This video discusses a poem that deeply affected Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal, exploring themes of shame in disobeying Allah, the world as a test, hiding sins, the afterlife, and seeking Allah's forgiveness. Mufti Abdur Rahman covers the famous poem which is related to have made Imam Ahmad cry. Poem: I will be asked, what have I sent forth in my life to save me So what will I answer, after I've been neglectful in my faith Woe to me, did I not hear the words of Allah calling out to me? Did I not heed what has come in Qāf and Yasīn Did I not hear of the day of gathering, of assembly and retribution? Did I not hear the caller of death Calling me, summoning me So my lord, this is a slave who has come repenting, Who shall grant me refuge, Other than a generous forgiving Lord, To the truth he will guide me I have come to You, so have mercy on me, and make heavy my scales And lighten my reckoning, for you are the best of those to reckon with me If my Lord asks me "Have you no shame in disobeying me? You hide your sins from my created beings Yet full of disobedience you come to Me" So how will I answer? Woe to me, Who shall protect me? I keep distracting my soul With false hopes from one time to the next And I forget what is to come after death, What is there after I am wrapped in my shroud As if I am guaranteed to live forever, And that death will never come to me Then the harsh pangs of death overtake me, Who will now protect me? I look at the faces, is there not among them one who will ransom me?

In this episode we discuss Allah's name Al Mumin, as The Ultimate Testifier of Truth, The One Who Inspires and Confirms faith in others, and The One Who Grants peace and security to the believers. The following dua is included towards the end of the episode: Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Abu Sa`id, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "On the day of Al-Khandaq, we said: `O Messenger of Allahﷺ, is there anything we should say, for our hearts have reached our throats' (meaning in fear and anxiety) Heﷺsaid: «نَعَمْ، قُولُوا: *اللَّهُمَّ اسْتُرْ عَوْرَاتِنَا وَآمِنْ رَوْعَاتِنَا*» (Yes, say: *O Allah, cover our weak points and calm our fears*) Then Allah struck the faces of the enemy with the wind, and defeated them with the wind. This was also recorded by Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal from Abu `Amir Al-`Aqadi. - From the Tafsir of Surah Al Ahzab in Tafsir Ibn Katheer

This Surah has 11 verses. It takes its name from verse 1: “وَالضُّحَىٰ” (By the morning brightness) where the word “الضحى” meaning “The Morning Brightness” appears. This Surah was revealed in Mecca most probably during the early days of Muhammad's proclamation of his prophethood, and most likely was among the first ten surahs to be revealed. This Surah addressed to Prophet Muhammad and assures him that his Lord had not forgotten him. As discussed in Surah Muddathir, history, ahadith and traditions tell us that the first revelation upon Muhammad was the first five verses of Surah Alaq but than there was a long interval and revelation stopped. This caused much pain and grief to the Prophet. So much so that he tried to reach at the top of the hill to throw himself down, but just when he tried to do so Angel Gabriel appeared and told him that he truly was a Prophet of God and the first experience of revelation was real and not his doubt or his mind's creation. Traditions tell that this was same sort of interval when for a period of time, the revelations stopped. The unbelievers mocked Prophet Muhammad saying that “Muhammad's Lord has abandoned him.” It is recorded in various traditions in Bukhari, Muslim and also by Ahmed bin Hanbal that there was a long interval and Angel Jibril was slow in coming to the Prophet of God PBUH. So the idolaters said, “Muhammad's Lord has abandoned him.” Thus Allah revealed, وَٱلضُّحَىٰ • وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ • مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ By the forenoon. By the night when it darkens. Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you]. On the explanation of “وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنَ الْأُولَىٰ” “And the Hereafter is better for you than the first” It applies on everything and every phase of time of Prophet Muhammad. History proved this verse was a miracle as every next moment for Prophet is this world was better than previous in terms of increase in his followers as well as spreading of message and dominance of Muslims over land and area. Then it also applies similarly to the worldly life of Prophet and hereafter. That's why Prophet was so keen of going from this world that when on his death The Angel of Death told him that Allah Subhan Taalah had given him choice of remaining in this life forever and then going to Paradise or moving on to the company of Allah, he chose that which is with Allah over this world Ahmad bin Hanbal, Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah recorded a narration from Abdullah bin Masud who said, “The Prophet of God PBUH was lying down on a straw rug, and it left marks on his side. Then when he woke up, he began to rub his side. So I said, O Prophet of God PBUH, will you allow us to spread something soft over this straw rug. He replied, مَالِي وَلِلدُّنْيَا، إِنَّمَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الدُّنْيَا كَرَاكِبٍ ظَلَّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ رَاحَ وَتَرَكَهَا I have nothing to do with this world. The parable of me and this world is like a rider who rests in the shade of a tree, then he passes on and leaves it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wow-be-podcast/message

“Hai sekalian manusia, makanlah yang halal lagi thayyib dari apa yang terdapat di bumi, dan janganlah kamu mengikuti langkah-langkah syaithan; karena sesungguhnya syaithan itu musuh yang nyata bagimu.” (QS Al Baqarah: 168) Yang halal itu melembutkan hati, kata Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal. Hati yang lembut mudah menerima kebenaran dan peka pada kebaikan. Sedangkan daging yang tumbuh dari barang haram, yang lebih layak baginya adalah di neraka. Bahkan asupan haram ketika tidak disadari mungkin tidak dosa bagi ahlinya, namun pengaruhnya pasti tetap terasa, kata Imam Asy Syafi'i. Ikuti obrolan kami bersama Ust.

