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 --> 00:00:11 
			such as in matters of? No. It's the
00:00:11 --> 00:00:11 
			opposite.
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14 
			The assumption is of purity.
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16 
			The assumption is of validity.
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18 
			The assumption is
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19 
			that
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22 
			so therefore the assumption is you have. The
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25 
			assumption is that it is not filth. The
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27 
			assumption is that the filth is only a
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29 
			little bit if you're sure that it's filth.
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31 
			Then if you have a doubt,
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33 
			the doubt is ignored.
00:00:34 --> 00:00:37 
			Doubts are ignored. Possibilities are ignored.
00:00:37 --> 00:00:41 
			Inclinations are ignored. Everything short of certainty
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42 
			is ignored.
00:00:45 --> 00:00:45 
			Right?
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49 
			Allah wants ease for you.
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53 
			And Allah does not want hardship
00:00:53 --> 00:00:53 
			for you.
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55 
			So in these matters,
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58 
			we
00:00:59 --> 00:01:00 
			that is the teaching.
00:01:01 --> 00:01:04 
			And we have an excellent reader on purity
00:01:05 --> 00:01:05 
			and,
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07 
			and miss and, you know, the issues of
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08 
			misgivings.
00:01:09 --> 00:01:09 
			And
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12 
			so even if you think, I'm pretty sure
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13 
			I lost my no.
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17 
			Unless you know that you lost your you
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18 
			didn't lose your
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20 
			I think that's filth.
00:01:22 --> 00:01:22 
			It's not
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24 
			unless you are sure.
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25 
			But surety
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27 
			needs clear proof.
00:01:28 --> 00:01:31 
			It looks exactly like filth. It smells exactly
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32 
			like
00:01:32 --> 00:01:35 
			filth. Right? Then it's filth. Allah says, it's
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37 
			a stain. A stain could be anything. You
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40 
			don't need to prove why it's not filthy.
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42 
			You have to you have to have undeniable
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43 
			proof that it is filthy.
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49 
			The operational certainty about things is that they're
00:01:49 --> 00:01:52 
			pure. Certainty is not lifted by doubts or
00:01:52 --> 00:01:55 
			possibilities. Certainty rather is only lifted by certainty.
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57 
			And you can read the related answers.
