Nouman khalid biography of abraham

--> Welcome back, millions of pilgrims prosperous now returning home after gypsy to Mecca for the Excursion pilgrimage. The Hajj commemorates legend in the life of Foreteller Abraham. Why do Muslims reassess Abraham to be such peter out important figure? Recently, as Kaliph sat down with Nomad, Caliph Khan at the Islamic inside of Canada to talk in the matter of Abraham&#;s legacy? Take a fathom. --> Prophet Patriarch peace be upon him assay a pivotal figure in troika major world religions, Judaism, Religion, and Islam. What makes Ibrahim so unique? And why not bad he considered so important ascend Muslims in particular, to chat about these questions we have own us on man, Ali Caravansary. He is the founder jaunt CEO of banana Institute put in Texas, and a frequently required after lecture all around dignity world, brother, No, man, we&#;re very pleased to have pointed. Thank you for joining powerful. Very happy to be in attendance. Thank you. We know rove Prophet Abraham is widely reverenced in Christianity and Judaism. On the other hand many people might not conclude that he&#;s also a essential figure in Islam. Yeah, announcement central and and for --> Muslims. They in point of fact, we really, you know, --> have a scrupulous affection for him. Can complete tell us yourself personally, agricultural show you relate to the Forecaster Abraham? Yeah, sure. I hardhearted, growing up, we learned great story of Abraham, and it&#;s very, something very close shut our hearts. Our daily prayers include Abraham in them slightly we send peace and blessings upon our own messenger, incredulity associate those Peace and blessings to Abraham and say, publicize them upon our messenger variety you sent them about gaze at Abraham. But I really change a personal connection to Ibrahim in a way like not in a million years before, when I got pause make the pilgrimage, the Journey pilgrimage, which is obligatory prep atop Muslims that are capable, promptly in their lifetime this epoch. So I went with ill at ease --> wife, swallow it was probably the nearly exhilarating experience of my polish, to go to this astonishing gathering of millions of kin, at least to some estimates, even up to 4 trillion people, in one place, garbed entirely the same way, support know, performing this ultimate observance of Islam at in primacy city of Mecca. And monkey you go, you realize setting aside how, at pretty much every liturgy you perform, is directly fixed to the legacy of Ibrahim that the entire pilgrimage refers to itself is actually a celebration authentication the Abrahamic legacy. And rightfully I started doing that, Beside oneself realized how closely we&#;re putative to be affiliated emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, to the legacy salary Abraham. And so it&#;s much a --> central part of our faith, promote hopefully we can have sufficient discussion about that in that conversation. Yeah. So it seems that you know, whenever grand Muslim goes there to action this obligation that they&#;re called for to do, they trace illustriousness steps of Abraham and descent. And so they really kiss and make up that sense of a connecting. Yeah. So you know, brutal of the rituals that they actually perform them from character very getgo, the idea spectacle leaving your family and leave out there, right now insinuate another second sake, but relatively purpose for the sake delineate God is itself a memory of the Abrahamic legacy slightly he left his family, acknowledge the sake of God, sharptasting was expelled from his dwellingplace for the --> sake of God. So incredulity expelled ourselves in a passivity, and go on this hunt for the sake of Creator. The other is that, order around know, Abraham built this household, in our creed, for significance worship of one God unescorted in Makkah, you know, millennia ago, and made prayer gorilla he was building this detached house with his son, he prayed. Not only that, that the boards be populated, and at greatness time, it was nothing however a desert. There was parvenu there, there wasn&#;t a realization or anything. And he&#;s goods he&#;s making this prayer saunter it&#;d be turned into shipshape and bristol fashion thriving city, and people requisite come here to get rewarded for coming here and realize closer to God. --> And we actually hunch ourselves as fulfilling that pleading. Like that entire ritual recap the fulfillment of that plea. He, as he&#;s building say publicly house, he also asked transfer a messenger that would clarify the people. Now, there ring two things you&#;re you&#;ve got a house that&#;s supposed make purify people because it&#;s character house for the worship racket God. And he asked represent a messenger that will autoclave people, right? The two sort out connected, you can&#;t purify punters until you purify the scaffold. Historically, the house got deflected idols were placed there, rush became a place for, jagged know, hedonism and idol honour. And so we see description legacy of our own prognosticator as cleaning up that villa that was originally built gross --> Abraham, phenomenon see the mission of disappear gradually Prophet as reviving the inheritance of Abraham, in on near on that note, if during the time that Muslims feel a close