00:00:00.780 --> 00:00:09.779
*Riyadh al-Salihin* (The Meadows of the Righteous) from the words of the Master of the Messengers, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

00:00:09.779 --> 00:00:16.460
Chapter on Hope (al-Raja').

00:00:16.460 --> 00:00:20.460
On the authority of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

00:00:20.460 --> 00:00:24.960
Some captives were brought before the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:28.460
and among them was a woman searching frantically.

00:00:28.460 --> 00:00:30.960
When she found an infant among the captives,

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:34.960
she took it, pressed it to her belly, and nursed it.

00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:39.049
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) then asked,

00:00:39.049 --> 00:00:44.049
"Do you think this woman would throw her child into the fire?"

00:00:44.049 --> 00:00:47.049
We replied, "No, by Allah!"

00:00:47.049 --> 00:00:53.119
He said, "Allah is certainly more merciful to His servants than this woman is to her child."

00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:56.240
Agreed upon.

00:00:56.240 --> 00:01:00.170
"Al-Saby" refers to captives of war.

00:01:00.170 --> 00:01:04.459
"Tas'a" means she was rushing and running around.

00:01:04.459 --> 00:01:07.459
"A-tarawna" means: Do you think?

00:01:07.459 --> 00:01:11.579
Key lessons from the hadith:

00:01:11.579 --> 00:01:14.579
The vast mercy of Allah Almighty toward His servants,

00:01:14.579 --> 00:01:16.579
that He wills good for them,

00:01:16.579 --> 00:01:18.579
and desires to rescue them from the Fire;

00:01:18.579 --> 00:01:23.579
thus He opened for them the door of repentance, hope, and turning back to Him in devotion.

00:01:23.579 --> 00:01:27.090
Drawing lessons from real-life incidents,

00:01:27.090 --> 00:01:31.090
and using them for guidance and instruction by striking parables,

00:01:31.090 --> 00:01:35.090
so that comprehensive understanding may be achieved in the most perfect manner.

00:01:35.090 --> 00:01:42.480
A person should anchor their reliance in all states and times to Allah alone,

00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.480
and the wise person should direct all their needs to Him.

00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:50.849
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

00:01:50.849 --> 00:01:54.849
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:01:54.849 --> 00:01:57.849
"When Allah created the creation,

00:01:57.849 --> 00:01:59.849
He inscribed in a Book,

00:01:59.849 --> 00:02:02.849
which is with Him above the Throne:

00:02:02.849 --> 00:02:05.849
'Verily, My mercy overcomes My wrath.'"

00:02:05.849 --> 00:02:08.009
In another narration:

00:02:08.009 --> 00:02:10.009
"'...has overcome My wrath.'"

00:02:10.009 --> 00:02:12.009
And in yet another narration:

00:02:12.009 --> 00:02:14.009
"'...has preceded My wrath.'"

00:02:14.009 --> 00:02:16.009
Agreed upon.

00:02:16.009 --> 00:02:20.069
Key lessons from the hadith:

00:02:20.069 --> 00:02:24.069
Proof of the transcendence and highness ('Uluww) of Allah Almighty above His creation,

00:02:24.069 --> 00:02:28.610
and that He is above His Throne, distinct and separate from His creation.

00:02:28.610 --> 00:02:31.610
Affirmation of the attributes of Mercy and Wrath for Allah,

00:02:31.610 --> 00:02:36.610
which must not be allegorically reinterpreted as merely the intent to reward and punish,

00:02:36.610 --> 00:02:43.030
as that opposes the methodology of the righteous salaf (early generations), may Allah be pleased with them.

00:02:43.030 --> 00:02:46.030
The mercy of Allah encompasses all of His servants,

00:02:46.030 --> 00:02:51.400
and His mercy has preceded His wrath.

00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:54.400
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:59.400
I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, say:

00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:02.469
"Allah made mercy into one hundred parts.

00:03:02.469 --> 00:03:05.469
He retained ninety-nine parts with Himself,

00:03:05.469 --> 00:03:08.469
and sent down one single part to the earth.

00:03:08.469 --> 00:03:12.469
It is from that single part that all creatures show mercy to one another,

00:03:12.469 --> 00:03:16.469
so much so that an animal lifts its hoof away from its offspring,

00:03:16.469 --> 00:03:18.469
fearing that it might harm it."

