Yeah, I'll speak a bit about this. You see, Khabib is a phenomenon and I'd like to even though I'm not so much into sports, but I I I really I think it's important to just say some words about the phenomenon.
Uh so that's something I'd like to speak about. Uh says, "Is it true you're a vampire? Hell yeah. [clears throat] Let there be blood. [laughter] Hell yeah. What? When do you sleep? What is sleep, dad? What is sleep? Sleep is for the mere immortal. [laughter] Rock black, you're doing it. You're doing it. Much love for the super chat.
You've asked a question. I'll come to that uh in just a moment. I'd also like to discuss the terror incident or the uh beheading incident in um in France. the teacher Samuel Pati and just the and their president um sorry the prime minister uh Macron his reaction and then in turn the Muslim reaction to that of boycott so I'll share a few words on that I'll take some
of your uh live questions of course of course that's most important Also, I'd like to share a few words on our below. [laughter] One of our belows, none other than Chudri. Chri. All right. You ch you you [laughter] right.
So, Chri Chri Humpty Dumpty. [laughter] none other than Mulvi Hamza Wed Makpool uh from state side you know this one state side so I'll be sharing a few words on him and he's um u basically commenting on me once again you see these people can't be they just can't rest can they you know [laughter] no chain you know no satina this.
Hey, [laughter] in the those of you that know the musta, the ninkle rather of the udu speaking world, the chalune, [laughter] [gasps] the chalune uh symptoms, you know, the chalune are basically unfortunately [laughter] these the wrong type of small worms you know they happen on the other side.
So the chalun syndrome. So these people can't sit still [laughter] you know there the so so they have to comment on me and so I'll sh so obviously once you oblige and you know my beloved then I must respond.
I not I must but I' I'd like to I'd like to respond. So that I'll be taking a look at towards the end in the masala segment. Masala segment. So what is going on? Miy please make part three of Sahil Bkari. Whoa. Part three. [laughter] Right. [snorts]
Right. So Zed says which civil war was referring to when he said they would not ask uh before the fitna occurred. Didn't he die around a decade before the third fitna? I'm not sure what fitna you're referring to. You see it's difficult sometimes like they you know in the time of the salv they would say the fitna like the great unrest the the kind of turbulence what exactly are they referring to as as the first one as the
second one as the third one sometimes it's quite arbitrary it's not a a clear you know not everybody's in agreement in what they call the greatest fitnner Um so so for example um [clears throat] some people refer to the fitna of man with the murder of man as one of the great fitnas because following his murder everything just goes downhill almost or it begins at least to go downhill.
Some people may consider the uh fitna of Hussein uh as maybe as the first fitna or at least the great fitna because of what happened. Some people may refer to uh Abdullahbn Zub's martyrdom as the great fitna because after that what happens is the any true opposition is kind of crushed.
Uh because even though Hussein goes up north, I've covered that in my segment on Kbala. He Hussein isn't really a um a strong opposition to the state. He's maybe he's a strong personality uh you know a very powerful personality. He is unquestionably but he's not actually from a military perspective a real threat.
He may be ideologically a threat but he's not a military threat there and then like he doesn't have a state under him and things like this. Whereas Abdullahbn Zub does he has at one point the the land which is in his obedience or that pledge and allegiance to him is far greater that territorially speaking he outnumbers the actual state.
So when he's crushed that is a huge fitna for people. Plus, it's the attacking of the Kaa. They catapult the Kaa. Some people consider that uh the when Yazid unleashes the army on Medina. Often not spoken about, but that is often deemed the a great fitna. So, people use that. Then there's also in um there's a rebellion of uh Abdman Ash uh against
the Omeayads but primarily against Yusf and by extension the state. He's a governor of Iraq. During that rebellion, um many great people, many great uh many great scholars of the Cele, you know, they partake in that uprising, which is interesting because usually a lot of the scholars don't partake in the wars.
Uh but here they do clearly. I mean there's like a substantial number of the people fighting were people scholar of the scholarly class which usually never happens. Uh so that is deemed by some and and they almost win you know it gets to the point that the Omeaya dynasty dynasts feel that they've lost this this war but then suddenly it the vicissitudes of fate people it swings back and and and then there's the you know the Imam Zade thing is considered you know the the that war zin
is consider so it's not clear which war people like great war this great unrest scholars are sometimes referring to because in their mind they have like one two three but that might refer to different ones so yeah I hope that helps and then obviously as time goes by there's other great calamities as well um right what is your ah right where's that question gone right oh here it is rock black says what is your advice on healing the inner child and also what is your advice on growing
up children as in on take it you know it's a tricky one if we're going to be real I mean first of all let's take the the inner child I think we ultimately are an extension of our inner child.
I think to a great part that is uh unquestionably true that we are really our child with all the I mean not our as in we are ourselves as children but with adage and the problem is that as children you are incredibly vulnerable so you're not this stronger person that you are as an adult so often you know it's like your you're made of glass.
That's what a child fundamentally is, you know, and they and then they are then molded that glasses to fit a certain shape which is their environment. It's first and foremost their immediate surroundings which is family um parents you know firstly for the for the most part and then other environments like the maybe where they live the area the school uh their contact with you know it's so
circumst I mean it's the circumstances determine so much of what goes on with that child And it can and you know it could be a very difficult it's it's it's it's strange because childhood is for some people such a wonderful experience and for some people it's such a tragic horrible experience that you know they and it's it both sides [laughter] they they go on to still remain enigmatic because the wonderful childhood uh sometimes times you find that those
um those kind of pleasures not pleasures ain't the right word but those comforts are not extended in adulthood because you see that person the child who is um you know always let's say loved and taken care of so well and given every not everything but many things they want and but as an adult the world doesn't favor them the way the immediate parents did or the uh the way the immediate environment did as a child sorry parents or family or whoever so that is an
immense struggle because the person then although I think in many ways the the the the loved child has goes into the world steps into the world with much greater confidence [snorts] and a um a greater sense of ethics I feel and also um in a much more humane way as well.
Like I feel that they probably have much more humanism embedded into them. But it doesn't have to stay that way because the world now doesn't treat them with the same love. So maybe the struggle that ensues could flip everything on its head or maybe it retains it. And on the other side, you have people who've suffered a tragic uh childhood, you know, immense suffering, survival.
Um, and in some way they spend the rest of their lives trying to escape, [laughter] their childhood. [laughter] You're bringing back memories now. Yeah. And I think that um that and people block out so much of their childhood like uh subconsciously and and for these people I think this camp of people you see what's interesting is that on the plus side it gives them I feel a much greater sense
of survival in a very in at times a very brutal world that these people are in many ways much more machaveillian [snorts] and they've you know they see they're very skeptical about things they sometimes they you know to they may seek to overcompensate and I don't mean overcompensate in this is as a bad way but sometimes I feel some of these people may go on to you know achieve great success because they have something to prove like they they want
to kind of it's after not having had anything as childhood. So sometimes you see some people who suffered maybe poverty or suffered things they yearn for richness and on many occasion I mean obviously many occasions they don't achieve it but on some occasions they do that's because they have this kind of thirst to to prove a point to the world.
Um, so I I it's weird because would we be today where we are if it wasn't for our childhood, including the terrible parts. [laughter] I think about myself sometimes [laughter] and the immense amount of counseling that I will need.
[laughter] But on the bright side, you know, the thick skin it gives you, the um the kind of stoic nature. I always I feel that my sense of stoicism that you know I [snorts] it comes from um just having faced the kind of things I did in childhood and you kind of just learn because you don't have [laughter] anything to look forward to anymore.
So I think what happens is you just take every day as it comes as a child and I think it also really boosted my imagination because as a child I think you learn to live in an imaginative world and you your imagination kind of it becomes so vast and so you kind of create a world inside you and and I think that that has many you know in adulthood that has any plus points.
[laughter] But I suppose each side has a struggle and I I think it is good to to be able to maybe to be able to bridge that to that inner child definitely and I think sometimes it can be very disturbing you know I I'll share something with you I feel that you know when was it was just in the recent past as in the past couple of years I um I was I was speaking to um psychologist very you know
um incredibly [clears throat] well trained and senior and professor and somebody that uh he has a lot of skills in hypnotism and he's a practitioner and I was very skeptical and I was like ah you know come on does this really [laughter] you know you hypnotize people come on can you really hypnotize people and and he said to me, "I'll hypnotize you if you want." So I said, "Well, go on then." Being myself, I was like, "Yeah, go on then." And but I had to comply.
I had to kind of like I I'm not meant to fight it. Okay. So I was like, "All right, cool. I won't fight it." And I kind of went along with the the whole steps and he went through this thing and you know the meditation aspect and and then he you know we went along and he's taking me you're walking this here and there and you can see this and and and it it it's it was amazing I have to say but at you see at one point he took me back to childhood and it didn't last this long.
I I think it may the whole thing may have lasted about 10 minutes 15 minutes. I don't think it was that long, but at one towards the end of it, he took me to and I didn't know he was going to do this [laughter] and I don't know whether he knew he was going to do it because it was just like off the cuff thing. And he said, well, he took me back to childhood and he said, you know, you're in childhood, you see yourself, you're there and this and I have to say it really shook me like I was uh, you know, I was quite disturbed when I came out like because I just felt
really um it was really kind of moving but in a way that I wasn't because I wasn't expecting any kind of uh you know like a very deep level turbulence. I wasn't expecting I was just thinking oh we're going to be kind of okay hypnotism and yeah yeah yeah and I really I think for a good few weeks after I was kind of a bit I I didn't really um but I don't know it's not like I don't I just didn't know how to react.
Um that's the but it's interesting in the last maybe couple of years I definitely uh came to terms with a lot of things from childhood and revisited them mentally and stuff like this and it is very opening. It's very kind of soothing to be able to do that. And what's interesting is uh sometimes some um you know like sometimes you could watch certain things.
I I tell you I watched I have mentioned this before but I watched that um TV series called This Is Us and I didn't I was not expecting this. And this is when it hits you when you're not expecting things. But for some reason it really shook [laughter] my childhood core. I don't know why.
Like and really did. And for I remember watching binge watching that and for a while after I was just like, [laughter] shell shocked. But in a way it helped me come to terms with a lot of things and it kind of ironed out all these. But it was really good. It was a therapeutic process, I guess. But yeah, and and I think in many ways it's it could be unnerving like you don't know what monsters will leap out at you from if you reconnect.
But yeah, I suppose why not if you can face it. The other part of the question, how do we bring children up? I honestly feel that uh it's something we all to some extent wing it. uh you know we're not really given a kind of uh manual and even if we are we don't know whether that will work for us. So I would say that really just to seriously I think look you just go with your heart that's when it comes to your own kids that in having that kind of bond and the bond is more qualitative.
It doesn't have to be quantitative as much. Uh, and by that I mean it doesn't have to be sometimes however you measure quantitative but it's more qualitative and I I feel that that grounds decent human beings and you know creates ethical people obviously young people but they will become grown-ups in the future. Yeah, definitely.
And I feel that it um it you know, even when it comes to Islamic stuff, you see, to me, I I'm I'm a MUI and I've got children and I don't you see, I'm not about trying to ideologically dogmatize them. To me, let them just grow up naturally.
And age will come when they will learn about you know ideas and ideological stuff and you know whether in this approach of mine is the approach [laughter] whether it's correct I don't know but to me it feels right. So I guess yeah we'll have to see. [laughter] Yeah. So uh I I hope that helps to some extent.
Let's take do a mind trap with Yaser Kadi. Yeah. Uh, absolutely. I'd love to get Yaser Khadi on, but I don't think Yaser Khadi would come on. You see, a lot of people say to me, "My get such and such uh people on um Right. Right. People say, you know, uh Hannah said Randall is the best character." [laughter] Yeah, they're they're all good.
I mean, there's they're good. this different but I uh yeah it's definitely I advise people to watch it if you haven't watched it that is this is us but it depends what you're into right coming back to this question um a lot of people say to me why don't you get such and such on Mind trap why don't you get such and such the truth is a lot of these people don't want to come on to Mind Trap with me um you're better off I'm better off dealing with like academics or you [snorts] know freethinking people who are not so
um concerned about the mob. Um yeah because it's it's interesting who controls who who controls who. You would imagine that a lot of these uh imams and shs they control their following but it's actually to a great extent in reverse. Their following controls them and some of them just break out a bit with uh [laughter] somebody said do a mind trap with Yasar Khadi and call it Return of the Big D.
[laughter] Yeah. And so people like Yas Khadi or these people, they definitely wouldn't want to come on for whatever reason. Maybe they feel it would lend legitimacy to me. Maybe they feel we don't want to make him more famous. [laughter] Right? So that could be a reason that people think look I don't want to make muy ab more famous.
