0:00 May peace and blessings be upon our 0:03 master, the Great Prophet Muhammad, his 0:06 family, his companions, and his 0:09 followers. Praise be to Allah, this 0:12 Sunday morning study session will be 0:16 filled with the theme of knowing Allah 0:19 and knowing the Messenger of Allah. 0:23 This is an study of Ahlusunnah wal 0:25 Jamaah creed from the book*Jalaul Afham 0:27 , Syarah Aqidatul Awam*. Which, God 0:31 willing, will be delivered by our 0:33 teacher, Ustaz Sayid Husnul Hikam. And 0:37 our study, as usual this Sunday morning 0:41 , will involve an Islamic discussion 0:44 topic. So, the congregants or viewers 0:50 following this study this morning can 0:53 participate in the discussion, ask 0:57 questions, or share anything related to 1:01 the topic we are discussing. So, we can 1:05 interact by posing a few questions or 1:09 raising any concerns that the 1:12 congregants may have. We will allocate 1:17 time for the lecture until 6:00, and 1:21 then we will have about 13 minutes for 1:25 a question and answer session. 1:31 Furthermore, I hand over the time to 1:33 the Ustaz. Please, Ustaz. 1:35 Thank you. Peace be upon you, and 1:38 Allah's mercy and blessings. 1:44 Praise be to Allah, praise be to Allah 1:47 who has made us part of the saved sect, 1:49 the Ahlusunnah wal Jamaah. Peace and 1:54 blessings be upon the best of creation, 1:56 his family, his companions, and those 1:58 who follow him. To proceed. 2:03 Alhamdulillah, all praise is due to 2:04 Allah. We can gather and remain 2:09 steadfast in seeking knowledge. Yes, as 2:12 commanded by our Prophet, seeking 2:15 knowledge is an obligation upon every 2:18 Muslim. That is popular, isn't it? 2:20 Seeking knowledge is mandatory. The 2:23 point we must understand is "seeking" 2:25 knowledge, not "obtaining" knowledge. 2:28 Meaning it is not about understanding 2:30 the knowledge, no. We are studying like 2:32 this; whether you understand it or not, 2:33 it is fine. Because what the Prophet 2:35 commanded is*tholabul ilmi*, seeking 2:37 knowledge. So, Alhamdulillah, we are 2:40 all still given the blessing to 2:41 continue seeking knowledge. Yes. 2:46 Alright. Before we begin, let's get to 2:49 know each other first. Alright. My name 2:54 is Sayid Husnul Hikam. But please 2:57 forgive me, I am not a descendant of 2:58 the Messenger of Allah. I am not. It 3:01 just so happens my name is Sayid. It 3:03 just happens that my name is Sayid. Now 3:04 , people usually call me Hikam. I used 3:09 to study at the Almawaddah Islamic 3:11 Boarding School in Ciganjur, South 3:12 Jakarta. Led by K.H. Abdullah Hasani, 3:16 and K.H. Abdullah Hasani was a student 3:18 of K. Syukron Makmun. After that, I 3:21 continued my undergraduate studies at 3:24 the Assiddiqiyah Islamic Boarding 3:26 School under the late K.H. Nur Muhammad 3:28 Iskandar SQ at Mahad Ali Assiddiqiyah. 3:33 Now, besides that academic journey, 3:35 Alhamdulillah, I have also studied at 3:38 several boarding schools in the Bogor 3:41 area, and also in Central Java, 3:43 specifically in Sarang, Rembang. The 3:47 late K.H. Maimun Zubair. And also in 3:51 Lirboyo, with K.H. Anwar Mansur, for my 3:55 intellectual journey. But academically, 3:58 I was in South Jakarta at Almawaddah, 4:01 then continued at Assiddiqiyah. Okay. 4:08 Our discussion this time is knowing 4:10 Allah and knowing the Messenger of 4:13 Allah. A study of the Ahlusunnah wal 4:16 Jamaah creed. It is important for us to 4:22 know that this creed study is a study 4:26 of*tawhid*(the oneness of God). What is 4:31 the history like? Well, I will 4:33 summarize the history because it is too 4:35 long to tell in full. When did Islamic 4:39 beliefs or creeds begin? Let's just 4:41 summarize the creed. This creed is the 4:43 belief of the Muslim community. When 4:45 was the first time these Muslim beliefs 4:48 split? Well, the first division in 4:54 Muslim beliefs occurred when the great 4:56 Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, 4:59 passed away; there were already two 5:01 factions, sir. There were already two 5:04 factions at that time. When he, peace 5:06 be upon him, passed away, there was the 5:08 faction of Abu Bakr Siddiq, Umar bin 5:10 Khattab, and others, and the faction of 5:12 Sayyidina Ali. Because when he passed 5:15 away, Sayyidina Ali was not there. 5:18 Sayyidina Ali was not at the location. 5:20 So, that is where it started to split. 5:23 Later, in jurisprudence terms, that is 5:26 called a "kiamat sugro," or a minor 5:28 apocalypse. So, there will be a minor 5:31 apocalypse and a major apocalypse. When 5:33 does the minor apocalypse begin? The 5:34 minor apocalypse began when Sayyidina 5:37 Muhammad passed away. A minor 5:38 apocalypse. When is the major 5:39 apocalypse? That will be at the end of 5:41 time. And we are actually at the end of 5:44 time now. Just be prepared. Starting 5:49 from the passing of Sayyidina Muhammad, 5:50 followed by the generation of the four 5:52 Caliphs: Sayyidina Abu Bakr, Sayyidina 5:54 Umar, Sayyidina Uthman, and Sayyidina 5:56 Ali. With Sayyidina Ali, it split again 6:00 . It split again. Later there was 6:03 Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan versus 6:06 Sayyidina Ali. In history, that is 6:08 called the Battle of the Camel. Well, 6:12 basically, Islam became fragmented. The 6:14 beliefs became fragmented. Long before 6:18 this division of the Muslim community, 6:21 the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him 6:24 , said, "Umati ala salasin wa firqah." 