The lecture addresses the modern theological challenge posed by groups rejecting Hadith and relying solely on the Quran. The speaker demonstrates how the Ahl al-Bayt school interprets deeper meanings, or batin, within the Quran to find references to the Imams. Specifically, the lecture explores how Imam Mahdi and historical figures like Yazid and the Umayyads are symbolically and directly referenced through careful textual analysis of verses related to Friday prayers and Surah Al-Fajr.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim and salallahu ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala ahli baiti tayyibin tahirin. Allahumma salli ala Muhammad wa ali Muhammad. We always face the challenge. This this this kind of challenge is very new. For 1400 years always Muslim been depending in hadith for proving something. Always, for example, if we we want to do something, we always go back to the hadith and then we say that this is good or this is bad.
Now suddenly, especially between the two school of thoughts, between the Ahl al-Bayt school of thoughts and the other school of thoughts, these days because Alhamdulillah we have very strong knowledge, we have very strong logic. We always try to prove that whatever our following to Ahl al-Bayt is something that Allah Azzawajal wants. We follow Imam Ali because Allah Azzawajal want that. This is Sunnat Rasulillah. This is the real Sunnah of Rasulillah.
And we have many few books was written that the Shia are the real Sunnah of Ahl al-Bayt of of Sunnat Rasulillah. And inside this book there is many proofs and this guy he was it was written by Sunni who turned later to be Shia. And I think everyone know about this book for Tijani, say, Sayyid Tijani anyway. So what's important about that, we have something called Neo Sunnis. Neo Sunnis now they trying to implement new things, new ideas and they don't want to follow any hadith.
For example, he comes to you directly and he will say Rasulillah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam he was mentioned in the Quran. And from inside the Quran, we believe that Rasulillah is the legitimate one. And then we follow whoever we follow because there's some aya saying if you want something as mom you have to be as you know like picking as a democracy. Now they're representing a democracy side which is never been implemented before.
This side was they picked the Khalifa from only 11 voices. You know what happened in Saqifa and what happened in Saqifa was done by force. There was no democracy. And later when Muawiyah came and you know what he did with Imam Hasan, and you know how he killed assassinate Imam Hasan, and later he was the reason for assassination for Imam Hussein and all the Imams for all these days and all this long. And now Shia, they think we are facing now Shia with new challenge.
This challenge is going to be the Quran only. We don't believe, this is what they say, we don't believe in any hadith. We believe that even Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim are is no more Sahih. We are what we call the Qura'niyun. And that's it. They want to just take everything from the Quran. And by doing that, they're moving the challenge to the next level. The next level of Shia, but Alhamdulillah, we are immune, we are very we are immune into the point that the Quran is Ahl al-Bayt for us.
Ahl al-Bayt are the real image and the real mirror of the Quran. And if even if you want to move the level to be just the Quran by itself, you want to debate on the Quran by itself, we are for it. We are for it because we have such knowledge. Imam Hussein, he said one time about the Quran, there is seven layers of the Quran. Ilm Zahir. You can, for example, now if I say Bismillahirrahmanirrahim Qul huwallahu Ahad. Seven people will come will come to me now and they will say Qul huwallahu Ahad means so and so.
And then that guy will say no, Qul huwallahu Ahad mean that, and Qul huwallahu Ahad mean that. It will mean seven meaning, plus it will mean four batin meaning, batin meaning, and this is only for auliya Allah Salihin to know because this batin is what we it is the secret it is the secret uh elixir that will continue with it. And every time I as we mentioned before, Quran move by time. For example, uh Surat al-Ankabut, Surat al-Ankabut, always Ahl al-Bayt told us to read it in Lailatul Qadr.
Why? Because in those two ayas, you will know the secret of Imam Mahdi, how Allah Azzawajal get him to be there in this this ayah. For example, when gholibat room uh the Tafsir for gholibat room because why the Muslimin were happy because we said this is the Tafsir, the old Tafsir. They will tell you because the Christians are what? Are closer to Muslims and will be happy if we defeat the Persian. But by reality, if you see the batin of this aya in gholibat room, wayuma-idhin yafrahu al-mu'munun and the mu'munin will be happy as we discovered before mu'munin is only Ahl al-Bayt.