[laughter] Well like it or not a famous hog baba [laughter] right so the but the thing is that yeah so I think that sometime sometimes they feel oh we can't share a platform with them because it would legitimize their views it would extend a legitimation which is weird because they're happy to share a platform with Christians with non-Muslims with atheists with agnostics
with you know uh but me apun it's like no no no no deviant deviant with a capital with a big d [laughter] the uh other reason is and this is one that they won't own up to I honestly feel this is actually one of the bigger reasons but they will play this reason down that is that they are insecure pure and intimidated by me.
They feel that in a discussion they may come out looking um slightly not slightly they may come out looking weak in a discussion with me or maybe I might um and that may be many angles here. One angle may be that they come out looking weak or that maybe I might throw certain questions on them and challenge them and they won't be able to answer it on the spot.
So it will make them look really like what the hell you know our great sheh couldn't answer you know Mu's questions. So, I actually feel that is one of the main reasons they don't come on. Although they won't uh be honest, you know, it's like there's this guy on Facebook. I don't know how I don't think he's that learned. Like he's not a she or anything, but maybe he's like somebody who's read some things and he goes around acting like ah.
[laughter] His name is Mas Vahi or Vahi or he spells it vahi or something. I don't know. But something like this. I don't know what origin he is, but I'm presuming [snorts] the way he writes his name. He's either Arab or of Middle Eastern kind of uh origin. I've never seen a picture of him, so I don't know what he looks like, but he will do all these things on on Facebook and, you know, and he he criticizes people and he criticized me on several occasions and people tagged me in and I kind of said to him, "Look, why don't you just come
on Mind Trap with me?" And they're like, "No, no," and and he's like, "Oh, you know, I'm sorry. I'm a shy I'm not a shy person. I'm not a public person. you know, but then and then he'll go back to publicly [laughter] criticizing me and you think, you know, what the hell is that about? And him and and and who was it recently?
There was uh I think Dr. Shi or or whoever bunch of these people they will say oh um it's yeah you don't yeah don't you know you shouldn't go on a public platform with him because publicly they will say uh I I don't want to extend any legitimation to this person I don't want people to think he's legitimate
sales [laughter] [gasps] does your dad sit on the seat of legitimizing people. [laughter] So my point isn't about I couldn't give a damn about who they are or whatever, but my point is if you're going to criticize me, why not just come on the platform and have a discussion with me, you know, just just say it. I won't I I can promise you I won't swear at you.
I won't you know, obviously, you know, I'm not going to Nobody's going to attack you. You're online for God's sake. Um, and just ask me the questions. Let me ask you questions. Let's just have a discussion. But, but no, never, you know. [laughter] So, I've there's been a few super chats. Let me just get to them people. Kiwi Rockstar, you're doing it. You're doing it. Muya Mashia, why do Salafi Sunnis hate you so much?
[laughter] I don't know, man. And you, you know, when up when all kinds of people hate you, you got to be doing something right. [laughter] That's the way I see it. That That's the way That's the way it is, right? You're doing it. Much love. Much love, people. You're doing it.
Uh, let me just go. you know that uh John's poem that that you know it's just one art that I've mastered that whosoever you meet make sure [laughter] they they hate you when when you're finished.
That's uh somebody said no audio. No, don't say that at this stage. I've been talking for so long. I'm sure it can't be no audio. How are people uh Abraham happy Diwali? You do is it Diwali? Somebody said Macron is the president.
Oh, Shukran. Shukran. I said prime minister, right? But I will get to that. That's just in a while. Just look in there's a super chat. I just want to answer that. Mhm. Tell us a story like I Abu Hanifh and the drunkard. [laughter] Brad, you're doing it. Brad, you're doing it. Huh? Or from your time abroad?
My time abroad. I mean, there's so many uh incidents. I'm sure I must have You know, there's so many things in life that happen in a way that you think that, you know, it was just destined.
[laughter] It's just it's just life, isn't it? It's just life. And and it's been the same thing when I've been um studying abroad. The way things have unfolded, it's like if I was to plan them, they couldn't have worked as well. That's how well they worked. It's just it it is amazing I have to. But it's been you know even before I remember check this out. I remember once right I um this is here before I went I was part of a um a college I mean I was I was in a college uh at that time actually it was a sixth form right so
and we didn't really care much for education unfortunate unfortunately don't don't follow in those footsteps we were just chilling yeah we're just dossing around and um me and my friend. So a proper obviously real tight at that time although now I haven't seen him unfortunately in over a decade I haven't actually but at that time we were proper and so what happens is we all get into trouble [laughter] and the teacher realizes that the weakest link in this class and you know
this is the kind of time I had moved towards religion I try started Ed praying. I'd started uh taking these things quite like as in they were very meaningful. I was learning when I say learning it maybe it wasn't proper authentic learning but in my own way I was learning about Islam. I was very keen to talk about but we were still up to a lot of dossing actually but uh so the the teacher realizes that um okay he wants to tell us all off punish us here I can't remember we did something we used to do some wacko stuff you know in six but anyway um he wants to punish us
all but he realizes that most of us just don't give a damn and my mate was the only one who used to totally freely be petrified of his of his father. I mean rightfully so. I don't mean this in a bad way. His father was a very strict man. He's passed away. May Allah give him an elevated mat.
Um and this friend of mine his name used to call him Jay. His name was Jiangia. So what my what the teacher does is decides to just tell his father. I mean that was so unfair. But you think, well, but he realizes nobody really gives a damn in this class. They [laughter] what can we do with them? But that guy, he we're going to call his dad, just him because he actually, you know, he's like he trembled.
So I mean, not himself, but from his father. He's obviously very afraid of his father. So they said to teacher said to him, "You can't come back. Everybody else can stay." even though he's not even the main uh culprit, but still he can't come back to class unless his father comes with him. That's just so unfair. So I was like, you know what, being the hero, [laughter] I was like, well, if he goes, I walk out as well.
[laughter] Teacher's like, [laughter] they're like, who the hell is this guy? They're like, well, you get lost as well then. So I was like, "Yeah, fine. Let's do it." I was like, "You know what? [snorts] If you if if you you know, if they kick you out, they kick me out." So like, "Yeah." So we're like, "Yeah, I don't give a damn." [laughter] And we walk out like a boss.
And then we realize as we as we walk out the gates, what are we going to do? [laughter] So we're like how are we going to get a position in a different place or you know there was there were these kind of obviously you you had different training as well then in place vocational kind of colleges as well and but we're thinking you know it's been we're like past a term and who how are we going to get in and oh it's going to be a hassle and so [snorts] we go to this center this advisory center and they tell us look oh there's a few places this and that why don't you they tell us about so they they you know they phone around trying
to find out certain places and they tell us oh look there's this center that's just down the road why don't you go there so we're like and this is the same day [laughter] [gasps] so we're going a proper like honestly I I I'm ashamed of we we didn't have the right attitude in life and stuff like that um but anyway we we go to this place so we go there and we sit down and we're like Yeah, you know, like, oh, that center's told us, you know, and it made a few phone calls and it's kind of told us about different centers and the advisory uh place and it told us to come here.
So, we go there and little do we know, but that place that center had just accepted two new applicants that day, [snorts] but and they were awaiting them. [laughter] So along comes us. We walk in, me and my mate. What's going on?
Yo man, what's [laughter] going on? So we sit down. So they assume we're the the new candidate. You know, we've been accepted. We are those two that they were waiting for. So the, you know, the the main not the main uh Yeah. actually the main uh you know guy comes in the the the person the the principal or whatever they called him back then comes in and he just has a quick word and says look somebody's going to come to see to you and this deputy guy comes in and he used to run this whole training block of business and stuff and he's like oh shakes our hand and he's like yeah come through and you know how did you get was it okay and we're thinking yeah it's okay he's like
it was cool coming here yeah we're like Yeah. [laughter] And he shows us around all these centers and they've got this uh they've got like uh they had different vocational like woodworks mechanics. They had business, they had it. And he goes to us that oh right so uh so you guys are going to go into business. So we go we were thinking it. So he goes oh I thought business but what the hell yeah that's fine.
You know similar business admin. They get us in and everything. And it only comes to when we're about to sign the paperwork. [laughter] And he realizes we go, "But that's not my name though." [laughter] [gasps] So because he'd spent this whole afternoon with us, he was like, "Well," then he goes, "What? I don't get it. Why did you two come here?" So we said, "Well, we were just in the advisory place and they told us." So since we've now kind of had our little joking with him, our laughs, he's shown us around, done all of this, you know, we've agreed to the whole syllabus, everything, he's like, "Ah,
what the hell? Go on then." And like that the Lord opens doors for you. I have to say these kind of things like that, I found them so often in life. Um seriously in the words of that that when life had passed through such phases in life
[laughter] he says that what can we say except that the lord watched over us Allah Allah Allah people let's move on somebody said the analyst Mr. Laith, are you Mr. Laith? Do you mind touching? [laughter] What kind of a sting up is this? Do you mind touching? Huh? [laughter] Where's the Do you mind touching interfaith marriages again?
Having a mid20s crisis here. Well, I've got a very detailed video on that. You can check it out. Interfaith marriages. You naughty naughty. You you you you. Right. So, let's take a look at some of these questions. Miy, who's winning the election? I don't know. You know, that's a tough one.
I I I I have this scary feeling that Donald Trump is just going to win again. I I Yeah. I mean it's it's not obviously it's not awesome news [laughter] but I I feel he will I you know if he does win if he does win I think you know I look at the end of the day and allah he's already been in for so long and you know it's not the end of the world obviously it's not good some of the the rhetoric the rise of the
far right but I think it's not the uh end of the world if he does you know people will inshallah soldier through it people it's interesting because in many ways Trump has uh he's like a spanner in the works for many things because I you see there used to be this belief that this almost this conspiratorial belief oh the corporations the administration the you know the the powers to be are these one monolith with he is a prime example that it's not in harmony
that he although he's a billionaire and and part of the corporations yet the media is against him and the administration is kind of against him. It's really weird because if he if he was a poor person you could understand but he is a billionaire and he is you know emblematic of the corporations yet he is versus the administration.
I think it's a real mind um shaft that is going on here. So and I don't know whether to be honest with you Biden is a better person. I don't know why people feel that maybe he's more he's obviously more diplomatic and a lot more but then I don't get you know Americans I guess I just won't get them and it in some things I can't till today understand um how Americans don't all are not in support of a a medical a
national medical service a a health service like like how can they not have free healthcare and not want it? [laughter] I'm paying taxes. [laughter] Hi Americans. I don't get that. It's like, you see, just when you think you understand uh America, you you realize there, you know, and I'm sure that's not everyone, but that's many Americans.
I think they find it odd that there should be a national health service, a free health service. Why should we pay for healthare? Why should we pay out of our taxes? It's like, well, because everybody would have free healthcare, [laughter] you know? It's to us it's like in Europe it's a like that's just a given like it's not even it's a non-negotiable although it's a shame with the you know the tries here but still yeah somebody said made her account private after
I mentioned her marriage to Yaser Pasta I know that's not the original. Look, I did not I I you can look I did say last week I'm not interested in being petty. Okay, I'm not petty. Ruthless maybe not petty. So, you know, when somebody backs off, I back off. It was only when people publicly attack me that I retaliate and respond publicly.
So, that's to me that's fair play. it's fair game when they kind of like back off and say, "Look, I don't care." You know, if that's the attitude, then I'm not going to, you know, persistently go after people like that. My point is, you should just stay in your lane, that's all. And somebody did mention something about uh a marriage on my last uh on the last episode, but I didn't actually go into it because I said, "Look, I don't and I'm not interested in being petty with people." That's how it is.
It's these other You see what it is is these haters, they that are persistent, then I have to reciprocate, you know, this are reciprocity. [laughter] That's what it is. You missed my super chat, Kamal said. Let's go back and check Kamal's super chat, people. What is going down?
I don't see a super chat here. No, no, no, no, no, nope. Nothing. Right. So, I'll take a look. I can't see it. Ismael Aram says, "Uh, are all non-alcoholic beverages halal?" Of course. I mean, I don't understand why they wouldn't be. You explain that to me. Sauran Osman says, "My Abu, I love you, brother.
Love you too, man. May Allah keep you smiling. Stay blessed. Much love for the super chat." Right. So, right. Somebody says, "My can you say the [laughter] Horri is going to come at the end when I do the masala. That's when is going to come right blood is haram.
Uh Kamal if you can resend that I will take a I tell you what let me check on this thing on this I can sometimes go further. I have a different setup here as well. Uh um [clears throat] Salam Mui Ryan Christian Chris Christensen says uh have you read any of the 12 a hadith regarding the recommended ritual use of haral Syrian rue as both an incense and drink?
I haven't. Do send that to me. It'd be interesting. I have heard that it was used in um as an incense and it was definitely drunk as uh Roomie and other people mention it but I haven't read any of the literature on it. I haven't read the Shia literature or any Sunni literature on it. Kamal, I found your super chat. Much love. Salam Mui 43. If you think you can't do justice to the orphans, can you explain explain what justice here means?
[clears throat] Oh, this is to do with UH [laughter] I understand this is to do with marrying polygamy. Uh uh what is it? If you fear that you will not be uh and then Allah goes on to say and you will never truly be just.
