02 They look at everything from a worldly perspective. 17:05 But what he said, wala yakadu yubeen. 17:08 He was referring to Musa alayhi salam's speech. 17:12 Right? 17:14 So this teaches us Allah Ta'ala is independent. 17:23 To go and address Fir'aun. 17:29 Now you'll think Allah Ta'ala will choose one person who's so eloquent now. 17:33 Go in the court of Fir'aun. 17:36 But Allah Ta'ala chooses a Nabi of his who got a stuttering problem. 17:43 For that one who is Kareemullah. 17:45 Now you see, you're talking to Allah Paak now, you know. 17:50 What kind speech you must have. 17:54 Allah Ta'ala chose that Nabi of His who had a stuttering problem. 17:59 And then that Nabi of His is spoken about the most. 18:05 See, sometimes, 18:10 When we are told to give some Jummah bayan or some program or something. 18:16 Now our fikr is in the preparation. 18:20 I'm not saying mustn't prepare. 18:21 Must prepare also. 18:23 But our so much fikr is in the preparation. 18:26 Which I am choosing. 18:28 Which incidents. 18:29 I must quote this Arabic about it here. 18:32 And I must give this like that. 18:34 And I'm going to sing that like this. 18:37 Whole week the man is preparing. 18:40 But how much effort did I make on my heart? 18:44 How much effort did I make on my heart? 18:48 Allah Ta'ala doesn't need eloquence. 18:51 Allah Ta'ala doesn't need eloquence for the deen of Allah to spread. 18:57 For Allah to give hidayat, Allah don't need eloquence. 19:00 Allah Ta'ala used Musa alayhi salam for the scattering problem. 19:04 He is Kareemullah. 19:06 He is going to address Fir'aun and his people. 19:13 Allah Ta'ala give us ikhlas. 19:16 Bless us with ikhlas. 19:19 Then, today we read in the last page, Allah Ta'ala speaks about the Muttaqeen. 19:29 They will be in Jannat, etc. 19:30 Aakhidheen maa ataahum rabbuhum. 19:36 Allah Ta'ala gives the sifat. 19:39 Kaanu qaleedam minal layli maa yahjaoon. 19:43 So the nights, especially people who are in khidmat of deen, studying deen, etc. 19:52 Some portion of that night must be given to ibadat. 20:00 Different types of ibadat. 20:04 As a student, then most of your time must be with your kitabs. 20:10 That too is Ibadah. 20:12 But little bit time must also be given for talking to Allah Ta'ala. 20:19 Building our relationship with Allah Ta'ala. 20:22 Fa'idha faraghta fan sab wa idha rabbika farghab. 20:27 Some time must be given for that also. 20:31 And wa bil-asharihum yastaghfirun. 20:36 In the golden hour, hunters also have golden hours. 20:42 You go hunting, so a good hunter will tell you, the hour after sunrise and the hour before sunset, you must be in the bush. 20:53 The rest of the day, if you're not in the bush, it's alright. 20:55 But those two hours you must be in the golden hours. 20:59 If you really want to find the animal you're looking for, then that's the two hours you must be in the bush. 21:05 That is for hunting. 21:08 A person really wants to build his ta'luq ma'Allah wa bil-asharihum yastaghfirun. 21:15 The golden hour. 21:17 The last hour of the night. 21:18 The last sixth portion of the night. 21:20 A person must take out some time and make dua to Allah Ta'ala. 21:25 Cry to Allah Ta'ala. 21:27 And then wa fi amwalihim haqqum ma'alum li's-sa'idhi wa'l-mahrum 21:34 That from our wealth also, we must spend. 21:38 Take out from our wealth also. 21:40 Each person, Allah is not saying, you must give so much from your wealth. 21:46 When it comes to nafaka also, Allah doesn't stipulate that you have to give so much. 21:52 According to each person's, what each person can manage accordingly. 22:00 So when it comes to spending in Allah's path also, 22:04 Whatever each person can manage. 22:07 But must spend, even if it's little bit, must spend something from our wealth. 