6:30 Later, my Ummah, said Prophet Muhammad, 6:32 will split into 73 sects. So, long 6:36 before he passed away, he had already 6:38 said that, "My community will split 6:41 into 73 sects." Then the Prophet said, 6:45 "Of these 73 sects, only one will be 6:48 saved." Only one. The companions asked, 6:52 "Who, O Messenger of Allah, is the one 6:53 sect that will be saved?""The one sect 6:56 that will enter paradise?" Then Prophet 6:59 Muhammad said, "Uh, wa hiya al-jama'ah. 7:03 " Prophet Muhammad said, it is the 7:05 al-jama'ah. In another narration, it is 7:08 said that it is "ma ana alaihi wa 7:11 ashabi." Those who hold fast to my 7:14 sunnah and my companions. Which is 7:18 later interpreted further by scholars 7:20 to derive the term Ahlus-Sunnah 7:23 wal-Jama'ah. That is it. Now, it also 7:29 needs to be understood before we go too 7:31 far into discussing what Ahlus-Sunnah 7:33 wal-Jama'ah actually is. Are they those 7:36 who follow the Nahdlatul Ulama path? 7:39 Are they those who follow the 7:41 Muhammadiyah path? Or are they those 7:43 who follow any school of thought? 7:45 Because in Indonesia, what's popular 7:47 are NU and Muhammadiyah. Ahlus-Sunnah 7:51 wal-Jama'ah is not NU. Ahlus-Sunnah 7:55 wal-Jama'ah is not Muhammadiyah, but 7:57 Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama are 7:59 parts of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah. So, 8:03 in that hadith, only one is saved: 8:05 Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah. Every sect 8:07 and group claims to be Ahlus-Sunnah 8:10 wal-Jama'ah. This is important. Every 8:13 group claims to be Ahlus-Sunnah 8:14 wal-Jama'ah. Okay. What is Ahlusunah 8:22 wal jamaah actually? If we open the 8:25 scholars 'books, there are many 8:26 definitions. But I summarize that 8:30 Ahlusunah, "ahlu" means family in 8:33 Arabic. Family. The Ahlusunah group 8:38 means the Sunnah group. But Sunnah here 8:42 is not the one defined by usul fiqh 8:44 experts as "rewarded if done, no sin if 8:47 left." Not that those who do it get 8:50 rewards, and leaving it is fine. Not 8:52 that. But Ahlusunah or the Sunnah group 8:56 here are those who follow Prophet 8:59 Muhammad. Yes, those who follow the 9:02 Sunnahs practiced by Prophet Muhammad. 9:07 Now, what is the definition? "Attabiuna 9:10 lisunnati rasul." People who follow the 9:13 prophet. So, simply put, Ahlusunah are 9:17 people who follow the Prophet. Now, 9:21 what about the "jamaah" part? The 9:23 jamaah is the jamaah is they who are 9:35 Muslims that agree on a certain belief. 9:40 Meaning the right path, the right 9:42 understanding, is definitely the 9:44 majority. Not the minority, definitely 9:47 the majority. So, overall, Ahlusunah 9:51 wal jamaah are those who follow the 9:54 Prophet's Sunnah. And they uphold a 9:57 belief held by the majority of Muslims 10:00 in the world. It's as simple as that. 10:06 Ahlusunah wal jamaah. Now, before the 10:10 term Ahlusunah wal jamaah, it was 10:13 called Sunni. So, in history, what's 10:18 famous is Sunni and Shia. Sunni and 10:22 Shia are two beliefs, two creeds, two 10:25 faiths. Sunni and Shia have existed for 10:28 many years, Sunni and Shia. Then, from 10:31 this Shia, it later split into Shia 10:34 Rafidah and other Shias. And for Sunni, 10:38 there is also a new term, the term 10:40 Ahlusunah wal jamaah, which is Sunniyun 10:43 , or actually Ahlusunah. Okay. The 10:54 faith of Muslims. In Muslim faith, if 10:59 we know the term fiqh science, right? 11:03 So, each scientific discipline has its 11:07 own group, yes. Has its own group. So, 11:11 let's not go too far into theology yet. 11:14 The Quran recitation we read now. The 11:17 Quran recitation we read now has seven 11:20 groups usually called Qiraah Sab'ah. 11:24 These seven imams or seven groups have 11:26 different readings. In the Quran, 11:29 sometimes it's read "bismillahi majroha 11:31 wa mursaha." Then in other countries, 11:35 some read "bismillahi majreha wa 11:37 mursaha." Then there are also those who 11:41 read "wadduha wallaili idza saja." 11:45 There are things like that. So, in 11:47 reading the Quran alone, there are 11:49 seven styles of recitation. Each 11:53 country or specific group is different, 11:54 and the source is the same, from the 11:56 Messenger of Allah. Why can it be 11:59 different? Because it adapts to each 12:01 person's tongue. Adapting to the tongue 12:04 . Indian people might find it difficult 12:08 to pronounce certain sounds. Because 12:11 the Prophet, when teaching the Quran 12:13 recitation, looked at which country 12:14 they were from, their tongue, what 12:16 language they were fluent in, that 12:17 influenced it. That is in Quran 12:20 recitation. If we look at fiqh science, 12:23 there are four, right? Four schools of 12:25 thought (madhabs). Imam Abu Hanifah, 12:27 Imam Malik, Imam Syafi'i, Imam Ahmad 12:31 bin Hambal. Actually, this is rarely 12:34 explained, but there are actually five 12:37 popular schools of thought. There is 12:41 what is called the Jafari school or the 12:43 school of Imam Jafar bin Sadiq. Only 12:46 after that is the school of Imam Abu 12:48 Hanifah. This is recounted quite often 12:50 in history. Imam Abu Hanifah often met 12:53 with Imam Jafar Sadiq. But because 12:56 perhaps people are afraid of being 12:57 called Shia, they become afraid. They 12:59 are afraid to convey this. So back then 13:02 there were five schools of thought. 13:03 Jafari, Hanafiyah, Malikiyah, 13:08 Syafi'iyah, and Hanabilah, that makes 13:10 five. But only four still exist today. 13:16 Four schools that is in jurisprudence. 13:20 In jurisprudence, it is called a 13:21 madhhab. Earlier, in Quranic recitation 13:23 , it is called qiraat. Now, in terms of 13:26 belief, it is called aqidah or tawhid. 13:31 In the study of aqidah or tawhid, uh, 13:33 in the study of tawhid it is called 13:35 aqidah. Later, in the study of tasawwuf 13:38 , there is another one, sir; in 13:40 tasawwuf, it is called tariqa. So the 13:43 Qadiriyah tariqa follows Sheikh Abdul 13:45 Qadir Jailani. The Shadhiliyah tariqa 13:48 follows Imam Abul Hasan Ash-Shadhili. 