And then you have brothers and sisters, many
other ayaats with the similar meaning that we
just covered.
Uma Kunna Ma'adibeen Hathana Baath Rasoolah. And the
other verse I mentioned, Rasoolah Mubashireen.
Allah
also says,
The guards of the the gatekeeper of the
hellfire will say to these people,
didn't a messenger come to you?
Reciting to you the verses from your lord.
And
warning you of the meeting you will be
having with your lord. They will say Qaloo
balayas.
A warning did come to us, so the
warning was
a proof for them. It was there to
establish a proof for them. And also, also
Allah says,
Oh, Jin and the ins.
Didn't a messenger come to you reciting or
telling you of our verses?
Also Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala quotes, Awanamna amirkumayitalakarrufimandalakarwajakum
Nadib. They didn't give you a life
reminding you
and didn't a Wanna come to
you?
And Allah wasn't going to destroy a village
until
He would send a messenger
to this nation
reciting the verse to them.
And, also, I will show his brothers and
sisters the ignorance
and
that you cannot declare that person to be
a Kafir straight away.
What Ibnu Majah
narrated on the authority of Abdullah ibn Abi
Otha.
And he said, lammaqadima
Mu'aal minasham.
When Mu'aal RadiAllahu Anhu came from Sham,
came back from Syria.
Sajjad Al Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
he prostrated to the Prophet
and we know whether the sisters are prostrating
to other than Allah, you will leave the
fold of Islam straight away. But look what
happened here.
Why is this,
I came to Sham, and I saw them.
They were prostrating
to
their priests and their patriarchs.
They were
frustrating to them.
So
then he said, fawadhatu finafsi anafaradalika
bika. So I wished to myself that, you
know, when I come to you, O Rasoolallah,
I want to do the same to you
because you are more deserving of it.
The prophet he said,
do not do this.
And if I was ever going to command
anyone
to prostrate to Abidil Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
I would have commanded the woman to prostrate
to her husband.
Feminists are not gonna be happy me mentioning
the hadith,
but.
Say the truth even if it gets very
sour. Now, anyways, Mu'ad done a act that
is
shouldn't be done for anyone by Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala.
And we know that if anyone prays straighten
out to Allah, he's left to fold away
Islam.
Ibn Taymiyrah
says, wafirhadithirudurunlabis
In this hadith, you
find that
here, the Prophet
Excuse Mu'adh
That which became apparent from him, that action
that he came or that he done.
And we know now, prostrating to Rasulullah is
Sheikh Akbar.
It is the major shirk that takes a
person out of the foldable Islam.
But when Muhammad done this due to a
misinterpretation
he had,
And he
and he thought that frustrating
in a form of
greeting and also,
you know,
greeting an individual
that,
and it is something that is permissible to
do for
the creation.
Lam yukafirunabisallallahu
alaihi wa sambalwalam
yukthimhu.
And in this case, the prophet didn't declare
him to be a kafir,
and he also,
and
he,
say that he was sinful.
And he clarified to him that the sujood
is for no one other than Allah
You can find it in Majumu Al Fataw,
page 74, volume number 1.
So, the 4th
preventative factor.
4th preventative factor, which is Ataweeh
making interpretations.
At Tawil walmuradu minhu.
What is intended by it is putting a
legislated proof
in other than its face. Be Isti Hadin
it could be due to striving to get
the right answer.
Or Shubhatintan
sha'u'an Adamifahamidalatinas,
or it could be due to a doubt
that has been put against you due to
the lack of understanding
of what the text is indicating.
Oh, he understood it with an incorrect understanding.
He thought that he was correct.
Or he thought that a proof was an
actual proof, but it wasn't a proof.
Maybe sometimes you find brothers and sisters,
and this happens.
A fabricated hadith, A
fabricated hadith.
I personally think this hadith is authentic.
And the Hadith might happen, the Prophet permitted
grave worshiping, and you find some of them
going on about it and using it.
He thought that this was a legislated proof,
so he used it. Why? Because I have
a proof here from the Qur'an and the
Sunnah.
This is a Taawil.
This is a Taawil.
