Said in the Quran that truly we have
sent down this reminder and we have
taken it upon ourselves to protect it
what you know I would have you home and
this is a departure from previous
revelatory dispensation from Allah in
that a lot
put the task of preservation on the
previous people we won't be masterful
in Qatar Allah they were they were given
his staff of the task of preserving the
book for themselves and this situation
in human history
resulted in the corruption of the
previous books because of the corrupted
nature of human being sold they changed
the book they wrote things in them they
took things out of them and so the
Divine Word was actually changed and so
with the final revelation and because
there would be no profits after to
rectify or to clarify the book the book
of the prophets a lot is to them and
this is one of the blessings of this
Ummah is that Allah Savannah with the
ana promised to preserve the vicar the
reminder so Allah take it upon himself
with his divine aim at how he'll because
our lies the preserver or the protector
he took it upon himself with that divine
name to maintain the Book of Allah
Savannah at the end and what that means
is that not only with the book
we preserved but all of the requisite
knowledge is needed to preserve the
message of Allah also go under that
preservation so from that the hadith is
preserved because without the hadith and
the quran can't be understood in its
entirety because the prophet saw license
life is an example and a practical
application of the Quran itself because
like aisha radi Lynette said can afford
apartment his nature was the Quran WA
indicadata hood opening so the vast
nature of the Quran because it's a
foreigner darling in who Nikita Boone
Ali no kidding
so Allah has made the book in its
greatness embodied in the greatness of
the prophets Allah I am in his nature
and so the preservation of the Sunna is
part of the preservation of the book so
the book is preserved by Allah and the
Sunnah is preserved by Allah and because
of that Allah has had two types of
people the people of Quran and those are
the first people that is Friday near
Tamimi
Robbie lana puts in his category of an
eternity well Jumeirah the people that
preserve the quran and the people that
preserve the Sunnah of the Prophet
Muhammad and from the preservation of
the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad is
the preservation of the understanding of
how the Quran is applied in human life
this is called fit and so the fit of
this Islam is preserved by the folk aha
but because the Quran the Sunnah cannot
be understood without Arabic language in
other words the fill of these two
vehicles of enlightenment awareness of
one's Lord the the two vehicles are
ignited through understanding and the
understanding can only come from the
Arabic language because Allah says
ananza Yahoo or Annan arabiya under
kunitake note we have made this
and Arabic we have made it an Arabic
Quran Ned yeah I know yeah I'm now in
the down oh oh I'm them now and them now
there's two exactly yeah there's two so
one is it was revealed in Arabic another
it was placed into Arabic the Quran or
Jannah can have different meanings in
the Arabic language so the Quran is
Arabic by its nature the Arabic cannot
be separated from the Quran because it's
Oran and out of via so because Allah has
put that attribute with the Quran you
cannot separate the out of via from the
Quran in the same way you can't separate
the the attribute of mercy from Allah
you can't say Allah is not right man
because Allah is rockman it's a it's an
attribute that cannot be separate from
Allah subhana wa to Anna and the allah's
kalam cannot be separate from the Arabic
language you can't separate the two you
can't say Kadam Allah and then you say
it's not Arabic because Allah says that
it's caught on an auto via and in a key
that there's a very fine point of
academic as a Dior Kadampa Dean and the
trans linguistic nature of that column
but you know at the the basic level in
which is Ayesha meant when she said ma
baina def attained and must have or t
tavola medina despot a and must have
Kadam Allah what's between the two
boundaries or the two the two covers of
the most house is the Kurama law that
that is the Kurama law so that is how
Allah chose to speak to human beings in
the Arabic language and therefore when
Allah said that in that level 1/2 alone
we will preserve the book not only is it
the preservation of the book but the
preservation of the Arabic language as
well so the Arabic language is preserved
now if you look at this intern
of traditional sacred scriptures we know
of all of the scriptures that claim to
be divine whether you look at the Hindu
scripture or you look at the Buddhist
scripture or you look at the Christian
scripture or the Jewish scripture all of
the books in which individuals or
communities claim that these books have
a divine status none of them have had
the preservation of the Koran and none
of their languages have been preserved
like the language of Quran now just to
look at the Judaic tradition the first
due date the first Hebrew lexicon is
already in the ninth century two hundred
years after the Islamic revelation they
