			about something, like you don't want to go
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:03
			live or something.
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			You don't interrogate the man.
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:05
			No, no, no, you're live already, so go
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:05
			on.
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			No, you don't speak to him like that,
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:08
			you know, in front of the people.
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			These people are, these people here are very
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:10
			respectable people.
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			They're going to ask some very important questions.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:12
			Yeah.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:14
			They're going to ask some very, if they're
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			not, then we're going to have to get
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			rid of them, you know?
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:16
			Yes.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			I'm sure I can get rid of them.
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:18
			Trust me.
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:19
			You know what I mean?
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			Just like I'm sure I can get rid
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			of you.
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:21
			Yeah, that's right.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			You've been getting rid of, you know, people
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			like Zeeshan recently.
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			Oh, yes.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			We haven't done this in a long time,
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:29
			guys, you know.
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:31
			Zeeshan, can you lay back, let the people
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			just see, you know, what kind of a
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33
			man you are.
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:33
			Okay.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			So they're saying As-salamu alaykum.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			Wa alaykum as-salam wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:42
			We are at Zeeshan's place.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			We've got three very important people here live
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			with you.
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			And we thought we'd do this today because,
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			you know, you've got Mohammed the King Ping
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			hijab.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			You've got Ali Needs Dawa.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			We haven't got one for Zeeshan.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			And we have, what should we say?
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02
			Smirk.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:05
			Okay.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			So what we're doing today, tell us.
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			We're going to take the questions, are we
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:09
			not?
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			Well, I mean, let's talk about your upcoming
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:11
			debate.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:12
			Okay.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			We'll have a discussion with William Lane Craig
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			next week.
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			To be honest, that's the reason why we're
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:15
			doing this.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			We're doing this because we wanted to test
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			a live feature.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			We wanted to test, we're using StreamYard.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			We wanted to see if everything's working.
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			Not only that, I think it's very important
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			that people watching and their input on the
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			comment section when the debate happens is very,
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			very vital as well.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			Alhamdulillah, I think the audience matters a lot.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			So be very supportive, inshallah.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			Next Thursday when the debate happens, dialogue.
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			Obviously respectful.
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			It's going to be very respectful.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			I mean, the man is probably considered the
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:42
			best Christian debate in the last hundred years.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:42
			Really?
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:44
			No doubt about it.
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			William Lane Craig is a man with two
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			PhDs.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			He's a 75-year-old man.
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			You know, he's debated the best of the
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:52
			best in terms of the atheists.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			Sam Harris is debated and defeated.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			Christopher Hitchens is debated and defeated.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:58
			Many people.
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			Many of them have been defeated by atheists.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			Yeah, but he's done so in a way
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			which is very academic.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			Obviously, he's written many books.
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			I don't know, maybe now in the dozens.
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:10
			And so in terms of Christian debates and
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			apologetics, this is the pinnacle.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			I don't think there's anything higher.
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:14
			So who challenged you?
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			It wasn't challenged and stuff like that.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:17
			How did it happen?
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:21
			Actually, I was having a conversation with the
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:24
			guy from Capturing Christianity who's going to be
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:24
			moderating the debate.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:30
			And he asked me to debate Sam Shimon.
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:33
			I said to him at the moment, we've
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:36
			got Jake, the metaphysician, the Muslim metaphysician, who
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			I should say also is really helping me
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:41
			prepare for this discussion with William Lane Craig.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			He's one of the best.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:46
			Sam Shimon's got smaller problems to deal with.
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:55
			You wish he had bigger problems.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			Well, he's a one-inch wanker.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			And that's something else we could talk about
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			another day.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			Sorry to say.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:02
			I didn't hear it.
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			I just said something.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			Anyway, I didn't hear it.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:06
			I didn't hear it.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			Anyway, I'm free from what you just said.
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			But you know, he's got one inch worries.
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			But the thing we should talk about really
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:18
			is They say it's the Trinity of Dawa.
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20
			You're going to be debating the Trinity as
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			well.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:23
			The topic is the Trinity.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:28
			This is framed as a discussion actually with
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:28
			Craig.
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			But there's obviously going to be questions I'm
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:32
			going to have.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			I've read his material inside out.
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:36
			I think I've read everything.
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:36
			Really?
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:36
			Yeah.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:37
			I think I've read it.
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:40
			Hijab is one opponent I would not like
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:43
			to have because this guy, he goes in.
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:47
			I have to say though, with William Lane
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:48
			Craig, he's a person who I will not
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:51
			hesitate to say is my senior in both
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			age.
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			He's a senior in knowledge and a senior
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			in probably intelligence as well.
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			But I mean, the guy's written books on
		
00:03:59 --> 00:03:59
			logic.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:01
			Depends what you define as intelligence.
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:02
			You know, a lot of Muslim scholars talk
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:03
			about intelligence.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			To me, I mean.
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05
			I mean, if you did an IQ test
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:07
			and I did one, I think you'd get
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:07
			higher score.
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:08
			I don't mean in that sense.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			But to me, somebody who believes in the
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:11
			Trinity.
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:13
			No, I don't mean in this respect.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:15
			No, but I think that's a psychological thing,
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:15
			bro.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			I think deep down, and you'll see when
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:19
			we have a conversation, but I think it's
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			a psychological thing.
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:21
			They know it's false.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			I think a true genius and intellectual would
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			worship God alone.
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			To me, like to our paradigm.
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:28
			That's what we believe in.
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:29
			But when you're talking about academics and that,
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:29
			yeah, okay.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:30
			Yeah, and that's it.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			How many people are watching this, Ishan?
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:33
			So that's going to be on the 19th.
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:34
			It doesn't matter how many people are watching.
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			For those people that are watching this thing,
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:36
			it doesn't matter.
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:38
			For those people, it's going to be on
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:38
			the 19th.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:39
			It's going to be Thursday.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			I don't know exactly what time.
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:41
			I'll have to find out.
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:41
			I'll put it.
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:42
			I'll post it somewhere.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:42
			I'll post it at a time.
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:44
			But it's going to be a very interesting
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			discussion.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			Salaam from Sarajevo.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:50
			I think all of us have come from
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:50
			Sarajevo.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:53
			Honestly, a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful country, Bosnia.
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			Excellent country.
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:56
			We want to take some questions.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:57
			We want to engage with the people.
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			We want to engage with the people.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			I'm going to put them on that screen
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:01
			there.
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:02
			Yeah, that's nice.
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			How many people are watching roughly?
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:05
			So about 488.
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:06
			Okay, that's good.
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:07
			488 people.
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:08
			That's good, Hamza.
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			Now, please bring me your questions.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			Yeah.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			Somebody asks, who will he finish?
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:18
			That's too vague.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			Can you ask Hijab who he's going to
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:21
			finish?
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:22
			Who are you finishing?
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:24
			No, I think we're going to see a
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:24
			different Hijab.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:27
			Because anytime Hijab deals with somebody who's respectful,
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:28
			who's seen in his age.
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:29
			We saw it with, what was that guy
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:30
			in California?
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:31
			Of course.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:32
			Edward Tabash.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			Edward Tabash.
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:34
			Yeah, you saw Hijab's demeanor.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:35
			You need to understand Hijab's demeanor is for
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			those who, and sometimes obviously people are like,
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:38
			oh, you're arrogant.
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39
			I don't think so, but enemies of Islam.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			He was that Sahaba who went out and
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			he was walking proudly and the Prophet Sallallahu
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			Alaihi Wasallam said, Allah hates this walk except
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:46
			in this specific.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:46
			Abu Dujan.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			Yeah, there's context to this.
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:48
			You know what I'm trying to say?
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			When you're dealing with certain enemies of Islam,
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:50
			like what he did to David Wood was
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:51
			phenomenal.
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:52
			He totally deserved.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:53
			Yeah, Alhamdulillah.
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:55
			I mean, people nowadays, I mean, I was
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			just, I've been told that people are doing
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			watch parties about the David Wood thing.
		
00:05:58 --> 00:05:59
			This is six years later, bro.
		
00:05:59 --> 00:05:59
			Yeah.
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01
			There were people with, you know.
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			They do that with Harry Potter.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:03
			Really?
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:03
			Yeah, yeah, yeah.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05
			They're doing it with, for them to be
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:08
			speaking about a debate that took place six
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:08
			years ago.
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			I mean, so this was the David Wood
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:11
			debate.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			William Lane Craig is much more formidable than
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:13
			David Wood.
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			I mean, if anything, you know, William Lane
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			Craig is, could be the teacher of David
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:19
			Wood, really.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			Yeah, David Wood was more like a pig.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:21
			Did you get it?
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:22
			Yes, he is.
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:24
			He's saying, more book recommendations, please.
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			Okay, but you got to be more specific.
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:27
			In what area?
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:30
			Like, you know, if books are, if you're
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			talking about Islamic studies, then there's, you know,
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:34
			if you're talking about, I don't know, general
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:40
			literature, be more specific, Amina, Muhammad, you're the
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:40
			one who asked the question.
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:42
			So, in what genre are we talking about
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:42
			here?
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:43
			Because books are too many.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:44
			Is that a sister?
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:46
			Yeah, books are too many.
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:47
			She should read Beautysick.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			It's the only book I've read in my
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:49
			life.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			Now tell us, Amira.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			All right, what's the next question?
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:56
			Next question, what do you guys think about
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:58
			Trump and Kamala debating tonight?
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:00
			Go on, what do you think?
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:00
			Nice.
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:01
			Who's Kamala?
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:03
			Well, before then, just tell the people when
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			the debate is.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:04
			Okay.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			The discussion is going to be on the
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:07
			19th of October.
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			Sorry, September, next week.
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			It's going to be live on this channel.
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:18
			In the same way that it's live.
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:18
			This is live now.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			Yeah, it's going to be in the same
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:21
			way.
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:23
			Live on multiple channels.
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			Yeah, but we don't need to talk about
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			the other ones.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:26
			That's what I'm saying.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			So make sure you are live on this
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:28
			channel.
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:30
			That's the point because they might see it
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:31
			somewhere and think it's yours.
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			Yeah, so there's multiple channels, but you see
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			Muhammad Hijab and go live on that channel.
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:35
			Yeah, that's right.
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:38
			Trump and Kamala debating tonight.
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:40
			I have no idea.
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:40
			I'm not interested.
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:42
			Yeah, to be honest, same thing.
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:42
			I don't care.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:44
			It's just, it's just, they're just different.
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:45
			Same agenda.
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:46
			There's people behind the news on it.
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:49
			They say it's two wings of the same
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:49
			bird.
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:50
			Exactly.
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:51
			Left wing, right wing.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:52
			Oh, I see.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:52
			Yeah, exactly.
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:53
			Exactly.
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:54
			Yes, and it's a bad bird.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:58
			Give us some interesting questions, guys.
		
00:07:58 --> 00:07:59
			Give us some challenging ones.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:07:59
			Come on.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			Give us some challenging ones.
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:01
			Can you read it out?
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:02
			This guy can't see it.
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:04
			How would you describe the difference between the
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			placebo effect and yakin?
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:08
			Oh look, the placebo effect.
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:09
			That's an interesting question.
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:10
			Yeah.
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:12
			I mean, you can, you can get yakin,
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:16
			a false yakin, okay, from the placebo effect.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:18
			You can get a false yakin, a false
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:21
			sense of certainty, but it's not, yakin means
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			certainty in the Arabic language, right?
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:24
			That's what the word yakin means.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			Placebo effects can give you a sense, but
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			that will be called delusion then, because the
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			placebo effect is a kind of delusion.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:37
			A pure yakin, without the delusion, is without,
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:38
			no delusion.
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			It's just pure yakin.
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:42
			And so in the Quran, there's three types
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:43
			of yakin.
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			There's ilm al-yakin, there's ayn al-yakin,
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:47
			and there's haq al-yakin.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:48
			Exactly, I was going to say this.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51
			You know, so the ones that, and it's
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:53
			very interesting that the Quran does this, right?
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			So it tells you that, it goes into
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			an epistemology.
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:59
			So from one perspective, you can really know
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:02
			what the truth is, from what you see.
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:04
			Ayn al-yakin means what you see, yakin
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:04
			of the eyes.
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:09
			Like you'll see hellfire with your eyes.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:12
			You'll see it with your eyes.
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:17
			Ilm al-yakin is knowledge of al-yakin.
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:18
			Which we have in the Quran.
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:20
			Which we have, which can, for example, 2
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:22
			plus 2 equals 4 is not actually something
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:24
			you see, but it's a kind of ilm
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:28
			al-yakin, which is knowledge of yakin.
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:30
			And then thirdly is haq al-yakin, which
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:33
			is truth of yakin, which once again, it
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:34
			prerequisites truth.
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:38
			So it's interesting the Quran doesn't just give
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:39
			you the term yakin by itself.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:43
			It gives you the term yakin with kind
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:47
			of like an adjective to accompany it, to
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			show you the correct epistemology.
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:51
			You can attain truth from what you see,
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:53
			you can attain truth from what you reason,
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:57
			and you can attain truth from the truth
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:57
			itself.
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			It's interesting because the thing is, it gives
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:01
			different kind of contentment to the heart.
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			Yeah, because if you look at Ibrahim, he
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:04
			had ilm al-yakin.
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:06
			He also had haq al-yakin.
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:09
			Yeah, and then he asked Allah to show
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:11
			him how he was.
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:13
			So this is very interesting because the thing
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:16
			is, it's not that he doubted, but it's
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:18
			just that extra certain that, for example, we
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:20
			all believe, for example, if you ask us,
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:21
			we will say to you, we are very
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			sure that Allah exists.
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:24
			We are very sure we are going to
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:26
			be resurrected, Jannah, hellfire, all this kind of
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:27
			stuff.
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:29
			But is it the same when we see
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:30
			that with our own eyes?
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:34
			No way, no way, because no matter how
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:37
			much you believed in it, when you are
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:38
			resurrected and you see and you're like, oh
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:40
			my gosh, this is the thing that we've
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			been talking about.
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:42
			Do you get what I'm trying to say?
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:44
			This is going to be the conversation we're
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:46
			going to have inshallah in Jannah, where you're
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:47
			going to be like, we're actually here, man.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:49
			We was talking about this.
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:49
			Do you get it?
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:50
			There's a conversation in the Quran Allah talks
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:52
			about people who were like, you know, they
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:54
			feared their Lord, etc.
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			So it's those different kind of certain.
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:57
			And again, when it comes to placebo effect,
		
