Which was revealed in
Makkah:-
In the Name of Allah, the
Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
(1. Have you seen him who
denies Ad-Din) (2. That is he who repulses the orphan,) (3. And urges not the
feeding of Al-Miskin.) (4. So, woe unto those performers of Salah,) (5. Those
who with their Salah are Sahun.) (6. Those who do good deeds only to be seen,)
(7. And withhold Al-Ma`un.)
Al-Maa'oon, Allah says, O
Muhammad! Have you seen the one ...:-
Allah says, O Muhammad! Have
you seen the one who denies the Din''
Here the word Din means the
Hereafter, the Recompense and the Final Reward.
(That is he who repulses the
orphan, ) meaning, he is the one who oppresses the orphan and does not give him
his just due. He does not feed him, nor is he kind to him.
(And urges not the feeding of
Al-Miskin.) This is as Allah says,
(Nay! But you treat not the
orphans with kindness and generosity! And urge not one another on the feeding
of Al-Miskin!) (89:17-18) meaning, the poor man who has nothing to sustain him
and suffice his needs. Then Allah says,
(So, woe unto those
performers of Salah, those who with their Salah are Sahun.) Ibn `Abbas and
others have said, "This means the hypocrites who pray in public but do not
pray in private.'' Thus, Allah says,
(unto those performers of
Salah,) They are those people who pray and adhere to the prayer, yet they are
mindless of it. This may either be referring to its act entirely, as Ibn `Abbas
said, or it may be referring to performing it in its stipulated time that has
been legislated Islamically. This means that the person prays it completely
outside of its time.
Al-Maa'oon, This was said by
Masruq and Abu Ad-Duha.
`Ata' bin Dinar said,
"All praise is due to Allah, the One Who said,
(with their Salah are Sahun.)
and He did not say, `those who are absent minded in their prayer.''' It could
also mean the first time of the prayer, which means they always delay it until
the end of its time, or they usually do so. It may also refer to not fulfilling
its pillars and conditions, and in the required manner. It could also mean
performing it with humility and contemplation of its meanings. The wording of
the Ayah comprises all of these meanings. However, whoever has any
characteristic of this that we have mentioned then a portion of this Ayah
applies to him. And whoever has all of these characteristics, then he has
completed his share of this Ayah, and the hypocrisy of actions is fulfilled in
him. This is just as is confirmed in the Two Sahihs that the Messenger of Allah
said,
(This is the prayer of the
hypocrite, this is the prayer of the hypocrite, this is the prayer of the
hypocrite. He sits watching the sun until it is between the two horns of
Shaytan. Then he stands and pecks four (Rak`ahs) and he does not remember Allah
(in them) except very little.) This Hadith is describing the end of the time
for the `Asr prayer, which is the middle prayer as is confirmed by a text
(Hadith). This is the time in which it is disliked to pray. Then this person
stands to pray it, pecking in it like the pecking of a crow. He does not have
tranquility or humility in it at all. Thus, the Prophet said,
(He does not remember Allah
(in them) except very little.) He probably only stands to pray it so that the
people will see him praying, and not seeking the Face of Allah. This is just as
if he did not pray at all. Allah says,
(Verily, the hypocrites seek
to deceive Allah, but it is He Who deceives them. And when they stand up with
laziness and to be seen of men, and they do not remember Allah but little.)
(4:142) and Allah says here,
(Those who do good deeds only
to be seen,) Imam Ahmad recorded from `Amr bin Murrah that he said, "We
were sitting with Abu `Ubaydah when the people mentioned showing-off. A man
known as Abu Yazid said, "I heard `Abdullah bin `Amr saying that the Messenger
of Allah said,
(Whoever tries to make the
people hear of his deed, Allah, the One Who hears His creation, will hear it
and make him despised and degraded.)'' from what is related to his statement,
(Those who do good deeds only
to be seen.) is that whoever does a deed solely for Allah, but the people come
to know about it, and he is pleased with that, then this is not considered
showing off. Allah said:
(And withhold Al-Ma`un.) This
means that they do not worship their Lord well, nor do they treat His creation
well. They do not even lend that which others may benefit from and be helped
by, even though the object will remain intact and be returned to them. These
people are even stingier when it comes to giving Zakah and different types of
charity that bring one closer to Allah. Al-Mas`udi narrated from Salamah bin
Kuhayl who reported from Abu Al-`Ubaydin that he asked Ibn Mas`ud about
Al-Ma`un and he said, "It is what the people give to each other, like an
axe, a pot, a bucket and similar items.'' This is the end of the Tafsir of
Surat Al-Ma`un, and all praise and thanks are due to Allah.