13:50 Or the Alawiyah tariqa follows Imam 13:52 Abdullah bin Alwi Al-Haddad. So each 13:55 scientific discipline is further 13:58 divided. Anyway, we will focus on the 14:02 study of aqidah. This study of aqidah 14:06 is otherwise known as the study of 14:08 tawhid. Another term for the study of 14:12 tawhid is also ilm al-kalam, yes. There 14:15 are many terms, yes. But the popular 14:17 ones are the study of aqidah or the 14:18 study of tawhid. Now, the great imams 14:26 in tawhid who are followed by us, 14:29 Ahlusunnah wal Jamaah, are three. There 14:35 are three imams. The first is named 14:38 Imam at-Tahawi. Imam at-Tahawi. The 14:42 second is named Imam Abul Hasan 14:44 al-Ash'ari. Then the third is Imam Abu 14:49 Mansur Al-Maturidi. These are the three 14:52 scholars who shaped the beliefs of the 14:55 community at that time. Imam at-Tahawi 14:58 with his many books. The same goes for 15:01 Imam Abul Hasan al-Ash'ari. Each of 15:04 these three imams became major groups 15:07 at that time. Now, but the one that 15:12 exists in Indonesia is that we follow 15:14 the school of Imam Abul Hasan 15:16 al-Ash'ari. In those thick books on 15:21 aqidah, many divisions are explained. 15:28 One of the books on the aqidah of Imam 15:31 Abul Hasan al-Ash'ari is the book I 15:33 have in front of me now, called the 15:36 book of Akidatul Awam. If translated 15:41 into Indonesian, Akidatul Awam means 15:43 the beliefs of common people. So these 15:48 are things that common people must know 15:50 today. Okay, before we enter the 16:08 discussion this introduction is 16:13 important. So, the author of the book 16:16 Akidatul Awam. So, if we want to learn 16:20 something, it's good to know who the 16:23 author is first. When we want to study 16:27 the book Akidatul Awam, we should first 16:30 know who wrote the book Akidatul Awam, 16:32 right? It's just like if we see a nice 16:37 house, it's not good if we just walk 16:39 right in, just barge in. Especially if 16:42 you enter through the window, you might 16:43 be mistaken for a thief. So, whatever 16:46 the ethics or etiquette of studying any 16:48 book, we must first get to know who 16:50 this person is. Who wrote this book, 16:53 Akidatul Awam? All right. The author of 17:01 the book Akidatul Awam was a scholar 17:04 from Egypt. He was from Egypt. He then 17:09 moved to Makkah to become a teacher and 17:11 passed away there. His name is Sayid 17:15 Ahmad Marzuki. Yes, his name is Sheikh 17:18 Ahmad. Sayid Ahmad. Sayid Ahmad Marzuki 17:23 Almaliki Almakki. He resided in Makkah 17:26 for a long time until he passed away. 17:29 Now, how did he come to write this book 17:33 , Akidatul Awam? Perhaps some of the 17:38 gentlemen here have heard of this book, 17:40 Akidatul Awam. In the past, Jakarta had 17:45 two great lights; in fact, Jakarta was 17:49 a vessel for the noble Prophet Muhammad 17:53 , peace be upon him. In the past, 17:58 Jakarta had two lights. These two 18:00 lights are no longer with us now. First 18:03 , there was the Nurul Mustofa Assembly 18:06 led by Habib Hasan bin Jafar Assegaf. 18:09 Second, there was the Rasulullah 18:11 Assembly led by Habib Munzir bin Fuad 18:13 al-Musawa. Both of them led Jakarta to 18:16 love the Prophet Muhammad, peace be 18:18 upon him. Extraordinary. Now, in their 18:21 assemblies, this was surely recited. 18:26 Abda'u bismillahi warahmani wabirahimi 18:29 daimil ihsani. It is recited with a 18:36 hadrah tone, usually "abda'u bismillahi 18:39 warahmani wabirahimi daimil ihsani 18:42 alhamdulillahil awali alakil baqi 18:44 tahawuli." Now, that is usually read; 18:49 perhaps some of the gentlemen here have 18:52 also heard this nazam. Now, that is the 18:55 Akidatul Awam nazam. Now, we will 18:57 discuss that later. We will discuss 19:00 that. Now, what is the history behind 19:05 it? Well, this history is found in the 19:08 book Jalaul Afham. Now, this book, 19:14 Jalaul Afham, was written by Abuya 19:16 Almaliki, a person from Makkah, Abuya 19:20 Almaliki. Good. The history is Sheikh 19:28 Ahmad Marzuki, who wrote this book, 19:31 dreamed of meeting Prophet Muhammad, 19:33 peace be upon him. In that dream, 19:38 Prophet Muhammad said, "Compose a nazam 19:47 about the science of tawhid." That is 19:51 what the Prophet said, commanding 19:53 Sheikh Ahmad Marzuki. He fell silent. 19:56 Then he asked again, "How do I compose 19:59 a nazam of tawhid, O Messenger of Allah 20:02 ?" Now, beside him were the companions. 20:05 The companions said, "Wait, Sheikh, the 20:08 Messenger of Allah will tell you." 20:11 Finally, after a few seconds, the 20:13 Messenger of Allah said, "Abda'u 20:17 bismillahi warrahman wabirahimi daimil 20:21 ihsani." It was followed by Sheikh 20:24 Ahmad Marzuki. "Abda'u bis..." and so 20:27 on until the end, yes. Until the end. 20:30 Then, at that moment, he immediately 20:31 woke up from his sleep. He woke up from 20:34 his sleep. What the Messenger of Allah 20:37 said and what was repeated by Sheikh 20:39 Ahmad Marzuki was remembered, stuck in 20:41 his mind. Remembered, yes. Reminisced. 20:45 After performing the night prayer, he 20:46 slept again. He dreamed of meeting the 20:48 Messenger of Allah again. Now, in the 20:51 dream, he met the Messenger of Allah 20:52 again to recite his memorization. A 20:54 recitation of memorization. So, this 20:55 aqidah book was recited to the 20:57 Messenger of Allah. Sheikh Ahmad 20:59 Marzuki recited "abda'u bismillahi 21:01 warrahman" until the end. Finished 21:04 until the end, waking up from sleep, 21:06 the nazam that was read was still stuck 21:09 in his head. Finally, he wrote down " 21:12 abda'u bismillahi warahmani" until it 21:14 became a book. Until the book was named 21:17 Akidatul Awam. When this book was first 21:22 published, many people asked, where is 21:25 the reference for this? Because if we 21:29 write a scientific study or a book 21:32 nowadays, we need references, right? So 21:36 , he was asked where, where, where did 21:39 Sheikh Ahmad Marzuki get this knowledge 21:43 ? The scholars or the people at that 21:47 time asked questions like that. So he 21:51 answered and wrote it in a verse of 21:53 Aqidatul Awam. Wa ma ata bihir rasulu 21:57 fahaquhu taslimu wal qobulu. Everything 22:02 that comes here is from our great 22:05 Prophet Muhammad. It is appropriate for 22:08 us to accept it and practice it. Yes. 22:14 There is even a narration later, and 22:16 this narration, if we speak of a 22:17 narration, it is not a hadith. A 22:20 narration is a story, it is a story. 