Should I debate Quranists?

for 200 years were people not praying you see islam was taught from parent to child and in community and this is how it got transmitted by the living tradition and so this is how we learn things like salah this is how we learn things like song the main features of islam and people disagreed i get that wherever interpretation wherever there was interpretation people disagreed but this is how it was taught now i do uh advise and advocate to embrace the tradition of islam and i feel that this is the inherited tradition is not in that sense about these things corrupt it's not like the

five praise for example is not a corruption it's actually the living tradition but let's say if somebody didn't accept that if somebody said to me look mostly i don't accept any of this because i can't trust it and i feel you know the this kind of quran is as i'm assuming the archetypal kind of quran is now or the stereotypical sorry quranis i is he fine okay if they want my view i will give it but you see arguing doesn't get us anywhere because to be honest nobody has ever said in an argument oh wow you know what you beat me so bad in that argument i'm gonna believe you

that's never happened in human history all that happens is you can humiliate someone in an argument and what happens they just hate you even more okay you might win it like i might debate someone and i might be able to mesmerize them because of certain things and and run rings around them and humiliate them now i might win that so people might say wow you know mostly you know did a number on this guy blah blah blah and it serves my ego it really massages that but this person is just walked away hating my guts and hates everything that i stand for and that argument even more so this is why when imam malik was asked

shall we debate over the sunnah he said he said he said if you they ask you you just answer but don't argue over it don't cause it to become a a something that spreads this kind of animosity so that's for the arguing angle so i would say that you know it's not if somebody wants a genuine conversation that's fine and you could give your side they could give their side you could think about it they could think about it but if it's a debate i don't think these really uh yield results and and i get it look you know quranists uh in that stereotypical sense i get it

as well they too you know a lot of you see one of the problems is we don't look you know the prophet salallahu salem he looked at people through a lens of compassion it doesn't matter whether they were kuffar mushrikeen they were machusi nasarani yahoodi he understood that this is a human who's who's trying to come at it with some in his version of integrity you know that they brought the the dead body of the jewish woman who's going the prophet stood up out of and out of respect and they were like what's the prophet doing standing up jewish

the prophet looked and he said it's a soul you know where's your human compassion so the point is that you see you have to understand that even people who disagree with you salafi be they uh wahhabi will be they she are be they whatever group brill video when the jamaat islam whatever you want to see

they everybody in their own way is trying to come from a position of love for the deen and you have to understand the angle because once you see from compassion you realize okay i see where you come even if you feel they've missed the mark but you see they're not coming at it from this great propaganda to trick everyone whether they be salafi shia you know qurani anything they they are still coming at it from a place of love now the qurani quranist is coming at it from this angle that look

these because some hadith are definitely made up which some definitely are everybody knows that we've got books of fabricated hadith so therefore because there is doubt so the safe side is that let's not we can't attribute any of this to the prophet because there's too much doubt in all of this and this has been used as a power of manipulation and whatever etc etc etc and let's throw this all out and with it they've thrown out of most of them because they assume fit was also part of hadith or built on hadith as it is today because of the salafi movement

so you see but in the past it was never like this is why in the past where were the quranists in the past because pre this if you predate the salafia fek was never built from hadith it was built from the living tradition so you never had this argument so it's only with the selfies they start to build from hadith then people start to problematize the hadith and therefore say let's throw everything out the window so the argument isn't to me um it isn't as convincing as they think it is you see this is to me it isn't as convincing because to me there are many examples that i can show from philip

that it would be impossible for people sects that are so ad averse and adverse to each other like shia sunni to all agree on certain factors of fear that that would be impossible they hated each other unless this was the living tradition you know you triangulate it and you arrive at hmm i i get it now so but i do understand that look these people too are trying to come from a position of love so let's not you see it shouldn't be about trying to bash them you know let's get them in a corner and i want to bash them and humiliate them because that's that's going to make them just

hate this even more so yeah that's that's what i'd like to say i think it's important