This is about having more than one wife. I suppose one solution is to just be unjust fairly [laughter] to be equally unfair. [laughter] Not don't quote me. Don't quote me. Okay. So, [laughter] right. So here by the way this
[clears throat] I know here the term that it begins with is orphans and people here think this somehow means little children. It doesn't it does not mean that you see in a tribal society um in a tribal society and a tribal warlord society.
So I want you to and I keep giving this approximation always because people sometimes can't we can't truly fathom and I know because we've watched a lot of movies and things. So if you picture things like the Vikings and who were a warlord kind of uh raiding society and then reverse several centuries [laughter] and put that lifestyle in the Middle East and in the Arabian Peninsula that's what it was like in that lifestyle which was it was tribal you were everything your protection
your sovereignty if you had any, your freedoms, your uh wealth, your rights, human rights were ultimately protected by the Sabah by the family. Now what would happen and and that that that's a non-negotiable.
So even if you take the prophet's lifetime uh you see the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam if you look when why he wasn't attacked in Makkah or why they didn't just try to kill him in the beginning when they got frustrated with the prophet was because of the tribal protection given by Abu Talib uh you know primarily this was a powerful thing now we don't have it today So it's um it's difficult identifying with it because we're just reading it and thinking h like we're picturing them through our lens.
So in that society orphans were not just I mean obviously orphans were like three year olds one year olds they were orphans as well but orphans extended right into the late teens because if you've got a boy now let's say 17 years old everybody around him in an attack is killed because the way they would just they would just raid villages and they would just butcher people and take people away and maybe one two people children run away whilst this is happening.
Now they come back, the village has been destroyed, almost everyone killed or enslaved. Now you've just got a 16y old, you've got an 18y old, they are still in that society even though they may be in some way seen as bordering adulthood, but they are just children. what an a 16-year-old is still considered a child in many parts of the world.
So when Allah begins by saying look if you find these these people who have been orphaned and you take care of them now sometimes people are not you know we're all kind of selfish to some extent I mean we're all selfish by default we're selfish so we might feel sorry like let's say you see someone now 17year-old old, everybody around them killed, they don't know what what to do that, you know, place ruined.
Um, what do they do? How do they survive? What do they Now, you might feel sorry, but you're not going to bring them into your house. You're not going to bring everyone into your house. And so, marriage was an incentive that look, well, if it's a girl, obviously, this was primarily addressing the men, that's why. Well, why don't you marry them? Give them some protection. Give them shelter. give them sustenance.
Now that's an incentive because look ultimately we as human beings are selfish. People always ask you know the five most powerful words what's in it for me. So people say well you can marry her and that is incentivizing for many men. Okay. They will think that h but [laughter] they think point point
actually the humanitarian in me has awoken [laughter] the philanthropist. So here Allah is saying that look you know twos three four personally I don't I go with the opinion that there is no restriction on how many marriages a person has which is the view of shani and so on but um I know many people say this means four is a limit but because the verse doesn't say four it says in twos in threes in fours so some scholars read that as this is just enumerating saying like no matter how many you do
not that this is a restriction. Anyway, that's a different discussion for a different day. Uh but here you were told hey but if you do be mindful of being of justice of being just like don't just see this as an opportunity to exploit because obviously it comes back to the what's in it for me and you say well oh well actually a sexual relationship and that look unquestionably people just lie.
If we're in a day and age where people just like, you know, when but most men will automatically be like [laughter] the lights will just switch on automatically. So they'll be like, "Yeah, okay." And this might make them overstep their reach. Like they might say, "Okay, I'll marry her. I'll marry her. I'll marry her. I'll marry her. I'll marry her." And but you you don't even have the provisions.
And then what are you going to do? you're just going to well the ones you like you might favor them and the others you'll just let them kind of starve and you know not maybe fully starve but you know you're not really they're just destitute because you're not really um caring for them and you didn't have the provisions to start off with but you you know you grabbed much more [laughter] wrong metaphors here okay you bit more than you could chew [laughter] But this is the thing.
So Allah is saying ah but remember you must be just and it's not just it's not just it's more about you must be equal with them treat them equally and then Allah does go on to say acknowledge that look even though truthfully and this is an important part of the verse that like it's understandable that one will not truly be able to always be equal in everything and that doesn't just mean in emotions obviously emotions is a powerful part there but also in other
things like maybe you might end up giving a bit more here a bit more it might happen in life and Allah accepts that in the Quran saying look this is human nature may happen but for the most part you must endeavor to have equality must be the benchmark If you fall short on some you know occasions it happens but you know this must be the benchmark.
So that's the understanding of this verse uh in surah it's um some people said that that meant that oh you can't really do polygamy then I think that that's not what the verse is saying because then why would the verse begin in such a way and then say ah I'm only messing [laughter] why would the verse begin how I go out marrying multitudes marrying multitudes I'm only messing Don't bother.
Don't you dare. Don't you dare. [laughter] That would just be like, what the hell? What kind of reasoning is that? So, I I disagree with that. Um, somebody said, [laughter] that's a good one. Right. Um, is said, "Like non-alcohol, non-alcoholic beer and wine." Yeah, that's absolutely fine.
What do you think about Sharia compliant ethical investing? How extensive is your knowledge in this space? Peace and love. Afab right much love. Uh Kushki, you're doing it. Much love for the super chat. Muhammad Aman, much love for the super chat. You're doing it guys. You're doing it. Fitzar OG means original gangster. Ah, you you you haramies.
[laughter] Ah, just use proton mail or something. I'm not sure what that equally unfair. [laughter] Right. So, let me just get back to your question. You know, ethical investing and all this. I'm not sure what you mean by ethical investing. If you mean the Sharia compliant version, that's what I'm taking this question to mean that there's an Islamic corporation that does Islamic compliant investments.
You know, I okay to some extent I could understand if that means if because this could have a follow it could kind of branch off again into two it has this two-tail approach. One is they will not invest in corporations that are unethical uh in the sense that they um so for example they won't invest in things to do with weapons.
They won't invest in things which are spreading pollution. They won't invest in let's just say this is your approach. This is what you mean. Then I feel that doesn't have to really be called Sharia compliant. You could just call it more humane. uh investing, ethical investing. You could just call it ethical investing. You don't need to call it Islamic investing. Uh it's not necessarily Islamic. It's just being a very good human being. Uh so that I would say that's absolutely fine and I commend you.
I don't know if I would have uh such uh you know heightened ethics to think that far ahead of where all the investments are going and are they contributing to pollution or are they contribute but I commend your you know your your thinking if that's how you you mean if that's what you mean by this question the other way is oh it's to avoid ribba this concept of interest so Somehow this investment company says that we do it without any element of interest.
We've got some kind of a loophole. We go around. We reword this to mean this. We reword that to mean that. And now it's not ria. This I find absurd. And I would say I'd rather just go with regular people. You know, look, God is not a fool. Okay? Either you believe that is ribba or you believe it isn't. You see, now I don't believe those things are ribba of the Quran.
I have a whole video explaining how the ribba of the Quran was specific to this kind of brutal loan sharky. That's all, not to the modern day banking system. Even though this may be cruel as well in some aspects, but it doesn't measure up to that. You see, look, cruelty is a spectrum. Okay? There's there's there, you know, I'm not I'm sure all of it can be wrong or can be bad, but some is worse than others.
You know, assault is is a spectrum. So, if I get a piece of paper and I throw it at you, that it hits you, that's technically assault. you know taking a knife to someone and and cutting them up is assault but these are of a huge different I mean all assault is wrong but some is worse than others so to say that well you know look banking is is bad like the ethics with it's all about money money it is because it's banking duh but uh you know they want interest and they want this and
that's true but this is not the ribba of the Quran. So I don't believe that this is the ribba of the Quran. Mortgages are permissible. You want a mortgage, you want a loan, you can take it. That this interest system, as not good as it is, is not the ribba of the Quran. I've got a detailed video. You can watch it. It's on YouTube. However, if I did believe it's ribba, let's say I did believe it is ribba of the Quran, then why am I taking God to be a fool?
You know this is why I imam Malik was so against this healed system this kind of like let's create loopholes around God. He he he used to get so annoyed with it and so like he would condemn it so harshly that that what the hell is this you know like look either you recognize with muslah that's why I im Malik had muslah he had this thing that look today such and such thing demands ease so we will make an exemption from this ruling we will dergate we move away from the ruling based on this welfare but we're being open about it you know Imam Malik
said, "Oh, like let's say people um they uh a woman gets married." This this is actual fatwa in Immalik's time that uh the that's um you get this sorry I'm just trying to why is this gone all blurry right so uh you get this sorry from the Maliki madhab that women for their wedding would spend an excess amount of uh relatively for their age money on doing up their hair and doing up all these things that and the wedding lasted for like seven days.
Um, sorry, not the the actual wedding ceremony, the fest the festive element, the celebration lasted for a week. So, if she was to wash and everything, like fully bathe properly, wash her hair, it would ruin everything. So, there was a ruling, there's a ritual, let's say, bathing, but you derate it. They say, "Okay, it doesn't apply here. You based on the welfare like this." There's many rulings that the Malakia made based on welfare.
They said that the ruling doesn't apply here. But what some of the madabs would do like the hanafi mab is they would try to create loopholes. So they change this name, they change this, they change this and they do a loophole around God. And the thing is that God ain't stupid. Yeah. You know, if you believe that's what he said, then why are you taking the mick? [laughter] You know, it's just I honestly I I'm amused at this at the clergy.
You know, they will mock people. They will mock me. Yeah. Ridicule me for saying, "Look at him. He's a deviant. Look what he looks like. Look how he says this is halal. That is halal." Yet they will all get together and they will do things like try to create these ribba. They will teach people ribba is haram. And then they will say, "Okay, here's a loophole around it." And it's like, "God, [laughter] it's okay.
God doesn't get it." [laughter] They're like, "Sh, God doesn't understand what they're up to. Your clergy." So, this is why I I I I can't understand this stuff. You know, you get people like I know he's very respected, but you get people like Muakis, you know, he he's one of the the founding fathers of all this.
is one of the key pioneers of all this halal financing. Not to mention, and I'm just saying it honestly, look, I I respect him for the the good stuff and his commitment to the dean and to knowledge. Respect that. But let's be honest, he got paid a very handsome paycheck by the corporations worldwide, by the banks worldwide, a huge corporation check to pass on on that thing, which he did. He came toured around the UK and Europe for several years.
He had a huge monetary payout. Huge for being the face of this financing thing. And what did he do after 7 years? He retreated, put his son in place. His son now is one of the key figures on this. And then he wrote a little article somewhere saying, "Oh, I'm not so sure about it being halal. I kind of backtracked now." you know, like, okay, you backtrack now even though your son's still the head of the but you know, you you rad in literally, you know, I mean, we're talking huge huge amounts of money.
So, and yet they will then say that's okay. You know, you can God's stupid enough to not realize what we're doing. We'll teach people this is haram. God will punish you by the hellfire for doing this. But obviously we're more intelligent by creating this loophole. And oh, but if you shave your beard, you're you're going to hell. [laughter] Ah, your human intelligence.
[laughter] See, this is why I get fed up with the clergy and with the institutionalization that we have today because it's not sincere. It's not sincere. It's all, you know, in the words of, [laughter] you know, it's all for sale, man. It's all for sale. But yeah, right. Let's move on.
So, Le is a Sunni, Shia, Sufi, Salafi. I'm Sunni. Of course, I'm Sunni. Yeah, I'm Sunni. I Sunni. I'm Sunni. I'm Maliki. Um, that's it really. [snorts] Somebody said Muy drink something cold. Look, I've got my Hi. Hi. H highi h highi
muy. The beard is in the dean. The dean is not in the beard. Hell no. Um, I think that look this uh somebody asked about gay and being gay and stuff like I've got a whole video uh on that speaking about the diverse history. I think it's called homosexuality and Islam a diverse history.
I think it's called something like that. The videos you can check it out on YouTube. Uh, Mui, don't forget my super chat. I asked, "How did you meet Mrs. Le [laughter] you naughty naughty?" Ah, I've met so many by now. I [laughter] It's difficult.
[laughter] If only I had the memory of Imam Bkari. [laughter] I'll have to write my memoirs of a Mui someday. But it can't be released whilst I'm alive. [laughter] What's going on? What's going on? Uh, did get Hamza Abdul Malik on Minecraft?
Hamza Abdul Malik. Who's Hamza Abdul Malik? [snorts] [laughter] Not sure I got that one. Uh, hula hoops.
Hula loops. That's it. [laughter] Imagine on judgment day Allah says, "Okay, we're going to begin with the beards. [laughter] All these haramies, bring them here. [laughter] We're like, oops, guys. I think we kind of got that one wrong.
[laughter] But you have to seriously think the God of the cosmos, you know, so unfathomably intelligent and transcendently compassionate and just amazing, majestically amazing.