22:23 Whoever memorizes Aqidatul Awam, 22:25 dakhalal jannah, enters heaven. Well, 22:27 there is a narration like that. So if 22:32 asked in essence, fundamentally, whose 22:35 work is this Aqidatul Awam book? 22:38 Directly. This is the work of the 22:40 Prophet Muhammad directly. Directly 22:43 because the Prophet Muhammad dictated 22:47 it to Sayyid Ahmad Marzuki. Sayyid 22:50 Ahmad Marzuki memorized it and then 22:51 wrote it down. There are many histories 22:54 of books like that. Many, many. That is 22:58 why this book has extraordinary 22:59 blessings and is still read everywhere 23:01 today. Well. Okay, what time is it? 23:18 Okay, bismillahirrahmanirrahim. We 23:20 enter the introduction. Abda'u 23:22 bismillahi war-rahmani wa bir-rahimi 23:25 da'imil ihsani fal-hamdu lillahil 23:28 qodimil awali al-akiril baqi bila 23:31 tahawwuli was-salamu' alan-nabiyyi 23:34 khairi khalqi wa alihi wa sohbihi wa 23:37 man tabi 'sabilad-dinil haqqi ghoiro 23:40 mubtadi. Well, if we translate it 23:46 easily, Sheikh Ahmad Marzuki, who 23:48 dictated it directly from Prophet 23:51 Muhammad, says, "I write this book with 23:53 the name of Allah who is the Most 23:56 Merciful and Most Compassionate whose 23:58 goodness will always exist." All praise 24:03 is due to Allah, the One who is the 24:06 beginning to the end and there is no 24:08 change. Blessings and peace be upon 24:13 Prophet Muhammad, who is the only 24:16 person who truly understands monotheism 24:18 . Yes, even if a monotheism expert 24:22 today is an expert in theology, they 24:25 cannot surpass the monotheism of 24:27 Prophet Muhammad. Yes, so what is 24:31 monotheism (tauhid)? Monotheism is 24:33 acknowledging the oneness of Allah. Yes 24:35 , monotheism is acknowledging the 24:36 oneness of Allah. We are trying to get 24:38 to know Allah more closely. Okay, let's 24:42 not go too deep into it first, because 24:45 the language is a bit complicated. So, 24:49 if a child is born and that child can 24:52 think, what is it that we as parents 24:56 are obliged to teach that child? Right? 25:03 And if, for example, there is a brother 25:05 of ours who converts to Islam, a new 25:07 convert, what is the first thing that 25:09 must be taught to that convert? Then 25:15 the answer is the science of aqidah or 25:17 the science of monotheism. What is the 25:20 science of monotheism? The science of 25:22 monotheism is knowing Allah, 25:23 acknowledging the oneness of Allah. As 25:25 stated by Sheikh Ibn Ruslan, "Awalu 25:30 wajibin' alal insani ma'rifatul ilahi 25:35 bistiqoni." The very first duty of a 25:40 human being is to know God. Yes, 25:44 knowing God as He truly is. So when our 25:50 children are able to think, or when we 25:52 have a brother or sister who has just 25:54 converted to Islam, the first thing we 25:56 teach is about Allah, Tawhid, and 25:57 Aqidah. What is the ruling on this? 26:02 Studying the science of Aqidah is fardh 26:03 'ayn (an individual obligation). Fardh' 26:06 ayn means every one of us must know it. 26:10 What if we don't know it? If you don't 26:11 know, it is a sin. If we refuse to 26:13 study the science of Aqidah and Tawhid, 26:16 that is a sin. Because indirectly, we 26:18 are refusing to know Allah. Now, if, 26:25 yes, if we look at the phenomena of the 26:28 end times today, in kindergarten or 26:31 early childhood education, there are 26:35 lists of subjects that will be taught 26:38 to children. Yes, there is English 26:43 listed, there is effective learning 26:46 listed. That's not wrong, it's not 26:49 wrong. But we as parents have homework 26:53 to do. Even before entering that early 26:55 education, what is our homework? Our 26:58 homework as Muslims is introducing our 26:59 children to Allah. Tell them, "Child, 27:03 in this world, we have a God whom we 27:05 must obey.""His name is Allah.""Where 27:11 is Allah?" For example, right? Wow, 27:14 this question will lead back to Tawhid 27:16 again. "Where is Allah?" Just tell them 27:19 . "Child, Allah exists without a place. 27:23 ""Allah does not have a place.""But why 27:25 doesn't Allah have a place?""Isn't it 27:27 true that everything that exists has a 27:29 place?" For example, if our child is 27:31 that smart. "Because Allah is different 27:34 from us, my child.""We are His 27:36 creations.""While Allah is the Creator. 27:38 ""And the Creator possesses the 20 27:42 attributes." That is why, if in the 27:46 villages, it is popular to recite ' 27:49 wujud, qidam, baqa, mukhalafatul lil 27:51 hawaditsi,' that is indirectly teaching 27:54 little children about Tawhid. It's just 27:58 that most of the phenomena that happen 28:00 are only used for chants and praise; it 28:03 is rarely taught. But we as parents, or 28:07 those of us who have converts to Islam, 28:11 have an obligation to teach them, or 28:14 they have an obligation to know or 28:17 recognize Allah. It is mandatory. 28:21 Mandatory. So it is not reading the 28:24 Quran first, not studying jurisprudence 28:26 first; no, but knowing Allah first. If 28:29 a person already knows Allah, then 28:31 knowing everything else becomes easy. 28:34 Easy. Now, the problem is, it's quite 28:40 difficult for us to know Allah. Let's 28:42 be honest, Sir. That's how it is. 28:44 Getting to know Allah is difficult. It 28:47 is hard to know Allah, so how do we 28:49 introduce Allah to a small child? 28:51 That's difficult, isn't it? Allah is 28:53 the most primary essence. How? The most 28:56 primary ones are small children, right? 28:59 Small children cannot think deeply yet. 29:02 Now, the way is to introduce Prophet 29:07 Muhammad. The way is by introducing 29:10 Prophet Muhammad. Prophet Muhammad with 29:13 all his experiences with Allah. That is 29:16 what we teach to small children. That 29:18 is what is taught. So, we shouldn't 29:20 just arbitrarily teach "Aqidatul Awam" 29:22 theology right away. No. They'll get 29:24 confused and won't understand. Instead, 29:26 we teach them that Prophet Muhammad 29:28 once did this, that, and the other. 