In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
0:04
The life of the predecessors between words and deeds
0:11
Humility and condemnation of arrogance
0:16
Omar, may God be pleased with him, went out on a hot day
0:19
He put his robe on his head
0:22
He said
0:24
Then a boy passed by him on a donkey
0:27
And he said
0:28
Boy, carry me with you
0:31
He said
0:33
The boy jumped off the donkey
0:35
And he said
0:36
Ride, O Commander of the Faithful
0:39
He said
0:40
No
0:41
Ride
0:42
And I ride behind you
0:45
You want to take me to the rough place?
0:48
And ride on the low place
0:51
But you ride
0:52
And I will be behind you
0:55
He said
0:56
So he entered the city with him behind him
0:59
And people look at him
1:02
And when he, may God be pleased with him, came to Syria
1:05
I offered him a ford
1:08
Any place with shallow water
1:10
People enter it on foot or riding
1:14
So he got off his camel
1:15
And he took his pieces
1:17
And he took off his miter
1:19
So he took them with his hands and waded into the water
1:22
Abu Ubaida, may God be pleased with him, said
1:26
Today I did a great deed to the people of the land
1:30
Omar sighed in his chest and said
1:33
If someone else says this
1:36
You were the least of people, the most humiliated, and the weakest of people
1:42
May God bless you with Islam
1:45
No matter how much you seek glory in anything else, it will humiliate you
1:49
He said, may God be pleased with him, on the pulpit
1:53
If a servant humbles himself before God, God will elevate his wisdom
1:58
In himself, he is young or poor
2:01
And in people's souls it is great
2:04
If a servant is arrogant and out of character
2:07
God placed it
2:09
He is big in himself and small in people's eyes
2:14
He is even more despicable and smaller in people's eyes than a pig
2:20
On the authority of Abu Al-Minhal, may God have mercy on him, he said:
2:23
I asked Al-Baraa bin Azib and Zaid bin Arqam, may God be pleased with them, about morphology
2:29
Each one of them says this is better than me
2:35
Utbah bin Ghazwan, may God be pleased with him, said
2:39
I seek refuge in God to be great in myself
2:43
And God is small
2:46
Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, came to the market
2:50
He carries a bundle of firewood
2:53
At that time, he was Marwan's successor
2:56
He said, “The best way is for the prince.”
3:00
Abdullah bin Masoud, may God be pleased with him, went out one day
3:05
So people followed him
3:07
He said to them, “Do you need anything?”
3:10
They said no
3:12
But we wanted to walk with you
3:15
He said go back
3:17
It is humiliation for the follower and temptation for the followed
3:22
He said, may God be pleased with him
3:25
Whoever is arrogant, you will exhort him whom God will lower
3:28
He who humbles himself out of humility
3:31
God Almighty raised him
3:34
On the authority of Aisha, may God be pleased with her, she said
3:38
You neglect the best worship
3:41
Humility
3:43
A man said to Ibn Omar, may God be pleased with him
3:47
O best of people and son of the best of people
3:50
And he said
3:51
I am not the best of people and I am not the son of the best of people
3:55
But I am a servant of God
3:58
I hope and fear God
4:01
By God, you will not deviate from the man until you destroy him
4:06
A man came to him and asked him about his homework
4:09
And he said to him
4:11
Eti Saeed bin Jubair
4:13
He knows the account better than me
4:17
On the authority of Mujahid he said:
4:20
I accompanied Ibn Omar, may God be pleased with him
4:22
And I want to serve him
4:25
So he served me
4:28
On the authority of Ibn Abbas, may God be pleased with them both, he said
4:32
I was reading men who were immigrants
4:35
Among them is Abdul Rahman bin Awf
4:39
Ibn al-Jawzi, may God have mercy on him, said
4:41
It is a warning to take knowledge from its people
4:45
Even if their teeth are small
4:47
Or their destinies were less
4:49
He was Hakim bin Hizam
4:51
It is read to Muadh bin Jabal, may God be pleased with them both
4:56
So he was told
4:57
Read about this Khazraji boy
5:01
And he said
5:02
We have only destroyed arrogance
5:05
Some of the predecessors, may God have mercy on him
5:08
He buys something from the market and carries it
5:11
It is said
5:12
Let us carry it
5:14
He refuses and says
5:16
He does not like arrogant people
5:21
Al-Rabi’ bin Khathim, may God have mercy on him
5:24
He sweeps the lawn himself
5:26
So he was told
5:28
You are enough of this
5:30
He said
5:31
I like to do my part in the profession
5:36
When Omar bin Abdul Aziz was buried, may God have mercy on him, Suleiman bin Abdul Malik
5:42
And he came out of his grave
5:44
He heard the earth rumbling or shaking
5:47
And he said
5:49
What is this?
