1 00:00:00,780 --> 00:00:09,779 Riyadh al-Salihin from the words of the Master of the Messengers, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 2 00:00:09,779 --> 00:00:16,280 Chapter: The Obligation of Submission to the Command of Allah the Exalted. 3 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:22,280 And what one should say when called to that, or commanded to do good or forbidden from evil. 4 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,690 Allah the Exalted said: 5 00:00:26,690 --> 00:00:31,690 “But nay, by thy Lord, they will not believe (in truth) until they make thee judge of what is in dispute between them and find within themselves no dislike of that which thou decidest, and submit with full submission.” (4:65) 6 00:00:31,690 --> 00:00:39,689 “But nay, by thy Lord, they will not believe (in truth) until they make thee judge of what is in dispute between them and find within themselves no dislike of that which thou decidest, and submit with full submission.” (4:65) 7 00:00:39,689 --> 00:00:41,719 And He the Exalted said: 8 00:00:41,719 --> 00:00:54,719 “The saying of (all true) believers when they appeal unto Allah and His messenger to judge between them is only that they say: We hear and we obey. And such are the successful.” (24:51) 9 00:00:54,719 --> 00:01:01,310 On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 10 00:01:01,310 --> 00:01:06,310 When there was revealed to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him: 11 00:01:06,310 --> 00:01:10,310 "To Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth." 12 00:01:10,310 --> 00:01:17,439 “Unto Allah (belongeth) whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth; and whether ye make known what is in your minds or hide it, Allah will bring you to account for it. He will forgive whom He will and He will punish whom He will. Allah is Able to do all things.” (2:284) 13 00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:22,439 This weighed heavily upon the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 14 00:01:22,439 --> 00:01:26,439 So they came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 15 00:01:26,439 --> 00:01:28,439 Then they knelt down on their knees. 16 00:01:28,439 --> 00:01:29,439 And they said: 17 00:01:29,439 --> 00:01:31,439 "O Messenger of Allah! 18 00:01:31,439 --> 00:01:34,439 We have been tasked with deeds we can bear: 19 00:01:34,439 --> 00:01:38,439 Prayer, jihad, fasting, and charity. 20 00:01:38,439 --> 00:01:43,439 But this verse has been revealed to you, and we cannot bear it." 21 00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:47,629 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 22 00:01:47,629 --> 00:01:52,629 "Do you wish to say as the People of the Two Books said before you: 23 00:01:52,629 --> 00:01:54,629 'We hear and we disobey'? 24 00:01:54,629 --> 00:01:57,629 Rather, say: 'We hear and we obey.'" 25 00:01:57,629 --> 00:02:01,629 “The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his Lord and (so do) believers. Each one believeth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers - We make no distinction between any of His messengers - and they say: We hear, and we obey. (Grant us) Thy forgiveness, our Lord. Unto Thee is the journeying.” (2:285) 26 00:02:01,629 --> 00:02:04,629 They said: "We hear and we obey." 27 00:02:04,629 --> 00:02:08,629 “The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his Lord and (so do) believers. Each one believeth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers - We make no distinction between any of His messengers - and they say: We hear, and we obey. (Grant us) Thy forgiveness, our Lord. Unto Thee is the journeying.” (2:285) 28 00:02:08,629 --> 00:02:12,629 When the people recited it and their tongues became accustomed to it, 29 00:02:12,629 --> 00:02:15,629 Allah the Exalted revealed in its wake: 30 00:02:15,629 --> 00:02:21,629 “The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his Lord and (so do) believers. Each one believeth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers - We make no distinction between any of His messengers - and they say: We hear, and we obey. (Grant us) Thy forgiveness, our Lord. Unto Thee is the journeying.” (2:285) 31 00:02:21,629 --> 00:02:26,629 “The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his Lord and (so do) believers. Each one believeth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers - We make no distinction between any of His messengers - and they say: We hear, and we obey. (Grant us) Thy forgiveness, our Lord. Unto Thee is the journeying.” (2:285) 32 00:02:26,629 --> 00:02:30,629 “The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his Lord and (so do) believers. Each one believeth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers - We make no distinction between any of His messengers - and they say: We hear, and we obey. (Grant us) Thy forgiveness, our Lord. Unto Thee is the journeying.” (2:285) 33 00:02:30,629 --> 00:02:33,629 "And they said: 'We hear and we obey.'" 34 00:02:33,629 --> 00:02:37,629 “The messenger believeth in that which hath been revealed unto him from his Lord and (so do) believers. Each one believeth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers - We make no distinction between any of His messengers - and they say: We hear, and we obey. (Grant us) Thy forgiveness, our Lord. Unto Thee is the journeying.” (2:285) 35 00:02:37,629 --> 00:02:41,699 When they did that, Allah the Exalted abrogated it. 36 00:02:41,699 --> 00:02:44,699 So Allah the Almighty and Majestic revealed: 37 00:02:44,699 --> 00:02:48,699 “Allah tasketh not a soul beyond its scope. For it (is only) that which it hath earned, and against it (only) that which it hath deserved. Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or miss the mark! Our Lord! Lay not on us such a burden as thou didst lay on those before us! Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us, absolve us and have mercy on us, Thou, our Protector, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk.” (2:286) 38 00:02:48,699 --> 00:02:51,699 “Allah tasketh not a soul beyond its scope. For it (is only) that which it hath earned, and against it (only) that which it hath deserved. Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or miss the mark! Our Lord! Lay not on us such a burden as thou didst lay on those before us! Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us, absolve us and have mercy on us, Thou, our Protector, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk.” (2:286) 39 00:02:52,699 --> 00:02:57,699 “Allah tasketh not a soul beyond its scope. For it (is only) that which it hath earned, and against it (only) that which it hath deserved. Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or miss the mark! Our Lord! Lay not on us such a burden as thou didst lay on those before us! Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us, absolve us and have mercy on us, Thou, our Protector, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk.” (2:286) 40 00:02:57,699 --> 00:02:59,699 He said: "Yes." 41 00:02:59,699 --> 00:03:06,699 “Allah tasketh not a soul beyond its scope. For it (is only) that which it hath earned, and against it (only) that which it hath deserved. Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or miss the mark! Our Lord! Lay not on us such a burden as thou didst lay on those before us! Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us, absolve us and have mercy on us, Thou, our Protector, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk.” (2:286) 42 00:03:06,699 --> 00:03:08,699 He said: "Yes." 43 00:03:08,699 --> 00:03:13,699 “Allah tasketh not a soul beyond its scope. For it (is only) that which it hath earned, and against it (only) that which it hath deserved. Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or miss the mark! Our Lord! Lay not on us such a burden as thou didst lay on those before us! Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us, absolve us and have mercy on us, Thou, our Protector, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk.” (2:286) 44 00:03:13,699 --> 00:03:15,699 He said: "Yes." 45 00:03:15,699 --> 00:03:19,699 "And pardon us, and forgive us, and have mercy upon us." 46 00:03:19,699 --> 00:03:24,699 “Allah tasketh not a soul beyond its scope. For it (is only) that which it hath earned, and against it (only) that which it hath deserved. Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or miss the mark! Our Lord! Lay not on us such a burden as thou didst lay on those before us! Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us, absolve us and have mercy on us, Thou, our Protector, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk.” (2:286) 47 00:03:24,699 --> 00:03:26,699 He said: "Yes." 48 00:03:26,699 --> 00:03:28,860 Narrated by Muslim. 49 00:03:28,860 --> 00:03:34,009 "Recited it" means they read it. 50 00:03:34,009 --> 00:03:38,069 "Accustomed" means they submitted and humbled themselves. 51 00:03:38,069 --> 00:03:44,069 "Abrogated it" means He removed the ambiguity that had occurred in their souls regarding the first verse. 52 00:03:44,069 --> 00:03:48,580 And He clarified what was intended by it. 53 00:03:48,580 --> 00:03:50,699 From the benefits of the hadith: 54 00:03:50,699 --> 00:03:55,699 The depth of the understanding of the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, and their high standing. 55 00:03:55,699 --> 00:04:02,960 The firmness of their knowledge in the fiqh of the speech of Allah the Exalted and His Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 56 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:08,960 The swiftness of the response of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, to Allah and His Messenger. 57 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,960 And the implementation of the speech of Allah and His Messenger. 