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
