today at you know I've been there's been a few complaints that I've not I've been ignoring neglecting the the actual live questions the horchata kabhi kabhi yeah hum be in Sun hair oh cool ooh bani adam' ha ha so i'm from amongst them me see this is the thing i always make an intention but like i always intend to start so early but it's that same thing me Derek are

do do MIDI time to your Big Z right so what's going on people what's going on so obviously I can't go through all of you I can't be giving everybody a shout out but I'm not ignoring you but throwing over here give I give I uh alright so the thing is nope nope nope right let's take a look at some of these questions before we do let's catch up with some of the stuff that's been going on this week people this week right I
tell you what to cheer up the mood as always how about we take a little poem that I've got for no not that one this is this is the kind of thing we you don't what's happened to my tracks esta pasando esta pasando let's see alright here is people check this couch XO chuckle sufficiently
exert a cult citizen rémoulade reasonable people that was incredibly emotional moving on to something else emotional I want to mention this is I did make an announcement about this this is share see the Mohammed boobs are a great scholar that was committed to especially hadith studies right throughout his lifetime somebody was a student of the Hale Kotani and share
half a model home already and also had the honor of meeting even harsher this scholar who was I believe he drew he was in his early 90s although I think some people said it was he was 88 but when I spoke to him I met him a few years back and at that stage I was under the impression that he said he was actually at that stage 91 or just 90 so but quite seen as you can see right till his final days committed to the study of
a veil of sacred knowledge also amongst who I consider amongst my teachers he gave me a Jazza in going through these main scholars of the Hale Kotani going right through even harsher and see the ahmed al Hamadi so I thought I'd share that you know there is there's at more people Allah those who say I don't wish I were commies yellow yellow okay Parker Dick
Lugar right so and I was sitting with I spent a whole day actually with this year at a time when he had for several years prohibited any guests me he really wasn't taking any kind of guests and things like that yet he still invited me to his home and we spent you know most of that day they really just chatting discussing several things there's an an awesome picture right there look at that and the guy had style though yet class you gotta say look at
the staff right here he's just briefly discussing the matter so right I thought I'll just share some of those things the scholar had passed away just this week gun mail la elevators madam in general fair DOS and I said that you see to me
rather than this being a sad moment I rather opted to kind of commemorate and celebrate his life I mean he'd lived a long life a fulfilling life and in many ways iconic and symbolic of devotion and commitment now even though to be fair in many things I you know in my approach in my opinions I may disagree with share city Bull hopes up but still you know for somebody to have spent his entire life
committed to the studies of hadith I you know I'm absolutely in awe of that right so I thought I'd share these moments so may Allah bless him in the afterlife I mean right so what is going on skybox TV hacks is asking can I do a can we do it the lawful may allah enable more TV hacks no I'm just messing all right so it's below
yadi wants a driving test he wants to pass in his driving test yeah you know what we should do we should do you know like in the masjids they have they say a cha tofu Lanka tariffs a Punchbowl 900 RPG and they start naming everybody that's paid to make a draw I'm just messing it shall I don't worry you'll fly through your driving test don't worry about it man so what is going on people what is going
on somebody's asked mark long Zetas has asked could you explain surah saff at verse 6 to 10 is that to do with the shayateen because if it is I've got a detailed explanation already which is online so yeah I've already got a detailed explanation of that Allah look at that how did I know people about
the sea I just blacked in of course intuition it Oh Ferris it'll mean see when you said verse 60 I was like is that got a feeling that's the one about the shayateen I've got a in nakedness dunya busyness ANILCA work it why have them in coulis Shaitaan him married like some in Manila look the fool Ameen coonley journey the horror of one another boom a double wasup another thing you see this I have explained this
before that you see this two ways of looking at these kind of things but I'll go over it briefly now but I have got a video explaining it in more detail [Music] somebody said Javed the Hamid II Saab is doing a UK tour alright okay I wasn't too I mean I don't really know about that I'll get in touch and find out right so you see the way these things work in my understanding is this two ways one is
the literal that Ally speaking about share theme like actual demons we've got a you know like let's say demons flying around floating around they are capturing these things they are then like this is an actuality a physical actuality that's on one hand on the other hand this is really referring to forces and it's a personification of forces you see so for example bad things
bad forces now you see but when we talk about negativity in forces that doesn't really mean it's evil but it means that we as humans can perceive some of these things as evil so for example a hurricane in and of itself is not evil but to us it is evil you understand because the harm it causes us but in and of itself it's the kind of you know the
tidal you know the pressure the atmospheric pressure that is kind of building up and and then it's you know manifesting as this kind of hurricane this is not or or an earthquake in and of itself is not evil the tectonic plates are kind of shifting and or a tsunami or a volcano erupting yet these forces the negativity they carry is from our worldview our perception so forces the
people perceive these forces in a and in a kind of personified manner that they refer to them as though they are we as though they are alive you know it's like how people will watch out like this fire or like people who ride the sea often who go out to sea or go out you know are on ships and boats to them it feels as though the sea is alive and it is kind of it is dangerous and cruel to them you
know it has no mercy on people but really the sea is not a person but it's through our perspective that we personify it and this is how these verses on this hand are referring to these things they're not actually demons and so on but it's how humans view certain forces certain things that they read into in this case whether it will be kind of through astrology or through the cosmos or through things like this and allies referring to them or speaking
to them addressing them in a kind of with narratives that they are familiar with so that's one way of looking at this okay that's probably how I understand these things the other way is you actually feel that now these are actual demons it's not a personification it's an actual demon doing this so these are the two kind of ways that this all right SID all right people our correspondent was all the way in
Pakistan risking the coronavirus hamdulillah I take it you're back safe and sound you know people what is going on with this coronavirus man seriously it's crazy I mean the year 2020 begins and if you think about what has just happened in January alone there's been these you know bush fires of biblical proportions in Australia as soon as you get into the month then
there's been almost a World War 3 potentially a nuclear war and before the month ends there's been a global epidemic an outbreak of a contagion a virus that is so deadly in God oh so dangerous I mean I don't know about it being so deadly but so dangerous Wow it's it's it's it's crazy man and then now we've had this terrorist attack in London what is it how did this stratum
or but in London you we've had this this nutcase go out stop two people we're a fake kind of terrorist vest and then get shot to death what I don't understand is how was this guy released like this I mean how they had two offices on him I don't what is the Security Service doing how can you have two officers on this guy they must have had his equipment bugged they must have had these things how is he doing this the guy had expressed I think they said
something like between a dozen to 20 times or something they said on our reading different reports where he had expressed the wish to be involved in terrorist activities he had expressed the wish himself to kind of perpetrate attacks within the UK how is how are people like this just being you know just I I mean I feel that people like that are a categorical threat unless they have completely kind of after I don't know them but just to let them back into
society like that and then they go ahead and do this they kill two people you know what the or they I mean this and the damage that this does to Islam and you see another comfort and this isn't to blame comforts I mean converts obviously take a major step and a major sacrifice in their life but I do say to people that look this is the problem with that WA you know just today I was at the hairdresser's Dino's giving Dino
a shout-out right so obviously and I met this this brother Cam'ron and we got into this chat about this we were just chatting about dawa and this was my point that I feel that the hour is a nightmare you know we should just I do feel I say people get offended when I say this that we should stop doing that why because I feel that all we're doing is just harming this thing and then we're attracting kind of like what we're doing is we're attracting nutcases and
then we're stuck with them so now it's a Muslim problem all right what's the door for coronavirus this I'm telling you this open this an amine came right up
God where would we be without memes Allah just remember I just realized I haven't shared this thing I'm like what kind of coup for am i doing people what kind of car is this where don't even share one momento right so all right of shitty so what is going on right so shape are them right you've asked two questions one on Malachy Fick
and one on learning Arabic right I feel ok let's let's tackle this I do feel that you see when it comes to books in English my knowledge is lacking because I I mean I do read in English obviously but I you know I don't like books and things like that in English so I'm so out of sync with what's available that
said I'm sure that look I know chef Ali lorac he had a book on Maliki Fick which was in English I believe imam sahib web has recently published a book as well which i believe is based more or less on Maliki fit I could be wrong about your mom's for habes book but I believe it is but there are other books available like there was a book called the helping guide or something like that I think the helping guide or the helping guide and they've was I'm not sure if it's still
about but there was a commentary by sher Hamza Yusuf Ani so when I first became Maliki that was one of the first things I actually went through many years ago this is like in the 90s god so a lifetime ago it's a different universe now when I think about it I think it must have been 97 or 98 was it but yeah and I was just 18 at the time so now I went through sher Hamza Yusuf was going over it's
more sugar mine in Arabic it's it's a commentary on even our shade which is a basic text in Malik you fit it's a it's a kind of versified a poem in Malik effect very popular now Sher Hamza Yusuf was going over it with a Mauritania either Morabito Hajj or somebody else but he's translating no I mean it's in Arabic anyway he's kind of translating what the chef is saying so it is so it is very it was very beneficial it was in so many because at the time we had cassettes can I'm going
back to him we had even if you give them too if you give those cassettes to a kid today they'll be like what we did with this it's the one way he can turn so it had like something like was it fifteen cassettes or twenty cassettes or something and they were recordings at the time and so unless you're Hamza Yusuf has had it removed but it was available it was a private recording by somebody you know I even had the book his actual translation Hamza Yusuf I don't know where it is now to be honest with you I've ready in like I'm saying
and it must have been 1997 or something I don't maybe I gave it away of something because I haven't really seen it around anywhere but nevertheless you can you can go through that is I've got a few Maliki fit courses on YouTube I've got there's how to pray check out my video I go through it with an actual demonstration and done by Shaaban doing it in the background right so now so check that out
I do also I've also got a commentary on the ash mal we end six lectures it's on YouTube it's audio I go through there's a foundational book reasonably foundation level by called the yieldco foundations of Islam or idol Islam it's actually called alayalam bitter or if you who do the Adel Islam but so I go through that in 20 lectures that's on YouTube as well so you can check that out these books are available soon my website will be up
and most evil acecomm and these books will be available on there as well to download and things like that but there are I know I Shapley on her website has several Malachy fig works translated into English so you can check that out as well so this is all on Malachy resources on the Arabic language I think there's so much out there now that I really was a great advocate and still AM of dr.
