Abu Taymiyyah – Anwar Awlaki & When My Student & Cousin Were Affected SuicideBombing

Now I'm going to read InshaAllah Ta'ala

how someone is Salif they were

when it comes to

or when it came to the month of

Ramadan. See how I mentioned in the beginning,

brothers and sisters, we're trying to be

like companions,

the tabi'ayn, the tabi'ayn,

tabi'ayn. In everything that we try to do.

It's all good saying that we follow the

Quran and the sunnah

but what is very very important also to

restrict it with the understanding of the Salaf.

With the understanding

of the Salaf.

I can't bring my understanding, or my Sheikh's

understanding,

or another person's understanding.

The Sheikh, that person who went out and

he studied the religion, he's only here to

do what?

To connect you

to what the Prophet

mentions upon the understanding of the Sahaba.

In the Ramadan, how did they adorn themselves?

Because the moment I start giving you my

understanding

or someone else's understanding,

it could be the reason why I become

a lunatic.

And I'll give you an example, and I'm

going to be very straight up about it.

Recent not recently, a couple of years ago,

a family member of mine,

she came out in Facebook and she said,

and she's saying this on a world wide

web, social media,

sunnah,

it could be the reason why you

really

destroy your religion.

She came out on Facebook, it was a

sister, sister, not even a guy with a

sister.

She's promoting on Facebook that it's okay

to go and blow yourself up.

And obviously this hurt, that time I was

still in Yemen, I was trying to, you

know, learn the religion of Allah and because

I know this sister,

it's really, you know, it hurts.

I'm asking you, I'm like commenting,

okay where did you get this from? What

did you do? How did you come to

this conclusion? She's saying that Anwar al Awlaki

told her this. May Allah have mercy upon

him. You know, everyone has these mistakes, and

we ask Allah to forgive everyone who falls

into mistakes. And we ask Allah to forgive

everyone who falls into mistakes. And we ask

Allah to forgive

and we ask Allah to forgive everyone who

falls into mistakes

because He gave her the understanding.

And then when you look at the textual

evidence, the way it was interpreted,

He He was an individual who used to

bring the Quran and the Sunnah

in many of that which he used to

say but then there was that 10%.

It could be the reason why a person,

he goes and he blows himself up.

Wallahi know many people that were affected through

this.

The reason why I'm mentioning this, I'm not

trying to have a dig at him, but

to mention to you that because of the

understanding

of certain texts,

it could either make or break a person.

There was this brother

and asked Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to and

I'm going to mention this because it would

really hurt me to see some of these

young kids here,

to go do something crazy like that.

I used to come to Nottingham quite some

time.

Some of you that might know this,

and just so you are wary

and you don't fall into this.

There was a brother who used to come

to my lesson, I used to come to

Nottingham, there's this Masjid on top of a

shop, I think it's called Masjid Sahaba,

and I taught a whole book there called

Al Mubadhi Al Mufida.

There was a brother who used to record

the lessons,

he was a brother who used to record

the lessons

and now you find his name

all over the newspaper.

Nasih was from here, from Nottingham

And I think it's relevant that I mentioned

it because the chapter is called what? It's

called Rayyan. And this brother was called Rayyan

as well.

So he's shaydum bil kalam, the point is

this brother used

to record the lessons and he was very

close, it was from the students that used

to sit here, right in the front.

He was also

the brother who

recorded

when I had the reminder speaking about suicide

bombing.

The suicide bombing, it goes against our religion,

there are so many narrations from the Sunnah.

Whoever kills himself with a piece of iron,

he's going to be punished with it on

Yomatayama.

He uploaded this online.

What happened was

the lessons were stopped because of some brothers

who were very, very rough and tough. Some

of our brothers who used to study with

me from the Majh,

the people who used to attend the lessons,

they were brothers who were on the fringes

of their religion, some of them newly reverted.

And because of how some of these people

they thought, which was very narrow minded, they

stopped the lesson for whatever reason, don't wanna

go into that. What happened to his brother,

he started being exposed to doubts.

He started being exposed to doubts

and now SubhanAllah that very brother who used

to come very close to me

and write down the lessons

and was from those who was uploading it

onto the internet I knew the issues. Anybody

who studies me will realize

that I'm totally against extremism when it comes

to, you know, killing an innocent soul, suicide

bombing, making a bomb and all sorts.

And then I don't know what happened to

the brother,

he was imprisoned

for making or he wanted to go and

do something like that.

Can you see now the understanding

when you start being exposed to doubts, how

that could change the understanding you have of

certain texts.

Wallahi I will be reading her. Some of

these young kids that are sitting here for

me to find out tomorrow, oh this is

the brother who used to come to your

lesson,

I will send the article of why they

were in Isma'Deen and it really hurt me.

Someone you've been teaching. One of the,

most beloved things to a teacher is that

if his students are benefiting,

and I felt this about the brother, but

then when he becomes