Why would that god be obsessed with our facial hair or with these kind of little silly rulings that people run around with? Seriously, does that because the basis of the Sharia was preservation of life. This was the basis and then to allow for the prosperity of life which included things like preservation of reason so ideas could be cultivated, progeny could be allowed to grow and you know you could have children who would take over and develop and and in order to do that
you would need provisions so preservation of wealth for them for the society. So obviously the five main things this is what the dean was in essence the preservation and to establish order that's all it was so human beings could could get on and and be successful in life. People have turned it into a weird kind of uh God is this this kind of they infantilize God.
He's this kind of this angry kind of child who gets uh angry so quickly throws tantrums. He wants to, you know, punish everyone for, you know, oh, you trimmed a bit of your cheek hair. Punish that person. [laughter] It's like, what the hell is going on here? [laughter] No.
God, if God hated, you know, the the [laughter] Well, seriously, what why would God hate, you know, particular Oh my god, you've done your hair in that particular style. Let's let's torture you by burning your skin until for for an infinity. [laughter] It's like what? Wait, wait. What have I done?
[laughter] You used the blade razor. [laughter] This So this is not, you know, if that's what you think of God, fine. That's not God. But okay, you're entitled to your world view. So, but that is not God. You see, we need to start thinking, you know, Allah says in the Quran, that verse fits here that they did not truly
capture God's majesty. They didn't. They've just pictured some little child throwing a tantrum because he can't get what he wants and he throws his and they've projected that onto God or some angry um you know like some angry warlord who is occasionally kind.
This is the image they project onto God. But these are man-made images they're projecting backwards. I wouldn't you know it's let me tell you something you know let me share with you this uh this uh allegory or which which I came across one so amazing said imagine you came across a termite [laughter] little termite useless thing and you could have a conversation with it.
So you have a conversation with this termite and you ask it what you seem to be busy what are you doing like you know what are you doing what are you up to so the termite says to you this this termite I want you to picture this yeah little termite it says to you oh I'm just mapping out the cosmos [laughter]
says I'm mapping out the cosmos. Now, what a absurdly ridiculous yet humorous statement that is. This termite is mapping out the cosmos. Now, hold that thought and slightly zoom out into the cosmos.
We ain't different at all from that termite to the cosmos. We are in essence we might think we're so big compared to this termite, you know, but we are but nothing. You have this infinitely, you know, great cosmos out there.
How infinitely majestic do you think the transcendent divine is who created it? So us the way this termite is is you know we see that as such a laughable matter that's how we are to God just laughable [laughter] you know that's that's the truth right uh few super chats let me just All right there goes one I've just missed it
[laughter] your thoughts on the hadith uh from Bkari. Fatima is a part of my body and what I hate she hate she hates to see and what hurts Fatima hurts me. Ali could not take a second wife. You see, I I don't think that to be honest with you, I don't think the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam would have uh stopped Ali from taking a second wife.
Um but it's who he was marrying and the great harm that that would cause. You see, obviously, one could understand that a second wife would cause some harm anyway, like some, you know, it wouldn't be a pleasant feeling. I understand that. But you, they were in a society where it was quite the norm. It's not like an odd thing or one person was doing it.
Almost every single person did it. So, they grew up like that. Remember, they grew up as children. Every single person they saw, the majority of them w were practicing polygamy. wasn't something that was rare for them. But yet, I wouldn't deny the naturalness of that kind of jealousy or that kind of uh dislike and discomfort to that. I totally ex think that was real.
But the issue was Ali wanted to marry the daughter of Abu Jahal, not of not any other woman. who was who epitomized I mean she didn't but her father epitomized the absolute opposite end of the spectrum for the prophet you know you've got the prophet and you've got the enemy forces and at the epitome of was Abu Jahal so to marry his daughter so in one household see in fact read what the if don't stop there Read the full hadith.
The prophet said, "One roof will not host the daughter of the messenger of Allah and the daughter of the enemy, the great enemy of Allah." That's what the prophet said. He never said one roof won't have two women or whatever. He he said that it was the it was the actual incident. So just to so just to clarify that
you're doing it much love for the super chat. Why do shikhs in the west wear Islamic clothing amongst the people? I feel that is created a barrier with the people not just the non-Muslims but Muslims as well. It comes off as very intimidating status uh differentiation thoughts. I absolutely agree uh it's something I've said time and time again.
There has never been this is all fake. It is all um artificial is a better word. There was never an Islamic clothing to begin with. The prophet did not walk around in this kind of a th and wearing this kind of a hat and wearing this is not from the prophet. This is just part of you know maybe a few centuries ago uh Muslim territorial uh appperal you know just Muslim clothing garments that were worn in certain parts of the world that were Muslim not all parts of the world so you know Islam's been in China for so long
Islam's been in you know central Africa for so long but it's not their clothing a particular type of clothing that just has dominated Ed. Um, so people have assumed that that's somehow Islamic and they've given it this label and really the clergy have used it as a symbol of power to kind of it's to demonstrate.
It's kind of like, you know, I hate to say it, but it's, you know, [laughter] but this is how they use it. You know, I it's ultimately just a kind of pissing contest. You know, they're just, you know, I I'm so much holier than you are. Look at me. You know, I wear this. I, you know, why this is what I do. I do this. I do that. What?
Why? You know, the prophet never wore what you you got to be dreaming if you think this these ths they wear today in in Saudi and what were what the prophet wore. The clothing back then wasn't like this. They used to, if anything, it was a much shorter um and it was they used to have a suit, a halah and the uh and sorry, this haha and the haha would be to this was their kind of like their good attire and it would be a kind of sarong uh isar that they wore beneath and they would have a kind of their version of a shirt which
did not necessarily resemble the shirts today except in maybe obviously the obvious parts but they didn't have this kind of style to them or this kind of these are things that came much later. Many of the companions didn't even wear a shirt. They used to just that was part of their culture. They just sometimes just wore a cloth a shawl and just had a bit like the Hajj thing. Many of them just dressed like that. And many of them just wore the thing underneath and just wore nothing on top.
They used just be like barechested and ah when men were men huh [laughter] and today you would never they wouldn't even allow those companions in the mosque. You got to be dreaming if you know this thing that oh yes they did wear they did have their version of a turban but their version of a turban didn't look like this turban today. It's interesting, you know, if you look at their kind of style turbons, the Arab turban was one that they would wrap it around here.
They would bring and this is why the nikab was something that men would do as well. They their turbons used to kind of come round around here as well. And it was like that because it was really something to do with the sand that the sand they never wanted the sand in their hair because the Arabs used to have long hair. The men prophet had long hair, prophet had hair. You know, obviously we can't see the prophet, but if people saw the prophet today, most of these clergy men, obviously, if they didn't know it was the prophet, you think they would allow the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam on the mimba.
No way. Not with that kind of hair that they would be like, "What the hell is this?" And the prophet, he on some occasions platted his hair. But many of the companions would they would braid and plat their hair and they would tie it at the back and they would have little braids as well. And some some of the Salv had ponytails the men they would kind of like tie their hair together at the back and basically they were a different it was it was a natural Islam.
It wasn't about attire. They would not today be allowed by the clergy like they would be deemed uh unworthy [laughter] to have any religious position. This clothing uniform came hundreds of years later. This became part of what the clergy introduced that we are separate the priesthood you know look we wear a particular attire we distinguish ourselves from the commoners.
this was all about status about you know about being something and then obviously later on they change that as well according to wherever they live so uh if it's for example Pakistan the common people wear shawwar kamse and the mulvies wear shawwar kamse but the mulvies will say okay we're not going to wear the collars and we're going to wear a turban because okay some common people do wear turbans in the villages but many don't so they took it as their symbol Um, in Saudi to be fair, uh, what they might do is because the commoners will still wear the same ths
wear, but what they might do is wear that kind of forgotten the name of that kind of u they have an outer layer kind of it's not a cloak, but it's like it's like a coat cloak kind of thing that they wear, which distinguishes them from either royaltywary or they want to be like royalty. This is it. They just want it's all about power, you know. I say this time and time again.
It's all about power, people. You know, and it draws huge kind of barriers between the regular person who who's too scared to even ask them something. [laughter] Yeah. So, let's go down to the next question. Somebody said, "The god of the cosmos." Va va. Uh Ab Hamza Abdul Malik is a an African-American Quranist brother.
Sure, I'm happy to get him on. I mean, reach out to him. Reach out to me. Famous topic Mui, you made a great video, Bkari Gay and lead and leaning on the famous topic Aisha regarding the ages Muslim other books. Does that mean that they are there are more? Every single chain of narration to do with the age of Aisha was fabricated. It was either some may have innocently been fabricated.
They were engineered. Let me put it like that. They were doctorred. Um and the core culprit was Hisham. Um you know he he may have done it for righteous reasons but the you know it doesn't justify the goal. Like he I'm not saying his reasons were nasty. They weren't he every single chain if you look at them you know I I did this uh analysis of this chart where you can see how they the formation of these hadith how they develop along the way and you can see
the common link really is Hisham and some of them are fabricated. Every single person who narrates this hadith, every single person lower down in the level when it starts getting transmitted in the books is from Iraq. Every single person. [laughter] If that doesn't ring alarm bells, what does you know? Have the rest of the world died?
Are there no Muslims in any other part of the world? What happened to Medina? What happened to Mecca? What happened to Egypt? What happened to every single person was from Iraq. This is at the the lower level once it's recorded, you know, before it's recorded that the last level. Every single person that is enough to tell you that this hadith is going to be problematic.
And it was really just Hashem trying to one salvage the honor of Aisha because that was his great aunt. But also to reinforce um the political narrative because it was important that Aisha is a very powerful figure. Why? Because um you see politically the Abbisids wanted to lean in on a neutral narrative of history cuz you had the Umeyad version which they were anti and the Umyad version was different and then you had the Shia version who they
came from but then split off and became Sunni. Right? So the Abbisids, they couldn't lean on the Shia version because then the masses would be against you and also it might give the actual Shia greater claim to the seat and they couldn't lean on the omead narrative of history. So they needed a middle ground and there was another narrative, the Zuberid narrative because they also ruled.
So the Zuberid thing is reinforced by Aisha who as it happened was already a point of contention with the Shia. So the Shia were kind of cursing her and saying things about her and the Shia had started this thing about Aisha um had already was lentious and she was lustful with her first husband before she married the prophet.
And this is a reaction to that that Hisham says that you know well she married so and so told me where she says she married when she was only six or seven. This is a reaction to that six and nine. And this why six and nine. Six and nine because this was a a um a kind of peripheral narrative that existed in the Zerastrian culture of the Middle East.
So one of the marriages that the Zerastrians had was where so it wasn't a popular but it existed. So the Zarastrians had I think four or five popular marriages like their marriages were of certain types. They had one which was of incest and marry their own sister or marry their mother or marry their daughter. Uh one obviously they had normal marriages as well and one was that they would um the proper term but they would kind of uh not nominitate they would allocate a
daughter let's say a girl to uh devote herself in a temple and what would happen is the husband would come she would be around six uh six years old the husband would so who's thinking on marrying this girl, he would uh uh propose to the family. When they accept, they would place this six-year-old in a temple to devote herself for 3 years for this kind of spiritual enhancement and purity.
At the age of nine, the husband would come and receive her from the temple and he would take her and she would be his wife. Now, this existed in the um in what would be like modern day Iran and the Middle East, that part of the world. This culture already existed with some of the Zarastrians. I'm not saying it was the dominate, it wasn't the dominating thing, but it did exist as part of the culture just as uh the incestuous relationships existed.
It wasn't strange to them. Now because this narrative already existed, Hisham leans in on it and he employs that eventually. But this is a development. He doesn't initially go with this. Initially he just says he married her and she was young and then he gives it an age. He says she was nine and then it develops.
The story starts having more. actually he proposed when she was six uh and then went with her when she's nine and and the story develops. So yeah, I hope that helps. Salam again, Muy Ryan, you're doing it Christ. Have you ever looked into the notion that the jin are actually Yungian archetypes residing in our collective unconscious?
H I haven't. You can send me something on that if you like. You see to me the jin they're not [clears throat] something in the mind but I think that these are the things that exist in a dimension of consciousness that we generally don't have access to and I think what happens is when people
have reached a certain level of consciousness historically usually maybe unbeknownst to them but through psychedelics they have seen and communicated with beings that they can't identify some people like in South America in part of it they will call them the manari or and these beings beings can sometimes give information and there's different types of these these um illuminated essences these beings of light and I feel that these things
are part of it is this jin thing that because jin just simply means the that which cannot be seen so I think that's what it kind of is a different dimension thing where so these people who have experienced that through um psychedelic means what they would see may be what is being referred to because that when a person experiences it is more real than they're real they don't think that you know it's not like a dream you wake up and you think oh it wasn't real it's actually very real it's
more real than what you think is now so I that's what I would be inclined towards it is that like what people would term um you know they might give them different names. Somebody said Jawad says homosexuality is a mix of different factors. It's partially genetic. Literally everything is genetic in some way.
link to that question. Ahmed Sahib is saying, I take if I just go up and I see this question. I um I can't see but somebody's referring to his question of anal sex is impure. [laughter] Nutty nutty.
