Most Respected Ulema, My Respected Elders, Brothers, Sister & Beloved Children In Islam, ‫الَّس اَل ُم َعَلْيُكْم َوَر ْح َمُة ٱلَّلِه‬

Alhamdulillah, All Praise & Thanks Are Due To Allah Swt, Sustainer & Cherisher Of The Worlds, Countless Peace, Blessings & Salutations Be
Upon Our Master & Leader, Hazrat Ahmed-E-Mujtaba, Mohammed Mustafa ‫ﷺ‬, His Purified Household, His Noble Companions & All The
Rightly Guided Servants Of The Ummah Of Nabi ‫ﷺ‬

On Friday, 9th Dhul Hijjah, On The Plains Of Arafah, Which Is The Day Of Hajj, Which Is Known As Hajjatul Wada, The Final Hajj Of The Holy
Prophet Mohammedur Rasoolallah 1 ,‫ ﷺ‬Of The Most Historic Verse Of The Holy Quran Was Revealed To The Holy Prophet ‫ﷺ‬.
Al Yauma - Today, Akmaltu Lakum Deenakum - I Have Perfected Your Religion For You, Wa At-Mamtu Alaikum Ni’mati - & I Have Completed My
Blessings & My Favours Upon You, Wa Radeetu Lakumul Islaama Deena - & I Have Chosen For You As Your Deen, As Your Religion Islam.

On That Day, Every Muslim, Man, Woman & Child Knows That The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Gave A Sermon On That Day Which Is Called Khutbatul
Wada. This Khutbah Has Been Widely Circulated, Printed, People Have It In Their Homes As Frames, As The Final Will & Testament, & The
Final Guidance Of The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬For The Ummah Till The Day Of Qiyamah. What A Historic Khutbah. & 1 Of The Most Interesting
Statements That Every Child, Even In Primary School Knows, From The Farewell Sermon Of The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Is The Statement Of
Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬That I Am Leaving 2 Things For You, If You Hold Onto It You Will Not Go Astray & That Is The Quran & My Sunnah. There Are
Only 4 Chains Of Narrations Reporting This Hadith, & All 4 Are Weak. That Is A Discussion For Another Time

Let Me Read A Sahih Hadith For You - A Hadith From Jami At Tirmidhi - Narrated By Jaabir Bin Abdullah Ra. He Said: Qal, Ra-Aytu
Rasoolallahi ‫ ﷺ‬Fi Hajjatihi Yau’ma Arafah. He Said: I Saw Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬During His ‫ ﷺ‬Farewell Hajj On The Day Of Arafah, Wa Huwa Ala
Naa-Qatihil Qaswa & He ‫ ﷺ‬Was Seated On His Camel Al Qaswa, Yakhtubu Fa Sami’tuhu Yakool, He Said The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Was
Delivering His Sermon, He ‫ ﷺ‬Was Delivering His ‫ ﷺ‬Khutbah, Yaqulullahi ‫ ﷺ‬Qala Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Ya Ayyuhan Naas He ‫ ﷺ‬Said “Oh
People” Inni Qad Taraktu Feeykum He ‫ ﷺ‬Said “Oh People, Indeed I Have Left Amongst You Maa-In Akhadtum Bih, Lan Ta-Dhillu If You
Hold Onto These 2 Things You Will Not Go Astray. Every Muslim, Every Ummati Makes This Dua Every Day - Ihdinas Siraatal Mustakeem.
Here Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Is Telling Us In His Farewell Sermon - Hold Onto These 2 Things & You Will Not Be Misguided, You Will Not Go Astray.
Lan Ta-Dhillu What Is It Kitab-Allah Wa Itrati Ahla Baiti. He ‫ ﷺ‬Said: “The Book Of Allah & My Family, The People Of My House” This Is The
Hadith Narrated By Jaabir Bin Abdullah RA.

There Is Another Hadith Narrated By Zaid Bin Arqam RA. Zaid Bin Arqam RA, That Sahaba In Who’s House (Dar Al Arqam) The Holy Prophet
‫ ﷺ‬Used To Perform Salaah In When He ‫ ﷺ‬Was Banned From Performing Salaah At The Ka’ba. Zaid Bin Arqam RA Was Also 1 Of The
Oldest Surviving Sahabi Of Rasoolallah ‫ﷺ‬. He Narrates Qala Rasoolallahi ‫ ﷺ‬Inni Taariqum Feekum, Maa In Tamassaktum Bih, Lan
Tadhillu Ba’di, Ahaduhuma A’damu Minal Aakhar; Kitaabul Laah, Haddul Laahi Mamoodum Minas Samaa’i Ilal Ard Wa Itrati Ahlul Bait
He Said: I Heard The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Say: “I Am Leaving 2 Things For You Kitaabul Laah, The Book Of Allah, A Rope Which Has Been
Suspended From The Heavens To The Earth, & My Family. The People Of My Household. & He ‫ ﷺ‬Further Stated & The Quran & The People
Of My Household Will Not Be Separated Until They Meet Me At The Pond Of Kauthar. & Then He ‫ ﷺ‬Issued A Warning & Said, Be Careful
How You Deal With These 2 After Me.