00:10:57 --> 00:10:58
			I think that can be also a form
		
00:10:58 --> 00:10:59
			of yaqeen.
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:00
			Why?
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:01
			Because Allah says, I am to my servant
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:02
			how he thinks of me.
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:05
			So how you placebo effect is obviously something
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:06
			that you make yourself believe.
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:09
			So it's important that if you make yourself
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:11
			believe that Allah is like this, you will
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:12
			find Allah to be like that.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			So I don't know if you can call
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			that placebo effect, but it's making yourself believe
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			that and inshallah that it will come true.
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:18
			Yeah.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:22
			Do you think sociology is good for dawah
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:24
			and how can we use it?
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:27
			Yeah, I think like especially if you're dealing
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:30
			with social issues on this channel, you'll me
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			Ali and Zeeshan all three of us with
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:33
			all of our respective channels.
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:36
			We deal with social issues all the time.
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:39
			And so when we do that, we mentioned
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:40
			studies a lot of the time and these
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:42
			studies are like, okay, well this study says
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:44
			such and such and so a background study
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:47
			of sociology tells you how you can deal
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:48
			with studies like the methodology.
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:51
			What kind of studies is it representative?
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:53
			Is it not representative?
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:56
			So you can approach studies now if you
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:58
			want to make social commentary in a bit
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:02
			more of a critical manner rather than just
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:05
			reading as a layman because in any sociology
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:06
			thing you do, for example, in the UK,
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:08
			you've got GCCs, A-levels, you've got degrees,
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:08
			etc.
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:10
			You're going to have to go through methods
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:12
			of this is the method, etc.
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:14
			You know, so I do think it's very
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:15
			very useful.
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:18
			I think all the social sciences are extremely
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:20
			useful, you know, to be honest with you,
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			I've benefited a lot from my own studies
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25
			in my, even my A-levels, a lot
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:26
			of my A-levels, I benefit from them
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:28
			when I do videos.
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:31
			Yes, have these like studies very very profound
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:33
			to use in the dawah, I genuinely believe
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:36
			is very very good, you know, so yeah,
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:37
			I mean, I mean, yeah, use as much
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:38
			as you guys can inshallah.
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:40
			It does really help us in our dawah.
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:43
			Wow, Zeeshan, what do you have there?
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:46
			Don't say wow, say Mashallah.
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:48
			Allahumma Barak, Mashallah, Zeeshan.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:49
			At first I thought it was a pancake,
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:52
			but then I realized it's a burger with
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:54
			double cheese and egg.
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:54
			Protein.
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:56
			You should have your protein, Zeeshan Alhamdulillah, I
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:58
			can see those big arms and those.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			Okay, all right.
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:02
			What about tips on prayer and staying consistent?
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:05
			About tips on prayer and staying consistent?
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:05
			Yeah.
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:06
			Yeah.
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:07
			What do you want to say about that
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:08
			Ali, what do you think?
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:11
			I mean, depends, you know, like depends on
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:12
			people, like when I first came to Islam,
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:14
			obviously it was very new to me.
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:15
			So I would usually pray all my prayers
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:18
			all together at night and that's because I
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:18
			didn't really know.
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:20
			I didn't get a gist of it.
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:22
			So it's, you can take it slowly, but
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:24
			I think that's one thing you don't really
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:24
			compromise.
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:26
			And I think when it comes to Salah,
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:28
			instead of diving into Salah, which you should
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:31
			anyways, but it's understanding who Allah is because
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			we don't really understand Allah.
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			Sometimes we go, we think that, okay, I'm
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:37
			going to worship Allah and it's normal.
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:37
			We understand.
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:39
			Okay, Allah gives, you know, my heart beats
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			and I have food and I've got good
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:41
			health and family.
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:44
			True, that's not why we worship Allah.
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:46
			We worship Allah because of who he is.
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:47
			This is the crux of the matter.
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:49
			If Allah created us and gave us nothing,
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:50
			just created us, he deserves worship.
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:53
			So once we understand who Allah is, how
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:55
			magnificent he is, understand him, his attributes, the
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:57
			Quran, read it.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:59
			Once you fall in love with Allah, how
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:04
			could one love someone and not show affection
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:05
			or love or whatever it is, or want
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:06
			to do it?
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:06
			You don't need to tell me.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:09
			If I love somebody, that person doesn't need
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			to tell me, can you buy me flowers?
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:11
			Can you take me out?
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:12
			Can you?
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:12
			I'm going to do that.
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:14
			It's a given because I have love for
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:14
			you.
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:16
			So once you have love for Allah subhanahu
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:18
			wa ta'ala, there will be no, oh,
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:20
			but it's hard for me to pray.
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:21
			I can't wake up for Fajr.
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:24
			Wallahi, none of these statements will ever come
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:24
			in your head.
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:25
			Why?
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			Because once you understand who Allah is, how
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:30
			magnificent he is, then when you understand that,
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:31
			then you will show the utmost love.
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:32
			And that's why I give the example when
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:33
			I give dawah and I speak to non
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:35
			-Muslims and I say to them, they're going
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:36
			to say, why do we need to pray
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:36
			to God?
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:39
			I say God doesn't need you to pray.
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:40
			If everyone stopped praying, but I'll give you
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:41
			an example of a famous person.
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:43
			I'll say, look, who's someone famous you know?
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:44
			I don't know, Brad Pitt.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:45
			Okay, you see Brad Pitt walking down the
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:45
			road.
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:46
			Okay, what would you do?
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:47
			Oh, I'll get excited.
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:48
			Why get excited?
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:49
			When you go next to him.
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:50
			What if they see you?
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:51
			They'll feel repulsed.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			Depends.
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:54
			I mean, a lot of haters.
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			All the Maghrebs that don't believe in me.
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			So the thing is, when you see a
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			famous person, you get sweaty when you go
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:02
			next to them.
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:04
			Even you see what happens with us.
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:05
			When people come to us, they treat us
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:09
			like, oh my gosh, bro, can I take
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:10
			a picture, please?
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:11
			Yeah, you know, and we understand, you know,
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:13
			the videos have changed your life, etc.
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:14
			You know, I'm talking about mine, of course.
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:14
			I don't know.
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:17
			But the point is this, what has Brad
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:19
			Pitt done for you that you have such
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:20
			great respect around him?
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:20
			And can I take a picture?
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:21
			Nothing.
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:24
			But because of who he is, you show
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:25
			that utmost respect.
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:27
			The point is, imagine if you're doing that
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:29
			with a human being who has done nothing
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:29
			for you.
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:30
			Did he pay for your debts?
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:31
			Or did he come and back you in
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:31
			a fight?
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:32
			What did he do for you?
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:32
			Nothing.
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:35
			Because he's a filmmaker or a person who
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:36
			does movies.
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:37
			What about the one who created heavens and
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:37
			earth?
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:39
			So you need to understand who Allah is.
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:41
			When you understand who Allah is, Salah will
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42
			come naturally.
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:43
			Staying away from haram will come naturally.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			So that's why I would say inshallah.
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			For more powerful reminders like I just gave
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:48
			now, please subscribe to my channel.
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:52
			Mashallah, Allah Mubarak.
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:55
			Your advice to young Muslims that want to
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:58
			get into seeking Islamic knowledge.
		
00:15:58 --> 00:15:59
			Okay, so you can answer that, Abishan.
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:05
			So young people that want to get into
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:06
			seeking Islamic knowledge.
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:10
			Young ones, little ones, untrained ones, college students.
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:11
			What advice would you give them?
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:13
			Which Islamic knowledge?
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15
			That's an interesting one.
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:15
			What do you suggest?
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:17
			Hijab, you want to start off?
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:17
			Nice.
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20
			I think the best thing is to start
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:20
			off with the Quran.
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:25
			The Prophet s.a.w. said, The best
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:27
			of you are those who learn the Quran
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:28
			and teach it.
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:30
			And in terms of learning the Quran, there
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:31
			are different ways of doing it.
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:34
			So the first thing is, I would say
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:41
			that the Prophet s.a.w. said, That
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:43
			the one who is proficient with the Quran
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:46
			is with the high lofty angels.
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:56
			The one who finds it difficult and he
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:00
			stutters when he's reciting the Quran, he'll get
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:00
			two rewards.
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:02
			So the first thing is this, if you
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:04
			think about the Quran, there's different layers.
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:06
			The first layer is learning the Quran itself.
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:09
			And when you're doing so, the good thing
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:10
			about that is that each letter that you're
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:14
			learning is a reward.
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:28
			And the Prophet s.a.w. said, I
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:35
			don't say that But I say that And
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:36
			for each of the letters, you get 10
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:38
			rewards.
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			So the point is, is that imagine if
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:43
			the Quran has 70,000 words, for instance,
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:46
			and each word has an average of 5
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:51
			letters, you know, that's 350,000 letters for,
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53
			you know, in the Quran, for example, and
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:55
			then you times that by 10, that's what?
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:57
			3.5 million rewards by reading the entire
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:58
			Quran, for example, one time.
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:01
			So the rewards that you will get from
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:03
			just reading the Quran are immense.
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:06
			There's no other field of knowledge in Islamic
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:08
			studies, which has this kind of reward inside
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:09
			of it.
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:11
			So number one, to be proficient with the
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:12
			Quran.
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:15
			One of the famous scholars of Islam, his
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:22
			name is Ibn Jazari says, That there's nothing
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:24
			between you and losing the Quran except for
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:25
			exercising your jaw.
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:27
			So every, it's like you got to consider
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:29
			it like a kind of exercise, like you'd
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:30
			go and do some walking, you go and
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:33
			do this, you have to have a daily,
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:35
			what you call Wird, you have to have
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:37
			a daily kind of routine with the Quran,
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:39
			whether it's even 15 minutes, whether it's 30
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:42
			minutes or 45 minutes or an hour, but
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:44
			the Prophet s.a.w. told us that
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:48
			the best deeds is, It is the most
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:51
			consistent and even if it is small, so
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:53
			I would say is that, put everything aside
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:53
			for now.
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:55
			If you're not doing this, then you're not
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:58
			on the path of, you know, properly seeking
		
00:18:58 --> 00:18:58
			knowledge.
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			I think he could be doing some other
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			thing, listening to a lecture or going through
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:04
			Fiqh or whatever, and that's let's say stage
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:06
			two, three or four, but stage one is
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:09
			to have a relationship with the Quran.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11
			I'm not going to overcomplicate the matter here.
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:12
			I'm just going to leave it as that
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:15
			for now because I think that sometimes the
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:17
			best and most basic advice is the best
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:17
			advice.
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:18
			That's good.
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:20
			We've got about 800 people watching, Alhamdulillah.
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:22
			Somebody's asked, when is the next episode of
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:23
			Burning Hands coming?
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:24
			Yeah, we'll see and we'll see how it
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:25
			goes.
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:26
			You mean next season, now season one is
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:26
			done.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:27
			Come on.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:28
			We'll see what happens.
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:29
			I need to be one of the characters.
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:30
			Can you make me?
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:30
			Absolutely.
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:31
			We'll be one of the extras, of course.
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:34
			We've got a role, obviously, because, you know,
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:36
			in season two, we're going to have a
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:38
			museum, Muhammad Hijab Museum, and we need a
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:39
			cleaner for that museum.
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:46
			Okay, Ikhwan, why are there hadiths where Allah
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:47
			speaks, but they are not in the Quran?
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:49
			Oh, yeah.
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:50
			Okay.
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:52
			So this is the difference between hadith al
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:54
			-Qudsi, okay, and the Quran.
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			By the way, Ishaan is eating eggs.
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:56
			That's why he's not here, guys.
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:57
			Yeah, yeah.
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:58
			Yeah, sure.
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:02
			So like, okay, so there's a discussion of
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:04
			what is the difference between al-Hadith al
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:06
			-Qudsi, they call it al-Hadith al-Qudsi,
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			where Allah is speaking, yeah, and al-Quran
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:09
			al-Kareem.
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:12
			First and foremost, al-Quran is part of
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:16
			a, so the part of it is connected
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:18
			to a general narrative.
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:19
			So surah al-Fatihah is connected to surah
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:21
			al-Baqarah, which is connected to surah al
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:21
			-Amran.
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:23
			Al-Hadith al-Qudsi does not fit into
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:24
			that framework.
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:27
			So there's a continuous narrative and discourse in
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:27
			the Quran.
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:30
			It's like a pearl necklace.
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:32
			Okay, so one pearl is attached to the
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:32
			next.
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:35
			Al-Hadith al-Qudsi do not fit the
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:35
			same parameters.
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:37
			Number two, it's not just al-Hadith al
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:40
			-Qudsi or al-Hadith al-Qudsi, the Qudsi
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:43
			hadith, which are like this, because if you
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:46
			imagine, Allah spoke before in al-Tawrat and
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:48
			al-Injil, and he spoke in Suhuf Ibrahim,
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:50
			wa Musa, and so on and so forth.
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:52
			So there's many occasions where Allah speaks.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:54
			It's not just in the Quran.
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:56
			Quran is a subset of the speech of
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:57
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
		
00:20:57 --> 00:21:00
			It is not the entirety of the speech
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:01
			of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:03
			So it should not come as a surprise
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:06
			to us that this subset of speech is
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:09
			also present in other places.
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:12
			The second thing is that there's ahkam that
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:14
			are connected to the Quran.
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:16
			So for example, with the Quran you have
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:18
			to do wudu before you touch it.
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:21
			You know, there's ahkam if you're janib, you
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:23
			cannot, with al-Hadith al-Qudsi you can
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:23
			do that.
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:26
			Number three, al-Quran al-Kareem has a
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:31
			specific prestige, okay, because of this continuity in
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:34
			discourse, which al-Hadith al-Qudsi don't have.
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:37
			Number four, it's conceivable for al-Hadith al
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:37
			-Qudsi to be da'if.
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:38
			Huh?
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:41
			It's conceivable for al-Hadith al-Qudsi to
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:42
			be da'if.
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:45
			It's a weak, because it's just because it's
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:47
			a hadith, it doesn't always have to be
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:50
			mutawatir, or qawiy, or strong, or sahih, or
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:51
			whatever, or hasan, or hasan li ghayri.
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:52
			It can be da'if.
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:55
			There is no conceivability in anything that could
		
00:21:55 --> 00:21:56
			be considered to be al-Quran al-Kareem
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:57
			for it to be weak.
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:03
			Number six, al-Hadith al-Qudsi, do not
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:05
			have to fit into al-Rasm al-Uthmani,
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:07
			for obvious reasons, which are the script of
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:08
			the Uthmanic Codex.
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:11
			And there are many, many other things that
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:13
			are different between the two, but the Quran
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:17
			is Allah speaking directly in a manner, which
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:18
			He is speaking directly in al-Hadith al
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:20
			-Qudsi, but it's in a different kind of
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:20
			manner.
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:24
			And you'll find that the style, therefore, of
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:26
			al-Hadith al-Qudsi is not as rhythmic
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:27
			as the Quran.
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:30
			There is a stylistic difference between al-Hadith
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:34
			al-Qudsi and al-i'jaz al-Lughawi,
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:37
			which is the miraculous aspect, which is in
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:38
			the Quran, which is not al-Hadith al
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:40
			-Qudsi, which is why Allah, He made the
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:44
			challenge of fa'tu bi suratu min mithrihi wada
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:47
			'u shuhadaakum min dooni la yankuntum sadeqeen, that
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:49
			bring a chapter like it from the Quran.
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:51
			He didn't make that challenge from the al
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:51
			-Hadith al-Qudsi.
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:54
			Allah made the challenge, la wajadu fee ikhtilafan
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:56
			kathiran in the Quran, He didn't make it
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:57
			in al-Hadith al-Qudsi, and there's many,
		
00:22:57 --> 00:22:59
			many, many, many things I could say, but
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:02
			fadlu, or the virtue of the Quran over
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:05
			al-Hadith al-Qudsi, it is well known,
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:07
			just like some scholars even say that there
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			are some parts of the Quran, some aspects
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:12
			of the Quran, which are better even, they
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:14
			would say, than other aspects of the Quran.
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:16
			There is a discussion among the scholars, for
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:19
			example, al-Qudsi, they say because Allah is
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:20
			speaking about Himself in that situation.
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:22
			If you compare that with the ayat where
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:24
			He is speaking about the inheritance and so
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:27
			on, where, yes, this is Allah's words, and
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:27
			this is Allah's words.
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:30
			Some scholars say this is a higher form
		
00:23:30 --> 00:23:32
			of Allah's words because the subject matter is
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:34
			higher, which is, in this case, Allah subhanahu
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:35
			wa ta'ala.
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:37
			So we can agree, you know, it says,
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:41
			that we agree those passages in the Quran
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:43
			were also mentioned in those previous books as
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:43
			well.
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:46
			Allah says that, He says, and these were
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:47
			the...
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:48
			No, but it's possible for there to have
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:50
			been things Allah said then that He didn't
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:51
			say in the Quran.
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:52
			It's very possible.
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:53
			Like, for example, we know that Sharia is
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:54
			different.
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:55
			But what Allah says at the end of
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:58
			the ayah, it's mentioned that that's what we're
		
00:23:58 --> 00:23:59
			reciting, because Allah said these were the things
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:01
			that were mentioned, which mean that...
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:02
			Oh, those particular...
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:06
			Yeah, and that particular thing.
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:07
			But I'm saying that there's such a thing
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:09
			as Suhuf Ibrahim and Musa...
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:10
			Because it's interesting, because you know why?
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:11
			Because when they come and say to us,
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:12
			oh, but you know what was written in
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:13
			it?
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:13
			What was written in it?
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:14
			Well, we have some idea now what was
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:15
			written in it.
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:15
			We have some idea.
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:16
			Okay, interesting.
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:18
			We're on our way to about 900 viewers.
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:19
			Alhamdulillah, may Allah bless them.
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:20
			Brothers and sisters, if you're watching, Hijab is
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:23
			going to have a debate on the 17th?
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:24
			19th.
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:24
			19th of September.
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:26
			It's actually framework as a discussion, actually.
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:26
			It's a discussion.
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:27
			It's a dialogue.
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:29
			But please show your support.
		
00:24:29 --> 00:24:30
			It's very important for you guys to be
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:30
			engaged.
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:33
			It's very, very important, inshallah, for you guys
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:34
			in the comment section to be engaged and
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:34
			do Dawah.
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:35
			I mean, I can remember before I came
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			to Islam, those three years, I was looking
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:38
			into different religions, reading the Bible, different scriptures.
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:40
			I used to be very active in the
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:40
			comment section.
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:41
			I may do those videos.
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:43
			Very, very active, bro.
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:47
			I was having like debates, dialogues in and
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:47
			out.
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:47
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:49
			So it's very important for you guys.
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:50
			There's many people going to be watching.
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:51
			There might be some misconceptions.
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:54
			So you guys are involved, directly involved in
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:54
			the Dawah.
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:55
			You don't need to have a YouTube channel,
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:56
			but please make sure you attend it.
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:58
			There's about nearly 900 people watching.
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:59
			It's going to go to a thousand.
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:01
			So I'm letting you guys know, please attend
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:02
			the debate.
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:03
			It's very, very important.
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:05
			Support your, make sure you support it.
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:06
			You watch it.
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:06
			You share it.
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:07
			You comment.
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:10
			It's fundamental, Inshallah, in the style of discussion,
		
00:25:10 --> 00:25:10
			Inshallah.
		
00:25:10 --> 00:25:11
			So do not miss it on the 17th
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:12
			of October.
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:12
			What time?
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:14
			That's what I need to find out.
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:14
			I need to go back.
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:15
			Thanks, Ali.
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:18
			So there is, there is a Zionist.
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:18
			You smell of honey.
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:20
			There is a Zionist.
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:25
			And it's funny, whenever they post the initials
		
00:25:25 --> 00:25:32
			of Israel, it spells il, il, il, il.
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:35
			She's just written il, il, il, il.
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:36
			Exactly.
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:39
			The Zionist, the Zionist state is definitely ill
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:40
			and needs treatment.
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:41
			And you are a shia.
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:43
			Nice.
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:43
			Okay.
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:44
			Somebody said, are you going to recite the
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:46
			Quran in the discussion?
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:47
			I don't know.
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:48
			I haven't thought about that.
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:49
			I think you should, because if you have
		
00:25:49 --> 00:25:49
			a pattern.
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:51
			But it's the way it's going to be
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:52
			is like two minutes, two minutes, two minutes,
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:53
			two minutes.
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:54
			So if I do, it's going to be
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:54
			very short.
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:55
			So it doesn't matter.
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:56
			I think you should.
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:56
			All right.
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:57
			Let's comment.
		