Well, impure meaning unclean, I take it. [laughter] Right. So, yeah. I mean, the the everything is genetic to some extent. Uh, somebody said the Anunnaki is some madeup BS. I don't know. You know, you see these things are are made up.
You see, you say that until you experience it and you think, well, h, you know, it's interesting that people in the [clears throat] in the Amazon, you see the knowledge they have of certain things, it's so difficult that they could have just acquired that through trial and error.
I mean like as an example like having 80,000 uh you know plant species around you and knowing that that and only a dozen contain these MAU inhibitors but knowing which one to combine with this to create and you could just say oh that's just pot luck but when they're asked how did you arrive at this knowledge and they say they they give you the answers they're not like they say it's because the plant spoke to [laughter] And I feel that it sounds crazy but I don't know you know I feel that
there's a communication beyond words that it's not like a speech communication but it's not like they speak in words but there's a communication but it's beyond our dimension of consciousness and you know is not Everything ultimately a language is not mathematics a language is not the cosmos ultimately mathematical so I don't know but I guess in the everyday world it's just you know it's not obviously these are not part of our everyday life so we don't think of it
until you go on a trip [laughter] you're like [laughter] there's this world as Well, all right. Uh, is the termite called Abdul Maj? I don't know what that means. Uh, right. Let's go down.
Right. It's paradoxically though when you find modes of submission. Don't know. Is there any hadith on the virgin birth? You contradicted yourself with the ant of though. Yeah. I'm not saying that. Look, I said that.
So you see in this general realm, right? Okay. I can accept that as well. But what just to clarify for people what I said in this everyday realm, our world is not like that. You know, nature doesn't communicate with us in our everyday realm. So if you're taking the picture of Sulmanis being in his normal state of mind like everyday world, then nature doesn't communicate.
But if you're saying that so I had said that that would have been that this is as a vision it was shown to him that oh and the these ants are looking out for each other communicating for their safety and it kind of showed him wow the kind of majesty it just reflected on the majesty that he had but if you're saying to me that through some you know through a vision through consuming something um he saw this.
It's still a vision, you know. It's not like uh you see when you go into that realm, that dimension, it's still it's not actually like it's not like something that's actually here in this realm that we can see. These are other dimensions which we don't normally have access to. You see, what's interesting is physics today is discussing dimensions.
They're not just three, four dimensions. There's either 10 or 11. Where are these dimensions? One asks. Mhm. [laughter] All right. So, is the MA more authentic than Bkari love from Germany? Yes, it is. Unquestionably, it's much closer as a shorter chain. Um, it is more authentic.
Right. Let's speak a bit about Khabib. I had mentioned we're going to speak about Khabib is doing it. Doing it. Right. That's it. His surname I always struggle with his surname. [laughter] Right. So, um I'm not particularly into watching many sports, but he is more than a sportsman.
Khabib is a phenomenon and I say this because you see Muslims in this day and age because we're kind of downtrodden we need Muslims feel that they need whether they do need or not is questionable but there's a they feel they need a hero and here comes a person who's not, you know, an archetype of your average Muslim who is assumed to be brown and from the Middle East or from
India or, you know, black, you know, or, you know, this is the archetype, you know, this is your typical perception of a Muslim. He's somebody from Russia, you know, that kind of you don't really picture to be Muslim. And then he comes along and he uh somebody said his actual name is Hhabib N Muhammadav.
Uh is it okay? Wow. Okay. That his surname is N Muhammad. Okay. I didn't know that. I just knew it how it is said. I knew that Hhabib was Khabib was Habib. I knew that. Yes. But not the N Muhammad part. So here comes this person and he is absolutely amazing at what he does. I, you know, as somebody who's not even into the sport as in watching, I don't watch uh I just don't find I don't seem to I'm weird like that.
I don't seem to have an interest in watching sport uh of any nature. I just don't find it interesting. Now, I'll watch highlights of boxing matches if they're popular or highlights of UFC, but I'm not interested in following it. So, but [snorts] he is an absolute, you know, a master practitioner of his art. I mean, the guy is he's a beast.
He's ruthless. I mean, you just think, "Wow." Okay. I watched the highlights of his recent fight and he just wow. The other guy, Gachi or what whatever his name is, who was apparently meant to be somebody epic and yet he just, you know, he second round it's over.
But but what I want what but what I'm more uh int or in intrigued by is the phenomenon. You see because what he does is he proudly wears his Islam. So he'll say alhamdulillah inshallah and you know thanks to Allah and these things obviously in an age where Islam is downtrodden in in an age of Islamophobia these things give immense [laughter]
they bring relief I guess to many Muslims and I think that part is understandable. And it is wow you know it is very a person does they identify with it and that to you're for once identifying with the world champion who's undefeated you know and I don't you know he's not a very big person when you think about it you know he's not somebody like physically such a beast I'm sure he he's been up against people much you know bigger although they're the same weight division but bigger than him but yet he's this undefeated beast
of a fighter. But yeah, I feel that um that he is a phenomenon because he kind of represents that he gives pride to people who are Muslim and he's resigned uh undefeated although I he he says well the [laughter] uh the reason is because he's promised his mother and he's true to his word and um and I think people some people kind of found that amusing and yeah I mean I don't know maybe it's just because he's beat everybody in his division and he thinks well what the hell but yeah I I I
think that's something to people find as you know they find some solace in that and there's nothing wrong with that because Muslims everywhere you see them they're beaten and here is a person who's a legend and he's uh he holds the title and he uh is a Muslim and he proudly says he he says I know this upsets you but I'll say it alhamdulillah Uh [laughter]
[gasps] so yeah I I absolutely I rate that that he's very confident about his faith even being Russian being confident about your faith because one must remember that Russia probably gives much less rights to being Muslim as the West does. You know you can openly be a Muslim here but in Russia you could be seen as a traitor. And I think the fact that he despite that he openly wears his Islam is very um admirable.
So I uh I do admire him. I think he's he's amazing uh in that sense. It's funny as well because his his accent makes him much funnier than he's trying to be. He's not trying to be funny, but his accent makes him funny. [laughter] It's like when he jumped over the cage and he's like um and I I'm pretty sure he got into trouble for that but he he's like and then he gives a press conference which is just after that and he's like why everybody still talk about the me jumping over cage why everybody he he attacked bus why you still talk about [laughter] and you're thinking well because it just
happened mate [laughter] but I think the accent makes it much funnier and I I think with the whole thing of um McGregor, I think he just took it way too personal. You know, Khabib, I think that McGregor was just doing it because he's just creating a hype. You know, that's what you got to do for showbiz. Uh and I think the thing about McGregor is that he's just really witty. And I think most people are not witty anyway.
You take most people, they're not actually very witty on the spot. And then you get people who are fighters and and I think they're generally a bit slower than your average kind of person be, you know, you get this kind of archetype, I suppose, of you know, somebody who's just a fighter and and and even if they weren't, they were just normal. McGregor seems to be incredibly witty.
So, it's difficult having comebacks. You know, anything you say will immediately spin it. And uh obviously he brought that whole kind of that clout to this UFC. You know, he did that whole thing I suppose what Muhammad Ali did except added all the swearing and the insults and teasing people and really making them get angry and so and I think that's what he did to Khabib.
Khabib obviously took it as you know that that Bollywood dush money dushman Dman Dman [laughter] 20 years later I'll get you back. So yeah but cool I wanted to say some words about that because he has unquestionably become a hero and I think that that he is definitely he is a legend I have to say. I've watched some of his fighting thing and I thought, "Whoa, this guy is he's [laughter] he's a beast." So, yeah.
Cool. Let's uh Somebody said he'll become a fighter for the for the Chetchin. I don't know about that. I think that would just ruin his image. Right. So, yeah, somebody said it sells, Mui. It does. That's what the thing is because uh it sells. You know what McGregor did is sold the industry. He just gave the industry a hype.
Right? Let's move on. Speaking of Islam, the media, everything, where did I have that? Oh, before I go uh move on to that about France, this was something about [laughter] [gasps] about the eagle himself, Khabib.
Amir Khan had just tweeted, but he just literally copied and pasted [laughter] what Sony uh Bill Williams had tweeted literally word for word. I mean, that's just crazy. I thought, [laughter] what the hell, man? That was funny. These people,
right now everybody is pretty much aware of the incident or the the backdrop. There was an unfortunate a tragedy of a beheading that took place in France. Um I'm not sure if I've spoken about it already, but a teacher, yes, I did in my last Monday nights or the last Q&A that a teacher was beheaded for showing uh the cartoons depicting the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
[snorts] Right. Now I have mentioned that look people have the right to critique to criticize religion. If if certain people want to draw cartoons of the prophet we should just ignore it.
Okay? They do it to provoke. Don't react. Don't let it wind you up. That's exactly what they want to do. They want you to feel hurt. You know, this is this is what they want. This is exactly just put it out of your sight, okay? Just ignore it.
It may hurt you as a person, but it's the world, you know? We're not here to control the world. We're not to I do think it's it's very silly of people to try to uh offend Muslims by doing that. But okay, if they want to be silly, they that's their choice.
Now, this particular teacher Samuel Pati, I believe his name is. Now he uh I'm not sure in what context he was showing the I think I could be wrong. I think he was just discussing uh freedom of speech or he was trying to discuss the Charlie Hebdo case and showed them as a um is that I don't know if somebody had said that here but is that what um was he just trying to because the the trials are kind of ongoing and things like this so because it was relevant I assume he was
discussing the matter that's what I think Um, or maybe he was just showing them because he was enjoying the satire, but I I'm I'm going with the format that he was showing it out of because it was relevant because the current Charlie Hebdo trials are taking place and this is what it's all about. So, he was kind of showing them. Nevertheless, somebody apparently they get the message out.
some French Chchan um who's an 18year-old finds out. He somehow gets him. I'm not even sure how he gets hold of this person. He gets him and he kills him. The media was confused about whether he actually beheads him, but he or he slits his throat or whatever, but he tragically kills him. I have expressed that this is utterly unacceptable from an Islamic perspective.
You cannot commit these acts of barbarity. Okay, this is unacceptable is as an honor as a statement. He decides to one okay have a whole processionary kind of funeral for that person which is fine which is you know that's absolutely you know if you want to do that that's fine.
um he wants to give him the utmost high award for being a hero for the state. Personally, I don't think really that's being a hero for the state. Um although I feel he was well within his rights to discuss the topic, the Charlie Hebdo topic. I also feel he was well within his rights to show the cartoons.
If I don't know the ins and outs, if he was doing it just to provoke people, not because it's relevant, but just saying here's a big, you know, here's a big FU to all the Muslims out there. If he was doing it as that, I don't I think it was just a very silly thing, but he was within his rights to do it. now being beheaded for or being killed for it.
I don't personally think that equates to automatically becoming a hero for the state. But whatever France is, you know, it's they're a sovereign state. They want to declare him a hero. Fine. You know, it's it's it's absolutely fine. Uh it's their own executive decision. Then President Macron, what he decides to do is um he decides to have the cartoons of the prophet Muhammad projected onto uh massive buildings and billboards, right?
I I take it from what I've read is right throughout the country. I've seen video footage of it in in certain places, but I've read that it's right throughout the country. And he says that openly that drawing cartoons of the prophet is a right that we have and he wants to make this a statement. Now personally I think that is very poorly managed by the president of France.
I think it's um a regrettable move because look, I get the fact that what the person did, what that this was a tragedy. I get that. I agree with that. I endorse that. I endorse the fact that look, killing is never a solution. And I endorse the statement that it was barbaric and it was wrong.
I even say I go a step further say he has no place in Islam right now. However, to say well let's you know okay well what provoked you was the picture of the prophet Muhammad uh doing whatever dumb silly things whatever it is. So in your face what we're going to do is put this everywhere on these huge buildings. Um that to me is just taking the you know it's literally it's just taking the mick like what I don't understand how and he says well if Muslims don't like it tough are the Muslims of France not your
citizens as well you know don't don't they have a fundamental right as well like why why is this just and they say well you know so what it's just a look I'm I get the fact if some people want to do it it's fine fine, you know, it's their right, but governments shouldn't get involved in these things. This is not a government thing. For the government to do it, [laughter] that's taking the mick, you know, for the government to do it.
Like, I understand a satirical newspaper doing it. I understand a right-wing kind of uh organization doing it. I understand even regular people doing it. But governments are there to represent all the people. They need to take all sentiments into consideration. They need to take the ethnic minorities into consideration who by the way are substantial quantity in France.
You need to take everybody into you represent the people. You don't just represent non-Muslim people. You represent the French Muslims as well. You know, if somebody tomorrow said, "I want to write a big FU. All Muslims are the C-word. This is my calligraphy logo.
All Muslims are the C-word." Okay, I think that's an absolute dumb move to do and it's probably going to, you know, some people are going to get angry and they shouldn't assault you, but you're probably putting yourself up for assault. But if the president of a country wants to endorse that logo now, that's just taking this to a ridiculous height.