22:15 Whatever wealth we have. 22:17 Take out little bit from there and spend. 22:21 So Allah Ta'ala give us tawfiq, no? 22:24 We can bring this sifat into our lives. 22:29 And then one friend of mine, other day I spoke about Ritob. 22:32 I got nothing against Ritob. 22:34 I just used the name Ritob. 22:37 So that friend of mine is telling me that, no, Maana, some Ritob, Ritob Kurta is same like a, same price as a two-piece. 22:52 You know normal kurta like this if you have to sew how much it will cost you and you buy a retaube. 22:59 Same thing. 23:00 Same price. 23:01 So he's giving me the mathematics. 23:06 So I won't say it's same price. 23:08 That whether it's a retaube or whatever different different brands it's more expensive. 23:19 Because even if you say that 23:22 To sew the kurta. 23:23 By the time you buy the fabric and you give it to the tailor to sew. 23:28 But you get kurta, ijar, and topi. 23:32 You get kurta, ijar, and topi. 23:35 You go buy that kurta, whether it's Emirati one, or whether it is Zakhrafat, or whether it is Shiaqa, or Dafa, or Asir, or whoever. 23:51 You only get the kurta. 23:53 That's all. 23:54 Nothing else. 23:56 So the price you're paying is only for the kurta. 23:58 And the price already is more than what you'll pay if you have to sew. 24:03 But that's not the point. 24:06 That's not the point about how much you're paying for the kurta and all of that. 24:10 Yes, those, they are some kurtas are very expensive on the market. 24:16 Because now it's a new style. 24:17 It just came out now and they got some work on it and all that stuff. 24:21 So that is not appropriate to spend so much of money just to buy one kurta. 24:26 You rather buy three cheaper kurtas. 24:28 Give two. 24:29 If you only need one, give two to somebody who needs. 24:32 Instead of paying so much money. 24:35 But if Allah Ta'ala has blessed a person with the wealth and he bought that kurta, then no problem. 24:43 Allah Ta'ala also wants to see the effect of his bounties on his bandha. 24:48 Right? 24:51 So the point is not about the name of the kurta or the whether it's a long kurta or a short kurta. 25:01 The point is what type of a kurta. 25:05 What type of a kurta is it? 25:08 So is that kurta appropriate for an alim to be wearing? 25:14 That's the question you have to ask yourself. 25:17 Not all these. 25:18 Not the rest of it. 25:20 This kurta, is it appropriate? 25:24 Does it fit the description of a kurta? 25:29 See, there was one person. 25:30 He was from Tunisia. 25:32 He is marhum now. 25:33 Allah Ta'ala put his cover with nur. 25:36 So, he was very modern. 25:44 And somehow, somebody told him about Hazratji Rahmatullah Ali and so he ended up going to Jananabad. 25:55 He went to Jananabad. 25:57 So he was a clean-shaven person and he used to smoke milk special. 26:05 So he went to the khanqa and he was still smoking and he was like that with... 26:13 He managed to obtain few kurtas. 26:15 He was wearing kurta because he is in the khan ka na. 26:17 If you are not wearing kurta in the khan ka na, you stick out like a sotam. 26:22 So he is wearing the kurta. 26:24 But now he was clean shaven and he was smoking and Haji never told him anything. 26:29 Because the man now first time he is coming and Haji didn't tell him anything. 26:36 So after he returned 26:39 He returned. 26:41 He came back to South Africa. 26:43 So he had a dream. 26:45 He's dreaming Hazarji Rahmatullahi. 26:49 Hazarji Rahmatullahi got no beard and he's smoking mills. 26:58 Now he got very worried now. 27:03 So he wrote to Hazarji Rahmatullahi. 