00:25:57 --> 00:26:00
			Does negativity and comments from atheists and Christians
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:01
			affect you, Ali?
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:03
			Okay.
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:04
			Starting with me, myself, personally.
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:08
			What really bothers me, I don't care about
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:09
			the enemies of Islam that much.
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:12
			The Christians, the atheists, the Zionists, I know
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:13
			what they're about.
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:14
			I know what to expect from them.
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:15
			You get it.
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:18
			What bothers me is Muslims, your own brothers
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:19
			and sisters.
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:20
			And again, this is not if we are
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:22
			wrong to be criticized all day, every day.
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:24
			If we are wrong to be criticized, nobody
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:26
			can come and say, oh, why are you
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:26
			telling me I'm wrong?
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:27
			If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:29
			We fully accept, Alhamdulillah, yeah?
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:31
			And we should fully accept it because if
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:33
			we are wrong, but when ignorance, you know,
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:35
			people who are speaking without knowledge, giving you
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:38
			labels, backbiting, all this kind of stuff, even
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:40
			that again, it doesn't really bother.
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:42
			But to me, what really bothers me is
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:45
			someone that I know, someone in the YouTube
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:46
			sphere that I know.
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:47
			Like, for example, Sheikh Osman Farooq.
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:48
			He has my number.
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:49
			Did he say something about you?
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:50
			He can speak to me.
		
00:26:50 --> 00:26:50
			I'll give him a second.
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:51
			If he did.
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:51
			He should.
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:52
			He should.
		
00:26:52 --> 00:26:52
			Yeah.
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:54
			Should have talked to you publicly without any
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:54
			discussion.
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:56
			So the thing is, he has my number
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:58
			and he decides to do a video.
		
00:26:58 --> 00:26:59
			Yeah, he should.
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:00
			I mean, I would be a bit irritated,
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:03
			but then to go and support an enemy
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:03
			of Islam.
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:06
			I'll be like, that's what really bothers me.
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:07
			He didn't do that, did he?
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:07
			No, no, he never done that.
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:08
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:09
			He's been like, yeah.
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:09
			Some backstabbers.
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:11
			Yeah, that's a different story.
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:12
			But I don't know.
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:12
			That's me personally.
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:14
			But other than that, the Christians and the
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:15
			Zionists, but we get it in the Da
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:15
			'wah table.
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:16
			We get it everywhere.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:17
			Yeah, and it's a part of it.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:19
			The best of men who walked the earth
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:19
			done it.
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:20
			What about you, Zeeshan?
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:21
			How do you feel about that?
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:21
			All right.
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:22
			Hijab.
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:23
			No, answer the question.
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:24
			No, it's fine.
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:25
			No.
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:26
			Oh, okay.
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:27
			You don't want to show your weaknesses.
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:28
			No, we want to move.
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:29
			So tell me, which Christian upsets you?
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:30
			Tell me.
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:31
			I'm going to deal with them.
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:31
			Who is it?
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:33
			Yeah, we want to move through the questions
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:33
			very quickly.
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:35
			So we keep it fast-paced.
		
00:27:35 --> 00:27:35
			Tell us, Zeeshan.
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:36
			So hijab.
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:38
			Recommend books on Islamic history.
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:40
			Okay.
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:42
			So if we're talking about the early years
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:44
			that you got the classics, the primary source
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:46
			kind of material for us as Muslims, which
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:47
			you should be aware of.
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:48
			Some of them have been translated.
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:49
			Some of them are not.
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:51
			But I know for a fact that Ibn
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:51
			Kathir.
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:52
			Maybe start with English.
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:55
			Yeah, Ibn Kathir has been translated into English.
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:56
			Can you let him finish, Zeeshan?
		
00:27:57 --> 00:27:57
			Yeah, yeah.
		
00:27:58 --> 00:27:59
			For example, but that goes through like the,
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:03
			it goes through the times of the Khulafa
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:04
			Rashideen, Al-Mahdiyeen.
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:06
			And I think that's an important primary source,
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:07
			at least to be aware of.
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:09
			Now, obviously, At-Tabari has written something.
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:12
			I don't think that's been translated, though, about
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:14
			history in the early days and stuff like
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:15
			that.
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:17
			In terms of things that someone can access
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:21
			now, there's a book that this new age
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:24
			kind of person has written about Islamic history,
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:26
			which is quite basic, but I think it's
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:28
			a sign, but it's called Islamic history by
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:31
			Khalid something something.
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:32
			Someone's going to help me in the, I've
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:34
			got it in my something something.
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:36
			I forget his name, but it's a book
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:37
			you can get on Amazon, etc.
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:40
			I think that, you know what, before even
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:42
			you start with Islamic history, you should be
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:44
			aware of world history, and a book that
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:46
			I recommend for like a basic overview.
		
00:28:47 --> 00:28:48
			There's one that they sell in the shops.
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:49
			It's called Sapiens.
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:52
			I don't necessarily agree with that one.
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:53
			I don't like that one as much.
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:55
			No, no, it's just one called Sapiens.
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:57
			It's like the history of the world, the
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:58
			entire world.
		
00:28:58 --> 00:28:58
			Really?
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:02
			Yeah, by Johan, whatever his surname is.
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:02
			I forget.
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:03
			Is it Hariri?
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:05
			It's a Zionist, I think he is.
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:08
			Yeah, but the one that I like, and
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:09
			I think is a good one to start
		
00:29:09 --> 00:29:10
			off with, and it's like a good read,
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:12
			is by Gombrich.
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:13
			It's like some Orientalist.
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:16
			And in fact, he has a chapter in
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:19
			that book about Islamic history, which is pretty
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:19
			interesting as well.
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:21
			If you want to, if you want to
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:24
			read an Orientalist account, which is pretty good
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:27
			as well, then A Preaching of Islamic History
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:29
			by Thomas Arnold Walker is a good book
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:33
			in Islamic history, but it's written by an
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:35
			Orientalist, but I would call him a fair
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:36
			-minded Orientalist.
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:39
			Then, of course, you've got like these series,
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:41
			which are like Ali ibn Abi Talib, Amr
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:44
			ibn Khattab, which you can find by Dar
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:45
			Es Salaam Publishing.
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:49
			You can also get, obviously, the seer of
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:50
			the Seerah of the Prophet, we've done a
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:52
			seerah as well for Sapiens, an entire seerah,
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			you can get that free of charge on
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:57
			the Sapiens website, which you've attended.
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:57
			Yeah, brilliant.
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:01
			Also, Yasir Qadhi has got a good seerah,
		
00:30:01 --> 00:30:02
			to be honest.
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:04
			I mean, I watched his whole seerah, 106
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:06
			series, pretty good.
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:10
			And he's now made it into a book.
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:12
			So his seerah is the best, what I
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:13
			think is his best contribution.
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:16
			In terms of English seerah, then I do
		
00:30:16 --> 00:30:16
			like Sealed Nectar.
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:17
			People don't like it.
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:18
			I like it.
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:22
			Mubarak Puri, I don't know how to pronounce
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:22
			his name.
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:23
			Puri, Puri.
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:25
			Sorry, did we offend you, Hisham?
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:27
			Yes, Mubarak Puri.
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:28
			Can I have a paan, please?
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:30
			Later.
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:30
			Okay.
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:32
			And then you've got, obviously, the classic ones,
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:34
			Ibn Ishaq, etc.
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:37
			I read two books to start, Adnan Rashid,
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:38
			The Martyrs of Cordoba is very good.
		
00:30:40 --> 00:30:42
			The Moriscos of Spain, I've heard it's arriving
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:43
			by Henry Charles Lee.
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:44
			Did you read it yet?
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:45
			No, no, it's arriving.
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:48
			If you're interested in Islamic Spain, there's lots
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:48
			of things.
		
00:30:49 --> 00:30:50
			I read three books in my life.
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:54
			No, no, there's a book by Maria something
		
00:30:54 --> 00:30:56
			something, I forget her name, but it's called
		
00:30:56 --> 00:31:00
			The Manacol of the somethings, Ornament of the,
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:01
			Ornaments of something something.
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:03
			I need to find that.
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:05
			If you like Spain, that's a good one.
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:06
			Martyrs of Cordoba is very good.
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:08
			It shows you, it's very good.
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:09
			And also this one, I'm interested in reading
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:11
			The Moriscos of Spain.
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:13
			Yeah, so I recommend it.
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:15
			So, he's got good recommendations.
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:16
			Yeah, Inshallah.
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:17
			How many people watching roughly, Zeeshan?
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:21
			Okay, what women can do for Islam nowadays?
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:22
			A lot.
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:24
			No, you go with that one.
		
00:31:26 --> 00:31:28
			So, okay.
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:29
			You don't want to talk about anything, but
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:30
			when it's a woman, now you want to
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:30
			get the mic.
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:31
			Yeah, I'm ready.
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:32
			Okay.
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:33
			Let's see what you have to offer.
		
00:31:33 --> 00:31:34
			Don't be misogynist.
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:34
			Yeah.
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:35
			Yeah.
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:35
			Okay.
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:36
			We know what kind of a man you
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:36
			are.
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:37
			Yeah.
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:37
			Yeah.
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:38
			All right.
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:39
			So, there's a saying in it.
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:41
			Let me, let me whip up the saying.
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:42
			You ready?
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:42
			Yeah.
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:42
			Okay, please.
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:43
			Yes, sir.
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:43
			Yeah.
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:43
			Yeah.
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:46
			Behind every great man is a woman.
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:48
			Yeah, behind every great man.
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:51
			Okay, so this is, I didn't want to
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:52
			mess it up.
		
00:31:52 --> 00:31:54
			So, I'll just read it out.
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:56
			It says, what's the status of women in
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:56
			Islam?
		
00:31:56 --> 00:32:00
			Yeah, when a, when a Muslim girl is
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:03
			born, she becomes a reason for her father
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:04
			to enter Jannah.
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:05
			MashaAllah.
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:08
			When she grows up and marries a man,
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:10
			she completes half of his religion.
		
00:32:10 --> 00:32:10
			Wow.
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:15
			When she becomes a mother, paradise lies under
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:15
			her feet.
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:16
			Wow.
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:21
			So, when it comes to how Islam views
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:24
			women and the contribution women can give, these
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:27
			are three stages in which women are absolutely
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:28
			integral.
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:29
			Yeah.
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:31
			When it comes down to the breakdown of
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:36
			family, it starts actually with liberalism, feminism, and
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:40
			it actually starts with confusing the roles of,
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:40
			in fact, the way that women are a
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:42
			woman is a man, a man is a
		
00:32:42 --> 00:32:45
			woman, and all of this sort of stuff,
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:47
			and all of these notions get put forward.
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:50
			And slowly, when the anchor, I would even
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:53
			say, am I wrong in calling women anchors
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:54
			in our households?
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:55
			You can call them whatever you like.
		
00:32:55 --> 00:32:57
			They are if they are an anchor.
		
00:32:57 --> 00:32:57
			Yes.
		
00:32:58 --> 00:32:58
			Thanks, Ali.
		
00:32:59 --> 00:32:59
			Thanks.
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:01
			No, no, it's true, because you have to
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:01
			lead up an anchor.
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:02
			Oh, of course.
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:05
			But what I'm saying is, inherently, their role
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:07
			is as important as that of an anchor.
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:10
			And if the anchor is removed, especially here
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:12
			in the Western countries, I've seen men whose
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:16
			entire lives have been ruined because they can't
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:17
			access their children.
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:20
			They can't see their children, and things have
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:21
			gone sour.
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:26
			But then things continue being turned sour by,
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:29
			unfortunately, people trying to weaponize their children and
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:30
			etc.
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:34
			But I guess, quite simply, what can women
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:35
			do for Islam nowadays?
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:38
			I'm not saying this is the only and,
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:42
			you know, solitary role, but one role that
		
00:33:42 --> 00:33:44
			I will highlight, because of what the West
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:47
			is doing, which is trying to undermine the
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:51
			role of motherhood in the house, in which,
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:54
			oh, she's just a housewife, yeah?
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:56
			Oh, my husband told me to get coffee.
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:58
			I told him to get it himself.
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:01
			However, when I went to work, I get
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:03
			paid 15 pounds an hour.
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:05
			He told me, I want a coffee.
		
00:34:05 --> 00:34:07
			I got him a cappuccino.
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:08
			I got him a flat white.
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:10
			I got him a frappuccino with extra cream.
		
00:34:11 --> 00:34:14
			But she doesn't understand the hypocrisy of her
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:15
			statement there.
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:16
			Lads.
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:16
			Exactly.
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:17
			I mean, one thing I'd like to touch
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:21
			upon is, I forgot the female Sahaba, what
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:22
			do you call them?
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:22
			Sahabiya?
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:23
			Sahabiya.
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:24
			Sahabiya, yeah.
		
00:34:24 --> 00:34:24
			So basically, it's very important.
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:25
			She came to the Prophet ﷺ and she
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:28
			said, Our husbands go to Jihad.
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:30
			They go to Jummah.
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:31
			They do all of these actions, etc.
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:33
			While we're at home and we look after
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:34
			the kids.
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:35
			We look after their honor, etc.
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:37
			What's our reward?
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:39
			And the Prophet ﷺ praised her.
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:41
			Actually, she said this in front of, there
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:42
			was a couple of women behind her, she
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:42
			was speaking on behalf of them.
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:45
			She was a spoken out lady and there
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:45
			was a Sahabi there.
		
00:34:46 --> 00:34:47
			So the Prophet ﷺ said, have you seen
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:49
			more of a greater statement than what this
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:49
			woman just uttered?
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:53
			And he ﷺ told her that you do
		
00:34:53 --> 00:34:55
			get the reward similar to that.
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:55
			Why?
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:57
			Because if you listen to it very carefully,
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:58
			it's very interesting when it comes to marriage
		
00:34:58 --> 00:35:00
			and brothers and sisters listen to this carefully,
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:02
			is that the Prophet ﷺ said that if
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:06
			a woman does her obligatory prayers, obligatory things,
		
00:35:06 --> 00:35:08
			protects her chastity.
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:10
			Yes, and I think there's another thing, I
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:10
			don't remember what it's mentioned.
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:11
			What is it?
		
00:35:11 --> 00:35:12
			It's the chastity.
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:14
			Ta'at, Zawjah, and what do you call
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:14
			it?
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:15
			It was obedient to her husband.
		
00:35:15 --> 00:35:17
			And it's obedient to her husband.
		
00:35:17 --> 00:35:19
			She can enter Jannah from any door.
		
00:35:19 --> 00:35:21
			I really want you guys to understand this.
		
00:35:21 --> 00:35:22
			There's going to be different gates.
		
00:35:22 --> 00:35:23
			There's going to be gates people are going
		
00:35:23 --> 00:35:25
			to enter for fasting, for Salah, for this,
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:26
			for that.
		
00:35:26 --> 00:35:29
			That woman is going to be told you
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:31
			can enter Jannah through any door.
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:33
			Now, can you imagine on the Day of
		
00:35:33 --> 00:35:34
			Judgment where there's a group of people lined
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:36
			up, however, it's going to be on that
		
00:35:36 --> 00:35:37
			day and people are waiting for this for
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:40
			the people who fasted, the people who approved
		
00:35:40 --> 00:35:41
			Salah, et cetera, whatever it is for that
		
00:35:41 --> 00:35:41
			reason.
		
00:35:42 --> 00:35:43
			And the woman is brought to the foreward
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:46
			and said, argument say, you can enter Jannah
		
00:35:46 --> 00:35:47
			through any door.
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:48
			Why such great emphasis?
		
00:35:49 --> 00:35:50
			Why is it so great emphasis?
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:53
			Because like you said, an anchor can be
		
00:35:53 --> 00:35:54
			used for good or bad.
		
00:35:54 --> 00:35:56
			It can stop you from progressing.
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:57
			Yeah.
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:57
			Yeah.
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:59
			So it is very important like Ibn Shaikh
		
00:35:59 --> 00:36:02
			Uthaymeen said, especially for a da'i who
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:04
			is in the front lines, he needs to
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:07
			marry a good woman because brother, I confronted
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:09
			Jada Franzen and I know she's in a
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:10
			very good, like in a better place than
		
00:36:10 --> 00:36:11
			she was before.
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:13
			I mean confronting her was not, it was
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:14
			not.
		
00:36:14 --> 00:36:15
			What place was she in before?
		
00:36:15 --> 00:36:17
			Was she getting beaten from pillar to post
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:19
			allegedly by Paul Golding?
		
00:36:19 --> 00:36:22
			Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, of course,
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:23
			she was, literally.
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:26
			She was, you know, you know, it's a
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:26
			funny thing.
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:28
			You know, it's a funny thing.
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:31
			They accuse us of being wife beaters.
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:31
			Yeah.
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:31
			Okay.
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:33
			And we're like, okay, argument say, our Quran
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:35
			tells us, brother, what's your excuse?
		
00:36:35 --> 00:36:36
			Why are you doing it?
		
00:36:36 --> 00:36:39
			Tommy Robinson, Avi Yemeni, Paul Golding, all of
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:40
			them are known for beating their wives.
		
