The transcript discusses the history and implications of the Hadith, which is a situation where Muslims try to engage with Muslims in safe locations, leading to the loss of their freedom of action. The importance of practicing Islam to avoid oppressed and persecuted is emphasized, as it is required to avoid seduction and trial. The sharia law is not applicable in India, and the situation where all non- Muslim countries are free to prayer and pray is seen as obligatory. The sharia law is not applicable in Europe, Canada, and North America, and the situation where every non- Muslim country in Europe, Canada, and North America is now a structural structural problem.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16
			The question is, need some
explanation? I need some
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:21
			explanation on the Hadith where it
is said that migration from a
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			Muslim country,
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			Islamic country or Muslim majority
country to a non Muslim country is
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:33
			prohibited. Can a Muslim from a
non Muslim country bracket India
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:37
			migrate to another non Muslim
country? That Canada?
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:43
			I think, brother who has asked
this question is referring to the
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:46
			Hadith to a hadith, which
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:52
			is reported on the authority of
God, Ruben Abdullah, rally Allah
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:58
			Allah, and it is recorded by
Muslim and a few others, that the
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			best narration
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:07
			in caramelly, we say is Rasulullah
sallallahu wasallam send an
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			expedition to her thumb. And,
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:16
			you know, they were fighting Islam
and Muslims. And when Muslims were
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:22
			trying to engage them, some of
them rush to make sujood you know,
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:27
			in order to defend themselves to
give an impression, they are
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:34
			Muslims. So, but Muslims thought
they were simply pretending. And
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:40
			so they, you know, engage them in
battle and kill some of them. And
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:44
			then Prophet sallallahu wasallam
asked them to give half of the
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:50
			conversation, you know, the blood
money do because of the doubt
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:57
			involved? And then he declared, I
am innocent of every Muslim who
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:02
			recite chooses to stay in the
middle of the Mushrikeen in the
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:07
			midst of the mystery Cain, and
when question why is replied,
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:13
			because, you know, the their fire
do not resemble they're not you
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			cannot distinguish one from the
other.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:22
			This Hadees has been taken by some
groups, and they run with it, even
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:27
			though it is specifically
referring to a situation of
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:31
			warfare between Muslims and non
Muslims, especially the pagan
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			Arabs, who declare war against
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38
			salam, the Prophet salallahu
Alaihe Salam was
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			not allowed to practice Islam in
Makkah.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:47
			And because they were persecuted,
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:53
			although he preserved He was
patient for some time. So the
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:58
			situation get from bad to worse,
finally allows one out Allah
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:04
			allowed Muslims to migrate to
Medina. And when the prophets are
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:09
			allowed us and them, you know left
to babka. He said, You are the
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:15
			dearest place to my heart, and you
are the best place that one can
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:19
			recite on the face of the earth.
If not, for my people are not
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:27
			forcing me to go out, I will not
have left it. So the concept here
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			is Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam
and the Sahaba left for forced to
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:36
			leave Baca, where they were born
and brought up. And then after
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:43
			possessions and properties there,
because of fitna, they were facing
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:48
			this test in their religion. And
it was hard for them to hold
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:55
			firmly to the religion. So you
know the situation this is the way
		
00:03:55 --> 00:04:00
			every companion every sahabi,
every one of the authentic
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:06
			Imams, and the eminent scholars
have interpreted this situation
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			that Muslims are allowed
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:15
			to live in any place they want,
because our Lord Allah will abide
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:21
			by the law. The word belongs to
allows one over Tala and the
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:25
			creation, the humankind are the
servants of Allah. So leave it
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:30
			wherever you feel safe and secure.
And you can practice your
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:34
			religion. And this is what you
know if you read all of this
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:38
			verses in the Quran, where Allah
subhanaw taala asked the question,
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:42
			first of all, you know, under the
in Africa, for whom Monica, the
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:47
			angels when the season the soul of
those who were oppressed, you
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:51
			know, and yet and because of being
oppressed, they could not practice
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:56
			the religion. So the angels will
ask, and I'm talking normal law he
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			was Yeah. They said we were
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			Salafi and we were oppressed, we
had no choice. So the question is,
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:09
			wasn't the earth of Allah you
know, washed and why'd you put on
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:13
			migrated? Of course, this was
specifically referring to the
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:18
			situation in Makkah, where Muslims
were oppressed and persecuted.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:22
			They were prevented from
practicing the religion. So those
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:27
			who have can afford to live Mecca,
to Medina to Rasulullah Salallahu
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:32
			Salam, where one could practice
religion freely, and if you didn't
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:38
			do that, having had the ability to
move, you are allowed him you are,
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:44
			you are a grave sinner. And this
does not apply to anyone who is
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			living choosing to live in a place
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:53
			where he is completely safe and
secure in regards to his life, in
		
00:05:53 --> 00:06:00
			regardless position is owner and
religion and he can establish the
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:05
			rituals the symbols of Islam,
without any fear of anyone in the
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:10
			inner interfering with his
practice. So if that is the case,
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:15
			he is free to live wherever he
wants. Omar moving
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:20
			internationally, Alana was asked
the question, are we supposed to
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:22
			oblige to bake Hegira? No.
