Every 100 Years, A Man Will Come

Hey [Music] [Music] there is a glorious past that we once used to have there is a glorious past which we all look at and become awestruck when we try to look into and ponder the many things and achievements that our predecessors had accomplished but the reality is that today we're not living that past any longer today we're not living in the same time that the books have written about and people have written about within the books today we're living in a time where perhaps the Muslim Ummah despite being one of the largest nations in the world in numbers we perhaps are one of the weakest nations suppressed by others and for people who are such large in numbers it is very easy for us to rise again and that is found within the hadith abu dawood authentic hadith in which the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala sends at the beginning of every 100 years a person who ends up performing the religion for this woman of muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam but what we need to understand is the map and the route for us to rise again to the station that allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala had won given once given us and granted us and that is the station of completion you see towards the end of the data of Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam the prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam had been given a verse which showed us the perfection of this faith and the fact that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has perfected and completed what the prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam had been granted of legacy of what he a revelation of sunnah of hikmah a wisdom and so forth and that was the ayah in which allah subhana wa ta'ala told us that today i have perfected for you o people your religion and i have further perfected my blessing upon you o people as well and allah continued and he told us that allah is pleased for us by having Islam as our faith and our religion and consider Islam the supreme that no other object no other ideology no other thought no other idea can supersede when this verse was revealed not long after did a man from amongst the Jews coming to a little bit of khattab radhi'allahu Tala and he said to her mother will ha Bob that you have within your scripture a revelation that if we were to get that revelation we would consider that day to be a day that we were rejoicing a day we end up taking as indeed literally as he said and he said what is that verse so he replied back and told them the verse and Bob said I know exactly where this was revealed upon the prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam it was revealed to the messenger sallallaahu le was said lemon Arafah and it was revealed to the prophet sallallaahu i do send them on the day of tomorrow when we whenever we speak about the topic of reform and reformation immediately people start to bring within their minds ideas which perhaps weren't there historically and to some our reform or a reformation or third deed is a reformation we're in something new is being brought within the religion but we say no Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has perfected their religion and after perfection there's only defect and so similarly Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has made the religion the life with which we live with which our souls live and in order for us to ensure that this religion is continuing to deserve the same task allah subhana wa ta'ala placed within it the mechanism of reformation and that is found within the Haditha who that would authenticate in which the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala sends at the beginning of every 100 years a person who ends up reforming the religion for this Ummah of that's allah llahu adding he was in them they said 100 years why 100 years because you see if we look at every 100 years for the most part within the timeframe of a hundred years Allah subhana WA Ta'ala makes it such that the grandparents are there and their children come and their children come as well and normally within three generations the practices that were once there they end up changing and that's why there's always a very severe disconnect between grandchildren and grandparents many a times because societies move and trans change and cultures change and so on and so forth and that goes also for religion at times within the 100 years the message in the legacy that was there at the beginning it no longer remains and that's why what do we say the Sahaba that davrine and that dialect Avenue who will come who will be able to renovate the religion that was once all already there and when does this 100 year start according to some of the scholars and I will not get into the details of it but according to some of the scholars it starts from the moment when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam he said this hadith and we have records that likely the messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam he said this right towards the end of his life and that would mean that the very first person who had been sent by allah subhana wa ta'ala to be a reformist within this ulna would be abu bakr radiyaallahu ta'ala and that is because right after the death of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam there was a lot of problems that started to surface immediately after there's people who started to deny the god those people who started to apostate there was people who were unsure about the death of rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and so on and so forth abu bakr came and they were unsure about who also that Halawa should be given to and so a woman came and many of these occasions he ended up clarifying the misconceptions that were faster rising so abu bakr radiyaallahu ta'ala anhu was this first performance and thereafter came many people who reformed the religion from the angles we're in the Safa occurred we're in the religion started to perhaps need the renovation allah has placed within the religion the mechanism of that and that is by sending people who will do this now one may say that sure there is renovation sure Allah subhana WA Ta'ala destined people who renovate why is this topic of paramount importance to us today the reason why this topic is a paramount importance to us today is for two reasons number one there are those who call to a Reformation and they do that loud and clear and in the name of Reformation they end up uprooting the very practices that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam had brought to us and he had placed upon that very solid foundation this religion in the name of report Reformation and then this hadith is quoted in order for them to support their agenda of what they call to be Reformation but in reality it is the destruction of faith whatever Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has not predefined already those are the things within the religion which are considered contextual everything else Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has already defined for us so if someone is bringing something new to the faith in reality they are bringing something which happens to be an innovation within the space the process of bringing about a true reform within this faith is to bring the faith back to what it used