00:36:40 --> 00:36:42
			Yeah, you can't make this up, the irony.
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:45
			So anyways, so imagine me confronting her, how
		
00:36:45 --> 00:36:47
			she was back then and coming back home
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:48
			to another Jada Franzen.
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:49
			I would have been like, bro, can you
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:50
			imagine you go outside and confront one and
		
00:36:50 --> 00:36:51
			you come back home to another shaitan?
		
00:36:51 --> 00:36:52
			So the point is what?
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:54
			It shows that it's very important that when
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:56
			these things are happening, guys, that as a
		
00:36:56 --> 00:36:59
			woman, you let them see, let them see
		
00:36:59 --> 00:36:59
			this.
		
00:36:59 --> 00:36:59
			Look at this.
		
00:36:59 --> 00:37:00
			Look at this.
		
00:37:00 --> 00:37:01
			Look at his handsome feet.
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:02
			Have you ever seen a feet like this
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:03
			in your life?
		
00:37:03 --> 00:37:06
			Look, look, it's the nur of the wudu,
		
00:37:07 --> 00:37:07
			the wudu.
		
00:37:07 --> 00:37:08
			That's the foot.
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:09
			If Tommy Robinson comes close.
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:12
			I put all the Zionists under this.
		
00:37:16 --> 00:37:17
			This is the height of Tommy Robinson.
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:20
			I put all the Zionists under this one
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:20
			there.
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:22
			That's how Tommy Robinson is.
		
00:37:23 --> 00:37:24
			Anyway, so the point is this, my dear
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:25
			sisters, if you're watching this and brothers as
		
00:37:25 --> 00:37:27
			well, because we have a dirige that's given
		
00:37:27 --> 00:37:29
			to us that we have to obviously look
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:30
			after our wives, etc.
		
00:37:30 --> 00:37:33
			But sisters, it is so important that you
		
00:37:33 --> 00:37:35
			obedience to your husband and we're not talking
		
00:37:35 --> 00:37:36
			about an evil guy.
		
00:37:37 --> 00:37:38
			We're not talking about a guy who doesn't
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:39
			give you your rights, who beats you.
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:41
			I'm not talking about this.
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:43
			I'm talking about a man who is just
		
00:37:43 --> 00:37:44
			obedience to him.
		
00:37:44 --> 00:37:46
			Even if you don't agree with what he's
		
00:37:46 --> 00:37:48
			saying, he is the leader that you picked
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50
			and if he says something, well, let me
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:51
			tell you something, sisters.
		
00:37:51 --> 00:37:53
			Your femininity is what?
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:53
			Let me tell you something.
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:56
			If there's anything, this 6 foot 6 guy,
		
00:37:56 --> 00:37:57
			me 6 foot 2, yes?
		
00:37:58 --> 00:37:59
			And this brother here, what are you, 5
		
00:37:59 --> 00:38:00
			foot 6?
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:01
			He's nothing.
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:03
			He's nothing!
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:10
			We don't look at sizes.
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:10
			You know why?
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:11
			Because who is it?
		
00:38:11 --> 00:38:11
			Was it Abu Bakr?
		
00:38:11 --> 00:38:12
			Who was on the tree?
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:16
			Abdullah Ibn Mas'ud.
		
00:38:16 --> 00:38:17
			Yeah, yeah, yeah.
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:21
			Yeah, Abdullah Ibn Mas'ud, his legs were
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:21
			quite skinny.
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:23
			Yeah, and some of the sahaba were laughing
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:23
			at him.
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:24
			Thin shins.
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:24
			Yeah, thin shins.
		
00:38:25 --> 00:38:26
			Yeah, so some of the sahaba were laughing
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:27
			at him and the prophet came and said,
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:28
			if you live in the sight of Allah,
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:31
			those thin shins, whatever you're laughing at, it
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:32
			is heavy like Mount Uhud.
		
00:38:33 --> 00:38:35
			Okay, so it's not about the size.
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:35
			It's not about the size.
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:38
			Okay, but in a nutshell, guys, wallahi, sisters,
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:38
			if you...
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:39
			Is that what Shimon said?
		
00:38:46 --> 00:38:50
			I'm trying to psychologically understand.
		
00:38:51 --> 00:38:52
			Why are you here with the elbow?
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:53
			I don't know.
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:53
			What is it?
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:55
			This guy loves the sahaba, don't you?
		
00:38:55 --> 00:38:55
			Don't you?
		
00:38:55 --> 00:38:56
			Don't you?
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:58
			But the point is this, like as being
		
00:38:58 --> 00:39:00
			obedient to your husband, you know why?
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:01
			Because wallahi, let me tell you something.
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:02
			Yeah.
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:04
			Coming home to a good wife.
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:05
			Wallahi, let me tell you something, bro.
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:07
			Yeah, I don't need any details, personal details,
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:08
			yeah?
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:09
			But coming home to a good wife.
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:11
			Yeah, brothers and sisters, alhamdulillah, all of our
		
00:39:11 --> 00:39:13
			wives are up and down, but coming home
		
00:39:13 --> 00:39:15
			to peace, serenity, bro.
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:16
			Do you get it?
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:17
			But wallahi, let me tell you something, yeah?
		
00:39:17 --> 00:39:19
			It makes a man want to prosper, but
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:20
			I want to conquer places.
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:21
			Tell me where to conquer.
		
00:39:21 --> 00:39:22
			Yeah, I want to go and do stuff.
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:24
			But when you come home to a shaitan,
		
00:39:24 --> 00:39:25
			when she opens the door, her face is
		
00:39:25 --> 00:39:28
			like, makes you not want to go into
		
00:39:28 --> 00:39:28
			the house.
		
00:39:28 --> 00:39:30
			So kind of like you enter the house
		
00:39:30 --> 00:39:30
			is another fitna.
		
00:39:31 --> 00:39:33
			Wallahi, and again, there are men like that
		
00:39:33 --> 00:39:33
			out there.
		
00:39:33 --> 00:39:36
			But obedience to your husbands, my dear sisters,
		
00:39:36 --> 00:39:37
			and I know there are a lot of
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:38
			men who have flaws.
		
00:39:38 --> 00:39:39
			Men need to be men as well, but
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:41
			let me be honest, in today's time, our
		
00:39:41 --> 00:39:43
			dear sisters are really, really, like, I hear
		
00:39:43 --> 00:39:45
			stories like you said about pushing it, not
		
00:39:45 --> 00:39:46
			seeing the kids, bro.
		
00:39:46 --> 00:39:47
			This is a major sin, bro.
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:48
			This is a major sin, man.
		
00:39:48 --> 00:39:49
			It's a major sin.
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:52
			But anyways, so inshallah, sisters, being good wives,
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:54
			wallahi, it would really, really help that man
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:55
			to serve Islam in the best way possible,
		
00:39:56 --> 00:39:56
			inshallah.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:59
			But there are obviously other ways that you
		
00:39:59 --> 00:40:00
			can serve Islam as well.
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:02
			We can't exhaust all of the options.
		
00:40:03 --> 00:40:04
			This is fundamental because you know, this is
		
00:40:04 --> 00:40:05
			the biggest thing that's lacking.
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:07
			That's why I'm so, look, I could mention
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:08
			a lot of stuff, but right now, the
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:10
			biggest thing that we're lacking is this, bro.
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:11
			I'm so sorry.
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:13
			That's the reason why if this gets fixed,
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:15
			it will fix our households.
		
00:40:15 --> 00:40:16
			Marriages will not be breaking down.
		
00:40:16 --> 00:40:19
			And I'm not blaming the woman alone.
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:20
			There are a lot of men that we
		
00:40:20 --> 00:40:21
			know that don't give the rights.
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:22
			I'm not talking about this kind of man.
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:22
			Please.
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:23
			I'm talking about good men.
		
00:40:23 --> 00:40:24
			I'm talking about good men that have been
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:25
			oppressed.
		
00:40:25 --> 00:40:26
			Okay, good men.
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:27
			Yes, yes, yes.
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:27
			I'm being honest here.
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:29
			Good men who have been oppressed and their
		
00:40:29 --> 00:40:29
			kids.
		
00:40:59 --> 00:41:01
			It's worth mentioning, for example.
		
00:41:01 --> 00:41:02
			Yeah, yeah.
		
00:41:02 --> 00:41:03
			But just in case.
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:07
			No, just in case the sister, Mashallah, says
		
00:41:07 --> 00:41:11
			she's watching and she's like, Alhamdulillah, I tick
		
00:41:11 --> 00:41:12
			a lot of the boxes that you mentioned,
		
00:41:12 --> 00:41:15
			but what else could I do in actual
		
00:41:15 --> 00:41:15
			dawah?
		
00:41:16 --> 00:41:20
			In that regard, for some sisters, obviously, they
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:23
			are definitely required because we need them in,
		
00:41:24 --> 00:41:25
			what's that thing when they go to the
		
00:41:25 --> 00:41:27
			hospitals for pregnancies and stuff like that?
		
00:41:27 --> 00:41:27
			Midwife.
		
00:41:27 --> 00:41:30
			But what's that thing called?
		
00:41:30 --> 00:41:30
			Nurse.
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:31
			Huh?
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:32
			Oh, no.
		
00:41:32 --> 00:41:32
			No.
		
00:41:35 --> 00:41:36
			Gynecologist.
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:37
			Yeah, gynecologist.
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:38
			Yeah, yeah.
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:39
			Gynecologist.
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:39
			Yeah.
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:40
			Did you say?
		
00:41:40 --> 00:41:41
			Gynecologist.
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:41
			Yeah.
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:42
			Yeah.
		
00:41:42 --> 00:41:43
			So even in terms of.
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:43
			Don't be so, you don't know.
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:44
			Don't be pediatricians.
		
00:41:44 --> 00:41:45
			You know it.
		
00:41:46 --> 00:41:50
			Even like in terms of careers, when sisters
		
00:41:50 --> 00:41:53
			go, I know, Mashallah, they go to the
		
00:41:53 --> 00:41:55
			hospital and they require and they request female
		
00:41:55 --> 00:41:56
			doctors.
		
00:41:56 --> 00:41:58
			Sometimes there aren't enough female doctors.
		
00:41:59 --> 00:42:00
			So these brothers.
		
00:42:00 --> 00:42:01
			Well, I wanted to say, I'm sorry.
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:03
			These brothers who come and say, you know,
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:04
			women should not have education.
		
00:42:05 --> 00:42:05
			And it's that.
		
00:42:06 --> 00:42:06
			Come on, man.
		
00:42:07 --> 00:42:08
			What's she saying?
		
00:42:09 --> 00:42:09
			What did she say?
		
00:42:09 --> 00:42:11
			I asked the question.
		
00:42:11 --> 00:42:12
			What's she saying?
		
00:42:13 --> 00:42:14
			She said, I asked the question.
		
00:42:14 --> 00:42:17
			Today was my graduation as a doctor and
		
00:42:17 --> 00:42:17
			I'm not married.
		
00:42:17 --> 00:42:20
			Honestly, I didn't see your comment by Alhamdulillah.
		
00:42:20 --> 00:42:22
			Do you see how we went to that?
		
00:42:22 --> 00:42:22
			Okay.
		
00:42:22 --> 00:42:23
			No, no, but there's a fine line.
		
00:42:23 --> 00:42:24
			There's a fine line.
		
00:42:24 --> 00:42:24
			My sister.
		
00:42:24 --> 00:42:25
			What's her name?
		
00:42:26 --> 00:42:26
			Manar.
		
00:42:26 --> 00:42:27
			Sister Manar.
		
00:42:27 --> 00:42:28
			Listen carefully, sister.
		
00:42:28 --> 00:42:29
			Let me be honest with you.
		
00:42:29 --> 00:42:29
			Congratulations.
		
00:42:29 --> 00:42:30
			First of all, congratulations.
		
00:42:30 --> 00:42:31
			May Allah bless you.
		
00:42:32 --> 00:42:32
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:42:33 --> 00:42:33
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:42:33 --> 00:42:34
			Congratulations.
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:35
			The point is this, sister.
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:36
			Look, your education.
		
00:42:37 --> 00:42:37
			Mashallah.
		
00:42:37 --> 00:42:37
			Let me be honest.
		
00:42:39 --> 00:42:41
			Most men, we don't really, like, this was
		
00:42:41 --> 00:42:42
			something bad.
		
00:42:42 --> 00:42:42
			Wait, wait, wait.
		
00:42:42 --> 00:42:44
			Before you go there, before you go there,
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:45
			because I know you're going to, you're going
		
00:42:45 --> 00:42:46
			to go on Netflix.
		
00:42:46 --> 00:42:47
			No, no, no.
		
00:42:48 --> 00:42:48
			Wait, wait, wait.
		
00:42:49 --> 00:42:50
			I know.
		
00:42:51 --> 00:42:52
			Where am I going to go?
		
00:42:52 --> 00:42:52
			Okay.
		
00:42:52 --> 00:42:53
			What are you going to say?
		
00:42:54 --> 00:42:55
			This is the issue.
		
00:42:56 --> 00:42:57
			No, no, no.
		
00:42:58 --> 00:43:00
			Look, education is good, well and good.
		
00:43:00 --> 00:43:00
			Okay.
		
00:43:00 --> 00:43:01
			Let me be honest.
		
00:43:02 --> 00:43:03
			No, no, no.
		
00:43:06 --> 00:43:07
			I have to be real here.
		
00:43:07 --> 00:43:09
			As a man, look, my wife is a
		
00:43:09 --> 00:43:10
			teacher.
		
00:43:10 --> 00:43:11
			She's done a degree.
		
00:43:11 --> 00:43:11
			Fantastic.
		
00:43:11 --> 00:43:11
			Yes.
		
00:43:12 --> 00:43:12
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:43:12 --> 00:43:14
			She's actually doing a training course, which, not
		
00:43:14 --> 00:43:16
			that she wants to get a career, but
		
00:43:16 --> 00:43:17
			she wants to do, she needs to do
		
00:43:17 --> 00:43:18
			this training course in order to.
		
00:43:18 --> 00:43:20
			Just in case you screw up.
		
00:43:21 --> 00:43:22
			She has a backup plan.
		
00:43:24 --> 00:43:26
			So, the thing is, look, where am I?
		
00:43:26 --> 00:43:27
			Alhamdulillah, two kids.
		
00:43:27 --> 00:43:27
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:43:28 --> 00:43:30
			She wants to do that course, fully support
		
00:43:30 --> 00:43:30
			her.
		
00:43:31 --> 00:43:32
			However, my dear sister, when it comes to
		
00:43:32 --> 00:43:34
			this kind of stuff, education, look, as a
		
00:43:34 --> 00:43:36
			man, we do not really, it's not something
		
00:43:36 --> 00:43:37
			that we really.
		
00:43:37 --> 00:43:38
			She doesn't care about your endorsements.
		
00:43:38 --> 00:43:40
			She doesn't care about your endorsements.
		
00:43:40 --> 00:43:41
			We don't really care about it in that
		
00:43:41 --> 00:43:41
			sense.
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:43
			No, no, no.
		
00:43:43 --> 00:43:43
			However.
		
00:43:45 --> 00:43:46
			I wasn't getting my stereotype.
		
00:43:46 --> 00:43:46
			Yes, yes.
		
00:43:47 --> 00:43:47
			Let me tell you why.
		
00:43:47 --> 00:43:49
			Because, look, you can have a specific job
		
00:43:49 --> 00:43:50
			role, which the Ummah needs.
		
00:43:50 --> 00:43:51
			No problem, all day, every day.
		
00:43:52 --> 00:43:54
			I would want, Alhamdulillah, all day, every day,
		
00:43:54 --> 00:43:57
			a woman who's going to cater for my
		
00:43:57 --> 00:43:58
			wife, et cetera, whatever it is for that
		
00:43:58 --> 00:43:58
			she needs to.
		
00:43:59 --> 00:44:00
			The point is this, Tom.
		
00:44:00 --> 00:44:01
			When it comes across the matter, when you
		
00:44:01 --> 00:44:04
			make your career a priority, trust me, there
		
00:44:04 --> 00:44:06
			are many women who are swearing at feminism,
		
00:44:06 --> 00:44:08
			who have destroyed their life.
		
00:44:08 --> 00:44:10
			Yes, they're in their 40s, 30s, and career
		
00:44:10 --> 00:44:12
			women, this, that, it bought them nothing.
		
00:44:12 --> 00:44:14
			Look, so what we're seeing is that, please,
		
00:44:14 --> 00:44:17
			having a household, having grandchildren.
		
00:44:17 --> 00:44:18
			Yes, seeing this.
		
00:44:18 --> 00:44:20
			Wallahi, this is something, a legacy that you
		
00:44:20 --> 00:44:23
			can leave is far more important.
		
00:44:23 --> 00:44:24
			Again, in the Ummah, if you lived in
		
00:44:24 --> 00:44:26
			an Islamic country, of course, the Ameer-e
		
00:44:26 --> 00:44:28
			-Mu'mineen would say, we need women in the
		
00:44:28 --> 00:44:28
			workforce.
		
00:44:29 --> 00:44:30
			There's nothing wrong with this.
		
00:44:30 --> 00:44:32
			But today, we're living at a time where
		
00:44:32 --> 00:44:33
			it's career, career, career, career.
		
00:44:33 --> 00:44:34
			That's why I have to make this comment.
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:36
			Because it's been pushed out so much, we
		
00:44:36 --> 00:44:38
			need to rewind it a bit and tell
		
00:44:38 --> 00:44:40
			our sisters that, look, as men, I don't
		
00:44:40 --> 00:44:40
			care about my wife's career.
		
