00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			What's the situation after? Yeah?
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			Running late to your emperor as usual. Sir,
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			have you got a passport?
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			At
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			the airport right now, and we're heading off
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			to meet the scholars.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			Good. We got some very important questions to
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			ask, and we're gonna keep posted in Sharva.
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			Assalamualaikum, warahmatullahi wa barakatuh, brothers and sisters. InshaAllah,
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			what we're doing now, we're traveling,
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			to the scholars in order to get a
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:18
			few,
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			questions answered.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			What we're basically trying to do is bring
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:25
			back to life what the Sahaba used
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			to do. When an issue pops up and
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			there's something that we don't understand that we
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:32
			refer it back to, that's called especially the
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			contemporary issues and the stuff that are revolving
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			around us. Imam al Bukhari
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			has got a whole chapter in a
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			Sahih where he says
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:44
			The chapter
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:47
			of traveling when a contemporary issue, the current
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			issue pops up and also to try and
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			teach your family after you get the answers.
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:54
			Brothers and sisters, it's not new news that
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			the Muslims are suffering around the world, whether
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			it be in the east or the west.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			And we're already at that stage where our
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:01
			safety and our security
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			is actually being threatened. What does the Quran
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			tell us to do in this situation?
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			When we go to surah al Nisa, we
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			actually find that Allah
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			specifically says
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:15
			that when issues of security and safety
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			and fear may come to us,
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			when this news of safety and security and
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:20
			fear
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:27
			reaches us. Allah said if only
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			if only they took it back to their
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:29
			messenger
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:30
			and
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			the scholars who are placed in authority
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:36
			amongst them. That's why we're going to Kuwait.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:39
			We're going to speak to the scholars, the
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:39
			ulama,
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			who are gonna sit with men that have
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			studied this religion
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			for years years years.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:46
			Okay. So we landed in Kuwait
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:48
			in the morning,
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			and brother Mubarak,
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:51
			may Allah preserve
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:53
			him. He was our host,
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			prepared a really nice meal for us.
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			And straightaway, I started to see something unique
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			about the people of Kuwait. I noticed that
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:03
			these people,
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			they take
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:05
			hospitality
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:07
			extremely seriously.
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:10
			One particular incident that I remember inshallah for
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:11
			the rest of my life was the brother
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			Mubarak was driving us around his neighborhood
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:14
			and
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:16
			there was an uncle
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			and He was basically holding some food that
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:22
			he just probably got for himself. Saw us,
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			realized we're foreigners, didn't know that, you know,
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			we're any YouTube guys or speakers from the
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			UK. Nothing like that. Just random foreigners to
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:32
			them for they know we have nothing to
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			do with that or just random guys. And
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			he's like no, my food is your food.
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			Please take it. Please come inside.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			This is we're random strangers but he wants
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:41
			us to come in and he wants to
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:42
			accommodate
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:42
			us.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:50
			So obviously
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			we basically planned
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:54
			this trip,
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			to actually travel and go meet some of
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			the Mashaikh in Kuwait.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			And Wallahi, to be honest for me this
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			was like a first time experience.
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:05
			I mean, being in the UK,
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			where you have people that can teach the
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			religion of Islam, I've never actually known how
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			it feels to really strive and struggle
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:14
			to go and seek knowledge like we hear
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:16
			about the salaf from the past. You know,
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:19
			they would travel for months days weeks,
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:22
			to go from one city to another city
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:23
			just to hear one hadith
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			of the Prophet alaihis salatu wasalam.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			So for me you know, I was actually
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			very excited. This was my first
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			ever experience
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:34
			going to visit
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:36
			the scholars.
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:38
			The scholars of the religion
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:40
			are the most important
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			and most virtuous people on the face of
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:44
			this Earth today
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:48
			Allah SWT said that He lifted the believers
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:51
			in rank amongst everyone else and from the
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			believers Allah lifted the scholars, the people of
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:53
			knowledge.
