WEBVTT 00:00:00.850 --> 00:00:03.850 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:03.850 --> 00:00:09.300 The life of the predecessors between words and deeds 00:00:09.300 --> 00:00:14.310 The position of the Salaf towards the Companions 00:00:14.310 --> 00:00:17.309 Explaining their status and position 00:00:17.309 --> 00:00:21.890 Ibn Omar, may God be pleased with them, said 00:00:21.890 --> 00:00:24.890 Do not insult the companions of Muhammad 00:00:24.890 --> 00:00:27.890 Not one of them got up for an hour 00:00:27.890 --> 00:00:30.890 Better than the work of any of you Omar 00:00:32.500 --> 00:00:36.500 On the authority of Abdullah bin Masoud, may God be pleased with him, he said 00:00:36.500 --> 00:00:39.500 People are still fine 00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:42.500 Knowledge was not given to them by the companions of Muhammad 00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:46.500 May God bless him and grant him peace and their elders 00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:50.500 If knowledge comes to them from the youngest of them 00:00:50.500 --> 00:00:54.039 That's when they perished 00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:59.039 Al-Miqdam Ibn Maadi Karb, may God be pleased with him, entered the mosque 00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:03.039 He saw people praying voluntarily in the mosque 00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.040 And he said 00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:08.040 A prayer like the prayer of angels 00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:12.140 By God, you are more prayerful than us 00:01:12.140 --> 00:01:15.140 And we were better than you 00:01:15.140 --> 00:01:21.780 On the authority of Abu Anabah Al-Khawlani, may God be pleased with him, he said 00:01:21.780 --> 00:01:26.780 Shall I not tell you about the hardship your brothers went through? 00:01:26.780 --> 00:01:29.780 Meaning the Companions, may God be pleased with them 00:01:29.780 --> 00:01:31.969 The first one 00:01:31.969 --> 00:01:35.969 Meeting God was more beloved to them than witnessing 00:01:35.969 --> 00:01:38.189 And the second 00:01:38.189 --> 00:01:43.189 They were not afraid of any enemy, whether small or large 00:01:43.189 --> 00:01:45.450 And the third 00:01:45.450 --> 00:01:49.450 They were not afraid of the worldly need 00:01:49.450 --> 00:01:53.640 They trusted God to provide for them 00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:55.640 And the fourth 00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:57.640 If he descends upon him, he will be plagued 00:01:57.640 --> 00:02:03.219 They did not leave until God decreed for them what He had decreed 00:02:03.219 --> 00:02:07.219 Al-Hasan, may God have mercy on him, was in a council 00:02:07.219 --> 00:02:11.219 He mentioned the companions of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:02:11.219 --> 00:02:13.379 And he said 00:02:13.379 --> 00:02:18.379 They were the most righteous of this nation in heart 00:02:18.379 --> 00:02:20.379 And the deepest knowledge 00:02:20.379 --> 00:02:23.409 And the least expensive 00:02:23.409 --> 00:02:30.469 A people chosen by God Almighty to accompany His Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:02:30.469 --> 00:02:34.469 So they imitated their morals and ways 00:02:34.469 --> 00:02:39.979 They, by the Lord of the Kaaba, are on straight guidance 00:02:39.979 --> 00:02:43.979 On the authority of Ibrahim Al-Nakha’i, may God have mercy on him, he said: 00:02:43.979 --> 00:02:51.939 Nothing was kept for you that was hidden from the people because of your preference 00:02:51.939 --> 00:02:55.939 The meaning, merit and importance of testimony 00:02:55.939 --> 00:03:00.740 And beware of what contradicts it 00:03:00.740 --> 00:03:04.740 Shaddad bin Usain, may God be pleased with him, said 00:03:04.740 --> 00:03:09.860 What I fear most for you is polytheism and hidden lust 00:03:09.860 --> 00:03:15.090 It was said to him: After Islam, you fear polytheism for us 00:03:15.090 --> 00:03:21.120 He said: There is no polytheism unless you place another god with God 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.219 The Sheikh said in the margin 00:03:23.219 --> 00:03:30.219 The meaning is that polytheism is not limited to making another god with God 00:03:30.219 --> 00:03:32.219 Rather, it is more comprehensive and general 00:03:32.219 --> 00:03:36.280 Someone who prays and prostrates to God may fall into it 00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:40.280 Like one who seeks help from the dead and beseeches them 00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:43.280 And whoever loves someone as God loves 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.280 Or he fears him as he fears God 00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:51.889 It was said that Wahab bin Munabbih, may God have mercy on him 00:03:51.889 --> 00:03:55.889 Isn't the key to heaven there is no god but God? 00:03:55.889 --> 00:03:57.949 He said yes 00:03:57.949 --> 00:04:02.949 But there is no key that does not have teeth 00:04:02.949 --> 00:04:05.949 Whoever hits the door with his teeth, it will be opened for him 00:04:05.949 --> 00:04:11.460 Whoever does not approach the door with his teeth, it will not be opened for him 00:04:11.460 --> 00:04:15.620 On the authority of Sufyan bin Uyaynah, may God have mercy on him, he said: 00:04:15.620 --> 00:04:24.660 God Almighty has not bestowed a better blessing on His servants than to make them know that there is no god but God 00:04:24.660 --> 00:04:28.660 And there is no god but Allah for them in the Hereafter 00:04:28.660 --> 00:04:30.660 Like water in the world 00:04:30.660 --> 00:04:37.500 Loyalty and disavowal 00:04:37.500 --> 00:04:41.500 On the authority of Abu Musa Al-Ashari, may God be pleased with him, he said 00:04:41.500 --> 00:04:44.500 I said to Omar, may God be pleased with him 00:04:44.500 --> 00:04:47.500 I have a Christian writer 00:04:47.500 --> 00:04:49.500 He said 00:04:49.500 --> 00:04:52.500 Why didn't you hear God say? 00:04:52.500 --> 00:04:59.500 O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and Christians as allies 00:04:59.500 --> 00:05:02.939 Some of them are guardians of each other 00:05:02.939 --> 00:05:05.980 Have you taken Hanif? 