sort these Quranic Arabic I don't know if you guys would really like it but I went through it a while back I taught it I'm going to see if I can get hold of those videos and if I can I'll try and have them live streamed but I found the book very amazing but I can see it can be boring for some people but you see what he does is they explain some rules and then he gives Quranic verses that you can now understand and the way I would do it is I would first of all as I begin I would just read over all the units the kind of in today's
let's say this this kind of uni what all the Arabic I would read it whether I understand it or not I've read through the whole thing then I would listen to it at that time when I began the pronunciation then I would go to the end of that unit copy the glossary and so I've now understood it like I've got the words then I would copy out the whole Arabic unit thing and then I would read through the lesson and by the end of that he would have an activity where you can now understand so these verses of
the Quran so that was something I definitely you know I like that cool let's I hope that's of some help there are other books RB of Aeneid they can stuff like this which are good as well another but you know you got us sometimes very 8 and diversify but the main thing is just get on to it you know watch TV series in Arabic TV movies with Arabic subtitles do anything everything you can cool sir for us Ansari has asked
keep on doing it doing it you're doing it with the super stickers right much love right back at you mind you doing it you're doing it right there was a question from Sarfaraz Ansari can men or boys with pink in touch with the delicate side of course men can wear pink there's nothing wrong with that there's nothing wrong in being in touch with your with your more effeminate no it doesn't have to be feminine I think
pink looks good on on men as well I'm sure it does I mean it when I say pinky doesn't I I don't mean by that light lipstick you're like yeah people he said he said pink looks good on me but pink looks good on men I mean as well like pink shirts pink t-shirts you know things like this I've got a I've got at least one or two kind of pink t-shirts you know for the for the March for the
parade not tauba tauba tauba common common loot you know what I find so sad is the it's attributed to a profit that's just so sad isn't it come home loot that's the people of lot of loot that's like saying the people of Abraham the people of it's like for no reason the Prophet gets it you know it's like just
everybody uses that term and they use it in a derogatory way and all they do is just insulting the Prophet a prophet loot the Ali cellar right so let's take a look at some of these questions why are you a rationalist oh yeah how do we answer contestant why are you a rationalist Oh what should I be an irrational list what is you know we are
the only people as Muslims who seem to mock and satirize and ridicule people for using their intellect like we think like that's a dumb thing like he's using his brain this is so stupid like nobody in human history like literally nobody has ever said that's like a mean like literally nobody ever and then some Muslims hahaha he's using his brain okay
that's why we are humans we use our brains right mentim menta iraqis askesis of course of course right you see if not by reason I ask you if not by reason then how can how can we prove oh when I say prove I mean as in to substantiate the validity of what we believe in if
not by reason it is only by reason right why do you place rationality is he's not rational teats reason I place at the top of the epistemological hierarchy Oh so it's it's like that is it one must peruse rather sophisticated vocabulary right so you see because if
not by reason then how how can you ever discuss truth how can you have a dialogue on truth unless it's my reason how do you say you just say oh because I feel it so somebody says oh I'm God and they say well no that doesn't make any sense all but you're using your reason what is he supposed to use to debunk them so reason I'm not saying it's perfect but it's the only the best thing that humans have to argue anything to prove anything to substantiate their
points to be able to have a meaningful dialogical discourse on something especially huge concepts like truths and existence and reality and God and the only thing that can serve that discourse is reason otherwise it's just you know oh I experienced that I'm God well whatever you say doesn't matter now because you're just using reason aha so exactly so this is my point so reason is the ultimate it's through this voice of reason that we come to recognize that oh
actually yes there is a God there is you know this makes sense that's the whole purpose you're not meant to blindly follow in faith it's meant to make sense to you right so somebody said surah 65 verse 4 child marriage in the Iran that's not true gonna boy has asked gonna boy why gonna why that's that for some reason just sounds wrong I don't know that's gonna boy 69 I don't know what
you're gonna boy but you know it's not for us to judge you know not know judging you know noted Inc so it's not true the if it's the verse that I believe you're referring to then I have a clip already dedicated to that that does the Quran permit child marriages and categorically not the verse of the Quran if you're referring to that one that will let Allah meeya hidden ax and that how long should women wait after divorce and he mentions that Allah - laughs Miley mentions those who are pregnant and women wait their menstrual
cycles and he says well Latty let me ahead 'no and those who do not have menstrual cycles it did not mean little children it said those who do not have this many women who don't sometimes have a menstrual cycle or they have very irregular cycles that they will wait three months so by taking that verse you're taking it out of context it does not mean and to prove it a vlog goes on to say one Nissa that intellect milanesa women women is the word that is used
right so that's a clear word of the Quran it means what women okay it's the plural of Umbra it's not built or Giardia or Subbiah or things like this it's not that it's Nyssa that is used in those verses right so Jack Rosalie says why are you so good why are you so good look waha yeah Jack it's people like this that we need every day to kind of gaseous up just boost our ego [Laughter] nevertheless Mucha
gracias Jack Rosalee right so Frank the aunt Frank the aunt let's take some Facebook questions move T sub someone told me your teacher to Curie Jessa right so I have the type of each asset I have there on its own Facebook in my bio when it's on the highlights on Instagram so I have a jazz in the Quran that
teacher who was a student of chef Darby she he's but both of them have passed they passed away in them I mean chef Darby she before and and my chef during the whole kind of Syrian uprising he was from Damascus so that's my jazz in the Quran then we had madrasah ijazat and those ijazat were also granted on the basis of things like you have to take tests pass the tests and not only did I pass the tests I came in the top
positions I came in the top three you know out out of a class of ninety five students top three you know it's not bad especially when you'd spent the whole night watching movies [Laughter] so it's this this is so I so I actually won several prizes and as far as the motherís is concerned so and then there's obviously chef CD boobs who's passed away now he's given me jazz
as well so I mean none of my teachers as far as I'm awake have revoked a jazz so to speak and it's not something that can really be revoked it's not really something like that it's just a chain of transmission so it's like saying that look I for example me worthy of this now you know you usually it's of two types one is that you are already qualified so you're going to go ahead and teach those things potentially the other is a buttercup one where you just attend the gathering and
they just give you a kind of etirsa so I mean that one I suppose it's more just tradition it's just a kind of for a blessing the first kind like a license in saying well I to authorize you in teaching it is what it is isn't it no it doesn't really make any sense that people can Unruh VOC revoke they kind of authorize you they say oh now I not authorized that doesn't really make any sense so right right how do I bring about my
spouse not to shout at me well cos this is a problem people let's let's you know people comfort comfort group together group together we've got a problem right Real Talk real talk though shouting you know this is something that in relationships if this is how your relationship is I don't mean as a one-off like something happened in a person shouted that's you know humans the things happen something happened something broke and somebody shouted or
you know that's understandable it's a reaction but it's where something is not a reaction we the reaction part is over or it's not and somebody's just screaming and yelling that is just degrading and more than anything it's disrespectful so honestly in a relationship like that I would say that you need to have some serious words but on a serious note you need to say sientate por for all there are Bertier that don't you need to nicely in gentle
words but you need have self-respect and this goes both ways regardless of gender people you know it's not a relationship really if I mean I suppose it is a relationship but a terrible one if it's kind of condescending okay and I'll tell you something you know in psychoanalysis you have this kind of branch of it that that is called transactional analysis and the way views people it says that to the kind of transactions they have as in they the
interaction they call it transactions their interaction they say that there's certain mindsets there's three mindsets that a person an ego state and that a person fluctuates in between so they say one is of a child an adult and a parent and they say that as you transact or interact with the other person in accordance to these you switch ego states so let's say so for example it could be that somebody's having a mature
conversation and you now have a mature come saying you switch to an adult ego state adult adult sometimes let's say something like flirting somebody could be flirting now you're kind of switching as an adult you're switching to a childlike kind of ego state in a sense of having some fun obviously it's adult fun but it's still kind of childlike in the kind of things that are being said or done or and the other person reciprocate the ego state switches to a childlike now you see what happens in
