3:44

that we have the mother of our student here who is soon

3:57

4:05

4:24

to attend this session and to meet with me and her daughter wants to teach

4:29

Islamic esy in addition to being a medical

4:35

doctor so I said to her my method to

4:44

teach Islamic esy study of the end time is to

4:50

begin with methodology for recitation of the Quran

4:55

and then to teach methodology for this study of the Quran

5:02

and then you go to and amongst the signs of The Last

5:12

Day begin with go so tonight I want to repeat what we

5:20

did last night on methodology for recitation of

5:25

the Quran and to begin with two one

5:32

in I won't be able to pause to ask questions tonight I

5:46

the which Allah is saying to

5:52

Muhammad stop what you're doing stop don't do it

6:00

what is it that the prophet is doing that Allah should say to

6:17

him don't move your tongue to make haste with this

6:25

Quran and again in

6:33

so what is Allah's messenger talking about

6:38

answer the Quran came down two ways two

6:45

ways the first one is when the whole Quran came

6:52

down on the night of

7:02

but the whole Quran came down to

7:07

the on that night and from

7:13

the or the lowest did the

7:21

angel brought it to their heart of Muhammad

7:29

and this is called and comes to the heart not the a

7:40

the heart and it took 23

7:46

years for the whole Quran to come

7:51

down but Allah says

7:57

inak Rad

8:05

that the whole Quran also came down in one

8:11

month that was one night this is one

8:19

month let me

8:28

repeat so when did the Quran come down in one whole month when and

8:36

how and the answer is that every night of

8:44

Ramadan Allah subhanahu waala he himself would recite the

8:53

Quran muham this is documented in the

9:02

Hadith Allah would recite the Quran and this is

9:08

not this is recitation and this is not to the

9:15

heart this is to the

9:21

air and Allah subh who completes the recitation of the whole Quran not in 23

9:30

years but in one

9:40

month so Muhammad is

9:45

listening during the nights of Ramadan and he is

9:53

hearing passages of the Quran he's never heard before because it has not come as

9:59

yet as when comes it is instantly

10:09

memorized so now he moving his tongue quickly to try to

10:17

memorize and Allah says to him St don't do that

10:31

wait to memorize this Quan Wait Until

10:38

the is completed 23 years then you can

10:44

memorize the whole Quran but then he went on to

10:52

say in

11:12

we will bring all the revelations together as a

11:19

whole and we will

11:26

then and then we are going to recite the whole Quran to

11:37

you so what he listening and he's hearing passages of

11:44

the Quran he never heard

11:49

before so Allah says now

11:56

in listen carefully

12:07

we are going to teach you to recite this Quran and when we do that you will not

12:17

forget

12:22

for Mall except that which we want you to

12:30

forget you will not forget except that which we want you to

12:40

forget what is that that Allah wants him to forget let me repeat the

12:53

question when we teach you this Quan you will not forget

13:00

Allah except that which we want you to forget so what it is that Allah wants

13:07

him to forget answer you're lucky I can't question you

13:13

lucky answer all that part of the Quran which

13:19

is being recited in Ramadan which he's hearing for the first

13:26

time which has not as yet come down

13:31

as when that recitation is finished Allah wipes it out of his

13:40

memory so next year Ramadan when he hears it it will be like hearing it for

13:48

the first time for the first time but then after Allah recited the

13:57

Quran to

14:04

he said for when I have I'm using the singular

14:12

but the text is in plural when I have recited this

14:24

Quran you must follow that way of

14:29

situation and so now we know that he recited the whole

14:37

Quran in Ramadan and so it is the Sunnah of

14:44

Allah to recite the whole Quran in Ramadan but Allah is reting but he's

14:51

using the angel it is not the angel who reting it

14:58

is Allah is reciting but he's using the

15:03

angel so it is a of Allah to recite the

15:08

whole Quran in Ramadan and now Allah gives the command to the prophet you must do the same

