you know I heard chef this few scholars now share humble chef shaadi al Masri you know apart from the fact that chefs atomosphere I'm just awesome I am very I mean some of these scholars look what it is I'm very disappointed in their approach really because these people outright called me a car film they said okay probable kafir they said he's probably a Kaffir probably the best lawyer in the world Carlsberg what he should have done is finished that talk of his by saying sponsored by Carlsberg probably he said

0:39

this guy's probably an apostate this ain't your dad's Deen mate you understand in the words of akbar allah body johan cometa sake was the money madam me those that can eradicate me from islam Zamani madam me who the hamsa is amana the man is a Omni you can't

1:15

choke me out of Islam Zola Gallo put all the pressure you want you understand that pressure will come will help you in your own helping me to go to the bathroom mate it's not gonna help you here this you can't be saying your dad's knee you're chucking out the Dean right I'm here and I'm here to stay so tough apostate god complex I'll sit down think they're on some divine throne chucking people out of Islam shame on you this is

1:55

how you speak to other people but you could throw them out of Islam you know seriously I I tell you the audacity of these people surprises me my life and I'm serious in that sense Johan cometa Sergei was a man named good hum say hey Sam on the money say honey it's okay so keep Mach these words that this I don't care about all of you can get together and put all the pressure you want this world know you ain't gonna eradicate me from Islam like that this is by the grace of God that we are on this faith okay nothing to do

2:35

with you so anyway but this him and share hamza Maqbool they both kind of made recently some hunter Maqbool once again i'm disappointed he said the same thing that this is qu4 and you know what's interesting people they said that oh this anybody who denies a line of the Howey is a Kaffir the Creed of the Howey this this book of how is a Kaffir Wow not anybody who denies the Quran anybody

3:09

who denies the Howie's a Kaffir monger this is like this is your love not the Quran anybody who denies the line of the how is a kafir that's what Shep shoddy said in his interview Wow first of all it lets a mere problematized at least five different points of Taha we is he a kafir and he rejected them and beginning with his definition of Iman because he doesn't go with the Jammu including action beginning to using with words like describing a las Kadeem they've rejected they rejected these notions so

3:48

secondly the inta how here there's several things these things refuting the Huaraz do you call the huar each calf here and these things refuting the martyrs illa do you call them kaffir these things refuting the she I've you call the Shiar cafe so you declare everybody care for all of a sudden do you write where'd you even get this from the creed of analyst Sunnah of a sha DS and these people he said a menagerie the creed of a Charisse is that land know that Nanook affair adult Abela we do not do the clear of our no table so we do you even what book over and how he isn't even an a shoddy text what are you even Honorable like we do people even get their basic thing from

4:28

Oh amantha how he said it anybody who denies the Howey so what if amantha how he said he he's writing this almost at least over two hundred and fifty years after the Prophet why is he such a great Hodja all of a sudden you know we don't accept him in anything else but all of a sudden he said this this must be the Word of God and by the way they used this verse of the Quran I heard both of them say this they say Allah says about Jesus in the Quran where you can live on NASA field Matthew what Catalan well you cuddle him on NASA field Matthew well Carolyn and he will speak to people from in the cradle and as a grown man and Kyle and Carol and

5:06

check this out they say Carol means an old man in hurry she hums I'm a bull at least had some decency to kind of rein it in a bit like he said oh it means about 40 years old what's his name Chad eleemosynary just went off and said it means an old man because I think in cloacal Arabic today they might use it as an old man well guess what this is an Inc local Arabic mate okay this is an Arabic and have you read any of the toughest here on this this opinion because what they're saying is that how can Jesus talk to people as a mature man that means he's gonna come back and talk to them as a mature man this is what they're trying to say well

5:44

I've got news for you mate gal yes it can mean 40 years of age yes it can mean 30 years of age and onwards what does cattle mean in Arabic it means indle Kemal when your body has reached a it's complete state so the youth is now over you are a complete man and many Olimar said that begins at 30 some said it begins at 40 it doesn't matter it's not a set age it's like saying middle age it doesn't begin with a set age Cal is like when you've become Carmel okay that's what it means there's