relationships sometimes is one of the couple will sometimes switch to para parenting the other couple and what happens is the other couple switches to the child ego state automatic so it's like imagine one of the couple saying like oh I told you not to leave your clothes around lying around you know what is wrong with you I've told you so many times don't you see this is what a parent does to a child so they assumed the parent ego state and by
doing so on many occasions they automatically trigger the child ego state in the other so the other person like reacts how a child would react and you see the problem with this is though the parent-child dynamic in a spousal relationship is a disaster because people are not you see if you start to mother your husband will you start to father your wife as in you're treating them like a child that ego state that
you've adopted is no longer attractive to the other person you understand it becomes a like it's one that just it's the parent ego state that's all it is it's therefore responsibilities and discipline and rules and regulations but it's not an attractive kind of ego state so so it's important to try and assess these things and I human beings kind of fluctuate through all of these but if a person starts to persist this kind of an ego state I feel it would have a huge
detrimental impact on the relationship to come so and shouting is a fine kind of thing and I think sometimes I could be wrong but I think you know like as I grow older see it's age as I'm aged I don't know whether it's as I'm aging or what but I seem to have a reduced tolerance to things like shouting and things like like I don't know like I so I don't know whether it's just now or me or age or is it just it's that it's always been there but I'm just more conscientious of it now or is it so so I
don't know but I mean I I definitely feel that these things are unacceptable I don't mean the reactionary ones the reactionary ones can be they kind of diminish circumstances and can be excused so I hope that gives some make some sense all right so let's move on people let's move on what right okay I was just checking if there were any notes ruling on your solar law Ibrahim no sorry aleem load he arrived from the Lodi Sultanate and Lodi dynasty
from India Allah is he saying here so Lala there's nothing wrong in saying ya rasulallah salallahu alihi wasalam it's just calling out to the Prophet just as we call out to people when we're on our own or we envisage we're having conversations with people we envisage sometimes some people are can see us that when they can't we kind of know they can't but our experiencing cells fields that they can and it's you know in laconian you know Lacan is also from a monk from this the psychodynamic kind
of tradition within psychology but in laconian psychology psychoanalysis they have what is what is called you have the you have the ideal ego but you have an ego ideal and you see they differentiate that they have you see what they say is that we always feel one is the the kind of ideal ego not that but what they're saying is it's we feel that we are often
being watched by a particular person now it could be they could be a friend it could be a loved one it could be somebody that the one that got away the one that but we field we are being watched by a person and we kind of and and we may do things at time even though I suppose we know from the rational us knows that we're not but the experiencing us feels that you
know what like like here like that person's watching me somehow even though this sounds bizarre but we all most people experience this and they refer to this as the distinction between the ideal ego and the ego ideal in laconian psycho dynamics now they feel that this develops at an early stage when a baby who is completely incapable the infant it can't even cruel he is completely dependent on the mother so the mother he
feels or she feels the baby that the mother is him or her they feel that it's one self one nerves because they see they can't separate themselves from the this other and what happens is this self this other self the mother goes away it distances its that like it it walks off into the other room and it comes back and it watches and the infant always feels the kind of looking glance of the
mother and it kind of longs for it especially while sits in an incapable stage of doing anything for itself and this looking glance become so entrenched within our psyche that even that we forever carry throughout our lives our lifespan even though we may shift it on to other people I mean this is the the laconian kind of psychoanalytic perspective on it I'm not saying it has to be like that but this is a theory
these things are not necessarily they're not against Islam by the way they're just you know a way of of looking at things that's all right okay let's move on people let's move on what all right let's take some Facebook questions mufti saab what is your view on share Ramadan or booty I think Chevron Madonna booty you know was a great scholar he was definitely a scholar of his time I've benefited a lot from some of his books I love his Q&A books madness I've got at
least two two of them I don't know if he's got more of them but and I think it's a shame he got caught up in this whole political thing in Damascus in Syria and but I mean hey I did meet him in my lifetime and in his lifetime in my lifetime I suppose in my lifetime too but in his lifetime I did meet him and I attended only a few of his Druce not many he used to hold live Druce a Thomas J than them and it would be run packed seriously
but yeah it's a shame the whole politics and everything right may Allah grant him an elevated maqam engine I mean it's a shame you know this whole thing II see it ghetto it's always political Rajan et people Raj you know there was this thing between him and I think chef yaku be and the whole and their followers and things like that have you met chef no ha Meem killer I have met chef no ham him kill on several occasions but many years ago I don't think he definitely won't remember because at that time I was just
beginning my journey of knowledge so I wasn't the kind of this result I met him in Damascus he would at that time he was living I think in Jordan but he was spending a considerable amount of time in Damascus and that time chef shahuri I believe was still alive and and chef no Haim Kelly used to hold weekly gatherings and he stoled added ruse as well and he wasn't that inaccessible he was quite accessible so I did attend a few of these kind of gatherings and things like that and met him on a few occasions
whilst I was in Damascus this is the kind of flying Imams a shark it was in Damascus you know it's an overlap those years several people were in Damascus chefs are kept Shami came to Damascus at that time I think ShareThis rod came a little later on but you know a lot of these people were in there was a sheikh jihad was in Damascus at the time there was it's quite a few people who went back and became kind of shoe and things like that you know it's amazing how the paths
are intertwined right so right somebody has asked all right if I frozen the the face the YouTube comments one moment or I'm thinking how come nobody's making any how come nobody's commenting on YouTube and that's because be mindful of how you speak of olya such as Muhammad Ali Abu B I like your videos but please be respectful as he is an amazing scholar and he deserves more
respect I've not got anything against Sharia Kobe to me he's a chef but you have to remember look to me I don't see these people the way sometimes maybe you guys will see them or some of you guys you know - some of you guys share Kobe is the he is everything you know he's just like one step below being a prophet or something you know - I've seen people speak of Sharia Kuby like you know they've told me that he's Arabic they feel is
as good as the jahiliya aerobic in his I just heard what they've said and thought okay you know to me remember I am in this hierarchy as I say I'm not in it I am the higher you see I'm a Mufti myself and so whether I I don't not into that piety game like they are and into that the sub wolf game of trying to get more reeds and disciples and things like that but to be fair I respect chef yaku
B but I've not seen anything so massively revolutionary when it comes from knowledge from chef yaku be maybe like I've said before maybe he has it but he doesn't share it no he may be shares in secret I've not really ever seen any radical concepts being tackled I've not seen how he tackles concepts like evolution or genetics or how we compare how he tackles modern contemporary issues of atheism or how he deals with things like the how is the Sharia to to be really presented in this thing I suppose slightly deals with that I
accept that he has slightly dealt with that and he spoken against terrorism which is great but to be honest with you everybody spoken most people have spoken against terrorism so you know I don't like I said I'm not so wowed but I chef yaku be I have respect for him I I know I did that video against his Sahil Bihari which I was like that's I'm naughty naughty because you know what that was a little he didn't respond by the way I sent out an open invitation to respond to my criticism because he said
something like i've what i've put in circulation is the most authentic copy of Sahil Bihari and I was like ok sorry did you think nobody was gonna question that claim I was like what or think to copy your Sahil Bihari you've just based it on this old Anya which is what every other copies based on so that was that was a little commercial stunt but you see what my prop my thing is this easy you know with
my friends my students my whatever you want to call them people who like me admire me I like to keep it real I like people to you know they pick me up on stuff you know they will disagree with me you know like I'm on line they all kind of banter with my lads they disagree with me on several things not all of them some of them critically like they will not agree with stuff and not out of spite or something like that but you know and what but that's good let it be because it makes me sometimes
revisit things and I'm glad that I've got friends and students who are like that you know they're not just people who are like that you know trying to worship me or trying to kind of because then I would just end up becoming a [ __ ] like because I you know I would have no mirror to really look into I would I would never be able to take criticism because you know if the first time I get critiqued it would be like a shark I'll be like how dare you criticize me but when you're getting criticized and on that note actually that reminds me I'd
