Surah al Jathiyah.......ayat 25 to ayat 31, shaykh ameen aziz

friends, dato and tansri,


we have grown used to ustaz shamsuri's fiery commentary , but for commentary of ayat 12 and beyond, he has disappeared into thin air! he is no where to be found in 'cyberspace'!
i miss him.

let us listen instead to shaykh ameen aziz commentary of ayat 25 to 31


dr nik isahak

ps : ladies and gentlemen, we take a break from tafseer here for 4 weeks in december..
       i am checking on the 'malady or madness' that has enveloped ksa nowadays that lead them 
       to be fighting wars with fellow muslims on all front; after which i am off to turkey to see             for  myself why 
       america and the west hate erdogan.......my gut feeling is , when you have the historicity and         pedigree such as the turks, strong economy and strong leadership, that is  when               these'...tards'         hate you most, and try to de-stabilise 
       you!

       just wanting to check the pulse and auscultate the heart of these two divergent people..
       one, shameless, boring and dry with obvious lack of class and another steeped with 
       history and pedigree, the pedigree of a people who carried their long boat over 
       mountains, cross the turbulent bhosporus strait and beat the hell out of the romans!
        









And when Our clear revelations are recited unto them their only argument is that they say: Bring (back) our fathers. then, if ye are truthful. (25) Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Allah giveth life to you, then causeth you to die, then gathereth you unto the Day of Resurrection whereof there is no doubt. But most of mankind know not. (26) And unto Allah belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; and on the day when the Hour riseth, on that day those who follow falsehood will be lost. (27) And thou wilt see each nation crouching, each nation summoned to its record. (And it will be said unto them): This day ye are requited what ye used to do. (28) This Our Book pronounceth against you with truth. Lo! We have caused (all) that ye did to be recorded. (29) Then, as for those who believed and did good works, their Lord will bring them in unto His mercy. That is the evident triumph. (30) And as for those who disbelieved (it will be said unto them): Were not Our revelations recited unto you? But ye were scornful and became a guilty folk. (31)

shaykh ameen aziz, commentary of ayat 25 to ayat 31


26 : 15      ' didnt my qur'an came to you dato'.... but you were too arrogant then....'




Then, even after that, your hearts were hardened and became as rocks, or worse than rocks, for hardness. For indeed there are rocks from out which rivers gush, and indeed there are rocks which split asunder so that water floweth from them. And indeed there are rocks which fall down for the fear of Allah. Allah is not unaware of what ye do. (al baqarah : 74)

Surah al Jathiyah.........commentary by dr daoud al nassimi & ustaz shamsuri

friends, dato and tansri,

a well known dato friend of mine commented the other day, '' why dr nik, you have to be always full of brimstone and fire?''......" can't you be nice and simple like most of us? "

i retorted back to the good dato,
  
"in actual life i am actually very nice dato. you can ask my nurses at sjmc whether i ever shouted at them over the last 33 years and you will get a resounding NO! 

but we are now 2/3rd of the way in the qur'an and heading towards more makkan revelations than madinan, so it is not my wrong doing.....makkan surah are generally explosive, philosophical, oftentimes cynical,and full of fire..."

"surah al jathiyah is one of them. but dont get me wrong dato. 
islam is not about preventing people from being creative, millionaires or billionaire, or excellent leaders and rulers. in fact it is the reverse.....it is about excellence; excellence in poverty and in wealth; excellence even when one is  'nothing' and even when one is all powerful and rich."

the stories are too many to narrate here. but let us just quote two narrative out of the many from well known sahih traditions. or may be three, if my memory of the third story does not fail me. i may be off the mark in term of exact wording, pardon me.

during umar's reign as kalifah ar rashidin, a certain jew felt his land in bagdad was wrongly taken  at low value by the then governor of the time to give space for his new istana'a extension.
a common theme in malaysia, especially now.

no amount of complain to 'mpsj' of that city could get any action from the administrators below the governor. the jew  gave up  with the local authorities and decided to travel to madinah to air his objection to the caliph himself.

at  high noon, on reaching the periphery of madinah  he saw a tall, shirtless man, having a siesta away from the hot sun, under the shade of a date tree. the jew woke him up to ask for direction to caliph umar's palace.