15:16

thing I recited in the whole Quran in one month you must do it also in

15:22

Ramadan so Ramadan we just pass it you just Ramadan in

15:32

Morocco so tell me how many of you recited the whole Quran put your hands

15:37

up in Ramadan tell me I can't see everybody let me

15:44

see all right all let me take a drink of

15:52

water next time I come I want to see every hand

15:57

up okay

16:03

every but if Allah messeng reting the whole Quran in

16:11

Ramadan then each night he have to recite a part a

16:16

portion is called the Jews so now we have to divide the Quan

16:24

for recitation question do we divide it or

16:31

has he divided it shall we divide it or has Allah

16:37

divided it okay I'm going to pause for an answer who can answer me yes Allah he

16:45

did it Allah divided

16:50

it who divided the Quran people people did it

16:57

yes people because people divided it yes div Allah divided where is the

17:04

proof which Surah from the beginning to the end no no which Surah give me the name of the

17:12

Surah if not let somebody else answer he's

17:18

talking I'm talking about Jews the don't open your phones don't

17:26

check your phones now too late for that

17:32

okay put away your phone now put away your phone

17:38

div we have to divide the Quran to recite it over one month so are we going

17:45

to divide it or did Allah divide it

17:50

answer where Allah where is the proof

18:06

yes which Surah don't look at the phone don't look

18:11

not which Surah is

18:24

correct we have divided this Quran Surah

18:31

is we have divided this Quran so you don't have to do it Allah has done

18:38

it but when Allah divided the Quran how did he do it

18:45

answer plural

18:54

ofak Al Iman Etc but he went on to

19:06

say that the purpose of division dividing the Quran

19:13

into Surah is not for study

19:19

no I have divided Quan into foration

19:30

but then something else something else very

19:38

important listen to me the go to say something

19:44

else which is very important

19:58

you might recite this Quran

20:04

at intervals of

20:10

time so now there is a link between the recitation of the

20:17

Quan and the system of time with

20:22

Allah in that system of time there is a day

20:32

and when does a day come to an end

20:38

answer at sunset at

20:45

Sunset and when a day comes to an end at Sunset a new day

20:53

begins that is with Allah and guess what said

21:00

said he said no midnight Midnight he said the day ends at

21:07

midnight at midnight so when the 31st of December

21:14

comes wait until midnight and then all the

21:20

fireworks and they dancing in parties to welcome a new year

21:29

also in Morocco ready

21:35

ready so here is the evidence on Judgment Day you have given your

21:41

evidence on Judgment Day you're not following Allah you're

21:49

following the system of time that Allah has

21:56

given is not only one in which there is a day which ends at

22:03

Sunset but there is also something called a

22:09

week and a week is comprised of six

22:15

days one and we come back to that then

22:21

shortly and in the system of time that Allah has given there something called a

22:27

month and the mon is determined

22:34

by from this to that is a so the Quran is

22:40

recited every day and the best time is at the time

22:46

of and you can recite the whole Quran in one

22:52

week but not faster than that but theah is to recite

22:59

the whole Quran in one one month and in the Quran there are 12

23:07

months the months with Allah are 12 so when you reach number 12 you got

23:14

to start back with number one so in the Quran one

23:21

year is comprised of 12 month 12 moons 12 moons

23:29

so what he said no he said I can't change the week so

23:38

I'm not going to bother to change it but I'll change the month so instead of having the mo

23:47

detering the L of a from one to

23:52

another Dalal says I will take the solar year

23:58

and I'll take a knife a chopper and I'll chop the solar into 12

24:08

Parts she studying medicine so there's something called

24:15

surgery where you operation surgery so I'm going to

24:21

chop the year solar year into 12 parts and because my Christian people

24:30

are going to do it they're going to make sure that some months have more like

24:35

Easter and some months have left so now

24:41

then says a mon can have 31 days and when we accept that on Judgment

24:50

Day we're not following Allah we following the and a man can have 29 days and 20 it