don't have any dictionaries older than
that they have tradition in their oral
tradition the Mishnah where they study
the Torah of meanings of words in the
Old Testament but they do not have a
systematic lexicography that the Muslims
have in fact they got the idea from the
Muslim they literally got the idea of
preserving the words of their book from
the Muslims this means that a book that
begins its revelation several thousand
years three thousand years before that
we're not talking two hundred three
thousand years before that they begin to
actually write down what the words mean
now it's a known fact now that in Hebrew
studies Hebrew scholars are forced to go
to classical Arabic dictionaries to see
what the Arabs had to say about the root
words because the root structures are
very similar in the Semitic languages in
order to get a more ancient
understanding of their own root
structures so if a Hebrew scholar wants
to know what the root of Shalom which is
like selling my in Arabic they'll look
what see what the Arabs say about the
roots of that word because they're very
related languages so their language
wasn't preserved now we know that Hebrew
was a dead language until the foundation
of Israel like Latin it died now part of
when
which dies is you don't know how it was
originally pronounced they have no signs
of tissue Eid in their language they
don't know how their the Torah was
originally recited you see we know
exactly how the Quran was recited from
the very beginning fish weed was
preserved the Maharaja Haru which is
where the the letters emanate from their
source emanations we know exactly where
they are to the exact degree and we had
scholars and still have scholars to this
day that if you make a slight variation
and he knows it's wrong if you look at
the Greek New Testament they don't know
how it sounded they don't know how the
original Christians who were reading
that book read it so if you study a New
Testament Greek they don't know how
exactly how the vowing sounded they
don't know how though some of the words
sounded and letters and they certainly
don't know what a lot of them meant in
there and Zach meaning because the
meanings weren't preserved so there's a
great deal of debate so the books were
not preserved you see I mean even at
this level we're not talking just about
the the simple level of having the book
with you in its totality which they can
claim like the Jews can claim we have
the Torah in its totality the Christians
can claim we have the Gospels in their
totality but none of them can claim that
we know exactly what every single word
means in the Quran that we know exactly
how sounded when it was revealed or when
the people were speaking it at the
beginnings of the tradition they don't
know the only other linguistic tradition
that has any parallel to the Islamic
tradition is the Chinese there are the
only people that have had a level of
preservation in their language but still
there's much debate because there are
dictionaries although they precede the
Muslim dictionary are not as
sophisticated as the Muslim dictionary
in fact lexicography is really an
Islamic science
and the Europeans learned it from the
Muslims the earliest English dictionary
is already the 16th century in England
so we don't know how what Chows are
meant even Shakespeare you look at any
Shakespearean tradition and you'll see
that there's wide debate about what
certain words meant at the time of
Shakespeare we're only talking a few
hundred years ago 16th 17th century
English and we don't know what they
meant by the words that they were using
this is only a few hundred years ago
five hundred years ago and they don't
know what what they meant by Dahl the
word they were using some of them they
have to just say what we think he meant
this we think he meant that it could
have been this it could have been that
if you look in the Quran you will find
no word in the Quran that the Muslims
don't know the exact definition of the
word the book has been preserved in its
meanings and in its letter to the letter
and to the meanings of the letter so
part of the preservation was the Arabic
language now the other thing is is it
because of the sophistication of the
Arabic language first there's a few
things to to recognize about the Arabic
language one the nature of science is
exactness this is what science prides
itself on exactness of definition one of
the aspects and this is why scientists
have traditionally preferred mathematics
as a language to articulate meanings in
as opposed to linguistic human
communicative languages why because they
are not as exact there's a great deal of
ambiguity in them and so traditionally
the science of or the language of the
scientists has been mathematics the
Quran the Arabic language of all
languages is termed even by Western
students of the language to be a
mathematical language in fact they
called algebraic in nature it's a
precise language but within the
precision is a great deal of room but
it's very precise in its structures and
in it
formats the morphology of Arabic is
fascinating in what it can do it's what
they call in linguistics a fusional
