1 00:00:00,210 --> 00:00:03,669 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 2 00:00:03,669 --> 00:00:08,560 Milestones on the road to stability 3 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:14,000 Those who fell on the road 4 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,820 Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds 5 00:00:19,820 --> 00:00:24,699 I pray and greet the Messenger as a mercy to the worlds 6 00:00:24,699 --> 00:00:30,980 And upon his family, companions, and those who follow them in good deeds until the Day of Judgment 7 00:00:30,980 --> 00:00:32,679 As for after 8 00:00:33,079 --> 00:00:36,780 God created creation for testing and testing 9 00:00:36,780 --> 00:00:38,939 God Almighty said 10 00:00:38,939 --> 00:00:47,020 So bless the one in whose hand is the dominion, and He has power over all things 11 00:00:47,020 --> 00:00:54,520 Who created death and life to test you as to which of you is best in deed 12 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,820 He is the Mighty, the Forgiving 13 00:00:58,820 --> 00:01:01,530 Then he sent messengers to them 14 00:01:01,689 --> 00:01:05,370 Some of them believed and some of them disbelieved 15 00:01:05,370 --> 00:01:10,209 God refuses to test those who proclaim their faith 16 00:01:10,209 --> 00:01:12,209 And God Almighty said 17 00:01:12,299 --> 00:01:21,540 People think that they will be left without saying, “We believe,” and they will not be tried 18 00:01:21,540 --> 00:01:26,500 And those before them were tempted 19 00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:35,079 So let God know those who are truthful and let Him know those who are liars 20 00:01:35,079 --> 00:01:38,079 So distinguish the bad from the good 21 00:01:38,079 --> 00:01:40,079 As God Almighty said 22 00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:46,680 God would not leave the believers in the state you are in 23 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,299 To distinguish the bad from the good 24 00:01:51,299 --> 00:01:55,099 Those who remained steadfast remained steadfast, thanks to God’s grace and mercy 25 00:01:55,099 --> 00:01:58,099 Then with their solid foundation 26 00:01:58,099 --> 00:02:02,099 And the fallen fell because God abandoned them 27 00:02:02,099 --> 00:02:06,700 They were on the brink of Ravnahar, and he collapsed on them 28 00:02:06,700 --> 00:02:08,740 God Almighty said 29 00:02:08,740 --> 00:02:17,740 If they had done what they preach, it would have been better for them and more steadfast 30 00:02:17,740 --> 00:02:24,740 And if We had given them from Us a great reward 31 00:02:24,740 --> 00:02:30,740 And We will guide them to a straight path 32 00:02:30,740 --> 00:02:36,960 God has set an example for those who stand firm and those who fall on the path 33 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,020 And he said 34 00:02:39,020 --> 00:02:53,020 Have you not seen how God gives an example of a good word like a good tree? 35 00:02:53,020 --> 00:02:59,020 Its root is firm and its branches are in the sky 36 00:02:59,020 --> 00:03:05,020 It bears fruit at all times, with the permission of its Lord 37 00:03:05,020 --> 00:03:13,270 God sets examples for people so that they may remember 38 00:03:13,270 --> 00:03:18,270 An evil word is like an evil tree 39 00:03:18,270 --> 00:03:29,270 It uprooted from the earth what had no stability 40 00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:38,270 God strengthens those who believe with the firm word in this life and in the afterlife 41 00:03:38,270 --> 00:03:43,270 And God misleads the wrongdoers 42 00:03:43,270 --> 00:03:49,199 And God does whatever He wants 43 00:03:49,199 --> 00:03:54,199 So God Almighty began with the true rooting and description 44 00:03:54,199 --> 00:03:57,199 Then it was described as false rooting 45 00:03:57,199 --> 00:04:02,550 Then with the fruit of both roots of stability and its absence 46 00:04:02,550 --> 00:04:08,550 The good word is the word of monotheism, there is no god but God 47 00:04:08,550 --> 00:04:15,550 Every call that is not built on this great foundation is invalid and failed 48 00:04:15,550 --> 00:04:20,839 Because monotheism is the first and last duty 49 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,839 This word has firm roots in the soil of piety 50 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:31,839 Its branch was high in the sky and did not shake due to temptation 51 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:37,839 It is not driven by whims and interests, and it bears its fruits at all times 52 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,839 In war and peace, there is a stage of weakness and strength 53 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:49,839 Unlike that malicious tree that has no roots or roots 54 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:55,839 As soon as the first turmoil came, it was uprooted from the earth 55 00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:00,000 You cannot be steadfast and steadfast 56 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:08,000 Do not be surprised, my Muslim brother, by the words and actions of some thinkers, leaders, and governments 57 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,100 Every vessel exudes what is in it 58 00:05:12,100 --> 00:05:16,100 The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said 59 