WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.650 The story of the Queen of Sheba 00:00:05.650 --> 00:00:13.679 We will consider whether you are telling the truth or whether you are liars 00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:15.859 He is the one who delivers the news 00:00:15.859 --> 00:00:18.960 Either he is truthful in what he reported 00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:21.829 Or he is lying 00:00:21.829 --> 00:00:26.730 Here comes the role of the recipient of the news in verifying what he hears 00:00:26.730 --> 00:00:29.730 Not everything we hear is true 00:00:29.730 --> 00:00:33.229 The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, told 00:00:33.390 --> 00:00:38.829 There are people who narrate everything they hear without confirming it 00:00:38.829 --> 00:00:42.030 He warned against this in the strongest terms 00:00:42.030 --> 00:00:43.310 And he said 00:00:43.310 --> 00:00:47.909 It is enough of a lie for Palmer to tell everything he heard 00:00:47.909 --> 00:00:49.979 Narrated by Muslim 00:00:49.979 --> 00:00:53.380 We must distinguish between those who are known for their honesty 00:00:53.380 --> 00:00:55.280 He is known to lie 00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:57.880 Or he is expected to lie 00:00:57.880 --> 00:00:59.719 So we believe the first 00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:04.239 We should be careful of the second and third types 00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:06.540 In the story of the Queen of Sheba 00:01:06.540 --> 00:01:10.579 When the hoopoe came with the news of their worship of the sun 00:01:10.579 --> 00:01:13.980 The Prophet of God Solomon, peace be upon him, said 00:01:13.980 --> 00:01:18.420 We will consider whether you are telling the truth or whether you are liars 00:01:18.420 --> 00:01:23.760 This is what is required of everyone whom God has placed as a responsibility over people 00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:28.799 To deal with the news he receives about them with reason and wisdom 00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:30.599 It does not cancel the news 00:01:30.599 --> 00:01:34.799 He should not rush to believe it and base judgments on it 00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:38.700 The informant does not lie without evidence 00:01:38.700 --> 00:01:41.459 Abu Zahra, may God have mercy on him, said 00:01:41.459 --> 00:01:44.299 Solomon was a wise king 00:01:44.299 --> 00:01:49.000 He does not base his knowledge of what he decides upon only on what he hears 00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.640 This is the most misleading of kings 00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:54.799 He is described as an ear 00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:59.040 The courtiers become his guardian who controls him 00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:01.299 And so he said to the hoopoe 00:02:01.299 --> 00:02:02.739 We'll look 00:02:02.739 --> 00:02:08.479 That is, we confirm that we will consider the truth of what you brought to us 00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:13.009 Are you honest or are you a liar? 00:02:13.009 --> 00:02:17.310 The carrier of the news should not get angry if he is told 00:02:17.310 --> 00:02:20.849 We need to verify what you said 00:02:20.849 --> 00:02:23.610 Because the listener is commanded to do so 00:02:23.610 --> 00:02:27.349 Especially if he is in a position of responsibility 00:02:27.349 --> 00:02:30.210 The news results in an action 00:02:30.210 --> 00:02:31.909 Or judgment on people 00:02:31.909 --> 00:02:33.789 Or otherwise 00:02:33.789 --> 00:02:37.090 There are several benefits to this behavior 00:02:37.090 --> 00:02:38.310 From her 00:02:38.310 --> 00:02:44.590 The news transmitter is trained to be accurate in reporting and verifying news 00:02:44.590 --> 00:02:45.849 And from her 00:02:45.849 --> 00:02:51.229 That people recognize the truthful from the false in reporting the news 00:02:51.229 --> 00:02:52.389 And from her 00:02:52.389 --> 00:02:55.370 People should be careful about reporting the news 00:02:55.389 --> 00:03:00.169 They do not rush to speak everything that reaches their ears 00:03:00.169 --> 00:03:04.659 If they knew that they would be held accountable for what they reported 00:03:04.659 --> 00:03:05.840 And from her 00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:09.000 They blocked the way for snitches and tweeters 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:10.680 And the corruptors on earth 00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:13.240 Those who hate people 00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:14.479 And from her 00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:18.439 Highlighting a valid model for verifying news 00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:22.419 And not being courteous to the news carrier 00:03:22.460 --> 00:03:26.659 The action was taken by the Prophet of God Solomon, peace be upon him 00:03:26.659 --> 00:03:28.819 To verify the news 00:03:28.819 --> 