58 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,150 Submission and obedience to Allah. 59 00:04:15,150 --> 00:04:19,279 A cause for ease, assistance, and relief. 60 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,279 The Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, believed 61 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,279 That they would be held accountable for what they had no power to repel, 62 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,279 Such as passing thoughts. 63 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,279 Therefore, they viewed it as something unbearable. 64 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,279 But when they recited the verse and their hearts found tranquility in it, 65 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,279 And their tongues became accustomed to it, 66 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,279 And their limbs submitted to it, 67 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:46,279 Allah clarified to them that passing thoughts and the whispers of the soul 68 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,279 Are not what they are held accountable for. 69 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,279 And that what is intended are the firm resolutions. 70 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:58,500 The firm resolutions are those that settle in the soul and persist within it. 71 00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:00,759 They are of two types: 72 00:05:00,759 --> 00:05:03,759 First: That which is from the actions of the heart, 73 00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:08,759 Such as doubt in Lordship, Oneness, or Prophethood. 74 00:05:08,759 --> 00:05:12,759 For this, the servant is held accountable and punished. 75 00:05:12,759 --> 00:05:16,759 And by it, he becomes a disbeliever or a hypocrite. 76 00:05:16,759 --> 00:05:19,759 Likewise, loving what Allah hates, 77 00:05:19,759 --> 00:05:21,759 And hating what Allah loves, 78 00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:24,759 And arrogance, vanity, and envy, 79 00:05:24,759 --> 00:05:29,920 And having evil assumptions about the Muslims without a valid basis for that. 80 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,920 The second type: 81 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,920 That which is not from the actions of the heart, 82 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,920 But rather from the actions of the limbs, 83 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,920 Such as theft, drinking alcohol, and adultery. 84 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,920 If the servant persists in that and resolves to do it, 85 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,920 Then this is joined to the first type. 86 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,920 It is a love for what angers Allah, 87 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,920 And the settling of that in the soul, 88 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,920 Which prepares the limbs to commit these abominations 89 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,079 When they are able to do so and are alone with them. 90 00:05:58,079 --> 00:06:03,079 This is supported by the saying of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him: 91 00:06:03,079 --> 00:06:05,079 "Sin is that which wavers in your soul, 92 00:06:05,079 --> 00:06:09,079 And you dislike that people should find out about it." 93 00:06:09,079 --> 00:06:11,370 And Allah knows best. 94 00:06:11,370 --> 00:06:13,370 Clarification of what is required of him: 95 00:06:13,370 --> 00:06:17,819 The position of the Muslim regarding the commands of Allah the Exalted. 96 00:06:17,819 --> 00:06:20,819 The position of the Muslim regarding the commands of Allah the Exalted: 97 00:06:20,819 --> 00:06:22,819 Response and obedience, 98 00:06:22,819 --> 00:06:28,069 Knowing that Allah does not burden a soul beyond its capacity. 99 00:06:28,069 --> 00:06:31,069 The obligation of opposing the People of the Book, 100 00:06:31,069 --> 00:06:34,069 And the warning against following their Sunnah, 101 00:06:34,069 --> 00:06:37,069 And imitating them in words and deeds. 102 00:06:37,069 --> 00:06:40,300 The occurrence of abrogation in the Noble Qur'an, 103 00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:43,300 And its place is in the legal rulings. 104 00:06:43,300 --> 00:06:49,920 Chapter: The Prohibition of Innovations and Newly Invented Matters. 