In the name of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

Tonight, I'll show you a very short story about Hadith from Abu Khari.

He narrated Abu Hurayra, the prophet,

and said that the prophet,

was a prophet of the prophets of the old,

who sat under a tree,

and a namla and ant came and beat him.

He became angry.

and so he ordered that his gatherings be gathered together so that they're leaving that place

and he burnt the entire colony of ants. So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala reprimanded him, atabahu.

And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said to him, Fahalla namla tunwahida,

why didn't you just get rid of that one ant? You destroyed an Ummah,

to sabbih because of that one ant. You destroyed an entire colony, an entire Ummah.

From all of the Ummahs that are doing this, you destroyed because of that one ant.

This is a very interesting Hadith. Today, insha'Allah, let's extract some benefits from this Hadith.

The first benefit we get, our Prophet, Allahu alaihi wa sallam, did not mention the name of the

Prophet. Can a re-yum min al-ambiyya? Why? Because a part of our Syirah and Sunnah is that when

there is something that might be interpreted negatively, you try your best to not mention the name

of the person. You cover up the faults of your brother. You do not talk about the person directly.

Ayesh and Ayesh that when the processant would want to reprimand someone and he's giving the

Khugba, he would not mention by name, he would say, why do some people do? He would not mention by name.