00:44:40 --> 00:44:42
			I do not care what degree she had.
		
00:44:42 --> 00:44:44
			It means zero to me.
		
00:44:44 --> 00:44:45
			I tell her she's done it.
		
00:44:45 --> 00:44:46
			May Allah bless her, preserve her, no problem.
		
00:44:46 --> 00:44:48
			But in my eyes, it means nothing to
		
00:44:48 --> 00:44:48
			me.
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:49
			Do you get it?
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:51
			And she realized that when she has kids,
		
00:44:51 --> 00:44:51
			she's at home.
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:53
			Alhamdulillah, she's with her kids.
		
00:44:53 --> 00:44:54
			You can see the true nature of a
		
00:44:54 --> 00:44:54
			woman.
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:56
			And you see many women who have followed
		
00:44:56 --> 00:44:59
			the feministic pathway and are absolutely miserable.
		
00:44:59 --> 00:45:01
			Because imagine, every woman in the nation has
		
00:45:01 --> 00:45:02
			kids.
		
00:45:02 --> 00:45:04
			And those who cannot have kids, it's understandable.
		
00:45:05 --> 00:45:05
			Okay.
		
00:45:06 --> 00:45:07
			Yes.
		
00:45:07 --> 00:45:08
			Subhanallah.
		
00:45:08 --> 00:45:08
			Yes.
		
00:45:09 --> 00:45:10
			But in a nutshell, I would say, my
		
00:45:10 --> 00:45:12
			dear sister, your career is well and good.
		
00:45:12 --> 00:45:14
			But find a good man.
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:17
			And inshallah, serving Islam together and being obedient
		
00:45:17 --> 00:45:19
			to him is paramount, inshallah.
		
00:45:20 --> 00:45:20
			Yeah.
		
00:45:20 --> 00:45:21
			Thank you, Hijab.
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:23
			I wonder how it is to live with
		
00:45:23 --> 00:45:23
			you.
		
00:45:26 --> 00:45:26
			Yes.
		
00:45:27 --> 00:45:27
			What was your question, sister?
		
00:45:28 --> 00:45:29
			So what was you going to say?
		
00:45:29 --> 00:45:29
			Yes.
		
00:45:29 --> 00:45:30
			I was saying that.
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:31
			It's a feministic world you're going into.
		
00:45:31 --> 00:45:35
			Sister, go get a master's, Ph.D. No.
		
00:45:35 --> 00:45:38
			We definitely need sisters to be gynecologists.
		
00:45:40 --> 00:45:42
			Oh, is that it?
		
00:45:42 --> 00:45:43
			And that's just for your wives?
		
00:45:43 --> 00:45:44
			No, no, no.
		
00:45:44 --> 00:45:45
			We don't speak to you.
		
00:45:45 --> 00:45:47
			I'm not addressing those sisters that are going
		
00:45:47 --> 00:45:48
			to be problematic when it comes to this
		
00:45:48 --> 00:45:48
			stuff.
		
00:45:48 --> 00:45:50
			So I'm zooming in and out.
		
00:45:50 --> 00:45:50
			It's distracting me.
		
00:45:50 --> 00:45:51
			Okay.
		
00:45:51 --> 00:45:51
			Stop it.
		
00:45:51 --> 00:45:52
			Ah, you're distracted.
		
00:45:53 --> 00:45:53
			Yeah.
		
00:45:53 --> 00:45:54
			You need to focus.
		
00:45:54 --> 00:45:55
			Let's get the next question.
		
00:45:55 --> 00:45:57
			No, because this is important.
		
00:45:57 --> 00:45:57
			Okay.
		
00:45:58 --> 00:45:59
			Are you trying to cut off the Trump?
		
00:45:59 --> 00:45:59
			Yeah.
		
00:46:00 --> 00:46:01
			You're cutting me off.
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:04
			So there are certain jobs that are absolutely
		
00:46:04 --> 00:46:05
			important and integral for the ummah.
		
00:46:05 --> 00:46:08
			However, when you embark on those jobs, it's
		
00:46:08 --> 00:46:10
			very important to maintain your femininity as well.
		
00:46:10 --> 00:46:11
			Yeah.
		
00:46:11 --> 00:46:12
			That's the balance.
		
00:46:12 --> 00:46:13
			Yeah.
		
00:46:13 --> 00:46:14
			We do need these jobs.
		
00:46:14 --> 00:46:16
			And, of course, it doesn't now mean that
		
00:46:16 --> 00:46:18
			you start doing jobs just for the sake
		
00:46:18 --> 00:46:18
			of zooming in.
		
00:46:18 --> 00:46:20
			And again, it's so annoying.
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:21
			Can you carry on talking?
		
00:46:22 --> 00:46:22
			I'm moving.
		
00:46:22 --> 00:46:23
			Well, you're right in front of me.
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:24
			I don't.
		
00:46:24 --> 00:46:25
			You just want to see your face on
		
00:46:25 --> 00:46:26
			camera.
		
00:46:26 --> 00:46:26
			Yes.
		
00:46:27 --> 00:46:28
			I want to see some consistency.
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:29
			You look handsome.
		
00:46:29 --> 00:46:30
			Because it's a topic that a lot of
		
00:46:30 --> 00:46:31
			people can misconstrue.
		
00:46:31 --> 00:46:33
			Let him speak, for God's sake.
		
00:46:34 --> 00:46:36
			What was I saying?
		
00:46:36 --> 00:46:36
			Oh, my God.
		
00:46:37 --> 00:46:38
			You distracted him.
		
00:46:38 --> 00:46:38
			Yeah.
		
00:46:38 --> 00:46:40
			So balance is incredibly important.
		
00:46:40 --> 00:46:40
			Yeah.
		
00:46:41 --> 00:46:43
			Especially like the point that he's saying is,
		
00:46:43 --> 00:46:45
			he's saying it in the context.
		
00:46:45 --> 00:46:47
			I don't think he added this bit in,
		
00:46:47 --> 00:46:49
			which is when sisters do go to work
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:56
			naturally to survive in the tumultuous job force
		
00:46:56 --> 00:46:59
			that you're in, you will adopt certain masculine
		
00:46:59 --> 00:46:59
			traits.
		
00:46:59 --> 00:47:02
			And those masculine traits, of course, come at
		
00:47:02 --> 00:47:02
			a cost.
		
00:47:02 --> 00:47:03
			They do.
		
00:47:03 --> 00:47:05
			So it's not something that is mentioned a
		
00:47:05 --> 00:47:07
			lot, unfortunately, because we're living in a very
		
00:47:07 --> 00:47:10
			PC world.
		
00:47:10 --> 00:47:12
			And it's not going to be, unfortunately, mentioned
		
00:47:12 --> 00:47:13
			on the members.
		
00:47:13 --> 00:47:15
			And a lot of people do kowtow to
		
00:47:15 --> 00:47:16
			this whole feminist narrative.
		
00:47:17 --> 00:47:18
			Look, we're not saying, yes, women should be
		
00:47:18 --> 00:47:19
			outside.
		
00:47:19 --> 00:47:23
			No, it's very important to work on the
		
00:47:23 --> 00:47:23
			upbringing of children.
		
00:47:24 --> 00:47:25
			However, do we do need a group of
		
00:47:25 --> 00:47:28
			sisters that are integral in Dawa as well?
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:32
			Because obviously it's not appropriate men going, you
		
00:47:32 --> 00:47:35
			know, doing Tarbi of sisters and there's too
		
00:47:35 --> 00:47:36
			much that can go wrong.
		
00:47:36 --> 00:47:38
			So we do need sisters that are qualified
		
00:47:38 --> 00:47:40
			in this regard and that are learning and
		
00:47:40 --> 00:47:42
			being educated in this all the while, keeping
		
00:47:42 --> 00:47:46
			their femininity and all the while maintaining their
		
00:47:46 --> 00:47:48
			family values and their home as well.
		
00:47:48 --> 00:47:50
			It shouldn't come at the cost of doing
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:50
			that.
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:53
			If you're able to balance it, then Alhamdulillah,
		
00:47:53 --> 00:47:54
			please do.
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:55
			Yeah.
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:58
			If you can, the Ummah is, of course,
		
00:47:58 --> 00:47:59
			in great need.
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:02
			There are, unfortunately, not very good role models
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:04
			for Muslim sisters on social media.
		
00:48:05 --> 00:48:08
			And when certain sisters do come up and
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:11
			then take their hijabs off, then the Ummah
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:14
			is very frustrated because there are only like
		
00:48:14 --> 00:48:16
			a handful of sisters and let's face it,
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:18
			they're not really, I mean, you can count
		
00:48:18 --> 00:48:19
			their names on your hand.
		
00:48:20 --> 00:48:23
			So we do need representation, but we need
		
00:48:23 --> 00:48:27
			good representation not coming at the cost of
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:27
			your family.
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:28
			Exactly.
		
00:48:28 --> 00:48:30
			But sometimes it's like jumping in water.
		
00:48:30 --> 00:48:30
			I don't want to get wet.
		
00:48:31 --> 00:48:34
			So now, are you threatening me?
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:39
			Somebody that is going to do the threatening
		
00:48:39 --> 00:48:40
			is Hamzat.
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:42
			What does Hamzat want?
		
00:48:42 --> 00:48:46
			So firstly, if either of you guys know.
		
00:48:46 --> 00:48:47
			Yeah, I know.
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:47
			I know what's happening.
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:49
			From what I know, Hamzat's retired.
		
00:48:50 --> 00:48:51
			But the question is, He's come back.
		
00:48:51 --> 00:48:52
			He's going to fight Whittaker.
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:53
			Yeah, so that's the question.
		
00:48:54 --> 00:48:55
			Who wins, Hamzat or Whittaker?
		
00:48:55 --> 00:48:56
			I think Hamzat wins.
		
00:48:57 --> 00:48:58
			And I think he wins very convincingly as
		
00:48:58 --> 00:48:59
			well, actually.
		
00:48:59 --> 00:48:59
			Yeah.
		
00:49:00 --> 00:49:03
			I think it requires, honestly, I think it
		
00:49:03 --> 00:49:04
			requires a light heavyweight to beat him.
		
00:49:04 --> 00:49:05
			Yeah.
		
00:49:05 --> 00:49:06
			Yeah, I think so.
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:07
			He's a big middleweight, bro.
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:09
			I wrestled with him.
		
00:49:09 --> 00:49:09
			I can tell.
		
00:49:09 --> 00:49:11
			And when I wrestled with him, I know
		
00:49:11 --> 00:49:12
			it looked like he was having a good
		
00:49:12 --> 00:49:13
			time and he was.
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:15
			But when he grabbed me, he felt like
		
00:49:15 --> 00:49:16
			a heavyweight.
		
00:49:16 --> 00:49:17
			He felt like a heavyweight.
		
00:49:17 --> 00:49:19
			He felt like at least a light heavyweight,
		
00:49:20 --> 00:49:20
			bro.
		
00:49:20 --> 00:49:22
			And recently, he just done a grappling match
		
00:49:22 --> 00:49:23
			with Luke Rockhold.
		
00:49:24 --> 00:49:25
			And he dominated him.
		
00:49:25 --> 00:49:27
			And he was actually taking it easy.
		
00:49:28 --> 00:49:29
			Yeah, yeah, yeah.
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:31
			So I think that Hamzat's going to win
		
00:49:31 --> 00:49:32
			that fight.
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:33
			And I think he will become the middleweight
		
00:49:33 --> 00:49:34
			champion.
		
00:49:35 --> 00:49:37
			Obviously, someone like Pereira could give him a
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:37
			hard time.
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:39
			But I think he'll beat Pereira as well,
		
00:49:39 --> 00:49:39
			bro.
		
00:49:39 --> 00:49:40
			Because the wrestling will.
		
00:49:41 --> 00:49:43
			I think if he wrestles Pereira before Pereira,
		
00:49:43 --> 00:49:44
			like, catches him.
		
00:49:44 --> 00:49:45
			Pereira catches him.
		
00:49:45 --> 00:49:46
			Then it's a problem.
		
00:49:46 --> 00:49:49
			But if he wrestles him down, Pereira has
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:50
			absolutely no chance getting up.
		
00:49:51 --> 00:49:51
			Zero.
		
00:49:51 --> 00:49:52
			Zero chance.
		
00:49:52 --> 00:49:54
			If there's a wrestling match and Pereira's involved
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:58
			in that, then Pereira has no chance at
		
00:49:58 --> 00:49:59
			all surviving that exchange.
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:01
			And he could get submitted.
		
00:50:01 --> 00:50:02
			I think that he would be a favorite,
		
00:50:02 --> 00:50:04
			in fact, if they fought him in Pereira
		
00:50:04 --> 00:50:05
			for the middleweight championship.
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:08
			So Hamzat has just been sick.
		
00:50:09 --> 00:50:10
			And I think what it is is that
		
00:50:10 --> 00:50:11
			he overworks.
		
00:50:13 --> 00:50:15
			But he overtrains, basically.
		
00:50:16 --> 00:50:16
			And then he gets sick.
		
00:50:17 --> 00:50:18
			Yeah, he gets a bit overexcited.
		
00:50:18 --> 00:50:19
			He overtrains.
		
00:50:19 --> 00:50:20
			Then he gets sick.
		
00:50:20 --> 00:50:21
			And then he can't make the fight.
		
00:50:21 --> 00:50:23
			If he makes this fight, he'll win it.
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:25
			Like last time he fought Kamaru Uzman.
		
00:50:26 --> 00:50:28
			And some of the commentators are saying it
		
00:50:28 --> 00:50:29
			was a close fight.
		
00:50:29 --> 00:50:30
			It was not a close fight.
		
00:50:31 --> 00:50:31
			Just watch it again.
		
00:50:32 --> 00:50:33
			Watch the first couple of rounds.
		
00:50:34 --> 00:50:34
			Complete *.
		
00:50:35 --> 00:50:39
			So in terms of the welterweights, no, middleweights,
		
00:50:39 --> 00:50:40
			I think he'll destroy everyone.
		
00:50:40 --> 00:50:42
			And he'll require a light heavyweight to beat
		
00:50:42 --> 00:50:43
			him.
		
00:50:43 --> 00:50:43
			That's what I think.
		
00:50:44 --> 00:50:46
			Ali, what's your opinion about this?
		
00:50:46 --> 00:50:47
			I think what Hijabz said was correct.
		
00:50:48 --> 00:50:50
			I have first-hand experience with Hamzat Shumair.
		
00:50:50 --> 00:50:51
			Yeah, we know that.
		
00:50:52 --> 00:50:54
			I came closer to taking him down from
		
00:50:54 --> 00:50:55
			any of these chumps in the UFC.
		
00:50:55 --> 00:50:56
			I mean, I don't know.
		
00:50:56 --> 00:50:57
			That's not what you told us.
		
00:50:58 --> 00:51:01
			I mean, he's talking about fear, heartbeating, nosebleeds
		
00:51:01 --> 00:51:02
			and stuff like that.
		
00:51:03 --> 00:51:06
			Guys, I don't like school due to all
		
00:51:06 --> 00:51:08
			the fitna that Muslims do.
		
00:51:08 --> 00:51:12
			What I do, I'm in year 10.
		
00:51:12 --> 00:51:13
			Please pray for me.
		
00:51:13 --> 00:51:15
			I want to leave this toxic, poisoned school
		
00:51:15 --> 00:51:16
			after GCSE.
		
00:51:16 --> 00:51:18
			Okay, I'll pray for you, man.
		
00:51:20 --> 00:51:22
			I didn't hear the question.
		
00:51:22 --> 00:51:24
			So kids that are in a toxic environment
		
00:51:24 --> 00:51:27
			at school, that are going through stuff, and
		
00:51:27 --> 00:51:30
			they feel like, yeah, you know what, I
		
00:51:30 --> 00:51:31
			can't wait till I leave this toxic environment.
		
00:51:32 --> 00:51:34
			Can they ever leave quote-unquote toxic environments?
		
00:51:34 --> 00:51:38
			Or should they learn to manage and deal
		
00:51:38 --> 00:51:41
			with it because they're going to be in
		
00:51:41 --> 00:51:43
			certain job environments that they can't control and
		
00:51:43 --> 00:51:44
			other situations that they can't control?
		
00:51:45 --> 00:51:47
			I think that the Prophet Muhammad, peace be
		
00:51:47 --> 00:51:57
			upon him, he mentioned, He said that the
		
00:51:57 --> 00:51:59
			one who mixes with the people and he's
		
00:51:59 --> 00:52:02
			patient upon their tribulation is better than the
		
00:52:02 --> 00:52:03
			one who does not mix with the people
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:04
			and is not patient with their tribulation.
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:06
			The fact that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:52:07 --> 00:52:09
			put you in this environment means he wants
		
00:52:09 --> 00:52:10
			to test you in a certain way.
		
00:52:10 --> 00:52:11
			That's the bottom line.
		
00:52:11 --> 00:52:13
			And you don't really have a choice in
		
00:52:13 --> 00:52:13
			that.
		
00:52:13 --> 00:52:15
			So yes, you're in a toxic environment, but
		
00:52:15 --> 00:52:16
			don't use that as an excuse.
		