25:00

is that is and 12 months make a

25:07

year now noer 12

25:13

luns but Allah says I divided this

25:18

Quan

25:25

into so this recitation of the Quran has

25:31

an ingrained relationship with time and with the measurement of time

25:40

and what's that's what I want to introduce to you tonight before we stop

25:46

the rest you can do on your own I have a book entitled the Quran and the

25:53

moon but some of you need to write read that book several times

26:02

in the Shar which came before

26:10

us Allah sent down the 10 commandments to

26:16

musam and one of the 10 was the law of the

26:23

Sabbath that on the saath day you're not allowed to

26:29

work you can pray you can rest but you cannot

26:36

work and he gave the summer day because he

26:48

said since he created the heavens and the Earth in six

26:54

days he used the seven day to

27:00

commemorate the creation of the heavens and earth in six days so it is Allah who

27:07

gave us a week comprised of 6 + 1 s days and

27:16

couldn't change that so that has remain but the law of the

27:23

sabath that you cannot work on the shabath day

27:29

was such that Allah chose to test them and if you know the answer don't

27:36

tell me just put your hands up just put your hands up he spoke of a town by the

27:48

Sea and this town live by [Music]

27:53

fishing and every day of the week he prevented the fish from

27:59

coming no fish but on the Sabbath day all the fish

28:05

are coming will they break the law and go and fish or will they obey the

28:12

law some of them said we don't care two peanuts for the law and they went

28:20

fishing on the and this violation of the law of the

28:26

sabath was so important with Allah that he

28:32

cured them he cured them and he said to

28:44

them be Apes desp you're going to be living like monkeys now monkeys don't

28:51

wear clothes in public but that's their f

28:58

but these people are going to show eventually a preference

29:06

for nakedness monkeys do their bedroom life

29:14

in but there's nothing shameful and disgraceful about that's their

29:20

F but these are people cursed by Allah to eventually engage in sexual relations

29:28

in public so the law of the saat was

29:34

important with Allah if there is a law of the sabat in

29:39

the previous Shar where is

29:51

it that's the 6 is

29:56

6 now this s and Allah says

30:02

about

30:10

for there such on

30:15

jum let's stop working no no no so where is the

30:22

Sabbath in this Sharia in this um we now

30:28

come to the separation of the Quran by Allah which is linked with the

30:38

system of time with the system of time Allah has prohibited

30:46

us from breaking up the Quran into bits and pieces

30:53

he in

31:04

and say to them I am a Warner and when I warn I do so in a

31:12

manner which is plain and

31:21

clear and the warning is to be delivered to a people

31:26

called who

31:36

are there are a people who break up the Quran into bits and

31:45

pieces for I take an oath by your oh

31:55

muhamad I'm going to question every single one of

32:02

them for what they have done to this

32:08

Quan sometimes you cannot understand what the

32:14

Quran is saying until events have

32:21

unfolded in history you have to wait to understand

32:26

the Quran and thisse is speaking about something to

32:34

come something that's going to happen in the future and and now we share that with

32:43

you that when the moon was seen of Ramadan and Allah was reciting the first

32:52

Jews to him on the first night of Ramadan

32:59

he recited every night because the Quran is comprised of

33:07

two

33:14

things Quran isim is it

33:20

Kim the Quran is comprised of two things

33:29

it is comprised ofah and the

33:34

Quran indicating that every night that you recite the Quran every day that you

33:40

recite the Quran you must begin with the

33:45

key and then you recite your Jews so what's the first

33:51

Jews the first Jew is Surah

33:56

bakar and it's the longest Surah of

34:01

all why has Allah put the longest Surah of

34:07

all at the beginning of the Quran

34:14

why remember and then on the second

34:19

day of Ramadan

34:25

and the whole thing and then on the third

34:32

day and and then on the

34:38

four and on theth

34:44

day and and then on the sixth

34:49

[Music] day

34:55

and six [Music]