Episode 28: Read. The Right Man For The Job: Aftermath of Revelation, Khadijah & Waraqah bin Nawfal Welcome to Seerah Pearls, which aims to highlight some tantalising learning points from each episode of the Seerah- Life of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) was meant for this job as a Prophet: this was no random act. Everything in his life had been leading up to the start of revelation. Iman Ahmad ibn Hanbal reports that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) was asked when he was made a Prophet: he said this happened when Adam (alayhi as-salaam) was in the state between dust/clay and before the soul was breathed into him i.e. when Allah created humans. We sometimes talk about the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in ‘superhero' terms. However, he experienced pain, difficulty and adversity- he had the true human experience. Imagine the event of the first revelation: this experience must have been earth-shattering, one that could damage someone's psyche. Allah created a system so the Prophets would be gradually acclimated to the experience. They would have a warm-up period in the form of true dreams. These would make the Prophets trust their heart. The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had true dreams for 6 months prior to revelation. Revelation started on a Monday. When asked about fasting on Mondays, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that was the day he was born and that was the day he received the first revelation. As for the month, the vast majority agree that it started in Ramadan. As for the specific day, opinions vary: the 14th, 17th, 21st or 27th night- Allah knows best! Ibn Ishaaq leans towards the opinion it was the 21st night, in the 40th year of the Prophet's life.

ِسْمِ ٱللَّٰهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ La Orden Sufí Khalwati (Halveti, en turco) es una de las ramas del Camino Elevado, cuyos miembros llevan a cabo la Remembranza de Dios, Alabado sea, en forma audible y abierta por medio de una serie de movimientos circulares o giratorios. Sobre la base de su simbolismo y significado interno, el ritual de girar en Remembranza de Dios ha sido juzgado aceptable por individuos reconocidos por su santidad, excelentemente calificados en la Sabiduría Divina, preeminentes en el amor de Dios y celebrados por su conocimiento esotérico. El primero en pronunciar una opinión legal sobre la práctica sufí de girar, fue el Qadi Wahidudin, santificado sea su espíritu. Este pronunciamiento data de la generación de los Sucesores del Profeta y ‑Alabado sea Dios‑, continúa vigente hasta nuestros días. De los fundadores de las cuatro escuelas de la Ley Islámica, los imames al‑Shafi', Malik y Ahmad ibn Hanbal, consideran lícito el girar. El Faro de la Comunidad, el Gran Imam Abu Hanifa, es el único que no ha dicho nada sobre el particular, ni en un sentido ni en otro: ni lo declara ilegal, ni lo declara específicamente permisible. Sin embargo, sus dos discípulos, los imames Yusuf y Muhamed, ambos juristas de primer orden, han declarado que el girar es lícito y legal. Y esta opinión es la que prevalece en la escuela Hanifa. La prueba definitiva de la legalidad del girar provocado por el Amor Divino, es el noble ‑verso número 75 del glorioso Sura Al‑Zumar, que se interpreta como sigue.”…Y verás a los ángeles rodeando el Trono, cantando la Alabanza de Su Señor…“ De este verso, se deduce claramente que los ángeles giran alrededor del Exaltado Trono, al tiempo que glorifican al Señor: "Así como las oraciones que se practican en el Islam (ya sean obligatorias, opcionales o superrogatorias) están modeladas sobre los actos de adoración de los ángeles, y así el noble ritual del girar, desarrollado por los sufís, refleja el culto de los ángeles del Trono Exaltado, pues su forma es el círculo, idéntico al de los ángeles en su remembranza de la Verdad." Así como los peregrinos que van a la Meca realizan la circunvalación de la reverenciada Kaba y expresan sus súplicas entonando ALLAHU AKBAR, al igual que los ángeles giran en círculos para aprendizaje y remembranza; así los amantes de Dios y los derviches que siguen el camino espiritual de la orden Halveti, describen movimientos circulares mientras recitan en voz alta los nombres Divinos HAYY, ALLAH, QAYYUM, DA'IM, AHAD, SAMAD; (Siempre Vivo, Allah, El que existe por Sí Mismo, Duradero, Uno, Eterno). De la misma manera en que la gente del mundo va en rondas, de puerta en puerta, en busca de beneficios mundanos, así los amantes de Dios, Alabado sea, dan vueltas repitiendo el Nombre Divino, para beneplácito del Creador y en esa forma alcanzan el éxtasis de unión con Dios que es su meta. Un árabe del desierto, que gozaba del privilegio de ser aceptado en la presencia del Profeta, la paz de Dios sea con él, en cierta ocasión preguntó: “Oh Mensajero de Dios, allá en el Paraíso, allá en lo alto, ¿se gira en círculos también?” El Profeta, la paz de Dios sea con él, se quedó en silencio, sin responder. Entonces el arcángel Gabriel descendió, y por decreto divino informó al Príncipe de los Dos Mundos que en el Paraíso, en las alturas del Cielo, se giraría en círculos los viernes, que es el día dedicado a la Congregación. ¡Oh amante fiel! En el Paraíso no hay rezos, rituales ni ayunos; y sin embargo todo es girar y dar vueltas como expresión de amor a Dios. ¡Me place dar esta buena noticia a los amantes!

Through Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal's awareness of the sanctity and spiritual greatness of the Holy Prophet ﷺ we can reflect on the immense care he took in not only maintaining the words of the Hadith, but also their spirit.