like to to say that right that I would like to say that you know I I spoke recently a few weeks back I spoke on consciousness and I ended up speaking on things like horoscopes and stuff like this and I'd like to actually just say a few words on these that following that I you see this is it like on the thing I said that I said that look you know it's intriguing that the Chinese kind of that people are born in that let's say
it's a particular animal they say of this year and the characteristics they seem above probability when you look at the characteristics and I said well that's intriguing and I said sometimes you see star signs even though horoscopes and how they predict things I did say that look I don't believe in any of that but I said I find it intriguing that the characteristics of that they define let's say Capricorn or Aquarius or these people with us are above probability and and I was just theorizing and I said well you know if the roar is something out there and we kind of tap into it could it be that when we're born if it's in the cosmos
that the part of the cosmos nearest to the globe impacts the earth in some way as a theory I said this and I I want to make an amendment I stand corrected that look I want to be very clear you see I I said that on a discussion and these are thoughts you see these are look we are human beings and we think you know I think about I thought that that's interesting it seems to be above probability how could you theorize this and then this is a prime example on the group in also some of their friends and students you know this this war and they're kind of critiquing my thing
criticizing it and you know saying we're really cute and obviously we've got a bad turn and so what it did is it made me kind of go away and I've read up so much research I've read up several scientific papers studies that had been carried out on each study involving between two to three thousand participants there was one study with four thousand participants where they looked at things like horoscopes and different things and although they did find what I said that they found above probability but they found the
alternative they found also the opposite above probability which then canceled out the first reason finding and so when I read that I was kind of like you know stand corrected that there is no theory in and it's actually just utter utter nonsense in that way I mean I said before I felt that the horoscopes in and of themselves were nonsense but I felt that these things were above probability and when I read into the scientific papers on it I found that they were above probability but the opposite was also above probability and and they by
canceling each other out so I did I said on that group as well that I stand corrected you know and I want to amend that I want to be very clear on that that these things are nothing but superstition and and really if Islam came with anything it came to eradicate superstition so you know and it's okay sometimes to have thoughts to kind of entertain them and that is part of our journey in learning you know we we dis we think about things we entertained them and then we read up and then we continue our kind of rigorous research and development and sometimes we will
not find anything there so we'll we'll kind of leave it and move on but yeah so all right all right easy you do all right so right so somebody has asked quite a few times right somebody here said he's a fake Imam can you send that person to timeout timeout right so
somebody saying about Islam being uniform and somebody here with a Chinese name ah coronavirus this is me shwarma right so what do you think of the idea of nikka or fee zebra Raja has asked an interesting question could you find out the profits blood group type I don't know if that's possible actually I honestly I don't
know I I don't know whether because don't blood groups don't I don't think they carry through the way you know the way the kind of y chromosome will carry through or the mitochondrial DNA will carry through I don't think the blood types carry through I think people kind of get diluted quite a bit but I you know I'm not really expansively studied blood type so I'm not really sure about that but it's interesting if blood types carry through I know they carry through from parent to child but because both parents are different and they're
influencing I'm assuming the children on their blood groups somebody said racist racist Chinese right but I gotta say is it just me or did the Chinese e-everything [Laughter] [Music] I love China jungle honestly I wish I
could really at once I kind of mastered the Spanish to expert level I gotta go back to John when insha'Allah I mean he's having a diet coke break I'd mean done this test where are you what is going on what is going on somebody said oh they like in the hair of rice somebody said hey at apostate prophet asked chef yaku Beale all I don't know what should I ask him what did you tell
your stylist I just said you know just I was like yeah you know we need to up the game a bit need to keep ahead currently people predict our next move have to be unpredictable right so yeah somebody said the zodiac traits are nothing more than superstitious fair enough fair enough yeah I was just saying that look I said certain things and after looking at the research I kind of recant that and I just wanted to say that because I said the first thing publicly I want to say this and I feel that there's no you know harming people or entertaining new ideas looking into the research and then you
know if they if they don't carry strength leave them so yeah mostly let me know the answer I'd mean is slacking wake up I'd mean what is going on what's the jealous wife hadith true ninja says jealous wife hadith which is the jealous wife or the I don't know jealous wife right so what is chard masses Mufti do the carpets match the
dress I'll have to check let me just check check right here bubbly isn't that like a worst nightmare sometimes to think yeah what if we out of our mind in your life why would we be out of our mind do you think if we dug up the
Prophet Muhammad's dead body what would it be like do you think it would be consumed by insects or some interesting question you see the question is that there's a hadith that the earth does not consume the prophets is this hadith literal I think that there's two ways of understanding that hadith one is in the literal sense as many Muslims do but I believe you don't have to understand it literally that the other understanding is equally valid and what that means is
that the prophets efforts do not go to waste that the way because you know when we say oh like you know Mickey car games Korea you know like the person was just eaten up by the soil Isaac as in he was just just ruined and destroyed and and that's it there's nothing left of the person and I think personally perhaps the Prophet meant it more like that that you know that this that the UM BR even those who suffered that the bodies were
not consumed by the soil that it meant that the efforts even if you know you look at Zachariah or you look at you know some of these prophets and the struggles they had or John the Baptist and you know if yeah yeah and you might think well you know was it successful that it still was even if they struggled that's that's what I'm more in line with that what's the definitely the real apostate
I've missed some of these high result on this is not a place for your Slama phobic propaganda oh is that apostate prophet realize apostate prophet was was on here could a specimen be taken from his dead body or the soul from or the soil from his grave to do a lab test to find out the blood group type as ever no I mean the blood would have long you know they would not be there you
wouldn't find blood in bodies after a certain period of time what you're talking about is more the ancestral kind of lineage of me of you know doing research tracking the Arab haplotype and then I believe the Arab haplotype is is it j-1 and then you'd be looking at the sub kind of groups and the subclades and util to see you kind of have to do a certain amount of research to track it down to let's say Koresh I believe it is possible to track
the profits kind of kind of genetic haplogroup and see who's related like that but I don't think blood types would be that easily but once again I'll have to look into this but I don't think that's how blood types are that easily kind of detectable when its ancestral because they could be mixed quite a bit along the way right is it a bad trait for wives is it a true hadith it's a bad trait well I I don't understand the question where was the Prophet born the Prophet
was born in in Makkah now it's a party of Raza people what's going on why am i blocked from YouTube Siraj saying why am i blocked from YouTube ah I don't know because oh you mean like putting time out I don't know well the admin is right they right so life after death by freezing them that's
an interesting question you see Stephen Fry Stephen Fry's a legend I love Stephen Fry not in that sense but I love his mind I love his some some of his discussions there amazing amazing and I think people get freaked out because these people are atheists but I I don't think you should be freaked out I think it's a timoni to human talent is it because I think in many ways mine has been
destined to kind of become homo Deus you know the leap from Homo Sapien to homo taya's I think don't you think in some ways like if you read the Quran that alized almost God is kind of laying it Illustrated that this is what will happen that human beings will rise like even the story with Adam like some verses it's almost like you know you don't know what's yet to come with this you know in son is there something else
just look what humans have done we we've got to it's amazing isn't it it's just like wow and you think of you know when you think about it us and other mammals and look what we've done how we're farming the cosmos the quantum world bloody oh my god it's it's honestly it's just wow and this is buddy could be cheesy you know it's so I I'm just so wowed by the human phenomenon and and I think in some ways the Quran kind of
predicts that that you know that in San will do that it's almost his his kind of doomed destiny to become a God not not a God like God God with a capital G but kind of like like almost like the the mythical gods of the Greek gods and you know these kind of powerful beings on that walk the earth these kind of Titans and I don't know I feel we're borderline kind of they you know the the knowledge we carry with us transport the way