00:03:31.340 He is a correspondent from the Queen of Sheba 00:03:31.340 --> 00:03:33.780 And invited them to Islam 00:03:33.780 --> 00:03:37.659 He ordered the hoopoe to take the letter to her himself 00:03:37.659 --> 00:03:39.740 He returns with the news 00:03:39.740 --> 00:03:41.659 He said to the hoopoe 00:03:41.659 --> 00:03:43.659 Go with my book 00:03:43.659 --> 00:03:45.500 So throw it to them 00:03:45.500 --> 00:03:47.180 Then he turned away from them 00:03:47.180 --> 00:03:50.169 See what they return 00:03:50.210 --> 00:03:53.930 This is beautiful literature in verifying the news 00:03:53.930 --> 00:03:55.969 The one who brought the news 00:03:55.969 --> 00:03:57.490 He is the hoopoe 00:03:57.490 --> 00:04:00.370 And the Prophet of God Solomon, peace be upon him 00:04:00.370 --> 00:04:03.050 He did not believe him or lie to him 00:04:03.050 --> 00:04:07.129 And let him know that he will verify what he said 00:04:07.129 --> 00:04:09.409 Test him by conveying the message 00:04:09.409 --> 00:04:13.969 To know the extent of his honesty and his lies in what he said 00:04:13.969 --> 00:04:16.089 There is benefit in this 00:04:16.089 --> 00:04:20.050 It is that whoever brings us news whose authenticity we doubt 00:04:20.050 --> 00:04:23.649 He asked him to prove the veracity of what was conveyed to us 00:04:23.649 --> 00:04:25.449 The way we see it 00:04:25.449 --> 00:04:29.480 Suitable for the type of reported news 00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:32.519 And the use of the Prophet of God Solomon, peace be upon him 00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:34.439 For message style 00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:38.079 It is useful for us to verify the news 00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:39.560 By sending a message 00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:41.439 We will clarify the issue 00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:44.600 Before proving or denying it 00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:48.040 The Prophet of God Solomon, peace be upon him, used it 00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:51.759 In carrying and delivering the message 00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:55.879 This was a quick method at that time 00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:57.519 And he wanted to 00:04:57.519 --> 00:05:00.319 To teach his soldiers to bear responsibility 00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:03.560 What news they bring 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:04.720 And today 00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:07.519 People have means of communication 00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:09.079 Similar in speed 00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:11.639 The speedy accession to the throne of the Queen of Sheba 00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:15.639 From Yemen to the Kingdom of Solomon, peace be upon him 00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:17.480 It is to send the message 00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:20.199 Through modern means of communication 00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:22.720 And via the Internet 00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:26.949 It reaches the ends of the earth in the blink of an eye 00:05:26.949 --> 00:05:29.589 This is a blessing that God has bestowed 00:05:29.589 --> 00:05:32.029 On people in this time 00:05:32.029 --> 00:05:34.949 It should be used to please God 00:05:34.949 --> 00:05:38.269 And what benefits people and does not harm them 00:05:38.269 --> 00:05:41.910 It is one of the largest means of transmitting news today 00:05:41.910 --> 00:05:44.629 It also transports waste and fat 00:05:44.629 --> 00:05:46.470 And honesty and lies 00:05:46.509 --> 00:05:48.509 It is not correct to rely on it 00:05:48.509 --> 00:05:51.949 Believing news without proof 00:05:51.949 --> 00:05:54.670 So what if it was used initially? 00:05:54.670 --> 00:05:57.110 In spreading fake news 00:05:57.110 --> 00:05:59.750 And in psychological and media warfare 00:05:59.750 --> 00:06:02.269 To weaken the souls of Muslims 00:06:02.269 --> 00:06:06.550 And to form a public opinion that is contrary to God’s law 00:06:06.550 --> 00:06:08.189 Here the Muslim must 00:06:08.189 --> 00:06:11.470 Verify the news before publishing it 00:06:11.470 --> 00:06:13.350 Especially what was of it 00:06:13.350 --> 00:06:17.110 It leaves a bad impact on the souls of Muslims 00:06:17.110 --> 00:06:19.870 Or insults the honor of Muslims 00:06:19.870 --> 00:06:24.300 Or he challenges Muslim scholars and their elite 00:06:24.300 --> 00:06:26.319 God Almighty said 00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:33.720 If a matter of security or fear comes to them 00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:36.550 They claimed it 00:06:36.550 --> 00:06:39.589 Even if they returned it to the Messenger 00:06:39.589 --> 00:06:43.750 And to those in authority among them 00:06:43.790 --> 00:06:50.480 Those who deduce it