WEBVTT 00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:05.900 Summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah 00:00:05.900 --> 00:00:10.939 Judaism 00:00:10.939 --> 00:00:15.539 The name "Jew" is derived from "al-Hūd" 00:00:15.539 --> 00:00:18.859 Which linguistically means returning and coming back. 00:00:18.859 --> 00:00:22.899 And it refers to returning to Allah, the Exalted. 00:00:22.899 --> 00:00:25.339 And among this is His saying, Glorified and Exalted be He: 00:00:25.339 --> 00:00:27.980 "Indeed, we have turned to You." 00:00:28.300 --> 00:00:32.899 The Jews were followers of the Prophet of Allah, Moses, peace be upon him, in his time. 00:00:33.060 --> 00:00:35.259 They were monotheistic Muslims, 00:00:35.259 --> 00:00:39.579 like all followers of the prophets throughout the ages. 00:00:39.579 --> 00:00:46.500 As for the Jews after the mission of Jesus, peace be upon him, and after him, Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:49.380 those who did not believe in either of them, 00:00:49.380 --> 00:00:50.859 they are disbelievers. 00:00:50.859 --> 00:00:55.140 And they are specifically singled out with the rulings of dealing with the People of the Book. 00:00:55.140 --> 00:00:58.780 The Jews in the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 00:00:58.780 --> 00:01:01.340 were in Medina. 00:01:01.380 --> 00:01:06.340 And only a few of them believed in him, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 00:01:06.340 --> 00:01:10.060 The rest remained following the corrupted Torah 00:01:10.060 --> 00:01:12.540 and the corrupted interpretations of the rabbis, 00:01:12.540 --> 00:01:17.260 and those who concealed the truth about Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 00:01:17.260 --> 00:01:20.700 despite knowing him with complete certainty. 00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:22.859 As Allah, the Almighty, said: 00:01:22.859 --> 00:01:29.500 "Those to whom We gave the Book recognize it as they recognize their own sons." 00:01:29.540 --> 00:01:35.129 “Those unto whom We gave the Scripture recognise (this revelation) as they recognise their sons. But lo! a party of them knowingly conceal the truth.” (2:146) 00:01:35.129 --> 00:01:38.010 And the hypocrites were their confidants, 00:01:38.010 --> 00:01:41.319 seeking refuge with them and supporting them. 00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:46.519 And after the Jews' betrayal of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and the Muslims, 00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:49.599 the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, expelled some of them, 00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:52.480 Banu al-Nadir and Banu Qaynuqa'. 00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:56.760 And he fought Banu Qurayza until they submitted to his judgment. 00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:02.000 So he killed their fighters and took their women captive as a result of their betrayal. 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:05.200 Those Jews who were expelled went to Khaybar. 00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:08.840 And they remained there until they were expelled from it to Syria 00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:12.159 by 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him. 00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:15.159 And Europe, Christian Europe, fought them. 00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.960 And they found no refuge except in the lands of the Muslims, 00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:22.360 who treated them as People of the Book, 00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:26.800 with justice and fairness, as protected non-Muslims (Ahl al-Dhimmah). 00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:30.479 And Jews, in general, are people of corruption on earth 00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.599 and disobedience to the Lord, as Allah, the Almighty, said: 00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:38.840 “The Jews say: Allah's hand is fettered. Their hands are fettered and they are accursed for saying so. Nay, but both His hands are spread out wide in bounty. He bestoweth as He will. That which hath been revealed unto thee from thy Lord is certain to increase the contumacy and disbelief of many of them, and We have cast among them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection. As often as they light a fire for war, Allah extinguisheth it. Their effort is for corruption in the land, and Allah loveth not corrupters.” (5:64) 00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:41.479 "And they spread corruption on earth." 