Like what the hell? Like a a president and a government, a a monarch, they shouldn't be getting involved in these things. they should be always seen as people who take everybody's sentiments into consideration, not just uh you know the majority. So I think that is a very um you know it's it's a shame what the French um administration is doing.
I think that um it is very provocative. I I I hope Muslims do not react violently. Protesting is their right and they have reacted in the thousands and thousands worldwide with protests. If they want to economically boycott France, I can understand it.
I feel that if they want to do that, that's fine. Um, if somebody doesn't boycott France, I don't think they should be guilt tripped. I don't think you should guilt trip. Like, if you see a Muslim buying, I don't know what's what's French. Um, [laughter] forgotten what's French. But if there's a French designer, is Dior?
I think Dior is French. Chanel. Chanel is French. So if you see somebody buying Chanel perfume and you say, "Oh my god, you've got, you know, you that's haram." You know, I think that's wrong. Don't don't pressure Muslims into that. It's a personal choice if Muslims want to do it, but I totally understand it. Um I the fact that Muslim countries are doing it at a state level is [clears throat] makes sense that like it's a state-of-state response like if a president of a country responds to a president with that response
because that's where it hurts. So basically they're hitting the pockets because the pockets are what hurt. And make no mistake that these, you know, the French exports, they have a huge export to the Arab-speaking world. Most of North Africa, it, you know, it buys so many French products. Several countries in the Middle East buy it. So because of the colonialization, so you've got the whole thing still going on.
And I think that's that abs that is a justified response. Um, absolutely. But um, but I don't think it on the same token I don't think you have the right to guilt trip people who don't boycott them. So if they do buy French products, ultimately I do understand that the French products didn't do that. So we have to make that distinction that I understand.
Let's just say I I don't want to pick a particular one in case they did [laughter] and I get it wrong, but I understand all of those products I'm sure didn't necessarily support the Charlie Hebdo thing. Uh that said, at a state level, statutory level, because the state has got involved to say, well, we feel it's a right to disrespect the prophet Muhammad. Uh which I think is so dumb.
I I I can't believe you'd have to have the brain of a Neanderal to think like that because really people presidents and prime ministers are people who are diplomats who know how to make the country prosper economically in this day and age. They have to be diplomatic. this kind of a you know thuggery response like oh big F you to all the Muslims here is you know if your president is doing that that is so such a a neanderal of a president that you've got honestly that that is somebody that is going to sink that [Â __Â ] [laughter] you really need to replace that
president with somebody who's got a higher IQ because you need in this day and age you need you always need the person in control to be coolheaded it you having a hotthead. [laughter] Yeah. So I hope that um I want to share that and that that's my thoughts on it. So I know when Muslims start boycotting what happens is they start guilt tripping other Muslims.
That is wrong as well. You shouldn't guilt trip people. It's your own personal choice. Right. Somebody said we've trolled macaron. I am macaroni. I am macaroni. We've trolled macaroni all day on Twitter. Whole government is on crack. Yeah, man. I do feel sorry for um somebody said boycott French kiss.
[laughter] This one borderline, you know. No, no, no, no, no. Boycotting. [laughter] Uh right. So, by Mexicans, has Mexico boycotted France? Okay, I didn't know that they had. Somebody said Muslims should boycott French passports. Okay, I'm not sure how that works. How you boycott passport, but okay.
Somebody said Musty, please debate hijab. [laughter] Would hijab want to come on Mind Trap? I don't think he would for the reasons aforementioned earlier on today. Um Muisa, please don't forget my super chat. Ah, right. I know. See, boycott French fries. No, no, no, no. French fries and the earlier French thing.
This one, this one, these two, these two things we can't. No boycotting French fries. No boycotting French kissing. This one. No, no, no. So, these two things are okay. [laughter] What else is French on the That's on the sacrosan list. I think that's it, isn't it? Is there anything else that?
[laughter] All right. So, French fries are Belgian, are they? Oh, rather. Uh, can you have a chat with Dawkins? I would love to have a chat with I I absolutely admire uh Richard Dawkins. I I I love him. Honestly, I'm not going to lie. I think he's an amazing uh mind. I don't necessarily agree with obviously everything he comes out with, but who cares, you know?
You don't have to agree with someone to always French toast. Absolutely. Uh is sing haram? [laughter] What do you think about the haton slap? Speaking about fights, this people was the first online fight we've had in the world. [laughter]
Watch out. Watch out. [laughter] [laughter] online fighting. Hatun, what do you think of the Hatun slap? Uh, right. I saw this clip where she I I don't know exactly because the clip was so short. I I I didn't know the exact context of what she was saying.
I know that she was um I take it insulting Allah and she was insulting the prophet. And where I saw the clip, it said that the person who assaults her is a Christian. This is what I saw. I don't know how accurate that is, but it said that the person who assaults her is Christian.
And at a certain point in the time stamp, uh, he says that's part of the actual clip, he says, "I am a Christian." And I and I think he assaults her because either one of the comments said because they also call God Allah. So he saw her as insulting God or I'm not sure what the reality was but um
right. So okay now I'm just saying right okay now yeah so look I condemn any kind of assault okay I look we are not look look at the entire animal kingdom we are humans do not pride ourselves on our strength.
We do not pride ourselves on our fighting. We do not pride ourselves as humans on our ability to swim in the animal kingdom on these things. We are only in the middle of a very long chain. You know, we can't fly. We may, you know, we can't outswim most uh predators that that swim.
We can't um on the land many creatures. We cannot outfight them. They would tear us to pieces. One tiger slap, one beer slap would completely devastate us. We are not, it is not our brute force that brings us to the apex.
It is this we have a mind that has unimaginable reach. It yields such power that we can subdue the entire animal kingdom. We can go, we can unveil the atom and look right into the cosmos.
This is the power of this mind. That is what sets us apart. It is not our force or our ability to hit another human being or you know these things are just this just acting like that is nothing special. It's just being an animal. I do not support assaulting people, okay? I do not support this getting angry and [laughter] what is this, you know?
What is this kind of like neanderal behavior? That said, that said, look, the same thing [laughter] the mind that you have, it teaches you common sense. Use it. This hat is a very, from what little I've seen of her, I've not watched I've seen some tiny clips of her.
very provocative. You know, this provocator, this who is quite rude uh verbally um abusive towards the religion of Islam, insulting. Look, you are setting yourself up, putting yourself in a hot spot. I watched that um clip of Muhammad hijab.
To be fair, he actually gave a very good analogy in that clip. Um, I can't remember which one it was. I mean, it's the one where he's speaking about apostasy and things. And he says and he quotes that example from Die Hard of Bruce Willis where he says that there's one where die where Bruce Willis one of his kind of tasks [laughter] daredevil or die you know die hard tasks is to go to Harlem full of black people and to c wear this billboard that says I hate the n-word
and to kind of walk around with it. It's a death wish, but that's what he has to do. And you know now and I and to be fair that is a a fair analogy that um Muhammad hijab gives in that particular video and I'm just quoting it because I thought oh the analogy actually fit that look it is freedom of speech and it's true it could be your actual sentiment you know it's not a a right sentiment it's not a justified sentiment but there could be somebody who's just racist and and they're just being true that look I hate all nwords or I hate all
whatever these people or I hate all brown people or I hate all in the UK somebody could say look I hate pakis and they could just go around alam rock wearing it but look if you do that you okay you might be honest [laughter] but there's too much honesty you know this not nice [laughter] This world isn't made for brutal honesty.
It might be freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of movement. But is it likely that some fool is going to come and attack you for it? It's very likely. I mean, if I was a betting man rather, I would bet that the odds are you're going to get beat up. I don't feel it's right for them to beat you up, but I feel you are going to get beat up like that.
You know, some things you have this comes back to this brain. You know, if you're going to wear flash jewelry and walk around a particular area that is known for robberies and for muggings and you're going to go and flash bunch of cash around. Now, I believe it's that it for anybody to rob you is categorically wrong and unacceptable by all standards.
But do I believe it's going to happen? I believe the likelihood if I was a betting man is that you're going to get robbed. So look, it's, you know, use that. It comes back to that same thing. What distinguishes us, criticize, critique religion, but be a bit weary as well. Like if you're going to go to a place full of all kinds of people and go, "Haha, God is this.
Allah is this. Haha, do this to Allah, do that to the prophet, do this to just be weary. That looks some fool, some idiot, you know, might not be as civil as you. So just take those precautions. You know, if you want to do that, then do it on YouTube, do it on, you know, on Google, do it on your website, or do it at a particular place where you have security.
But if you're going to do it just openly in a park where everybody just shouts and screams all day, you know, I I think, you know, I'm none the wiser here. There's no, you know, it's not it's a very foolish thing to do if you ask me. But hey, it's a free world, huh? [laughter] Where would the how would the intelligent be set apart if it wasn't for the fools?
You know, we need to distinguish. [laughter] So let's move on. Will Mui Abu debate any Salafi scholars? Bring any Salafi scholars to debate me. I will debate any Salafi scholar on their There you go. Open challenge. Open challenge. Challenge. I give the challenge.
Uh and if they want to just come on my mind trap, anybody who upholds the and is learned in it, I give them the challenge. They can come on my mind trap. I will openly I will leave them speechless. [laughter] Hi this one. They'll forget their they'll be like I I just want them to come and prove their to be valid from only the Quran.
Remember the condition Quran just just only only I guarantee you none of them can do it. None of them can do it. I've got that much confidence in it. They can put all their minds together, have one spokesperson. You know, I had this guy turn up once, a Medina graduate, and we had this meet up and he came to debate me.
Oh, he was left speechless. He literally couldn't speak like he was [laughter] like naughty naughty. Right. So they won't debate me on these things. Muti is my favorite Muslim. Gio Gio, right? So I love the confidence. The confidence is well placed.
I guarantee they won't be able to prove their from the Quran was sunnah. Quran was only okay. Nothing else. I don't want no dada's quotes. I want just the Quran ornah. You prove your to be valid, right? As you as you preach it to be a must. I'll debate you on it. Jo, right?
You won't be able to do it. I guarantee it. I can to that extent that I can swear by Allah they will not be able to. Not I mean not conclusive not I don't mean they'll just say oh look this means this and no no no clear clearnah or sunnah clearly not a single they won't be able to prove it you know the way they have the right they'll go to the school of medina jalain is one of and ali yep that's correct I'm not sure if that was the question Daniel Ramirez as you're doing
it. Who are the are the Arabs as it's understood in the time of the prophet? Can you provide some context in light of the verb uh in light of the verse that is found in surah Toba verse 97? right now. Let's [clears throat] see. We've got verse 97.
[snorts] Oh, right. And then it goes on to say, then it goes on to say,
right here. Now this here, right? So just translating that the are the worst of disbelief and hypocrisy and more dis and more likely that they do not know the the transgressions against God. um or his messenger and Allah is indeed most knowledgeable, most wise and they are from the who who take what they spend as a as a kind of form of indebtment
like they kind of indebt you with it. uh and they try to await your moments of weakness to exploit that because you're kind of indebted to them and then Allah says that you know rather these things are against them and Allah is all knowledgeable all hearing because hearing because of what they Allah is saying that because of what they plot and when they whisper their secrets and from those people who believe in Allah and the last day and they take what they spend as a form of getting
close to God, right? and it and and the and salawatin as a form of see here it's interesting because salawat is used with as a sense of purification for them but a closeness with the prophet wasawatul and this kind of peace of mind that they give the prophet that they want to basically they're doing it sincerely for God and to help the prophet that indeed it is an act of worship uh and Allah will envelop them with his mercy.
Indeed, he's all forgiving, most compassionate. Now, these verses, who are the that Allah is speaking of, he's speaking of the kind of tribes that were in the hij and I suppose expanded out as well, but that weren't under established rule. So in the southern kingdoms you had um Arabs that were like a kind of civilization.
They weren't very tribal. I mean they had tribes but they were more a settled people and they had like centuries of civilization the that way predates Islam. So you had that and then you've got oh right the northern kingdoms are a bit like that as well. Then in the middle you've got this whole thing.
You've got the hij to the east. Uh you've got um places um no I was thinking maybe up to Bah but maybe parts of Bahrain may have been settled but you've got this whole region where they there were the kinder kind of tribes as well and but a lot of Arab tribes are still quite nomadic as in they may be semi-ettled but they're not really settled.
These people had a lot of a lot to offer cuz they had a lot of milit military strength but they also had wealth cuz they would raid they often raiding kingdom. So they would raid this kingdom got a lot of wealth wealth in money, wealth in stock in these kind of things. So they could help the prophet but some of them were doing it really just as a power play and Allah is exposing that.
And here that some of these that you see they are the most in disbelief. Why? Because you see a people like that are not open to reason that why because the Quran is trying to reason belief and people who are not really so exposed to the voice of reason.