from them know it 00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:55.560 And had it not been for God’s grace and mercy upon you 00:06:55.560 --> 00:07:02.040 You do not follow Satan except a little 00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:04.839 Ibn Kathir, may God have mercy on him, said 00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:09.680 And when a matter of security or fear comes to them, he said 00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:11.160 They claimed it 00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:15.560 Denial of those who initiate things before they are achieved 00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.959 He tells it, divulges it, and publishes it 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:22.980 It may not be valid 00:07:22.980 --> 00:07:25.620 Al-Saadi, may God have mercy on him, said 00:07:25.620 --> 00:07:28.180 This is a discipline from God to His servants 00:07:28.180 --> 00:07:31.180 For their inappropriate action 00:07:31.180 --> 00:07:33.899 And they should if an order comes to them 00:07:33.899 --> 00:07:37.339 Of important matters and public interests 00:07:37.339 --> 00:07:40.740 What concerns the matter and the joy of believers 00:07:40.779 --> 00:07:44.259 Or by fear that there will be a calamity for them 00:07:44.259 --> 00:07:49.019 To be sure and not rush to spread that news 00:07:49.019 --> 00:07:53.060 Rather, they return it to the Messenger and to those in authority among them 00:07:53.060 --> 00:07:57.139 People of opinion, knowledge, advice, reason and sobriety 00:07:57.139 --> 00:08:02.060 Those who know things and know the interests and their opposites 00:08:02.060 --> 00:08:06.540 If they saw in his broadcast an interest and activity for the believers 00:08:06.540 --> 00:08:10.139 For their joy and protection from their enemies 00:08:10.139 --> 00:08:11.740 They did it 00:08:11.740 --> 00:08:14.819 Even if they see that it is not of interest 00:08:14.819 --> 00:08:19.699 Or there is an interest in it, but its harm exceeds its benefit 00:08:19.699 --> 00:08:21.379 They did not broadcast 00:08:21.379 --> 00:08:23.180 That's why he said 00:08:23.180 --> 00:08:27.300 He knows those who infer it from them 00:08:27.300 --> 00:08:31.060 That is, they extract it with their sound thoughts and opinions 00:08:31.060 --> 00:08:33.600 And their rational sciences 00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:36.960 This is evidence of a literary basis 00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:41.000 It is that if there is research into a matter 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:46.039 It should be assigned to someone who is qualified for this and given to its family 00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:48.840 And he does not advance in their hands 00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:53.639 It is closer to the truth and more likely to be safe than wrong 00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:59.159 It prohibits haste and haste in spreading matters as soon as we hear them 00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:02.960 The command to meditate before speaking and consider it 00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:06.519 Is it an interest that a person should apply to? 00:09:06.559 --> 00:09:09.379 Or not, he refrains from it 00:09:09.379 --> 00:09:11.500 Then God Almighty said 00:09:11.500 --> 00:09:14.940 And had it not been for God’s grace and mercy upon you 00:09:14.940 --> 00:09:17.940 That is, in your success and discipline 00:09:17.940 --> 00:09:21.340 And teach you what you did not know 00:09:21.340 --> 00:09:25.139 You do not follow Satan except a little 00:09:25.139 --> 00:09:28.659 Because man is by nature unjust and ignorant 00:09:28.659 --> 00:09:32.019 His soul does not command him to do anything but evil 00:09:32.019 --> 00:09:36.700 So if he turns to his Lord, holds fast to Him, and strives to do so 00:09:36.700 --> 00:09:40.700 His Lord was kind to him and granted him every good thing 00:09:40.700 --> 00:09:45.460 And protect him from the accursed Satan 00:09:45.460 --> 00:09:50.539 So, dear sister, be sure of what you hear in women’s gatherings 00:09:50.539 --> 00:09:53.460 And be patient while you move 00:09:53.460 --> 00:09:56.179 People have used women as an example 00:09:56.179 --> 00:10:01.299 In spreading the news quickly without confirming or waiting 00:10:01.299 --> 00:10:05.820 This may lead you to sin without realizing it 00:10:05.820 --> 00:10:10.450 We ask God to protect us from the accursed Satan 00:10:10.450 --> 00:10:13.769 But how was the Queen of Sheba received? 00:10:13.769 --> 00:10:16.769 The message of the Prophet of God Solomon 00:10:16.769 --> 00:10:20.769 What is the position of her people regarding the message? 00:10:20.769 --> 00:10:24.450 We will continue in an upcoming meeting, God willing 00:10:24.450 --> 00:10:28.950 Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds 00:10:28.950 --> 00:10:31.309 The story of the Queen of Sheba 00:10:31.309 --> 00:10:35.309 With the Prophet of God Solomon, peace be upon him