" why do you want to see him?......", umar asked. the jew retold his dissatisfaction.

" i am uamr , the caliph", and umar asked him to go collect some bones from a dead camel nearby. he scribbled something and asked the jew to return to baghdad and give the message on the dried bone to his governor in baghdad.

the governor was recalled immediately, pending investigation.......mashaallah!
and the complainant was not even a dato sri or tansri of that time, just an unhappy jew in far away baghdad!



2nd scenario and this must have been 15 to 20 years post nabi.

madinah was shakened by the din and noise of a massive camel train just arriving from syam.
it belonged to billionaire-extraordinaire, abdul rahman bin auf, one of nabi's [ pbuh] close sahabat. the 'caravan train' stretched from one end of madinah to the other end of the city...a 600 something long camel train, bringing goods and goodies from syam.

on hearing the din and the noise mother of the faithful, sayyeditina aisyah lookedout of her window and asked her khadam as to what was the commotion.

" it is abdul rhman bin auf's caravan, madam..", answered the khadam.

"go see him and send my regards to him....and tell him, i want  to remind him about what nabi told him years back...", or something to that effect.

after aisyah's khadam  saw abdul rahman, abdul rahman sat down on the ground and cried unconsolably

" oh no! no ! no!.....i don't want to enter heaven last amongst the sahabat, leaping like a frog..!.i want to be walking like the rest!"

abdul rahman called his  GM and immediately asked him to distribute all the goods and goodies to the have-not of madinah.

....and here in 2017, we have hereditary rulers and political numero unos all across the globe , especially from the muslim hinterland , still unhappy with their worldly loot and wanting more and more. 

especially from the muslim hinterland. the rest of the non muslim lands have gone on a better SOP.  and we wonder why after so many years the chinese in malaysia , very few revert to islam!

just the other day i was enjoying a mandi yemeni dish in downtown KL. the restaurant was on the ground floor of a brand new 40 storey corporate building.

omg! 
i was told that it belong to one of the junior ministers of the present cabinet , now retired.
he must have saved even when he was not yet in his mother's womb!
let us not ask about his boss...we will get permanent migraine.



i will bore you with a third story.

one very hot summer's day, nabi [ pbuh] had nothing to eat in his house. not even a mussel of food or cool water to even drink. as with the custom of that time, he tied a tightened a rope around his waist with a stone positioned right smack at the stomach region , to reduce his pangs of hunger.

he went out of his house in search of food, and met saydina abu bakar, along the way, also in the same predicament. along the way to the periphery of madinah they met sayyedina umar, also as hungry as them. lo and behold, a sahabat saw the three esteemed individuals and invited them into his house. the sahabat was obviously elated. he served the three luminaries some dried dates and cool water to drink, while he went out to slaughter his kibbash for a proper meal.

"gentlemen, in the yaumiddin we all will be asked and answerable for this pleasure......", nabi[pbuh] retorted.

omg! answerable for some dried dates and several sip of cool water!

we have the whole damn cabinet  and the untouchable upper than the upper crust ,'raping  and reaping the country' high and dry, like an organized gang rape, and everyone of them moving around like  there is no tomorrow! 
...and with no shame!
that is the state of 'state islam', in 2017.


gentlemen,with this harrowing intro ,we  can now move on to surah al jathiyah.

first, listen to the beautiful and haunting rendition by qari, shaykh abdul rahman al ossi.
followed up by an overview of the surah by dr daoud al nassimi, in english.
our favourite ustaz shamsuri will do his commentary of the 1st eleven ayat of the surah, as usual in 'bahasa'.

enjoy them.

36 : 05  'on your knees'..another surah full of brimstone and fire, i am afraid , dato and tansri.

1:01 :08 'kalau hang tak mahu pakai qur'an hang jangan kata hang ni islam! '

1:15:18   'hang tak pegang qur'an hang tak ada cahaya......'