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:55
			And the reason that we're going to the
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			scholars
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:57
			is because these are the people that we
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:00
			learn our religion from, people who've studied the
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01
			religion for 40, 50 years.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			1st, Sheikh that we went to go see
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:07
			was, none other than, Sheikh Faisal Al Jassim.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			And, wallahi,
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			I've heard so much, and for me it
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			was a pleasure to know that I was
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:15
			actually going to meet him. So the first
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:17
			question that we wanted to ask the Sheikh
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:17
			was,
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:18
			Sheikh,
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:20
			who's a scholar?
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			Like how do you identify what a scholar
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:25
			is? Because in the UK everyone claims to
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			be a scholar. So all the general people,
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			they cannot say who's scholar and who's not
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:29
			scholar.
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			The people who know the knowledge,
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:35
			they know who's the scholar.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:36
			Scholars,
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:39
			you can know them through many ways.
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:41
			First of all,
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:43
			you can know them
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:44
			from their
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:45
			past.
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:47
			The scholars
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			produce colors.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:51
			Who are their teachers?
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:54
			From where they they get their knowledge?
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:57
			Who know them from the big major schools
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:58
			in Islam.
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:00
			You can have the scholars
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:02
			through their books,
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:05
			Even though you sometimes you don't know him.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:08
			Or where is he? Is he in in
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			in our time? He is in the past,
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			but from the books,
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			you know that he's yes. So the people
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			the scholar says, okay. Just write
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:17
			and give.
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:20
			When you write, the people know. The scholars
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			will know. Do you have knowledge or don't
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:22
			have knowledge?
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:25
			The scholar follow the scholars.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			This is also one way to know the
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:28
			scholars.
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:33
			This, the scholar, he cannot bring new things
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			that the scholar
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:36
			didn't say didn't talk about.
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:39
			If somebody claims something, which is we don't
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:41
			see the scholars in the whole Islam, up
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:42
			until now,
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			saying what he says. This is
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:48
			right away, you know that this is wrong.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:49
			Because what does this mean?
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:53
			This means that all the scholars, they were
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:53
			ignorant.
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:57
			They didn't know the truth until this man
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:57
			comes,
		
00:07:58 --> 00:07:58
			and they
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			know the truth.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:07
			What he said,
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:11
			his his mashaikh said. What his mashaikh said
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:13
			is what their mashaikh said. Because Islam,
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:16
			how would you how
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:20
			Quran how how Quran reached us? Through what?
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:20
			Transmission.
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:21
			Transmission.
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			Same thing. How does knowledge?
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:25
			Through transmission.
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:27
			So Quran through transmission.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:29
			Sunnah through transmission.
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:32
			The interpretation of Quran and Sunnah through transmission.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			So all these
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37
			are through transitions. So because this this scholar
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			says, don't gain your knowledge from the books.
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			You have to have what? A teacher. And
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			this teacher has to gain the knowledge from
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:45
			the teacher.
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:48
			And this teacher up to the prophet Muhammad
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			As you said, in the west, they comes
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:53
			they consider, do we have and this man
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:56
			is Okay. Let me see his first 4,
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:58
			let me see his past from where he
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:01
			get the knowledge. Let me see his books.
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:04
			Let me see here his fatwa.
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:06
			Okay. Does this fatwa
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:10
			are according to the ulama fatwa, or he's
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:13
			bringing something new that Hazmi said? Sometimes they
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:16
			say something ulama warned against it. It's very
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:18
			important that we don't misplace
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			the title of scholar and give it to
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:24
			someone that doesn't deserve it. It will cause
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			chaos and catastrophe. The same way if you
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:28
			give the title of a doctor or a
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:29
			surgeon to a person who isn't a doctor
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:31
			or surgeon. The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:32
			told us
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			If the matters are now brought back to
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:39
			other than his people, then wait for the
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:41
			hour. We should be asking the scholars,
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:44
			who the scholars and those who we should
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			take knowledge from? Sheikh, basically what it is,
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			I want to ask a question,
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:49
			maybe you can advise us and also the
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:52
			rest of the people, when you started embarking
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			upon seeking knowledge, what is the type of
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:55
			methodology that you took? Like, what are the
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			steps that you took in order to,
		
00:09:58 --> 00:10:00
			seek the knowledge in order to maybe reach
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:01
			where you've reached now,
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			some advice that might benefit us and the
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			rest of the people as well? First of
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:06
			all, I'm not a scholar.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			I'm not even a student of knowledge.
