The speakers discuss the importance of the verse "so stay in your homes and don't come out like the Japanese" in relation to the mother of the Aubreys. They also talk about the negative impact of women on society, citing examples such as the way a woman talks to her money to avoid a "has been free." The speakers suggest that women should be rewarded for their natural advantages and empowered to make money, while also educating themselves and becoming gainers through Islam.

00:00:04 --> 00:00:04
			Okay,
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:07
			so
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:12
			that's gonna put on separate. So it does say three plus five is equal
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			to this verse
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:21
			says, stay in your homes and don't come out like, you know, the Japanese.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:28
			Two points of interest is referred to the mothers of the minima. So there's a discussion among the,
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:48
			among the jurists, whether it applies to all of the women, we know even if that first is to say that
is to apply for the woman, there will be so many exceptions, which would render the most basically,
you will say that it's a common thing. Number two is more important, which is not many one will give
you some information here.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:55
			Yes, I'm going to give you some information, which is not available in any Quranic translation, the
problem has come
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:03
			out, and this all ties in, together. So one of the ones saying like, you know, you have half sign
offs, and
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:11
			so the bus comes in two different formats, this will cause nothing, we will take one and what
kidnapper guilty.
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:22
			Okay, so what does this what's the second woman? What can enough beauty goodness means and have
tranquility, from the Word
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			of God with?
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:36
			tranquility, relaxation. So when you put both things together, it means stay when you're staying in
your homes, do so with relaxation.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:50
			See, do so relaxation. So the profit is not it's not a prison. And this is the thing is when you
take this person you make a mess out of it. It will make it seem like I was in a prison or a border
mentioned.
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:56
			The verse in the corner. way also says what kidnap?
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			Which means to say?
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			And this is by the way, the opinion?
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:16
			No, I don't think
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:18
			any man
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:32
			No, no, no, you can't do that. Because the verses clear. It comes in two different cannot. And if
you put them together as
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:42
			point to this is something else, there is an incentive a real incentive from the Islamic
perspective, what kind of data?
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			He says, basically,
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:59
			his wife, and she asked outcomes, it's the case that men get more rewards than women for more
opportunities for awards because they can go to get, they can do this, they can do generous praise.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:07
			They get more projects to do. So this this is that. He said, so I set up the same thing.
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:12
			As a home visit, looking after the children and doing their thing.
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:24
			They should get the same boat as that. Now, if you really think about it, when going to do the
things that the bromances said, No, so the man won't get that reward.
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:29
			However the woman is doing so you could say that from a design perspective.
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:44
			A woman is entitled to a lot of rewards from staying in the house to deal with the children and to
help the children with the children. I don't see much difference by the way. Actually, I personally
believe what we as a mother should be seeing the work.
		