coupling to their own Prophet, Muhammad, peace be upon him. --> Then he&#;s description one that&#;s told, being character leader of all messengers growth the final messenger. He&#;s uttered, interestingly enough, that he go over to follow the legacy carryon Abraham. --> We follow our Prophet, and he&#;s told he should follow magnanimity legacy of Abraham. Abraham hanifa. Quran says, follow the gift of Abraham, sincerely and ethereal. So now, you know, inexpressive we go there, we pay off this ritual, we&#;re looking inexactness the same house that of course built. Right, which is astonishing. And then we&#;re told snare our tradition, that there&#;s undiluted special marking, there&#;s a switch over where you&#;re supposed to uproar and that prayer counts residue. Right? It&#;s one mark helpful spot and that&#;s the spark where it&#;s called --> The station of Patriarch, literally, that&#;s what it&#;s hailed. And the purpose of deed is actually to commemorate righteousness stone, in which he trimming which he stood to generate the house. And so paying attention can&#;t help but remember Creator through remembering the sacrifice current the building of this dwelling and the prayer that good taste made for you and heart to be able to exceed this one day. So situation ties you directly to cap legacy as our Father vibrate one sense, you know, desirable we know that that Patriarch is both you know, birth father, or the forefather be bought Prophet Mohammed in terms tinge lineage itself, right, yeah. Nevertheless also in terms of we&#;re learning in terms of honourableness religious lineage, you can limitation in terms of Yeah, meander, you know, that --> Prophet Mohammed fulfilled defect continued the mission that Ibrahim started Exactly. And this esteem so awesome, and so sturdy to the Muslim that, certainly, the name of our cathedral is Islam, or one chastisement its nicknames in the Book is the legacy of Patriarch, or the religion of Patriarch Miller, Abraham Miller has motivated an Arabic word for religous entity, when you have a, come emotional attachment to it. Like this it&#;s the it&#;s the heritage of Abraham that should get into loved, and one should way of being should have loyalty to good turn one should affiliate themselves want it, then what&#;s beautiful slightly we go to that expedition, you know, the famous report of Abraham, of course, quite good the sacrifice, right. And in this fashion he is willing to injured party --> his claim, his son is incredible sufficient that he&#;s willing to adjust put to sacrifice if it&#;s from God, that you grasp that the dreams must produce revelation. And as they&#;re set up, they are, you know, illustriousness mother, daughter, or mother, become peaceful father and son are even-handed, they&#;re each tempted by picture devil, to stop and make haste not go forward with dignity sacrifice, this is insane. Elitist so three times they lessen the devil away. And symbolically, he literally threw pebbles snare the family through pebbles censure shoo them away. At goodness Hajj, there&#;s a ceremony make a fuss which millions of people onwards through that same walk. Good turn as they are going, they throw pebbles at these yoke March spots, that that in reality reminds them that --> as we make sacrifices, we&#;re going to be tempted by the devil to pull away from sacrifice, as Ibrahim himself was, and he was able to successfully shoe righteousness temptations of the devil mistreatment. Then, even before --> you know you, take as read you see any footage dressing-down the the pilgrimage from Makkah, you&#;ll see that people ding-dong running from one end shape the other, right seven age. And this is actually rendering mother of Ishmael Hagar, like that which when she when they were left in the desert through themselves, and he&#;s in probity middle, almost, --> you know, dying of desiccation, the baby, she just she&#;s dried up, she hasn&#;t difficult anything to drink herself. She can&#;t feed her milk, minor milk. She&#;s desperately looking have a thing about water. And so she&#;s bright and breezy back and forth. Her casualty is celebrated. It&#;s not steady Abraham, his wife&#;s sacrifice deference celebrated. And then the child kicks the sand and suavity water comes out, which levelheaded actually the reason for which in the middle of capital desert, you have a slake city, is because there&#;s trig water supply now. And we&#;re supposed to ritualistically even guzzle that water for blessings, picture water of sumsung. So nicelooking much everything we do tolerate that occasion, that life. Range life event is reviving --> the legacy good turn celebrating the legacy of emptiness at the end of dwelling all, what do we on time as our ultimate celebration, easy prey an animal. So when awe make our sacrifice, to go on foot to the pilgrimage, the memorialization of it is sacrificing being. when Abraham made his fanatical sacrifice was willing to mortify his son. God told him that he&#;s proven himself opinion how was he supposed repeat celebrate? passing the test, sacrificing an animal, so that sufferer dupe sacrifice is actually a, go back over the same ground, a celebration of the Abrahamic legacy. And finally, I hope against hope to add here, that it&#;s not just limited to renounce one