things already working it's a man I mean these things if you haven't read the book Amadeus or sapiens I do recommend you write soul right what is somebody said Saroj Huck all right he's being blocked out why am i blocked from YouTube what have I done what's like done did sob sob body body body body that's a famous dialogue from a Bollywood movie that I just he says I
keep getting a date after a date in court in south named Milton south what I don't get is justice I just get another date all right so let's take em hmm how did the prophets wedding look like no I mean what I don't know what you you see these phenomena of events were much more natural than you would anticipate so on many occasions the Prophet got married
or companions got married and other people didn't know until they told them so they just said you know this is you know that oh I got married so for example this is the story and tell me the way you know the Arabs had this custom would they would put a bid oh you know actually Indians and Pakistanis do it as well I don't know if Arabs do it but they put a bit of color like a bit of yellow or a bit of on the on the groom when the nikah is done and so there's a similar incident I believe it's up to Rachmaninoff I think who gets married but in the hadith here the companion comes and he and the prophecy
so what's this color that I see this on you this kind of stain and he says oh I just got married and the first is all really oh great that's great this is you know congratulate why do you give a walima give a little feast you see what's interesting is what the Prophet didn't say is ah you didn't invite me oh you know they know you know people have this thing that oh you know they think everything's about so that's something that's a lesson in that heavy the other thing is that it goes to show that you see think about it these people lived with the Prophet and they were getting married and they didn't
invite the Prophet because to them it was just a very natural thing right so somebody is asked can you please answer my question Sarah has asked the question but I don't know what the question is here comes the fear on Mufti 2020 I've long had the fear of man I've had so much the Creed
what if somebody's asking maillot cell mouse oh my love it doesn't have a kind of mean in like as bad salt but the what are my opinions on java the homily I love my java the comedy sob I have nothing but love and admiration for Allah massa
right so somebody meanwhile the guy with the Chinese font has said you were so engrossed in ching chong in me no you you you you is blind no you is deaf me is blind means you have to play the Jackie Chan clip over here right what do I think of a roofie nikka consent is just getting consent before sexual
activities you know what gamma which is bad do you think it has a link with the Sanskrit comma love [Music] this one is for the philologists they could be you know from the the famous Kama Sutra the sacred teachings
right so well what do we think about [Music] nikka or fee you see look nikka or fee is when a person is having a they're having a mare it depends you see you're having new kind of legitimizing a relationship without any official registration which I I think if that's what you mean by it I don't have a problem with that in fact to be honest with you I'm not necessarily so fond of registrations people be like what the
hell what the hell did he just say they you see because I I don't know because I just feel that you see kind of marriage registrations are just such a headache I just feel I don't know like I feel that if you want to leave a relationship it takes like two years to leave it and can you imagine that kind of hostility during those two years that would just be a nightmare it'd be like you know just I mean I've not been through that I'm just by curiously living these
nightmares Mark Twain said he said I've been through some he said I've been through all of the quote that he said I've been through some very difficult times in my life some of which actually happened because the thing is that a lot of what we worry about sometimes or people preoccupy their thoughts we'd never really happens you know it's just
in our in our thoughts but yeah so anyway know that I've been thinking about this I'm just saying I'm just saying I've obviously I like I used to do a lot of counseling before and I used to do different things and the amount of things you see out there and I just feel mmm not a big fun that's all yeah but I'm still that said look I get the fact if a person wants registration and they should just be clear that look we want registration that's how this is gonna go down fine take it leave it there you go so that's that so I'm not kind of saying
that you shouldn't I'm just saying these are my thoughts on it you know I'm allowed to have an opinion come on saying a Nazi state right so right mostly refute uniform beliefs which are promoted by multi minke I'm not here to refute multi mink but I'm not sure what uniform beliefs means what do we mean by uniform beliefs like do we mean everybody just have one belief in Islam see that's never gonna happen
people you see in Islam we need unity not uniformity we don't need to be insecure it's okay like you can believe something different so what like I mean why why does it bother me like I mean like I mean I get the fact I could be passionate about my belief and I want you to kind of believe how I could I get that but why am I so obsessed if you don't that's just an insecurity like so and Muslims are not going to believe identically for God's sake I mean even
if there were ten Muslims we would disagree but so what do you think if there's almost two billion so yeah so now somebody said look no registration cheap and cheerful right I want to add a rather to what I said about the the marriages you see I I'm not fond of these kind of secret kind of marriages like that in
which especially people use it to kind of just do over the women and kind of take advantage of of their situation so I I do believe clearly if a couple you know like each other and they want to be in a relationship I do believe it's nobody else's business okay but we somebody kind of pulls one over the other I'm just kind of dupes her into kind of some promise of a long relationship and then thinks I know I'm gonna do this undercover one which I'm gonna just finish just like this and I
think that is wrong and it is cruel okay I think in that case you should just be clear that look we're not gonna have a relationship like that I'm gonna this is all I can offer this is all I can do in that case I believe because I don't believe motorized haram just like some of the my lackeys like I'm not sure and you know nowadays the contemporary pros are often other people didn't believe is Haram I would say in that case just do motor you know if you are so concerned about having just a Myka but don't decieve because to me the deception is
greater than Xena in and of itself because you see with that deception what you're doing is you're breaking a person's trust and it's not just her trust you're breaking you're breaking her kind of hope in relationships because what will happen is that woman will just become kind of like a scarred individual that will no longer be able to trust future relationships and always maybe maybe have trust issues and and and go what like this becomes a lifelong
scarring so so in that case I would actually feel that the harm that is done in that is greater than the harm of Xena like it's not like so I'm not I is not Xena anyway it's it's an actually you know it's considered okay by so many Islamic scholars but I'm not saying usually you need to do motor but I'm war I'm trying to say is you should just if that's the case you should just man up and just say as it is you know don't like don't deceive people so I just want to be clear on that because I feel I feel that that's an issue sometimes cool let's take some other question Salam
from Australia are ah people I've got actually a masala I want to share with you guys as part of tonight's I'm still researching this but I thought I'd share with you see this is to do with Jesus ELISA Lam and the Last Supper and what got me thinking about this was a discussion I was having with Australia scene whose he comes online quite a bit as well actually who's involved in a lot of the Rokia kind of expose days and and
research and we had this discussion one
mental mental yeah I do you oh why is that any better is that is
that clear now or is that you sound like a rickshaw you know I is that better let me see Jesus didn't like where this was going so he meant not working so okay somebody said perfect somebody said good okay I'm taking it as that's better now so as I was saying I've been thinking about this and I feel more and more that the matter Surat al-ma'idah which is speaking not of the table but of the
feast is referring to the Last Supper of Jesus you see because the Last Supper of Jesus was the Passover I was the Posada now which is a kind of a commemorative I mean it's not a feast but it's meant to be a kind of commemorative feast if your meal which has a lot of symbolic rituals to do with the Israelites escaping you know from the Pharaoh and the whole thing so they eat the unleavened bread and they go through different things now
right okay I'm just gonna I'm gonna come to that question all right so the now I've been thinking about this and when you think about it the the how are you in the disciples say that is it possible that you Lord that he sends a feast now people have understood this to be an actual like he sends it down from the sky but was that what they meant or did they mean the ruling fool because you see the the Passover meal wasn't really
a feast like they didn't go all out and love the food and do things like that necessarily it was very ritualistic and they say Takuma either and this the Passover in Arabic is called either oficer yeah now they say takuna Eden Leah will inna allaha Rina what ayat a mink and a sign from you now I feel that because Jesus was changing many of the Israelite kind of laws the Jewish laws they were
asking him that look can you can we have a feast to remember for all times and they were more perhaps interested in food and that this could be like you know hailed is one of the greatest feasts that we have had but what Jesus gave them was more symbolic and it was more like an ayah like he obviously the unleavened bread and and he said this is my body and and this is obviously my blood and and what he gave them was a
