another important question somebody said to me in this debate that oh this guy claims to be a Maliki and this is a question by the way this isn't to do with the debate this is a question I'm just taking some questions somebody said look and there it is again about each month they said oh this guy denies it man he said not they quoting me saying Allah and his messenger Allah and His Messenger everything else is just men and you know that pious one when people

0:36

start to go like all and then they're gonna say what Mufti mocks what do you expect me to do Harbin oh yeah like do you want a medal for that or something why are you being so dumb and stupid they go oh everything else is the opinion of men right so in that case oh how can you be a Maliki I'm Malou a little medina I'm Malou Ali Medina is men this is the problem isn't it we've got like the voice pieces that those who

1:15

want to be the voice pieces are carrying the kind of microphone I like they like from the sunshine group you know they like from that kind of bottom set in schools you know like the we just like just color in it's like I read on this t-shirt he said I would explain this to you but I haven't got the patience nor the crayons you know coloring in today we're gonna color in the word son in the color in [Laughter]

1:52

honestly these people yes Salaam look those of you that don't know mean the Maliki method there is something known as the practice of the people of Medina but the inherited practice upon which Imam Malik found people this by the way this word Almudena what Imam Malik would say the Amal the action was upon it wasn't this wasn't the culture of just men this was the Sunnah of the Prophet the Sunnah of the Prophet Imam Ilyich

2:31

himself said that when they asked him he said elfin and elfin I have transmissions from a thousand different people taking it from a thousand different people taking it from the Prophet in this city and he said and then I have a chain one transmission even the golden chain Molly kunafa enigma deemed by Buhari the most authentic chain he said but this is just one on one and I've got a thousand people saying it from a thousand he said I have bhulaiyaa elephant an elephant I have Bou alayhim in wide and wide that a thousand from a

3:10

thousand so these thousand people telling me they took it from their forefathers who took it from the Prophet directly is more beloved to me then this one chain this one-on-one in this hadith and he said that this one-on-one yinz demon vania day he will snatch the Deen from right in front of you it will snatch the deed so look this amalu Ali Medina which sometimes some people have called a Jamaa anima Dina this is not each man this is not orifice like that this is Sunnah this is from The Messenger of Allah and if you don't

3:48

believe me read goddamnit the books on a soul when it came to look they said as God the yard and all these people said Amano al-madinah must be the man cool at vara it must be the apparent things which the the collective community witnessed from the Prophet there is no room for each D had no room for each T heard then there's a second aspect so this is the main thing of AMLO Hannah Medina so for example the Prophet used to recite aloud in certain priest everybody witnessed this they then they

4:27

witnessed it from them it was from the amel that the Prophet never read bismillah r-rahman r-rahim when when leading in the prayers allowed it was from the Amman he never read that aloud now yes this brick so we know that if you begin prayer this is how the Prophet used to begin Allah Akbar al hamdu lillahi rabbil aalameen no did he say silently though this becomes an HT Hadi issue okay this becomes an interesting ugly because

5:04

true we agree that the Amman the collected practice was he never said this aloud but maybe he said it in his mind or maybe he said it inaudibly you can't negate that cop i can i can do my HD hard i can i can assume so this second part which is the assumption level the HT higher the element is a bolt-on to hablo al-madinah this was accepted by some of the Bernardi and Iraqi Maliki and I respect that point there was many amongst them they discussed this if normal tab and a Bihari discusses until Wahab Albert daddy

5:42

if North SR discusses it and all these can allay thei discussable for agile lazy all these people discuss this okay there from the birth daddy Iraqi Maliki ax the other Maliki it didn't really like this they didn't accept them okay but what they all accept as a forger is the things which are undeniable are perceptible so you perceive them okay they are apparent that is am la almudena it is from the Sunnah of the messenger of allah so when they said how was the azan done that is from the sunnah it was perceptible everybody inherited it how much water did the prophet used to

6:22

useful who do he used to use a scale called a mood that was inherited that practice where is the prophet's mosque it is inherited everybody witnessed e where is the prophet's tomb it is inherited as a practice and the Prophet do certain things that they all that people this is inherited this this is a Medina so don't you dare test me in my understanding of the math of the method of the school of Medina

6:58

don't you did Allah as I said before people Janaki and rock now raise your arguments I'll burn them to the ground as dog and I've quoted him before saying that fella Cooper ah diligent on say calm me but the heavens haven't messed with this level of craziness angelica rockin Accardo toward our

7:35

nominee not if I don't burn your arguments to the ground people then you can change my name but this is the point so don't you you know try to attack my knowledge of the Maliki method that's two people criticizing that right so Allah so yeah so right any other let's take some rapid questions and then we'll wrap this up people what are we looking Isaac fifth only no this is because what I'm trying to say is people we see they

8:14

they will they they don't like the fact that I'm Maliki right thing because they think oh you know let this is how people work let's discredit him let's discredit everything let us make him an isolated target so we can so he doesn't have any legitimacy