29:30 Prophet Muhammad has a Lord named Allah 29:32 . So, the path is through Prophet 29:35 Muhammad. If, from a young age, a child 29:40 has stories of prophecy planted in 29:42 their heart, even leading to love for 29:45 Prophet Muhammad, they will find it 29:47 easy to follow the Sunnah when they 29:49 grow up. It will be easy for them to 29:52 adopt the way and creed of Ahlussunnah 29:54 wal Jama'ah. That will be easy. Because 29:59 the key to being obedient to Allah, the 30:02 key to praying comfortably, praying 30:04 with focus, and enjoying worship. If 30:08 people bring you down, it won't hurt 30:10 your feelings. The key is loving 30:12 Prophet Muhammad. Well, it's like this. 30:18 Why is loving Prophet Muhammad such an 30:19 important thing? Even as our teacher 30:23 said, we have a teacher in the South 30:25 Tangerang, Pondok Aren area, at the 30:28 Darul Mustofa Almukhtar Islamic 30:31 Boarding School, named K.H. Mualim 30:34 Ubaidillah Hamdan. He said that what is 30:39 missing from the Islamic curriculum in 30:42 these end times is love for Prophet 30:45 Muhammad. It’s already gone. We 30:50 rarely introduce our children to 30:52 Prophet Muhammad. Even I personally was 30:55 never told stories about Prophet 30:57 Muhammad when I was small. Never. Never 31:01 . Why is that? Because we have lost it; 31:04 this curriculum is truly gone. For 31:13 instance, let's take one example of a 31:16 Quranic verse: "Qul in kuntum 31:22 tuhibbunallaha fattabiuni 31:24 yuhibkumullahu yagfir lakum dunubakum." 31:28 This is in the Quran, the number one 31:31 book for Muslims. In the Quran, it says 31:35 , "Say, O Muhammad, if you want to be 31:40 loved by Allah, if you want to love 31:44 Allah," fattabiuni "(then follow me)." 31:49 If you want to love Allah, you must 31:50 follow my Sunnah, the Sunnah of Prophet 31:52 Muhammad. "So, to love Allah, one needs 31:57 to follow the Sunnah of Prophet 31:59 Muhammad. Now, to easily follow the 32:03 Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad, there must 32:05 be love. That is why it is important to 32:09 plant this love. There must be love. 32:12 Just like when we love someone. If we 32:15 love someone, that um, what do you call 32:25 it? We will certainly be happy with 32:32 what they do. Let's just use a worldly 32:35 example. Suppose we like a woman, let's 32:38 call her A. This woman A likes the 32:41 color yellow, and she likes egg 32:43 martabak. If we truly like this woman, 32:48 when we eat egg martabak, we remember 32:50 her. When we see the color yellow, we 32:53 remember this woman, and so on. Now, 32:57 when we already like that woman, 32:59 whatever she does, we also feel happy 33:01 about it. Even if we don't actually 33:05 like the color yellow, because it is 33:07 liked by the person we love, we end up 33:10 liking it too. Well, it’s like that. 33:13 That’s why it’s important to love 33:14 Prophet Muhammad. It’s important. 33:17 Okay. That’s one point there. Now, 33:21 who is the human being most beloved by 33:24 the Prophet? The one beloved by Allah 33:27 is definitely Prophet Muhammad. The 33:30 human being most beloved by Allah is 33:33 Prophet Muhammad. There are verses 33:36 about it that we often read. Yes." 33:44 Alaii, "Simply put, in all acts of 33:49 worship—Allah does not recite the 33:52 Shahada, Allah does not perform prayer, 33:55 let alone Zakat; there is no story of 33:58 God paying Zakat, right? None of the 34:02 pillars of Islam or faith are performed 34:05 by Allah Himself, but there is one act 34:08 of worship in which Allah also 34:10 participates." Inallaha wa malaikatahu. 34:12 "Allah and His angels" yusalluna 34:15 alan-nabi. "Send blessings upon Prophet 34:17 Muhammad. What does that mean? It means 34:20 that Prophet Muhammad holds a very high 34:22 position. Yes, I have even said in some 34:26 studies that Prophet Muhammad’s 34:28 position is so high that it surpasses 34:30 the Quran. Oh, how can it surpass the 34:33 Quran? Well, the Quran is the miracle 34:35 of the Quran. The Quran is the 34:38 Prophet's miracle. If there were no 34:39 Prophet Muhammad, there would be no 34:41 Quran. The Quran is the Prophet's 34:44 miracle. How could a miracle ever 34:45 surpass its owner? That is impossible. 34:48 The owner of a miracle is higher than 34:49 the miracle itself. Okay, now. Back 34:53 again. It means that once again, the 34:56 one most beloved by Allah is Prophet 34:59 Muhammad. Now, what if we, as servants 35:03 who have love for Prophet Muhammad in 35:06 our hearts, bring that love into the 35:08 presence of Allah? Wow, how would that 35:12 be? He would be very pleased. He would 35:14 certainly be very pleased; like I said 35:17 earlier about woman A, let's say she 35:20 loves martabak. If we bring martabak to 35:23 woman A, wouldn't she be happy? Woman A 35:25 would be very happy, because it is her 35:26 favorite. It is the same with Allah. 