35:03

long at the beginning of the Quran six long

35:09

suras and we say and Allah know

35:15

best that the recitation of six

35:20

longas over a period of 6 days

35:30

meant to coincide with six days of

35:39

creation the reason why Allah has given us six long suras at the beginning of

35:47

the Quran is because the recitation of this six long suras over six days are meant

35:57

to C inside with the six days of

36:03

creation so now what about the seventh day that is their Sabbath

36:11

day on the seventh day why has Allah given us

36:21

aah is and the question is

36:28

why after six long suras why a short

36:34

Surah second question the com

36:42

after is unique in the whole Quran it is the only

36:48

Surah which does not begin with

37:01

why is there no at the beginning

37:09

of this is our answer if you have

37:14

another answer please share it with us this is our

37:21

answer and Allah knows best the reason why

37:30

is and not begin

37:37

with our answer is that Allah has done this because he wants us to recite both

37:46

these SAS combined as our for the S

37:52

day and in joining these two suras on the seventh day he has given us our

38:02

Sabbath with which we Mark and commemorate the six days of

38:09

creation so he has given us a Sabbath once a

38:15

month and he gave them a Sabbath once a

38:22

week our Sabbath once a mon is connected

38:28

with the recitation of the Quran that you can recite the whole Quran in one

38:35

week if you wish but not faster than

38:47

that now let me share with you what the has done

39:02

I swear by your mam I am going to question every single

39:07

one of them for what they have done to this Quran the said and you could check it

39:14

out pick up a copy of the Quran and you see the up the he said that the first

39:22

Jews ends at verse 141 of

39:28

Bak so he has chopped

39:35

bak and he said the second ends at verse

39:42

252 of Bak so Bak got two

39:48

chops yeah and he said the third Jews ends at

39:54

91 of Ali IM like this goes on chopping chopping chopping the

40:01

Quran so we say when Allah say when

40:06

Allah said he condemned those who broke up the

40:13

Quran into bits and pieces we say Allah was referring to an event to come in the

40:22

future when the is going to break up the Quran into bits and pieces

40:27

is and all the excuse my language all the sheep and

40:34

cattle who don't think will accept that and will recite the Quran that

40:42

way but if you recite the Quran that way you pay a

40:48

price because Allah gave a command for when we have recited this Quran

40:59

you must follow that way ofation so now we go to Surah is once

41:09

again and Allah tells us what's the benefit what is the

41:15

benefit of reciting the Quran the way that Allah recited listen

41:22

carefully listen carefully is

41:29

Quran and when you recite the Quran

41:35

meaning when you recite the Quran every

41:41

day according to the correct and you the Quran every Luna

41:50

month when you do that [Music]

42:07

when you recite the Quran that way we are going to put a hijab between you and

42:14

them that world which does not belong believe in the they say a man can marry

42:22

another man and get a marriage certificate and they coming after your sons oh yes

42:31

they coming after your children but if you recite the Quran and

42:37

teach your children to recite the Quran then Allah will put a hijab

42:43

between you and them and that hij will cover it we

42:50

must and the Quran will protect you I'm going to end this much tonight there's

42:59

much more to the subject of intervals of

43:06

time but you'll have to read my book the Quran and the moon because I prefer to

43:12

save a little time for question and answer and discussion so I have given

43:18

you less than oneir of the subject tonight there's much more in the subject

43:25

but you must read my book the Quran and the moon and tomorrow night we take up

43:31

another subject the methodology for the study of the Quran and on the last night

43:38

on y we'll take up one of the signs of the last day

43:45

namely and Ma so now let's pause for a little B and then you can start your

43:52

questions and anwers if anybody has any questions

43:58

does anyone have any questions the question is so if the Quran should be completed the questioner