00:52:17 --> 00:52:19
			I'm sorry to say, you know, I grew
		
00:52:19 --> 00:52:20
			up, you grew up, and Ali grew up,
		
00:52:20 --> 00:52:23
			all of us grew up in schools like
		
00:52:23 --> 00:52:23
			that.
		
00:52:23 --> 00:52:25
			You know, in schools where there's a toxic
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:27
			environment, where there was fighting happening, where there
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:30
			was boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, where there was, you
		
00:52:30 --> 00:52:31
			know, drugs being consumed.
		
00:52:32 --> 00:52:32
			Do you know what I'm trying to say?
		
00:52:32 --> 00:52:33
			We live in the West.
		
00:52:34 --> 00:52:36
			And so there's only a few parts in
		
00:52:36 --> 00:52:38
			the world, even in the Muslim world, which
		
00:52:38 --> 00:52:40
			doesn't have those features.
		
00:52:40 --> 00:52:43
			So it's not about, like Bruce Lee said,
		
00:52:43 --> 00:52:44
			I don't pray to God to have an
		
00:52:44 --> 00:52:45
			easy life.
		
00:52:45 --> 00:52:47
			I pray to God to be able to
		
00:52:47 --> 00:52:48
			deal with a difficult one.
		
00:52:48 --> 00:52:49
			Do you know what I mean?
		
00:52:49 --> 00:52:51
			So try and change your mindset here.
		
00:52:51 --> 00:52:53
			The mindset is not, oh, you know, it's
		
00:52:53 --> 00:52:54
			a toxic environment.
		
00:52:54 --> 00:52:55
			What isn't a toxic environment?
		
00:52:55 --> 00:52:56
			It's about, are you going to be a
		
00:52:56 --> 00:52:57
			sheep or are you going to be a
		
00:52:57 --> 00:52:57
			shepherd?
		
00:52:57 --> 00:52:58
			Are you going to be affected or are
		
00:52:58 --> 00:52:59
			you going to be affected?
		
00:53:00 --> 00:53:00
			You know?
		
00:53:01 --> 00:53:04
			That's a good point because you complaining about
		
00:53:04 --> 00:53:07
			a toxic environment is quite a passive comment.
		
00:53:07 --> 00:53:09
			But as Muslims, we should be active.
		
00:53:10 --> 00:53:12
			You might, Allah forbid, be in a relationship
		
00:53:12 --> 00:53:14
			in which there might be toxicity.
		
00:53:14 --> 00:53:16
			There might be some toxicity with your kids.
		
00:53:16 --> 00:53:17
			You might be at a workplace in which
		
00:53:17 --> 00:53:18
			there's toxicity.
		
00:53:19 --> 00:53:21
			The whole point is to become active, somebody
		
00:53:21 --> 00:53:24
			that changes the toxic nature of these places
		
00:53:24 --> 00:53:27
			and environments, equipping yourself with certain characteristics and
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:31
			traits that people can benefit from and that
		
00:53:31 --> 00:53:32
			you will be like a candle.
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:33
			The room may be dark.
		
00:53:33 --> 00:53:36
			However, as soon as a candle enters, that's
		
00:53:36 --> 00:53:36
			it.
		
00:53:36 --> 00:53:38
			It gives light to its surrounding.
		
00:53:39 --> 00:53:41
			And the more candles that we have, of
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:43
			course, the more light we'll have.
		
00:53:43 --> 00:53:44
			That's a good point.
		
00:53:45 --> 00:53:46
			I like that, Isha.
		
00:53:46 --> 00:53:47
			I'm going to go up to Isha.
		
00:53:47 --> 00:53:47
			Carry on, guys.
		
00:53:48 --> 00:53:52
			Yeah, so if we're constantly hoping for our
		
00:53:52 --> 00:53:54
			environment to change, then even people that are
		
00:53:54 --> 00:53:58
			in Muslim countries, they complain as well that
		
00:53:58 --> 00:53:59
			it's not Muslim enough.
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:02
			So my point is that there's never going
		
00:54:02 --> 00:54:04
			to be an environment that's going to be
		
00:54:04 --> 00:54:08
			non-toxic at that level that you want
		
00:54:08 --> 00:54:09
			it to be, isn't it?
		
00:54:10 --> 00:54:10
			Mm-hmm.
		
00:54:11 --> 00:54:12
			Let's see the next one.
		
00:54:27 --> 00:54:29
			Somebody comments, smile to Jannah.
		
00:54:31 --> 00:54:33
			Would you like to answer the question?
		
00:54:33 --> 00:54:34
			Yes.
		
00:54:50 --> 00:54:52
			While we wait...
		
00:54:55 --> 00:54:57
			AI becoming a Muslim video.
		
00:54:58 --> 00:54:59
			Yeah.
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:02
			So can you comment on the AI becoming
		
00:55:02 --> 00:55:04
			a Muslim video from Lily?
		
00:55:05 --> 00:55:06
			I don't know anything about this.
		
00:55:06 --> 00:55:09
			So I think it was a sister who
		
00:55:09 --> 00:55:12
			asked AI about what religion...
		
00:55:13 --> 00:55:13
			Who's Lily?
		
00:55:13 --> 00:55:15
			I think it's a sister...
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:16
			Okay.
		
00:55:16 --> 00:55:19
			...who asked AI about religion and it was
		
00:55:19 --> 00:55:23
			favoring Islam in terms of its truth, in
		
00:55:23 --> 00:55:24
			terms of its validity.
		
00:55:24 --> 00:55:25
			And even if it didn't, who cares?
		
00:55:26 --> 00:55:27
			It's just a script.
		
00:55:27 --> 00:55:29
			And to be fair, I see a lot
		
00:55:29 --> 00:55:31
			of people getting excited about this stuff, but
		
00:55:31 --> 00:55:33
			the danger with that is AI is relying
		
00:55:33 --> 00:55:35
			upon the input it gets.
		
00:55:35 --> 00:55:35
			Exactly, yeah.
		
00:55:35 --> 00:55:36
			And it can change.
		
00:55:36 --> 00:55:38
			So today you might be excited.
		
00:55:38 --> 00:55:42
			Maybe it's in its infancy and it's upon
		
00:55:42 --> 00:55:45
			the fitra, but tomorrow with more input, and
		
00:55:45 --> 00:55:47
			now certain people have seen those videos go
		
00:55:47 --> 00:55:49
			viral, they're probably giving it different inputs and
		
00:55:49 --> 00:55:51
			tomorrow there might be a different answer.
		
00:55:51 --> 00:55:51
			Absolutely.
		
00:55:51 --> 00:55:53
			So AI is not objective.
		
00:55:53 --> 00:55:57
			It's based upon and relies heavily upon inputs.
		
00:55:59 --> 00:55:59
			Hijab.
		
00:55:59 --> 00:56:02
			In your opinion, in which age should a
		
00:56:02 --> 00:56:03
			boy get married?
		
00:56:06 --> 00:56:06
			Where?
		
00:56:06 --> 00:56:07
			In the West?
		
00:56:07 --> 00:56:08
			Yeah, here in the West.
		
00:56:08 --> 00:56:08
			18?
		
00:56:08 --> 00:56:08
			20?
		
00:56:09 --> 00:56:11
			I got married at 20.
		
00:56:12 --> 00:56:12
			You know what I mean?
		
00:56:13 --> 00:56:13
			Yeah.
		
00:56:13 --> 00:56:14
			I think that's like...
		
00:56:14 --> 00:56:15
			What age?
		
00:56:15 --> 00:56:17
			Let me rephrase it.
		
00:56:17 --> 00:56:17
			Yeah.
		
00:56:17 --> 00:56:18
			First year of uni is good.
		
00:56:19 --> 00:56:20
			In which...
		
00:56:20 --> 00:56:23
			Nowadays, from your experience, when are you seeing
		
00:56:23 --> 00:56:26
			boys mature?
		
00:56:26 --> 00:56:28
			Mature in terms of their mentality.
		
00:56:29 --> 00:56:31
			Look, I think that, you know, you don't
		
00:56:31 --> 00:56:33
			learn to swim until you get in the
		
00:56:33 --> 00:56:33
			water.
		
00:56:34 --> 00:56:34
			Yeah?
		
00:56:35 --> 00:56:36
			And marriage is like swimming.
		
00:56:37 --> 00:56:38
			So if you want to learn how to
		
00:56:38 --> 00:56:39
			swim, you need to get married.
		
00:56:39 --> 00:56:40
			There's no other way of doing it.
		
00:56:40 --> 00:56:42
			You can't actually read marriage in a book.
		
00:56:42 --> 00:56:43
			I can tell you that for a fact.
		
00:56:43 --> 00:56:44
			It's like fatherhood, motherhood.
		
00:56:45 --> 00:56:47
			There are certain relationships you cannot get by
		
00:56:47 --> 00:56:48
			a reading list.
		
00:56:48 --> 00:56:50
			It's just through practice that you have to
		
00:56:50 --> 00:56:50
			do it.
		
00:56:51 --> 00:56:53
			And in terms of marriage, I think the
		
00:56:53 --> 00:56:55
			first year of uni is pretty good.
		
00:56:56 --> 00:56:59
			Because like in the UK, for example, you've
		
00:56:59 --> 00:57:00
			got the A-levels.
		
00:57:00 --> 00:57:02
			It's very difficult for someone to get married
		
00:57:02 --> 00:57:03
			in A-levels.
		
00:57:03 --> 00:57:03
			Yeah?
		
00:57:04 --> 00:57:05
			First year of uni, there's a lot of
		
00:57:05 --> 00:57:06
			fitna happening.
		
00:57:06 --> 00:57:07
			A lot of people doing relationships and stuff.
		
00:57:07 --> 00:57:08
			There's a lot more independence.
		
00:57:08 --> 00:57:09
			People don't care as much.
		
00:57:09 --> 00:57:11
			It's not a taboo as much.
		
00:57:12 --> 00:57:13
			You know, if someone's got an Islamic marriage
		
00:57:13 --> 00:57:15
			in the first year of uni, a lot
		
00:57:15 --> 00:57:16
			of people had Islamic marriage in the first
		
00:57:16 --> 00:57:17
			year of uni.
		
00:57:17 --> 00:57:18
			You know what I mean?
		
00:57:18 --> 00:57:19
			So I got married in the second year
		
00:57:19 --> 00:57:19
			of uni.
		
00:57:20 --> 00:57:21
			If it was up to me, I would
		
00:57:21 --> 00:57:23
			have probably got married in the first year
		
00:57:23 --> 00:57:25
			of uni when I went to university.
		
00:57:25 --> 00:57:27
			So I think that, you know, like for
		
00:57:27 --> 00:57:29
			a man or for a woman, anything between
		
00:57:29 --> 00:57:31
			18 to 20 is good.
		
00:57:32 --> 00:57:33
			And why?
		
00:57:33 --> 00:57:35
			Because there is an aspect of in this
		
00:57:35 --> 00:57:39
			country, okay, education finishes at 18, okay?
		
00:57:39 --> 00:57:40
			16 is compulsory.
		
00:57:40 --> 00:57:44
			And like 16 to 18 is the years
		
00:57:44 --> 00:57:45
			before university.
		
00:57:45 --> 00:57:46
			If you're thinking of going to university, it
		
00:57:46 --> 00:57:48
			might be quite difficult doing A-levels and
		
00:57:48 --> 00:57:49
			thinking about marriage at the same time.
		
00:57:49 --> 00:57:51
			That might be difficult, for example.
		
00:57:51 --> 00:57:53
			So for me, I think that a good
		
00:57:53 --> 00:57:54
			– this is a preference.
		
00:57:54 --> 00:57:55
			This is like, you know, opinion.
		
00:57:56 --> 00:57:58
			If you ask me my opinion, I did
		
00:57:58 --> 00:57:58
			that.
		
00:57:58 --> 00:57:59
			I didn't look back.
		
00:57:59 --> 00:58:00
			I don't think there's anything wrong with doing
		
00:58:00 --> 00:58:00
			that.
		
00:58:00 --> 00:58:02
			I think that was actually quite good.
		
00:58:02 --> 00:58:05
			Some would argue, did it affect your degree?
		
00:58:05 --> 00:58:06
			Did it affect like the fact that you
		
00:58:06 --> 00:58:08
			were going to, you know, uni and stuff
		
00:58:08 --> 00:58:08
			like that?
		
00:58:08 --> 00:58:09
			No, it did affect it.
		
00:58:09 --> 00:58:11
			It affected it for the better because actually
		
00:58:11 --> 00:58:13
			some of the distractions were less.
		
00:58:13 --> 00:58:14
			Do you know what I'm trying to say?
		
00:58:14 --> 00:58:16
			Like, you know, you don't have that added
		
00:58:16 --> 00:58:17
			burden of looking for someone.
		
00:58:17 --> 00:58:19
			Now you're looking for someone because it is
		
00:58:19 --> 00:58:20
			a burden, bro.
		
00:58:20 --> 00:58:22
			Looking for someone to marry is a burden.
		
00:58:22 --> 00:58:25
			I don't find that as a pleasurable experience.
		
00:58:25 --> 00:58:27
			I find that as a very kind of
		
00:58:27 --> 00:58:30
			like laborious and tedious and stressful experience.
		
00:58:30 --> 00:58:31
			Do you know what I'm trying to say?
		
00:58:31 --> 00:58:34
			Looking for someone to marry and this and
		
00:58:34 --> 00:58:34
			that.
		
00:58:35 --> 00:58:36
			You know, back in the days, you know,
		
00:58:37 --> 00:58:38
			now people are doing it through apps.
		
00:58:39 --> 00:58:41
			And yes, there were a few apps back
		
00:58:41 --> 00:58:41
			in the days.
		
00:58:42 --> 00:58:43
			But the way we did it was pretty
		
00:58:43 --> 00:58:44
			crass.
		
00:58:44 --> 00:58:47
			Like we, as young men, yeah, we're looking
		
00:58:47 --> 00:58:48
			for a woman to get married.
		
00:58:48 --> 00:58:51
			We'd actually walk and speak to women cold.
		
00:58:52 --> 00:58:52
			Yeah.
		
00:58:53 --> 00:58:53
			Yeah, bro.
		
00:58:54 --> 00:58:56
			I couldn't afford jackets and stuff.
		
00:58:58 --> 00:58:58
			Brother.
		
00:58:59 --> 00:59:00
			So, you know, for example, we see a
		
00:59:00 --> 00:59:02
			woman in the streets and she looked very
		
00:59:02 --> 00:59:03
			nice.
		
00:59:03 --> 00:59:06
			I'm not, you know, I'm just saying.
		
00:59:06 --> 00:59:07
			I think it's time for the next question
		
00:59:07 --> 00:59:07
			now.
		
00:59:07 --> 00:59:08
			No, no, I'm just, that's how we did
		
00:59:08 --> 00:59:08
			it.
		
00:59:09 --> 00:59:10
			I would say, listen, we're looking to get
		
00:59:10 --> 00:59:11
			married, blah, blah, blah.
		
00:59:12 --> 00:59:14
			You know, can I have your dad's number?
		
00:59:14 --> 00:59:15
			Or can we do it this way?
		
00:59:15 --> 00:59:17
			I want to find out about you or
		
00:59:17 --> 00:59:17
			whatever.
		
00:59:17 --> 00:59:19
			And that would be a very difficult thing
		
00:59:19 --> 00:59:19
			to do.
		
00:59:21 --> 00:59:23
			You know, and it was, it's being a
		
00:59:23 --> 00:59:26
			Muslim and doing it that way or trying
		
00:59:26 --> 00:59:27
			to find someone who knew somebody who knew
		
00:59:27 --> 00:59:27
			somebody.
		
00:59:27 --> 00:59:28
			You know what I mean?
		
00:59:28 --> 00:59:29
			It's long.
		
00:59:29 --> 00:59:30
			It's long and it's tiring.
		
00:59:30 --> 00:59:32
			And there's some people enjoy that kind of
		
00:59:32 --> 00:59:32
			thing.
		
00:59:32 --> 00:59:34
			I've met a lot of brothers that enjoy
		
00:59:34 --> 00:59:34
			this.
		
00:59:35 --> 00:59:35
			They enjoy it.
		
00:59:35 --> 00:59:37
			I don't know about you, but I've met
		
00:59:37 --> 00:59:39
			a lot of brothers that enjoy the process.
		
00:59:39 --> 00:59:41
			They call it the chase or the hunt
		
00:59:41 --> 00:59:41
			or this or whatever.
		
00:59:42 --> 00:59:43
			I don't enjoy any of that rubbish.
		
00:59:43 --> 00:59:44
			I'm not going to lie to you.
		
00:59:44 --> 00:59:46
			I just want...
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:46
			You enjoy the food.
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:47
			Stability.
		
00:59:47 --> 00:59:48
			Yeah, man.
		
00:59:48 --> 00:59:50
			Okay, so the next question is Hijab.
		
00:59:51 --> 00:59:53
			What did you learn while doing Burning Hands?
		
00:59:54 --> 00:59:56
			Because it was a long and tedious process.
		
00:59:57 --> 00:59:59
			It was something you weren't familiar with.
		
00:59:59 --> 00:59:59
			Yeah.
		
00:59:59 --> 01:00:01
			It was something you were kind of...
		
01:00:02 --> 01:00:03
			Okay, I'll be honest with you, brother.
		
01:00:03 --> 01:00:05
			Like, you know, I was with like, I
		
01:00:05 --> 01:00:07
			don't know, almost 20 actors.
		