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:29
			I shall allow no replied. No more
Hijra after mocha has been fallen
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:35
			as been conquered by Muslims. We
know they were asked to leave
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:40
			Makkah, if irregular be dini.
Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam a
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:46
			person was living or fleeing with
his religion to rasool Allah Islam
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:50
			to be free to practice religion,
commanding on this beautiful
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:56
			Hadith, Hydra, alas calorie, the
who is known as the Ameerul
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:59
			movement in full Hadith. In fact,
wholebody says,
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:08
			I shall Allah wanna terraces that
Hegira is only prescribed because
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:14
			of how fitna when there is a fear
of sedition and trial tests in
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:20
			case of being forced out of our
religion, pressure put against
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:24
			call being caused to leave a
religion. So we're who como yo do
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:29
			Roma, I love to hear the rule,
rewards with Allah. So where there
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:34
			is a reason you are persecuted in
practicing your religion, then you
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:39
			must leave as long as you find a
safer place. But if that is not
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:44
			the case, Lam tangible later I
will know I know he'll he German
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:49
			No, it's not obligatory for him to
make a gyro Omen Omen some I'm
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:55
			Carl Marwadi. Therefore my word he
says, is Kira yulara. Dean if he
		
00:07:55 --> 00:08:01
			buried him rather Cofer. If he
says he goes on to say my
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:04
			worldview the political theories
of Islam and Greece color a shaft
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:10
			of a Sufi school and author of
many works. If a believer a Muslim
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:14
			can practice his religion in the
country where majority are non
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:19
			Muslims by the fact that he's able
to practice his religion freely.
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:25
			That place has become virtually
like $1 Islam for likoma to fiat
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:30
			Alfa Romeo relative in ha So
staying there is better than
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:35
			leaving that place. Because from
his stay there, many other people
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:41
			may be guided to accept Islam. And
we have so many other Hadith from
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:45
			Rasul Allah Himself Salah Julio
Salam, which establishes this
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:50
			beyond a shade of doubt. You know
today according to your AUSA tub,
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:55
			Ronnie as well as we burn, for
they came to Rasulullah sallallahu
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:59
			Assam man called Houdek and he
told him here in the Himalayas or
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:05
			Munna Unno Mala Mahajan. halacha.
They are saying to me that if you
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:09
			don't make Ijarah you are you
perish for Cairo Rasulullah
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:13
			sallallahu Sallam the Messenger of
Allah told him your foot ache
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:19
			after Miss salah, establish Salah
artistica and offers the cat Why
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:23
			would you sue and shun evil was
convened merrily home you could
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:28
			choose to live wherever you're
comfortable from the land of
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:34
			your own people. And in another
Hadith, the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:39
			Sallam told in Arabi In our
counter Salah wa treatise Zakka
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:45
			for under Mohammed urine we will
have Rama if you are too free to
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:51
			establish Salah and give the Zika
then you are a true muhajir even
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:54
			though you did not leave your
place while you motorable have
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:59
			Rama even if you die in the land
of your mama, which was totally
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			out of
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:05
			For at that time when the Prophet
spoke, so that is why Imam Shafi
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:10
			Rowley, Allah will know says the
great Imam will look to Rasul
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:15
			Allah Allah an affordable Hijra
Allama nataka in nama who alarm on
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:19
			foot in R and D. It is very clear
from the Sunnah of the Prophet
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:24
			sallahu wa salam, that the
obligation to make Hijra is only
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:28
			on those who have been persecuted,
who have been pre rendered who
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:33
			have been coerced against
practicing the religion. So this
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:39
			is the eminent scholars and the
fatwa of all of these colors that
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:45
			are recognized by Muslims. So, of
course, they can quote fatwas
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:50
			after fatwas of prominent people.