They will be the most harshest in their ways against you. And this is what the verse generally means or it is relating you know it's referring to in my understanding. Uh and why because these people these bedwin eyes these are the are the bedwin these kind of nomadic people that still move around they raid people. they do things um they're very difficult to to kind of show reason to.
Uh Muisab, have you read Juan Coo's book on the prophet? What do you think? I've heard great things about it. I haven't read it yet. No. Right. So, uh, Kiwi Rockstar says, "Please answer." I'm not sure what the question is to answer. Let me just go back, take a look. Nope, I can't see a question.
I hope that was the question. Right. Uh, Mui, I am Sharif. Andrea Alak says, "I am a US Catholic guy engaged to a desi Muslim girl." [laughter] You dude, look at all the intricate [snorts] as a genealogologist.
I have proven I am parents finally accept me. Can a Christian claim Sharif or say it status? [laughter] [clears throat] Okay, this sharif status is more a political thing. It's not really something that Islam inherently brings with it.
Although Islam from its governance aspect allows the system to kind of create these things for political purposes. So, it's not I'm not saying it's an unislamic thing that Islam doesn't allow for it to be created, but Islam did not bring it. Islam didn't really bring this lineage kind of thing.
Um, can people be aud Muslim? Yeah, people can be aud Muslim. I'm sure there have been many people who descended from the lineage of the prophet who went on not to be Muslim. I'm sure there's been many over the last 1400 years. Obviously, they would be an extreme minority, but still when you're counting millions of people, I'm sure there's many who didn't really believe in Islam, but were ultimately somehow related to the prophet.
But yeah, as to the status then this was something that certain countries did, certain rulers had this. I know um North Africa, Morocco especially did have this modern day Morocco but the Mib in the past had this thing that Shurafha could claim uh a financial entitlement. They had a stipen they had this kind of uh benefit a statutory benefit that was given to them.
this thing. I don't think I in fact I think several Muslim countries still have it in theory but I'm not sure whether they practice it. So I think Pakistan may have something for say because they're not allowed zakat. So there might be something in theory but whether they really get it or not I think is unlikely. Hope that answers your question Sharif.
I Sharif you do [laughter] a check. Sharif is raking in the benefits [laughter] of Islam without embracing Islam. I have remote access. [laughter] You're doing it. You're doing it. Uh Zayn says, "Muy, please answer my super chat.
It was asked a while ago." I'm not sure what it was. I don't know if I can see it here. Let's see. Um saying has followed. Uh can I see anything here? Okay. According to the Quran, there's no such thing as the right meaning all forms of chicken and beef are halal because it sounds pretty backwards, right?
I have a very detailed clip on um on the bame and what are my thoughts on it and it was more about creating [clears throat] [snorts] it was more about demarcating and creating a difference between those who make these offerings to pagan gods.
So Muslims won't today in the world that doesn't really happen and Muslims pretty much along with Jewish people are very few in the world that still make offerings of their food uh as in sacrifice the meat. So I have spoken about the the nature of halal meat that it primary purpose was the differentiation which has dissipated today.
um and isn't really there generally speaking and the secondary purpose was identity which is still there. So therefore I do support halal I do advocate for that but I do understand that because most of the other meat isn't the primary purpose isn't there. So if a person ate it, I I don't feel it would be haram, but I feel because of the identity factor, we should stick to halal meat.
Okay. So for the most part, generally I would personally do that. But if you were somewhere you're traveling or you're doing something and you know it's you ate the other meat let's say non the behame I don't feel it would be haram because the primary factor has disappeared the secondary identity factor remains which I still feel is an important factor uh so I do support it uh and I am in favor of it and I do advocate it I hope that helps but I've got a more detailed very detailed elaborate clip I'll try and make sure it is a clip if it isn't
cool. Um, all right. So, somebody says, "Is it true?" Somebody say, [laughter] you see, the thing is that I've got a detailed clip.
If you watch that, it makes more sense rather than here. I'm not doing justice to the topic, but I go into it in detail. I do advocate for it. I do say I do support halal meat. I do endorse that. That's what we get I get at home. I don't uh go for nonab. But I'm just saying that the primary factor has disappeared today.
So yeah. So I am clearly in support of it, but I'm just saying that I don't think it's uh somebody's speaking about sex before marriage. We have condoms today.
[laughter] This is like It sounds more like one of those ads that we have. [laughter] Are you doing haram? [laughter] [laughter] So yeah.
Mhm. What's going down people? Boycott French hairstyles. What the hell is that about? I don't know what that is. What is a French hairstyle? I don't even understand what the hell that means. Oh, somebody had asked about sing. What do I think about sing now? What do we understand by sing? I'm not sure if I understand the word the way some people understand it. I understand it to mean basically guys who are like doormats [laughter] to to girls.
They're just like absolute pushovers and they is this is this are we on the same understanding or is there a different understanding to sing? you know, like a guy who's a s. That's how I understand that a person who is uh like like is voluntarily is treated like dirt [laughter] by women.
Is that uh is that have I got that right? Is somebody sing equals shik toba? Yeah, exactly. blah blah dignify yourself people you know I feel that look [clears throat] it's weird because the younger generation [snorts] already has a very different perspective to people like me and especially people older than me I'm not saying every single person that's my generation but there are people see we had a different perspective on I suppose
manly liness and femininity as well. And today people ain't really so much like that. They and it's quite normal for them to you know to certain things they feel maybe are toxic. Uh I mean there's some things that we all agree with that for example obviously abuse is wrong. Everybody agrees abuse is wrong.
like hitting it doesn't mean I don't know why people equate this that oh being m oh that kind of masculinity means that you have to hit women or something like that I think that's just being being a knob I mean there's nothing why would somebody that's not what being manly is about but um but there is something distinctively manly that I feel is a a real it's becoming a rarer quality uh in the current younger generation and I feel that they are quite epheminite in
many ways and I suppose they're comfortable with that. So I I I you know it's not it's their life to live you know it's not my life. I mean obviously I [laughter] it would be a disaster for me to I would be like an absolute disappointment [laughter] to me for to live like that. But you know it's their world I guess.
It's their life. It's their they want to be like that. They, you know, there's a very So I suppose that's kind of weird. That isn't necessarily sing, but I suppose that's where the slope begins [laughter] and then [clears throat] it kind of just goes downhill where it reaches this sing. I that's what I assume. I don't know but I I feel that there is this um kind of emasculation uh uh this this this kind of
um yeah this uh epheminization of men that you see a lot of men that are very Yeah. And it's seen almost negative to be that kind of to have that kind of primal uh masculinity. I don't but it's odd, you know, because I feel that deep down um women do love that primal masculinity just as deep down men or real men do love that primal femininity.
they're kind of drawn to it that men when they see femininity they they find it very like irrationally attract like it's not something they reason but they are drawn to it and I feel that women are just the same with that very kind of manliness and the irony is sometimes you get these kind of feminists man-hating feminists who really hate on any men that they see as being macho or this alpha male they hate this alpha male character and they they can't they despise it and they insult it and they they do all of these things, demonize
this character. And yet you'll find many of them are irresistibly drawn to that very same alpha male. And and it's you see they they can't run away from it. It's in their instincts. [laughter] Don't fight the feeling because it's instinctual. You see, it's not just humans. Look at primates. Look at animals.
It's we are but ultimately creatures. We are animals, you know. And it's it's in our nature to be drawn to that. And and I feel that what's happening is a generation is being created where the the these are being washed down. So women are becoming less effeminite.
Uh they're becoming more well women are becoming more masculine and men are becoming more effeminite. So there's kind of like a narrowing of this gender diversity and right people will say it's not gender but I mean to me it is gender right so uh there's a narrow narrowing of this and although it may work here you may get a world where there's majority of people are not men are not very masculine anymore but I feel on a global scale that puts them in a very handicapped position Because remember, the rest of the world
is still just as raw [laughter] as mother nature. So you might just be in your cosmopolitan place, okay? But in the world, you know, you'll you'll be very vulnerable, I think. And I don't know, I just feel that because you see, with it comes a whole mindset, comes everything.
So I don't know. I but each to their own. If people want to live like that, if people want to be the, you know, they want to as men not be very masculine and they feel that it's all about being very soft and [laughter] they want to go around just hugging trees and doing all of that, then I think fine, you know, gioto live and let live.
But I just feel that it's it puts them in a very handicapped position because in society there will always be those people who will still live up to that raw lifestyle. There will still always be alpha males out there. So all you're doing is just demoting yourself [laughter] voluntarily. Yeah. But I I don't know.
I I find myself, you know, with these views in as a I find these views to be part of a dying breed. Now in this part of the world, I find myself in an extreme minority that feel that way, which is surprising. [laughter] So mi is beauty an illusion.
Can we find beauty? I don't think beauty is an illusion. Uh is beauty. Uh salt the I only support Muy and insult the rest of the men. [laughter] Karema, you're doing it. You're doing it. Look at that. Much love. Much love. These are the kind of supporters people.
[laughter] No, don't hate men. Don't hate men. You know what it is? Honestly, as some advice, I think people in general don't try to generally any kind of hatred a person has. Look, we're human. We can't help sometimes. You might hate on certain things, but try to always mitigate it. Keep it to an utmost minimum. Trust me that life will always be better with the least amount of hate you carry around.
Sometimes I do see I do feel like h like I see sometimes online posts and I see things and sometimes they are and I say this to women and I say this you know from my heart that I see sometimes some women and maybe some I I definitely not maybe I feel that somewhere along the line they've been hurt by men and maybe repeatedly hurt by men and what's happened is it's led them to unfortunately maybe hating men but it's not a you know it it ultimately any kind of hateful sentiment that we carry
ultimately harms us so I would say jettison these things and it could be any hatred you know it could be bigotry it could be racial hatred could be any kind of hatred that we carry it harms us it's baggage it's slowing us down it's sinking us so we need to learn to kind of at least jettison either all or as much of it as we can. Life will always be better. You see, life is always better with the opposite gender.
It's always better. I mean, look, I say these things, these are my views about look how I see the world and stuff, but look, even if you don't, you don't need to see it my way. Younger generations see it differently. You know, it's their stab, you know, it's their life. It's their world. It's a different world. I It's all good. It's all good.
Uh Birmingham or London? Definitely Brum Braum town it is people. Definitely. You know London is just the name I give it to that you know London when it comes to the name. It just there's class in the name. You know where are you from? I'm from London. [laughter] There is you know some things just have class to the name.
London has that with it, the name, but the actual lifestyle, I I I don't think, you know, it's just way too um congested. There's uh if if you love driving, it's horrible. You can't park anywhere. Roads, it's ironic because the roads are so crammed. They're so small. You know, many of the residential roads, it's like ridiculous.
and they want it's like a one-way street except it's two ways but really only one car can fit on it because parking on both sides. So it's like if a car comes from that side just causes everything to it's a nightmare and I think it's just designed to keep people on the tube and I don't know I I honestly don't that's the aspect of it I don't like. It's overpriced. Obviously, much of the UK is overpriced, but London is extraordinarily overpriced.
I mean, you could live in a semi- detached house in Birmingham, which is the second city of the entire United Kingdom. It's a huge city, Birmingham. It's not small. It's like over a million people live here, but still you could buy a semi- detached house here. [laughter] Or you could buy like a poor mason like a very poor half a house or terrorist house [laughter] in London.
I mean that's the difference. Wow. Cool guys. I think somebody said the Indian actor Sanjay Dat is a Husseini Brahmin. Wow. I don't know if that's true, but if it is, wow, that uh it's interesting. Uh we're ina she look at this.
I'm going to There you go. No abusing the mods. Okay. No abusing anyone on my thing. There you go. Got put in timeout. Miy, my super chat. I'm sure I answered all the super chats. Yeah. Uh, right. Let's go on to Can you invite uh Howie Hawkins? Howie Hawkins? Who is Howie Hawkins?
[laughter] Anthony, you harami. [laughter] I can't read his question out. People, it's not appropriate. You know this one. What's a super chat? Super chat is these these wonderful people sending [laughter] they send a super chat right on YouTube.
Let me find somebody says can you recite the Quran in the shower? you I mean you physically can but it's very bad etiquette to do something like look the Quran is has a sanctity to it. I don't mean if you just subconsciously kind of you know just by habit recite something that's different but I mean you intentionally okay I'm going to now recite the Quran whilst I have a scrub.
Don't do things like that. That's not right. The Quran has a respect and etiquette and you know it has these adab towards it and a person should recite the Quran especially if it's intentional not just like by force of habit or somebody just reads a particular verse not you know whilst they drift away that's fine but I mean intentionally setting about to do a task person should recite the Quran with or you know with respect so yeah no I don't agree with that at Uh, Sik says, "You're doing it.
Much love for the super chat. Just out of love, Zub 200 stars." Gio Gio Zub Gut has said, "Watched your role on reason and religion. Wondering what was your personal reasoning for the existence of God and the Quran being his divine word." I do have a a video on that. I do explain that. Look, my understanding is I do. But to sum it up, do watch my video.
