Goals of learning – #2

  • Summary

  • Books mentioned in the reminder: The Life of Muhammadﷺ from the earliest sources by Martin Lings Sealed Nectar (Ar-Raheequl Makhtoum) by Safiur Rahman Mubarakpuri Seeratun Nabi by Syed Sulaiman Nadvi Leadership Lessons from the Life of Rasoolullahﷺ by Mirza Yawar Baig ---Auto generated transcript--- The seerah of Rasulullah S.A.S. is the tafsir of the Quran And this is not my opinion This is what our mother Sayyidina Aisha Siddiqua R.A. told us about this She said that They asked her Can you tell us something about the life of Rasulullah A.S. And she said to the person, don't you read the Quran? And the person said, yes, I read the Quran She said that is the life of Rasulullah A.S. So the life of Rasulullah A.S. is the tafsir of the Quran There are many ayahs in the Quran When you want to ask the question, you read the ayah, you know the meaning And then you say, how must I apply this in my life? You look for that answer in the seerah, in the life of Rasulullah A.S. The seerah therefore is a required reading It is a part of the education of the Muslim Unfortunately, it is highly neglected and that is something that we need to change So next question, next benchmark for yourself is what do I know about the seerah? I will also post some links to books of the seerah that you can start with, inshallah So read those books, inshallah, it will give you an idea about the life of Rasulullah A.S. Now, when you're reading the book, key thing to understand is you are not reading it for information You're not reading it to get some names or mention or remember some dates You're reading it only with one purpose And that is to say, how can I practice this in my life? Inshallah, Allah SWT will put barakah in our lives if we do that And therefore we must read and study When I say read, that's only the first part, just reading But the key thing is to Not just to read, but to study it in detail and then to implement it in our lives So this is a very important thing to do Second thing is also take this into the family Get the children, get your spouses, everyone involved in that And practice it in the smallest ways You sit down to eat, you say, are we eating in the way that Rasulullah A.S. used to eat? And then have a little like a quiz And say, well, how did he eat? So he ate with his right hand He said, Bismillah, before he ate And he did this and he did that and he did that Whatever he used to do, we do that And Make sure that we remember those things and we practice it So what is the learning from the Now in the course of this same discussion and thinking about the Seerah Is which will come automatically, it will happen If you are studying the Seerah, this is something which will just bound to happen Which is talk about the Akhirah Because this is the reality which not only the Seerah, but also the Seerah And the Seerah is the reality which is the reality of the Akhirah Because this is the reality which nobody denies People deny even Allah SWT, they deny the Nabi A.S. They deny everything, but nobody denies death because we know one day we will die We have seen others dying, we have seen others dead We have attended Janazahs, we have gone to the To the Khabaristan, we have buried people and so on, so we know this So what is our preparation for that? So have these discussions, talk about it Because the fact is, the reason I am saying this is because the reality is that In life you will find whatever you talk about Remains, what you don't talk about disappears Right? Just a very simple test If I ask you, tell me the name of your maternal great grandmother That is your mother's grandmother Your mother's grandmother I can bet you that most of you will not even know the name Because the name is never spoken Right? At the most somebody will say Nani Jaan, Nani Maan, some such thing You know, Jadda, but nobody, usually the name is not there So it disappears, it is as if she never existed She existed,
