			shaytani r rajim Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa salatu salam ala
Sayidina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi Germain, my beloved brothers and sisters in Islam a cinema
alikum warahmatu Allahi wa barakato
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17
			are y'all doing?
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			look very tired.
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:50
			long week, it was a short week actually wasn't a long weekend. Well, hamdulillah. And finally, how
quickly is the force going? Before we look at it? It's again, as they say, we'll be better off with
a last minute Allah grant the next half to be better. And this first half. I mean, we continue with
our discussion on the heroes of Islam and tonight's hero, tonight's panel, ah, what can we say and
we'll never do justice to this great Imam. In the few minutes that we have. Just to give you a
prelude to this Imam.
		
00:00:51 --> 00:01:28
			You know, when young men, boys and I think still men, young men still do this, they have this game
that they play, who is the strongest superhero? Who would win if Superman and the Hulk had
armwrestling match? Who would win? Right? And you have your two camps and this one will say this
one, and then that one would say that one would win. And the students of knowledge have a similar
game? They would say, if we could bring a scholar back from the past, to fix our problems today, who
would we bring? And usually in this game, and the times I've had this discussion, it comes down to
two personalities, the one being among Buhari, and the second being the personality we're going to
		
00:01:28 --> 00:02:09
			speak about tonight. And if you had to push me, I would say the personality that we speak about
tonight, he would be the most important scholar I would personally bring back to our day and age. He
is an Imam, that if we had to write the best scholars of all time, he would be one of the
frontrunners to take number one spot. Imam Shafi says about him that in terms of everyone else
compared to him, I like small children, we take from him, and he's the mom. In fact, when you
picture this, Mr. I want you to picture this smiling, white haired grandfather, who's brilliant if
you had to describe him in one word genius is the only way to describe him who saw things that no
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:48
			one else saw who revolutionized an entire science, some people into this knowledge and they
contribute to it. But some people are so great that they change the course of history. They change
the course of knowledge that after them, knowledge was never the same. And you all know this, this
man, Norma and even terbit. Right, you all know him, or better known as Abu hanifa. Right, Abu
hanifa. He didn't have a daughter called hanifa. This is a cornea. But his real name is not a man,
even if they have it. And what can we say more about him. As the scholars have mentioned, even
Mubarak, who was one of our heroes before, in the last week, we spoke about him. They say that he is
		
00:02:48 --> 00:03:28
			the most knowledgeable person in terms of fiction, we have never seen a man like Abu hanifa. This,
his peers would say there was no person more knowledgeable and more brilliant than this man, that he
saw things that none of us saw. And he opened our eyes and guided the way I've done live and that
would a great scholar. He says it is compulsory on every single Muslim in the Sala to thank Allah
for Abu hanifa because he has benefited every single Muslim after him. It's upon Allah, whether you
are a Hanafi or not, or the other, either him or both and follow his methodology. And we would not
be the Muslims as we are today if Allah had not given us this man. So let us talk a little bit about
		
00:03:28 --> 00:04:07
			his backstory and what I love about Abu hanifa you'd find that the scholars of the of the past, they
had a mold of how they became great scholars. They were taught and they memorized a lot of stuff as
young kids, and they sat under the feet of great scholars for 2030 years, and they traveled the
world. And then they learned a lot of things. And then when they were 50 or so they started giving
fatawa and wrote books on hamdulillah. Rama Abu hanifa doesn't follow this thing. He's got a story
on his own. What do we know about him number one, he was a Persian wasn't an Arab was not an Arab.
His grandfather was a revert to Islam, meaning the basics he didn't even know not Abu hanifa but his
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:49
			grandfather and his parents were basically first generation Muslims learning from scratch. They were
a wealthy family, a family of textile merchants, silk traders, they used to sell socks. So you know
the Persians and the carpets and the fabrics. And when Persia into the Muslim domain, his family
embraced Islam, and they continued the family business and they were well to do family and they
lived in Iraq. They lived in Iraq in Kufa, and he lived in a time when Islam was going through a bit
of confusion, both politically the Romanians had turned the caliphate into a dynasty and there was a
lot of friction. We saw for the first time the emergence of six to highridge Martin Zilla we found
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:59
			the new six forming we found fabricated Heidi flying around we found new people into the into the
into the into the Muslim oma not as Muslims from different parts.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:41
			To the world, the Hindus and the Jews and the Christians. And with that came new ideologies and
philosophies that challenged Islam, the good old days were gone. Basically, the good old days of the
Sahaba was finished, and a new age was beginning to dawn. And he wasn't sure which way this oma was
going to go. He was born and he lived in such a time of confusion, a time of uncertainty. And he
didn't grow up spending his youth in the massage it learning to be a scholar. He was a merchant, and
he bought and sold silk. And he was a very honest, very, very honest merchant. He had principles and
he had adapted and he was a layman basic Muslim. He didn't know much more than the basic Muslim of
		
