Prophet Sheeth (AS)

  • Adam (AS)
  • Had a son named Sheeth(AS)... Or Seth
  • And Sheeth... Was a gift
  • And even the name Sheeth means gift
  • Sheeth was a gift
  • That was given by Allah SWT to Adam(AS)
  • After the death of his son Habil
  • Habil was a righteous son
  • A righteous servant of Allah (AZA WA JAL
  • So Adam as a righteous man who was attached to Habil
  • And when he lost Habil
  • He was very upset
  • So Allah AZA WA JAL replaced Habil
  • With Sheeth (AS)
  • Not only a righteous man but a Prophet and a Messenger of Allah
  • And Adam named him Sheeth as a gift
  • The gift of Allah (SWT)
  • This son of Adam was very close to him
  • He obeyed his instructions
  • He learned from his father
  • He actually used to
  • Remind his brothers and nephews and so on
  • And grand nephews
  • Whilst Adam (AS) was alive as well
  • He continued to remind
  • And to remind people of the beginning
  • Because there was nothing else to remind them about
  • At that particular time
  • Besides to worship Allah alone
  • And how Shaytaan had made a promise and so on
  • And Sheth, after the death of his father Adam(AS)
  • He ruled... The children of Adam
  • And he ruled with justice
  • He ruled in accordance to Allah's law
  • And he brought unity between the people around him
  • But Shaytaan...
  • Could not stop his plotting
  • On the other hand
  • Qabil and the descendants of Qabil
  • Grew and grew more than
  • The people around Sheeth
  • One of the sons known as Qabil or Kane
  • He had aggressiveness in his behaviour
  • He had greed, he had arrogance
  • He was a tough character
  • Difficult to get along with
  • So what he did
  • He decided to depart (to leave the rest)
  • And to go away on his own
  • Somewhere very far away
  • So... Adam (AS) prior to his death
  • He used to live with Sheet AS
  • And with all these other children of his
  • In the mountain regions in the mountains
  • And now this young man decided
  • Or Qabil decided to go... To the valleys
  • And to go to the flat land
  • Somewhere further away
  • Later on Sheeth AS
  • Was given an instruction by Allah SWT
  • Part of his Sharia (law) was that...
  • It was prohibited to mix...
  • With the people who were gone on to the other side
  • Now there was a distinct sign
  • You could see very clearly
  • The men for Qabil's side were not very good looking
  • We heard about that
  • And the women were very good looking
  • When it comes to where Sheeth AS and the rest of them were
  • The men were very good looking
  • And the women... We're not that good looking
  • According to narrations
  • I'm not obviously speaking from my own pocket here
  • It says that Iblis
  • He made himself to the form of a young boy
  • Like an apprentice
  • And he went to a blacksmith
  • Who used to work with metal
  • And he asked if he could be an apprentice... For that blacksmith
  • And what he did was...
  • He worked for him and he designed a flute
  • And with that flute he came out
  • And he introduced it to everyone
  • He slowly started making sounds
  • Sound that people had never heard before
  • Because there were no sounds that people had heard
  • That was the beginning of time
  • And now he took
  • He created a little drum... And he beat it
  • And everybody would come... What's that sound?
  • And they would come around him and watch
  • Then he got a bit of metal and he started hitting it
  • And then it created a sound
  • And they came
  • And then he made a Bugle and he started blowing into it
  • And it created a sound and they came
  • And they were excited... Wow these people are intelligent
  • They have advanced much more than us
  • And they got so engrossed in it
  • That they slowly started forgetting the commands of Allah (SWT)
  • On the other hand... Sheeth AS kept on reminding his people