5:50
So it was said
5:51
These are the ships of the Caliphate, O Commander of the Faithful
5:55
It comes close to you so you can ride it
5:58
And he said
6:00
What is mine and hers?
6:01
About me
6:03
Bring my mule closer to me
6:06
Then his mule approached him and he mounted it
6:10
Then the policeman's companion came to him, carrying the war in front of him
6:15
And he said
6:16
Step aside from me
6:17
What do you and I have?
6:19
But I am a Muslim man
6:23
On the authority of Abdul Aziz bin Omar, he said:
6:26
Raja bin Haywa told me
6:29
How perfect is your father's chivalry
6:31
I was nailed to him
6:33
Then the lamp came
6:35
And next to him is Waseef Al-Nam
6:38
I said
6:39
Should I not warn?
6:41
He said no
6:42
Let
6:43
I said
6:44
I'm getting up
6:46
He said
6:47
No
6:48
It is not honorable for a man to use a female guest
6:52
So he went to the oil pan and fixed the lamp
6:56
Then he came back
6:57
And he said
6:59
I rose and I was Omar bin Abdul Aziz
7:02
And I came back as Omar bin Abdul Aziz
7:06
He also said, may God have mercy on him
7:08
Whose sin was in lust
7:11
Please ask him to repent
7:13
Adam disobeyed out of desire
7:16
So he forgave him
7:17
If his disobedience is arrogant
7:20
I fear that its owner will be cursed
7:23
If Satan disobeyed and was arrogant, he was cursed
7:28
Aoun bin Abdullah, may God have mercy on him, said
7:32
Enough of your arrogance
7:34
To see you as superior to someone below you
7:38
It has been said
7:39
Who is arrogant in his guardianship?
7:42
Humiliated in his isolation
7:45
Ayoubni Al-Sakhtiani, may God have mercy on him, said
7:48
People want to rise
7:52
God refuses to do anything but place them
7:55
Others want to be humble
7:58
God refuses to raise them
8:03
He was Khalil bin Ahmed, may God have mercy on him
8:06
If it benefits someone
8:09
He did not see it as being useful to him
8:11
Where did anyone benefit from anything?
8:14
I think he benefited from it
8:18
On the authority of Ubaid bin Junad, he said:
8:21
I have never seen anyone like Bin Al-Mubarak, may God have mercy on him
8:25
If he mentions his companions, how noble they are
8:28
He says where is like so-and-so
8:32
He saw Saeed bin Jubair, may God have mercy on him
8:35
People follow
8:37
He forbade them and said
8:39
This problem is humiliating for the follower
8:43
And a trial for the follower
8:46
Yusuf bin Asbat, may God have mercy on him, was asked
8:49
How humble
8:52
He said not to meet anyone
8:55
Unless you see that he has the advantage over you
8:59
On the authority of Al-Shafi’i, may God have mercy on him, he said:
9:02
Humility is one of the morals of honorable people
9:05
Arrogance is a trait of meanness
9:08
Humility begets love
9:11
Contentment brings comfort
9:13
And he said
9:15
I hold people in high esteem
9:17
Who does not see destiny
9:19
And most of them are good
9:21
Who does not see his virtue?
9:24
Yahya bin Ma'in said
9:26
I have never seen anyone like Ahmed bin Hanbal, may God have mercy on him
9:30
We accompanied him for fifty years
9:32
We are proud of something
9:34
Which was good
9:38
Ahmed bin Al-Hasan Al-Tirmidhi, may God have mercy on him, said
9:42
I saw Imam Ahmed, may God have mercy on him
9:44
He buys bread from the market
9:47
He carries himself in the dungeon
9:50
I saw him buy bakla more than once
9:54
And put it in a bowl or something else
9:58
He carries him while holding the hand of Abdullah, his son
10:02
Saleh said
10:04
My father might have gone out to the grocery store
10:08
He buys a bundle of firewood and carries it
10:12
Al-Fudayl Ibn Iyad, may God have mercy on him, was asked about humility
10:16
And he said
10:18
He submits to the truth and submits to it
10:20
And he accepts it from whomever he says
10:24
Some of them said
10:26
Do not despise a person because of it
10:30
And I am the God of the worlds, and you do not know
10:34
The one who has destiny in the sight of God is afraid of falling behind
10:38
The Night of Decree was also hidden from their knowledge