What Taween and Mani'ah and the kind of
interpretation that
prevents a person from falling into Kufarwel Ladhi,
lahumusawwawonfisharaaofluwati,
is that which
has maybe an angle from the legislation or
an angle from the language.
Like how sometimes you find
certain people, they would interpret
certain sifaat
with other than its literal meaning.
Like the hand of Allah
SWT when Allah
told us,
Allah
has 2 right outstretched hands.
Allah
has 2
outstretched generous hands. 2 hands.
Some of them, they said their intended purpose
is Qudra, ability. Some of them said Quwa,
strength. Some of them, they said Allah is
only as 2 bounties or 2 blessings.
So what am I going to do? I'm
going to call this brother up. I'm going
to tell him, how can you say that
Allah
has only 2 blessings? When Allah says in
another verse, forinturuduunamatulayatulsuha,
if you were to count the blessings of
Allah, you wouldn't be able to do so.
You You wouldn't be able to do so.
Here now you find there's a contradiction. There's
a contradiction. There's a contradiction. There's tanaa'u.
You've removed the doubts. You've done Iqamatulhjudjati
wizalatulshuba. You've established the proof, and you also
removed the doubts that he came with.
And then after David persists and he carries
on saying blessing, that's when the ruling is
applied to him.
Ya Khuluu Bintayim
Again, when it comes to the Taweel, the
this
transmission I mentioned earlier,
Majumu Al Fatawah, page 180, volume number 12.
An example of a taweed.
For Imam Muhammad radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu Ta Rahama
Alaihim.
Imam Muhammad Rahimu Allah Ta'ala,
Those rulers who became affected by the jahmee
when they were claiming that the Quran is
created, and they aided them.
We sought forgiveness for them.
With knowledge that
these individuals, these rulers, it didn't become clear
to them that these jahmee, they were denying
the prophet
walajahidunilimajabi
and also negating that which He came with.
Walakintawaloo
for akhturah that they misinterpreted,
and they add, Wa'ala dumunqalaalika
lahu. And they also just blind followed those
who
told them misinformation.
And also sometimes you find that a person,
he strives to get the right answer, and
he might end up falling into Bida'awi with
Fisq
or even Kufar.
So Ibn Taym says,
That which is
correct. The one who strives from the nation
of Muhammad
And he's trying to get the truth and
he makes a mistake, he shouldn't be declared
to be a Kafir.
Rather, his mistake is forgiven.
But whoever now, that which the prophet came
and has been made clear to him,
And he opposes the messenger
after the proofs have become clear,
and he follows other than the way of
the Muslims, the believers. Follow a Kafir. He's
a Kafir.
And no one follows his desires,
and he's insufficient.
He falls short when he comes to seeking
the truth, and he begins to speak about
Allah without knowledge. Oh, wasn't it? He's an
individual who is disobedient, and he's a sinner.
And he said, and he could become a
Fasiqa transgressor.
And he could have
good deeds that outweigh his
sins.
Okay.
And then you have the 5th one now,
which is Anishyan.
Which is anisyan.
Going back to Jacob a k yahoo.
And you can use Jacob a k yahoo
in the issue of Jahr al Zoh.
Bye.
A few weeks later,
after explaining that to him, you find him
sitting with a bunch of converts
and he's saying to know the religion of
Islam tells us that
Zina is halal.
Zina is halal. He's telling everyone, Zina is
halal.
Why has he fallen into it? He's fallen
into his tihan, making something nice haram halal.
And he said it with his tongue, so
it's a problem.
He said halal. Can I say straight away
you're a kafir now?
I need to call him. I need to
sit down with him. I need to explain
to him.
Didn't I say to you 2 weeks ago?
And said, oh, no. I forgot. He says
he says, I forgot. Hari Min Sayda. Let
me go back to them and tell
them. Allah says, Allah says,
Allah do not hold us to account for
that which we forgotten
and also that which we earn.
The Prophet
told us,
Allah has forgiven his Ummah in that which
they have forgotten, that which they have earned
it, and that which they have been forced
on.
Okay. Alfar Khobein and Takfir il a'am walhas.
The difference between the general takfir and the
specific takfir.
Khalashay Ulissami mutayim Rahimullah.