105 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:54,040 Allah the Exalted said: 106 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,100 “Such then is Allah, your rightful Lord. After the Truth what is there saving error? How then are ye turned away!” (10:32) 107 00:06:57,100 --> 00:06:59,139 And He the Exalted said: 108 00:06:59,139 --> 00:07:03,139 “There is not an animal in the earth, nor a flying creature flying on two wings, but they are peoples like unto you. We have neglected nothing in the Book (of Our decrees). Then unto their Lord they will be gathered.” (6:38) 109 00:07:03,139 --> 00:07:05,199 And He the Exalted said: 110 00:07:05,199 --> 00:07:08,199 “O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the messenger and those of you who are in authority; and if ye have a dispute concerning any matter, refer it to Allah and the messenger if ye are (in truth) believers in Allah and the Last Day. That is better and more seemly in the end.” (4:59) 111 00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:11,199 “O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the messenger and those of you who are in authority; and if ye have a dispute concerning any matter, refer it to Allah and the messenger if ye are (in truth) believers in Allah and the Last Day. That is better and more seemly in the end.” (4:59) 112 00:07:11,199 --> 00:07:14,329 Meaning the Book and the Sunnah. 113 00:07:14,329 --> 00:07:16,329 And He the Exalted said: 114 00:07:16,329 --> 00:07:21,329 “And (He commandeth you, saying): This is My straight path, so follow it. Follow not other ways, lest ye be parted from His way. This hath He ordained for you, that ye may ward off (evil).” (6:153) 115 00:07:21,329 --> 00:07:26,490 "And do not follow [other] ways, for you will be separated from His way." 116 00:07:26,490 --> 00:07:28,490 And He the Exalted said: 117 00:07:28,490 --> 00:07:37,740 “Say, (O Muhammad, to mankind): If ye love Allah, follow me; Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.” (3:31) 118 00:07:37,740 --> 00:07:43,019 The verses in this chapter are many and well-known. 119 00:07:43,019 --> 00:07:47,019 On the authority of 'A'ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, who said: 120 00:07:47,019 --> 00:07:50,019 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 121 00:07:50,019 --> 00:07:56,060 "Whoever introduces into this matter of ours that which is not part of it, it is rejected." 122 00:07:56,060 --> 00:07:58,120 Agreed upon. 123 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,120 And in a narration by Muslim: 124 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:05,120 "Whoever performs an act which is not in accordance with our matter, it is rejected." 125 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:10,019 "In our matter" means in our religion. 126 00:08:10,019 --> 00:08:11,019 "Rejected" 127 00:08:11,019 --> 00:08:16,980 Means cast back; it is not looked upon nor acted upon. 128 00:08:16,980 --> 00:08:18,980 From the benefits of the hadith: 129 00:08:18,980 --> 00:08:22,329 Newly invented matters are rejected, 130 00:08:22,329 --> 00:08:27,329 And Allah will not assign any weight to their inventor on the Day of Resurrection. 131 00:08:27,329 --> 00:08:30,620 The hadith clarifies that newly invented matters are innovations (bid'ah), 132 00:08:30,620 --> 00:08:33,620 And every innovation is a misguidance. 133 00:08:33,620 --> 00:08:38,620 It is a fundamental principle in refuting the division of innovations into bad and good. 134 00:08:38,620 --> 00:08:42,970 All prohibited contracts are void, 135 00:08:42,970 --> 00:08:44,970 And likewise their fruits, 136 00:08:44,970 --> 00:08:48,970 Because whatever is built upon falsehood is likewise. 137 00:08:48,970 --> 00:08:51,320 The definition of innovation: 138 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:56,320 Every matter that people adopt with the intention of drawing closer to Allah the Exalted, 139 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,320 And for which there is no text from the Book or the Sunnah, 140 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,320 Is a rejected innovation. 141 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:08,019 On the authority of Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 142 00:09:08,019 --> 00:09:13,019 When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, delivered a sermon, 143 00:09:13,019 --> 00:09:16,019 His eyes would redden, his voice would rise, 144 00:09:16,019 --> 00:09:18,019 And his anger would intensify, 145 00:09:18,019 --> 00:09:21,019 Until it was as if he were a warner of an army, 146 00:09:21,019 --> 00:09:25,019 Saying: "They are coming upon you in the morning or in the evening!" 147 00:09:25,019 --> 00:09:30,019 And he would say: "I and the Hour have been sent like these two," 148 00:09:30,019 --> 00:09:34,019 And he would join his index and middle fingers. 149

one who directly performs it in terms of the reward or punishment that follows. 311 00:19:05,009 --> 00:19:09,009 And perhaps his responsibility is doubled. 312 00:19:09,009 --> 00:19:11,200 Killing is of types: 313 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,200 Some of which is unjust, 314 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,200 And some of which is by right and justice, 315 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,200 Such as a life