to be during the time of rasulullah salallahu alaihe send them and what the messenger salallahu alayhi wa sallam had left this faith art and the second very important idea is the fact that Allah when he said that Allah sends at the beginning of every 100 years who will rejuvenate revive reform this religion for the umma Allah subhana WA Ta'ala used the word man and if we look at a certain ship man is amongst the ways that we can have generality and that means that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala can send us more than one person and it doesn't have to be one person there can be more than one person in more than one place in more than one location perhaps in one single location allah subhana wa ta'ala allows for more than one person to be there who will try to bring this face back to how the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had left it upon the completion and the conclusion of the revelation from Allah a Buddha City well Jonah and when we think about Reformation don't think only about Reformation of religion meaning alien and knowledge and so on and so forth even though that happens to be the primary key to Reformation when we think about Reformation they say you have to think about a number of things you think about belief and belief is much greater or larger of a term than what the word Oppie that has been simplified to and that is simply theological debates between different sects that was not meant alone by the word avi that it was much more expansive than that so anything that allows us to feel an internal relation with Allah subhana wa ta'ala and that increases our connection to Allah that is all part of our belief Allah subhana WA Ta'ala hadn't limited beliefs to simply theological debates that has its place that has its time but along with that there is all of the things that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has given us within the Quran which increase our faith and bring us closer to Allah horrible rezidentura so we have to reform this angle as well becoming closer to allah subhana wa ta'ala through the beautiful names of allah rabbul izza tol jihad recognizing allah subhana wa ta'ala through the creation that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has has made for us as a poet says that in every single thing you can find a sign from which you can recognize that allah rabbul izza t1 Jalal is in fact one the prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam used to say in a hadith think about the bounties and the Beth Lessing's and all of the beautiful things that are lost Ricardo Montoya has granted and create and don't necessarily think about the existence of Allah right because shave on comes to a person and he says you came into existence to their birth from this particular mother and so on and so forth and that person came into existence through there and so on and so forth all the way till it ends to Adam Adam was created by Allah who created Allah this is the trick that Shaitaan plays with the creation of allah subhana wa ta'ala at that time and the prophet saww syndrome had given us the guidance to seek refuge in allah at that moment francha thorne their accursed so the Prophet SAW said and told us the way to read old juvenile and revive that faith within us is by looking at the blessings and bounties of Allah robbery satyagraha and that's why many a times when allah subhana wa ta'ala wants us to recognize him his existence his power his majesty he always tells us about the IATA and within your souls look at the creation of the heavens and the the earth because that will naturally make you understand the existence of Allah subhana wa ta'ala and realize the existence of allah subhanaw taala you see sometimes information alone is not enough we are creatures that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has creat created based on emotions we are creatures that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has created based on minds as well and for some people intellectual stimulation works better for other people emotions work better for other people a balance of two is required and that's why when allah subhana wa ta'ala addresses us in the quran allah subhana wa ta'ala capitalizes on the emotions and allah subhana wa ta'ala capitalizes on on things which will stimulate the intellect as well within one page you'll find a little bit of everything questions that you ask for which you have to research immediately you have tears suddenly you're smiling and so on and so forth so allah subhana wa ta'ala place the perfect balance within his book for us to understand the type of belief system that is required for us to get closer to Allah or Buddha is a tewara that is the first thing and the second thing is the actions and practice as well the practice that Allah subhana WA Ta'ala has has placed within the different legislations of our religion the practice which Allah subhana WA Ta'ala had showed us the perfect way to implement of it through the guidance of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that practice also needs to be rejuvenated that practice also needs to be revived an evil culture needs to be we need to let go of it and last but not least is the Jumeirah and that is governance and that is the implementation of the deen of allah subhana wa ta'ala even at the level of state and the implementation of the deen of allah subhana wa ta'ala by ensuring that all of the freedoms required but to muslims in order for them to practice their religion are all granted and are all there all of these are aspects within which reform is required and that is true even the first or one of the first of the reformists that was there within the ummah of the disease one of the first angles that he reformed within this wilma was what a lot of corruption started to occur her motive disease he fought this corruption from the very first day when he became the hanifa of the muslim e and that's why they said he was one of the first and the greatest of reformist because he took all of the all of the corruption from his own personal family and you know what the way we can fix corruption is that any single moment we are the ones that are given the power we stop any form of corruption that we can and slowly but surely when we say no to corruption allah subhana wa ta'ala will allow that corruption to decrease and allah subhana wa ta'ala will allow for us to come back to that same station and status that allah subhana wa ta'ala had graduated the ummah to muhammad sallallaahu arrested and that's why Allah subhana WA Ta'ala tells us in the Quran those people who rolled fast to this book and they also established the prayer as well we will not let the reward of those people who try to reform go to waste so allah subhanho at the connected true Reformation took getting connected to the Book of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala and you see every single day we asked Allah subhana WA Ta'ala for guidance we say a dinosaur album stop him o Allah guide us to the path which happens to be straight and Allah guides us on a daily basis by telling us in the very very next page that is the book there is no doubts therein and that book happens to be guidance for those who have fear I ask Allah subhana WA Ta'ala to grant us little Fiat to implement learn teach practice preach the guidance of his book I mean Arbour al-amin you