44:06

said in 30 days should there be 30 Jew if the Quran is to be recited over

44:14

one month then a month is comprised of 30

44:22

days when you have several wives you must expect problems

44:29

Muhammad had several wives and he was up to his throat in

44:37

problems and the problem was so serious that he said to all of them I'm

44:44

parting from all of you for a whole month that must have

44:49

been plenty trouble so for one whole mon he

44:55

separated himself from all his wives at the end of 29 days he came out

45:03

of his K and he went

45:10

to she said why have you come the month has not yet

45:16

ended why have you come the month has not yet ended he

45:24

said sometimes a mon has 29

45:30

days so a month is comprised of 30 days

45:35

but sometimes it can have 29 days so we

45:41

divide the Quan into 30

45:47

parts but if at the end of the 29th

45:53

day the moon Isen then what you would do is just a little

46:00

bit left to complete the Quran so after you see the moon and the month has ended

46:08

you finish the Quran and the next morning you will

46:14

begin the Quran again and Allah knows best the brother mentioned in Morocco

46:19

and other parts of the world there's the uh tradition of uh reading a Jew reading

46:25

or reciting which one you read with your eyes well reading is

46:30

one with the eyes so the question mentioned for the purpose of refreshing

46:36

the memory for memorization and so is somebody sinful for reciting the Quran

46:41

that way for the purposes of refreshing the memory for memorization that was the first part of the question and the

46:48

second part and in a there's group recitation that occurs in Morocco in that way to

46:53

help the to keep the Quran memorized and that's the methodology that they use

47:00

well the answer to that is that which is done in the evenings is not reciting the

47:09

Jews that is not that is for another purpose that is not the recitation of

47:14

the Jews for the purpose ofam of the Quran for the purpose of of the Quran

47:22

every day you have to recite a Jew the best time of is at the time of fud but

47:30

if you do not do it at fud you could do it at any other time but that is recitation of the Quran

47:39

for the purpose of the Quran if you recite the Quran other than that at any

47:47

time of the day you free to do that that's not sinful at all and the second part of his question

47:54

I think you answered it would be uh for somebody who's doing the night prayer and uh wants to recite parts of the

48:02

Quran should does he have to recite the hold of Bak if he gets tired can he stop the recitation of the Quran

48:12

inat does not qualify as recitation for completing a

48:20

Jew that does not qualify for reciting the Quran to complete the Jews you can

48:27

recite any portion from the Quran anyone in

48:32

Sal but for the purpose of reciting the Quran to the Quran you must start from

48:40

the beginning and continue until Surah after

48:45

Surah until you complete the end that is separate

48:51

from question asked normally when people read books they read it with with some

48:57

type of uh baggage attached to that reading it might be cultural influences

49:02

or habits and how since we recognize that the Quran is a Divine text and not just a normal book how can we protect

49:09

ourselves and prevent ourselves from falling into that trap when we're reading the Quran of these when you go

