My Thoughts on Sheikh Imran Hosein | Mufti Abu Layth

mother yeah what do I think of Imran Naseer Hussain hmm that's right I take it we're talking about with that spelling of Hussain we're talking about Imran share Imran who's saying from I think is he from Trinidad or somewhere you see my perspective on chef Imran I've not kind of I've not closely

watched a lot of his material I've seen some and I've got the kind of gist of all my personal take on him it may be inaccurate but you see I feel that he's very preoccupied with the kind of the apocalypse' culture you know the kind of doomsday culture that that everything is very doom and gloom in the perspective of people like chef Imran Hosein in my that's my take that's my understanding you know I could be wrong

about this but that's what I feel chef Imran Hosein preaches he everything is to do at the end of times it's all to do with the Antichrist or I know he has a different take as well on the Antichrist and that the return of Jesus and things like this but but everything is about that kind of ascetic you know give up the world do this do that and I'm very opposed to that kind of a mindset I believe that religion and Islam especially is not and has never

been about this kind of doom and gloom approach to me Islam is about optimism it's about kind of seizing the day it's about living fulfilling your potential it's not about this kind of all gonna die the world's gonna be destroyed and the cosmos is gonna collapse and it's not about that I mean whether that happens or not I mean obviously look what has a beginning will have an end okay

thus all you know has fate decreed matters so I'm not challenging that I'm not saying the cosmos will not collapse someday presumably will matter will return to being energy but my point is that should we become obsessed with this kind of a very doom and gloom approach I would argue absolutely not and I can't

emphasize enough I can't emphasize enough the hadith of the prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam where he said that if the hour was to come upon you and you are planting a plant oh you are eating a bite of food a morsel of food that continue to do so you know man Kahneman come you sorrowful USERRA let him continue to plant why I mean if if the world was coming to an end why would you be so worried about a plant and it's

not about that it's about the mindset okay it's about that kind of carpe diem that kind of you know seize it that's this a they say hadith although it's it's probably not authentic as a hadith but the meaning is still very true where it says that a yama Salathe that days are three that yeomen mother that a day which has gone and lentils recommend who she and you will never be able to recapture while yamaha teen and tomorrow you know latter three aspherical

Amla you do not know whether you shall read or not well human anta fee and a day in which you are here present the present first animal sees it and that is a to me an amazing message you know even if it's not even if that's not a hadith but I feel that that message is resonated by Islam so yeah to me I'm not about that do gloom kind of culture I feel that we need to be more optimistic because the

problem with this doom and gloom culture is it also it does fuel death cults and I'm not saying everybody who subscribes to a doom and gloom culture is part of the death cult I'm not saying that but this definitely this definitely does support that