Mutayim Rahimullah Talahe said, fakaddyaqoolul
fiyaluawal
Maqala to Kufra.
A action
or a statement might be kufr.
And
it is said
that
anybody who states
or says the statement of Kufr,
or
does this action,
Manqalikalikalifor
kafir, whoever does this or whoever says it
is a kafir.
O
a Kafir.
So I could say, Whoever does this action,
he is a Kafir. Whoever does this tohirah,
he is a Kafir.
Whoever negates the verse, he's a kafir.
Whoever doesn't affirm the attributes of Allah, he's
a kafir. Generally like that. But if a
specific person, no.
Our brother, Salman,
he falls into one of these things. Can
I straight away declare him to be a
kafir?
No. I need to sit down. The Muwani
al Takfir, I need to take into consideration.
I need to look at it.
I need to advise him. Maybe he's forgotten.
Maybe he's ignorant about it.
I need to look into it.
Specifically, I need to look at everyone's situation
situation specifically.
But the fact that I say whoever does
this is a Kafir, it doesn't automatically
necessitate
that every specific noun is a Kafir. And
this is what is the problem of many
of these Takfiris.
Who?
Just generalize, and then start applying it to
specifics.
Until the proofs are established, again,
So in summarization,
we cannot declare a pattern to be a
Kaf for anyone specific from the people of
the Qibla, based from the people of the
fire,
because of maybe a condition missing or because
of a man, I prevented the fact of,
being,
present.
Now, inshallah, brothers,
manali liyahomu takfir al muqhanif. Who is the
one that
declares
the one who has gone against the nusuz
to be a kafir?
Is it me? Is it you? Is it
every dumb dick and harry? Any random guy
in the cafe? Who is it? Again, there
needs to be a has put down
because wallah has become very loose.
Like I mentioned,
time and time again. Kafir, kafir, kafir, kafir,
kafir.
Some of these brothers like Abu Harima and
Abu Walid and
from Salafi Media,
But the reality of the matter is there's
nothing Salafi about them.
Anyways, we just give out Taqfir as if
it's rafu tickets, as if it's
a small matter.
Who is the one that establishes the takfir?
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala told us in the
Quran, Quran, Wa yidha jahumamruul
minaal khofir darubih.
Allah has always defamed these kind of people,
and when someone pertaining to public safety and
public fear comes to them, they begin to
take things into their own hands.
If only they referred it back
to the messenger
and those who are in authority of them.
Scholars.
They They would have known how the scholars,
they extracted the rulings and the, from the
legislation.
It's not for me and you when something
issue or issue pops up now. A person
who was taken as a person of knowledge,
all of a sudden now is promoting deviance,
is promoting misguidance, is promoting innovation, or maybe
it reached a level of swelling kufr.
Where are the scholars? Relax, brothers and sisters.
Where are the scholars? Why do you need
to be mustaajid?
Prophet
said, and ajilatiminash
shaitaan. What is the rush?
Ajada, hastenness from the shaitaan.
Why is the rush? Take it easy, Wait
for the scholars.
Are you going to lose out if you're
going to if you declare it to be
a kafir now, is there anything positive or
extra benefit you're going to get?
Let the scholars speak. They take their time.
They have ta'ani, as the Prophet said, Ta'ani
min Allah, carefulness
from Allah
Let them deal and deal with their work.
This is their job. They are there to
give their verdicts, especially in these matters pertaining
to public safety and fear.
And,
which I want to conclude with,
so we leave
Al Kufu yakoonamal'awwilfararatkad.
1 can leave the foldable Islam
through a statement,
an action or a belief.
If a person now, brothers and sisters, he
believes that Jesus is the Son of God
and he never ever utters it with his
mouth or he never acts upon it, he
prays, here come, O Sadaqa, he will tell
you. But
he has the belief in himself.
Is this person a kafir? This person lives
the fold of Islam.
Obviously, we don't know what's in his heart,
and we just deal from the apparent, but
with Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, the kafir.
Likewise, if a person utters now a statement
of kufr.
They said a statement of Kufr and they
disbelieved after the imam came to them.
