In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The story of Maryam, daughter of Imran, peace be upon her.
Mary’s submission to God’s command
The truth of a woman’s Islam is evident in her extent of submission to God’s command.
This is the standard of faith for all people
It is one of the biggest issues around which the meanings of the verses and stories in Surat Al-Baqarah revolve
Our Lord Almighty praised His Prophet and friend Abraham, peace and blessings be upon him, by surrendering to him.
And he said
Whoever turns away from the religion of Abraham except one who fools himself
We have chosen him in this world, and in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous
When his Lord said to him, “I submit,” he said, “I submit to the Lord of the Worlds.”
Al-Saadi, may God have mercy on him, said when his Lord said to him, “I submit to Islam.” He said, “In compliance with the command of his Lord, I have submitted to the Lord of the Worlds.”
Sincerity, unity, love and representation
A woman's faith increases or decreases according to her submission to God's command and law
Ibn Taymiyyah, may God have mercy on him, said that Islam includes submission to God alone
Whoever surrenders to him and to others is a polytheist
Whoever does not submit to Him is arrogant in worshiping Him
Anyone who polytheizes Him and is arrogant in worshiping Him is an unbeliever
Surrendering to Him alone includes worshiping Him alone and obeying Him alone
This is the religion of Islam, other than which God does not accept
This can only be done by being obeyed at all times
By doing what he was ordered to do at that time
This is the conclusion mentioned by Ibn Taymiyyah, may God have mercy on him
Summarizes the issue of surrender for you
It is to obey God Almighty at all times
Do what I told you to do at that time
And when you look at the story of Mary
And what God Almighty commanded her to do and wrote for her
The one who became pregnant with Jesus while she was a chaste virgin
Not touched by a man
She did not object after she knew that this was the command of God Almighty
That is why God Almighty said about it
So she carried him and took him away to a far away place
Ibn Kathir, may God have mercy on him, said
God Almighty says about Mary
It was when Gabriel told her about God Almighty what he said
She surrendered to God Almighty's judgment
And Mary, peace be upon him, before the good news of Jesus came to her
She was eager to worship God in Jerusalem
Away from people
I have taken a veil from them
Then the test of pregnancy came to her
I succeeded in it
Her status with God Almighty rose
Until He made it a sign to the worlds
God Almighty said
And the one who protected her chastity
So we breathed into it of our spirit
And We made her and her son a sign to the worlds
And he said
And We made the son of Mary and his mother a sign
We sheltered them in a hill with a clear and stable place
God’s examination of His servants is a past year that does not change or change
Even the prophets
God will afflict them with the most severe types of affliction
All of this is to show the extent of their submission to God’s command and law and their steadfastness in it
God Almighty said
People think that they will be left without saying, “We believe,” and they will not be tried
We tried those before them
May God teach us those who are truthful and teach us those who are liars
Ibn Kathir, may God have mercy on him, said
God Almighty said
People think that they will be left without saying, “We believe,” and they will not be tried
Denial interrogative
It means that God Almighty must test His faithful servants
According to their faith
As stated in the authentic hadith
The most afflicted people are the prophets
Then the righteous
Then the optimal, then the optimal
A man will be tested according to his religion
If he has solidity in his religion
Increase his calamity
Mary, peace be upon him, is one of the righteous deeds
Because of the strength of her faith
God tested her with a great matter
It is pregnancy without politics
How will she face her people when she is the one who is known for nothing but worship and devotion to her
This is the test with which God Almighty tests His servants according to their faith
To see the extent of their submission to His command and His law and the extent of their steadfastness towards Him
This is a test
Its aim is to clarify the truthful from the false in supplication of faith
Al-Saadi, may God have mercy on him, said
God Almighty tells us about the fullness of His wisdom
His wisdom does not require that everyone who says he is a believer
He claimed faith for himself
To remain in a state in which they are safe from temptations and tribulations
And do not expose them to anything that will confuse their faith and its weakness
If that were the case, they would
He did not distinguish the truthful from the liar
And the right is the one who is wrong
But its Sunnah and custom were among the ancients and in this nation
To afflict them
And from God's mercy toward His servants
He helps the truthful ones with what He afflicts them with
It also happened in the story of Mary
God helped her confront her people with clear signs
Who spoke Jesus as an infant?