Because they have never been doing saying Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah. When they were created, Allah Azzawajal created them mu'munin directly. So who's going to be "ويومئذ يفرح المؤمنون" in Surat al-Rum at the very beginning, if you read it? Allah he is telling you there that Allah now Imam Mahdi is on Earth. How his mother, the Imam Mahdi's mother, "ويومئذ يفرح المؤمنون" was from Roma.
And as we know, her name was Narjis, but her real name wasn't Narjis. Narjis always they used to say it as flowers for the people who were, for example, if they take them from different countries, they don't really know what their English name. So they take them and then they will call them for example, Qulla. They call it Narjis, they will call it Zahra, anything related to the flowers. Why? Because they want to sell the product.
And then her real name, as some narration said after research, her name is Elisa. The name for Imam Mahdi, the right name. And she was called Narjis because this is her translated name by the people who were selling her. And it it has a story behind how she married Imam Hasan al-Askari and how later Imam Mahdi came. Okay, for for example, this one still in the bottom. And then if I'm going to talk to, for example, a person from different school of thought, he's going to say, you know what?
This is unbelievable. We told you we are Qun. If you didn't mention the name of Imam Mahdi by name, by name, you we won't believe it. You have to mention it by name. You have to tell us that Allah, he said so and so about Imam Mahdi. And we go more in in in the Quran, and we say, yes, we accept the challenge, and we're going to show you that Imam Mahdi is mentioned by name in the Quran. We're going to accept the challenge, and we're going to go more and more.
Plus, we're going to say that even your Taya, Yazid, was mentioned by the Quran too. Allah, if you look at the every every every Ayah, you look very deep into it, you say you see the seven layers of the outside meaning, and then you understand them all, you'll be able to start understanding the force the player. And then after that, you can know that Allah, he really mean business when he told you that he want as you want you to follow.
He really mean it. And he want to show you, how he show you by using your brain? Your brain is the tool that Allah created. How he created it? He said, he created the, he said, and he came. He said,. So whatever Allah ordered him to be, he did the. So he said, you are the right tool for me to be used, so the people as the people who will use that tool will be what? Will be using it to know what I want, what Allah want.
And this is our struggle in life. This is what Imam I'm sorry, this is what Imam Hussein struggled for. Imam Hussein struggled for, struggled for, he said, you know, I am the sign, I am the symbol for justice, I am the symbol for peace, I am the symbol for the right Imama, I am symbol for Wilayah, I am the reason that every single one will be, every single revolution, right revolution will be adopting me. That's why Gandhi adopted me.
That's why million people adopted me other than Gandhi, Gandhi, in in India, many people in history adopted the way Imam Hussein were teaching other people. So he is the symbol for that, and Allah talked about the life of Imam Hussein deeply in Surat al-Fajr. Surat al-Fajr from the very beginning to the very end is narrating the Imams Hussein story. If you open Surat al-Fajr, you say till the very end, all Surat al-Fajr, if you look at it and you put in mind Imam Hussein, you will see the story of Imam Hussein in inside you, inside inside the Surat al-Fajr.
In every Ayah, you'll see the Imams, in every Ayah, you see Sayyida Zahra how they took the the the the Wilayah from Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib, they how they do the for her, how they treat her bad, how they killed her, and how she was martyred, and how Imam Hussein he was martyred, and you'll see all this in Surat al-Fajr. But over here, they will tell you Imam Hussein is not mentioned by name. So we'll start thinking, where is exactly Imam Mahdi mentioned?
Where Allah mentioned Imam Mahdi in the Quran? And now we open that there's something that we we always do that always Imam told us to do. What is it? the Friday prayers. Allah he said what? He said, there is please go do it. When you wake up in, do, go take a shower every single, even if you want to buy the water with all the money that you you have, just go do it because with, I mean the every if you do it for 40, Allah will protect your body to the point that even if they put it in grave, it will look exactly the same.
