Sahih al-Bukhari – The Book of Tawheed – Lesson 51 (28/04/18) While I was with the Prophet, some people from Bani Tamim came to him. The Prophet said, "O Bani Tamim! Accept the good news!" They said, "You have given us the good news; now give us (something)." (After a while) some Yemenites entered, and he said to them, "O the people of Yemen! Accept the good news, as Bani Tamim have refused it. " They said, "We accept it, for we have come to you to learn the Religion. So we ask you what the beginning of this universe was." The Prophet said "There was Allah and nothing else before Him and His Throne was over the water, and He then created the Heavens and the Earth and wrote everything in the Book." Then a man came to me and said, 'O Imran! Follow your she-camel for it has run away!" So I set out seeking it, and behold, it was beyond the mirage! By Allah, I wished that it (my she-camel) had gone but that I had not left (the gathering). Today we covered: • What was at the beginning of the Universe? • What was created first? • The 4 basic concepts of the decree of Allaah (Qadr) o The knowledge of Allaah encompasses everything o It is all written in the preserved tablet o Al-Mashia – The will of Allaah. Whatever Allaah wills it will occur and whatever Allaah does not will, it not occur. o The creation of Allaah - Everything is created by Allaah • Decree was written 50,000 years before the creation of the heavens and the earth • The 3 places where we are going to live • The 3 that will follow you when you die • The importance of leaving knowledge behind for your families • Live in this world as a stranger • Allaah always was and always will be and we do not delve any further into this matter.
