00:00:00 --> 00:00:00
			Miss,
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:03
			there's a question. What's the level of surety
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:03
			needed for?
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			Does one need to be absolutely certain before
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:08
			acting
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:10
			such as in matters of
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			No. It's the opposite.
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			The assumption is of purity.
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			The assumption is of validity.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:24
			The assumption is
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:25
			that
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			so therefore the assumption is you have. The
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:32
			assumption is that it is not filth. The
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			assumption is that the filth is only a
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			little bit if you're sure that it's filth.
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			Then if you have a doubt,
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			the doubt is ignored.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			Doubts are ignored. Possibilities
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			are ignored. Inclinations
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			are ignored. Everything short of certainty
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			is ignored.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			Right?
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			Allah wants ease for you.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			And Allah does not want hardship for you.
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02
			So in these matters,
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:04
			we
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			that is the teaching.
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:11
			And we have an excellent reader on purity
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:12
			and,
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			and miss and, you know, the issues of
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			misgivings.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:16
			And
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			so even if you think I'm pretty sure
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			I lost my wudu. No.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:24
			Unless you know that you lost your,
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:27
			you didn't lose your. I think that's filth.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:29
			It's not
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:31
			unless you are sure.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			But surety needs clear proof.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			It looks exactly like filth. It smells exactly
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:39
			like
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:42
			filth. Right? Then it's filth. Otherwise, it's a
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:45
			stain. A stain could be anything. You don't
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			need to prove why it's not filthy. You
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			have to you have to have undeniable proof
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:50
			that it is filthy.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:56
			The operational certainty about things is that they're
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59
			pure. Certainty is not lifted by doubts or
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:02
			possibility. Certainty rather is only lifted by certainty.
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			And you can read the related answers.