It will never no microbes, no viruses will attack it. It will be exactly the same till . It will be the same body till . This is from the best thing Allah created the from the water of . Why why Allah he revealed in inside the Quran? Why? Because he was talking about the Jewish. He said about the Jewish that the holding books, they are like donkeys. And so I know Allah he's saying that there is Jewish for my nation too, for my for Islam.
And later we continue with the ayas till we hit something very particular. Every time you hit it, it will hit your head. If you go to while while the Imam is reciting , it will hit you in your in your ears. They say Bismillahirrahmanirrahim. Over here we will start hitting you. When I was trying to memorize , I was like doing it myself. Sometimes I couldn't go to pray it like as. So I always used to say . I used to say it like this.
But later when I went and I started praying in a masjid, the the Sheikh said, , not . There's something big here. Between fee and men, there is a huge difference. Let me tell you how. For example, now if I tell you please come to me in this day, or if I tell you come to me from that day. Now we have something huge like a big difference here. Allah he is telling you to go pray from that day. How? How is that? How can you pray from a day?
Who's that day is? Is it or someone called? And who is that is? Who is? And now you will start asking more questions. You will say, okay, if I'm going to say who is, I'm going to study what are the days is later, later. What exactly the days? So we open the book. We'll say Saturday. We open who's the for Saturday is for Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Every Saturday we visit, right? Over here, you say why called because Allah.
Saturday called Saturday because Allah. See it everything will start opening. If you look at Ahad, what who's Ahad? If you open the, you say. Why why called Ahad? Because he is the person who. He was the filter that he filtered every single one from. That's why Allah he gave for because it is he is the real name, he is the. That's why he said the best surah I used to always read it from the Quran. When this surah specifically revealed to Imam Ali he was like Badr.
He was like Badr there and nobody really understand. After 1400 years, collecting all this point, this information, we understand why Imam Ali was that better when when came. And then later we will say what? Monday Al-Ithnayn, it is by the definition two people, Al-Ithnayn, Muthanna. Even the name are Muthanna, who? Hassan and Hussein. You see everything now coming to be logical, logical, logical. And then we'll continue, we'll say, Tuesday.
For who? For three people, Thulatha, three people. Even the name Thulatha are referring to three people. Who they are? Ali ibn al-Hussein, Muhammad al-Baqir, and Ja'far al-Sadiq, salamullah alayhim. Three people, Thulatha. And and then why? Because they're three people? For that day, that's a completely different subject. Inshallah, we can reflect if we if we get the opportunity. Why? There is three only for third for Tuesday.
And then Wednesday, Al-Arba'a. Even by the name Arba'a, it will refer to four people. And who they are, those people? Musa al-Kadhim, Ali al-Rida, Muhammad al-Jawad, and Ali al-Hadi, salamullah alayhim. And from four, Allah Azza wa Jall created the Kaaba. From four, Allah Azza wa Jall created the Kaaba, and this is very important. It is, if you look at the Lughah Al-Arabiyyah, you will say Alif, Ba, Ta, Tha. If you look at Lughah Al-Arabiyyah.
If you before there were there was no point. So Allah Azza wa Jall, he will created the same shape for Ba three time, and then Alif for one time. Why? Because Allah Azza wa Jall is teaching you here trigonometry. He's teaching you how he created everything for for dimension. He created that because of those four people. And if you want to talk about this, it's a big subject, too. And then if you want to talk about Yawm al-Khamis, what is it?
It is for Imam Hasan al-Askari. And he gave him that name that only one day, because he is the real preparation for what we call, what we call it, for every Zahir, we have a big Batin. So if Imam Mahdi is the big Zahir for the Ummat Muhammad, a big Batin he has to pray prepare him, and he took the whole day. Al-Imam Hasan al-Askari, and we have a Friday for who? For Imam Sahib al-Asr wa al-Zaman. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَاةِ مِن يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاسْعَوْا إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ.
This is mean what? This is mean when Imam Mahdi is going to come, he's going to call you from that Yawm al-Jumuma'a. He is Yawm al-Jumuma'a. He is the real essence of Yawm al-Jumuma'a. That's why we do ikhtisal. Why? Because it is the representation of the pahara that is going to come during Imam Mahdi time. That's why if you do it 40 days, it is like you are re-born. Because why? Because when a pregnant woman, she's pregnant, she she need 40 weeks to deliver the the baby.