sign and that one of them Judas Iscariot will betray him and telling them that one of you will betray me so I've just been looking into this more and more and this thing about ünzile Elena that sin down does this mean actually descenders in sin down Oh as a law says that you know ya bani adam' that we and zelner alaikum Lieberson that we sent down for you clothing but this didn't mean we sent down actual clothes that clothes
came down from the sky and they were came ready-made and we just popped them on it meant i sent down for you the guidance to take and the knowledge to take clothing or the ruling to take clothing and or the know-how that's what it means and when allah says and zelon al-hadid i sent down iron now one could argue with the formation of the earth it came down but here as in for you to been from it so Angelina doesn't always mean in the sense that it's physically coming down okay when they say send down this
Marie de anima either is a a kind of table but it's more the food on it okay this is the matter so I do feel more and more that the Last Supper was the my either but maybe because previous Muslims weren't that I mean maybe they were familiar with the story or perhaps they weren't with the Last Supper that much that it seems to be completely out of our narrations worth maybe it wasn't it was actually this verse of the Quran may have been indicating or referring a
kind of like an and in just inferential data but it's kind of there's something there about the Last Supper cool right ziba Raja has asked a question how is so fun is getting blocked yeah Tony admins up but yeah go heresy is very well behaved he's not like you know troll or anything but say bah had asked a question she said all these questions wrong or
too personal to ask a woman when dating for marriage last time you had sex you know the narration right I've just taken I've just didn't whistle from me right now [Music] you know just oh the last time in this hour the last time in this day the last time in this right so what what's number
of partners Chah what's the body count three digits four digits yeah three digits can eat you don't bother [ __ ] thing food what kind of expertise level what level have you ad unlocked what else civil or fee mata colorcast country Dean of expels zipper gee I think you see the problem is I you know personally feel
you see I think person a person can ask whatever they want there's no prohibition in Islam in what you want to ask someone but some common sense would say that I would say generally in my experience of people I have found most people not to take well to the answers of these things I wouldn't personally advise that one goes into these things this is just my experience you see personally it wouldn't bother me as a
person I'm not first about like these things don't bother me I'm just saying in fact we're having a discussion a couple of days ago about something like this and you see these things to me as a person no both but I know so so many people I would say in fact I would feel the majority of the people become so disturbed like if they know that this especially when it's a man towards a woman so as in if they found out the woman had had you know a bunch of partners they've become really insecure and I think that's what it is it's
insecurity and they you know they it will ruin that relationship this is in my experience that most people are not mature enough to handle it like it doesn't matter how mature they think they are most people are not so I would just not go into that okay I would say that I would advise and this is not like I'm not giving Islamic at why I'm just giving from my experience of having you know dealt with so many people's relationships that I would say that don't ask about these
kind of things and don't if asked it's better to say that look these things are in the past yeah I mean you can say yeah look I've been in private I've been in relationships you know of course I'm not you know somebody that's never been in a relationship but I'm interested in a relationship now and this is what's going on that's what I would say because and then the air of suspicion you know the whole thing and then on the wedding night [Laughter] he's like a complete he's like no idea
what's going on and she's like an expert level I think I've told you the story before haven't I this since it's past midnight and it's live and unrestricted so the story I've said it before I'll share it again what the hell so there's this guy and he wanted to get married but he's completely inexperienced so they say to him that don't worry you know we'll so yeah I will hook you up with someone so they find this girl but the thing is she she
had she used to be like in this story one of the biggest kind of the top scale kind of prostitutes there were so she was on an epic of a biblical proportion you know i from the [ __ ] of Babylon she was like rivaling them so she says that look you know what it is I wanna I want to go straight I want to stop all of these so so they say well this is perfect timing we're gonna you know this a guy is vert is a simpleton but you know he'll be great why do you just get married to him
so they say all right let's set this up so they tell her oh but you know what you got to act like you're a virgin but he wouldn't know because he's never he's a virgin himself and completely inexperienced so so she says he all right cool so they say you know what you gotta kind of act all shy and do all the out so so they say all right cool so now the guys all prepped and they get married and it's the wedding night so you know they they have the little kind of discussion and they want to be intimate so the guys
obviously the first time so they karate and you know they disrobe they choose to one disrobes as they begin the act of intimacy the guy kind of he kind of he thrusts shall we say and as he thrusts she screams and he screams so they ask so he asks her that why did you scream
and she says well what it is is that you know I'm obviously I'm I'm a virgin it's my first time and you know oh it's it's natural so he goes okay oh yeah of course so then she goes oh yeah but why did you scream and he says no you know it's my first time and i kind of obviously I'd entered and as I thrust he that's like I know put my back into it he says my testes kind of went in as
well so that's humor people you might but I think these kind of questions are very immature too to ask people for relationships people can ask whatever they want it's not necessarily Haram but I think it's it's not wise at all all right let's take some of the questions people Passover meal is a made-up story we should not
believe it happened okay right fine don't know why you'd feel weight did Jesus give them alcohol why not G alcohol wasn't harmful for you know for Jesus or his companions alcohol is not harmful Christians or why would we think alcohol has always been Haram it has not this is my blood is pagan culture okay sure sure it could be it could be I was just
saying that all right Oh mal Oh Sal gave a good he added to that one's el malecon - oh my if the money it's as virgin yeah of course from the from the payers of animals or losses we sent down but it doesn't mean we sent down like that meaning that the diversity has manifested through us allowing diversity
all right all right okay so what is going on more knowledge and safe the ruling had changed yes alcohol is and I'll tell you something interesting let me share something with you you know even are sure the great who I have each other through share boobs are that I was speaking of the great legend of the 20th century and he was called the shekel Islam of the river he his stuff series in 30 volumes he was the Grand Mufti of the Maliki the Scheffel Islam in Tunis now he writes in stuffs here that if a
person for example the appearance were Christians and they would part of the regular spending was on or part of their diet they depended on was alcohol like it was a necessary part I'm not saying they were alcoholic necessarily but they it was a stipulated part of the diet that they would always bring part of their shopping he said that it would be an obligation for as it is for a child to when they mature when they adults to support the appearance if in all kinds
of support physical moral financial but what he says is that if part of that was that they needed alcohol he has it's a duty on the child man or woman to provide the money to buy alcohol you see and that is the [ __ ] Islam people yeah many you know people blame me don't shoot the messenger that was the shell Islam of the twentieth century even harsher so it's
just that we've got we're so sensitive that we've got this kind of mixed up why wasn't alcohol Haram because it wasn't her alcohols not always been her why was the Prophet called Messiah Messiah means The Anointed One and it's to do with really I believe is to do with John the Baptist who would kind of anoint people he would baptize them with water and and as they would anoint they
hear that they became known as being kind of baptized by him and Jesus obviously is baptized by John the Baptist and has a very profound like in strong relationship with John the Baptist we said now yeah yeah Ali Saleh so it's from here from being anointed that he becomes known as The Anointed One the one who's kind of anointed with generally was water but they may have used some kind of olive oil and things like this as well while standing but that's where it comes from
okay the Messiah to kind of do Messiah right so what questions are going on do you think the theory of Roger Penrose is theory of cyclic universe I have to read more into that I've got some of these books I think you know Sir Roger Penrose is a genius honestly Wow it's a shame really that we as Muslims don't really benefit from these people like what have you ever heard of Muslim ever inviting
people like Sir Roger Penrose even on social activism do muslims invite people like no i'm Chomsky i mean we don't you know we seem to be so insular like if they're not muslim like we don't seem to want anything to do with them and that is such a loss i mean these people are legends I love what his theory on you know the whole how consciousness is most likely at a quantum level it's really
resonates with me all right so what is going I'm a Sunni Muslim who decided to follow the Hanafi method well that's fine that's good there's nothing wrong with that Mao made me a follower of the Maliki method the Maliki method is awesome does rock I gotta say right froggy froggy err Harris G cuz there are n Aditya Harris is cool don't block him
no no kind of put him in timeout or anything right [Music] right so right what's Birmingham like to live in I don't you see because to me it's a nice place you know I sometimes I read about sometimes the kind of crime that's been going on and stuff like this and you don't see I don't see it but I read about it and obviously it's sad too to read about stuff like that it's becoming you know once Birmingham I remember reading maybe about a decade ago or something like that maybe about dozen
years ago something that it was one of the friendliest places in the UK one of the friendly cities sorry in the UK I don't know I mean I still feel it's friendly but I it is sad to read about the amount of kind of crime that you read about the the kind of drug thing drugs just ruin lives honestly they ruin the drug culture this is why I actually support that the government ought to legalize things like weed and because I feel that they should just people who want it they should just be able to get
it you understand avoid this kind of drug-dealing culture because it's just ruin so many lives right awry is is saying I'm out peace man peace people let's when is the next calm safe atop this person's name user name is the mother you know I watch this clip of some American lady and I don't know if you guys have seen it it was viral but she's swearing in it she's saying like
mother but the way she says it with so much you mother the way she's in some supermarket and she's and she's trying to preach about Jesus she say you need to accept Jesus Christ you bother you accuse her she's telling this other guy he's just shopping and you know do you mind I think she just flipped it's like some kind of schizophrenia act like she she goes oh and he goes to a look don't you think you're sinning like because she says to him but you know you're gonna go to hell for your sins and he says don't you
think you're sinning you know you're swearing and all this and she goes you don't you accuse are you brethren you accuse her oh it's hilarious man God I mean that clip is I mean I think she's mentally she's clearly mentally unstable the funny thing is she's trying to preach about God see this is the problem this is why people then attack religion as a
whole even though to be fair it's not religions fault because these people have mental health issues but then they for some reason get drawn people with mental health issues can get drawn to a religion maybe because it offers them absolutes and things like this I don't know that would make an interesting study why are people that are sometimes quite neurotic and quite mentally unstable easily drawn towards religion yeah she was a complete nutcase chef did you see my question true ninja no I didn't I believe what made you choose
the Maliki method as I said before the Maliki method chose me people Allah School of Madinah I honestly I found it to be a school that is one built with the understanding of ease that the beam complements your life it doesn't kind of impede it and that to me was that is how I understand the Deen should we make differences between the Prophet say one is better than the other I mean you see there is a hadith with the Prophet said you know lots of the
loonie Allah unison no matter that you know don't say I'm better than Jonah you know Eunice yep no matter and don't say you know I'm better than so-and-so and and the Prophet said you know in the afterlife we'll see Moses will be there when nobody would any praises Moses Ali Salim now I think you see I think and then there are some where the Prophet praises some of the prophets you know when somebody says to the Prophet oh you're Kareem Abdul Kareem you know a generous put like an amazing person son
of an amazing person and he says the use of even a Jakub nice hug that's a Kareem even academia marketing you know giving him an elevated mom and then some of the prophets have been you know like the verse of the Quran till caba daba daba you see so Allah has obviously there seems to be some who are greater than others so I think in some ways it can be done if it's highlighting certain merits but it shouldn't be done in a degrading manner to kind of like put down prophets
that's all right what is going on what's happening with me Facebook sent there are the questions somebody's asking if alcohol wasn't Haram in Jesus's time why is it Haram now I suppose it's a different shot he isin it somebody so desperately asking is it permissible to have a girlfriend like he's gonna like he's gonna really listen to me anyway you know I'll just cancel that I'll just go into those DMS
and delete them because mama theable late said so since when do I will this kind of power Kulu whom in rasoolullah Himmel to see me perform in El Barrio Russia minute
hmm right so what is going on what is going on your mom and sisters are your friends huh your mom and sisters are your friends okay are we playing well I need to know the rules of the game right so Mufti someone asked a few times about Salah being based on Zoroastrian ISM mostly you're a breath of fresh air
thanks for being shukran shukran Ania shukran shukran geo geo you know may Allah keep you smiling right so that's right coming to this question Beach price has asked mufti abou alpha hi just gassing me for no reason right so a you to be somebody asked is salah based on Zoroastrianism looks a lot isn't based on no sorry let me get this right salah is how we have it today
that's the most important thing we did it come from do you think salah was invented by the prophet a tizzy of course it wasn't the people of Arabia were already offering Salah they used to already pray you know what do you think how do you think like in Bihari there's a hadith where it mentions that the Prophet was praying and they came and threw entrails the the camel entrails on his back and fatima comes and removes them now do you think they didn't know what he was doing like they've never
seen a SuJu than a ruku they were like what is this person doing it's like imagine imagine nobody had prayed in I don't know in let's say Switzerland on nobody they'd never seen a Muslim in their life never seen Salah and all of a sudden all of a sudden some guy comes and he starts coming like this and he goes Allahu Akbar like you'd be weird like what is this person doing they wouldn't know what he's doing they think it's some kind of ritual but they wouldn't understand it the four of Quraish weren't reacting
like that to the prophets prayer they knew that he was praying they knew hit the prayers like it wasn't so the people already prayed the difference is that yes the Salah was slightly modified over time like they changed some variations like maybe the Salaam was kind of varied maybe they added a certain recitation they did certain things but they did know that they were praying though there was a time when they could talk during Salah but then they kind of stopped that so there were certain modifications that were made now we did the Arabs pick up the salah from do you think they could
have picked it up from the restraint as well or have had it influenced by Zoroastrians it's very likely there's nothing wrong with this because by the time it's reached us it is now a it is now a Salah it is an Islamic Salah it's it it's kind of evolutionary origin is not of a huge concern at this stage okay so right now all right so G what is going on can you recall your
discussion with no monolith on about the idea period and women degree the eye on conditions mentioned and maybe play the clip ok the clip I think would be too long to play right now over here I've got a recorded discussion where I'm speaking with nominally hon I think it's about half an hour or something but I do discuss the these things separately as well on clips you see the inter period I've highlighted that the iddah period according to the scholars is generally either one menstrual cycle or three menstrual
cycles now yes it is true that it is to do with pregnancy but I have said that I do believe there's other wisdoms and part of the wisdoms is almost like a kind of social grace period in which you see it allows people to kind of get over things because let's say let's say you had a divorce today because let's go by the common world cultures because Islam is for every way it's not just for I don't know Amsterdam or New York or Paris or London it's so it's for
everywhere rural villages you know rural parts of the world countryside all kinds of people Bedouin nomads very kind of also rougher kind of people and even in cities urban folk you see let's say a relationship ended today let's just say and the woman tomorrow so ended tonight somebody finds out proposed this to the guy to the girl to the guy alright fair enough 2020 why not right so propose this to
the girl tomorrow she accepts it the guy says you know what actually I want to get this over and done with ASAP how about we get married in the evening now can you just imagine the social unease that that would create even though they well within their right one could argue to do that but you know what would happen in a lot of cultures people will say oh the only reason we broke up was because you were having an affair with him anyway and how long was that going on during our relation
ship and and even if it wasn't going on but people they just don't accept these things even in these societies even in you know very liberal Western developed humanistic societies have you seen that you just have to see online how people take so harshly to relationships breaking down they do things like just the other day I was watching something on Instagram a clip where the guy had smashed the woman's car up smashed all the windows damaged her card and all of this because they broke up and vice versa I've seen where women have kind of
like eclipses on on Instagram or things where they've kind of graffiti the car and and people don't take kindly to it because in you see when a relationship breaks down what's happening at a subconscious level you have to understand these on the recipients end so let's say a person says let's say let's say you're saying you know what it's not you it's me it's not you it's me it's me you know we I'm not right for this relationship we need to call this we need to call it quits let's go our own way now you may say something really nice like you may say something like
look I've realized this is bringing the worst out of us and you know we're better off without each other now what the other person subconsciously is also receiving is is rejection you see they're not just it's not just that you are saying let's in the relationship you are rejecting them you're saying I no longer accept you as a valid candidate or a valid person to have a relationship with you know the person may not be saying that but subconsciously the message of rejection is being received