But to sum it up briefly, I honestly feel that just by having consciousness, it is impossible that we I feel just were from like consciousness cannot just come from just nothing. To me, it is reflective of the transcendent divine to me.
And then from all world religions worldwide, let's say the top six or however you want to put them in the top league, it is only Islam that stands the test of reason for me. Um, moment. Do schizophrenics have profound religious insight? Many have religious delusions and many prophets are accused of being mad. That's an interesting point. Although I don't think it's a necessary follow.
I don't think if you have schizophrenia it means you necessarily must have divine insights but I feel it's plausible I feel it's plausible that people you know they say um you know in the temporal lobe certain neural activity has been high with certain uh what are accused of being disorders um or sorry what are what are disorders certain disorders and so could it be it's also linked neural activity, high neural activity in the temporal lobe is also linked with high religiosity.
And so therefore, could it be that there's an overlap? I think there could be an overlap, but there it's not, you know, it's not a causitative demonstration. It may be a correlation, if that makes sense. Rockstar, how do you like your eggs? Sunny side up. Definitely [clears throat] right people my throat before it goes let's do let's get to uh Daniel not all memons are Cindi that is true they're not
right Dro said I like my eggs fertilized [laughter] or at times not fertilized [laughter] you will be like Here comes the CSA, the child support agency. [laughter] I'm joking. Yeah, joking, man. Where's your sense of humor? Sense of humor.
All right, so he paid $2 for that question. He's doing it. Let's get to the masala, people. The masala. So, what is going on, people? What is going on? So our belawed our below let's get to on moment. All right.
Our beloved chria Allah Allah Allah none other than people you know the one I've shown you before that you can't forget obviously [laughter] [gasps and sighs] Mr. One thing, do you think they're going to write this in his biography?
[laughter] What is it? They're going to say that [laughter] He he arrived at this mam that he arrived at. I mean it could be fasting.
God knows you know naughty naughty. So anyway, tonight our beloved Sheh Wza wsa makbul mak mak not the makbul from uh miraur that's makbul isn't it makbul mak right this one different makbul hamza wal mak chri sab aka humpty dumpty [laughter] so what's been going on right we have had Todd Sab was on a
zoom webinar which was to do with the finality of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. the finality of prophethood with the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Now this is really a it's the usual dio annual thing which is done against the kadanis.
Okay, if you want to do it, fine. You know, basically it's to show why we believe the prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam was the final prophet and there can be no other prophets after him. [laughter] The dumb thing here is their founding father of the [laughter] molana actually his fatwa was they can be prophets after the pro [laughter]
irony but anyway and which ironically the kadanis use against them but anyway look if that's fine you you know pimics You want to do a webinar, you want to speak about the finality of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. I think fine you know you want to create an awareness that we don't believe in uh we believe he was the false messiah.
Fine. You know I don't think you know I think that's absolutely fine. There's nothing wrong in that. I don't believe in I believe he was a false messiah. I'm happy to to have that dialogue and to kind of say that look so they have this webinar a bunch of different it's about 3 hours long a bunch of different molanas on the uh the only one I recognized was uh I recognized obviously Chri Humpty Dumpty but I recognized also uh Mui Abdul Rahman
Manger was on Okay. Now, so they're talking about why the Kadani claims are wrong. But then Wb comes on. Now he comes on and he decides to speak about the the second coming of Jesus Christ. Why? Because somehow this is the argument. You know the funny thing is the Messiah complex. You know this is the irony.
The whole khadani belief structure is built on the messiah complex. It's built on the coming the awaited coming of a messiah. So people like me don't believe in the messiah uh complex and we don't believe in awaiting a messiah. But somehow they feel attacking the kadanis is proving that there's going to be a second coming that we're awaiting.
I this is so ironic. It's so dumb as a response to the Kadanis. But anyway, and Gulam Kadani actually affirmed [laughter] the coming of Christ. He actually said, "Of course, you're meant to be awaiting a Messiah." And then later on, he claimed he was that Messiah. So, if he was to deny the second coming of Jesus or deny a Messiah, his whole argument would collapse.
So if anything the true answer to the let's say uh question is saying that there is no messiah to come which is what did and other scholars of India at the time did and which is what people today you know you've got javeed ahmed ramed you've got sheikh Adnan Ibraim you've got people like yours was truly uh we clearly say that there is no messiah to come.
But anyway, he does this whole thing and his is focused his half an hour or so is focused on why there is a second coming and anybody who disagrees with this is ultimately a kafir. Okay. [laughter] Right. So if I just bring up let's just one moment
that that the return of Isaam his descent from the heavens before the end of time is uh is narrated by Tawat is narrated by Tawat and uh you know this is also not to beat a dead horse but uh uh our acquaintance from uh our acquaintance from Birmingham is very fond of mentioning an opinion uh uh that yours truly The is a a third tier book of Maliki fatwa which basically survived and transmitted to us mainly through the bay
and of that it's mentioned that I imal considered that died um and that book is not a a book that is even a reliable book of Maliki fatwa the burden of proof for the burden of proof for establishing is far greater greater than the burden of proof for establishing. Uh and so all it is is nitpicking, random narrations and cherrypicking them and trying to kind of make your own uh make your own conclusions uh uh based on cherry-picking which is important.
This is like an important you know side thing to to remember. Not every difference of opinion is a difference of opinion that is respected in the only the one that's built on some sort of proof and some sort of otherwise people have differences of opinion about all sorts of things is coming back as to whether the's cover should be black or it should be a different color.
One can have a discussion as to what the best way can have a discussion as to what anyway [laughter] that's like a to pray your after the but no one can truly in earnest suggest that the uh you know that thea is you know in point Indiana why because there's just too much evidence that comes together to corroborate that [laughter]
[gasps] was anybody I was distracted for the first part. I was distracted by the saga mark which was over there. I just didn't know how does one do sa over there and I don't get it. Do you do you how you you haramies? I'm being genuine. I'm honestly trying to figure that out. Let me get that to [laughter] Wait, wait, wait, wait.
And this isn't the first time that huzur beloved beloved has said uh spoken about me but just a quick point there it's mut said otherwise abd who was his [laughter] you know abdar the dawn legend of malim who we write and love what does he say in is
it's he does not say it's okay he says so the the point is that the thing by the way a little quick point I offer him or any a dialogue on this anyone they if it's this easy he goes on saying we've about so many hadith and we can prove it like this and we can prove it like that.
It's unquestionable. It's clear in the Quran. He says there isn't a single verse in the Quran that says there's going to be a second coming. But even if there is, I'm happy to have that discussion. Come on live and we will have this discussion. There is no such verse in the Quran. Utter lying. Utter lying. These people are not a single verse in the Quran that says that they twist these words and they say this word here means this and this means this.
Where does it say in the Quran? If such a big event what God forgot to tell you. Anyway, he says there's so much evidence. So much evidence. [laughter] I I think he's mixing evidence up with food. [laughter] I think he's mixing up with cupcakes. ayri cupcake right this is not [laughter]
cupcake this is not there there are no ev and yes there are so many hadith that are transmitted by abuhura and I mentioned even the hanfi madhab said abuhura is a is a raw we have to be weary of this was the early hanafies before he got proper institutionalized just and these people they were on the ball they said that we put him a bit lower down with the companions. He's not from the learned companions.
We have to be weary of his hadith. This is why they rejected a lot of his hadith. They said they go against reason. What we write, what would he know? Hamza, this, you know, Chudri cupcakes, he hasn't even read anything. He's not like a well-trained scholar. He just dresses like that to kind of cover up for himself, to make up for the shortcomings. This, check this out. I'll put this here.
This the jam of ununas people which was known as the musaf of the Malikia the Quran of the Malikia was called in its day and age one of the major reliable texts that you can see right I've got it it's up there you won't be able to see it's off it's on the shelf above right this right the jam ofnunas he'd never heard of you know when he came to the UK and he was having this discussion he never even heard of it that's Like somebody saying, "I'm such a boxing sports fan, but I've never even heard of Mike Tyson.
Never even heard of him." [laughter] Ah, Ununas is one of the four people from here who Khalil bases his on. I've never even heard of him. If you've read, he mentions mentions him in the How would have they read? These people have read baby.
We haven't read. We've taught the what these people don't what do they you know I next week I'll speak about Masari him and Shad Masi they don't know jack about Malik. I openly challenge them. They can they want to discuss Malik. Discuss Malik with me. Discuss Malik with me.
They go on about this mash thing. I open debate challenge the mash thing on the Malik. Debate me on it. None of them can debate me. that shi masi going on failed academic bloody can't secure himself any post of academia going on about me being a kafir I'll set I'll set aside a different masala segment for him any thing he wants on malik he can choose the topic call me to it we'll have a debate any single topic
within malik he himself self is studying with Mashiah who my students are studying with Ashma and these baby baby texts which we taught years ago they're studying them now what do they know about Malik they haven't even read the in their lives I'm deciding when I should start teaching it [laughter]
these people what do they know so anyway but coming back to this topic and he says oh the isn't a reliable thing the here I im Malik says he quotes him about Jesus and I've shown this before ma he died and he was 33 years of age but he says oh the is reliable is reliable al jud known as dada al jud means the granddad is he reliable He's only one of the four who relies on another one that
you probably don't know. You you you obviously ununas you don't know who he is from the German is one of the people who Khalil relies on. He's one of the the daddy he's the granddaddy of the madhab. It took him over 20 years of his life to write this uh this major text in he was the the supreme judge of the Malikis in his day and age.
Is he barking away? Did he not know? He didn't know what to include in his book. He's drafting the uh unreliable things and putting them in his book. What? What does he actually know? This This is the dumbness that these people come to.
And this isn't the first time. You've got him here as well. And make him even famouser than he already is and even more glorious and more YouTube followers and more that none of that stuff bothers me. Inshallah. Inshallah. If he's using it for for Dean, it will be good for him in this world and in the hereafter as well. I have no problem with any of that. Even our friend the two-eyed dal from Birmingham, see two-eyed dal, you know, I [laughter] he would give all sorts of weird aberant fake positions.
I never said anything. It's only when he started spouting the kufur uh in making in that is dead and he won't come back etc. Uh which is which is which is a far worse statement than what this individual made. Um even though both are bad and they're both in the same they seem to be progressing in the same uh line of badness but one is so there you can see not only in in these things calling me a kafir or calling this they're the two-eyed the [laughter] you you teasing me you you're teasing me so today he gives
us much entertainment but He doesn't stop there. You see, Chri cupcake, [laughter] he goes further. He also shares with us uh in you know transcendent values of the art of love making.
[laughter] No, I don't make this up. You know this our beloved speak about the love. What this one? Let's see. Let's see what Cupcake has to say. Right. So, you've got here for all of us. You mentioned that uh uh as kids they saw that the sheets, you know, had like a small slit in it and that uh those were the sheets that uh their grandmother showed them that that they used to use back in the day, the bed sheets.
Why? Because [laughter] Is that nothing? Is that is the Oh, yeah. I I I need this tutorial. [laughter] [laughter] Slit.
What? What? What's this advice? Let's go back to his he mentioned that uh uh as kids they saw that the sheets you know had like a small slit in it and that uh that those were the sheets that uh their grandmother showed them that that they used to use back in the day the bed sheets. Why? Because they considered the they considered the act of making love to be so abhorentt and so spiritually foul that uh it's only allowed only for the minimum amount of time it takes in order to make uh to to procreate and then afterward a person should immediately uh repent from it.
[laughter] How do you imagine that? You go into a room and the other person's dressed as a ghost [laughter] Halloween. [laughter] You're like, but seriously, this is [laughter]
[gasps] So you're like, "Yeah." [laughter] And then you get the slit and you go like this and they go, "Look, one eye the [laughter] [laughter] [gasps] guys. One more time. We got to We got [laughter] learn the adab.
Learn the adab. Sheh is speaking every calorie matters. [laughter] He mentioned that uh uh as kids they saw that the sheets you know had like a small slit in it and that uh those were the sheets that uh their grandmother showed them that that they used to use back in the day the bed sheets. Why? Because they considered the they considered the act of making love to be so abhorent and so spiritually foul [laughter] that uh it's only allowed only for the minimum amount of it takes in order to make uh to to procreate and then afterward a person should immediately immediately [clears throat] repent from
it. Immediately [laughter] sat on a [music] wall Humpty Dumpty. [laughter] [music] [laughter] His love through true love.
He hasn't changed [laughter] means obviously he's good friend loyal elephant in the movies. [laughter] No, y elephants are very intelligent beings.
Honestly, it's just self-conscious. You know, [laughter] they are what's I'm being honest. Yeah, I've got a book here somewhere to prove it. Look at this. I've got this book. Inside animals hearts and minds. [laughter] All right, people. You know what? We're going to wrap this up. [laughter]
It's been awesome. It's been epic. But you see this is Chri Cupcake. He doesn't bar [laughter] that's why no not learning you know not learning but I'm serious about the offer. If they want a discussion they want a debate and come on life man. Come on my mind trap man.