6:20

a the poem of Elijah that you die hakushin's I mean Jaco kaboom sheriff on the mahzarin be a mean empty Muktha hey Lou McDowell ooh what does that mean caramel so the this thing is known and what does Redeemer Rossi say Allah from the ancient classical Arabs now what does Dino Rossi say he says and he's one of the heads of a Sharia peda he says that we believe Jesus reached Corolla on earth when he was here that's Tina Rossi saying and they go see he says in the Quran anybody

6:58

who denies he's a Kaffir you know then this is why scholarship has failed as people well I disappointing scholarship all of the tafseer mentioned that this that they accept and you know this opinion that they saying they actually mentioned the first person to say this opinion his name was father Lupino Hussein al bajillion me suppori he is from around / he dies in 280 something he Jerry so he's over 200 in so many years after the Prophet none of the self they mentioned this was the opinion of father lebbe no single bajillion isa puri who said that this verse could refer to Jesus coming

7:36

back India his second coming before him nobody said that this wasn't how they understood the Quran for Dino Rossi these people themselves are saying look we believe Jesus reached Kahuna in this in this earth so look what so this is why it's discipline now you see what I'm up against you know it's amazing and they say these clear verses in the Quran things like look the verse of the Quran that says over the one what I mean alec is happy illallah you mean under be problem all

8:14

t-yong that there is none from the the people of the book except he will believe in it or him before his death now they disagree on who these eight or him or whatever is going back to so some people say is going back to the the Christian himself so meaning that before that Christian or dies as he's dying he will realize that you know what I was on was false and other people said he's going back to Jesus some people probably said he brings the opinion is going back to the Prophet Muhammad SAW Omaha you sent them now even if you take this to mean

8:52

Second Coming first of all who said it doesn't mean to say it means the Christian if not a bar said that it's transmitted from him this is if McCarthy says is Asahi transmission Mujahid said that she heard him the whole ship said that Muhammad have no idea you had a fear said that many the hawk said that all these anima said that no is talking about the Christian right to say Jesus doesn't make sense in fact the recitation of oh babe niqab reads problem ot him before their death and him is plural it's not English him

9:31

home in our week were read here as him is them in Arabic so is Jesus ain't them Jesus is talking about the Christians because it doesn't make sense look what a metallic there is no Christian no Christian except let's take their reading for a moment there is no Christian except he will believe in it before Jesus is death when he comes back but that doesn't make sense because when Jesus comes back most Christians that have lived and died have already died over the 2000 years so it doesn't make any sense that means only the Christians that read Jesus in his second coming but not all these for

10:10

two thousand years all of these would have already died so the true understanding here was that upon death they will realize that this was not the truth okay then they bring this other verse of the Quran to say or alive speaking about Jesus and then follows on by saying that were in a hula I'll Melissa and it is a the knowledge of the hour they say oh this means and Jesus is the sign of the hour so when Jesus comes again he will be the second first of all allies and said that one of them verse 18 say Hasan al-basri said that it is talking about the quran the quran is a sign of the hour once again if nigiri the pub or a brings that some people believed it's

10:50

muhammed sallalahu I leave Salem second okay thirdly let's go with your interpretation let's just go with your yo-yo tape this is Jesus that he is referring to Jesus but let's go with it as it's red what in who that I'm Jesus is the knowledge of the hour doesn't say sign then say la alum says la alum Elmen lisa is the knowledge so what Jesus has knowledge about the end of time is that what I mean they give us a yeah but knowledge here means it's the sign it's the mean whoa what's all this interpretation I thought you said God is

11:28

so clearly said this in the Quran so look this people is my summary of saying look these people quoting all these things have contradictions them quoting this being motivated doesn't make sense because they reject themselves so many motivated alleged claims them saying each man that scholars reject this and they disagree amongst themselves I'm saying this is in the books of Ikeda is interesting because what about the Maddie do you know who said the Maddie was motivated even a Hodja said he was motivated show candy brings more hadith for the mackney then he does for Jesus he brings 50 hadith regarding the Maddie