27:06 You know this is a dream I saw. 27:10 So Haji replied to me, if you were comfortable in seeing me like that, then you carry on how you are. 27:22 But if you never like what you saw, then I too don't like what I see. 27:29 So he changed his life. 27:32 He gave up his cigarette and all, you know. 27:36 So this is what we must do in our life. 27:39 When things come out and this. 27:41 You must ask yourself now. 27:45 Will Mukti Ibrahim Sarji Sahib wear this? 27:52 Will Muhammad Hamid Sahib wear this? 27:55 Will Mona Ijaz Patel Sahib wear this? 27:57 Will Mona Magda Sahib wear this? 28:00 Will Kari Ismail Sahib wear this? 28:03 If the answer is no, then it's not appropriate for me. 28:08 It's not appropriate for me. 28:11 Right? 28:13 You must remember something. 28:18 The ulama, whatever they adopt, 28:27 The general community will always adopt a few rungs lower than that. 28:35 Because the general... 28:41 So, they will always adopt a few rungs lower than that. 28:46 So, a person who is a student of deen and alim of deen, 28:53 He has a duty upon himself to carry himself in a certain way for the pleasure of Allah Ta'ala. 29:00 Because he becomes a hujjat. 29:03 He is a muqtada. 29:05 He becomes a hujjat. 29:08 It is a duty on him. 29:12 He has to be extra careful. 29:15 So, we must keep this thing in mind, you know. 29:22 Does do those those outfits is it in keeping with simplicity? 29:30 Al-Badada min al-Iman. 29:34 The hallmark of Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam's dressing was simplicity. 29:38 That was the hallmark. 29:40 So now that dressing is it in keeping with simplicity? 29:45 That's what we have to ask ourselves. 29:47 What is it resembling more? 29:50 Is it resembling more the Dibas of Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the Sahaba r.a? 29:57 Or is it now resembling more the Dibas of the Kuffar? 30:03 Where is it going? 30:04 Which side is it going? 30:05 More towards that side? 30:07 More towards this side? 30:09 Now see, if you take this Qur'an here, and if I put a Nike sign on it, would it suit? 30:19 Even Munna. 30:22 Can't do that. 30:25 If I go put one Mercedes emblem, BMW emblem, it won't suit. 30:31 Because it doesn't fit. 30:33 It's oil and water, you know. 30:36 They can't gel. 30:38 But now you take those ones, you put Adidas stripes on it, it suits. 30:47 Because it's more in line with that. 30:50 So it can mix. 30:51 You take the Nike sign and put on it. 30:54 It's smart. 30:56 Or put the Mercedes emblem. 30:57 Put the BMW emblem. 30:58 Whatever you want to do with it. 31:00 Because it's in keeping with that dressing. 31:04 So you're going closer and closer in that direction. 31:11 You're not going closer and closer to the direction of Nabi Salman. 31:16 That is the point. 31:18 Now see, these people, some people now, they're going, they're showing the kurta, like how the bodybuilders, you know, bodybuilders, they wear muscle tops. 31:33 So now, all of us too are going like that, no? 31:37 They too, jimming too. 31:39 And now they're going to show the kurtas now. 31:41 Tight, tight, everything, everything must show and all. 31:46 What clothing is that? 31:48 Navi Sahasram spoke about the women. 31:50 Kasiyaatun aariyaat. 31:52 Today the men too are gone like that. 31:57 Kasi and aari. 32:00 They too dressing like in that manner. 32:05 So this is where the problem comes in. 32:08 So a student of deen, alim of deen, 32:12 Person connected to being. 32:14 He mustn't look at what is permissible. 32:17 You know, some say jai. 32:22 That's not our... We must look at what is taqwa. 32:32 This jai is. 32:35 Something being jai is. 32:37 For all of us, not only for onamal, something being ja'iz, it don't mean you must do it. 32:49 Something being ja'iz doesn't mean you must do it. 32:53 Something being on the level of ja'iz means that if you are forced and you have to do it, there's no guna on you. 33:02 That's the definition. 