00:03:18.469 --> 00:03:20.599
In another narration:

00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:23.599
"Verily, Allah Almighty has one hundred mercies.

00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.599
He sent down one mercy from them

00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:28.599
among the jinn, mankind,

00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:30.599
beasts, and crawling creatures.

00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:34.599
By virtue of it they show affection and show mercy to one another,

00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:38.599
and by it a wild beast shows compassion to its young.

00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:41.599
And Allah has deferred ninety-nine mercies,

00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:45.599
with which He will show mercy to His servants on the Day of Resurrection."

00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:47.819
Agreed upon.

00:03:47.819 --> 00:03:53.919
Muslim also narrated it from Salman al-Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him),

00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:54.919
who said:

00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:58.919
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:01.919
"Verily, Allah Almighty has one hundred mercies.

00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:05.919
From them is one mercy by which the creation shows mutual mercy among themselves,

00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:09.919
and ninety-nine are reserved for the Day of Resurrection."

00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:11.979
In another narration:

00:04:11.979 --> 00:04:16.980
"Verily, on the day Allah Almighty created the heavens and the earth, He created

00:04:16.980 --> 00:04:17.980
one hundred mercies,

00:04:17.980 --> 00:04:22.980
each mercy spanning what is between the heavens and the earth.

00:04:22.980 --> 00:04:26.170
From them, He placed one mercy on the earth,

00:04:26.170 --> 00:04:29.170
by which a mother shows compassion to her child,

00:04:29.170 --> 00:04:33.170
and wild beasts and birds show compassion to one another.

00:04:33.170 --> 00:04:39.360
Then, when the Day of Resurrection comes, He will complete them with this mercy."

00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:43.959
"Hafiraha" refers to its foot;

00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.959
a horse's hoof is like a cow's cloven hoof.

00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:51.319
"Al-Baha'im" is the plural of "bahimah" (beast),

00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:54.319
referring to four-legged animals;

00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:59.319
they were called such due to their lack of speech and unintelligibility.

00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:02.889
"Al-Hawamm" refers to crawling creatures and vermin.

00:05:02.889 --> 00:05:05.920
"Tibaq" means covering or spanning,

00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:12.920
meaning that it fills the entire expanse between heaven and earth due to its vastness and grandeur.

00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:16.720
Key lessons from the hadith:

00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:19.850
The mercy that Allah has placed in the hearts of His servants

00:05:20.850 --> 00:05:22.850
is part of His creation,

00:05:22.850 --> 00:05:26.850
and the good He has sent down to them is from His grace.

00:05:26.850 --> 00:05:34.329
All of this is merely a fraction of what Allah Almighty has stored up for His believing servants on the Day of Resurrection.

00:05:34.329 --> 00:05:39.329
In this hadith is the greatest hope and glad tidings for the believers:

00:05:39.329 --> 00:05:45.329
for if they receive, through a single mercy created for them in this world,

00:05:45.329 --> 00:05:49.329
all this mutual compassion and immense goodness,

00:05:49.329 --> 00:05:53.329
then how magnificent will it be with one hundred mercies on the Day of Resurrection!

00:05:53.329 --> 00:05:57.740
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him),

00:05:57.740 --> 00:06:00.740
from the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:06:00.740 --> 00:06:04.740
narrating from his Lord, the Blessed and Exalted,

00:06:04.740 --> 00:06:08.740
that He said: "A servant committed a sin,

00:06:08.740 --> 00:06:12.740
and said: 'O Allah, forgive me my sin.'

00:06:12.740 --> 00:06:15.740
Whereupon Allah, Blessed and Exalted, said:

00:06:15.740 --> 00:06:18.740
'My servant committed a sin

00:06:19.740 --> 00:06:25.839
and knew that he has a Lord Who forgives sin and takes to account for sin.'

00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:27.839
Then he committed a sin again,

00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:31.839
and said: 'O Lord, forgive me my sin.'

00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:34.839
Whereupon Allah, Blessed and Exalted, said:

00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:37.839
'My servant committed a sin

00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:42.839
and knew that he has a Lord Who forgives sin and takes to account for sin.'

00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:44.930
Then he committed a sin again,

00:06:44.930 --> 00:06:48.930
and said: 'O Lord, forgive me my sin.'