12:08

if Dajjal Haytham me a Sahar we a safari me Albers mg all these people say the Maddie is motor water yet it's not into Howie you know your sacred the Howie if you reject the line of the Howie it's not in the early books of a theta of a shoddy Creed oh this one big problem so this is the so the point is looked I gave all this backdrop to and I really

12:47

went on today about this because I felt it created such a discussion on line I wanted people to understand where I'm coming from why I feel this is because it reads exactly from the Gospels and then the detail of this because the big question is why is he actually coming because then it looks like Muslims have tried too hard to find a reason for his coming oh because he's gonna kill the job but then the gel just died straight away as soon as he yeah I mean you know if that was all healers why not the Madi just kill him or why not the Muslims just get together and kill him

13:27

well why create you know this was the the big fear that as soon as Jesus comes he just melts I mean that sounds of it it's bit of an anti-climax isn't it like oh here's this great rest you know this great showdown between the great titans but as soon as he comes Jesus dead it's like yeah should have at least put up a bit of a fight like people do know this it's more disappointing than it's more disappointing than then some of these boxing matches what's his name mayweather big fight of mayweather

14:07

everybody stayed up to watch i don't actually follow boxing but those fights are disappointing so you think well look come on they should be some awesome showdown but no so it seems that muslims are almost trying really hard to make up a reason for why jesus has to come back because oh he has to kill the jews and then the rocks will stop but why does he have to you know what is all this about hating jews all of a sudden like why do we have to hate Jews I'm like I don't get this like it's really all of a sudden and Jesus is a Jew by the way Jesus a Jewish you know it doesn't make any sense and Jesus spent his whole life

14:45

speaking about love and compassion and turn the other cheek and no you know I don't want to fight and all of a sudden he comes back and now he's this kind of like a force everybody to be Muslim and I'm here and I'm gonna rule over Jew and Gentile and I'm this kind of judge and by the way nobody's faith counts anymore and and all these things so look so this is why and by animals will become vegetarians and all animals are safe except pigs because Jesus is going around killing pigs which makes no sense obviously why he's killing pigs but anyway he's killing pigs but what does

15:24

Asahi Hadid say that Imam Malik brings that Jesus when he saw pigs he was really peaceful with pigs so you see when you look at this and the Sun so look my point isn't to I want to retry something does this one when you look at this to sum this up when we look at the overall message of these I hadith we find it conflicting with sorry when we look at the details of these hadith we find them conflicting with the overall message of the Quran with the overall message of the Sunnah

16:04

and with the established principles in Islam we saw so that's an issue secondly these things are established through hobro are hard they are not part of a leader the way people have made them okay so just to kind of establish just to kind of summarize these points thirdly these narrations contradict each other massively things like once Muslims conquer Constantinople the jail will come and Jesus will be here but then that's happened hundreds of years ago other narrations saying oh that the job was already the other naration saying no the job will be born later on other

16:42

narrations saying oh the the Prophet thought that the job was a Jew and then him saying don't worry I'll take care of him not mentioning Jesus other narrations saying every prophet warned about this dejar but then this the journal is such an anti-climax because the moment Jesus comes he just melts like snot like salt so it's like was that it really you know that was all that was gonna take and so so when you start looking at all of these things and all these miracles and then and also the Christian narrative of Mount Sinai Damascus all of sudden Damascus is interesting why Damascus become so interesting once the Muslims move the

17:22

capital offer a few decades to Damascus all of a sudden this hadith everything's happening in Damascus all of a sudden you know it's interesting that whoa okay you know but when the Prophet is asked by the angel jibreel what is faith he doesn't mention Jesus when he's asked about the hour what are the signs of the away doesn't mention Jesus so these are some things that I've kind of highlighted in showing okay
