you know this whole speak this whole debate of the Koran is uncreated and stuff like this is nonsense this whole debate is pathetic stupid it's caused a lot of unnecessary confusion and it's rendered Muslims exposed Muslims to vulnerabilities they didn't actually have and this is what I said earlier so this whole argument of saying that this this is him the Quran is God but it's not God it just renders Muslims

0:38

incredibly vulnerable it makes no sense because I I have never met a Muslim that actually understood this argument that the Koran is uncreated nobody understands what the hell they're on about they just pretend that they understand what they're reading it's incomprehensible this is why imam show candy writes that this must allow doesn't make any sense you don't have to believe the Quranic what is he uncreated he says you can believe whatever the hell you want if you want on this topic none of it makes any sense that's a mantra Connie and the whole point is because because marshal Kenny was at least just being real he was saying that look believe this or believe

1:17

that who cares it doesn't none of this makes any sense so I would say that people this was never taught by Allah it was never taught by the Prophet it was never taught by the selleth this debate came after the Salaf it came you've got in the time he's popularized in the time of Imam Ahmed although I'm sure other people as well in his time had said it but that is after the Sabbath so I mean this was not something the Prophet taught I always say with that either with with faith keep it simple keep it to what the self believed what the Quran and Sunnah that we just

1:55

believe in Allah you know the basic thing we believe in a lot we believe in to be low Malaika to be water silly well you mean up here and things like this I believe in Revelation in prophets I believe in an afterlife I believe that these kind of things in Batsy like we don't need to all this Creed it trips you it may give you some kind of power and institutionalization but along the way if other people are clever enough they can easily catch you catch Muslims out say that was a perfect thing that I was saying that is so it's no way in the Quran no way in the Sun had this

2:34

belief in see fat you know today like I said this to yours visited by Salafi Brava and I think studying in a senior year Medina University and we had this dialogue and I've had this with other people as well and I've welcomed them for a dialogue on this any person whose learn it I've welcomed them welcomed him or them for a dialogue on this if I prove it from the Quran was some that it doesn't exist so why are you superimposing a belief structure on to Muslims that doesn't exist in the Quran and Sunnah because it's only gonna trip

3:13

Muslims up by saying we believe in these things which are part of God but they're not God and they with God but they're not him sounds very much like the opening you know Gospel of John or whatever but in the beginning there was the word and the Word was with God and the Word was God and what the hell was all of that going on so this is Muslims end up doing a similar thing but the good news is most common Muslims don't know about it it's not handle Allah so this you know this that's on the bright side despite the fact that the clergy have tried to force this one to common Muslims most common Muslims don't have a

3:50

clue about this stuff so so it's sorry there's good news it's good news people spread the good news