The short reply is that Muslims
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:57
			have followed this. And because of
thanks to this, Muslims went to
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:02
			Indonesia, no soldier when they
recited them in the non Muslim
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:07
			population, their vast majority of
them, Hindus, the majority
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:11
			converted to Islam, because of the
Muslims going in the setting down.
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:16
			In China, millions of people
converted to Islam, because of the
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:20
			merchants and the traders, and the
Sufi scholars and saints who went
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:25
			there. The same thing with many,
many countries. I come from South
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:31
			India, where Muslim Arab traders
came, and the Sufi sheiks, and
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:35
			household member members of the
Prophet's family came and settled
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:40
			down and intermarry with the local
population. So the majority in my
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:43
			part of malaba are Muslim or
Hamdulillah, we have a very
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:47
			thriving Islamic community,
they're establishing all of the
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:51
			rituals of Islam. Of course, the
Sharia law is not applicable
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:57
			there, because it is still non
Muslim country, India is majority
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:01
			non Muslim. So it's a secular
country. Now, if you look at
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:06
			anywhere in the world, in Europe,
and Canada and North America, we
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:12
			have an institutional so this is a
situation where all our everyone
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:16
			is free to prayer, there is
freedom of conscience, it's a
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:21
			multicultural, pluralistic
society. So the situation where
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:25
			some scholars said, you know, the
binary, you know, division of the
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:30
			wall, into Dar Al Islam, and our
hub does not hold. And that's why
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:35
			Marvel himself was forced to
change the definition. I myself
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:39
			presented this case in the court
here in Ontario. Based on this,
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:43
			they released that man, who were
accused of being a terrorist,
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:49
			because the, the, the, you know,
the prosecuting side was citing an
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:54
			Islamophobic expert on Islam, who
said, according to Islam, there is
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:58
			only God or Harbin dar or Islam, I
caught it. Moreover, the hijab and
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:03
			others know the situation has
changed. Now, even as the judge
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:07
			who is a Christian, I told you how
you are free to practice and
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:10
			preach your religion as a
Christian, I am free, I have been
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:15
			doing it in this country for over
40 years, I said to him, and of
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:20
			course, they were convinced that
Islam does not teach us, you know,
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:26
			to leave a place where we are
free, actually, by staying here
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:30
			and practicing Islam, and showing
the beauty of Islam through our
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:34
			words and actions and behavior,
Inshallah, people will be
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:39
			attracted to Islam. And this is
what the Muslim wisdom has a prac
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:42
			learn Muslims have learned from
the wisdom. And of course, there
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:46
			were some exceptions in some
cases, and that is only
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:50
			contextualize a specific
situation. So now the world is
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:55
			different. Pluralism and
multiculturalism is an it's a
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:58
			principle followed by many of
these countries, so there is no
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:02
			need for us. And finally, I want
to make a point, there was a study
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:08
			made, they distinguish the Israel
criteria of specifically being
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:13
			Islamic, especially the social
justice, and they cited four or
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:18
			five principal values. And they
studied all of them country's
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:21
			Muslim and non Muslim. And you
know, all of the Muslim countries
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:25
			failed, because there is no
justice, there is no
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			accountability, and there is
persecution.
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:30
			So, the number one
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:35
			country that paths are of the
tests of the valid Islamic
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:38
			criteria, number one was New
Zealand
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:45
			and the Muslim country even even
Malaysia came, you know, Gruder,
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:50
			but it came very, very further
further away in the lowest but
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:54
			other Muslim countries. No other
Muslim country passed any of those
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:57
			tests. Because there is no
accountability. There is no
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			justice. So how can you say that
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:04
			Have you from Canada should
migrate to a Muslim so called
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:09
			Muslim country where you are
check, you have no freedom. You
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:14
			cannot feel safe, whether you will
live tomorrow, your family will be
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:19
			safe. How many of these great
scholars are in jail, and many of
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:23
			them have disappeared from the
face of Europe. So let us stand
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:27
			the last one Ottawa, we are here
in Canada, we enjoy the rights
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:31
			here and read that constitution of
Canada. I have done it on the
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:37
			member. And I said this document
should be in every Muslim country.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:43
			I wish they practice it because
this enshrines the social ethics
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:48
			of the Sharia, the soul of the
Sharia, the way we should run this
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:52
			country, we have lost one author
helps us to understand and let us

00:16:02 --> 00:16:06
			they did not learn. It is, you
know, people with a demagogue
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:10
			political demagogues who is not
trained in Islamic sources, who
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:14