This Is A Discussion For Another Day. Today I Want To Discuss What Happened 9 Days Later. 9 Dhul Hijjah, Yaume Arafah, On His ‫ﷺ‬
Camel, On The Day Allah Said I Have Perfected Your Religion For You, Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Said I Am Leaving 2 Things For You - Quran & Ahlul
Bait. This Was In The Presence Of Maybe Over 100,000 Muslims, Basically The Entire Ummah Was There Because Those Were The Only
Muslims On Planet Earth, They Were All There, With The Exception Of The Sick & Frail. So Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Spoke To The Whole Ummah &
Said I Am Leaving Quran & My Ahlul Bait. 9 Days Later, The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Is On His Way Back To Al Madinatul Munawwarah. The People
Of Yemen Are Gone, The People Of Other Areas Are Gone, Now Only The Khaas People Are There. Only The Highest Ranking Sahaba. As
Saabikoonal Awwaloon Minal Muhaajireena Wal Ansaar. The Great Sahaba. The Muhaajiroon & The Ansar.
They Are On Their Way Back With The Holy Prophet 9 ,‫ ﷺ‬Days Later On The 18 Dhul Hijjah. Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Stopped In A Place Called
Jahfah, An Area Wherein There Is A Valley Called Khum, & There Is A Pond There, So Its Called Ghadeer Khum. An Oasis Where Travellers
Would Stop To Drink Water.

The Prophet Of Allah ‫ ﷺ‬Stopped There & He Alighted & Instructed That An Area Between Some Trees Be Cleared. He ‫ ﷺ‬Then Instructed
Them To Make A Mimbar For Him ‫ ﷺ‬Which The Sahaba Did Using The Saddles Of The Camels. Nabi ‫ ﷺ‬Then Stood Up & Delivered A
Khutbah. This Khutbah Is Recorded In Sahih Muslim. Hazrat Zaid Bin Arqam RA Narrates This Hadith.
An Zaid Bin Arqam Qal: Qala Rasoolallahi ‫ ﷺ‬Yauman Feena Khateeban Bimaa-In Yud-Aa-Kum The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Stood Up & He
Delivered A Sermon. Fa Hamidal-Laahu Wa Athna Alaih The Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Praised Allah & Then Continued Ya Ayyuhan Naas, Fa Innama Ana
Bashar He Informed Thaem I Am A Human Being Who Has To Taste Death Wa Ana Taarikum Feeykum Thaqalayn & Again, 9 Days Later,
Amongst The Highest Ranking Sahaba, The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Again Repeated What He Said 9 Days Ago, To Remind Everybody, Don’t Forget
What I Said Wa Ana Taarikum Feeykum Thaqalayn, Awwaluhuma Kitaabullah Fiyhil Huda Wan Noor Fakhudu Bikaabillah Wa Thamsikum
Bih The Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Reminded The Muslims About Holding Onto The Quran & The Guidance There-In Etc & Spoke On The Virtues Of The
Quran. Thereafter, The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Said Thumma Qal: Wa Ahlu Baiti He ‫ ﷺ‬Reminds Them Of Thawqalayn (2 Weighty Things) The
Quran & Itrati His ‫ ﷺ‬Family, His ‫ ﷺ‬Ahlul Bait, His ‫ ﷺ‬Household. Then He ‫ ﷺ‬Said: Udhak-Kiru-Kumullah Fi Ahli Baiti Repeating It 3 Times,
Do Not Forget My Ahlul Bait, Beware How You Deal With My Ahlul Bait, Because He ‫ ﷺ‬Knew 1400 Years Later We Would Forget Ahlul Bait.
We Would Claim To Follow Sunnah, But We Would Forget The Sunnah Of Following & Holding Onto & Taking Guidance From Ahlul Bait.