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			I'm
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			very interested in the knowledge.
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:14
			So this questions,
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:17
			I think if you ask some scholars, you
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:19
			will get a good answer. But
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:22
			I ask scholar Sheikh Fawazam, Sheikh Salas Hamid,
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:23
			all other scholars.
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:26
			But anyway, I'll tell you what the scholar
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:26
			says.
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:28
			Okay?
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:30
			Yeah. And don't make me as an ideal
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:31
			or something.
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:33
			Even though I wrote some books,
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:35
			but
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:37
			from my life,
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:42
			whatever I do, whatever I make fatwa or
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:43
			publish a book, I should
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:46
			get the advice from the scholars.
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:49
			All what I've read, all what I've that
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:52
			I've wrote, what I've published, I didn't publish
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:54
			anything except
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			until I go to the scholars and say,
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:57
			okay, read this.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:10:59
			And not one scholar, 1 or 2 or
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:02
			3. Even though the Sheikh, he has
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:04
			all the ability to answer the question that
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:05
			he was just asked,
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:08
			he is telling you now to refer it
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			back to those who are bigger than him.
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:12
			The likes of Sheikh Salih al Fozan, Sheikh
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:13
			Salih al Luhaydan,
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:15
			and other than him who are living today
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:17
			in our time. That is the humbleness
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:21
			of the ahlul ahl. That is the humbleness
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:22
			of the people of knowledge.
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:25
			So after meeting Sheikh Faisal,
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:27
			the next Sheikh that we went to go
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29
			see was Sheikh Salem.
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:29
			Now,
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:33
			again, you know, both of these mashaikh, they
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:36
			are known to have been coming to England
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:37
			quite frequently,
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:39
			so they know of the affairs of the
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:42
			people of the UK. Okay so day 2
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:44
			we met Sheikh Salim
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:45
			Abawil
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:48
			and he was serving us tea.
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:51
			That truly look at the etiquettes
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			of the people of knowledge, these are things
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			that we need to implement in our own
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:58
			lives, you know, we start up a, you
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:00
			know, a YouTube channel and we start calling
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:02
			to Allah, we call ourselves da'is and sometimes
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:04
			we become we start to become a bit
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:07
			arrogant. But brothers and sisters, the reality is
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:08
			we are nobody,
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:09
			we are nobody.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:12
			If a man like him, Sheikh Salim, can
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:15
			sit in a room, serve people tea,
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:17
			then wallahi we're nothing.
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:18
			Honestly, we're nothing.
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			And again you can see the Sheikh is
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:09
			really emphasizing on the matter of unity.
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:11
			And he's mentioning that a lot of the
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:13
			disunity in the West occurs
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:17
			primarily because of the lack of us being
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:18
			able to access
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			real legitimate Islamic scholars.
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:24
			Not every unity is praiseworthy. Rather the unity
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:27
			that is praiseworthy, the Sheikh is talking about,
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			that the Prophet is talking about, is a
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:31
			unity that's upon the tawheed of Allah and
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			the sunnah of the Prophet
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:35
			But what's the first thing that the Prophet
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:37
			commanded Ma'ad was to call people to that.
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			So we're gonna work towards that and unite.
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:44
			So the next question that we put to
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:47
			the sheikh was, what advice do you have
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:49
			for people who wanna seek knowledge? And I'm
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:51
			not gonna lie, you really kinda,
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:52
			you know, you
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:55
			kinda hammered us for this one. And it
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:57
			was it was it was well deserved.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:59
			We needed to hear what he said next.
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:32
			So that was
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:34
			a really beneficial meeting. Like I said once
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:36
			again, I learnt from the manners of the
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:37
			Sheikh, his humility and
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:40
			how he wasn't concerned about talking about irrelevant
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:42
			matters. He want to talk about knowledge based
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:45
			matters. He wasn't beaten around the bush. He
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:47
			was basically telling us, you know, you guys,
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49
			people always ask for advice but they don't
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:50
			want to implement it. The
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:53
			Sheikh gave us a good dose of reality
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			Alhamdulillah
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			That's how it should be
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:00
			Now the next Sheikh that we went to
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			visit was Sheikh Hamid Al Hajjari
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			and this Sheikh in particular
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:08
			is an expert in terms of Fiqh and
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:09
			Islamic Finance.
