1
00:00:04,100 --> 00:00:10,660
How is sincere tawhid to Allah ﷻ achieved,
and what helps one achieve it?

2
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:14,996
In the name of Allah ﷻ,
the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.

3
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,130
Praise be to Allah ﷻ, Lord of the worlds.

4
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:25,820
Blessings and peace on Prophet Muhammad ﷺ,
his family, and all his Companions (RA).

5
00:00:27,300 --> 00:00:32,180
To proceed, attaining tawhid
is a lofty rank.

6
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,760
It is the rank of the foremost.

7
00:00:39,220 --> 00:00:50,660
Those near to Allah ﷻ will enter Paradise
with no reckoning and no punishment.

8
00:00:54,380 --> 00:00:57,980
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ described
their qualities.

9
00:00:59,260 --> 00:01:06,300
"They do not ask for ruqyah
or get cauterized."

10
00:01:07,820 --> 00:01:13,240
They do not believe in bad omens,
and they put their trust in their Lord.

11
00:01:15,260 --> 00:01:21,960
Whoever combines these qualities
is among those who have perfected Tawhid.

12
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,440
And this is as Allah ﷻ says:

13
00:01:27,620 --> 00:01:30,260
Those who stand in awe of their Lord.

14
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,080
They believe in the signs of their Lord.

15
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:45,660
They do not commit shirk with their Lord,
and give, fearing they will return to Him.

16
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,760
It is they who hasten to good deeds,
and are foremost in them.

17
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,260
These are their qualities.

18
00:01:55,420 --> 00:02:02,740
They worship Allah ﷻ alone sincerely,
and avoid shirk.

19
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:09,320
They avoid major and minor shirk
and avoid sins.

20
00:02:10,860 --> 00:02:16,800
Even more so,
they avoid innovations and new practices.

21
00:02:18,780 --> 00:02:20,880
They do not rely on their deeds.

22
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:31,320
Rather, despite the great deeds they do,
they remain fearful of their Lord.

23
00:02:33,340 --> 00:02:42,040
They offer what they offer—
great righteous deeds—fearing their Lord.

24
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:51,540
These are their qualities,
and this is their station with Allah ﷻ.

25
00:02:53,240 --> 00:03:00,200
They do not ask others for ruqyah,
for seeking it from people is a need.

26
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:07,880
Seeking ruqyah means asking people for it.
That is a need, so they do without people.

27
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,780
But they do ruqyah on themselves
and on others.

28
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:20,100
Ruqyah is a lawful remedy
and a lawful cure.

29
00:03:21,740 --> 00:03:24,100
But they do not ask people for it.

30
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,360
Rather, they do ruqyah on themselves
and on others.

31
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:35,360
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ performed ruqyah,
and ruqyah was done for him.

32
00:03:38,500 --> 00:03:45,340
They do not get cauterized,
for it is disliked, though permitted.

33
00:03:45,424 --> 00:03:49,820
So they left what is disliked.
They left what is disliked.

34
00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:52,040
Yet cautery is allowed.

35
00:03:52,980 --> 00:04:01,200
Cautery is a lawful Prophetic remedy.
But they avoid it because it uses fire.

36
00:04:03,300 --> 00:04:13,720
Omens mean pessimism,
and believing things can harm or benefit.

37
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,140
"Omens are shirk.
Omens are shirk."

38
00:04:19,660 --> 00:04:23,360
So they did without people;
they do not seek ruqyah.

39
00:04:24,500 --> 00:04:27,400
They avoided what is disliked:
they do not get cauterized.

40
00:04:28,140 --> 00:04:32,050
And they avoided shirk:
they do not take omens.

41
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:40,479
These are their qualities,
which the Messenger ﷺ praised. Yes.