and that is difficult regardless where people are you know the ego that people have they suffer the rejection is really difficult to handle and so the iddah serves a purpose like let there be a little grace period like it much better at a social cohesion and they may be pregnancies as well you know which can also and these are the wisdoms as well and the woman often took maintenance and things like this in the past and and sometimes it was a grace period which allowed to make amends because sometimes people felt you know what actually over these past two months
you know I've thought and often have you noticed that the the it actually staple it actually guides that the woman should do the ADA in the man's house you know what's gonna happen what may happen they're like it's been two months the guys like wakes up all of a certain testosterone is through the roof he's like I wake up on my deputies awake before me he's just making sure holding
of the fort and since Babu is deafened monomial doesn't listen to anyone so you see sometimes people they just make amends with their relationships they think you know what actually you know what we actually had an okay relationship and so I think and it doesn't have to be that but I'm just saying that this there are sometimes there are sometimes certain wisdoms to a
grace period okay and by the way what I didn't mean by that is the guy is forcing himself on the woman I didn't mean that what I meant is maybe and because when a woman stays in either in the man's house technically she doesn't have to do a job or anything and it's still and it may be a root chest it may not be but I'm just saying that it may be something to reconcile a person may to be fair look I know look many women were equal but our brains and like our minds work differently
and men are very very visual when it comes to especially intimacy and sexual aspects now I'm not saying women ain't visual but men generally have you know a more significant part of the brain dedicated to just the sexual why do you think that that's all they think about every 11 seconds it's we cursed goddamnit right so it could be that sometimes you have a break from someone and then you see them and you think oh wow
actually actually wow I never realized how beautiful she looks why was I going ahead with this divorce god dammit nobody has to be all about beauty it could be about oh wow I never realized he had such an amazing inner self why is that funny why are you laughing anybody laughing you misogynist soon you you catch him
video so there are wisdoms to these things okay but what I did mention which with start nominally han was this thing that look I feel that women you know when they on the menstrual cycle they're not impure okay and I feel that that the fact that they don't pray is just a dispensation from God it's not a kind of sign of impurity okay and I'm very clear about that okay I disagree with things like you know people saying that women
become impure that they they kind of like do it to you all of a sudden or something like this that's not true that yes Allah has given them a gift that they don't have to pray or fast because obviously they're going through a hormonal a physical imagine blood loss imagine it's like the comedian said but it was true though like imagine blood l-like imagine every month we we discharged blood out of our pee can you just imagine out of our private parts as
men every what hell would imagine I don't think we would recover that would be like would be like people gather round these are my final few moments on earth I thought I'd just let you all know God that so women go through this every you know and and so look it's this is something natural the hadith in
Bukhari says you know that a shaken you know in a locket a bomb in nematic shaken cats about Lowell Abernathy Adam this is something Allah has written through the laws of nature for the daughters of Eve so it's nothing that's you know kind of like ugly nut sense I mean I understand that I'm not trying to say we can whether you find it physically or I don't mean in that sense but it's nothing impure as in like oh this person his woman can't go into a mosque now this woman cannot touch a Quran this is why mom Malik said that
the woman on when he was asked about the menses he said she can read the Quran she can touch the whole and yes although back then they did advise about refraining from the Masjid but that's because back then they didn't have these kind of sanitary you know options and it was more a hygiene issue as opposed to a purity issue so okay so I hope that [Music] somebody said he's high on weed probably high on my own supply I'm just like this
by default honestly I'm like the I mean he figured it out by now I'm just really eccentric but I seriously we would freak out though come on get real guys wouldn't you freak out if Freddie you saw blood coming out of your bra freaked the hell out I mean that would be something you never want to see in your life that's like so that's that's kind of like I'm commending that look wow this is something women put up with so we shouldn't kind of be saying people shouldn't be saying that it's impure that's wrong
cool all right so let's let's move on people let's move on let's move on I'm being bombarded here while your views on Sally oh you know what I haven't answered look at they posted on my they
posted on my post
you know other things they've their relationships oh it's you you I've rise that
any better is that better people yeah I I was just changing I had to reset the thing I have is that better let me just get a confirmation first of all from the people if that's not better I'll do that again mostly it's your phone it's my phone oh is it causing its interference you think that could be an interesting point I've no I'm not thought of that okay it's a good point actually right okay awesome right let me give you guys
some this is my personal thoughts on this you can throw it in the bin I I don't you know I'm not saying it has to be right but my thoughts you know the amount of people I've spoken to whose relationships have been ruined yeah when I've spoken to them they've said that look this happened I looked at this phone I did this ice I spied on this partner whether it was man or woman spied on each other investigated and then it was ruined I would say something that look if let's
say you do value someone in a relationship if you suspect something let's say you suspect something like you think you know what I think something's minha be off here is this person engaging and other just remembered I read something where it said it's the wrong question to ask a man that are you in a relationship because all men would respond with no they said the question
ought to be that you need to ask the man you need to ask a man is there anybody in this world that could be under an assumption that they are in a relationship with you anyway let's get back to the point right so right so right so the thing is that I just saw somebody post soundcheck I hope the sound is fine right now the what I would say is that if you suspect
your partner is up to something ask yourself a simple question say that am I prepared to end this right now let's say it be true am i prepared if your answer is yes then pursue it and investigating okay if your answer is no I don't I'm not really prepared to in this relationship then maybe in a an
indirect way you just bring it up somehow so the other person is a way that something is off that you feel something is off and that they let's say whether they they may not have been having an affair but maybe they were flirting or maybe they were doing something or maybe they weren't or maybe but they can kind of realign themselves okay because without because you know they just the other day I was speaking to this lady and she said to me that oh you know I she her relationship had been
ruined and she said that she had confronted her husband initially dov whatever a while back about this about having an affair or something but she said that you know she said I wish I never did she said to me that oh you know I I said such-and-such to him but I wish I hadn't and he kind of then came clean with it and she said and then the whole thing was ruined but she said I wish I'd kind of just left it now and maybe he would have just stopped it now the interesting you see this just
comes to my point that if you feel that no I am prepared to end it then fine indeed like just investigate because I feel that when you see when when people go digging more often than not they find skeletons okay now I know that's a bad thing to say because in a way it just shows that you know everybody's hiding something well most people are hiding something and they shouldn't be which I kind of agree with in theory but in the real world people are unfortunately by
and large so the question is that but what are they it may not be that serious but it may be it may not be me so I don't know this is what I feel that you know the amount of people I've spoken to I would say that if you're ever find if you find yourself at that crossroad ask yourself am I prepared to end this here and now and if you should should like should the premise be true am I prepared to end it like now and if you say yes I am I'm prepared to do that
then fine but if you feel that no that I would you know I would really like this to work then exposing certain things remember because once you go down a certain Road there is never a coming back a broken mirror is never kind of regains its original I mean you can fix it but it will forever be kind of scarred with with its cracks and that's the nature of these kind of relationships wants you wants people
this is why I said about earlier on when somebody said should you ask people how many people have you slept with and things like this because suspicions later on will kick in like can you imagine like if these people make amends after things like that any time that person is late they will straight away say oh are you were you seeing such-and-such were you going back to you know it's it's forever poison that well is so yeah so I mean I don't I don't know these were just some thoughts I shade them because I I felt that so many people have I've discussed these
things with Mufti Abu layth should be on Paltalk isn't power talk like way out of date right okay [Music] mostly what made you oh what's this about my appearance since 2012 what made you change your appearance since 2012 that lecture isn't
