Keywords

💡Worship

Worship in the script is defined as anything that one loves, obeys, or relies upon the most. It emphasizes that everyone worships something, whether it's money, desires, or friends. The speaker illustrates this by explaining that people often prioritize these over everything else, which becomes an act of worship.

💡Creation

Creation refers to the act of originating something from nothing. The speaker contrasts human creations, like Elon Musk's self-driving cars, which rearrange existing materials, with Allah's ability to create from absolute nothingness. This concept is used to highlight the uniqueness of divine creation.

💡Absolute Truth

Transcripts

these verses that we read I was

reflecting on them for I think an hour

and a half before this class I read them

once twice three times looked into what

the scholars have said then played it on

repeat whilst I was making my breakfast

and I was just listening and listening

and listening and the more I listened to

it the more I realized that these verses

literally shut every non-m muslim's

belief systems and then gives you the

solution

because never does Allah give you a

problem except that he gives you a

solution and so let's go through these

verses to kind of see where I'm coming

from with this Allah he

says ask them oh Prophet ask the

disbelievers can any of your associate

Gods the things that you worship

originate creation and then resurrect it

now just so that we have a deep deep

deep understanding what is worship we've

spoken about the many times worship can

be broken down into three aspects

anything that you love the most is an

act of worship meaning everyone worships

something because everyone loves

something the

most everything that you obey the most

is also an act of worship which means

everyone also worships something from

that perspective and everything you rely

upon the most is also an act of worship

and so this obedience love and Reliance

are all acts of worship because anything

you do that the most with is something

that you have taken as a God so for

example with money there's many people

that love money more than everything

money is their god without a shadow of a

doubt there's many people that love

going out and clubbing and partying and

just wasting time and drinking alcohol

and doing all these things this is also

an act of worship there's many people

that rely upon their friends for their

decisions in life to the point where

they only only focus on their friends

where their friends control their

behaviors day to today this is an act of

worship but there's many people that

obey their desires over everything even

if it's something that hurts people

doesn't hurt people or what they

perceive as the truth or not the truth

they follow their desires all the time

these are all the kind of different kind

of things that people worship day in day

out and Allah is saying here can any of

these things that you worship your drugs

your alcohol your money your celebrities

your everything anything that you can

worship can they originate creation well

if you ask yourself that question of

course not there's none of these things

can originate creation but then someone

might say actually this you know

celebrity created a car like Tesla for

example Elon Mosk he created he invented

a self-driving car but that's not

originating creation because they're

using the materials that Allah has

already created in order to create

something else they're just rearranging

what Allah has already given them to

create something truly the only being

that can originate creation is Allah and

that's why Allah

says is Allah only Allah that can

originate creation from absolute nothing

and then return it he can do whatever he

wants and then Allah

says how can you then be deluded from

the truth because it's a delusion to

think that anyone can just create from

nothing other than Allah is a delusion

then Allah goes to the second question

he says

say oh Prophet to these disbelievers can

any of these associate Gods this money

your friends your celebrities whatever

it is that you worship can any of them

Guide to the truth well think about it

anyone can guide you to something you

can be guided to answers for your

homework for example you can be guided

to how to make more money online you can

be guided to a million different things

but the truth the objective truth is it

the case that there are people out there

that can guide you to the objective

truth just look at the state of humanity

can we say that there's anyone out there

that can guide us to the absolute truth

when every single country on the face of

the planet can't even agree on each

other's rulings and laws that they have

run their country

with even people whatever it comes to

they disagree with each other and have

different opinions on what's right and

what's wrong one country might say this

is right one country might say this is

is the legal age for marriage one

country might say this is the legal age

to drink alcohol everyone has their

different opinions and then you look at

the gender interactions with Society

there's people that say women are like

this men are like that and then there's

an other side of the spectrum

everything's just so

subjective can they guide you to the

objective truth look at the laws that

are around us look at the ideologies

that we have in every aspect of life

there's always people that say no that's

correct no that's correct there's even

loads of Tik Tok videos which are really

funny actually where it's like people

pretending to eat air oxygen and then

like on the top of the video they have

different dietitians saying don't eat

meat don't eat vegetables don't drink

you know tap water don't drink orange

juice and it's just like playing those

and it's like what do I eat then just

oxygen and he's just pretending like

this and it's like a funny video

basically right so whatever it comes to

in life gender interactions food laws of

a country everything people just cannot

agree on what is correct and what is not

and so when Allah says is there any of

these gods that you worship these people

these things that you worship that can

guide you to the absolute truth and when

you think like that you think absolutely

not it is only Allah the one who

originates creation that can do that and

that's why Allah

says tell them it is only Allah that

guides to the absolute truth you want

any form of absolute truth you go to

Allah subhana T himself and then Allah

asks they know the question which makes

the people who thinks that they can find

guidance without Allah a question that

just leaves them in a state of

humiliation who is the one that was that

is more worthy to be followed the one

who guides to the truth so obviously

we've gone through this process of

understanding that absolute truth can

come from Allah and Allah is saying

who's worthy who's more worthy of being

followed the one who guides to the truth

or the one who cannot find the way

unless they themselves are guided if you

think about it every human being is born

with not a clue with what's going on in

life they have no idea and they grow up

seeking guidance from everywhere around

them their parents guide them for a bit

then they go to school and their

teachers guide them a little bit so they

learn about certain topics in school

then they maybe grow up a little bit and

