First Sermon-
Brother Anwar
Acquiring the knowledge of the religion is an obligation upon every Muslim
It's an obligation upon every accountable Muslim
The one who Allaah
Wills
will acquire religious knowledge
The belief in Allah and His Messenger is the best of the deeds
Pertaining to the belief is of six matters
Faith is to believe in Allah and His
Angels
Knowing about the
Angels
is obligatory
The
Angels
are real
Believing the
Angels
is among the greatest matters of faith
"We believe in the
Angels
and the
Prophets
"
The
Angels
are slaves of Allah
Angels
are created from light
They are bodies
They are not able to be grasped by hand
They are very very subtle
Even more subtle than air
When air moves you can feel it, but when Angels move you cannot feel it
They can take forms
They do not eat or drink
Alaah gives them the power to do things without eating or drinking
They don't have offsprings
Angels have a will of their own
It is the case for all the
Angels
that they always choose to obey Allah
Angels
do not get drunk or fornicate
They are all highly pious believers
Among all of Allah's creations they are the greatest in number
The Prophets are the best of the creations
Prophet Muhammad than
Prophet Ibrahim
Some
Angels
have a special status
After the
Angels
(elite Angels) it is the pious Muslims
It can be acquired by any of us
After the pious Muslims it is the regular Angels
Angels
have different responsibilities
Some
Angels
deal with the cloud and rain
There are Angels of mercy and Angels of torture
Some Angels wander the Earth
The
Arsh
is the ceiling of paradise
Every person is given an
Angel
and a
Jinn
There are
Angels
who write down deeds done by a person
Some
Angels
follow a person when they enter a circle of knowledge
The whole world he sees it like a person sees their palms and fingers, the Angel of Death
He has multiple bodies that are under the control of one soul
They can take beautiful forms
Believing in the
Angels
is an obligation
Second Sermon-
Idk his name
I advice you to fear Allah
Hajj is an important obligation
For one's Hajj to be accepted they must do the integrals and avoid the invalidators
The way to know these matters is by learning them from a trustworthy scholar
Not by reading in a book
This man he misunderstood the steps for Hajj
1.
The
intention
This intention is not valid unless it's in the month of Hajj
2.
To be in the area of...
3.
To Make Tawaf, circle around the Ka'ba 7 times
4.
After one has performed Tawaf...
5.
Shave the head. Women are not allowed to shave the head
6.
To maintain the order, the intention has to be done first
Not doing these obligation does not invalidate the Hajj, but one is sinful
They throw 7 pebbles
There are prohibitions
Having sexual intercourse
Learn these matters before going to Hajj
Do not follow by imitation
May Allah end our lives on Islam

Some things are required for the contract to be valid
It has to be pure (
najas
free)
Some things you can't buy but you can still acquire
Statues are
Haram
, a baby doll is permissible to get it, but you cannot buy it
A person gives it to you for free
Riba is a category that has different things
Interest
Gold
Silver
Food
In the case of gold if you want to sell gold for gold it has to be the same amount
You can't say with the tongue "I'll pay you back later"
I'll sell your 2lb of gold for your 1 lb. This is
Haram
They have to have the same weight
Gold is measured in weight
It is permissible to exchange gold with paper, it does not have to be the same weight
The same rules for gold and silver applies to food
They have to know the exact amount
if it is mixed
If you do not know the exact amount you cannot exchange
If it is mixed, liquid and solid than you have to know the exact amount of each
It would be considered " " if you do not know the exact amount
If it's a large portion you can exchange but you have to know the exact amount
Interest is
Haram
I'll loan you $10,000 only if you pay me back $20,000
The purpose of loan is to help those in need
The
JEWS
love interest
Riba/Interest leads to
robbery
"I'll let you borrow my car if you let me hold you xbox for a week"
Haram
"I'll give you a ride if you pay for my gas"
Haram
What's
Haram
is to say the condition with the tongue
After the contract has been done there's a period of time you can go back on the contract
If you're in the same session you can chang your mind
Each scenario has it's definition of separation
The limit is three days
If you do the deal with a non-Muslim than the benefit goes to the Muslim
"Can I borrow $50, I'll pay you back $100" this is
Haram
Because they are making the gift a condition for the loan
Don't ever fight over money
It is permissible to exchange money for other paper money
Copyright and patents are
Haram
As long as the service has a religiously recognized benefit
6pm Brother Anwar
Class
Alaah is attributed with numerous attributes, not just 13 or 99
Some attributes were mentioned numerous times in the Qur'an
Allah must be attributed with
Power
It is an attribute of Himself
Allah creates with His
Power
He takes things out of existence
When we say "things" we mean the creations
The
mental possibility and intellectual possibility
He said "Allah has the Power to have a child"
That is
Blasphemy
We don't say Allah has the Power to have a child
Having a child is an attribute of the creation
The child resembles the parent
No one resmebles Allah.
No Similarity
So Allah does not have children
The
Power
of Allah is not related to the
mental impossibility
We do not say neither
It is impossible for Allah to have a child
You can say about the creation that he is weak
The power of the creation is limited
It is
blasphemous
to attribute to Allah attributes of weakness and attributes of deficiency
If something is impossible we do not say that Allah created that
Rather we say that the
Power
of Allah is not related to the
mental impossibility
Allah is not related to the
mental impossibility
The atheists try to confuse the believer
The question itself is flawed
It is saying that the impossible is possible
We respond by saying that the question is flawed
Because the question involves a contradiction
He is asking, "can the Eternal One create another eternal?" invalid question
The question is flawed
Does the one with no beginning have a beginning- contradiction
The One who is eternal always exists
We don't say yes or no
It is
blasphemy
to attribute to Allah weakness
We say the
Power
of Allah is not related to the
mental impossibility
We don't say yes or no
The sound
mind
necessitates that there is a God
The
mind
does not accept it's nonexistence
There is a difference between "existence" and something "coming into existence"
When we say "existence" that can refer to the creation or the Creator
When we say "brought into existence" that only refers to the creation
The more one studies these matters the more quickly they can comprehend it
The
Knowledge
of Allah is eternal
He knows about Himself
He knows about His creations even though they are not eternal
Allah is not attributed with learning
His
Knowledge
encompasses everything
Anything that has created attributes is created
Everything that exists has attributes
Something does not exist without having attributes
If something has created attributes it did not exist before it's attributes
Acquiring new knowledge is an attribute of the creation
Not knowing is ignorance
Attributing to Allah ignorance is
blasphemy
Saying that Allah received new knowledge is
blasphemy
The Qur'an is filled with guidance
He knew with his eternal
Knowledge
that there would be weakness in you
Allah eternally knew everything
He test the creations
Life is a test
He gave us the will by which we choose
We have a will by which we choose
Allah
knew
eternally
It becomes apparent for us who is obedient and who is disobedient
Life is among the necessary attributes of Allah
The evidence is the existance of the creations
With our sound senses it is confirmed
Allah is not a self that is composed of smaller parts
There is no self like the self of Allah
No one has attributes like Allah
No one creates other than Allah
Once you know the meaning it's easy to clarify to others
It is not
Oneness
in reference to numbers
No one is like him whatsoever
The evidence is that the Creator must be attributed with
Life
To say that there are two Creators is
blasphemy
Two different wills is possible
Each one of them is not forced to will what the other willed
Whatever is forced is weak, whatever is weak is not God
It's impossible for both of their wills to come into existence
The weak one is not attributed with Godhood
Anything other than Allah is a creation
They are in need of the one who brought it into existence
All of the creations have a beginning
The best of the centuries is Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) his century