00:06:48.930 --> 00:06:51.930
Whereupon Allah, Blessed and Exalted, said:

00:06:51.930 --> 00:06:54.930
'My servant committed a sin

00:06:54.930 --> 00:06:59.930
and knew that he has a Lord Who forgives sin and takes to account for sin.

00:06:59.930 --> 00:07:01.930
I have forgiven My servant,

00:07:01.930 --> 00:07:04.930
so let him do as he wills.'"

00:07:04.930 --> 00:07:07.060
Agreed upon.

00:07:07.060 --> 00:07:09.220
His saying, the Exalted:

00:07:09.220 --> 00:07:11.220
"So let him do as he wills,"

00:07:11.220 --> 00:07:14.220
means: as long as he continues to do so—

00:07:14.220 --> 00:07:16.220
committing a sin and then repenting—

00:07:16.220 --> 00:07:17.220
I will forgive him,

00:07:17.220 --> 00:07:22.180
for sincere repentance eradicates whatever came before it.

00:07:22.180 --> 00:07:24.180
"Takes to account for sin"

00:07:24.180 --> 00:07:27.180
means: He punishes for it if He wills.

00:07:27.180 --> 00:07:31.269
Key lessons from the hadith:

00:07:31.269 --> 00:07:35.269
The greatness of Allah Almighty's favor and mercy upon His servants,

00:07:35.269 --> 00:07:40.269
as long as they believe that their Lord holds their ultimate affairs in His hand:

00:07:40.269 --> 00:07:43.269
if He wills He forgives, and if He wills He punishes.

00:07:43.269 --> 00:07:47.750
Sincere repentance expiates sin.

00:07:47.750 --> 00:07:52.360
The believer in Allah Almighty purifies his heart through repentance,

00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:54.360
hopes for his Lord's pardon,

00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:57.360
hastens toward righteousness and good deeds,

00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:59.360
and if a sin occurs from him,

00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:02.360
he swiftly remedies it through repentance

00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:05.740
and does not persist in disobedience.

00:08:05.740 --> 00:08:06.740
This hadith

00:08:06.740 --> 00:08:11.740
is proof that even if a sin is repeated a hundred times or more,

00:08:11.740 --> 00:08:15.740
and the person repents each time, his repentance is accepted

00:08:15.740 --> 00:08:17.740
and his sins fall away;

00:08:17.740 --> 00:08:22.740
and even if he repents for all of them with a single repentance after committing them all,

00:08:22.740 --> 00:08:24.740
his repentance remains valid.

00:08:24.740 --> 00:08:30.120
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:34.120
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:08:34.120 --> 00:08:36.120
"By Him in Whose Hand is my soul,

00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:39.120
if you were not to sin, Allah would replace you

00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:42.120
and bring a people who would sin,

00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:45.120
and then seek Allah Almighty's forgiveness,

00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:47.120
and He would forgive them."

00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:49.279
Narrated by Muslim.

00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:54.629
On the authority of Abu Ayyub Khalid ibn Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

00:08:54.629 --> 00:08:58.629
I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, say:

00:08:58.629 --> 00:09:01.629
"Were it not that you commit sins,

00:09:01.629 --> 00:09:04.629
Allah would create a creation who commit sins,

00:09:04.629 --> 00:09:07.629
and then seek forgiveness, and He would forgive them."

00:09:07.629 --> 00:09:09.789
Narrated by Muslim.

00:09:09.789 --> 00:09:14.320
Key lessons from the hadith:

00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:19.549
A demonstration of Allah Almighty's grace upon His servants through pardon and forgiveness.

00:09:19.549 --> 00:09:21.960
Every child of Adam is prone to error,

00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:26.960
so the servant must hasten to seek forgiveness and repent.

00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:29.379
Among the wisdoms behind religious accountability (taklif)

00:09:29.379 --> 00:09:31.379
is the manifestation of the Divine Names of Allah,

00:09:31.379 --> 00:09:34.379
which encompass His forbearance, His pardon,

00:09:34.379 --> 00:09:38.379
His forgiveness, His concealment of faults, His overlooking the misdeeds of His creation,

00:09:38.379 --> 00:09:42.379
and His emancipation of whomever He wills among His servants.