Thereafter Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Said: Thumma Qal Innal-Laaha Maulaaya Verily Allah Is My Patron. Wa Ana Maula Kulli Mu’mineen & I Am The
Patron Of All Believers Thumma Akhada Biyadi Aliyyin Then The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Took The Hand Of Aliyul Murtadha RA & He Said Fa Qal
Man Kuntu Maula Fahada Aliyyun Maula He ‫ ﷺ‬Said: For Whomsoever I Am The Patron, Master, Leader, Teacher; Ali Is His Patron,
Master, Leader, Teacher. The He ‫ ﷺ‬Made A Dua Allahumma Waali Man Waali Ya Allah, Befriend Him Who Befriends Ali; Wa Aadi Man
Aada & Become The Enemy Of The 1 Who Is The Enemy Of Ali. The 18th Dhul Hajj, The Day That Nabi ‫ ﷺ‬Conferred The Title Of Maula On
Hazrat Ali RA
Hazrat Umar RA Was The First To Congratulate Hazrat Ali RA - Bakh Bakh Ya Ibne Abi Talib. Congratulations Oh Son Of Abi Talib. Today You
Have Become The Master & Leader Of Every Believing Man, Woman & Child Till The Day Of Qayamah.

Now I Want To Give You A Hierarchy Of Ahlul Bait. When We Say, Who Are Ahlul Bait? Scholars Have Given Different Descriptions Of Who
Are Ahlul Bait, But The Best Description Was From Sahaba Themselves. Zaid Bin Arqam RA Gave The Broadest Description Of Ahlul Bait, &
He Said: Who Are They? They Are The Family Of Banu Hashim. The Household Of The Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Are In Extension The Descendants Of
Banu Hashim, The Banu Aqeel, Banu Ja’far, Banu Abbas Are All The Greater Household Of The Prophet ‫ﷺ‬. Like We Have Extended Family,
Same Like That. That’s 1 Ranking.

The Next Ranking, Not In Any Particular Order, The Wives Of The Holy Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Are Ahlul Bait. Can You See Now Distance. The Distance
Of Relation Is Now Getting Closer.

Then Theres 1 More Category, That The Scholars Of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah Speak Of. Every Member Of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah
Accepts This. They Are The People Known As Aal-E-Kisaa / Aal-E-Abaa - The Family Or The People Of The Cloak. Who Are They? They Were
The 4 People With The Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Being The 5th Whom The Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬Enclosed & Embraced & Covered In His Black Shawl. Now, You
Have Your House & The People Staying Inside Your House. Then You Have Those Who Are In Your Bedroom, Closer Relationships, Then You
Have Those People Who You Cover Around You. Now Tell Me, Just Purely From A Physical Perspective, Which Is Closest? & The Prophet ‫ﷺ‬
Picked Up His Hands & Said: Allahumma Haa-Ulaa-I Ahlul Baiti. He ‫ ﷺ‬Said Ya Allah, This Is My Ahlul Bait. This Was To Show Everyone Who
The Closest To Him ‫ ﷺ‬Were. The Closest Of The Close. & where did this incident take place? Within the hujrah of Ummahatul Mu’mineen,
Sayyidah Salama RA, the blessed wife of Nabi ‫ﷺ‬
The Azwaajam Mutahhara RA Are All Ahlul Bait. But The Closest To Him ‫ ﷺ‬Were Those Whom He ‫ ﷺ‬Took Into His Cloak. Wheres The
Proof Of This? Quran. When The Mubahala Took Place With The Christians Of Najraan Quran Surah Aal Imraan, Verse 61 -
‫َفُقْل َتَعاَلْو ۟ا َنْدُع َأْبَنٓاَءَنا َوَأْبَنٓاَءُكْم َوِنَس ٓاَءَنا َوِنَس ٓاَءُكْم َوَأنُفَس َنا َوَأنُفَس ُكْم ُثَّم َنْبَتِهْل َفَنْجَعل‬
‫َّلْعَنَت ٱلَّلِه َعَلى ٱْلَكٰـِذِبيَن‬
Bring Your Sons & Well Bring Our Sons, Bring Your Women & Well Bring Our Women, & Bring Yourselves & Well Bring Ourselves. The
Wives Of Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Were There, But Whom Did Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Bring? The Same Ones Who Were Covered In The Cloak.

Why Are We Afraid To Speak About The Ahlul Bait & More So About Sayyidina Maula Ali RA? We Need To Learn About These Personalities.
Koyi Siddiq, Farooq, Uthman Kiya; Aur Kisi Ko Nabi Ne Ali Kardiya - Some, Rasoolallah ‫ ﷺ‬Made Siddiq, Some He ‫ ﷺ‬Made Farooq, Some He
‫ ﷺ‬Made Uthman Ghani, & 1 He ‫ ﷺ‬Made Maula Ali.

May Allah Guide Us & Bless Us To Learn & Understand Our Religion, & Protect Us From The Extremists, The Falsifiers & The Ignorant.
Ameen
