The Garden of Guidance.

00:00:03.459 --> 00:00:08.000
Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, said:

00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:21.000
“And when they became steadfast and believed firmly in Our revelations, We appointed from among them leaders who guided by Our command.” (32:24)

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:25.539
And on the authority of Ubayy ibn Ka'b, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:00:25.539 --> 00:00:29.539
"When the words of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, were revealed:

00:00:29.539 --> 00:00:38.539
“If ye punish, then punish with the like of that wherewith ye were afflicted. But if ye endure patiently, verily it is better for the patient.” (16:126)

00:00:38.539 --> 00:00:42.539
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:00:42.539 --> 00:00:45.700
'We shall endure patiently and not retaliate.'"

00:00:45.700 --> 00:00:48.380
Narrated by Ahmad.

00:00:48.380 --> 00:00:49.380
An insightful benefit:

00:00:49.380 --> 00:00:54.890
Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah, may Allah have mercy on him, said regarding the words of the Exalted:

00:00:54.890 --> 00:00:59.890
“And when they became steadfast and believed firmly in Our revelations, We appointed from among them leaders who guided by Our command.” (32:24)

00:00:59.890 --> 00:01:02.890
"And they were certain of Our signs."

00:01:02.890 --> 00:01:06.890
He said: "When they took hold of the core of the matter,

00:01:06.890 --> 00:01:08.890
We made them leaders."