00:03:45 --> 00:04:11
			Working as a mother, and looking at upgrading children is in many ways more honorable than many of
the professionals because it combines different talents. You combine your teacher, you know you will
you are a support worker, you there's so many things that you have to be good at psychology, a lot
of things that favor a woman's natural advantages, when we can do multitasking, that they can look
up to the children and do things at the same time.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:20
			That from that perspective, this is one of the differentiation points of demarcation between
feminism and
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:28
			the some it does encourage women to to be natural, and stuff like that and help this kind of thing.
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:52
			But it doesn't say that we should be trapped in the house. So that's the balance that we should have
when doing the house that should make a comfortable environment for themselves. As the Quran says,
relax at home you shouldn't be a prisoner. The contrary is you can't use that verse to say the thing
in prison. The contrary is true. And one last thing I just want to mention about another point of
demarcation between feminism. I know there are Marxist feminists I understand.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:59
			The majority feminists self identify as liberal feminists, which means that there is a
presupposition a capitalistic
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:41
			framework, the capitalistic framework is a framework economics, class and governance, which is based
on basically competition. So it follows perfectly. If you're having that presupposition for a woman,
in order for her to, to sort of compete with men or to be on equal grounds, to go out and compete
with him in the industry, a lot has a different criteria for success. This is their criteria. So
Western criteria, the idea that you should be making money in order to be successful, the American
dream, which end up in Denmark in 1929 34, for the Wall Street crash happened in the Great
Depression happened over the 30s end up being the nightmare because of greed and capitalism. And it
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:59
			continues to be the anomaly today, with the World Health Organization and Forbes magazine come up
together and concluded that Westerners according to their studies are the most depressed. In fact,
they dig, they counted the 20 most depressed countries, and 90 of them who I might remember from my
memory, were Western countries, only.
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			One of them
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:20
			was Africa, but the majority of the countries and so capitalism hasn't worked for them. It's not.
It's not the pursuit of happiness, you don't get happiness from capitalism is a failed system from
that perspective. Yeah. So if you put that as a presupposition to feminism, and then presuppose that
then a woman should
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:43
			to make money, so she compete with the masses to break the patriarchy. In fact, what you're doing is
you're setting up for depression, let her have the right to tell her husband to go outside, make the
money for her, come back, give her the money. Now, if there's an agreement between those two people,
that she should be working something he can be working, so she isn't talking to her money, he's
entitled to his money to give her money as well.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:07:20
			Which is the right by the way, that's a positively discriminating right for women and for men, it is
that it positively discriminates against women, and against men in this regard, but no one, if it
was the other way around, believe me, there would be controversy as your religion tells a woman to
go out and be slave workers, believe me, that would be the criticism. But the opposite is true. We
have as men, we have to go out and make the money. And a woman if she's working, she gets to keep
all that she has. That's the reality. So the point I wanted to make is if you put because you have
to understand what you're dealing with, you're dealing with a Western construct, which has a
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:40
			presupposition, capitalism, and basically incentivize women to go out to the marketplace. So for
capitalistic game, because it helps the capitalist economy, the capitalist elites, to get tax money.
And to get this better, you're dealing with that you realize, okay, a lot of set different standards
was the moment in chapter 58 of the unwashed masses, they'll find them within a
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:47
			project. That was pinata raises, the ones who've been given the knowledge from You are the ones who
will
		
00:07:48 --> 00:08:29
			inform you and those who have been given knowledge in degrees. So the two criteria for success is
different from a capitalistic criteria. If a woman goes to the top Institute of big bank, yeah, she
becomes the leader of the bank, what effect will that have in society, believing the maximum, she
can have an effect on that internal institution, she will not be able to have an effect on society.
That's the problem. So in other words, Islam, equipping women with something which is more powerful
than money, which is knowledge, this knowledge, if it's, if it's absorbed by women, and disseminated
to the masses, will change society in a stronger and bigger way than if she had money. I will say
		
00:08:29 --> 00:09:11
			this shouldn't be a balance. But what I am saying is that the criteria that they've set is a failed
criteria. A woman, a successful woman in Islam, is a spiritual woman, and a knowledgeable woman. And
Islam is a religion who has had more female scholars than any other world religion, I say go, I say
Islam is a religion, we should have more female scholars, that more Hadith scholars than even the
scholars of enlightenment and renascence, I say, therefore, let the Muslim woman go back to the
thing that was giving them success. Let them be educated, let them educate themselves, let them
become scholars, and then they will be telling them what to do because they will have to listen to
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:21
			them that will regard a woman scholar who has the knowledge that a man has to have has the right to
give the man that knowledge. But it's not the case that a woman capitalist can tell them what to do.
No,
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:49
			you know, we're seeing it. Hillary Clinton was elected. They're not really doing too, we have to
understand the patriarchy will not be broken with a capitalistic strategy. So the Islamic strategy,
I think is stronger for for these things. For my personal perspective, I think that if this is if
it's implemented, not only will rights be given to them, but they'll be able to elevate themselves
higher than the position of men. They can do that they have the opportunity that they should take
the opportunity to jump