35:29 Allah loves Prophet Muhammad. Yes, when 35:33 we have love for Prophet Muhammad in 35:35 our hearts and bring that love to 35:36 Allah's presence, Allah will also love 35:38 us. That is why it is said," Fattabiuni 35:42 , follow me. "That is why it is said— 35:45 pardon me—that is why it is said, to 35:47 love Me, says Allah," love Prophet 35:49 Muhammad. "To love Allah, love Prophet 35:52 Muhammad. Because if there is already 35:57 love for Prophet Muhammad in our hearts 35:59 , then Allah will love us. Yes. So, the 36:02 essence is this. The essence is not 36:05 that we love Allah, but that Allah 36:07 loves us. That is the essence. If our 36:10 hearts are directed to love Allah and 36:13 the Messenger, in essence, it is they 36:15 who are asking us to love them. So, 36:20 adjusting to the theme, loving Allah, 36:23 loving the Messenger, the creed of 36:26 Ahlussunnah wal Jama'ah. Well, good. So 36:31 the point is, to have a good belief or 36:35 faith, one must surely have the belief 36:39 of Ahlussunnah wal Jama'ah. The creed 36:44 that the Prophet spoke of—those who 36:45 hold such faith will be saved. That is 36:48 the first point. Now, to practice that 36:51 creed, one needs a feeling. A feeling 36:54 of love. Well, this feeling must be 36:57 nurtured for the love of Allah. Now, of 37:01 course, we cannot immediately love 37:03 Allah. We must go through Sayyidina 37:05 Muhammad. Yes, so how is the way? The 37:09 way is to nurture a feeling of love for 37:11 Prophet Muhammad. How do we nurture 37:14 this feeling of love for Prophet 37:15 Muhammad? There are two paths. First, 37:18 learn the Prophetic biography, knowing 37:21 his struggles and everything else. 37:24 Second, learn from a teacher whose 37:26 heart holds a feeling of love for 37:28 Prophet Muhammad. Those are the two. 37:32 Those two methods are for loving 37:34 Prophet Muhammad. When we already love 37:37 Prophet Muhammad, we bring our hearts, 37:38 which are filled with love for him, 37:40 into the presence of Allah, and Allah 37:42 will be pleased. If Allah is pleased, 37:45 our sins are forgiven. That is why, in 37:48 a broader sense, we enter heaven not 37:50 because of merits, not because of 37:51 prayers, no, but because of Allah's 37:53 mercy. Because of Allah's mercy. How is 37:58 it said in narrations that a prostitute 38:01 who just entered Islam and then passed 38:04 away went to heaven? She never prayed, 38:08 only based on entering Islam. So, in a 38:14 broader discussion, we enter heaven not 38:16 because of our deeds, but because of 38:18 Allah. And to be worthy of Allah’s 38:23 mercy, we need to nurture that feeling 38:27 of love for Prophet Muhammad. Yes, 38:32 perhaps that is all I can convey. 38:36 Please go ahead if there is anything 38:38 you would like to ask. Thank you for 38:41 your time. Thank you. 38:44 Praise be to Allah, the material we 38:47 listened to this morning on the theme 38:51 of knowing Allah and knowing the 38:53 Messenger has been conveyed quite 38:56 concisely. So, those among the 38:59 congregation who wish to ask are 39:02 welcome. Ustaz. Previously, I had a 39:09 question regarding how we cultivate 39:12 that love for Prophet Muhammad peace be 39:15 upon him. Because to love Allah, we are 39:19 asked to love the Messenger. Because 39:23 Allah also loves the Messenger, and 39:25 Allah sends blessings, and the angels 39:27 send blessings upon the Messenger, 39:29 peace be upon him. Now, here, how do we 39:33 cultivate that love by studying the 39:35 Prophetic biography and learning from a 39:38 teacher who loves the Messenger? Then, 39:41 uh. How can we prove that we truly love 39:49 the Messenger in our daily lives? That 39:56 is all. Okay. First, how to love 39:59 Prophet Muhammad? Correct. 40:02 Proof of our love. 40:04 Okay. Okay. Very well. Very well. So, 40:07 as I said, the fastest way to love 40:10 Prophet Muhammad is to find a teacher, 40:13 whoever that may be, whether an ustaz, 40:16 kiai, or habib, find a teacher whose 40:19 heart holds an extraordinary love for 40:22 Prophet Muhammad, so that any knowledge 40:25 they convey will produce light that we 40:29 ourselves cannot see with our physical 40:32 eyes. The effect, the effect is this. 40:36 The effect is that a person or a 40:38 teacher who has love for Prophet 40:40 Muhammad in their heart cannot hate 40:42 others, cannot blame others. Their 40:46 heart is educated like that. So the 40:50 main trait is that their heart will not 40:53 blame others, will not label others as 40:56 infidels, will not label others as 40:59 heretics, they will not. Their heart is 41:03 always at peace. That is the effect. 41:05 The effect of love for Prophet Muhammad 41:07 is being unable to hate people. Cannot 41:10 hate people. Find a teacher like that. 41:13 Find a teacher like that. Perhaps that 41:15 is it. 41:16 Yes. Then, also in our lives, right. 41:21 And there are also several activities 41:24 from our congregation or assembly. 41:29 Regarding the Seerah Nabawiyah, we have 41:31 also held sessions here on how we can 41:33 understand the Seerah of the Messenger 41:35 of Allah. But there is also the 41:38 activity of reciting the Mawlid, right. 41:42 Well, there are some congregants who 41:44 like the Mawlid. There are also some 41:47 congregants who perhaps do not like it 41:49 yet and in reality, mostly in the past, 41:51 they never recited such things. Is that 41:55 also part of the way we love the 41:57 Messenger of Allah, or what is the 41:59 recitation of the Mawlid really about? 42:03 Is it also a way for us to love the 42:05 Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him? 42:08 Fine. The Mawlid is not a way to love, 42:12 but an effect of loving. Yes, Ma'am. 42:16 Remember, the Prophet Muhammad's Mawlid 42:19 is not a way to love, it is not. 42:21 Because, forgive me, the things recited 42:23 are in Arabic and we don't understand 42:25 them, right. So it is not a way. 42:28 Perhaps some people make it a way, but 42:30 generally speaking, it is not. But in 42:33 general, it is an effect of loving the 42:35 Mawlid of Prophet Muhammad; celebrating 42:36 the birthday of the great master 42:38 Prophet Muhammad does not need evidence 42:40 . It needs a heart. It needs a heart. 42:44 Prophet Muhammad was born. We are happy 42:46 , we are glad to hold an event. It is 42:49 as simple as that, actually. It does 42:50 not need evidence. No need to debate 42:53 left and right about Mawlid evidence, 42:55 all sorts of heresy issues, and 42:56 everything else. So the point is, 43:00 Mawlid in Indonesia in general is an 43:03 effect of our love. It is not a way, it 43:07 is not. As for it being a way, some use 43:10 it as such, some do not; in general, it 43:12 is not. Yes. So that is how it is, Sir. 43:16 It is more about the effect, right. How 43:19 we love, we also bring it to life. 43:22 Effect. Yes. Because we love, we bring 43:23 it to life, like that. 43:25 Yes. Is there anything the congregation 43:29 would like to convey, and also this, 43:31 Ustaz...In our lives, Ustaz, we...We 43:40 want to achieve, actually our worship 43:43 earlier, we enter heaven not because of 43:45 our worship, but because of...The 43:50 pleasure of Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. 