Qur'an 30 for 30

 Alhamdulillahi rabbil alameen, wa la ilaha illa allah al-zalameen, wa la aqeematu lilmutakeen.  Allahumma salli wa sallim wa barak ala abdika wa rasulika Muhammadin salallahu alayhi wa  salam, wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa salam taseeman kathira.  So Jazakumullahu khayran to all of you for joining once again.  I hope you enjoyed your first day of fasting and you didn't overeat like some of us did.  But I pray that Allah azawajal put barakah in your food and your fast and in all that  you're doing and that you're finding it fruitful in these moments.  Today we released Alhamdulillah the first episode of the Angels series, if you missed  it. And we also released the first episode of From Deed to Habit on Yaqeen's social media  outlets. So please catch up with them inshallah. And reminding you once again inshallah ta'ala  to please consider supporting Yaqeen Institute inshallah ta'ala with a tax deductible zakat  eligible donation inshallah ta'ala this month of Ramadan. And we'll get straight into Juz  number two inshallah ta'ala. So there was so much richness in this that I had a hard  time skipping over the entire concept of dua. And to be honest with you, the idea of supplication  of dua weighs heavy on me in these first three adza of the Quran. It's almost like Allah  azawajal is teaching us how to make dua for the rest of the Quran. And then if you look  at the duas of the prophets, the supplications of the prophets, you can actually plug them  back into those formats. And so that's why the virtual khutbah today I talked about comparing  the dua of Adam alayhi salam, which comes on the heels of a slip and the dua of Ibrahim  alayhi salam, which comes on the heels of an act of obedience and what that means for  us. But I want to continue and I know Sheikh Abdullah inshallah is going to go into detail  with kutiba alaykum usliyan kama kutiba ala lathina min qablikum min shahru ramadana allathee  unzila feehi alquran. And subhanAllah that beautiful moment in taraweeh when you first  hear the imam in taraweeh recite shahru ramadana allathee unzila feehi alquran. May Allah subhan  ala'la allow us to recite it in our taraweeh and also to live to witness that moment once  again. So we left off juz one and the change of qibla is mentioned to Mecca, which is a  return to the Abrahamic way. So Ibrahim alayhi salam making dua to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala  for there to be a, you know, an ummah that would uphold the concepts, the theology, the  khuluq, everything that has to do with this message and Allah blessing Ibrahim alayhi  salam through his noble descendants and the Prophet Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa sallam  doing just that and then now turning us back towards the qibla. And then comes the ruling  of fasting now and shahru ramadana allathee unzila feehi alquran. Ramadan is mentioned  as the month in which the book was revealed. And in fact, we know from the Prophet salallahu  alayhi wa sallam that every holy book was revealed in the month of Ramadan. Every holy  book was revealed in the month of Ramadan. The Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam said  the suhuf of Ibrahim alayhi salam, of Abraham peace be upon him, the Psalms of Dawood alayhi  salam, the Torah, the Injil were all revealed in the month of Ramadan and the Quran was  revealed. The final revelation was also revealed in the month of Ramadan. So we mentioned that  you start off by asking Allah for guidance, which is surah al-Fatiha. Allah responds with  surah al-Baqarah which is that,  dhalikal kitabu la rayba fee hudan lilmuttaqeem  This is a guidance for the pious. And then Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la shows us the  different ways that people interact with guidance on the basis of the condition of their hearts  and their willingness to abide by the principles of guidance and the requirements of guidance.  So Allah did not wrong anyone. Allah did not make this message too difficult for people  to be able to grasp. Some people came into it with a noble intention and Allah Subh'anaHu  Wa Ta-A'la always elevates them, even if they fall short at times. Some people come in with  the intention to twist and they always fail and they always fall on their faces. May Allah  Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la protect us. But I want you to connect this now, right away Allah  Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la as he tells us about shahul Ramadan, the month of Ramadan. Allah  says, wa li tukmeelu al-iddata wa li tukabbiru Allaha ala maa hadakum  Okay, SubhanAllah, so that you finish this period of Ramadan and that you glorify Allah  and you praise your Lord for that which He guided you to. So the Quran starts with a  du'a for guidance. Al-Baqarah is the response, surah al-Baqarah, this chapter is a response  saying here is the book of guidance. And Allah mentions Ramadan as the month in which we  really learn the value of that guidance. Okay, and then du'a is mentioned again, wa idha  sa'alaka ibadi anmi fa inni qareeb And when my servant asks you about me, then I am close  to him. ujeebu da'…