                 

Before We move On to Surah al Jathiyah.........Still on the subject of Zikr

friends, dato and tansri,


shaykh ninowy from atlanta , georgia,usa,  originally born and breed from aleppo, syria.
formerly an assoc prof in biochemistry and anatomy, and steeped in the oral tradition of the ugama under the tutelage of his late father and many well known scholars  in the tradition, shaykh ninowy is a founder of madina institute based in usa.

syria, before the 'rape' by usa and the allies, even with blemish, carbuncle and all, was then still the centre of learning. now people are bathing and drinking in their own sewer. 
thanks to america and the west, with their dirty fingers, planning and forever scheming!

but back to our subject , shaykh ninowy.....

a frequent visitor to our shores, i had the extreme priveledge of meeting him personally some three years back in ipoh, and took ba'yah with the shaykh.

His lineage is traced back to the prophet Muhammad [pbuh], through his grandson Hussein ibn Ali by way of Musa al-Kadhim.  this is the reason why i feel very priveledged...to get ilm from one who has touch the the hand of another, and another , and another, and another...a contigous, unbroken chain of oral tradition, and finally all traced back to rasullallah [pbuh].


'stations of zikr', will be the last instalment on the subject of zikr, after which we will move on to surah al jathiyah....and an appropriate one too as shaykh ninowy is a seasoned'traveler and teacher of the path'.

do enjoy this very profound discourse from a practitioner and tok guru himself!

0:05:50    1st degree,be in the zikr of allah when you forget other than HIM
                2nd degreee, be in the zikr of allah when you forget yourself in your zikr of HIM
                3rd level, the level of the elite, be in the zikr of allah when you forget yourself and your                        zikr of HIM.
                4th level..........when you are in HIS zikr.
                                        level of the anbiya and waliallah

0:15:15    zikr is opposite of ghaflah [ heedlessness, absentism of the heart ]. it is about presence.

0:23:15    70 times is not 69 plus one. it means a lot.

0:28:05    'concealed zikr', ridding yourself from boredom and weakness.
                 of loading dose and maintainence dose.


0:31:08     diversify your zikr.
                 zikr is like a bouquet of flowers!

0:33:34    taste the sweetness of zikr.
                mahabbah, yearning.


39:14       ''samir; samar" , tranquility with allah,;  usually happens at night.

49:10       allah in zikr of you...allah envelopes you with HIS love : the ultimate in closeness.


1:03:20     the moment you become people of zikr, syaitan will pay special attention to you and                             works harder on you . you will be it's 'special project'.

Before We Move On to Surah al Jathiyah...........'The Power of Zikr'

friends, dato and tansri,

nabi [pbuh] would often tell his companions, "Shall I tell you about the best of deeds, the most pure in the Sight of your Lord, about the one that is of the highest order and is far better for you than spending gold and silver, even better for you than meeting your enemies in the battlefield where you strike at their necks and they at yours?" 

The companions replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" 

" zikrullah. "

 [    exceprt from "Remembrance of Allah" from sunan al termidzi ;, ibnu majjah; muwata imam malik;, al baihaqi  ]



the natural sequence from knowing oneself, is remembrance, being aware and conscious of allah every moment of our waking life.

an emir, president or sultan who remembers allah throughout his waking life will be more careful when he talks down to the public. he would take into his view, the spectrum of halal and haram and within the halal, the whole gamut of views and the various ijtihad ulama.

his, is no longer a private view, but a conglomeration of views and coming from his mouth must be wisdom. if he finds this rather confusing,then it would be better for him to shut up, rather than reveal his ignorance to public odium.

he would certainly avoid excesses such as building billion rm istana  or excessive lifestlye even from his own funding , let alone from public coffers.

a pm who remembers allah will be more careful not to accidentally take billions of public fund into  his personal account. if he does he better explain.

a neurosurgeun who constantly remembers allah , even while operating on, or ,in and around, people's brain will have allah 'assisting him' in his surgeries in time of dire difficulties, oftentimes than not. 

a senior public servant  will keep away from corruption and nepotism.