language which is the more sophisticated
of the different various types of
languages more can be said in it it has
an inexhaustible source of root
structures and from those root
structures semantic fields of meaning
are created from the root structures one
learns about the source meanings of
words so one can go by looking at a
world if you look at a word like nuts
and nuts is an important word because it
has to do with the nature of the human
soul itself so if you look at the word
nuts
at the root of the word nafs is nafisa
and nafisa there's two forms one of them
has to do with being precious being
precious the other has to do with being
niggardly withholding so right at the
very root of the the word Mouse we're
being told something that is essential
to the human nature that it is precious
but that it's also niggardly you see now
if you begin to move out and move to a
second base which is nafisa neff as a
means to release or make easy what was
difficult manifest occur Burton Omen FSI
corabeth Athena fossil bahudha who
Korriban me Alcor bottom in corrupt
if you somebody who gives tempies for
his brother then allah gives him 10 feet
under llamo Keanu you see so the idea of
the human being is somebody who is
giving help to his fellow human beings
you not fish you know and then if you
move to the third base which is NASA it
means to compete or to vie to become
competitive now this when you start
looking at these semantic fields then
you begin to realize that the language
is not a kit there's what the Europeans
have said about it is there appears to
be an artificial 'ti to the language in
other words that it's a constructed
language that it's not an arbitrary
language because of the sophistication
of the semantic field
it appears that somebody designed the
language that it doesn't seem like just
a group of people just agreed let's
let's call this this and let's call that
this and and you can see the
arbitrariness of English you see you can
see it when they need a word they look
what how did the Greek say that how did
the Latin say that how did the German
say that how did the Celts say that and
so you can see that English language is
pulled from a lot of different languages
but when you look in the arabic language
there's a construction to the language
that would indicate that there's
intelligence behind the language itself
that it's not an arbitrary nurs and
there's debates about where language
originated there are debates some some
believe that and it's called the
dingdong theory in linguistics I think
that language originated from just
imitating sounds like ding dong you know
this is called animal patek were they
called in Arabic is more salt in Arabic
something that sounds like the thing
itself right and there are some words
like Wes witha you see Wes Wes aus we su
it sounds like the thing itself which is
to whisper
and there's a theory that this is where
language originated which is absurd is
this it's ridiculous I mean obviously
there are words that have this
characteristic or quality but there are
many words that don't now the way the
traditional Muslim scholars and this is
really important the way the traditional
Muslim scholars looked at the Arabic
language is that it was not most by the
Holly that it was not something that
people just arbitrarily agreed to call
this a Shahada you see if you look at
the word Shahada and then you get into
kufan and bustle and debates about what
comes first a verb or the noun because
there were debates amongst the scholar
but if you look at the root word of
Shahada the word has to do with
argumentation argumentation who shadow
or yet asadulin to argue to debate with
one another so you say how does the idea
of argumentation come out of the word
for a tree Shahji ah
right and Allah says don't go near this
edge out of this tree how does the word
argumentation come from the word tree
how what do you think one branches you
see where does argumentation come from
it comes from differing branches
differing understanding you see so if
you look at another word for
argumentation which is he loud not
telling fool if you look at the word ft
laughs the word ft laughs has to do it's
an eighth base verb right and the the
root is Khalifa which means to leave
behind in Khalifa is the one left behind
right like the prophets Khalifa is
Khalifa to Rasul Allah is Abu Bakr
because he was left behind to take the
place of the prophet Elijah in the
governmental aspects of the Prophet
obviously not in why because no one has
why after the Prophet but in relation to
the prophets governance there is the
hokum is there we know what the icon
and there has to be somebody to
implement it and abu-bakr took that
place and then all mod and then earth
man and say hi and then to the return of
Halawa at the end of time
so the idea of leaving behind and then
if you look at the 8th base form which
is called the if CI and form if style is
value if Tianna this form has to do with
a reflexive quality or the
internalization it's what they call in
greek they have a middle mood we don't
have it in english but it has to do with
doing something related to the self or
for the self or the internalization of
something so if you look