33:05 Jais. 33:06 Something that is just Jais. 33:07 Just on the level of Jais. 33:10 There is Jawas for it. 33:12 What it means is if you are forced into a situation and you did it, there is no guna on you. 33:19 But that don't mean you must bring your whole deen on that level. 33:25 You have to always be looking at what is of Azeemat. 33:29 What is of Taqwa. 33:30 What is the better thing. 33:33 If that was not the case, then why is it that in one two rakat of namaz, between the ahnaf and the shawafi and the malikiya and the hanabira, there's so many ikhtirafat. 33:49 This is ola? 33:52 This is more absurd? 33:55 So much of bahas on something that just which is ola to read amin jahran or sirran? 34:05 Because I must bring my deen to a level. 34:36 That I must be doing everything that is abdal. 34:39 Everything that is awla. 34:43 Not just what is jais. 34:45 If it was that everybody must just do what is jais, you would have had maybe one twentieth or one fiftieth of the fiqh kitabs. 34:57 So they are showing us in those ikhtirafat, you see, you must take pains. 35:04 You must take pains 35:06 To bring your deen to the best quality that you can bring it. 35:11 Not just something that just chalega. 35:15 Chalte ka naam gari. 35:16 Chalega is your past. 35:20 Eating time. 35:20 A person eating time. 35:25 He wants to have an ice cream, you know. 35:29 So he can go in the what you call bin daud and they got one ice cream there in the fridge and buy it and carry on. 35:40 He can go in the Baqarah there around the corner from his hotel and they got one ice cream there, buy it and carry on. 35:48 But no, no, no. 35:49 He needs to walk three blocks down because they got a Baskin and Robbins there. 35:56 And now even that's not good enough. 35:59 He needs to phone his friend in Madinah Manwara because there's a Bardisi way he's staying. 36:04 So I want that ice cream. 36:06 Because that's the best. 36:08 Everybody said you must eat that. 36:13 Today he wants the best. 36:15 But in his deen, this will work. 36:19 This will work. 36:20 It will work. 36:21 No. 36:23 He mustn't have that attitude. 36:25 We must look for what is the best. 36:28 Then still we'll have our mistakes. 36:31 Still we'll have our shortfalls. 36:33 But we try. 36:35 Try. 36:35 In whichever department we can, try. 36:39 Keep trying to improve. 36:41 Trying to check what's the better thing. 36:44 Okay, I was doing that. 36:45 But what's the better thing to do? 36:47 Let me try and come on to what is better. 36:50 So we keep improving ourselves. 36:53 But if we just become complacent 36:57 There is Jawas for this. 36:58 There is Jawas for that. 36:59 There is Jawas for that. 37:02 Then, what's going to be our situation? 37:07 We can't be like that. 37:08 We can't just take everything in which there is Jawas and make that our lifestyle. 37:15 Yes, now you're in a push. 37:18 You're in a problem for something and it is to do a certain thing. 37:25 You're pushed in a corner 37:27 Alright. 37:27 There is Javas for it. 37:29 Today we will do that. 37:31 We will act on that. 37:32 But when we got ideal conditions, we are not going to practice on that. 37:41 Take an example. 37:44 You are on aeroplane. 37:48 It's Salah time. 37:52 They are not allowing you to move from your seat. 37:57 Right? 37:58 Aeroplane is not facing Qibla. 38:02 It's going in another direction. 38:04 Not facing Qibla too. 38:07 And they're not allowing you to wake up from your sleep. 38:09 Maybe there's turbulence or that's their policy that you can't, they don't, they don't want you to go in the aisle and read your namaz or whatever. 38:19 So in a situation like that, what you going to do now? 38:25 So it will be permissible for you 38:27 You sit in your seat and you read your namaz. 