01:00:07 --> 01:00:07
			Yeah.
		
01:00:08 --> 01:00:10
			And if you watch Burning Hands, a lot
		
01:00:10 --> 01:00:11
			of those actors were very good actors.
		
01:00:12 --> 01:00:15
			Like, for example, actually, I shouldn't say example
		
01:00:15 --> 01:00:17
			because someone's going to get offended if someone's
		
01:00:17 --> 01:00:17
			watching, yeah?
		
01:00:17 --> 01:00:17
			Yeah.
		
01:00:18 --> 01:00:20
			But there's many good actors that have been
		
01:00:20 --> 01:00:20
			spoken about.
		
01:00:20 --> 01:00:22
			I was in an environment where I was
		
01:00:22 --> 01:00:23
			not...
		
01:00:23 --> 01:00:25
			Like, when I'm in a public speaking environment,
		
01:00:25 --> 01:00:26
			as bad as arrogant as it may sound,
		
01:00:27 --> 01:00:28
			I feel like I'm one of the best.
		
01:00:29 --> 01:00:30
			I always feel like I'm one of the
		
01:00:30 --> 01:00:30
			best.
		
01:00:31 --> 01:00:31
			You know what I mean?
		
01:00:31 --> 01:00:34
			If I'm about to give a lecture in
		
01:00:34 --> 01:00:36
			front of the people, there's no one in
		
01:00:36 --> 01:00:37
			that room that can do this better than
		
01:00:37 --> 01:00:37
			me.
		
01:00:37 --> 01:00:38
			Call it arrogance.
		
01:00:38 --> 01:00:39
			Call it arrogance.
		
01:00:39 --> 01:00:41
			You know, the way it comes across, the
		
01:00:41 --> 01:00:43
			performance, this, that, the...
		
01:00:43 --> 01:00:44
			Even the knowledge, whatever.
		
01:00:44 --> 01:00:45
			I just feel like I'm the best person
		
01:00:45 --> 01:00:47
			suited for this thing, yeah?
		
01:00:47 --> 01:00:48
			I am the kingpin.
		
01:00:48 --> 01:00:49
			I am the champ.
		
01:00:49 --> 01:00:50
			I do think that in my head.
		
01:00:50 --> 01:00:52
			When it comes to public speaking, when it
		
01:00:52 --> 01:00:53
			comes to debating, when it comes to these
		
01:00:53 --> 01:00:54
			aspects.
		
01:00:54 --> 01:00:54
			Yeah.
		
01:00:55 --> 01:00:56
			But when it came to acting, I just
		
01:00:56 --> 01:00:57
			felt like a novice.
		
01:00:57 --> 01:00:59
			I felt like, not even, I was below
		
01:00:59 --> 01:01:00
			novice, like an amateur.
		
01:01:01 --> 01:01:02
			And it was humbling.
		
01:01:02 --> 01:01:03
			If I was to be honest with you,
		
01:01:03 --> 01:01:04
			it was like, everyone was getting a bit
		
01:01:04 --> 01:01:04
			frustrated.
		
01:01:05 --> 01:01:06
			I'd come onto the set and I had
		
01:01:06 --> 01:01:07
			not memorized the lines.
		
01:01:09 --> 01:01:10
			Because you have to memorize the lines, you
		
01:01:10 --> 01:01:10
			know?
		
01:01:11 --> 01:01:12
			So I was doing it on the day.
		
01:01:13 --> 01:01:14
			Or the day before, do you know what
		
01:01:14 --> 01:01:14
			I mean?
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:15
			Yeah, that's annoying.
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:17
			And these guys were like professional and stuff
		
01:01:17 --> 01:01:17
			like that.
		
01:01:18 --> 01:01:18
			So annoying.
		
01:01:19 --> 01:01:20
			The day was long.
		
01:01:21 --> 01:01:23
			So you'd have like a 12-hour day
		
01:01:23 --> 01:01:23
			or something like that.
		
01:01:24 --> 01:01:26
			You remind me of a principle you actually
		
01:01:26 --> 01:01:27
			mentioned a while back and it stuck with
		
01:01:27 --> 01:01:30
			me, which was, anytime you're learning something new,
		
01:01:31 --> 01:01:33
			join a class, you should be the lowest
		
01:01:33 --> 01:01:34
			in that class.
		
01:01:34 --> 01:01:34
			Yeah.
		
01:01:34 --> 01:01:35
			Otherwise you're not benefiting.
		
01:01:36 --> 01:01:37
			I'll be honest, there's an aspect of it.
		
01:01:37 --> 01:01:38
			I'm not going to lie to you.
		
01:01:38 --> 01:01:39
			I'm not going to lie to you.
		
01:01:39 --> 01:01:40
			I'm not going to lie to the public.
		
01:01:41 --> 01:01:43
			Look, the debate circuit is not filled with
		
01:01:43 --> 01:01:44
			people.
		
01:01:44 --> 01:01:44
			Yeah?
		
01:01:45 --> 01:01:47
			After the whole Piers Morgan thing, after the
		
01:01:47 --> 01:01:49
			Jordan Peterson and this and that, these big,
		
01:01:49 --> 01:01:51
			big, big debates, and even after the David
		
01:01:51 --> 01:01:53
			Wood, like in the Christian world, we've only
		
01:01:53 --> 01:01:55
			got William Lane Craig left, really and truly,
		
01:01:55 --> 01:01:57
			as a big, real opponent.
		
01:01:57 --> 01:01:59
			In the atheist world, we've really only got
		
01:01:59 --> 01:02:01
			a couple of names, maybe Sam Harris, Richard
		
01:02:01 --> 01:02:01
			Dawkins.
		
01:02:02 --> 01:02:03
			These are the big names, yeah?
		
01:02:03 --> 01:02:04
			If we can get them, we can get
		
01:02:04 --> 01:02:04
			them.
		
01:02:04 --> 01:02:05
			If we can't, we can't.
		
01:02:05 --> 01:02:08
			But like, in truth, that is the pinnacle.
		
01:02:09 --> 01:02:11
			It's very difficult to...
		
01:02:11 --> 01:02:13
			So then when you've done that, you think
		
01:02:13 --> 01:02:15
			to yourself, I want to do something else.
		
01:02:16 --> 01:02:17
			I want to start from the bottom again.
		
01:02:17 --> 01:02:18
			I want to build up.
		
01:02:18 --> 01:02:20
			So for me, the acting thing was more
		
01:02:20 --> 01:02:20
			like that.
		
01:02:21 --> 01:02:22
			It was more like, okay, I want to
		
01:02:22 --> 01:02:24
			do something for the dawah, something creative, something
		
01:02:24 --> 01:02:26
			new, but on a personal level, something where
		
01:02:26 --> 01:02:29
			I'm not, okay, competing at the highest level.
		
01:02:29 --> 01:02:30
			I want to go back to the bottom
		
01:02:30 --> 01:02:32
			and be a novice again and start again
		
01:02:32 --> 01:02:35
			and climb the mountain again and do the
		
01:02:35 --> 01:02:35
			thing again.
		
01:02:36 --> 01:02:38
			So there was an aspect of that which
		
01:02:38 --> 01:02:39
			I think was enjoyable for me.
		
01:02:40 --> 01:02:42
			And being a novice, being an amateur, being
		
01:02:42 --> 01:02:44
			one of many, yeah, like, I can tell
		
01:02:44 --> 01:02:45
			you it's enjoyable.
		
01:02:45 --> 01:02:47
			Otherwise, I wouldn't have done it.
		
01:02:47 --> 01:02:48
			But in terms of, it is tiring.
		
01:02:49 --> 01:02:51
			You can't just pick up a skill like
		
01:02:51 --> 01:02:51
			that.
		
01:02:51 --> 01:02:53
			You can't just become a very good actor.
		
01:02:53 --> 01:02:56
			For each scene, you're doing like 20 or
		
01:02:56 --> 01:02:57
			30 shots.
		
01:02:58 --> 01:02:58
			You know what I mean?
		
01:02:59 --> 01:03:00
			So it's...
		
01:03:00 --> 01:03:01
			Don't you do that again.
		
01:03:03 --> 01:03:05
			You know what I mean?
		
01:03:05 --> 01:03:06
			So I found that it was good.
		
01:03:08 --> 01:03:10
			In summary, it was a good experience.
		
01:03:10 --> 01:03:12
			You know, it was very...
		
01:03:12 --> 01:03:13
			I learned a lot from that experience.
		
01:03:13 --> 01:03:15
			So mashallah, Ali was praying Isha.
		
01:03:16 --> 01:03:17
			We'll end it in five minutes.
		
01:03:17 --> 01:03:17
			Yeah?
		
01:03:18 --> 01:03:18
			Yeah.
		
01:03:19 --> 01:03:20
			Yeah, you wait.
		
01:03:20 --> 01:03:21
			Alright, you move out of the way please,
		
01:03:21 --> 01:03:21
			yeah?
		
01:03:21 --> 01:03:22
			Yeah, please, son.
		
01:03:22 --> 01:03:22
			Hurry up.
		
01:03:23 --> 01:03:24
			Can I sit down?
		
01:03:24 --> 01:03:25
			Hurry up.
		
01:03:26 --> 01:03:27
			Oh look, there's a guy who wants to
		
01:03:27 --> 01:03:28
			marry a Christian.
		
01:03:29 --> 01:03:30
			I'll give you the fatwa, bro.
		
01:03:32 --> 01:03:33
			I'll give you the fatwa.
		
01:03:35 --> 01:03:36
			Any interesting questions, please.
		
01:03:43 --> 01:03:44
			Don't forget to pray, guys.
		
01:03:45 --> 01:03:46
			For your Isha.
		
01:03:47 --> 01:03:48
			Alright, Ali.
		
01:03:48 --> 01:03:50
			What do I do if I'm in a
		
01:03:50 --> 01:03:51
			haram relationship?
		
01:03:51 --> 01:03:53
			I want to marry her for the sake
		
01:03:53 --> 01:03:55
			of Allah, but I can't right now.
		
01:03:55 --> 01:03:57
			Look, this is...
		
01:03:57 --> 01:03:57
			I think...
		
01:03:57 --> 01:03:58
			Wallahi, yeah?
		
01:03:59 --> 01:04:00
			I just don't understand the mentality of this.
		
01:04:01 --> 01:04:03
			Look, the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said
		
01:04:03 --> 01:04:03
			this.
		
01:04:03 --> 01:04:07
			He says, لا يؤمن أحدكم حتى يكون هواه
		
01:04:07 --> 01:04:10
			تبعا لما جئت به that you don't truly
		
01:04:10 --> 01:04:13
			believe until your Hawa, your desires, are in
		
01:04:13 --> 01:04:15
			line with what I have come with.
		
01:04:16 --> 01:04:19
			Whatever emotion you're feeling in this whatever relationship
		
01:04:19 --> 01:04:21
			it is, I'm sorry to say, if you
		
01:04:21 --> 01:04:24
			cannot emotionally regulate, yeah, you're not going to
		
01:04:24 --> 01:04:26
			survive in any marriage.
		
01:04:26 --> 01:04:27
			What are you doing?
		
01:04:27 --> 01:04:30
			If you cannot regulate your emotions, like there's
		
01:04:30 --> 01:04:31
			many emotions that are going to come into
		
01:04:31 --> 01:04:34
			your life, marriage or non-marriage, life in
		
01:04:34 --> 01:04:34
			general.
		
01:04:34 --> 01:04:37
			If you cannot regulate your emotions and have
		
01:04:37 --> 01:04:41
			consistency and principles, and these are my boundaries
		
01:04:41 --> 01:04:42
			and stuff, how are you going to survive
		
01:04:42 --> 01:04:45
			in marriage, in fatherhood, in motherhood, in any
		
01:04:45 --> 01:04:45
			of these contexts?
		
01:04:45 --> 01:04:47
			You're going to be a failure in life.
		
01:04:47 --> 01:04:50
			Mentally unresilient, weak mentality.
		
01:04:50 --> 01:04:52
			If you're that kind of person, with all
		
01:04:52 --> 01:04:54
			due respect, you're not going to pass any
		
01:04:54 --> 01:04:55
			test.
		
01:04:55 --> 01:04:56
			And so, you're going to have to start
		
01:04:56 --> 01:05:00
			making, yeah, your life connected to your boundaries
		
01:05:00 --> 01:05:01
			and your principles.
		
01:05:02 --> 01:05:05
			As Malcolm X said, you know, if a
		
01:05:05 --> 01:05:07
			man doesn't stand for anything, he will fall
		
01:05:07 --> 01:05:08
			for everything.
		
01:05:09 --> 01:05:09
			Do you know what I mean?
		
01:05:09 --> 01:05:12
			So, if you're in a haram relationship, oh,
		
01:05:12 --> 01:05:14
			you know, this and that, you can either
		
01:05:14 --> 01:05:17
			marry her, yeah, you can either marry the
		
01:05:17 --> 01:05:21
			sister, you go through with the father, yeah,
		
01:05:21 --> 01:05:23
			or you leave her.
		
01:05:23 --> 01:05:24
			There's no third option.
		
01:05:25 --> 01:05:28
			There's actually no third option.
		
01:05:28 --> 01:05:30
			You either say, I'm going to transform this
		
01:05:30 --> 01:05:33
			haram relationship into a halal relationship, and it
		
01:05:33 --> 01:05:35
			is so easy to do that.
		
01:05:36 --> 01:05:38
			It is so easy to do that.
		
01:05:39 --> 01:05:40
			You might argue with the family, this and
		
01:05:40 --> 01:05:41
			that, and whatever.
		
01:05:41 --> 01:05:43
			Well, whatever, then you cut it off until
		
01:05:43 --> 01:05:45
			the family want to have a conversation with
		
01:05:45 --> 01:05:45
			you.
		
01:05:46 --> 01:05:47
			Do you know what I'm trying to say?
		
01:05:47 --> 01:05:48
			What are you doing?
		
01:05:48 --> 01:05:48
			What are you doing?
		
01:05:48 --> 01:05:50
			Have a haram relationship.
		
01:05:50 --> 01:05:50
			I don't understand.
		
01:05:51 --> 01:05:52
			What's wrong with you?
		
01:05:52 --> 01:05:53
			Go and get a halal relationship.
		
01:05:53 --> 01:05:54
			Do you know how many women there are
		
01:05:54 --> 01:05:55
			that would be willing to have probably a
		
01:05:55 --> 01:05:56
			halal relationship with you?
		
01:05:57 --> 01:05:59
			There's so many women out there that are
		
01:05:59 --> 01:06:01
			willing to have a halal relationship with you,
		
01:06:01 --> 01:06:01
			brother.
		
01:06:01 --> 01:06:02
			There's too many.
		
01:06:03 --> 01:06:04
			Yeah?
		
01:06:04 --> 01:06:05
			So why do you...
		
01:06:05 --> 01:06:06
			What's this?
		
01:06:06 --> 01:06:07
			Come on, man.
		
01:06:08 --> 01:06:10
			In a nutshell, also we need to bear
		
01:06:10 --> 01:06:11
			in mind that she's in a haram relationship
		
01:06:11 --> 01:06:13
			as well, because sometimes we make it seem
		
01:06:13 --> 01:06:15
			as if it's the man that's leading her.
		
01:06:15 --> 01:06:16
			I mean, let's be honest.
		
01:06:18 --> 01:06:19
			Women are not innocent.
		
01:06:19 --> 01:06:21
			Yeah, she's in it as well, both of
		
01:06:21 --> 01:06:21
			them are.
		
01:06:21 --> 01:06:21
			Of course.
		
01:06:22 --> 01:06:23
			So to me, look, I've given this example
		
01:06:23 --> 01:06:24
			many times.
		
01:06:24 --> 01:06:26
			You know, Allah says in the Quran, فَإِنَّمَا
		
01:06:26 --> 01:06:29
			أَلُوسُوا يُسْرَىٰ With hardship comes ease, very with
		
01:06:29 --> 01:06:30
			hardship comes ease.
		
01:06:30 --> 01:06:31
			Drinking alcohol is not hard.
		
01:06:31 --> 01:06:32
			Committing zina is not hard.
		
01:06:33 --> 01:06:34
			Gambling is not hard.
		
01:06:34 --> 01:06:35
			Murder as well.
		
01:06:35 --> 01:06:36
			I mean, it doesn't take...
		
01:06:36 --> 01:06:37
			It's not that hard to pull a trigger.
		
01:06:37 --> 01:06:38
			These things are easily done.
		
01:06:38 --> 01:06:40
			But Allah SWT is telling you with hardship
		
01:06:40 --> 01:06:44
			comes ease, which can mean that if with
		
01:06:44 --> 01:06:47
			hardship comes ease, with ease comes hardship, which
		
01:06:47 --> 01:06:48
			is that anytime you take an easy route,
		
01:06:48 --> 01:06:49
			you're going to see the hardship in the
		
01:06:49 --> 01:06:49
			long run.
		
01:06:50 --> 01:06:52
			Anytime you deal with hardship, you will have
		
01:06:52 --> 01:06:54
			ease on the long run, which means that,
		
01:06:54 --> 01:06:55
			look, you're in a haram relationship, everyone's doing
		
01:06:55 --> 01:06:55
			it.
		
01:06:56 --> 01:06:57
			The easiest thing to do is what?
		
01:06:57 --> 01:06:58
			Get in one yourself.
		
01:06:58 --> 01:06:59
			But the hard thing is to do what?
		