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:11
			So who better to put the question to
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:13
			on the topic of the University loan if
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:16
			it's Halal or Haram then him. I wanted
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:19
			to play devil's advocate with the Sheikh. So
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			I tried to take the position the stance
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:23
			of the people who say that the University
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:24
			loan is an investment and it's Halal and
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:26
			try to argue it from their perspective
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:28
			to be fair because they're not there to
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:31
			present themselves and like I said we are
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:33
			who present what is for us and what
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:36
			is against us. So I wanted to give
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:37
			him the full picture from all angles
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:39
			and you can see what he had to
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:42
			say. Insha'Allah, I'm going to explain to you
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:47
			an image of, a masala at hand that
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:48
			people are discussing.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			We have,
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:52
			basically students who want to go to study
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:53
			at universities
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:55
			who cannot afford
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:57
			or some of them can afford but they
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:59
			wish to find external funding.
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:01
			So what they do is that there are
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:02
			institutes
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:03
			that,
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:06
			give them money to pay for their university.
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:09
			The money goes directly from the institute that
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:11
			is lending the money to the university.
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15
			The student never sees that money himself.
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:18
			But at the end of the student's education,
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:21
			the student has to pay back that money,
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:24
			plus he will pay back an extra amount.
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:29
			And if he doesn't pay this money back
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:31
			and 30 years go by, then the entire
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:34
			debt is wiped off or rather this this
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:37
			this request for money is, is wiped off.
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:39
			This,
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:43
			dealing, does it fall into
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:45
			or does it fall into
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:46
			or,
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:34
			But Sheikh, the,
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:35
			the,
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:38
			the market who's giving the money to the
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			student is owned by the government the same
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:42
			way the university is owned by the government.
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:44
			So the money is really just being moved,
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:47
			some the people argue, from just one person's
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:49
			pocket to his other pocket. It's the exact
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:51
			it's just 1 the same government is moving
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:52
			the money around.
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:43
			That's the initial agreement when you take that
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:46
			money from student finance that you agree
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:47
			that
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:49
			when you take this money in the future,
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:51
			you're going to be paying that much money
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:52
			and also more.
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:55
			And this is a form which is.
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			Like, how the people would come out and
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:01
			give this kind of fatwa. It is shocking
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:04
			to the sheikh, as you can see. He's
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:05
			just finding it very, very hard to understand
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:07
			as to the angle that these people are
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:08
			coming from.
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:32
			The reason we did this documentary was because,
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34
			you know, we're the ones that always saying
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:36
			take the matter back to the scholars. And
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:38
			we're aware that, you know, scholars may not
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:39
			be so accessible
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:42
			to us in the West as they are
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:44
			back home.
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:46
			But we wanted to take the initiatives to
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:47
			start this trend.
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:52
			On a larger public platform like we are
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:54
			doing right here to encourage you guys to
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:54
			consistently
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:57
			take things back to the scholars.
		
00:20:57 --> 00:20:59
			Insha'Allah we're going to be making many more
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:00
			of these trips and these issues that are
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:02
			going on. We're going to take you back
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:04
			to our Ulama, and we're going to present
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:06
			the answers to you just like this. Al
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:08
			Allah, Allah Azzawajal said, the messengers Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			Wasallam said,
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:14
			the mashaikh have been placed upon the face
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:15
			of this earth to connect you to the
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:18
			book of Allah Azzawajal the Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:20
			Wasallam. And what the Sahaba came with, nothing
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:23
			else. That's the only occupation of the scholars
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:24
			here today. Insha'Allah,
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:26
			we see you next time
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:28
			before I leave you totally
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:31
			I just wanted to say a huge shout
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:32
			out and a huge thanks
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:34
			to my brothers from Akifilms
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:39
			Alhamdulillah, they facilitated this documentary for us and
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:40
			we have a wonderful relationship and I want
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:42

00:21:56 --> 00:21:56