49:17

to the Quran you must go to a Quran which is

49:23

free from preconceived beliefs and notion s and let the Quran become your

49:31

teacher don't go to the Quran with beliefs to find in the Quran that which

49:37

will support your position no when you find something in the Quran

49:44

which is different from what you believe take out from your heart what

49:49

you believe throw it away and take what is in the Quran okay I can't come to

49:58

morocc to teach Morocco to teach the to study to recite the Quran not

50:06

Morocco because Morocco has excelled itself in the whole world of Islam in

50:15

recitation of the Quran oh yes the Moroccans and the Moroccan architecture

50:20

in building mass is famous all over the world you have to have a beautiful heart

50:28

to build like that what I can do is to warn you

50:35

about because is going to attack Morocco oh yes so be careful withal and how you

50:42

recite the Quran and follow what I have written to you in the Quran in the moon

50:49

yeah the question is is it possible to harmonize between aspects of Sala

50:57

methodology and is there a Harmony there or disharmony I

51:04

am I am uh uh I must prer

51:12

that who Dees that he is him explain his

51:21

methodology but if there is no such I have to force

51:31

myself rejects any

51:37

interpretation the the Arabic word is

51:43

interpretation the Arabic for explanation

51:48

is the Arabic for interpretation is the salfi says only

51:57

Allah and his messenger are authorized to interpret no one

52:06

else and so we from

52:12

the and no we say no the Quan is comprised of two kinds of

52:22

verses are and these are described as the very

52:29

heart of the Quran

52:36

and to be only explained not

52:42

interpreted but in addition to Allah in his

52:49

wisdom has chosen to put into the Quran ay

52:56

which have to be interpreted and Oxford University is

53:02

very angry with Allah and so to his Cambridge

53:07

University and the sa in France and Harvard

53:14

Andale and Massachusetts Institute of Technology

53:21

MIT they're all very angry that Allah has put in the

53:31

Quran these are verses which have to be interpreted in order to be

53:38

understood the classic example of

53:46

an is to be found in the verses poting to the fast of

53:54

Ramadan where Allah sent down a new sh the one is still valid for

54:03

them but the new one is valid for us and he

54:21

says eat and drink until the white thread

54:29

thread that the TA use to S the white thread of dawn is distinct from the

54:36

black

54:41

thread then you would fast until the night

54:49

time if this was an expression that was commonly used among

54:56

the Arabs a proverb the white thread and the black thread then why is it that one of

55:04

the companions took a white tread and a

55:09

black thread and put it underneath his pillow and in the morning he was

55:15

checking out to see when to begin the fast he did that because this was not a

55:24

commonly used expression no theab are noted to this and since he

55:32

was having difficul he then went to the prophet Allah blessing be upon him it

55:39

was at that time and not before

55:47

Prophet Allah this that is what

55:52

he when he said e and drink until white thread of dawn is distinct from the

55:59

black thread what he meant by that is eat and drink until the light of the

56:08

day is distinct from the darkness of the night

56:15

so here is the CL case of

56:21

a I don't know what happens in morocc but I was in Pakistan two or three

56:28

Ramadan ago when the aan is called

56:36

for once the is called once thean is called the

56:43

implication is the time of has begun you cannot call the aan until the

56:51

time has come for Sal good you can wait maybe 10 minutes

56:58

for the people to come but you cannot call the people for the when it's not as yet the time of the

57:06

Salat because they are woman at home there are woman at home and when

57:12

they hear their on they perform the at

57:17

home but in Pakistan I notice I'm staying in a

57:24

hotel the has the hotel room has a balcony and I could look at the

57:32

sky and the place is totally dark no

57:37

light in the sky for nearly half an hour after the

57:43

asan no light in the sky none and they already call in their

57:51

and I can hear the M Sal is going on

57:58

and I am allowed to eat so I can be

58:07

eating the

58:13

um I can in and you are

58:19

pering for this reason I never per

58:26

until I can see some light in the sky yes next question two questions the

58:32

first question is the book that sh Imran is working on when is it going to come out and what is it about and the second

58:40

question is related to marriage uh being a means to solve

58:45

issues and problems for young people uh those are the two questions it would be

58:50

Society it would be very kind of you very kind because I'm an old man just

58:58

ask your question one at a time one at a time don't give me two at the same time okay the books I'm writing two books at