And his words are in the cradle
Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali, may God have mercy on him, said
But God is kind to His faithful servants in these temptations
He gives them patience and rewards them
And do not throw them into a destructive and misleading temptation that will destroy their religion
Rather, temptations pass over them and they are in good health
Praying and believing is easy
Because it is words
But the truth of faith is revealed in the source of commitment
The practicality required of both male and female Muslims
Therefore, God denied the Bedouins
As in the Almighty’s saying
The Bedouins said, “We are safe.”
Say, “You do not believe, but speak.”
We converted to Islam when faith entered your hearts
And if you obey God and His Messenger
Nothing of your deeds will devour you
God is Forgiving and Merciful
The believers are only those who believe in God and His Messenger
Then they were not suspicious
They strove with their money and their lives for the sake of God
Those are the truthful ones
Say, “Do you know God about your religion?”
And God knows what is in the heavens and what is on earth
And God is All-Knowing of all things
He forbids you from being alone with a foreign man
And mixing in the fields of work
It is forbidden for you to go out wearing perfume
He commanded you to obey your husband
He created you as a female, different from a male
All of this and other matters are part of God’s law and command
It requires absolute and unquestionable surrender from you
Because God does not command you to do something or forbid you to do something
Except for your benefit in this world and the hereafter
It is not enough to say it is true and I believe
Then do not surrender to it or apply it
It is not enough to say that you love God and His Messenger
Then you do not comply with the command of God and His Messenger in the reality of your life
Or you argue about the command of God and His Messenger when it contradicts your desires
It contradicts the reality of societies
For fear of societal pressure on you
And their disapproval of you or their mockery of you
All of this is contrary to submission to God’s command and law
And look at the condition of the Jews
When they opposed God's command with much controversy
What happened to them due to the stress on them in this world?
God Almighty said
And when Moses said to his people:
God commands you to slaughter a cow
They said: Do you take us as a mocker?
He said, “I seek refuge in God from being among the ignorant.”
He said, “Pray for us, and your Lord will explain to us what it is.”
He said that he says she is a cow, neither ripe nor virgin, in between
So do what you are commanded
He said, “Pray for us, and your Lord will show us what color it is.”
He says he says it's a yellow cow
Its bright color delights the beholders
He said, “Pray for us, and your Lord will explain to us what it is.”
The cow is too old for us
And we, God willing, will be guided
He said that he says she is a cow that cannot plow the ground
Do not irrigate the tillage until it is clean and has no spots on it
They said, "Now you have come with the truth."
So they slaughtered it and they hardly did it
And when you killed a soul and turned away from it
By God, what you have been concealing will come out
So say: Let us strike him with one another. This is how God revives the dead
And He will show you His signs that you may understand
God Almighty said about them as well
And when Moses said to his people:
O people, remember God’s blessing upon you
When He made prophets among you
And He made you kings
And He has given you what He has not given to anyone else in the world
O people, you have entered the Holy Land
Which God has written for you
And do not turn your backs
They will turn away as losers
They said, “O Moses, there are mighty people there.”
We will not enter it
Until they get out of it
If they come out of it
We will enter
Two men who were afraid said
May God bless them
They entered the door
If you enter it, you will be victorious
And put your trust in God
If you are believers
They said, “O Moses, we will not enter it.”
Never as long as they are there
So go, you and your Lord
So they fought, and they were sitting here
He said, “My Lord, I have no control over anyone but myself and my brother.”
So create a difference between us and the immoral people
He said it is forbidden to them
For forty years they wandered in the land
Do not feel sorry for the immoral people
And not to surrender to the command and law of God Almighty
And argue about it
It stems from arrogance that dominates the heart
This is one of the most dangerous types of arrogance
For a Muslim woman to be arrogant before God Almighty
She rejects his law with her mind and desire
God Almighty said
Those who dispute the verses of God
He came to them without authority
He is greatly hated by God and those who believe
Likewise, God puts a stamp on every arrogant and tyrannical heart
And God Almighty said
Those who dispute the verses of God
He came to them without authority
There is nothing but arrogance in their chests
They are not exaggerating
So seek refuge in God
He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing
O you who loved Mary, peace be upon him
I imitated it
Beware of lest people of desires seek refuge in you
To reject God's law and argue with it
By any of the flimsy arguments
You must follow the path of righteous deeds from the mothers of the believers and female companions
And the righteous women who followed their path throughout the great history of this nation
We will continue in an upcoming meeting, God willing
Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds
