Oh fry people of in al hamdulillah wa kafa or salat wa salam o allah rasool mustafa ala i read in ladino table all a member who donated or be Arthur Allen Medina dr. firebird a salam ala allah o allah moosa and become more marhaban running light bienvenidos a todos people per her rally-ho sharma deed and as always I got so held up today I thought you know what

2:07

I don't am I even going to be able to make today's episode or what awry but let me just check first and foremost what's going down can we all right let me just do a sound check first and foremost see what's going on with that right of right of rice hell I'm from Toronto all right people so just waiting for this what's this

2:44

mini feed saying I should change my layout you know this is gonna confuse me what's going on people has the sound by the way what's the red mark on your shirt that's not a red mark yeah come mom I see this is it can take these people anyway that's the design that's the design people sound is our rice somebody said sound sound I don't know what that means when did this start this has just started people move this

3:19

up our i wa allakum assalaam Shamas lila ji you doing it you doing it right you're doing it people saying the sound is good it's clear alright that's what I want to hear some watts go wind all right that's Illuminati right I'm Batman you're doing it Zacky ania alaikum as-salaam you doing it you doing it right so Hamas jumping right in with

3:57

a question before we just get to the questions let's as always people let's Walt people are tuning in whilst they're clicking like whilst they're clicking share as they meant to be let's play some poetry for people to do that [Music]

4:37

[Music] all right that's sometimes EEP happy for you right there people an epic contemporary poet right this you know this layout I've I've done Yeats hmm I don't know man I don't know it's it's starting to annoy me right so Shamas Lila if you get close if

5:16

the closer you get to Allah the harder he tests you how are you supposed to understand these I'm not so sure that is necessarily accurate people say that you know that all the closer you are to God the more he tests you I don't think that's necessarily true in that way I feel it's more so in the sense that the test becomes more meaningful for you if that makes sense as opposed to you get the hardest test

5:53

so people have seemed to have given it that spin that oh the more tested you are the closer you are to God and I think they've done that in a in a rewarding way for people who are struggling to feel that well you know this is because I'm close to God but there is no converse judgment from that statement it doesn't work conversely it doesn't mean if you are closer to God he must test you more he did does that make sense so first of all there's no converse judgment from this statement

6:31

that you know those who test who God tests the most are the ones closest to him does not mean he necessarily I understand that his understood his hardship does not mean he puts everybody close to him through hardships so it doesn't work the other way around that if you're close to God you get more hardships the other thing is that what I feel is by tests here it means more about they become more meaningful to you as opposed to the struggle so it's more a qualitative as opposed to a quantitative rather rather right whilst

7:10

you guys are tuning in clicking like licking shear whoa what have I done here let me just see if I can fidget with this thing and fix it up all right how many have I got six do I need six [Music] mmm-hmm what about what about this hmm sorry I'm just taking a little look here what am I missing out

7:50

would your mixer are right okay that is needed you guys are thinking I've lost the plot now this at this stage is too late now you think thinking is too late there's no there's no hope for Mufti well like I can understand that I can understand that okay let's let's take a look quickly come on awright awright arrived on it this way how nice this is really the actually actually I just got

8:27

a better plan people you guys can't see anything what I'm doing so it just sounds like I've completely lost the plot which it makes absolute sense don't worry about it people don't worry about it so right now mm-hmm-hmm why of Rai Rai Rai that's much better so people get this out there spread the love spread it man don't be embarrassed to share it don't feel that your secrets

9:06

gonna be your secrets gonna be busted of Rai we've done it people you see you guys can't tell what I've been doing here but all you need to know is that I've handled it I was just mucking around with the software he I changed the entire layout see that within what like 20 seconds I did that that's what I'm talking about people so now that's a lot better now right let me just bring back my gente right so Syed Ali fair Syed Ali for you doing it you doing it

9:44

so Khalifa says mufti what are your thoughts on dr. Adnan Ibrahim my thoughts on dr. Adnan Ibrahim oh yeah I love dr. Adnan Ibrahim I haven't it's been a little while I haven't watched much of his his things I don't know why that is I mean usually YouTube used to kind of just post them up for me so I said show me but yeah I'm an absolute fan of the Quran on Ibrahim I think he's doing great work in in Europe not quite sure

10:24

where he's based I think is it Netherlands or is he based in but in one of the European countries oh is it no way but yeah but once again somebody who has very similar kind of he's on a very similar wavelength to me in my thinking see how I did that as in he is on the same wavelength as me as opposed to me being now that just happened to come out that way but yeah I'm an absolute I I you know adore him so I hope he's well

11:03

cool YouTube algorithm shows me Mufti RI Mufti you sexy beast Papa he car hi this on this scandal to big you know this on this requires a dead jar with a small D can say Nami needed Giles no problem but there is one the jar with a big deal okay

11:33

[Music] so people was going down what's going down most demand-side yep I much appreciated the super chat episode of Ryder wish Johnson are you doing monkey pal what's going down why the name Abu layth cuz the name is slick you know that

12:12

Muftis number one fan brother I love you yeah Humira Jon I love you too are more me oh there you go well you guys know what's going down let me bring this down I've missed somebody's super chat kappa couple Patel how have you been on for people what salam of T have you been on for people who think oke I haven't actually has a lot of content similar to you interpretation eg

12:52

no I sir second coming I've not heard of that I will try and check it out Eskimo says mostly you need a scandal [Laughter] Sami who nice am who Neha some honey why do I need a scandal this is this is the love I get you see I get people awaiting let me just bring this closer you know I got hold of this check this out people let me forget my coffee can wait sure

13:31

you get this man check this encyclopedia out people can you see it Wow this is the encyclopedia of psychoactive plants ethno pharmacology whoa is doing it is doing it says basically got everything in he ate sister it's the Sahil Bihari of of of plants people but you know what I was reading up about on there was let me show you guys I was reading up about

14:08

this the soma plant this is quite fascinating so this is from from ancient India there was something that they used that they call in the Vedas they call it soma now it's not people you know they're not too sure what the soma is there's different discussions so in in this encyclopedia they discuss it as well and go over the certain theories on it so some people they'd assumed that it

14:44

was a particular plant and and where Terence Mckenna he he feels it was mushrooms there's a huge you know there's a lot of kind of like investigation into what were these what was this particular plant this so mad that what they do know is in the Vedas they speak about in ancient India people would make a drink out of it and they would then you know consume that and then the visions and it also explained some of the things that they write down in the Vedas which are taken literally by some people then but it's these these kind of things they're

15:23

seeing very interesting so it was it DMT that's what some of the people had argued it is DMT some people had argued it was just the kind of magic mushroom drink that was made from that but it's all very fascinating it was considered a sacred drink in ancient Hinduism and they believed that it was the the kind of the counterpart to the Amrit the Amrit which was the the got the drink of the gods in the heavens and its counterpart on earth was this soma a

16:03

very fascinating once again this this whole thing of ancient cultures and how they connected with with nature it's a very fascinating thing I find it fascinating to think Muftis lost the plot nothing new there so what happen / tell you doing it you're doing it right so Pietro the processor has come up straight up with a killing question first of all chakram for the super chat

16:42

let me just bring up the Facebook people as well make sure I can see the the questions and comments right so why did God create us hey I think I think we're gonna need to consume all of the what all of the plants in here to understand that well not necessarily look it is a privilege

17:17

one can say to have been not as I seem to have been some way to have existed don't you think so no matter what people say it is I feel it is a privilege you know to have thought to have conceptualized to have far them to have understood

17:47

to a felt to have you know to have realized the concept of existence so I I feel that when you say why did God create us that is why he created us so we have Irfan not not a person air fun but Martha you know we have what is this realization you know

18:25

law says I created you and I made you so many people later are a fool people say oh this means so you know one another sure it can mean that as well I would say that is the apparent meaning but it is mush stuck it is a derivative of Martha of having the knowledge that awareness and it's more than just elm it's like this awareness but to double what the [ __ ] or that's why we say Allah has a lemn we don't say Allah has Martha okay we can say Mary Fethullah is in our

19:04

matter if of Allah but we don't say Allah yeah if we say Allah yharnam in Arabic because I'm is the definition of Elm is a drakul asiya alayha Pilate ha you know to understand things as they actually are in their reality and Martha is to comprehend things or to realize things but at a de bourree not the [ __ ] Kirino you know after content of the contemplation or reflection oh and God does not reflect over things like that

19:42

he doesn't come to realize things he knows things with certainty so in son this modify something that is specific to in son and I would say that that is exactly why as a losses litora fool that's my thoughts on it Riesling you're doing it with the supercharge are you doing it the subcontinent has produced works of Tufts Eve sir say it ahmed ali abdel karim a three who I often quote that have moved away from the math or based have seared to righy to put a label on

20:22

it that goes beyond the rocky of the classical era or they're parallel works in the Arab world if not why that is a very fascinating question you see so I feel so first of all that have sieves done in in or do during the you know definitely in the 20th century the early 20th century and going right up there's some amazing tough seeds that are done with some very open-minded people I mean

21:01

it's unfathomable how open-minded they were because today when you think of the Indian subcontinent you cannot picture people like that so people like you're saying so sayeth Ahmed you've got people like a llama in Manama D you've got he had a two-seater I think his tough series lost today because people didn't carry him first I know chef Faria Dean Hamidah Dean sorry honey the Dean for aji ah damn there

21:41

goes my throat so Hamidah Dean Farah he he has it have seen which is fascinating but it's from a different angle but then people like Maulana Abdul Karim Allah three and all these kind of be incredibly enlightened us here there are parallels in the Arab world as well but so you've got things like you've got a tough Cyril you know you have al-manar by sheikh rashid river you'll have the you you'll have atari rotten weed by

22:20

the legend the Grand Mufti of the Maliki er my I would say part of my who I traced some of my ijazat through the Maliki dawn of the 20th century chef I'm not sure he stuffs a rotary rotten we're is incredibly enlightened like that there are some but you see even with the or two tough sieves the issue is this that the majority of the clergy are not an enlightened people they not like like I would say

22:57

overwhelmingly not like 99% these people who are enlightened are an extreme minority so what happens is the majority kind of drowned them out and this some that they can't because they too big like even our shul he's just too big to drown out otherwise they don't really like what he says but they can't deny him he's just one of those people that just has gained acceptance everywhere but otherwise like what will happen is the sectarianism just proliferate and it kind of kills

23:35

off anything so today when you think of the subcontinent Indian subcontinent you wouldn't you won't hear of the Mauna ala mataman an Ahmadi nobody would even quote him they won't even you won't even know what his name was so it's only because of a few people having revived his word or when you think of Maulana Abdul Karim la3 the salafiyyah won't really you know they want to claim him I mean they won't sorry claim his Tufts here today even though they probably just leave him there but that's because his tough seal isn't that popular if it was popular they would have huge issues with even

24:14

though he is from that movement so yeah I hope that helps why what is going on s miyagi you do in a Miyagi Salaam of the recommend to me any books on intro to philosophy both Islamic and non-physical ah hey shukran for the super chair much appreciated now you see there's so many right where are my philosophy books right so they must be behind this somewhere right so in English I mean there's many philosophy

24:53

books there was a great book I read once called does the center hold I think that's what it was called but it was done in a in a very kind of a great way he was written you know the way it could it had the equivalent of an entire years almost philosophy course but it was kind of intervene in a way that was fun and had great learning guides and learning tips along the way animations things like this it was it was a fun book to read that stands out for some reason yeah it have a try of that I mean

25:33

there's so many things for I don't know what to say there's a book I've got about something I think it's called is it fifty of the top philosophical works and it's got some reason them I've got one on psychology as well but you could try also learning philosophy through jokes that's a fascinating so this Daniel plane and I've forgotten the co-author with him but they you have a series of books more books but it's learning philosophy through jokes Plato and a platypus walk into a bar Aristotle

26:12

and an aardvark go to Washington you know Heidegger the pearly gates of heaven or something like this but they've got a few of them and they're definitely worth if you're into philosophy teaches it integrates into humor which is great fun the Islamic philosophy honestly that I don't think it's there's being justice done to that because surprisingly Muslims didn't really honor our philosophers so the great philosophers like al-kindi and then

26:49

after him you're gonna have like a hobby Nasser Al Farabi you'll have obviously Rizzoli you see Missouri is known but not so much for his philosophy either more so for his act either and Sewell and that kind of stir Sufism and even though he wasn't a Sufi but he was kind of from the kind of pioneers of modern day or later Sufism but yeah so even a rushed you've

27:25

got right this if you put the problem is that Muslim Muslim scholars did not like the Muslim philosophers so they didn't like people like Farabi Farabi has his own rendition of Plato's Republic called Al Madina tell fabula I do have having here someone but they you see the Muslims didn't like that and because they said that these guys are just speaking ku far and we don't like him even a rooster for example people don't like him for that they just like him for

28:04

the fifty thing be that'll mujtahid but they don't like his philosophical stuff now I say that's a shame it's actually the Europeans and through the Renaissance who then have kept the works of the Muslim philosophers alive so like a burner roosts works even a roost had you know was it embraced by the Europeans for his work because he brings back to life Aristotle as do the the people before him I mean even you know to a great extent when we're gonna look at people like plotinus and Neoplatonism

28:43

these things survived into Europe but through Muslim philosophers like Farabi you know who's who's a loose dad you know I've seen as the the great the great teacher you know the grand teacher and this is because they brought those they didn't they weren't just mere merely translators or transmitters they were commentators they were adding qualitatively to this work so yeah but that but the whole philosophical tradition in Islam Muslims was kind of

29:22

there was a disservice done to it by Muslims unfortunately and it was honored by the European non Muslim so this is why a lot of it today has survived but through them and then later on as some Muslims got impressed they brought it back to life as well so yeah I hope that makes some sense of what is going on people right I've read that arrive we're up to I take it we're up to yep whoa the chat is moving everything is fine you're

30:00

trying my best okay somebody said love you for Allah sake I have a question is it Haram to play with are the question it's gone whoa these are moving so fast today this polish nail polish invalidate let me see if the questions are coming up here

30:27

right Shamas had asked a question which I don't super chatted a question I didn't get round to it thoughts on religions like Baha'i and Sikhism are they not equally as logical as Islam emphasis on religion and science yeah I mean I suppose they I mean I'm not sure what the question exactly is are they not rational they they I'm sure they are rational to a great extent yeah so I'm not sure if

31:04

that's exactly the question right is nail-polish truth seeker sisters nail-polish invalidate the module nail polish does not invalidate the word all people you can just in case some of you one on your weekends right so right the khari sob turns up with his nail polish on right so size matters people when it

31:43

comes to coffee when it comes to coffee but yes so nail polish does not invalidate woudl you can do will do on top of they just wash over it's fine and this is based on a number of things amongst them is that the Sharia simply asks you to deal with the apparent so even in wudu you just wash the apparent so you hence you're not required to wash I mean you can rinse out your mouth but you're not required to rinse out your mouth you're not required to wash inside

32:21

the nose I mean you can do this but it's not a requirement you're not required to wash inside the eyes for example even though some of the Salaf used to wash inside their eyes but you're not required to wash inside the ear because the barton is not a requirement hence even when a person is washing his feet let's say you're not required to wash between the toes it's not a requirement I mean some scholars may say it is but generally it isn't so that's because you're only required to deal

33:00

with the apparent so whatever the apparent is so in that case you know you've you know you're not washing the actual tips you're washing the nail on top and then the nail happens to have polish on it you're washing however is it makes no difference there are also fatah wa of the Salaf including the legend imam malik who speaks of things like the ring and if you're wearing a ring and he says that in certain fatwa that you're not

33:36

required to remove it now where it gets interesting is the questioner asks that what if it's Lydia what if it's really tight and it does not allow water to pass underneath so Imam Malik says so what so this is over something which is not a necessity it's not a requirement wear a ring and you could take it off you know and so the point is if you're not required to remove it for voodoo and that's a ring and it's just jewelry then

34:16

why would you be required to remove nail polish and another important factor is that you know the seller weren't this kind of OCD about stuff this is very much a this is very much a later post Islamic occurrence this whole obsession with you know this obsession with detail where everything becomes fanatically ritualistic this I don't think that's a

34:53

good thing in my you know under standing I don't like that but so people they become obsessed with detail what about this what about that what's this you know oh my god am i mr. spot here have I and people might say yes well this a hadith with the prophesied Adam says whaler Lilla up okay if that hadith be true let's just go with it for now this hadith were a person told a person to wash his feet now you see but that's

35:23

the apparent thing you see now wait ah I don't know what's up with my throat today so right now you see in the Arab climate where were things were there were Sun dust things like this it is apparent when a person has not washed a whole portion that is still let's say of his limb like his hand or his arm his feet that are still covered in dust it

36:02

wasn't you know some people try to say oh he missed a tiny spot or on his feet and the Prophet because the hadith says the prophet saw it from far and he said oh well only last a minute right that old you know that damn nose like a cob is the heel of the foot so all that basically those such shields are damned to the Hellfire that's what it kind of means now you see that's absurd to suggest that the Prophet

36:38

noticed a tiny spot of because you couldn't you can't tell these things these things are not like if a person is washing his hand over there you wouldn't know that oh my god he missed a tiny part over here you wouldn't know this the only way you'd know this for the feet is the person did not really wash his feet and they were covered in dust still so as he's just he's just rinsed his you know rinsed his face and arms and wiped and maybe just kind of on one foot chucked some water but the other four is clean le dusty and the Prophet said that to him that's how that was it wasn't about

37:17

a tiny speck or a dot yeah and then the male Kia have issued Fatah WA the fatwa of Ignat inna I believe on where a woman for example has been cooking and this a small amount like string like let's say small amount of dough that she's been kind of preparing and that still stuck on her hand or hand or arm or something and she doesn't notice she washes it off and but he still let's say there's a small amount still there and then she goes we'll do over it later to realize

37:56

that there was a small amount of dough now she's not required to repeat that they say I mean he says and that's part of the Maliki math help so the point is to a wick beware of this the net thought this kind of like deep fanatic obsession with the Dean cool RI people of Aishah ahmed asks

38:27

sorry this is eerie up Jamal say Achilles heel haha yeah that's what it is really so damn I just forgotten what I should what was your question I think I'm just forgot oh is Islam a way of life right so yeah I mean you see this thing is Islam a way of life I don't know what that really means when people say Islam is a way of life that you see it's mmm

39:07

see it puts up it puts you in a strange position to tackle that question because if you say no you just sound horrible and if you say yes you're just singing along to a tune that doesn't really have any meaning behind it you're just kind of toeing the line because Islam never ever taught that it is a way of life like so the Quran never says Islam is a way of life for example the Prophet never taught Muslims that Islam is a way

39:43

of life I mean one could infer a kind of meaning from different diverse teachings of Islam to say well Islam is about your whole life being in submission to God fine in that sense you could infer this meaning and use it but Islam never really said that about itself so the Quran never teaches you the Prophet never taught you that Islam is a way of life this is a modern statement okay this statement arises in maternity

40:22

probably most likely in the 20th century and it comes in contrast to colonialism and modernity because the colonialist brought with them modernity and muslims tried to counter modernity so not just Muslims Christians as well they tried to counter modernity by you know digging deeper and entrenching themselves in a you know a more far fetching fundamentalism within the religion so

41:00

they started to say things like well you know we don't need them Islam is a way of life anyway we have it all so so I'm not quite sure when people say way of life what they actually mean now something is a way of life as in it deals with matters which are to do with your life is that what it means but then in all honesty most of the matters with the Sharia are just like man-made stuff they're not really and they're stuff that changes so like if you look at all of these I let's say here is a huge fit

41:37

book that you can see now only the first chapter will be dealing with worship and things like that and all the rest are just dealing with transactions buying selling you'll be dealing with things like renting you rent an apartment you you rent this use you kind of hire out land and you make a certain deal was you know Mazzara and all these kind of things and that's gonna be the bulk of all of those volumes now those rulings they never got them from the Quran there's not gonna be in the Quran speaking about oh if you wanna hire out land and if you uh you know you

42:13

you wanna stick a peg into the wall but the neighbor is objecting this Quran isn't gonna speak about stuff like that some of these things you might find some hadith but a lot of it it's just based on Fattah wa just the scholars just gave what was just based on common sense right somebody said you missed oh look at her what the hell am i doing right you missed a super on momentum moment eco people was going can't see it can't see

42:53

it right okay is this the one that's as far back as I can go Kapil said do you believe humans and every creation is used as examples for the future creations Allah emphasizes previous civilizations as example to learn from yeah sure I mean people are always going to be an example for other people who come after them so we're learning so much from World War two history you know from Nazi Germany from this way we're learning about it we're kind of going over it I'm sure people in the future will learn from us think I

43:30

will look at those idiots yeah of course of course so okay I've covered that what's this new Smithsonian says why does Allah give very random and specific guidance on some matters of etiquette I leave the prophet's house but not on everything else I take your shoes off when visiting well shook her on for the super chair my phone Ian I mean that's a a weird question I'm not sure what that that

44:10

means the Arabs never used to take their shoes off when they should go inside the house I don't think they did I mean why would they take their shoes off when they go inside I mean maybe they had a certain room a quarter that they did for that place but I don't think they generally that was a rule that they used to put shoes outside the house and go in I don't think so or not come across it maybe I don't know but why doesn't God say that because that's not the problem and that's just being silly it's not a small matter speaking about etiquettes of causing people inconvenience that's a

44:50

big deal you know how you should take your shoes off is irrelevant you know it's not it doesn't register it's not even a blip on the radar but causing people inconvenience is something significant Mufti you missed a super chat someone asked what do you think of kratom I don't know what crate what do you mean by kratom I'll have to check that up I'm not sure what kratom is what is Creighton this is where I realize I don't know if somebody has made up a

45:28

word just to kind of say hey let's see what Mufti says about this [Laughter] so what is going down people what is going down all right me too you know what today's has been one of those days mm-hmm somebody said Mufti Saab I have an interview in the morning can you make the are for me Creighton from Red Dwarf

46:05

is that who it is Creighton from red dwarf red dwarf was epic if that's what your question is then I think yeah red dwarf I used to love watching red dwarf as a kid I haven't you know maybe I should check out an episode now I don't know whether I'd find it as funny now but yeah it was amazing the end right so what is going down what should we do in

46:39

the ledger hutch random guess alright so now what should a person do in Ville Haeju right so in the ledger is the month of Hajj but there isn't gonna be a Hajj this year there's no problem no freak out a person look you can there's nothing specified like that I think sometimes people should be grateful that

47:18

there's nothing specified it allows people to just be themselves to do what's easy for them you know if you want to give charity give charity if you want to focus on a bit of recitation of the Quran do that if you want to focus on da do that I would feel that this great liberty and blessing in in a lack or in the absence

47:52

of specificity I think because you just have freedoms you if you want to just focus on learning then you focus on learning if you want to focus on there isn't anything specific unless you're going to do Hajj then then there's obviously specific things to do before other people worldwide there's no specificity there is the sacrifice that we do and even that I do feel that it was is the symbolic okay right actually this brings me on to another question I was meant to answer

48:30

and I kind of forgot and that was about what are my thoughts on ibrahim ali salam and and the whole scene of him preparing his son for sacrifice now what is that about and and versatile ah who Lilia beam that when he kind of his setting is kind of preparing the sacrifice now why would

49:06

God ask this why would God ask ibrahim alaih-is-salaam to sacrifice his son now my understanding of this first of all is that God never asked Ibrahim Ali salaam to sacrifice his son that was never a divinely asked and the Quran never states that Allah asked him rather the Quran simply reiterates ibrahim ali salam telling his child now in in the quran it doesn't specify who that child is many muslims felt it was as hot as the jewish people felt Imam Malik

49:45

relatives is half Omer abrakadabra the law and felt it was is half and other people's I didn't say Europe and other people but and many others felt it was a smile it doesn't make a difference I would have personally thought it was the firstborn so the firstborn is his harp generally that's how it's understood some people may choose to differ but since that ibrahim is first son it would make more sense to me that he was the one being understood by ibrahim ali salaam that needed to be sacrificed and what was this all about

50:25

so ibrahim alaih-is-salaam now because he does not have a child he yearns for a child which is perfectly understandable now when he has a son eventually and you can imagine how dear that son is to him now this child has not been able to have a child and now he's had a child and this child is so dear to him now you see Ibrahim aleihsalaam lived in a time when people used to do things as human sacrifices so this was a of it was

51:05

not an uncommon phenomenon people would sacrifice human beings and they would fat sacrifice their own children now ibrahim ali salaam had it would have been natural for him to have an anxiety over his kid especially since he longed for a child and this is it's like how you see for example it's reported by women who are pregnant for example in the late stage of pregnancy they will have nightmares an often nightmares to do with things like losing their child and that's

51:44

because you see when something and that that's obviously a slight approximation of this kind of anxiety and fear but even with other things when you get something that you're so Wow like it's like you wanted it and you finally get it you are overtly like you are so high in you know like you go far and beyond in being protective you're overprotective hyper protective of this thing and and you become very frightened of it getting broken or damaged it could

52:23

and this could be property it could be a thing but it could be people as well I could be a child it could be some person now in this same way ibrahim ali salam has this kind of anxiety over his child now he sees a dream in which because he has this this kind of unmatched love it for himself speaking in his life that this is a newly found unprecedented love that he has for his child he sees in a dream that this is a distraction from

53:02

god and god is saying to him he sees this this is his dream he sees that in order to sorry not that god is saying to him but that in order to prove his worth that he has not abandoned god he needs to sacrifice this thing this child that is the you know at the primary recipient of his love and devotion so he has to sacrifice him because that is taking up it's absorbing

53:40

all his love and he needs to show that he is still committed to God so it's he sees this in a dream now he narrates this dream to his son now it's his son who says that oh you know yeah but if Alma tomorrow this is a divine commandment you do it and you know you will find me patient from the Saba Deen from those who have Saba now Ibrahim Ali Salam gets he is then swayed to believe that right maybe it is because I saw

54:20

this in a dream that in order to prove like because I found myself now becoming so preoccupied with the love of this child I need to sacrifice that because that's the most beloved thing to me to God to show God that I actually love him more I need to prove myself to God and remember this human sacrifice thing existed he was it was not uncommon at all so when Ibrahim Ali Salam is going there and making the preparations with his

54:56

child for the sacrifice here he receives revelation and Allah tells him that look no but this is not right and that there was this a ram that that that is seen they by where he is that sacrificed that then you see sacrifice that as a symbol and let this be a an absolute stop on human sacrifices for timed for you

55:34

know for for infinity to come that human sacrifices are unacceptable they are an abomination and sacrifice if if that's what you want to do then you're going to eat I mean they would eat animals anyway for survival you're going to eat that sacrifice that to God let that be a symbol of your love and sacrifice to Allah and and hence that sacrifice is only symbolic Allah says in the Quran that the meat of these creatures do not

56:09

reach me it is just your taqwa your kind of devotion that counts this the animal you sacrifice doesn't mean per se anything so really this was the moment in which human sacrifices were clearly outlawed I mean that not that they were acceptable before but it was a a point was made about them I'm not trying to say that they were okay before I'm trying to say that a point was made that no Abraham aleihsalaam by action by his actions spoke out against that and

56:48

sacrificed a ram now so and that's the backdrop to that story what I was going to because I had been asked to explain that but I was going to say fast-forwarding to to our day and age we don't need to sacrifice that many animals now I feel that since it's symbolic it could be done as in yes I know it's acceptable one for an entire family but we could expand that even more much larger groups for just just one animal symbolically being sacrificed for that that's what I feel ought to be

57:28

where the people will do that or not I don't know right so let's move on to the next question new smithsonian Sukhram for the super chat why do right why does a lot need us to praise him Allah does not need us to praise him right Coco says Monday Tuesday Happy Days I hope you can answer me someday all right okay

58:04

you some Alex said I'm not Muslim but I like most ear ballades views on Islam shukran shukran check muchas gracias Alex right somebody is every app says that maybe the narrative of Ibraheem was the watershed moment where human sacrifices in Babylon Sumeria was rife I mean they were common they were as in it wasn't uncommon put it like that and this was the moment to

58:43

in a decorative manner make a statement that that these things are an abomination but it seems that what happened is Muslims over time didn't seem to emphasize that pie anymore they just carried on about the story and the sacrifice but they didn't you know it's not that the other part maybe he's unknown maybe people know that yeah that they were the sacrifices and stuff and but they seem to have not put their focus on that they've just focused on

59:21

the story of sacrificing the Sun and and then they've also thought well actually maybe God had wanted him to say and they've gone with that story and just emphasized many such told as God told him to sacrifice his son he starts from one thing and it ends up as that most is the sky blue or blue is the sky well that's the question my friend that's the question while Saif was saying how will human beings practice Islam a mosque when they become a multiplanetary species yeah

1:00:00

1:04:26

flight first class and they bring him some alcoholic drink and he's like I don't want sorry it's okay so the air hostess comes back with the you know she's kind of done it up she's put it into this impressive glass and and he's like no I don't want it then they bring it back on this platter and this they they make it even more impressive and they're like no I don't want it and then they come back with flowers around the drinking and by this stage you already know the amount of BS that's in this

1:05:01

1:06:54

very interesting sentimental kind of journey explained in the words of the Wazir himself do check it out it's about charity the humanitarian cause and aid and and wise eels travels through it through his his past into his current his present going around the world seeing people in crises the help he's been involved with what are some of the we discussed what are some of the problems with charities why are people

1:07:34

1:08:44

and get fried I guess yeah now why didn't she go to Saudi Arabia haha that is a good point though why don't they make a claim for her to seek asylum in a Muslim country that would be fascinating Saudi Arabia would be like

1:09:13

cha-cha-cha-cha via throat de brazza as you doing it with the super chapped petrol you doing it let me just bring up the if the Quran is God's total revelation and guidance even on small matters of etiquette why do we still need hadith you see the Quran it's not on small etiquettes always you know going to cover those issues I don't feel inconveniencing people is a small issue

1:09:53

the fact that Allah in the Quran on one verse highlights inconvenience should be avoided does not now mean the Quran is full of you know that is a trivial matter I feel that you're trivializing this it is a big deal you see you have to remember that these subtleties break societies especially when a society is that small it's not like see you we're too used to the world today these you know highly populated urbanized cities metropolitan cities that we live in the world back then did not know this kind

1:10:32

of a world so these small settlements of people it's not a small thing for them for them it was huge so yeah I don't I think some people are just because I've had so many questions now on this on this why were people why did God say about you know not inconveniencing the Prophet why is this I don't know who's more inconvenienced here oh it's like people seem to be so inconvenienced by this why did God revealed that the angels are like a church

1:11:10

1:15:07

I am reasonable let me tell you guys a tragic tragic story so there was a he would have been scholar trained scholarly trained or equivalent I believe although he I don't think he was a renowned scholar in that sense or anything but there was a person called even Israel now if I did so even as rate

1:15:46

al-baghdadi now in these tale people this person who hails from all that Iraq over a thousand years ago so he's in the 384 century Islam the the kind of time when you've got legends like even of is a they later were knee in you know young Malik and you've got it's it's after the but you've got some major had the scene around a bit before him but like people Eichner he burn and even a Jose man you've got like great people around still it's that time anyway

1:16:27

just over 300 years after the Prophet 350 years about that time so this person he's in Bildad and he's settled down he's married now he stuck his struggling with livelihood now he has a beautiful wife hahaha let me bring up the photo not obviously I don't have that but all the descriptions right that he was married to he had an absolutely beautiful wife you know these kind of things they just intrigued everyone isn't it you could be

1:17:06

reading something in the Gulf well your absences she was absolutely beautiful and you're like huh yeah well quick picture we are pika so he has this stunning wife this is what the the people who write they they mention and he was madly in love with her and she as vice versa though no tariffs no thought of it was two-way love it was a it wasn't a one-way street it was two-way - it wasn't even a two-way street was an expressway was it was a motorway going both ways but what

1:17:45

happens is he struggling to make a living so he hears that there's a competition for somebody who who can kind of come up with certain like a script or we can come up with something but it's all the way in Al Andalus and the winner or the person who you know this patron is impressed with will have an immense reward of great monetary value so basically cha-ching big bucks so he traveled from Baghdad

1:18:23

all the way across to Spain that's where this was he finally gets to Spain but wait before he sets off his wife says to him he says na ba ba na na Nana na Nana she says don't no no that's way too far that's a different continent don't go so he says look we need money I need to go she says why didn't you try something else try your luck here a neighboring town neighbouring city don't go all the way to Al Andalus

1:19:03

mr. Spain considering they were in Iraq so he doesn't listen to her he says look he says a more meal you have to wait right now my destiny is calling me so he sets off on this journey travels indoors hardship gets to Spain he arrives there eventually and it's a very lengthy journey as you can imagine when he gets there he realizes that the patron who had put out this kind of competition

1:19:41

global competition has kind of withdrawn and said that something's happened and he's saying no there is no no more not supporting whatever it was I'm not in need of it so he becomes incredibly disheartened and thinks well you know what I better this has been a waste so I better set back go back listen pack our bags people were going right back he sets off on his return journey and he falls ill on the way so they tell him he's still in muscly he's

1:20:21

around the edge of Muslim Spain and they tell him look maybe you should just wait till you get better he tries war you know a couple of days it's not working he says you know what forget it let me just travel I'll make it you know I'll get better along the way and he sets off he goes he write three has to go through North Africa and certain parts of like deserts and stuff like this and people lo and behold he's struck down with death they find

1:20:57

him and he has this this paper with him and Ani he's written a poem to his wife is the love of his life and he writes a poem to her and he's kind of holding on to that and he's died and this is how they find him and this poem because it's the only poem he ever wrote it's called the atima the orphan yet emotive nursery and I came across this and I thought you know what this would be Paul but he in this poem he writes to her that you know you were

1:21:36

right all along I should never have left some of the things he says though he says letter idly - illallah you leo you odd ulti happen while lurking Lisa yes ma'am he says to her like don't rebuke him now like don't find you know like correct him now in that sense like this just further you know it kind of enrages him more that what you said was the truth

1:22:53

1:24:47

1:30:21

heartbreaking to read the story of Evenor zurich really i thought i thought i'd share it with you guys and further thrust you guys into a spiral of disheartened depression right so what is kill win down people what is going down we spring up some reason

1:30:54

while SIF Bale has asked given the progress shown by SpaceX and Blue Origin it's very likely that humans will colonize space and Mars soon how will we pray facing Qibla on Mars then I think that's not a problem we would just come up with something I mean you could just see the Tipler is just really a center of

1:31:29

just the center of attention for it's just a focal point during prayer and things like that it's a symbolic people could just come up with one it doesn't mean that you know and they could somehow for example base it on something so the day they inaugurate it for example whichever way the earth is from there they could maybe set out a direction like that and and from that point forward just keep that as the direction simple as that everybody just points to wherever that was on Mars wherever they land it could be the Templars it could be this it's

1:32:07

not really that difficult you ignored my question as usual why well shukran from the super chair I mean it's hack Muller uh why is that the question why did I I I don't know what the question is send it again and I'll try to answer

1:32:40

all right whoa the questions are going so fast have you asked share a saddle Huck damn I didn't you know but I will you you there is a hadith of the Prophet not looking at people who had long mustaches but no beards is this an exact example

1:33:16

of intolerance no I mean this I don't think that hadith Asahi that the Prophet never looked at them they say hadith that the Prophet asked that what what is this custom and they said well our Lords have told us to do this but that hadith also begins by them prostrating first of all to the people and then the Prophet says why do you prostate prostrate like that to us to people and they said well that's what we do to our kings and elders and the Prophet said don't do that and then he said why do you do this like

1:33:56

how come you shave this and grow this you know these two had really big moustaches so they just said that's our custom and the Prophet said oh well you know well we asked not to be like that but I think that wasn't to do with you see God isn't interested in how you keep your hair it was more so about the kind of how you treat people how you as in you see this kind of the the aristocracy or the arrogance of the

1:34:32

aristocracy of the what was in in that time the the Persian dynasty that you had need to get that heated up right so it's more about the arrogance of what they were portraying and representing it wasn't the fact that oh Allah doesn't like you to have have hair on your face then that doesn't make any sense why would it bother God about the kind of obviously if God has made you that way

1:35:11

to grow here and then you grow it in a particular way within what God would get angry that doesn't make any sense so yeah mm-hmm what is going on you right so

1:35:46

somebody says I want him to analyze exactly that verse I don't know what verse you're talking about right so angry face Posse or the angry face is going on no idea I can't really see them here Sophie are you doing it with the Stars you doing it I asked you if you need a jhaza to teach all is hot mullah had asked right okay that's an interesting one do you need a jazzer to

1:36:25

teach hmm I guess you see what Jassa means is an authorization as a recognition it means in essence once you break it all down it means a recognition that you that you are capable now I think that would be important in the social world at some level so whether it's going to be from a university from a madrasah you've passed the test or a teacher says you know were you pretty good at at this now that's what it's the

1:37:04

it's it's a check it's checks and balances to make sure people ain't just being stupid you know and I'm gonna play a clip in a moment about some Salafi the masala segment and his incredible wisdom and this is what happens when you don't have a license because you just you know it's dumb teaching the dumb and you're just making people dumber all in the name of Islam Islam is like a cha-cha-cha thanks yeah it's not like I didn't have

1:37:42

a bad rap already with all these terrorists now I've got these these God gifted geniuses to to give me the image of just being stupid so that's yeah so each other that's what it means I suppose from an Islamic viewpoint it's not about you know if a person knew something they could teach it it's not that so you don't need a piece of paper technically speaking it's not from an Islamic perspective but what it is it comes back to if you know and

1:38:21

here you have to pause do you actually know though do you know is the question or do you just think you know you know this is like the story I've told it before where a recent a researcher he he decides to you know self-proclaimed scientist a biologist a zoologist he decides that you know what he's gonna

1:38:57

investigate flies and communication with flies and so what he does is he gets this fly and he's got in his thick and and and then what he does is he plucks out one wing and he know first of all he's got the flying then he's telling flies flying around everywhere and he's saying he's talking to the fly like he's giving it instructions but the fly isn't listening he's saying okay fly around fly around okay stop stop obviously the flies is doing whatever is it's not listening but he's thinking maybe it's listening you know maybe he thinks you know what hmm

1:39:35

let me he pulls one of the wings off and then he says you know fly around now fly around and the fly is flying but he's struggling but he's got one wing and it's you know kind of like struggling and says hmm hmm interesting interesting he makes a note interesting then he pulls the other wing off he he goes fly around flow around and the flies are standing they said fly around then he goes interesting so he writes his conclusion and his conclusion is that you know when a fly's got both wings it's kind of haphazard and it's you know it's doing all these things and

1:40:15

it's out of control and feels constricted and then he says you know when you pull one wing off a fly struggles but it still has the survival and it does all of this and he tries to fight against the circumstance - then he says but if you pull two wings out the fly becomes death so his conclusion was that the two things that the fly became death because we're now saying move it wouldn't move now so so this is the example you see that's the example

1:40:54

people of of is there's no harm in teaching if you know the problem is do you know it's the question I am Sofia you're not Sofia you're not Sofia I'm the Salafi so that's the problem you see the question is do they know now is Sibylle is it I can't read that name I still don't understand why you have to go by hadith I mean like give me one

1:41:33

verse from the Quran that needs explaining by something outside of the Quran yeah it's not about that you see it's about the Sun now why do we go by the Sunnah of the Prophet because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam was the living embodiment of the Quran and it's only understandable that he being the best of creation showed us many things by example many whether it's day-to-day things whether it's how you deal with problems whether it's you see it's not just the rulings but it's the

1:42:12

tools that are applied how do you have really shapes how do you you know how did he deal when people were arguing in front of him how did he advise her but now it doesn't mean that the principles to these things are not in the Quran they are the Quran will tell you that look you should look after orphans but the prophets would show it by example you would find out stories you would learn you would learn about the life of the Prophet you'd see how he and this is an inspiration for Muslims to live a life to say well the Prophet is meaningless

1:42:50

he's just he came he bought the Quran goodbye we don't really want to know anything about you or if we do you know it's just mmm that is is generally seen as a disservice to to Islam because the Prophet is much more than just a you know just a vehicle he's not like just something somebody that just conveyed revelation he embodied it so yes I mean it's the Sunnah and we know as a fact

1:43:29

that Sunnah so much that we know that it existed we know that many things were accurate we know through and the Sunnah is captured in the living tradition or after the Prophet which was then captured by fit and was also documented amongst several hadith the hadith is not a perfect portrayal of the Sunnah but the hadith is like a database which contains some of the Sunna in it it would contain but it contain other things

1:44:05

firk does contain the Sunnah as well as other things as well so you have to you know you can kind of piece together this picture through different narrations think about if we you know just said oh you know oh hadith what is the point of any hadith then we wouldn't know anything about the Prophet we wouldn't know like you wouldn't even know for example what would the prophet's wives name where did the Prophet grow up what city did he live in what was Medina yathreb you wouldn't know that if it wasn't for the Sunnah how would you know who the companions were how would you

1:44:45

wouldn't know anything these names are not in the Quran you don't get the story of all these things in the Quran then they're not there there's nothing there how many children did the Prophet have did the Prophet have children in that sense did he have children I mean these things are not necessarily clear in the Quran it does say okay mark you know he's not a father of the men amongst you but and you could infer certain things but it doesn't talk about these about the prophet's life like that it does so everything you know about Islam really comes from the literature around that

1:45:23

living tradition the kind of that captured otherwise you don't know anything about Islam Mackay's only mentioned what like one time in the Quran it's not even mentioned like how do you know where anything happened how do you know where the Prophet even was if this is why they say today because they reject hadith they say oh the Prophet wasn't even in Makkah was in Petra why because the Quran doesn't even really specify with the Prophet is it doesn't you don't know anything you know if you this is why you to just say I'm gonna take all the Sunnah around the prophets life and just throw it in the

1:46:03

bin because why do we need it you would have no knowledge of the Prophet all all the his companions or anything how Islam evolved who were the people what were the challenges I mean you could get some info says oh that this seems to be some challenge because this verse is talking about some opposition but you'd have no idea you wouldn't really know what would heart was happening you wouldn't really even know where the Prophet was in the world you just I mean your every assumption is just because of the living tradition of Islam it's not because of the Quran the Quran doesn't specify

1:46:42

where the prophet was living so yes so I mean I think to deny these things is to really just deprive yourself like what you're left with is a very shallow version of of the faith that's that's to me anyway that's what I feel right so Mufti what is your view on Malik Ashtar mm-hmm right so you see Malika Lester to be honest I'm not fond of molecular stir my

1:47:18

my in my reading of him people might get upset but you see I feel that Malik Ashtar was not I feel the general Sunni narrative is that he was involved in the killing of Earthmen and he was one of the Chiefs that was involved in that killing he didn't actually kill him but he was one of the main Chiefs that was and one of the main fighters that was giving strength to that gang that attacked earth man and you know laid siege to his house and then eventually

1:47:56

killed him but there was a whole kind of there was that insurgency yeah I had a whole group of people but amongst them were I think they were there were several groups but they each group had achieved and amongst the kind of main chieftains if you like the main people that were like the the upper league was Malik Ashtar and so I feel he was wasn't a good person he was about he was definitely a bad person in my understanding he was very heavy-handed

1:48:34

he was an absolute warrior I mean they don't deny that he was one of the greatest fighters of the Arabs and this is why sedna Ali brother lon uses him and that's for example me as a person and many Muslims previously that's a point that they would have disagreed we'd say now Leon they would feel that you know st. alyre of the Ilan did use him made him his second-in-command because he was a ruthless fighter and he was like a feared Arab throughout the whole you know all that his reputation preceded him he was a like a warrior absolute

1:49:12

warrior so and obviously that's the oh I said gnarly Leon made him the second-in-command but he was a murder of Oz man I mean what's he doing in second of command you know this and this was he ID'd and he agitated the other Muslims because they felt that what's going on here and they and this then feeds that theory that why was they felt that the murderers of ours man because the murders of us man was sympathetic with Ali of the Elan and there was some theories that I li was sympathetic with them even though the Sunnis don't we

1:49:50

don't generally endorse that but that is a theory out there that was one of the theories that say deny Lee kind of turned a blind eye to the killing of us man and he was almost like as in it didn't bother him this is one of the theories I don't agree with that theory but I'm just saying this but at the time later on when said Ali did things like this like made Malachi Lester is second-in-command you can imagine the frustration with the other people because they then this just reinforces that theory the in saying well hmm okay if he's your second-in-command and he seems to be one of the guys behind the

1:50:30

murder of earth man so yeah but this is that whole Sunni Shia are kind of split isn't it this is where people would disagree because I think he is a revered figure according to the Shia yeah but I mean according to Sunnis generally he's not revered and some may be a bit okay as in some are I don't think generally speaking Sunnis my impression is they don't like him at all as ask the Sunni position but some will be perhaps more outspoken than others

1:51:10

against him so some kind of or like they don't like him but they're not that outspoken against him and some are like heavily outspoken against him so I I don't like him personally from my reading of history he was very heavy-handed he was ruthless he will murdered many Muslims he and he was sent to fight against those companions who were neutral so there was a group of companions who did not partake with ally Omaha we are already a rowdy law on him they just kind of withdrew and they went to I think it's called

1:51:46

corrupt amazing in Egypt but Miley caleche there is the one that is then sent to to crush them and even though they were neutral they weren't against signally but they weren't for him either so but they weren't with my REI they were just people who did not want any fighting they were kind of you know conscientious objectors so yes I I'm kind of like that I feel that war was always wrong and it shouldn't it didn't bring any good to anyone in the Civil War to be honest is what halted the Muslim

1:52:25

advance so if you even history through non-muslim sources will show you that during the whole of our time is LOM was spreading rapidly throughout the lands and it's when the Civil War breaks that it gives the Byzantines and all these people an opportunity to kind of read troop up to to get their strength together to re-strategize to build up forces to because they had a couple of years to do that then because the Civil War lasts amongst Muslims for a couple of years so yeah so I don't think war

1:53:03

was a good idea but not to get distracted I understand look to some people maybe they Revere molecular stuff so look that's their opinion I'm not gonna say you shouldn't have that this is my opinion you know to me it doesn't make a difference it's not like he's a companion of the Prophet anyway and he I don't believe you know I mean anyway I suppose let's leave that but my point is that to me that's my opinion on it cool right what the next question look at that some of the

1:53:41

was the son of Abu Bakr rode along on with the killers of earth man he was he was the son of abu bakr mohammed was from the killers of earth man that's true although he did later on acknowledge he was wrong yeah you see that there was that the difference is you see the yeah I mean there was just chaos at that time I guess and people were kind of it was what it was I guess

1:54:20

of Rama Deva never was those who didn't support what was going on with earth man's government that's true I mean Muhammad was against Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr the son of a worker was against earth man but they say you know he kind of felt sorry about what he did and regretted but he wasn't a key player he was just like a pawn in the whole thing you see he's just like somebody that even though he see the people they send in the end to attack him and kill earth man are not the key players they just

1:54:59

like the little pawns they send like go on go on go go on this egg them on and get them to do it but it's they were the key players behind it were these Chiefs that because there were hundreds of them the insurgents in fact some say thousands of them and they it was the chief people that were the key players the people who held power it wasn't these little people these were just they were just playing on their sentiments making them winding them up because they were a bit frustrated with whatever yeah cool

1:55:36

yah yah yah yah somebody's saying is Mufti over now I think I've just had a I think I've just been exhausted today that's all honestly I don't normally get exhausted but invite Mustapha Briggs on mine trap I have actually invited most of our breaks he did say to me he's in the UK now and he wants to do it but yeah I don't as soon as we can definitely definitely right and then also HT maybe

1:56:13

1:59:24

that we have to go through what we did not like we reap what we did not so this obviously is pointing to the original sin which isn't really an Islamic concept at all but still I guess you know if you want to say John Tom wiki such a jauntily case a shark who maybe money ham supporter hoagie are leaking Cabiria hi he says I know a certain person of

2:00:38

right before what's going on here was the Mufti Abu alpha are you to be oh is this a hater Rooney we go Hitler on here have any classical scholars ever criticized accepting hadith from forage yes of course they would in my Malik the dawn hence he criticized taking hadith of Eric Rama because he was horrid I mean it's ridiculous you know just because

2:01:17

Bihari accepts some of the you know when it comes to I'm Ronnie banana hit on and he takes his hadith he was a ridiculous hearted you who's hell-bent against Sedna he was very he was one of the key people that praised those who murdered Holly Brody lon and you know yet Buhari accepts his hadith and this is dumb they the justification that even Roger gives is stupid you know it's got a but that's

2:01:55

seriously that's the kind of justification that even higher and these people give well they say well you know because these people considered any sin to be covered then they wouldn't lie because lying is a sin and so if they lied they would be careful hmm [Music] so was it your dad that was committing the murders they used to only murder people the Huaraz were some of the most ruthless murderers in Islamic history you know it's documented how they would torture villages like when they

2:02:33

ransacked Basara and these places the stories about how they would slice the stomach's of pregnant women and all these things this was known about the huar age mmm but they won't lawyer knit-o-bot baba is good for any to lie and you touch over here he butchering people that isn't good for so you think if they can do that they can't lie I mean water that's them now missed you're stupid just such a you know so

2:03:10

you know that that is just sorry I to use this so that theory sorry you know what it is look you know in hadith you have two camps of people you have the hadith absolutists and Hadees relativists the absolutists or dogmatists when it comes to hadith you see to them it's not so much about what

2:03:49

the hadith says it's about the craft of hadith and making sure that not a single scratch hits the craft like it doesn't matter about the content it's like a ship to them it what's not important is those who are afloat on the ship or aboard the ship it's that the ship must stay intact I don't give a damn if there's a cow standing on it or is this a person or is this bad people or good people if they're smuggling more if they going to visit family or if they're going on a pilgrimage you know you know

2:04:28

mother haha you know it's it makes no difference to me it's to them it's just the craft has to remain unscathed so from this camp or people like Imam Bihari and the great you know those kind of Mahad death in the hadith project those who are all about the hadith project and later people like the hubby and you know you're gonna get even a Salah as well to some extent even a Hajj or definitely he's an absolute absolutist and so these people they don't care what the content of the hadith is

2:05:07

the craft cannot be scathed or scratched then you get her these relativists to them the craft is secondary or tertiary it's about what who it's carrying who comes across on the ship is that person a good person is that person a bad person so is that person a murderer is he a is that blurry still all right it's got better right so is so that's

2:05:46

people like imam malik they pioneer that camp where they are you know no they will reject the hadees' they they don't care about the craft it's about what's being transmitted so here so people like even a ha job his justifications are always to simply save the craft that's his utmost goal he will bend over backwards he will you know do three you know I don't know kind of like somersaults in the air and land and and then bend over backward he will do

2:06:24

anything by any means necessary he will produce preserve the concept not the concept preserved the is not that's all that matters to him I mean he'll accept the Satanic Verses for example he'll say chelev ovt whatever happens this ship can't be scratched I mean he's a nice guy I suppose at this point saying is a nice guys and you know but uh all right so that's my point

2:07:04

I might shut my eyes I'm sad man says I might just stay single then better to play the card safe oh yeah are we doing some matching show is that what was she are we doing like a blind date thing going on here we arranging setting people up speed dating nor theable eighth who else from the hull of criticized some hadith many people criticized heavy Imam Malik Imam Abu Hanifa the early seller for very

2:07:40

critical of hadith in fact they draw a distinction between hadith and Sunna Mufti was even a Hodja read the original The Rock he was and he had a fine taste in women as well apparently they say this is why he has a special liking with me I think like wow what a guy you got but uh so what is going on Mufti is

2:08:19

cannabis Haram I've got a detailed video on cannabis watch that I do say that cannabis see marijuana is I explained that there's several caveats and then it's not Haram but I do explain that if people are for example over a certain age when the neural networks in the brain have pretty much set all the plasticity is kind of fully its fully fledged kind of grown out there it's not sold above the age of 25 I think for people under that age it would be Haram and definitely under 18 it would

2:08:59

categorically be Haram the damage it would do to the neural networks in the brain any kind of psychoactive substance would damage the neural networks if they've you know whilst they're still growing so once they've grown then I don't feel it's Haram but I've got a detailed video explaining it did you know about responsibility and things like that and there are obviously it's an issue of legality

2:09:30

right so what is going on you yeah somebody said wording distinction between hadith and Sunna yeah Imam Malik was at the forefront of making that distinction as was Abu Hanifa they did not hadith was not necessarily supreme bassoon Nawaz

2:10:00

right so multi sub why do non-arab Muslims act Arab I suppose this I suppose there's nothing wrong in acting Arab if a person wants to act Arab there are Arabs are amazing people as well one may even argue God's gift to man but but I think the you see it's not even Arabs because there's a particular type of Arab which is the Saudi the Gulf Arab

2:10:40

the Saudi because Arabs remember stretch all the way from the Middle East right to Al multiple artery which is modern-day Morocco and Mauritania and everything in between so it's not Arabs generally are not what you're picturing when you're picturing somebody in a long robe and wearing you know a long or having a long beard and wearing that kind of they're the red and white scarf and things like this and the women dressed in black and that's particularly that Saudi Arabia specifically in the

2:11:18

Gulf by extension but beyond that it's not Arabs law not like that so you know Syrian Arabs are not like that Iraqi Arabs are not like the Egyptian Arabs are not like that Libyan Arabs are not like that to museun Algerian Moroccan Mauritanian Sudanese but you've got my point is you're taking Lebanese Arabs are not like that so you're just looking at one or maybe a couple of countries and saying Arabs as a whole so that's a huge generalization in and of itself yeah but if people want to act our

2:11:57

people can act whatever they want I mean who cares it's their life do whatever you like but yeah I mean it's not Islam is not defined by being an Arab for example but there are certain things about the Arabic that will always be bound with Islam that is true so the Quran is an Arabic Quran and forever it will immortalize the language of the Arabs and the Prophet was an Arab and so therefore we do have that kind of a

2:12:37

theorem that kind of honor and respect and love for you know for Arabs in that sense we do it doesn't mean this is supremacy it just means a kind of love for the Prophet out of on earth to the Prophet that's all it kind of means yeah but but it doesn't and the flip side of that is sometimes that there's this thing of this this supremacy which sometimes non Arabs feel that all Arabs have a supremacy which they don't per se there's no you know Islam does not say

2:13:16

that the Arab is better than the agem and the irony I mean not the irony and then you find it amongst Arabs as well you know this I've like I will tell you that there have been many Arab mâche hmm especially those in the Western world who will have a problem for example with people like me not because of just the way I look obviously that that many people will have a problem with that but they will have a problem with me because they will think how can he be

2:13:55

you know how can he know this stuff how can he be learning in Islam and he's not even an Arab like the i-i've I've experienced that that they think that what can he possibly know he's not even an Arab and I think well yeah I'm here to set the record straight it's like this this is the this is the 21st century so but there is this thing I've had you know several people sometimes they on purpose that they'll

2:14:34

be stubbornly reject me even if they won't say this pub but they'll say to people around them that you know that there and then people will tell me you know that this is what they say that how can he know I've had people say how can he know the Maliki matter how you know he's not even an Arab and he's a Pakistani and what the hell do Pakistanis know about the Maliki Mother you know the hanafis and what do they know about I'll say that's true if I was

2:15:09

an average Baxter well upon Zara I like that's the you know but I'm a bit different you know this one that's mmm the pulse in neewa in control Akira's Amano la artem be my lamb tateleh ye so that's that's what the poet says he says

2:15:48

how all come with things that are unprecedented that those before me could not do but yeah but you do get this sometimes so you get it both ways you get it from people who raise people on a pedestal this whole thing of and then you get it the other way that there's you know that kind of discrimination how can but in all honesty the a gem you know the non-arabs have it doesn't mean Arabs haven't but also a gem have incredibly served this theme you know when you look back the greatest accomplishments or many of not all but many of the greatest

2:16:28

accomplishments within Islam weren't done by people of Arab heritage they were actually they spoke Arabic maybe they they learnt Arabic but they weren't Arabs most of the great scholars of Islam weren't Arabs you know and we speak of bihari we speak of tirmidhi speak of abu dawood abu dawood was all the way from modern-day Pakistan I mean you speak of Abu Hanifah families came from Afghanistan Kabul they came from you know you speak of the most of these people weren't even when you look at the rulership you know the the whole thing about the

2:17:07

the the Turkic people not Turkish but Turkic people that came up from the kind of Eastern European steps they came down and they how they were running the show behind the scenes for centuries I mean during the Abbasid era and the whole mum looks were them that was them prior to them the persians were running the show i mean it's not whether you look at it politically whether you look at it you know and even when the whole crafts and the sciences were about to die out and nizam al-mulk

2:17:43

you know when he sets up for malik shah the persian king who was at his time the greatest ruler you know and he would he was muslim in fact he I don't even think he spoke Arabic he used to just do everything in Farsi I believe but in his time his you know the Vizier this nizam al-mulk he's the one who sets up this but madrasah nizamiah in baghdad and and they by keeps alive the islamic sciences by setting up this patronage and all of this throughout the Muslim lands so there has been a huge head ma huge fitme

2:18:21

done by non people they they obviously all kara be coming I speak Arabic in that sense you know everything that we read is in our people they they were part of the tongue but they weren't by descent Arabs they so yeah and he is a shame these kind of things but it doesn't mean just to come back to that question it doesn't mean that oh to be holy you have to be Saudi mostly straight people can

2:18:56

marry still do adultery straight people care how was that question is it too much to tell LGBT to remain celibate you know I was I was thinking of trying to get a you know like speaking of LGBT I was trying to get a thinking of getting a lesbian it's a lesbian or an offensive word I don't know I don't think it is this it

2:19:35

is it isn't that just it's the feminine of gay yes so I was thinking of getting a lesbian on the show mind trap and having these interesting discussions I think it'd be really fascinating actually right so like the jar with a small D that calls for a jar with a small D or we can say a mini de Giles no but this is my all-time favorite one the jar with the big deal okay [Music]

2:20:20

so right but hmm I asked earlier about philosophical debates from modern perspective being a result of poor understanding of space-time nature of infinity etc yeah I mean standing of space-time and all these things from an Islamic perspective I don't think you're gonna get much on things they will mention some of these things historically so they will speak about the atom and the indivisible in all true so LED light that just BA Kalani speaks about it you will get other people far be these people will speak on some of these matters but it's

2:21:00

not the same way as today you're better off just learning it through English just learn it through YouTube honestly just go I seriously say if you want to learn something just go to youtube type in start off with beginners kind of like crash course in this like five minute you know clips ten minute clips then watch an hour clip half an hour clip then watch a variety of clips now you've got a huge you know you'll be surprised how much you already know then start reading up a bit different things Google questions YouTube those questions watch a few documentaries on it maybe buy a few books at that stage I think this

2:21:38

this I don't know but this I learn a lot of the things I want to learn I learn him like that that's my style of learning message East London Munda messaged message deleted East London one dissenter snapchat surya super chat shook button and delete doing it you doing it right so right Riesling shukran shukran by the way for the super

2:22:15

Chan likewise couple much love right so Muftis what's your view on niccolò machiavelli yeah I think Machiavelli was you know he he had a point really many of his things the whole thing about things like the prince which he writes for which is kind of like you know it's one of those what do they call it a blood I'm just my brain is just not

2:22:53

functioning today I'm so exhausted they call it the the mirror what are they called mirror texts or mirror but it's for the rulers they basically books written that were designed for kings or rulers to read and he was like the the guide to how to rule and it have like wisdoms in there and the whole thing about Machiavelli is he shows that the fitrah of human beings the essence is a sinister conniving essence it's one that's out there to get you to do one

2:23:31

over you whereas Thomas Hobbes and these people will have a different and actually I mean arguably but uh jean-jacques Rousseau for example sorry would have a very kind of like a soft that nature our feather in essence is more benevolent and kind hmm and I feel that that's interesting I don't I feel that you see we have the capacity to do both but maybe our nature

2:24:11

could be self-centered hmm I think we learn compassion I think we we have compassion anyway but I don't think our compassion is universal I think it's to those who are near and dear like animals and we the difference between us and animals is we can extend that to humanity but I think that might be a learned process hmm obviously through empathy we could do it as well but I just mean that I think in my understanding in line with several

2:24:50

studies as well we are born quite bigoted like babies are usually at bigots babies are just tyrants might be a cute tyrant with a tyrant see so you've got they just like bigots and selfish as hell and I don't give a damn about anybody or anything and they they they're xenophobic I think they wouldn't like anything different to them and

2:25:27

every I think the rest is a learning curve they start learning tolerance they learn compassion that's what a lot of studies show and I kind of fall in line with that I think that seems to it is true but I don't know about telling grownups to be you see because the thing about the prince is it's telling the person to always be conniving which is interesting but and definitely holds truth but I don't know if I'd want that to be the universal standard do you understand because that's another thing

2:26:06

you see this things we wouldn't mind doing but we wouldn't want other people to be doing them this is where the hypocrisy comes out right so woe is at the time you know what we should start wrapping up soon right why is this dunya patriarchal yeah that's a very fascinated and fascinating question actually babies are bigoted in Isis in the sense they choose people with symmetrical faces yeah I mean I'm sure they because

2:26:45

that's a sign of what it's kind of it pleases them to look at I guess it's a sign of what is aesthetically appealing beautiful to them whereas asymmetry is seen as something distorted yeah but there's not only symmetry there's also proportionality so I mean you could be symmetrical but if your eyes are like so it could be symmetrically like that or if they both positioned over there or if your ears are positioned like over

2:27:24

there or so it's not just symmetry there's also proportionality like the distance between one I to the other I in the ratio of the face all of these things are taken into consideration for that aesthetic kind of resonance yeah right so what is going on love you too most eg allahditta right well a lot did that affair asana we have to as well love e2 allahditta since God

2:28:02

gave you all right so did the prophet or the Companions wear earrings get calm and take off your shirt it's candle yeah move my scandal or yoga arm fades yeah right coming to the question did the Prophet we know the Prophet never wore earrings his most likely is grandsons wore earrings they were companions Hassan Hussein both wore earrings rather low on maybe other

2:28:40

companions did maybe but you see the question is people say well why didn't anybody report it but they didn't see this as report worthy it's not a like it's like you see you you're in a day and age where you're finding it interesting but to them it wasn't interesting its you know like to them it was just like why would anybody even kid but obviously give 1,400 years and here we are obsessed right yet there was a companion with the golden nose yeah that's because

2:29:20

he had his nose cut off hmm did Muslim men have long hair back then yes I mean most of the companions had braided here these to tie little plots into the ears and even the Prophet did that as well but they all generally as a fashion thing they had long hair the Arabs did anyway [Music] mostly you need to get a sub ready what's a sub ready there you do a post and we can add our questions there for Monday night

2:30:02

okay I'm not sure what that is golden nose Wow but I think that was partially aesthetics and part the reason it was golden was obviously one it's easy to mold and two doesn't rust and things like that so a rye of rice oh did I miss anything that I've wanted definitely cover let me see mm-hmm right nope that's all fine with a certain points

2:30:38

alright let's go to people's people's people's oh right I did see this by the way they was let me just bring this up so ah ignore it I realized I'd removed the the thing so right people are let's the masala segment masala so this is the sub masala this is a tiny bit this isn't this masala this isn't what I want to talk about but I saw this somebody sent me this and the Oscar goes

2:31:13

to our below it below Eid but what I did want to share with you guys was actually the pious the pious predecessors people the pious you know selfie I am selfie so people speaking of selfies we've got the selfie genius here some person a chef

2:31:51

you see this is what happens when they say blind leading the blind right so people are I going down so we've got here I believe let me and they have an air freshener on the mirror little pine tree came innocent right afraid not son let's take this off and keep it here let's not allow anybody to hang the pine tree on the rearview mirror why would I do that

2:32:27

we're hanging something on the car right now you gotta understand it's a pine tree what's it for it's to take care of any bad smell in the car to make this the car smell much better question is why does the beard look like a pine tree actually having a debate on this this little before this chapter go before

2:33:04

this chapter I got the same anyone he'll be interested in to it something more more than that even evidence bring me the lead did he say tell them to ask each person why they have a string and if there is some [ __ ] connected to that string then remove this string otherwise leave the strings or did he say get rid

2:33:43

of every string make sure that there remains no writing beasts with a bow string around it except that it's cut off no questions about why why is that done said done lived on our air prints on so that those people who would eventually go into you know this protects my animal and I'll be harmed or it makes it strong or keeps it healthy or whatever that is either through that protects the riding beasts or eventually after the lesser form of weeks then it's

2:34:19

the male law protect his glasses the reason we should remove those air fresheners right and look for the reward in removing those air fresheners and not safe but really it's just an air freshener what's wrong with an air freshener is mandated reason why you should remove something like that from the rearview mirror of a car with anyone know what what about those glasses that

2:34:54

are suspended from his driving codes it's anything from your rear-view mirror anything that would take up any space of your view so aside from the issue of Tony and we have the issue of safety first safety this actually does block

2:35:31

the wonderful colors going on in his beard are just slightly distracting this is not ship Olsen referring to serenepoon he'll tell you for the watch is Xena Oh Murphy here I this is another feature which I wrote hmm no other wattage Xena

2:36:05

Oh what is Xena not Xena Xena I'm not a boy which I need better man yeah the mobile they look shady right hand by Wright had to senior out I decree I say if he that Jamila stars Musa Musa and Aviva [ __ ] in Iran sorry over your lover

2:36:43

and I know cannon and the via salaallah alayhi wa sallam agree about the aesthetic this is a puppeteer in Balad mean water in the act to prevent from the evil eye well water I can only see hands running never pay destructor and water jo verifiability you happy home in LA in an abusive our anniversary and give a meal

2:37:21

is very generous Olin European he own appear in talega mean water an elevator in Lafayette so this cheerful Xander refuting Moosa as you've got him right the allah moosa Richardson I am Salafi

2:37:57

[Music] this is what basically he tried to do with Islam that's what basically Moosa Richardson destroyed to do by teaching Islam you see and this is the problem because we are still Iran that about having a license to teach so the hadith that he had is he writes in Buhari transmitted through the dawn of Medina Imam Malik as you can see the he was transmitting it that Abu Bashir al ansari mentions at the prophecy Ali

2:38:36

Salim said in a journey whilst they were travelling that he said that he sent someone the Prophet sent someone he said Eliab infe a rock but he by ear in colada I mean water in a pelada Aleppo that so they should not don't leave these things if you see him remove them and what were they they were these superstitious practices about warding off evil and the problem with this thought process is it entrenches people

2:39:12

into superstition which is crippling so Islam came to liberate the human mind and human consciousness from the shackles of superstition so that's what it is and then you've got masha'Allah that Richardson with his wonderful colorful coat of the technical ed beard

2:39:40

why do people die their beards orange like that I mean I don't know what this Trump thing is going on there but people for some reason think oh this is Sunnah no it isn't but okay anyway so Moosa Richardson is teaching people saying okay you know this is to do [ __ ] how can you hang an air freshener pine air freshener god damn it don't you know that I having one of these you've committed

2:40:13

shook you are now pagan this is this is the problem people this is the problem this is why you have to learn about Islam and when somebody said earlier on about etirsa this is why these things are important and I think it's also you know sometimes it's just common sense as well otherwise you know you you set out to do something magnificent but what you end up doing here is chef is going is

2:40:51

explaining Islam is explaining for not much left now that he can explain about Islam this alrighty what one two rapid questions and then we'll wrap this up people what some you need to learn people otherwise you end up if you rely on Google Translate to do your translations which reminds me if you rely on just Google

2:43:46

this DMT pose a threat to your soul when you go into the high zone I don't think so I think these things connect one to the raw as in the raw to me is consciousness so I feel you kind of it connects that it's like it's a portal to that world the other world and wine you know I know people see if you think about it I think the greatest Delisle for that is our mind the mind is not a

2:44:23

tangible thing and it's very existence I think reflects the the kind of abstract concreteness of these things this kind of portal into consciousness because if you think about it the fact that I have a mind I don't know if anybody else has a mind but theory of mind in psychology shows us that we believe in theory of mine based on our own experience of mind so we assume well everybody else has got a mind it could be it's possible to that other people in

2:45:00

are just automatons designed in that way but that's very incredibly unlikely because based on our own experience of mind so our own out of mind experience or this kind of greater expansion of mind is equally I feel valid proof that that realm exists what we experience that's my thoughts anyway awry so no sunshine in right no idea what you're talking about Fred right minority opinions of different schools of thought yep that's