00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:44.840 “The Jews say: Allah's hand is fettered. Their hands are fettered and they are accursed for saying so. Nay, but both His hands are spread out wide in bounty. He bestoweth as He will. That which hath been revealed unto thee from thy Lord is certain to increase the contumacy and disbelief of many of them, and We have cast among them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection. As often as they light a fire for war, Allah extinguisheth it. Their effort is for corruption in the land, and Allah loveth not corrupters.” (5:64) 00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:48.680 And many of them harmed the Prophet of Allah, Moses, peace be upon him, 00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:53.120 in his time and disobeyed him, as Allah, the Almighty, said: 00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:58.400 "O you who have believed, do not be like those who harmed Moses." 00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:01.680 “O ye who believe! Be not as those who slandered Moses, but Allah proved his innocence of that which they alleged, and he was well esteemed in Allah's sight.” (33:69) 00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:05.129 “O ye who believe! Be not as those who slandered Moses, but Allah proved his innocence of that which they alleged, and he was well esteemed in Allah's sight.” (33:69) 00:03:05.129 --> 00:03:07.490 And after Moses, peace be upon him, 00:03:07.490 --> 00:03:09.810 they continued to be corrupt on earth, 00:03:09.810 --> 00:03:14.729 and they killed the prophets of Allah, Zechariah and John, peace be upon them. 00:03:14.729 --> 00:03:18.889 And Allah subjected them to humiliation throughout their history. 00:03:18.889 --> 00:03:21.449 Until, by His wisdom, Glorified and Exalted be He, 00:03:21.449 --> 00:03:27.250 they were able to establish themselves in recent decades to occupy Palestine and Jerusalem. 00:03:27.250 --> 00:03:31.210 And Allah, Glorified and Exalted be He, gathered them from their dispersion on earth 00:03:31.210 --> 00:03:37.090 so that He might enact His final decree against them, their annihilation and their eradication at the end of time, 00:03:37.090 --> 00:03:40.610 at the hands of the victorious group of Muslims, 00:03:40.610 --> 00:03:44.490 as the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, informed us. 00:03:44.490 --> 00:03:50.569 And perhaps this is what is meant by Allah's saying at the end of Surah Al-Isra: 00:03:50.610 --> 00:03:55.810 "And We said after him to the Children of Israel, 'Inhabit the land.'" 00:03:55.810 --> 00:04:01.580 “And We said unto the Children of Israel after him: Dwell in the land; but when the promise of the Hereafter cometh to pass We shall bring you as a crowd gathered out of various nations.” (17:104) 00:04:01.580 --> 00:04:05.620 Among the Jewish sects is a group called the Isawiyyah, 00:04:05.620 --> 00:04:08.500 named after Abu 'Isa al-Isfahani, 00:04:08.500 --> 00:04:10.860 who appeared in the land of Persia 00:04:10.860 --> 00:04:13.219 in the second Hijri century. 00:04:13.219 --> 00:04:16.459 They claimed miracles and signs for him, 00:04:16.459 --> 00:04:19.420 and many Jews followed him. 00:04:19.459 --> 00:04:21.379 And among their beliefs was 00:04:21.379 --> 00:04:24.139 that Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 00:04:24.139 --> 00:04:26.139 and Jesus, peace be upon him, 00:04:26.139 --> 00:04:29.220 were only sent to their own people. 00:04:29.220 --> 00:04:33.339 And they were not sent to abrogate the law of Moses, peace be upon him. 00:04:33.339 --> 00:04:36.100 And that is a claim that is easily refuted, 00:04:36.100 --> 00:04:40.740 as it necessitates their belief in the truthfulness of those whose prophethood they have acknowledged, 00:04:40.740 --> 00:04:43.860 and the prophethood of Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 00:04:43.860 --> 00:04:47.100 For in the saying of Allah, the Almighty, it is stated: 00:04:47.100 --> 00:04:52.300 “And We have not sent thee (O Muhammad) save as a bringer of good tidings and a warner unto all mankind; but most of mankind know not.” (34:28) 00:04:52.300 --> 00:04:53.540 And His saying: 00:04:53.540 --> 00:04:57.980 “We sent thee not save as a mercy for the peoples.” (21:107) 00:04:57.980 --> 00:05:03.740 And the news of his invitation to Khosrow, Caesar, and all the kings of Persia has been transmitted with certainty. 00:05:03.740 --> 00:05:07.180 So their claim is impossible and contradictory.