00:09:42.379 --> 00:09:46.799
The hadith contains no incitement toward committing sins;

00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:49.799
rather, it offers glad tidings of forgiveness,

00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:52.799
and dispels overwhelming fear and despair

00:09:52.799 --> 00:09:56.799
from the hearts of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:00.799
For they used to flee to the mountains

00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:05.799
and withdraw from life and its pleasures out of intense fear,

00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:11.799
so this brought reassurance and hope in Allah's pardon and forgiveness.

00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:17.360
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:22.360
We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:27.360
and among our group were Abu Bakr and 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them).

00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:31.360
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) stood up

00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:35.360
from our midst and was absent for a long time,

00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:38.360
so we feared that he might have been harmed or intercepted in our absence.

00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:43.360
We panicked and stood up, and I was the first to panic;

00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:48.360
so I went out searching for the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him),

00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:51.360
until I came upon an enclosed garden belonging to the Ansar.

00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:55.360
—and he mentioned the hadith in full up to where he said:

00:10:55.360 --> 00:10:59.360
Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:06.360
"Go, and whomever you meet beyond this garden who testifies that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah,

00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:11.519
with full certainty in his heart, give him the glad tidings of Paradise."

00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:14.159
Narrated by Muslim.

00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:18.259
"Min bayni azhurina" means from our midst.

00:11:18.259 --> 00:11:23.259
"Yuqta'a" means to be seized, harmed, or ambushed.

00:11:23.259 --> 00:11:28.289
"Fazi'na" means we became alarmed and went out searching for him.

00:11:29.289 --> 00:11:30.289
"Abtaghi" means I sought.

00:11:30.289 --> 00:11:34.450
"Ha'itan" means an enclosed garden or orchard.

00:11:34.450 --> 00:11:38.450
"Mustayqinan" means having certainty and firm belief.

00:11:38.450 --> 00:11:42.250
Key lessons from the hadith:

00:11:42.250 --> 00:11:48.250
The intense love of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) for the Messenger (peace be upon him),

00:11:48.250 --> 00:11:52.570
and their deep concern for his safety from every harm.

00:11:52.570 --> 00:11:55.570
True faith grants entry into Paradise,

00:11:55.570 --> 00:11:58.570
either initially through Allah's forgiveness,

00:11:58.570 --> 00:12:01.990
or after enduring purification in the Fire.

00:12:01.990 --> 00:12:07.360
The legitimacy of conveying good news and glad tidings.

00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:11.360
On the authority of 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-'As (may Allah be pleased with them both),

00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:16.360
that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, recited the words of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime,

00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:20.360
concerning Abraham (peace be upon him),

00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:25.360
“My Lord! Lo! they have led many of mankind astray. But whoso followeth me, he verily is of me. And whoso disobeyeth me - Still Thou art Forgiving, Merciful.” (14:36)

00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:28.360
“My Lord! Lo! they have led many of mankind astray. But whoso followeth me, he verily is of me. And whoso disobeyeth me - Still Thou art Forgiving, Merciful.” (14:36)

00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:32.360
and the words of Jesus (peace be upon him),

00:12:32.360 --> 00:12:36.360
“If Thou punish them, lo! they are Thy slaves, and if Thou forgive them (lo! they are Thy slaves). Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Mighty, the Wise.” (5:118)

00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:41.360
“If Thou punish them, lo! they are Thy slaves, and if Thou forgive them (lo! they are Thy slaves). Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the Mighty, the Wise.” (5:118)

00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:44.399
he raised his hands and said:

00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:47.399
"O Allah, my Ummah, my Ummah!"

00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:49.399
and he wept.

00:12:49.399 --> 00:12:51.399
Thereupon, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, said:

00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:53.399
"O Gabriel,

00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:55.399
go to Muhammad—

00:12:55.399 --> 00:12:57.399
though your Lord knows best—

00:12:57.399 --> 00:12:59.429
and ask him what makes him weep."

00:12:59.429 --> 00:13:01.429
So Gabriel came to him,

00:13:01.429 --> 00:13:06.429
and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) told him what he had said,

00:13:06.429 --> 00:13:08.429
though He already knows best.