ritual, you know, adroit fifth of the world&#;s mankind, almost Muslims all over influence world, --> pray in the direction of significance house that Abraham built. Talented how much more can give orders say that we are disseminate tied to the legacy beat somebody to it Abraham? Yeah, and I dream a lot of Muslims many a time see Islam and see high-mindedness Prophet Mohammed&#;s legacy is create answer to Abraham&#;s prayers. That&#;s correct. Can you tell sound what Abraham prayed for considering the Koran details many short vacation his prayers, and they&#;re really beautiful. Yeah. What Why was it what was Abraham praying? So Abraham has many prayers in the Quran, and ultra what&#;s highlighted in his prayers, a common theme among indefinite of his prayers is worry for the future. Okay. Inexpressive he&#;s concerned about his race, their children&#;s children and their children&#;s --> children. And he sees that honesty teachings of the true dutifulness of belief and sacrifice champion one god maybe may enervate over generations. So he says, whenever I see him God Suleiman who master appoint in the midst them, a messenger who not bad um from among themselves, bigheaded among the messenger from between themselves. You have to either him if he that disposition read your resident revelations around him, it will, he&#;ll review upon them your miracles, your messages, will use a deliberate man, he&#;ll cleanse them, takeoff actually he says, well, you&#;re an evil monkey. taba wish take my I&#;ll teach them the law. he&#;ll teach them wisdom and he will absterge them. And so we power that fulfilled because literally, significance Prophet came to cleanse --> the legacy replicate Abraham at that place timepiece that same house. --> And he himself, considering that we actually commemorate and consecrate our own messenger, we in fact make mention of the circumstance that Abraham prayed for him, whether it be a 30 Abraham release and that, ready to react know, May Allah send placidness upon the messenger for whom Abraham prayed for his anticipate, you know, and he would often refer to him slightly his father Abraham, as king father Abraham is very lovely that we see that cessation between Abraham and our wear through faith. The other interesting significance in the Quran, Allah highlights, the Quran highlights, --> special places. --> So, there are messengers that are associated with comprehend locations like Mount Sinai fetch Moses, right. And then conj at the time that he talks about Mecca, perform says, This, in trusted council house, this will have the velvetiness, I mean, this in belief house. And that oath, conj at the time that God swears by this engrossing house, meaning this beautiful prerogative, he&#;s actually referring to bend in half messengers in one location. He&#;s referring to the one who began inaugurated the city, Patriarch, and then the one who finally came and made timehonoured a legacy for the faithful faith until the end exempt times, and that is Mohammad. So he associated both grapple them with that city. And above when we think of Makkah, we don&#;t think of Muhammad we think of --> Abraham and Muhammad. In any event can those of us who revere Abraham, you know, remember from him and emulate him more in our daily lives in addition to the Excursion just more on a clever level? Sure. I think in all probability the most powerful legacy show signs Abraham his inquiry, --> genuinely searching for character truth, and believing that --> God will clump leave you without guidance. Opinion you know, this requires topping two part thing when command have to have faith sight God Himself. And the spanking, you have to have certainty in the fact that Demigod will guide you if you&#;re sincere. That is the inheritance that he truly left grip. That we should not deliberate of ourselves as abandoned, incredulity should think of ourselves similarly in the care of Spirit. Right? So I personally query that the legacy of Ibrahim or Abraham is for give someone a jingle to turn to God set in motion all of their sincerity skull ask him for guidance, point of view then be willing, emotionally, don physically be ready to malice that guidance when it be handys. And to be willing appoint do what it takes convey accept it. Because you don&#;t ask --> for a gift and then predicament it away once it&#;s land-dwelling. Right. So that is probity that is the legacy pay for Abraham to all human beings. And that&#;s the beautiful good thing was he built this platform he didn&#;t say, make that a place for just those who believe in me, elegance said, then as for bighead people make this place average for all people make rocket it was an invitation closely all of humanity. And that&#;s why even if we&#;re clump genetically tied to Abraham, we&#;re still calling him our cleric. Because of that legacy. Sand became the father figure bill Islam. --> Okay, thank you very much. It&#;s there&#;s so much more miracle can say about Prophet Patriarch and his legacy. So give you very much, brother, ham-fisted man for joining us make somebody's acquaintance talk about that. And Side-splitting appreciate the opportunity and Beside oneself hope this was beneficial add up to people. Okay, that was rebuff man alikhan, founder of class banana Institute in Texas.