Even though you don't do it with your
actions,
or you don't have in your heart, like
mocking,
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and his message,
we will take this in Nawakid of Islam,
insha Allahu Ta'ala in the 6th points.
That's what we're going to tell, insha Allahu
Ta'ala, later.
It's a statement. There were some of the
in the time of the Sahaba and Allah's
with the Tabooq, they were just joking. That's
why he said in hadith, Inna mankoonna nakhudu
walalaq, And the Prophet wasn't having it. They
didn't mean it as from what they said.
Allah the Prophet
said to them,
no excuses.
You have disbelieved after iman came to you.
So just that mere statement of saying the
statement of Kufr could be the reason as
to why you live in Islam, even if
your actions and your heart is not in
accordance to it.
And likewise, in action, if I step on
the Quran intentionally, that's me. Gone.
That's me. Gone. Even though I don't say
with my tongue or I don't believe in
my heart.
So here you have some of the statements
of the scholars.
Wominanwai'aridatirahkadiyyah
from the types of apostating
in the religion or from the religion
or types of renegotiation
through the belief,
Is that what a person, he intentionally does
with his heart?
Even if he doesn't say it or he
doesn't act upon it?
That he believes in his heart.
He believes that Allah
is poor.
Or he's
stingy.
Or he's oppressor.
Even if he doesn't say it.
And even if he doesn't do anything.
This is a kufr. This is a disbelief.
Bi mujarud hadil akhida bijma'al muslimee.
Mainly with disbelief, and this is with the
unanimous agreement of the Muslims.
And he believes in his heart that one
there is no resurrection
Why nakulamajja
if he had an ace alohakika
on all the verses in Hayat and Hadith
that came in regards to his affair, he
believes there's no reality to it.
If he believes in his heart, even if
he doesn't say anything,
hada kufr murida alil Islam. This is Kufur,
this is Apostation,
and also, Religation from the religion. Narudu Billahi
Bintarik.
And we seek refuge in Allah from this.
Is that Amal, his actions will be nullified.
Wayakoonamaseluwalalalalalalalalakidah,
and his eternal abode will be the fire
because of this one akhidah, this one belief.
And
even if he believes not with his heart,
and he doesn't say it with his tongue,
that Muhammad is not the truthful one, or
or he's not the seed of the prophets,
and there's after him prophets.
Or he believes that the Musayla mad Al
Kaddab is a truthful prophet.
Or he believes with his heart, the Noor
or Musa or 'Isa, or other than them
from the prophets
that they are liars or ahad, or one
of them. This is a post station from
the religion of
Alim Nasimin
said, well, you're ana riddatatakoonum
biatikad wabi'awwilawbilarbitarkihadi
aparbaatul waaridda.
It should be known that
a possibility from the religion,
it is through belief,
through statement,
through actions,
and also through leaving things off.
Hani Arba'at Anuwa. These are 4 types
of apostating. And then he says,
but from the apparent he's a Muslim, mister
Halal Munafiqin, like the situation of the Munafiq.
Watakun al Qulklisti zabillah. When a person leaves
the 4 wisam through a statement,
like mocking Ummaha Azzawajal,
wal khatfir and also insulting, or fidini or
his religion,
and a person leaves the fold of Islam
through leaving,
something like leaving of the prayer.
Wakatarkirhookim
And also leaving up, judging through the book
of Allah Subhanahu because he desires
to do so.
Amma kiraatmaanzalallahuahi
biatikhal.
As for doing it,
as for disliking it, fahibi I tikhal, this
is through belief.
And because of this, he enters it's a
action of.
And you have other scholars, it's all like
Alamatul Fozam
who was who mentioned a similar,
nam who said something very similar. He said,
Oh, and when he was asked this question,
he said something very similar. Now, and this
is what the scholars are upon.
Now, and I've previously seen that Sheikh bin
Bad was accused of Ijap, but this is
his fundamental belief in regards to the matter.
We ask Allah
to benefit us from what we heard. Brothers
and sisters, I think it's very, very vital
that we know this. I don't advise a
person to study namakkadil Islam except that he
goes through these.
Except that he goes through these principles.
Otherwise, Allah I fear, they will come out
of the book pumped up, make it takfir
and tabbiha of the people.