00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:19,100 Actions are like a vessel 60 00:05:19,100 --> 00:05:22,100 If the bottom is good, the top is good 61 00:05:22,100 --> 00:05:26,100 If the bottom is spoiled, the top is spoiled 62 00:05:26,100 --> 00:05:31,160 Narrated by Ahmed and authenticated by our Sheikh Al-Albani in Al-Sahih 63 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,420 And the Almighty said 64 00:05:34,420 --> 00:05:39,420 A good country grows its vegetation with the permission of its Lord 65 00:05:39,420 --> 00:05:44,420 And he who is malicious does not come out except in distress 66 00:05:44,420 --> 00:05:51,420 Thus We convey the signs to a people who are grateful 67 00:05:51,420 --> 00:05:56,990 Since the true influence in the souls of the Companions was strong 68 00:05:56,990 --> 00:06:00,990 There was neither an innovator nor a misguided person among them 69 00:06:00,990 --> 00:06:04,990 Religion provided people with fresh fruit 70 00:06:04,990 --> 00:06:07,990 And it yielded good, ripe fruits 71 00:06:07,990 --> 00:06:14,990 From which people of all classes ate across time and place 72 00:06:14,990 --> 00:06:19,250 Sheikh al-Islam said in Minhaj al-Sunnah al-Nabawiyyah 73 00:06:19,250 --> 00:06:22,279 As for the caliphs and companions 74 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,279 Everything is good for Muslims until the Day of Resurrection 75 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:32,279 From faith, Islam, the Qur’an, science, knowledge and worship 76 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,279 Entering Paradise and being saved from Hell 77 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,279 Their victory over the infidels and the supremacy of the word of God 78 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,279 It is due to the blessing of what the Companions did 79 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,279 Those who have attained religion and strive in the path of God 80 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,339 Every believer believes in God 81 00:06:51,339 --> 00:06:57,339 The Companions, may God be pleased with them, have a favor upon him until the Day of Resurrection 82 00:06:57,339 --> 00:07:02,470 Consider these words with me with careful understanding and deep thought 83 00:07:02,470 --> 00:07:09,470 What the scholar Ibn Al-Qayyim said in his book Al-Mati' Al-Fawa'id 84 00:07:09,470 --> 00:07:15,730 Whoever wants his building to be tall must strengthen its foundation and its principles 85 00:07:15,730 --> 00:07:17,730 And take great care of him 86 00:07:17,730 --> 00:07:22,730 The structure is only as strong as its foundation 87 00:07:22,730 --> 00:07:27,759 Deeds and degrees are edifying and their foundation is faith 88 00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:32,759 And when the foundation is solid, the structure will be carried and lifted up by it 89 00:07:32,759 --> 00:07:37,759 If any of the structure is destroyed, it is easy to repair it 90 00:07:37,759 --> 00:07:43,819 If the foundation is not solid, the structure will not rise or be stable 91 00:07:43,819 --> 00:07:49,819 If anything from the foundation collapses, the structure collapses, or almost collapses 92 00:07:49,819 --> 00:07:54,920 The knowledgeable person's mission is to correct and establish the foundation 93 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,920 The ignorant person raises a building based on no basis 94 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,920 Soon his building will collapse 95 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,050 God Almighty said 96 00:08:05,050 --> 00:08:12,050 Is he who founded his building on fear of God and His approval better? 97 00:08:12,050 --> 00:08:21,050 He who founded his building on the brink of a hot cliff 98 00:08:21,050 --> 00:08:28,050 And he collapsed into the fire of hell 99 00:08:28,050 --> 00:08:34,049 And God does not guide the unjust people 100 00:08:34,049 --> 00:08:38,690 Charcoal your structure on the strength of the foundation of faith 101 00:08:38,690 --> 00:08:42,690 If something is scattered from the tops and roof of the building 102 00:08:42,690 --> 00:08:47,690 It was easier for you to correct it than destroying the foundation 103 00:08:47,690 --> 00:08:50,690 This is based on two things 104 00:08:50,690 --> 00:08:57,690 The first is correct knowledge of God, His command, His names, and His attributes 105 00:08:57,690 --> 00:09:03,690 The second is an abstraction of submission to Him and His Messenger to the exclusion of anything else 106 00:09:03,690 --> 00:09:08,980 This is the most solid foundation upon which the servant can build his structure 107 00:09:08,980 --> 00:09:13,009 According to him, he can build whatever he wants 108 00:09:13,009 --> 00:09:16,009 His words ended, may God have mercy on him 109 00:09:16,009 --> 00:09:19,259 So look, may God have mercy on me and you 110 00:09:19,259 --> 00:09:23,259 With your insight and insight into the reality of Muslims today 111 00:09:23,259 --> 00:09:27,259 You find collapses in Islamic work 112 00:09:27,259 --> 00:09:30,259 Then you realize a bitter truth 113 00:09:30,259 --> 00:09:38,259 It is that this work was not based on fear of God and approval of the texts of revelation 114 00:09:38,259 --> 00:09:42,259 The preferred jurisprudence of the imams of the centuries in religion 115 00:09:43,620 --> 00:09:46,620 Milestones on the path to stability