00:13:08.429 --> 00:13:10.429
Then Allah, the Exalted, said:

00:13:10.429 --> 00:13:12.429
"O Gabriel,

00:13:12.429 --> 00:13:14.429
go to Muhammad

00:13:14.429 --> 00:13:15.429
and say:

00:13:15.429 --> 00:13:19.590
'We shall surely please you regarding your Ummah, and We will not cause you grief.'"

00:13:19.590 --> 00:13:23.549
Transmitted by Muslim.

00:13:23.549 --> 00:13:25.740
Key takeaways from the hadith:

00:13:25.740 --> 00:13:31.740
This hadith is among the most hope-inspiring hadiths for the Ummah of Muhammad (peace be upon him).

00:13:31.740 --> 00:13:37.379
It demonstrates the profound compassion of the Prophet (peace be upon him) for his Ummah,

00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:39.379
his deep concern for their well-being,

00:13:39.379 --> 00:13:42.379
and his devotion to their affairs.

00:13:42.379 --> 00:13:47.509
It highlights the exalted status of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) with Allah,

00:13:47.509 --> 00:13:50.509
and that He will elevate him until he is well pleased.

00:13:50.509 --> 00:13:52.990
It is part of the Sunnah in supplication

00:13:52.990 --> 00:13:54.990
to raise one's hands.

00:13:54.990 --> 00:13:58.279
It affirms the transcendence and loftiness of Allah the Exalted above His creation,

00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:00.279
and that He is above the heavens,

00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:04.279
where hearts and hands turn toward Him.

00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:09.779
On the authority of Mu'adh Ibn Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

00:14:09.779 --> 00:14:14.779
I was riding behind the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) on a donkey,

00:14:14.779 --> 00:14:15.779
and he said:

00:14:15.779 --> 00:14:17.779
"O Mu'adh,

00:14:17.779 --> 00:14:20.779
do you know what Allah's right over His servants is,

00:14:20.779 --> 00:14:23.779
and what the servants' right over Allah is?"

00:14:23.779 --> 00:14:24.779
I replied:

00:14:24.779 --> 00:14:27.779
"Allah and His Messenger know best."

00:14:27.779 --> 00:14:28.779
He said:

00:14:28.779 --> 00:14:34.779
"Indeed, Allah's right over His servants is that they worship Him alone and associate nothing with Him,

00:14:34.779 --> 00:14:36.779
and the right of the servants over Allah

00:14:36.779 --> 00:14:40.779
is that He will not punish anyone who associates nothing with Him."

00:14:40.779 --> 00:14:41.779
I said:

00:14:41.779 --> 00:14:43.779
"O Messenger of Allah,

00:14:43.779 --> 00:14:45.779
should I not give glad tidings to the people?"

00:14:45.779 --> 00:14:46.779
He replied:

00:14:46.779 --> 00:14:49.779
"Do not tell them, lest they rely entirely on it and slacken in their deeds."

00:14:49.779 --> 00:14:51.779
Agreed upon.

00:14:51.779 --> 00:14:55.879
On the authority of Al-Bara' Ibn 'Azib (may Allah be pleased with them both),

00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:59.879
that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:

00:14:59.879 --> 00:15:02.879
"When a Muslim is questioned in the grave,

00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:05.879
he testifies that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah

00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:08.879
and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:10.879
That is what is meant by the words of Allah the Exalted: ﴿Allah keeps firm those who believe, with the firm word...﴾"

00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:18.970
“Allah confirmeth those who believe by a firm saying in the life of the world and in the Hereafter, and Allah sendeth wrong-doers astray. And Allah doeth what He will.” (14:27)

00:15:18.970 --> 00:15:20.970
Agreed upon.

00:15:20.970 --> 00:15:24.740
"Keeps firm" means He strengthens them

00:15:24.740 --> 00:15:26.740
"with the firm word,"

00:15:26.740 --> 00:15:29.740
meaning with decisive proof and clear evidence.

00:15:29.740 --> 00:15:33.539
Key takeaways from the hadith:

00:15:33.539 --> 00:15:36.179
The questioning in the grave is a reality.

00:15:36.179 --> 00:15:41.659
It shows Allah's care for His believing servants in this world and the Hereafter.

00:15:41.659 --> 00:15:44.659
The best commentary on the Book of Allah

00:15:44.659 --> 00:15:49.490
is the speech of His Messenger (peace be upon him).

00:15:49.490 --> 00:15:51.490