00:05:05.980 --> 00:05:06.980 He said 00:05:06.980 --> 00:05:13.069 I said, O Commander of the Faithful, I have his book and he has his religion 00:05:13.069 --> 00:05:14.069 He said 00:05:14.069 --> 00:05:17.069 I do not honor them if God insults them 00:05:17.069 --> 00:05:20.069 I do not honor them if God permits them 00:05:20.069 --> 00:05:24.069 I am not the lowest of them, since God has excluded them 00:05:24.069 --> 00:05:30.740 Abu Al-Fawaris Shah bin Shuja’ Al-Kirmani, may God have mercy on him, said 00:05:30.740 --> 00:05:35.839 Whoever knows his Lord aspires to His pardon and hopes in His bounty 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:42.839 And what you worship is worshiped with more than love for God’s friends with what they love 00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:48.839 Because loving God’s friends is evidence of God’s love 00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:54.240 Condemnation of swearing by someone other than God 00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:59.139 On the authority of Jablah bin Suhaim, may God have mercy on him, he said: 00:05:59.139 --> 00:06:05.199 I came with Ziyad bin Hudayr Al-Asadi, may God have mercy on him, from the sweeper 00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:10.259 The sweeper is the place where dirt and dirt are thrown 00:06:10.259 --> 00:06:13.259 And what houses he sweeps 00:06:13.259 --> 00:06:17.459 So I said in my words no and honesty 00:06:17.459 --> 00:06:21.550 So Ziad started crying and crying 00:06:21.550 --> 00:06:25.649 So I thought I had done something great 00:06:25.649 --> 00:06:29.649 I told him, “Does he hate this?” 00:06:29.649 --> 00:06:35.649 He said: Yes, he strictly forbade swearing by a trustworthy person 00:06:35.649 --> 00:06:40.860 The origins of the year as a whole 00:06:40.860 --> 00:06:45.199 Imam Malik, may God have mercy on him, said 00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:48.199 Faith is word and deed 00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:50.199 Increases and decreases 00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:53.199 Some are better than others 00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:55.420 And God is in heaven 00:06:55.420 --> 00:06:58.420 And his knowledge is everywhere 00:06:58.420 --> 00:07:02.680 The Qur’an is the word of God 00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:05.680 And the word of God is from God 00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:08.680 Nothing created by God 00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:11.680 Whoever says the Qur’an is created 00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:13.680 He is an infidel 00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:16.680 And the one who stands is stronger than him 00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:18.680 He repents 00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:20.680 Otherwise, I will hit his neck 00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:25.579 Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal, may God have mercy on him, said 00:07:25.579 --> 00:07:27.579 Imam of the Sunnis 00:07:27.579 --> 00:07:29.579 And the patient under the ordeal 00:07:29.579 --> 00:07:33.899 All together,

00:07:42.899 That is the year in which the Messenger of God died 00:07:42.899 --> 00:07:45.899 The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:07:45.899 --> 00:07:49.899 The first of which is satisfaction with the will of God Almighty 00:07:49.899 --> 00:07:51.899 And surrender to his command 00:07:51.899 --> 00:07:53.899 And be patient with his judgment 00:07:53.899 --> 00:07:56.899 And take what God has commanded 00:07:56.899 --> 00:07:59.899 And refrain from doing what God has forbidden 00:07:59.899 --> 00:08:03.899 Belief in destiny brings good and bad 00:08:03.899 --> 00:08:06.899 And abandon disputing and arguing about religion 00:08:06.899 --> 00:08:09.899 And wiping over the socks 00:08:09.899 --> 00:08:13.899 And jihad is with every caliph, righteous and immoral 00:08:13.899 --> 00:08:17.899 And praying for those who died among the people of the past 00:08:17.899 --> 00:08:20.930 Faith is word and deed 00:08:20.930 --> 00:08:23.930 It increases with obedience and decreases with disobedience 00:08:23.930 --> 00:08:27.019 The Qur’an is the word of God 00:08:27.019 --> 00:08:32.019 A home on the heart of his Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:08:32.019 --> 00:08:36.019 Uncreated from where he died to me 00:08:36.019 --> 00:08:42.019 And patience under the banner of the Sultan in the face of justice or injustice 00:08:42.019 --> 00:08:47.019 And we must not revolt against the princes with the sword, even if they are unjust 00:08:47.019 --> 00:08:51.090 And we should not declare any of the people of monotheism a disbeliever 00:08:51.090 --> 00:08:53.090 Even if he commits major sins 00:08:53.090 --> 00:08:59.090 And refrain from quarreling among the Companions of the Messenger of God, may God