......and the list can go on and on.
this, my dear dato', friends and tansri, is experiential islam at its best!

listen!

shaykh hamza yusuf  'zikr of the heart'

i was snorkelling in krabi some 2 years ago, alone, some 0.5 km from the shore.
a wee bit of fear, because the rest of my group were already heading back to shore.

during inspiration, the wheezing sound through the breathing tube [ 'allaaaaah'.....], followed by the hissing sound of expiration ['huuuuuu'...], with bubbles moving up
....omg! an epiphany of spiritual experience.

snorkeling was never the same again.........
now whenever i have difficulty in sleeping, i just imagine myself snorkeling in krabi,
.....allaaaaaah......huuuu......allaaaaah ....huuuuu.
in no time i get to sleep, and oftentimes wakes up with ,

before we move on to surah al jathiyah........'knowing ourselves' : shaykh aleey abdul qadir

"Bismillahi Majreha wa Mursaha inna Robbi la ghafururRohiim" -

(In the name of Allah its sailing and its anchorage. My Lord is Ever Forgiving, Most Merciful.. 

(Surah Hud:41)

friends , dato and tansri,


shaykh aleey abdul is no stranger to us. a home grown shaykh from penang,
brought up from our pondok/madrasah sysytem of education, he moved on to the west in the 1990's.
he and his family is currently domiciled in london.

in 'knowing ourselves' the good shaykh expounded on ilm, ilm and ilm.
but facts gathering alone is not enough........to be followed by closely by 'experiential islam' [ amal ]married to 'istiqamah'

only then will we be able to sail to 'ya rabbi alamin' and obtain 'deep anchorage'
otherwise, we will be like guinea pigs paddling our way on the threadmill, not moving anyway but 'caged within our ignorance and heedlessness'.

not being aware and concious.
we can go through life, 40,  50, 60, 70 years , or in some, even in their 80's, walking  through life like zombies !

listen!

Surah ad Dukhan............closing commentary; .shaykh dr haitham al haddad

friends, dato and tansri,,

in the closing end of surah ad adukhan, allah does away with mild equivocation.

liberals [ in nabi's time they call this group by a different name ], non believers and people on the fence;

all of them have no posterity.

their daily sustainance will be ash sajjaratul zaqqum

a major problem with them in their earthly life is arrogance

for the believers, there will be a sanctuary of bliss.

this unequivocation would not go well with the g25 types, the liberals, etc and etc, but that is surah ad dukhan for you.

not from any small town muftis etc and etc, afraid of their rulers.

Surah ad Dukhan......shaykh dr haitham al haddad, lecture 6; of power, arrogance,greed and zulm

friends, dato and tansri,

the next group of ayat are about kings, sultans, sheikhs, emir and numero uno in general....political or/and hereditary.

peppered all across the globe, mainly now in muslim majority countries, as secular democracies have now shifted several gear up towards accountable  and transparent governance with justice, equality and fraternity.

from timbuktu in the west to ko'diang kedah in the east, from liechenstein in the north to swaziland in the south, these include many players, major and minor shaykhs and emirs and clowns.

none of them can measure up to pharaoh of ancient egypt.
at least in term of absolute power, arrogance, greed and zulm.

in the qur'an  allah directly mentioned pharaoh a record 74 times by name. 
qarun , the quintessential billionaire of all time, one would have thought was the father of all arrogance, i think is just mentioned once.
qarun, like most billionaires, past and present, was also arrogant up to a point [ 'i am there because i am qarun, with masive eq and iq, and connectivity,not because of nep or something!...]
but qarun is not a king or sultan.......arrogance arising from just pure wealth without power is nothing to shout about!

you dont believe me , you ask bill gates or steve job....most want to be in the shoes of donald trump!

pharaoh beat nabi yusuf who was mentioned over 70 time.
prophet moses hold the record: over 140 times.

islam abhors arrogance and zulm, and for those in power, tip toeing away from arrogance and zulm, is easier said than done.

the old english saw things differently and coined the adage: ' power corrupts, absolute power corrupt absolutely'
even when you are a wet in between the ears nine year old you are already brought up with the notion that 'you are always right'.
alas, when you reach 60, you land up with the belief that 'you can never be wrong!'

