Akram Nadwi – How do we protect Islam from corruption? – The Revivers of Islam

			Every religion
		

			you know, the great challenge after the foundation on offer the main profit messengers, they have
great challenge was the people who start cutting them and teaching them to, to, to then justify
origin is a very, very clear one is when the people
		

			hired to the religion, something from their own culture from their own understanding or the remove
something from the religion to the religion is not conveyed to the people is pure it will reveal
always corrupted with some mixing idea then for some something together misinterpretation of people
do. Second thing is when people don't make a religion relevant to the people's time and space.
		

			So, when you do this, then religion actually loses its importance because people have question the
call to that time and space and if you don't answer them, you know, then the people are having no
new father Liam. So these two problems or will happen in the religion in Islam from very beginning,
you know, the way the professor doesn't bore the people, he he made an argument that the religion
remains either pure as possible to emphasize that you know, the religion is based on the Quran and
Sunnah and he prays the people who will come to a mandala and they will make effort to purify the
region from whatever had been attached to it make it clear always coming back to the Quran asuna and
		

			there were Quran said that in whenever you have dispute, you know come back to the Quran and Sunnah
to this was second thing is that whenever Islam is in a new era a new space a new challenges
		

			among the older model should be people who should answer those questions are new so they're coming
to in the light of the new challenges. So in Islam always will be automa who will purify the
religion and also who will make religion more relevant to the time and the society that is a very
very important to like follow up remember hanifa from Allah His time you know great challenge was
that a bastard Empire the newly established
		

			Muslims are needed law
		

			you know detail the law you know things you know closest properly if they don't have good mind what
will happen is then the Muslims will need to borrow from Roman law
		

			or hanifa you know stones mixer for many people around him in and he really in a mix of details of
Islamic law very clearly. So then the muscles become independent in all those areas and they don't
need to borrow from anywhere else.
		

			Similarly, Mata Zilla you know these people they brought their own reasoning to religion and they
start testing things in the region and with their own mind to what actually shows their mind they
accept whatever is not acceptable acceptable their mark to their mind, they reject the Quranic
teaching and teaching other person hasn't become subject to the reasoning of Mata Zilla many things
from the religion has been rejected because it is not good to their reasoning. And in many Newton's
was introduced into religion because it makes more sense to them. So they're they're all Ummah who
came in face the challenge? In answer their questions, you know, people like mama haven't hung but
		

			under Abolhassan archery, a woman surah ma 3d people like them, then there are hyper time when a
Greek philosophy, you know, corrupted the mind that people occupied so much, that people did not
agree like anything, the reason it is not acceptable to Greek philosophy, then people love as early.
And then after that, in the time that they came, and they really criticized Greek philosophy very
strongly, in our view is currently arguments that how weak it is in its argument. So in every time
they have been, you know, making effort to purify the religion, and to answer the questions of their
time.
		

			We live now in our time,
		

			in a week, it is not right for us to do the same thing, whatever hanifa has been doing. Whatever
hanifa did, that was best for his time. But we don't have the same questions necessarily. It is not
for us to copy razali or raazi over Tamia, they understood that time is best and they did the best.
What we need to do is really we had to learn the Quran asuna make effort to purify the region.
Second thing we have to learn from the history of these people, that how they understood the
questions of that time, and how they made effort to address those questions. The way Do we really
need also to we're but not the same question, because we have different questions. What all many
		

			automatic mistake really the key of discussing the same questions
		

			so like 101
		

			Hello Today discuss the question of whether Quran is created or not. Because that was a question put
by Mozilla, he answer now you will see in many, many rosol many automa the key to the same thing but
appreciate the Quran. This question now does not arise, nobody has this question you have to take
the questions and answer them. In another question at the time.
		

			People discuss about Greek philosophy. Now their philosophy is not there actually there are more
question come from science.
		

			More questions now coming from the history, Islamic history, more question from the Bible for the
Prophet, that why prophets Allah, listen them killed all people for a minute coryza why the
professor married Ayesha, when she was so young, why he has so many wives. So there's these
questions coming, the questions are primarily for our science at the theory of evolution. And you
know, children believing that evolution theory, it is scientific theory in many, many ways. So, we
need really to understand the first thing we need to do is study the process properly. And then
after that next and purify the region. Second thing to study the life of these people, Muslim
		

			reformers, how the reform in that time how they address the question of their time. Now we need to
know that a question of our time, not the same question our time and then the answer them in a way,
which kind of make the mind content which can make people to remain Islam, which can remove the dyes
from the heart or other people, but you will only learn this thing once and really we need people
like you live in the West,
		

			in your mind should not be seem like an Indian person. Indian people have different questions. You
think in my society? What am I you know what Muslims need to hear what non Muslims also need? How
can I teach them about Islam? So their confusion goes away, then that misunderstanding is removed
from their mind. We need to do this to this way you learn from this history. But what is problem is
many to start copying the history. Don't copy it. Okay, space and time never repeated. So those
questions are not going to be repeated. But you can learn from that history. The reefer bizarrely
understand the question of his time he answers in a time you understand that question of his time.
		

			And he addresses those question. Let me understand the questions of my time. What are the theory
that occupy the mind of the people in my time, you know, create doubt in their mind misunderstand
their mind, how they influence are influenced by orientalist how they're influenced by Western
writers, how they influenced by science in all these new philosophies, and they make a doubt What's
wrong? And let me study that. And let me answer these questions in the light of the Quran and Sunnah
to the people, you know, their belief, their faith in Islam, because much stronger we need in every
generation or more like that. People love that. So in this course, inshallah, that what I'm going to
		

			teach that how the older ma reformers in different centuries, a different time, you know, they have
been really doing the work of reform, in a way. They kept disallow from being corrupted. They saved
Islam from being corrupted, you know, and then how can we learn our lesson from their life and from,
you know, the achieve mercy that they heard, you know, do their life
