What this part covers

machinesummary, machine-written

Mufti Abu Layth rejects the teaching that the whole world is dar al-harb, saying it puts people one step from treating their neighbours as enemy combatants.

In more detail

Mufti Abu Layth says this is why he is against such da'wah: it draws attention-craving people to groups like Hizb ut-Tahrir [?]. He says these groups teach that all non-Muslims are impure and were created to be subdued and ruled by Muslims, and that the whole world today, Muslims included, lives in kufr and is dar al-harb. He says that if we are living in the land of war we are only a step away from declaring the people around us enemy combatants, and that their idea of Islam is about power and forcing jizya on others, which he promises to address in a later session. He calls it a virus breeding hatred, and says they deny hating non-Muslims while claiming God wants them to rule.