59:06

this time the first book is the Quran and Russia's

59:13

Destiny and it is almost completed it being written because of the request of

59:19

the Russian foreign minister Ser La the second book is entitled

59:26

the's Footprints in time and in history

59:31

and this is probably the third or the fourth book on theal that I'm writing

59:37

second question how marriage can help young people in Moroccan Society uh our

59:45

Prophet our Prophet prophesied I don't know whether this

59:53

prophecy has reached Morocco as yet you must let me

59:59

know he said the time will come when one

1:00:05

man will have to maintain 50 wom have you heard it before

1:00:12

yes shake your head let me see oh yes it reached

1:00:18

[Laughter] Morocco one man would have to maintain

1:00:26

50 wom Allah has

1:00:37

said it is a function of men to maintain women and

1:00:45

children and to guard and protect them H

1:00:50

when I was living in New York American women walking on the

1:00:58

streets and men will constantly harass them and sometimes attack

1:01:05

them but inly when a Muslim woman is walking on

1:01:11

this street nobody dares to do that

1:01:17

no you don't play with a Muslim woman

1:01:23

why because the men the Muslim men have made it PL as

1:01:30

daylight you put your hand on a Muslim woman will tear you

1:01:36

apart that's because the African Aman Muslims they protect their woman very

1:01:45

strongly okay it is a function of a men to

1:01:53

maintain woman to guard and protect them but theal says

1:02:00

no you can go in the casino spend the whole day in the casino let her go and

1:02:08

work let her bring an income I'm going in the casino I'm going to do

1:02:16

drugs and she will bring the income to pay the rent and maintain the

1:02:23

children oh I'm going to get the government to give her social security

1:02:28

and I'm free this is what the is doing and men now are increasingly

1:02:36

abandoning their duty to maintain women that's one

1:02:43

reason the second reason is that a feminist Revolution is

1:02:49

causing woman to become more and more masculine more and more

1:02:57

assertive and less and less submissive submissive to their

1:03:06

husband but not the woman of and so men are more and more

1:03:13

reluctant to marry and thirdly there is war which

1:03:19

causes too many to die whatever be the

1:03:24

reason we are moving towards that day when one man will have to maintain

1:03:31

50 wom and when that dayes you must tell

1:03:38

me how to solve the problem because if you don't solve the

1:03:44

problem many of our daughters are going to end up in

1:03:51

prostitution that has happened in some parts of the world of Islam Today I

1:03:56

don't want to mention names but there are parts of the world

1:04:01

of Islam Today where my daughters and my granddaughters are

1:04:07

prostitutes so what to do what to do okay we say that in the Quan Allah has

1:04:16

made it obligatory a woman has a right to a

1:04:24

husband and a man does not have a right to a wife he has a duty to

1:04:31

marry a man has a duty to marry a woman has a right to her

1:04:38

husband so we say if you delay marriage and if you don't

1:04:44

marry then she can complain to Allah on Judgment Day and you'll have to answer

1:04:51

for that good but what about if you marry one

1:04:58

wife because says good men have only one

1:05:05

wife that's what he said but Imran Hussein has two Abdullah two I

1:05:16

believe but have only one wife is that saying in Morocco as well yes yeah good

1:05:25

men have only one wife so then how do we solve the

1:05:32

problem we sayah of prophet

1:05:38

Muhammad to have several wives

1:05:43

[Music] but if you

1:05:50

fear that in marrying a second wife you'll not be able to do just jce

1:05:56

meaning in terms of Maintenance of the wife taking care of her then stay with

1:06:03

only one but not Society to decide you must

1:06:10

decide and second it is becoming increasingly

1:06:16

difficult in places where you have the Moroccan

1:06:21

Dirham and the Pakistani rupe and the

1:06:27

Bangladeshi taka and the Malaysian

1:06:33

ring and the Indonesian rup these are the weak

1:06:42

money and when the money is weak the people are

1:06:47

poor and constantly growing Po and when the money is strong it's

1:06:54

called hard Cen hard currency the people are rich they have

1:07:03

three new cars in the garage brand new cars and they live a

1:07:10

very comfortable life and where those people live is called

1:07:18

Jenna J that's J and where people are

1:07:24

poor it's called Janam so now everybody leaving Morocco

1:07:32

who wants to live in Morocco let's go to France let's go to

1:07:40

Belgium where the grass is [Laughter]