38:32 Later on, when you reach your destination, then the better thing is to repeat the Salah. 38:39 But it will be jais for you. 38:41 You're sitting there in your seat. 38:42 You know you're not facing Qibla. 38:45 You know you've got no uzar to sit. 38:48 But in that circumstance now, you'll practice on that Jawas. 38:56 But tomorrow when you are at home, are you going to practice on that jawas? 39:01 You can't practice on that jawas. 39:03 Right? 39:05 So we must treat it like that. 39:09 Not the whole ummah. 39:11 A person who is student of deen, he must treat it like that. 39:15 That jawas he must look like that. 39:17 In a situation... 39:21 I make use of it. 39:23 It's not sinful. 39:25 But in normal conditions, normal situations, I must make amal on, try to make amal on what is the best. 39:36 I gave you that other example the other day. 39:39 The person is making imam. 39:42 Now, he's jais. 39:43 If you don't read the Surah Al-Fatiha in the third rakat, fourth rakat, he's jais. 39:48 But is that the better thing to do? 39:51 It's not a better thing to do. 39:53 Read the Surah Al-Fatiha. 39:54 Why is it must-known? 39:56 Read it. 39:57 It's must-known for a reason. 39:58 So read it. 40:01 Now, there is a situation. 40:05 Some problem. 40:08 You made a mistake in the namaz. 40:11 You're performing Zuhr namaz. 40:13 You made a mistake. 40:14 You read five rakat. 40:15 You read three rakat. 40:17 Whatever. 40:18 And now the namaz needs to be repeated. 40:22 Now already, the businessmen are already upset because they need to open their shop. 40:29 The mutawalli, he's already fume coming out from his ears and nose and everything. 40:35 So now, now you need a quick namaz, you know. 40:40 The second jamaat you're making. 40:41 Make it 50. 40:42 Somebody may have had one appointment. 40:44 Somebody got some commitment. 40:45 Whatever. 40:46 Right? 40:47 Somebody may be musafir. 40:48 Now you made a mistake. 40:50 Now you have to repeat the namaz. 40:52 Now in that situation, read the shortest of surahs. 40:56 In the third rakat, fourth rakat, just stand for your three subhanallahs and carry on. 41:01 So there it will be fine. 41:02 But normally you're making the imamat, then why are you giving out the sunnat? 41:05 So you know it's jais. 41:09 Hmm? 41:10 So, we must try, you know. 41:13 Try as much as possible. 41:16 Try as much as possible to keep improving ourselves. 41:21 Don't keep looking at what is just jai's. 41:23 No. 41:24 Look at what is best. 41:26 And try to come on to that. 41:29 Allah Ta'ala give me Taufiq. 41:31 Allah give you Taufiq. 41:33 Allah grant you entire ummatu. 41:38 Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. 41:40 Allahumma salli ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala alihi Sayyidina Muhammad wa barik wa sallim. 41:48 Allahumma laka alhamdu kulluh wa laka alshukru kulluh. 41:52 Allahumma Rabbana faqfir lana dhunubana wa kaffir anna sayyi'atina wa tawaffana ma'al abrar. 41:59 Rabbana atina fi al-dunya hasana wa fi al-akhirati hasana wa kina azhaban naab. 42:07 Allahumma inna nas'aluka as-sihah wa al-'iffah wa al-'amana wa husna al-khulq wa al-ridha bil-qadr. 42:15 Allahumma wafiqna lima tuhibbu wa tarbaa min al-fi'ni wa al-qawli wa al-niyyati wa al-huda. 42:21 Innaka ala kulli shayin qadir. 42:24 Allahumma nsul al-Islam wa ansara wa adil al-shirka wa ashrara. 42:29 Allahumma shfi marbana wa marba al-muslimin. 42:33 Allahumma arham mawtana wa mawta al-muslimin. 42:37 Jazallahu anna nabiyana muhammadan. 42:40 Sallallahu alayhi wasallam. 42:42 Bima huwa ahluh. 42:43 Bi rahmatika ya rahmatul raheem. 42:46 Alhamdulillah.
Evaluate personal choices based on spiritual excellence (Azeemat ) rather than relying on minimum permissibility. 1:07:41