43:52 Now, in our implementation of daily 43:55 worship activities. How do we connect 43:59 this so that we can more quickly or 44:03 more easily obtain the pleasure of 44:06 Allah? Because we want to obtain, if we 44:09 rely on our worship, it seems like we 44:11 ...uh...it's difficult, well, it's 44:12 impossible, because it is decreed that 44:14 we enter heaven not because of our 44:16 deeds, but because of His pleasure. 44:19 Because how do we want to reach the 44:21 pleasure of Allah so that we can become 44:22 ...uh...what is it later? 44:25 Heaven. 44:26 To Allah's heaven, obtaining His 44:28 blessings both during our lives and 44:30 when we eventually pass away later. 44:33 Okay. Okay. In a more detailed 44:36 explanation, to enter heaven, you don't 44:39 use deeds, roughly speaking. But 44:42 entering heaven requires Allah's mercy 44:45 or Allah's pleasure, right? To be able 44:50 to reach Allah's pleasure, to be able 44:52 to reach Allah's mercy, it is certainly 44:54 through piety. Yes, piety, in a more 44:58 general definition or understanding, is 45:00 carrying out Allah's commands and 45:02 leaving His prohibitions. By carrying 45:05 out Allah's commands and leaving His 45:08 prohibitions, we will already be among 45:10 those who receive Allah's mercy or 45:13 pleasure. So, prayer is not the goal. 45:18 Yes, but prayer is a means to obtain 45:20 Allah's mercy. If we stop praying just 45:24 because prayer isn't the reason to 45:25 enter heaven, that’s ridiculous. 45:28 Because Allah commanded us to pray. 45:30 Well, how is it with a child? For 45:31 example, a child, uh, a child goes to 45:33 school, say elementary school," Come on 45:35 , kid, go to school, later Daddy will 45:37 buy you new shoes. "Is the purpose of 45:39 them going to school really to buy new 45:41 shoes? No. No. But their purpose in 45:43 going to school is to learn, so they 45:46 can be smart, not for the shoes. It's 45:48 the same for us; entering heaven is 45:52 just a lure. The terminology is a lure, 45:54 to make it sound appealing." Oh, in 45:55 heaven, you can ask for anything. "But 45:57 the essence is not that. Later, Allah 45:59 is the one who decides. In fact, in a 46:02 narration, it is said there was a 46:03 person whose worship lasted for 700 46:05 years. 700 years. But this person, at 46:10 the end of his life, died in a state of 46:13 su'ul khatimah. Died in a bad state. 46:17 What does that mean? It means later in 46:19 the hereafter, his worship deeds are 46:20 not accepted. His worship deeds are not 46:22 accepted. So, back to the point earlier 46:27 , how to be able to get Allah's mercy 46:30 or pleasure is through piety, right? 46:34 Through piety, doing Allah's commands. 46:37 Leaving His prohibitions. What is 46:39 carrying out Allah's commands? Among 46:41 them is what was mentioned earlier, 46:43 loving Prophet Muhammad as written in 46:45 the Qur'an. Fattabiuni. Just like that. 46:49 Thank you. 46:50 Yes. Uh, by loving Prophet Muhammad, we 46:54 will also obtain Allah's love in. 46:58 Now, in the Qur'an, it is also 47:00 explained that. 47:02 It was mentioned earlier that Allah and 47:04 the angels send prayers upon the 47:06 Prophet. What is Allah's and the angels 47:11 'prayer like, Ustaz? In this case, 47:14 perhaps our understanding. 47:15 Oh yes. 47:16 We are still on the topic of prayer ( 47:17 salawat), right? Allahumma shalli ala 47:18 sayyidina Muhammad wa ali sayyidina 47:20 Muhammad. Now, in a case like this, 47:23 what might we say? 47:25 Allah's prayer is mercy/blessing. The 47:30 angels' prayer is asking for 47:32 forgiveness. Asking for forgiveness. So 47:36 later, in a deeper interpretation," 47:38 innallaha wa malaikatahu yusalluna alan 47:41 nabi "means He prays for the community 47:44 of Muhammad. So Allah and His messenger 47:48 recite salawat. How is that? Allah's 47:52 salawat there means Allah is blessing 47:54 him. Allah is blessing him, indeed. The 47:58 meaning is prayer, like that. The 48:00 angels reciting salawat means they are 48:04 asking for forgiveness for Prophet 48:06 Muhammad. Perhaps this also needs a 48:14 deeper interpretation. 48:18 But as far as my knowledge goes, the 48:21 way Allah and the angels recite salawat 48:24 is different. Allah continuously 48:28 bestows His mercy and prayers upon 48:30 Prophet Muhammad until the end of time. 48:32 Meanwhile, the angels continuously ask 48:34 for forgiveness for Prophet Muhammad. 48:39 Someone might find it odd, how can they 48:41 ask for forgiveness for Prophet 48:43 Muhammad, right? Well, there is another 48:46 view that the angels 'seeking of 48:49 forgiveness is the same as mercy. The 48:53 angels' seeking of forgiveness is the 48:54 same as mercy. So, besides that verse, 48:59 there are also hadiths where those who 49:02 seek knowledge receive the angels ' 49:05 forgiveness or prayers. The 49:08 interpretation of the angels' prayer 49:10 there is seeking forgiveness, like that 49:12 . So indeed, many interpretations are 49:15 needed, especially since these are 49:16 Quranic verses. So what I mentioned 49:18 earlier is one of many various 49:20 interpretations. Perhaps that is all I 49:23 can answer. Yes, is there anything the 49:26 congregation would like to ask? Please, 49:28 Sir. 49:29 Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy 49:30 and blessings. 49:31 And peace be upon you, and Allah's 49:32 mercy. 