1:07:47

green and so the young man are leaving

1:07:55

and the woman are left behind and when they go there they get a French

1:08:01

woman oh yes so how do we solve the

1:08:07

problem the Quran says if you fear that you cannot you don't have the

1:08:14

means because of R for then stay with one wife oh

1:08:33

is generally understood to be a slave

1:08:38

woman and they say slavy has

1:08:43

ended and so all the verses of the Quran pering to mil

1:08:52

me you're going to have to translate this from mean M have now become

1:09:00

obsolete obsolete I mean back your laptop

1:09:09

computer and redundant redundant yeah that's the claim that's

1:09:17

the claim now these verses can't be app but we say an Ayah of the Quran can never

1:09:28

beol and can never be redundant never the Quran

1:09:40

is every verse of the Quran is absolute [Music]

1:09:46

truth and so you cannot say

1:09:51

that no longer applies today it's fine

1:09:57

good we say wrong every verse of the Quran remains

1:10:04

eternally Val valid so how do we apply mean

1:10:13

today we say since we do not have

1:10:20

slavery the legal definition of slavery but we have another

1:10:27

situation which is absolutely unique and that is 50 women dependent on

1:10:36

one man because of abnormal

1:10:42

circumstances the Shar has to adopt to abnormal

1:10:47

circumstances so when there is a shortage of

1:10:53

food Allah perits you to

1:10:59

eat so long as the shortage REM remains you allowed to

1:11:06

eat okay so the sh can adopt adapt to an

1:11:12

abnormal situation so our view is if she

1:11:17

canot find the husband okay no one wants to marry

1:11:28

and if she does not get a husband it is not just a question of getting

1:11:36

food and clothing and shelter but if a woman's

1:11:42

biologics not satisfied she can become ill she can become mentally ill yes she

1:11:51

can become crazy or she can commit

1:11:57

good I see what you're saying so we say in such a situation she although she is AE woman

1:12:05

because she is in this state she can offer herself as MIL mean to a man of her

1:12:17

choice he cannot come to her and invite her to become no no not but she can

1:12:25

offer herself because when she is accepted as a mil means she has a lower

1:12:33

status the wife ofah so she must offer

1:12:39

herself and if she offers as mil I mean in the presence of

1:12:46

witnesses and if he accepts and if this relationship is not

1:12:53

kept secret because only a

1:12:58

rat keeps a woman in the dark men don't do that men bring her

1:13:06

outside into the sunshine so she can walk with dignity

1:13:11

and respect so provided that this is not kept secret then she becomes your milk you

1:13:21

mean however we can't get any mu around today because we stop

1:13:30

thinking who accepts the contract of milk

1:13:36

andan so if you keep her as a milk and youran and you have sexual relations

1:13:42

they going to say you're committing Z that's right so you can only have milk

1:13:49

mean provided you are in a community which accepts medal and we doing that

1:13:55

now we building such communities so nobody in that Community will ever say to you you committing Z but if you're

1:14:04

outside and you're living in Brussels then I say to you if you want

1:14:10

to have sexual relations with her then make a contract of

1:14:16

ncah the question is how does Allah judge your view paying interest or you

1:14:22

are charging interest or charging interest to people is there are they the same the

1:14:28

prophet Allah's blessing be upon Him

1:14:34

cursed and when a prophet of Allah curses you you going into the head

1:14:42

fire he cursed all four and he said they're all equally

1:14:51

guilty the one who takes riba he lent his money on interest he put it

1:14:59

in a fixed deposit in the bank and he's taking the

1:15:05

interest Prophet cust him the one who gives riba he borrowed

1:15:10

the money on interest and he's paying the interest every month he wanted to buy a

1:15:16

house so every month he's paying the interest the prophet CED

1:15:22

him the one who records the transaction he's working in the

1:15:27

bank and the two witnesses and he said they're

1:15:33

all equally guilty that's the answer to your question but you'll find

1:15:41

B J B I was

1:15:48

surprised the F was said if you're living in New

1:15:53

York then the house is

1:16:00

[Music] okay but you must not buy a second and a

1:16:06

third the first one is okay all right that's enough for tonight

1:16:25

sub [Music]

1:16:33

[Music]