they go to UNI and then they start a job

and a business and they're always just

reaching for guidance for other things

can you take guidance from someone who

is in that state

Allah is asking you can you take

guidance from someone who is in that

state who they need guidance or would

you take guidance to the absolute truth

from the one who Bears the absolute

truth and that's why Allah finishes the

verse he

says what is the matter with you Allah

just straight away says it what's the

matter with you are you okay are you not

using your intellect how can you judge

like

this and so Allah has painted these two

beautiful questions for you that are so

deep and so packed

that they just make you realize that

Allah is the only way if I want any kind

of guidance in how I dress how I conduct

myself what my mannerisms should be how

I should worship Allah correctly

anything in life it must come from Allah

and only Allah and no one else and

that's why in the next verse Allah

says most of the people they follow

nothing except

assumptions how many people out there

they say yes this is the truth and they

follow it yes Jesus died for our sins

100% And they follow it well it's just

an assumption can you prove it can you

could you have anything tangible for for

us to know that if it's the truth or

not surely assumptions can in no way

replace the truth you can have all the

assumptions that you want in your entire

life you can be so confident but no

matter how high your confidence is your

assumptions mean nothing when it comes

to the truth and then Allah says

Allah is indeed all knowing of what they

do because when you have false

assumptions in your belief system

they'll reflect in your actions and

Allah knows your beliefs and he knows

your actions as

well so in these three verses Allah has

shattered every single ideology out

there every single belief system whether

you're an atheist whether you're a Hindu

whether you're a Christian whether

you're a Jew whether you're anything he

shattered it but never does Allah give a

problem except that he gives a solution

because you can say that about Islam

don't these verses kind of shut Islam

because you don't have conviction can't

people say that couldn't that be their

reot of course and that's why in the

verse after Allah straight away

addresses the

Quran it is not possible for this Quran

to have been produced by anyone other

than

Allah IE in these two verses that we've

just read Allah has told you he's the

one that originates that originates

creation from nothing and you are arve

to that conclusion then you realize that

Allah is the only one who can give you

the absolute truth because people cannot

do that no one can do that because

they're always disagreeing with each

other then Allah says this Quran that

you're reading right now is only

produced by Allah there's no way it's

produced by anyone other than Allah so

Allah's given you the solution now but

then Allah continues look at this then

Allah

says or do they claim that he made it up

because now obviously if you say that to

any non-muslim they going to say well

how can you prove that the Quran is from

Allah these all just assumptions as well

right and so that's going to be their

claim and so in the next verse Allah

says or do they claim that he made it up

straight away Allah addresses that

instantly then Allah tells the prophet

how to respond to

[Music]

them tell them oh Prophet respond to

them when they ask you about this

because inevitably they're going to ask

you about this tell tell them to produce

even one chapter like it and tell them

to find help from anyone that they want

other than Allah if what they say is

true and this doesn't mean sit there and

try and you know write down a chapter

that is like the Quran and show that

it's better than the Quran literally

take any Scripture the world has created

go to every corner of the earth go to

the philosophers the Christians the Jews

the atheists take any book off the shelf

open it and look at what it says about

what life is what the purpose is where

we're going what is correct what is not

correct show show us the Miracles that

they bring forth with open any book any

Scripture that any human being has

created from the beginning of time until

now and compare it with just one chapter

of this Quran if what you say is true

and you'll realize that it is not true

whatsoever it is the Quran that stands

at the Pinnacle on the top without

shadow of a doubt 100% of the time

and then Allah says when the prophet

gives them this answer Allah tells us

how they're going to respond before they

even

respond in fact they just hastily reject

the Quran without even comprehending it

how many people you speak to you go to

them and you say hey man the Quran we

have proofs that is the truth and they

say nope it's not the truth they don't

want to hear it they don't even want to

listen to the proofs they don't even

want to listen to what the Quran is

trying to say nope they just outright

reject it for no reason reason how many

people are like that you present them

with facts you present them with with

figures and they just turn away and they

say nope I'm you know it's like they're

blind and then Allah

says similarly those before them were in

denial they've all they all follow the

same path human beings follow the same

patterns see then what is the end of the

wrongdoers I.E on the day of judgment

they will all see what is correct and

what is not correct and then Allah

says some of them will eventually

believe in it if you constantly ask them

these questions and they think and they

think and they think but others are not

going to believe and Allah knows best

who the corruptors are this next verse

is going to teach me and you the best

way to persist in da when we interact

with people Allah then says after he's

given you all these arguments he's given

you all of these verses he says

says Allah says if they deny you after

all of that after presenting the truth

to them Crystal Clear if they deny and

they walk away just say my Deeds are

mine and your Deeds are yours you go and

do whatever you want I'll do whatever I

want you are free of what I do and I am

free of what you do because on that day

that's when everything is going to be

brought to account why is this verse so

significant because when you guys go out

there and you speak to people don't get

caught up in debates once you make the

truth clear to that person and they

persist in disbelief Allah has told you

here that they're going to continue

persisting in disbelief some of them

will believe some will of them will end

up not believing but once you've laid

out the truth for them move to the next

person because they are going to take up

your time they're going to waste your

time and they're going to drive you

insane you've given them the truth they

don't want to accept it you've made

crystal clear to them this is when you

know when to remove yourself from the

conversation and go to the next

person but sadly what we see people do

today is they sit and they debate and

they debate and they debate day after

day day after dat and then they could

have helped like 10 20 30 more people

that were actually willing to listen but

they stuck to that one person so this is

a powerful da listen from Allah himself

and so these verses are so incredibly

powerful