01:06:59 --> 01:07:00
			Abstain from it.
		
01:07:00 --> 01:07:02
			And believe me, I've been in that lifestyle,
		
01:07:03 --> 01:07:04
			I've seen it, and everyone suffers.
		
01:07:05 --> 01:07:06
			Everybody suffers.
		
01:07:06 --> 01:07:07
			There is no, oh, happy and...
		
01:07:07 --> 01:07:08
			Everybody suffers.
		
01:07:09 --> 01:07:10
			Heartbreak is one of the most painful things
		
01:07:10 --> 01:07:11
			you could ever go through.
		
01:07:12 --> 01:07:12
			It leads people to suicide.
		
01:07:13 --> 01:07:14
			I've had people that I know who have
		
01:07:14 --> 01:07:14
			killed theirself.
		
01:07:15 --> 01:07:16
			And you might think, how?
		
01:07:16 --> 01:07:17
			Trust me, it happens.
		
01:07:18 --> 01:07:20
			So it can really, really break you.
		
01:07:20 --> 01:07:21
			And it's not like gambling.
		
01:07:21 --> 01:07:22
			Gambling is an inanimate object.
		
01:07:22 --> 01:07:24
			Alcohol is an inanimate object.
		
01:07:25 --> 01:07:25
			Things.
		
01:07:26 --> 01:07:26
			Yes, okay.
		
01:07:26 --> 01:07:28
			But when it comes to a human being,
		
01:07:28 --> 01:07:30
			you're dealing with a being, and with us
		
01:07:30 --> 01:07:32
			men, you know, same with women as well,
		
01:07:32 --> 01:07:33
			but with men as well, you know, when
		
01:07:33 --> 01:07:34
			you fall in love, you can really fall
		
01:07:34 --> 01:07:35
			in love.
		
01:07:35 --> 01:07:36
			So it works vice versa as well.
		
01:07:37 --> 01:07:37
			But the thing is what?
		
01:07:37 --> 01:07:38
			You're dealing with a human being.
		
01:07:38 --> 01:07:39
			Emotions are involved.
		
01:07:39 --> 01:07:40
			A human being is involved, yeah?
		
01:07:42 --> 01:07:42
			Breakups.
		
01:07:42 --> 01:07:43
			I've seen men who are, who have started
		
01:07:43 --> 01:07:44
			hating women.
		
01:07:45 --> 01:07:46
			And we've seen women who have gone off
		
01:07:46 --> 01:07:47
			tracks.
		
01:07:47 --> 01:07:48
			A woman who had hayaa, shame.
		
01:07:49 --> 01:07:49
			Why?
		
01:07:49 --> 01:07:50
			Because she's committed, you know?
		
01:07:50 --> 01:07:51
			And all this kind of stuff.
		
01:07:51 --> 01:07:52
			And now she's heartbroken.
		
01:07:52 --> 01:07:53
			She's broken.
		
01:07:53 --> 01:07:54
			Now she wants to take it out on
		
01:07:54 --> 01:07:54
			the whole world.
		
01:07:54 --> 01:07:55
			She's going clubbing, partying.
		
01:07:55 --> 01:07:57
			I've seen all of this madness, yeah?
		
01:07:57 --> 01:07:58
			So it shows you what?
		
01:07:58 --> 01:07:59
			When you take the easy route, get ready
		
01:07:59 --> 01:08:00
			for the hardship and the long one.
		
01:08:00 --> 01:08:02
			But if you put your trust in Allah,
		
01:08:02 --> 01:08:04
			have tawakkul on Allah, and say, I'm going
		
01:08:04 --> 01:08:06
			to go through the hardship while everybody's in
		
01:08:06 --> 01:08:08
			haram relationships, not me.
		
01:08:08 --> 01:08:10
			You are going to protect yourself and believe
		
01:08:10 --> 01:08:11
			me, you're going to have more barakah in
		
01:08:11 --> 01:08:11
			your marriage.
		
01:08:12 --> 01:08:13
			Things are going to mean more to you
		
01:08:13 --> 01:08:15
			when you have that first intimacy with your
		
01:08:15 --> 01:08:15
			partner.
		
01:08:15 --> 01:08:17
			It's going to mean so much more than
		
01:08:17 --> 01:08:19
			a man or brother or sister who's gone
		
01:08:19 --> 01:08:20
			and sleeped around everywhere.
		
01:08:21 --> 01:08:23
			And now he's, he's literally gone off that.
		
01:08:24 --> 01:08:25
			Nothing means, even if he's the first night
		
01:08:25 --> 01:08:27
			with his wife or his husband.
		
01:08:27 --> 01:08:28
			It means nothing.
		
01:08:28 --> 01:08:29
			He's like, I've done this so many times,
		
01:08:29 --> 01:08:30
			there's no barakah in it.
		
01:08:30 --> 01:08:32
			So I would say, deal with the hardship
		
01:08:32 --> 01:08:33
			and in the long run, you will have
		
01:08:33 --> 01:08:34
			ease, inshaAllah.
		
01:08:34 --> 01:08:34
			That's what I would say.
		
01:08:35 --> 01:08:37
			And maybe we can end on that, inshaAllah.
		
01:08:37 --> 01:08:39
			Don't forget guys, Hijab's got a brilliant debate
		
01:08:39 --> 01:08:41
			coming on the 19th of September.
		
01:08:42 --> 01:08:42
			19th, yeah.
		
01:08:42 --> 01:08:43
			InshaAllah we'll get the last question on the
		
01:08:43 --> 01:08:44
			19th of September, guys.
		
01:08:44 --> 01:08:45
			We need all of you guys.
		
01:08:45 --> 01:08:46
			How many people watching roughly?
		
01:08:47 --> 01:08:48
			1,105.
		
01:08:48 --> 01:08:50
			1,105.
		
01:08:50 --> 01:08:51
			Every single one of you guys, matter guys,
		
01:08:52 --> 01:08:53
			in this dialogue, this discussion Hijab's going to
		
01:08:53 --> 01:08:54
			have on the 19th of September.
		
01:08:54 --> 01:08:55
			We're going to let you guys know the
		
01:08:55 --> 01:08:56
			dates, inshaAllah.
		
01:08:56 --> 01:08:57
			Probably the day before.
		
01:08:58 --> 01:08:59
			As soon as we find out.
		
01:08:59 --> 01:08:59
			You mean the times?
		
01:08:59 --> 01:09:00
			The time, the time.
		
01:09:00 --> 01:09:01
			We're going to let you know guys as
		
01:09:01 --> 01:09:03
			soon as when we find out.
		
01:09:03 --> 01:09:04
			But please, inshaAllah, support.
		
01:09:04 --> 01:09:05
			It's very important for you guys to support
		
01:09:05 --> 01:09:06
			because we work as a team.
		
01:09:07 --> 01:09:08
			I'm not talking about us today, I'm talking
		
01:09:08 --> 01:09:08
			about you guys.
		
01:09:09 --> 01:09:11
			You play a very, very important role in
		
01:09:11 --> 01:09:12
			the David Wood debate when he got smashed,
		
01:09:12 --> 01:09:13
			destroyed.
		
01:09:13 --> 01:09:15
			Yannick absolutely got humiliated.
		
01:09:15 --> 01:09:17
			The crowd played an amazing, amazing role in
		
01:09:17 --> 01:09:18
			that achievement.
		
01:09:18 --> 01:09:19
			So you guys play a role.
		
01:09:19 --> 01:09:22
			Please believe that we need your help in
		
01:09:22 --> 01:09:23
			these kind of dialogues and discussions.
		
01:09:23 --> 01:09:25
			In the comment section, wherever it is, sharing
		
01:09:25 --> 01:09:26
			the videos, inshaAllah.
		
01:09:26 --> 01:09:28
			So please, please make sure on the 19th
		
01:09:28 --> 01:09:29
			of September you guys tune in for that.
		
01:09:30 --> 01:09:31
			Ilah, what's the last question?
		
01:09:32 --> 01:09:33
			So I think this is to do with
		
01:09:33 --> 01:09:36
			like skepticism, Cartesian style.
		
01:09:36 --> 01:09:38
			I have this question that has kind of
		
01:09:38 --> 01:09:38
			been bugging me.
		
01:09:38 --> 01:09:40
			A person asked me, how do you know
		
01:09:40 --> 01:09:42
			that God isn't just lying and won't just
		
01:09:42 --> 01:09:44
			throw all of us in * fire?
		
01:09:45 --> 01:09:47
			Oh, that's quite an interesting skepticism, isn't it?
		
01:09:48 --> 01:09:49
			That's what you call what's what's up.
		
01:09:49 --> 01:09:51
			Well, look, I mean, the thing is there
		
01:09:51 --> 01:09:52
			are two kinds of impossibility, right?
		
01:09:52 --> 01:09:57
			In classic aqeedah books, you'll find that there
		
01:09:57 --> 01:10:02
			is what you call محال لنفسهم محال غيرهم
		
01:10:02 --> 01:10:05
			So something which is impossible due to itself
		
01:10:05 --> 01:10:07
			and something which is impossible due to something
		
01:10:07 --> 01:10:08
			else.
		
01:10:08 --> 01:10:11
			That's how the creedal people speak about it.
		
01:10:11 --> 01:10:13
			So they say, for example, something which is
		
01:10:13 --> 01:10:15
			impossible due to itself is a squared circle
		
01:10:15 --> 01:10:17
			that can't exist in the real world.
		
01:10:17 --> 01:10:17
			That's impossible.
		
01:10:18 --> 01:10:21
			And something which is impossible due to something
		
01:10:21 --> 01:10:24
			else which, for example, that Allah would lie.
		
01:10:25 --> 01:10:27
			Now, is it conceivable that Allah can do
		
01:10:27 --> 01:10:30
			something with his will that would be مخالفة
		
01:10:30 --> 01:10:34
			للحقيقة which would be the equivalent of lying
		
01:10:34 --> 01:10:37
			just if you consider it as the will
		
01:10:37 --> 01:10:38
			of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala?
		
01:10:38 --> 01:10:40
			From that perspective, you can consider it to
		
01:10:40 --> 01:10:42
			be a possibility, but what makes it an
		
01:10:42 --> 01:10:46
			impossibility is the fact that he's الحق he's
		
01:10:46 --> 01:10:48
			عدل he speaks the truth and so it's
		
01:10:48 --> 01:10:49
			against his attributes.
		
01:10:49 --> 01:10:52
			And as such, it becomes impossible due to
		
01:10:52 --> 01:10:52
			another.
		
01:10:53 --> 01:10:56
			So this تقسيم or this classification by the
		
01:10:56 --> 01:10:59
			Kalami and by Ibn Taymiyyah as well philosophers
		
01:10:59 --> 01:11:04
			and theologians and others of محال لنفسه محال
		
01:11:04 --> 01:11:07
			لغيره is, I think, a useful one because
		
01:11:07 --> 01:11:09
			it shows you that there can be impossibilities
		
01:11:09 --> 01:11:12
			which can exist due to something being contravening
		
01:11:12 --> 01:11:14
			to the attributes of God.
		
01:11:14 --> 01:11:18
			So, for example, lying contravenes the attributes many
		
01:11:18 --> 01:11:19
			attributes of Allah, actually.
		
01:11:20 --> 01:11:22
			Allah is الحق he's the truth so lying,
		
01:11:22 --> 01:11:24
			it goes against the truth the fact that
		
01:11:24 --> 01:11:28
			he's الحق and so it contravenes his wisdom
		
01:11:28 --> 01:11:31
			because wisdom is وضع شيء في مكانه صحيح
		
01:11:31 --> 01:11:34
			putting something in its rightful place so that
		
01:11:34 --> 01:11:36
			it contravenes that.
		
01:11:36 --> 01:11:38
			Now, I know it's a massive controversy but
		
01:11:38 --> 01:11:40
			I think this is the argument this is
		
01:11:40 --> 01:11:43
			the model or the answer that I'm convinced
		
01:11:43 --> 01:11:44
			with.
		
01:11:44 --> 01:11:49
			In Western philosophical tradition they do the classification
		
01:11:49 --> 01:11:52
			in a different way they call it logical
		
01:11:52 --> 01:11:56
			contradiction versus metaphysical contradiction and a logical contradiction
		
01:11:56 --> 01:11:58
			would be something like a squared circle or
		
01:11:58 --> 01:12:00
			a logical impossibility I should call it and
		
01:12:00 --> 01:12:02
			a metaphysical impossibility yes, would be something like
		
01:12:02 --> 01:12:04
			God lying because they would say that's a
		
01:12:04 --> 01:12:05
			metaphysical impossibility.
		
01:12:06 --> 01:12:07
			And not only that Allah SWT has made
		
01:12:07 --> 01:12:09
			it clear that he has negated injustice to
		
01:12:09 --> 01:12:10
			himself and Allah says in the Quran that
		
01:12:10 --> 01:12:12
			what will I get out of punishing you
		
01:12:12 --> 01:12:14
			so Allah has made it very clear these
		
01:12:14 --> 01:12:16
			are just waswasas, you know and it happened
		
01:12:16 --> 01:12:17
			to the best of people that walked the
		
01:12:17 --> 01:12:18
			earth the Sahaba came to the Prophet peace
		
01:12:18 --> 01:12:20
			be upon him and said, O Messenger of
		
01:12:20 --> 01:12:23
			Allah I have thoughts about things about Allah
		
01:12:23 --> 01:12:25
			and his Messenger that I would rather fall
		
01:12:25 --> 01:12:27
			from the sky and be eaten up by
		
01:12:27 --> 01:12:29
			birds so he was so horrified of the
		
01:12:29 --> 01:12:30
			waswasa or the thoughts that he was getting
		
01:12:30 --> 01:12:32
			about Allah and his Messenger and the Prophet
		
01:12:32 --> 01:12:34
			SAW said Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar
		
01:12:34 --> 01:12:36
			for the plot of Shaitan has been dropped
		
01:12:36 --> 01:12:38
			to a mere waswasa so the point is
		
01:12:38 --> 01:12:40
			what is that we are tidings that you
		
01:12:40 --> 01:12:42
			are doing something good that Shaitan is trying
		
01:12:42 --> 01:12:44
			to give you these weird waswasas or things
		
01:12:44 --> 01:12:46
			that don't exist you know, this is how
		
01:12:46 --> 01:12:47
			he tries to deceive you and that's why
		
01:12:47 --> 01:12:48
			he promised you the only thing he has
		
01:12:48 --> 01:12:50
			a power over you is what he calls
		
01:12:50 --> 01:12:52
			you to and you just don't believe in
		
01:12:52 --> 01:12:54
			it seek refuge in Allah and think of
		
01:12:54 --> 01:12:55
			Allah Allah is to a servant what you
		
01:12:55 --> 01:12:57
			think of him so think good of Allah
		
01:12:57 --> 01:12:58
			InshaAllah and just know that Allah SWT will
		
01:12:58 --> 01:13:01
			never ever throw his servants in * fire
		
01:13:01 --> 01:13:04
			SubhanAllah look, I'm a human being as a
		
01:13:04 --> 01:13:06
			human being would I ever do that to,
		
01:13:06 --> 01:13:09
			I mean like my children etc Allah loves
		
01:13:09 --> 01:13:12
			me more than I love my kids SubhanAllah,
		
01:13:12 --> 01:13:14
			yeah and there's a hadith when after one
		
01:13:14 --> 01:13:16
			of the battles one woman she lost her
		
01:13:16 --> 01:13:18
			child and she was running around and the
		
01:13:18 --> 01:13:20
			Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam pointed to her to
		
01:13:20 --> 01:13:21
			answer these doubts said, do you ever think
		
01:13:21 --> 01:13:23
			that a woman will throw her child in
		
01:13:23 --> 01:13:25
			* fire what's he pointing out to you
		
01:13:25 --> 01:13:27
			because she's lost her child yeah so she's
		
01:13:27 --> 01:13:30
			worried let alone if she's worried for that
		
01:13:30 --> 01:13:31
			if she was just sitting back and saying
		
01:13:31 --> 01:13:33
			oh I lost my child no problem she's
		
01:13:33 --> 01:13:34
			worried about her child so the question is
		
01:13:34 --> 01:13:36
			would she throw her child in * fire
		
01:13:36 --> 01:13:38
			said of course not said Allah is more
		
01:13:38 --> 01:13:39
			merciful to a servant than this woman to
		
01:13:39 --> 01:13:41
			her child so this is the lord that
		
01:13:41 --> 01:13:42
			we worship you know, it's not a lord
		
01:13:42 --> 01:13:44
			that wants to throw people in * fire
		
01:13:44 --> 01:13:46
			and I think we will end on that
		
01:13:46 --> 01:13:48
			yeah thank you guys for coming on this
		
01:13:48 --> 01:13:50
			if you guys think it's a good idea
		
01:13:50 --> 01:13:52
			put it in the comment section the fact
		
01:13:52 --> 01:13:53
			that we do this maybe from time to
		
01:13:53 --> 01:13:56
			time because it's good for us to actually
		
01:13:56 --> 01:13:58
			engage with some of your questions we don't
		
01:13:58 --> 01:13:59
			do it maybe as much as we should
		
01:13:59 --> 01:14:02
			yeah but yeah that's now Assalamualaikum Wa Rahmatullah
		
01:14:02 --> 01:14:05
			Wa Barakatuh bye bye guys to all the
		
01:14:05 --> 01:14:06
			people that didn't believe in