Assalamu alaikum
warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu
Alhamdulillah....We praise
Allah,we seek his aid and we seek his forgiveness.
We seek refuge in Allah from
the evil of ourselves and the evil of our deeds.
Who ever Allah guides none
can misguide,and whomsoever Allah allows to be led astray,none can be guide
I bear witness that there is no one worthy of
worship except Allah Ta aala the exalted, and that Mohameed,the son of Abdullah(Peace
and blessings be upon him) is his last messenger and slave.
I'm indeed honored and
humbled to be called upon amidst my scholars and esteemed colleague students of
knowledge to share the little Allah has blessed us with.The proposed topic for
tonight is :
CHOOSING THE RIGHT SPOUSE*.Insha Allah
We ask Allah to grant us the
maximum benefit of our discussion, and save us from any fitna that comes with
it...
Frankly speaking, the topic
is too broad to an extend that I can't possible do justice in explaining it
into details but insha Allah I will try my possible best.Insha Allah.
My Allah give us perfect
understanding of Deen.
Prophet Mohammed (S.A.W)
says: "A woman is normally sought as a wife for her beauty,her wealth,
her nobility, or her deen(religiousness).So choose a religious woman and you
will prosper"
"When someone with
whose religion and character you are satisfied or pleased with,Asks to marry
your daughter, agree to his request. if you do not,there will be corruption and
great evil on earth"
But now women are looking for
men pocket before they will accept to marry them and
men are also looking for beauty.
When choosing a spouse,the
hadith says there, are several things people look at,some people look at
Wealth
Beauty(Al Jamal)
Status of the person (All
hasab)
Lineage of the person(Al
nasab)
Religion (Deen of the
person)
Some people don't understand
this narration when the narration says: Become successful by selecting the one
with religion, with character and conduct coupled with seen.
One narration,the
prophet(S.A.W) says: when a proposal comes from someone whom you are satisfied
with their level of character and conduct or in fact starting with the level of
deen and character then allow them to get married.
You are looking at two things
Character and deen .which means that if the character is good and the seen
level is equivalent to yours then you stand a better chance for your daughter
to be in a home of where she will be happy.Plzzz get them married.
So why is it that when it
comes to Wealth and looks I mean good looks* and so on some people think that
in Islam we don't look at looks as it
is,the women are supposed to be covered so don't look at looks.πππ
Let me tell you that is wrong.
The hadith didn't say *"Do
not look at looks*".The hadith is saying when you see all the points you
want to see but give tip of the scale to the deen.Which means if u have
someone who is drop dead gorgeous and they don't have the deen in them and
then you have someone who hasn't yet.You knw,killed you,you knw what "drop
dead" means you die.π
The hadith is saying when u
see all the points you want to see give the tip of the scale to the deen.
Which means if you hv someone
who is drop gorgeous and they don't have deen in them and then u have someone
who hasn't yet.You know killed you,you knw what I mean drop dead means u dieπ.
So if someone comes and they
good lookin, ok dey have a better deen in them it it better for u to compromise
the looks to a certain extend and make sure that the religion is intact than to
go for looks bcos the plan of Allah is there will come a stage when that
blemishes face will develop wrinkles if
u love that outward face
I have come across many
people who told me "I prefer big women"
"i prefer slim women
"i prefer tall
men" and so lot of things.
May Allah Subhanahu wata aala
beautify our women for our men.I'm not talking of all men but i'm talking about
the *husbans*.Insha Allah
May Allah grant us good
homes.
May Allah beautify the men as
well and the beauty of a man is more in his character and conduct than anthing
else.
Believe me if u have a man
who is mediocre looking and his character is brilliant ,he attract much more
than a person whose character stinks sorry to use that word .
So letz go back to our point
when we are choosing a spouse we can look at health
Or sorry we can look at
wealth and various other things jxt that mentioned health
If those come without the
religion we'd rather stay away that's wat Islam teaches us.
Surah An Nur Ayah 23-26.