49:33 Ustaz. Forgive me, earlier the question 49:36 was about piety, which is carrying out 49:39 Allah's commands and avoiding His 49:41 prohibitions. Now, how do we love 49:45 Prophet Muhammad? You said we must 49:48 quickly find a teacher. We ask," Sir, 49:53 what kind of teacher should we ideally 49:58 look for? "Because there are so many 50:01 teachers, sometimes we cannot, what's 50:04 it called, de determine whether they 50:09 are good or bad. So, for teaching our 50:12 children, what should we be like? What 50:15 kind of teacher should we look for?" 50:17 Perhaps you have, what's it called, any 50:20 advice from you, Ustaz, on what it's 50:22 like. That might be all, Ustaz. Peace 50:24 be upon you, and Allah's mercy and 50:25 blessings. 50:25 And peace be upon you, and Allah's 50:27 mercy. Alright. The rhythm is like this 50:29 . Perhaps this is what I can answer, 50:33 yes. The rhythm is, if we look at the 50:37 end-of-times phenomena now, look for a 50:40 scholar who is right. Look for a true 50:45 scholar. Meaning, in these end times, 50:48 there is a term "ulama su," evil 50:50 scholars. They have the label of Ustaz, 50:53 the label of Kiai, but they don't 50:55 reflect that. There are many, many of 50:57 them. Now, one of the signs of a good, 51:01 true scholar in these end times is, 51:04 first, they unite the Muslim community. 51:09 Uniting the Muslim community. This is 51:10 the most prominent sign. This scholar, 51:13 this Ustaz, this Kiai, this Habib, 51:15 unites the Muslim community, does not 51:16 cause division. This is very general. 51:19 This is a general example, a general 51:21 sign, excuse me. A general sign. So, 51:23 look for a scholar who does not cause 51:26 division. Whether it's a scholar from 51:29 Muhammadiyah, a scholar from NU, or a 51:31 scholar from any group, if they do not 51:33 divide the community, hold on to that 51:35 scholar. Now, once we find a scholar 51:40 like that, it's hard for us to know, is 51:42 this really, does this Ustaz love 51:44 Prophet Muhammad? It's difficult, right 51:46 ? But for starters, that is what we 51:49 must focus on first. Look for a scholar 51:52 who does not divide the ummah. After 51:55 you find them, make them your teacher. 51:59 Now, that is the first step. Then, 52:01 since we don't know if they love 52:03 Prophet Muhammad or not, it can be seen 52:06 from the effects. What are the effects? 52:08 The effect is, they will not speak ill 52:10 of others, that teacher will not. They 52:14 will not, uh, blame others or form 52:17 their own exclusive group, that won't 52:20 happen. The signs are visible. So, look 52:24 for a teacher who does not divide the 52:27 ummah. Then, after finding that teacher 52:31 , see if there are those effects, do 52:33 they have those signs? The sign of 52:36 whether they love [the Prophet] or not 52:37 is seen from whether they like to blame 52:39 others or not. If they like to blame 52:41 others, it means that is not a person 52:43 who has Prophet Muhammad in their heart 52:44 , no. So the trait is, they have no 52:48 hatred for anyone, and will not put 52:50 anyone down. Now, lastly, how do we 52:53 instill this in young children? Well, 52:56 like it or not, as parents, we must 52:57 know the Sirah Nabawiyah first. At the 53:01 very least, we should have stories of 53:03 the Prophet that contain good lessons. 53:06 Then, before the child sleeps, our 53:08 child goes to sleep, we tell them that 53:09 Prophet Muhammad was like this, like 53:11 this, like this. So, at the beginning, 53:14 it's not love immediately, but building 53:15 memories of the stories in the child's 53:17 head first. Oh, Prophet Muhammad was 53:20 extraordinary. Which later, when this 53:23 child grows up, indirectly, they will 53:26 automatically seek those teachers. 53:30 Meaning, actually, you don't really 53:32 have to look. If we truly want it, that 53:34 teacher will come. Because in a Hadith, 53:37 it is said "al-arwahu mujannadah"(souls 53:38 are like recruited soldiers). Now, we 53:41 want to love Prophet Muhammad. We don't 53:44 need to go to the trouble of searching 53:45 for a teacher. But looking for one is 53:46 also fine. Looking is also fine. That 53:48 teacher will come on their own 53:49 eventually. Because of our good 53:52 intention to love, our good intention 53:53 of having goodness in our hearts, Allah 53:55 will also bring goodness. Because later 53:57 , our souls will be gathered together 53:59 with those whom we love, with those 54:01 whom we love, like that. Yes. 54:04 MashaAllah. Ustaz, as the end of our 54:07 study this morning, could you provide a 54:09 conclusion to our session? Please go 54:12 ahead. 54:15 The conclusion. 54:16 Oh, the conclusion. Alright. In 54:19 conclusion, to be able to worship 54:21 calmly and obediently to Allah, one 54:23 needs to love Prophet Muhammad. To be 54:28 able to love Prophet Muhammad, learn 54:30 the Sirah Nabawiyah, or find a teacher, 54:32 or plant it in our hearts by learning 54:35 the Sirah Nabawiyah ourselves. There 54:37 are many translations out there. If we 54:39 can love Prophet Muhammad, all our 54:42 worship feels pleasant. The Sunnah 54:44 practices that we perform all feel 54:46 pleasant. Finally, what happens? We 54:50 carry out the Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah 54:52 creed with certainty. Perhaps that is 54:55 the conclusion. 54:56 Yes. That concludes our study session 55:00 this morning, where we seek to attain 55:03 the love of Allah by loving the 55:05 Messenger of Allah. And love arises 55:09 from us getting to know the Messenger 55:11 of Allah. Getting to know the Messenger 55:13 of Allah by following the study of the 55:15 Prophetic biography to understand the 55:17 life of the Messenger. And also to love 55:20 the Messenger of Allah, which will have 55:23 an effect on how we love his sunnah and 55:25 his life in our daily implications. As 55:29 the host, I apologize if there were any 55:31 mistakes or shortcomings. Wabillahi 55:33 taufiq wal hidayah. Wassalamualaikum 55:35 warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. 55:36 Waalaikumsalam warahmatullahi 55:38 wabarakatuh. 55:39 Shallallahu ala Muhammad, sallallahu 55:42 alaihi wasallam.