We are we need 40 weeks of ikhtisal Yawm al-Jumuma'a to all our zunub to go, and we prepare for Sahib al-Asr wa al-Zaman. This is the real secret with it. Now, okay, if we continue more, those Qu'ranin will tell you you still didn't make any sense. Why? Because there's nothing mentioned here for Imam Sahib al-Asr wa al-Zaman. We tell them, hold on. Hold on, there's something coming inside this ayah. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَاةِ مِن يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاسْعَوْا إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَذَرُوا الْبَيْعَ.
What is that? What is the meaning of zharu al-bay'a mean leave your trading? Leave your business. But I want to ask you, if what is the plural for bay'a? When you do bay'a, you do bay'a for someone, like you give it you give him, in Islam we have something called bay'a, this is mean I uba'uka, mean you are my leader. What does what is the plural for zharu al-bay'a? I mean for bay'a? It is bay'. The plural for bay'a, it is bay'.
We continue, we skip the leave trading and then we go directly to the after ayah, we say, وَإِذَا رَأَوْا تِجَارَةً أَوْ لَهْوًا انفَضُّوا إِلَيْهَا وَتَرَكُوكَ قَائِمًا. What we call Sahib al-Asr wa al-Zaman, qa'im al-Muhammad? Over here in in this ayah we say, وَإِذَا رَأَوْا تِجَارَةً أَوْ لَهْوًا انفَضُّوا إِلَيْهَا وَتَرَكُوكَ قَائِمًا. Who's qa'im? We left Sahib al-Asr wa al-Zaman qa'im. So Allah Azza wa Jall he is telling you that Yawm al-Jumuma'a is Imam Mahdi.
Is the is from the essence of Imam Mahdi. Yawm al-Jumuma'a is mentioned as Al-Qa'im ibn al-Hasan al-Askari. Sallu 'ala Muhammad wa Ali Muhammad. Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa Ali Muhammad. So we prove here from that point that Allah Azza wa Jall talked about Imam Mahdi by name. He told him you are qa'im, qa'im ummat Muhammad. And that's why when you are qa'im, قُلْ مَا عِندَ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِّنَ اللَّهْوِ وَمِنَ التِّجَارَةِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الرَّازِقِينَ.
Say to them to those people who said you're not qa'im, اللَّهُ عِندَهُ خَيْرٌ مِّنَ اللَّهْوِ وَمِنَ التِّجَارَةِ. What what with Allah Azza wa Jall is better, more beneficial than business and then doing trading with the with the with religion. Many people are doing trading now with religion. And then we flip to different page. They say, okay, now you mentioned who is Imam Mahdi inside the Quran. Can you prove where Allah Azza wa Jall mentioned Yazid in the Quran?
Is it, is it uh uh like something good that he mentioned? No, he's not. But he's just show who is the symbol? He is show he's symbolizing how much he's bad, how much he's he's the symbol of every single one. For example, Saddam Hussein, he is the Yazid. Some people he's they're Yazid. Every Aasr has its own Yazid. A couple three days ago we talked about the digital Yazid. And then we have many Yazid. So that Yazid, he is the symbol, the main symbol.
Where Allah Azzawajal mentioned them? He'll say, بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم. وما جعلنا الرؤيا التي أريناك إلا فتنة للناس والشجرة الملعونة في القرآن. Allah Azzawajal he is talking here about a dream that Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam he dreamed, and then there's a shajara mal'oona fi al-Quran. Every Muslim, every Ahl al-Sunnah, and we have narration even from Sahih al-Bukhari that we say shajara mal'oona fi al-Quran are Bani Umayyah.
Even Uthman himself, if you want to debate with Sunnis, they will tell you, "We debate you with Abu Bakr, we debate you with Umar, but we won't debate you with Uthman." They tell you he is the dhul noorain. He has two noor, why? Because they say he married two daughters for Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. And that is completely wrong. What Uthman, he married two daughters where Khadija, she has a sister, and her sister had two daughters, and he married those two sisters.
Why? Because Khadija