islam exhorts that you , as a ruler, is to be guided always in action and words by revealed religion and hadith and not be 'epileptic' in blurting  out exhortation and rulings, which is fairly revealing of an empty  and secular mind.

and in your business deal, if  just for example, you are bidding for the power business of your own country, under negotiated 'tender' which is really euphemism for state gift, that extra 2 cent per unit electricity your company might be asking for, may be pittance to you, but to the simple raayat it means giving you and your partner an extra 2 billion rm annually , above and beyond the hefty profit you would have made,which is already a lot.

for all intent and purposes, your bid may win the day by virtue of the clout you hold sway.
but think first.......
is it fair ? 
is it just?

all across the globe, you guys  and your kinds are snouting your dirty noses and fingers in the same trough at which the ordinary raayat are also all fighting for their daily existence.

you people have special position over the rest of mankind. you are gifted with power, money and more power. you are lords of your kingdoms and whatever come out of your mouth, intelligent or unintelligible, even in 2017 , are rules and orders for the rest to follow.
your mere suggestion is already an order for the raayats.

which bring us to the state of their ugama.
they have to know the whole width and  length of their ugama to be able to rule justly.
oftentimes than not, they are quite complete ignoramus in their ugama and when this is so, when their socalled 'muftis'  and 'handlers' fear them and do not give them proper advice, they are in trouble with allah.

they not only land up in an-nar, but at the bottom-most heap of an-nar!
both themselves and their advisors.

in an earlier slot before surah ad dukhan we hear the story of sultan ibrahim of balksh, a nation state somewhere in iran near iraq, circa 730 ce.
he was always drunk 24/7.

as usual at night he used to retire up in the attic of his istana with a special glass ceiling.
he was woken up by a loud noise up on his roof and lo and behold he saw this chap up on the roof, walking in the middle of the night!

" what are you doing up there on my roof!! "
" i am looking for my camel, tuanku....", said the interloper, obviously drunk.
" on my roof!! you are mad and drunk!! "
" you are more mad and drunk than me tuanku!... looking for allah in your istana! with a bevy   of young ladies holding on  and tugging to your trousers  and zippers,and a coterie of muftis and court jesters saying  'yes  sir!, yes sir! ' to your every whims and fancies! "

sultan ibrahim had his moment of ephiphany and muqarabah.
he went on to become a wandering dervish and forsook his kingdom.

that was ibrahim bin adzam, one of the nost famous and most zuhud sufi saint of his time.

Surah ad Dukhan.........shaykh haitham al haddad, lecture 5

friends, dato and tansri,

listening to the tafseer of  this series  of ayat brought me back to standard three in kota bharu, panggung lido, by the kelantan river, in the early sixties.

cheap matinee of 'the ten commandments', at 45 cent per child, for primary school children.  
a 1956 epic movie directed by cecil b demille, starring yul bryner as rameses and charlton heston as moses, and john carradine as aaron.

the movie ended with rameses slowly disappearing in to the sea with his chariot and whole army. that epic battle between  right and wrong, stuck in psyche of most children my age till today.

[ our numero uno now and some non political head of states currently, from timbuktu to  pasir mas, probably  missed this great movie in their childhood days, that is probably why a couple of 2 to 10 billion rm is still small change to them! ...or they never ponder about the qur'an.  too busy chasing the duniya! ]

later in the early 80's i was lucky enough to meet yul bryner in real life, along with his chinese wife coming out of a chinese restaurant around praed street. he drove off in a royal blue merc convertible.
i was there then, doing my posgraduate attachment  in cardiology at st mary's hospital, just around the corner of praed street.

in london, at that time,one cannot be sure into whom one bumped into.
i was hawking around in harrod one day at a book stall and lo and behold there stood before me, mr dracula himself the legendary christopher lee, reading a book in one corner.

'sir, are you the great christopher lee?.... can i shake your hand'...i blurted  out unashamedly.

another place you are bound to cross the whose who in filmdom is hyde park.
i bumped into dustin hoffman playing kite with his young son.

i was not yet into daawah at that time otherwise i would have steered my conversation towards the qur'an.
