May Allah bless brother Muhammad hijab and the sapience institute for there efforts with this amazing series
we (Muslims) cannot achieve victory unless we achieve two conditions each one of them is needed but not enough on its own. First, we can achieve victory when we are monotheists; when we announce our weaknesses to Allah the Exalted. When we place our trust in Allah the Exalted, as Muslims did in Badrs’s battle, as stated by Allah the Exalted:
[Allah had helped you at Badr, when you were of a contemptible little force]
[Al 'Imran 123]
Second, we can achieve victory after making adequate preparations, as stated by Allah the Exalted:
[Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your ability]
[Al-Anfal 60 ]
In this verse, there is a gentle gesture. That is, Allah the Exalted does not ask us to prepare power that is equivalent to our enemies’. This may be beyond Muslims’ ability, in particular in these days because our enemies are much more developed than us in terms of electronic war, satellites, missiles, hit accuracy, chemical, deadly and moral weapons, media and the like. So, if Allah the Exalted orders us to make preparations that are equivalent to our enemies’, this will be beyond our recent ability. However, Allah the Exalted had mercy upon us, and thus ordered us just to prepare the power available to us. Allah the Exalted says:
[Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your ability]
[Al-Anfal 60 ]
Allah the Exalted also ordered us to truly believe in Him and announce our weakness to Him. Only then, we can achieve victory since Allah the Exalted says:
[And that our forces, they surely must conquer]
[As-Saffat 173]
[O you who believe! If you will aid (the cause of) Allah, He will aid you, and plant your feet firmly]
[Muhammad 7]
[and it was due from us to aid those who believed]
[Ar-Rum 47]
[We will, without doubt, help our apostles and those who believe, (both) in this world's life]
[Ghafir 51]
These facts are taken for granted. When do Muslims get defeated then? The answer is:
They do when they do not make adequate preparations that are available to them against their enemies or when they feel proud of themselves forgetting Allah‘s grace upon them. This would make them undergo a kind of hidden but serious unbelief in Allah. Thus, we (Muslims) undergo defeat either due to our weak belief in Allah or our weak preparations. If we have sufficient belief in Allah and are well-prepared, we will certainly achieve victory. For instance, even Prophet Muhammad’s (Peace Be Upon Him) companions whom Allah the Exalted has acknowledged their superior status in Islam and was pleased with them, as stated in the Quran where Allah the Exalted says:
[Allah’s Good Pleasure was on the Believers when they made promise to you under the Tree]
[Al-Fath 18]
Despite all of that they lost the battle because they were afflicted with a hidden kind of unbelief in Allah, in particular when they were proud of their number (about 10 thousand fighters) and of the fact that they had control over the whole Arab peninsula since they were the biggest power in the peninsula at that time. As stated by Allah the Exalted:
“On the day of (the battle of) Hunayn: look! Your large numbers made you very happy, but they did not help you a little bit: The land, being that is wide blocked you, and you turned back to withdraw”
[At-Tawba 25]
What can we learn from this lesson in our daily life?
For instance, if a merchant buys a kind of goods without thinking about it, without knowing what goods are required for the market, without knowing its financial feasibility or without considering the prices in the market, i.e., he buys the goods randomly, then it can be said that this merchant did not make sufficient preparations. And if he says ‘I will buy it’,
and did not ask Allah’s help, he has a kind of weakness in his belief in Allah the Exalted. In this case, he can never sell it. In consequence, he will win nothing.
Amazing work brothers

Before our fellow disciples discuss this; the difference between complacency and contentment:
If I may share a perspective based on some experiences in my life.
Complacency القناعة -pertaining to an idea or a principle or an issue
A. Has to be incomprehensible at first or refuted, or simply impossible to imagine as true
B. It requires appealing to reason, a unique way to communicate to one’s inner logic, and most importantly ‘time’
C. Once it’s achieved, it is shielded from doubt but it is not impossible to defy it in argumentation or temptation
As for
Contentment الرضا
-pertaining to a life event(s)
A. It is within a believer’s innate sense to instantly be coveted by contentment
B. It takes so much strength and energy to keep it alive within or in other words, it keeps one’s heart beating with contentment
C. It is beautiful, rare and gives serenity to that person
D. It can be snatched from one’s heart if anger or grief keeps infiltrating in many instances
And when it’s gone; you lose your sense of confidence and lose a glimpse of your character
Contentment ought to be practiced… especially when different life events fuel negative emotions that prey on one’s heart.
(I hope I got it some of it right)

From Palestine, Gaza City
call from Gaza from the midst of war death, hunger, destruction and pain. To the lovers of goodness, a kind greeting to every Muslim from a Palestinian mother from Gaza. The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “We will never diminish the money you have given in charity.” narrated by Muslim

I have four orphan children, and we are in the midst of a war of extermination, displacement, hunger, pain, wounds, and deprivation. They were martyred in this war. My family and now I'm alone without a father. Today, I make this appeal to you from among the rubble and destruction, my brothers. I live under difficult circumstances, an unjust siege, and a blind war that destroyed my city in which I live, and my home that houses my children’s dreams. Today, I found myself living on top of the ruins of my home in a tent no more than a few meters long, with me and my four children. This is a very difficult thing that no human being can bear. I live in very difficult conditions without food, water, and flour due to the siege, and we drink water. Polluted due to lack of money and my children’s fear of war, and now I am asking for help and assistance in order to restore the smile of life to my children, and I am in dire need of your contribution in order to rebuild my house that was demolished, and I ask (WhatsApp me to donate 00970592511969)I wrote to you these short words that do not express a little of the pain and wounds that we are experiencing in Gaza, and I write these words to you while tears do not leave my eyes from the pain and cruelty of life. I hope that you will be supporters of my cause in all parts of the world and the ugliness of the injustice that we live in every day, but every minute. We lose loved ones every day. And do not forget the difficulty of life in a small tent that does not exceed a few meters. God was a protector for us from the heat of summer and the cold of winter in the tent, and today all my dreams are to drink a drop of cold, clean water in the summer and feed my children. Praise be to God in any case, this is God’s command. Note: I have a child who is sick in the eye, and he is forbidden by the doctor’s prescription from high heat and sunlight. How can he be in a very hot tent? Therefore, I ask you to help me in maintaining my house.

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 6 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 15,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 45,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967716638472 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/--~«««~-♡~♡~♡~~•~•~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡♡♡~~~: ~:~¡~¡~¡~;I.i.i.i.i.i. i.I.|-.&__،،،،،،،،،،،،،،،.......
I really love your lectures bro hijab, but explaining everything in "logic" is wrong. The problem is that Allah emphisizes that "HE is the one who helps" not because "you THOUGHT your numbers will help you and you were not concentrated to victory therefore you lost" maybe im missing something but its everything explained in logic like "if your vision is not pure enough you will lose" for me this is an argument from an atheistic point of view. Maybe im missing something. Allahu a'lam.
Hunain is the second time muslim got temporary defeat after uhud once again for valuable lessons
Hunayn was a victory
@@adamsnow4979 like uhud which started as victory then defeat then stalemate to ultimately victory in hamra al asad hunain was defeat to victory
@@abdullahassaffah the Muslims never withdraw so how was it a defeat even in the beginning. A rout in the midst of a battle is something normal even happened in yarmouk