00:05:41 --> 00:06:21
			the time. And then he had a chance encounter when he was about 20 years old. He bumped into one of
the great scholars of the time. He mama shabby, and I must tell you about my shabby shabby was of
the Tabby a meaning a student of the Sahaba. And he studied under 500 companions. So he went all
around the oma trying to find Sahaba to learn from them. Abdullah, even Omer to Sahabi, the son of
Satan, Omar said, I would hear, shall I be speaking about a battle that I was in and I would learn
something new from him, because he spoke to other companions, and few details of the Lebanon War
didn't know about a shabby mentioned it. This man was a great scholar in his time. In fact, the
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:57
			halifa was so impressed with him, Abdullah Abdullah bin Abdul Malik even Marwan we remember him we
spoke about him of the molecule Marwan does a great Caliph. He sent shabby as his ambassador to the
Roman Emperor. And the Roman emperor was so impressed so shabby. He could try to convince him stay
in Rome, I'll give you a good salary be my advisor, shall be said no. And eventually he went back to
the halifa. But he told me, he told me I want you to give a later person to the halifa and Shabbat
gives the letters of the Holy Family for each, and it tells the Holy Father Malik, and we said, the
overheads, they were very quick to, to remove your head, right? They found your head as a as
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:13
			something which was easily to be removed. All right. So the halifa tell shabby. Do you know what
this letter is saying? This letter is saying that the Roman Emperor is telling me, I surprised that
the Arabs have chosen me as the halifa when they have a man like you in the midst.
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:34
			You should you are better than me. So the Imam he says, look, yeah, I mean, he only says that
because he never ever met you. But that's why he says that he never made you. So that your mom says
no, he really what he really wants to do. He's He's envious that I have an asset like you. So he
would rather me kill you than him not have you. But I won't do that. So this is him. I'm shabby.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:53
			Abu hanifa bumps into him. I'm shabby one day, he's on the way to the market. And even shabby, says,
young boy, look at the time you should be in class. You shouldn't have knowledge, authority, blood,
you shouldn't be walking around this time of day. And Abu hanifa says, you know, I'm not a student
of knowledge. I'm just a merchant.
		
00:07:54 --> 00:08:32
			So human shabby, says, I see intelligence in you. And if you were to study, Dean, I'm sure there'll
be good news from you. He just said those words. And it piqued the interest of Abu hanifa. So he
thought, Okay, let me give it a try. And this is a lesson for us that we encourage people with good
words, one good word can change somebody's life. Like food alias today, one good word can change
somebody's life. But Abu hanifa still and we can identify with us how many of us in our teenage
years or in our 20s even older than that? We don't we're not sure we we really fit in? You know,
where do I fit in any wind from different circles of learning from different massage different
		
00:08:32 --> 00:09:08
			scholars, learning from this one. And from that one, seeing what suits me we this witness my tenants
fit in? He began sitting with those of philosophy and discussing theology about ways Allah and how
does Allah look and what was before Allah and debated with the atheists. And he said that this is
back and forth debates, all mental gymnastics, he doesn't find it bringing him closer to Allah. He
doesn't find any taqwa in this even though he was proficient at that. He realized that when it comes
to logic, when he's able to do something in his brain, no one could defeat him that he challenged
atheists and he could prove them wrong. The base of the base when it came to logic, he was number
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:46
			one. But he felt I don't find any taqwa in this. I'm not getting closer to Allah. The more I speak
about Allah and debate about Allah, it seems as if though, that old man who has the Athenian Allah
who never discussed Allah, he's closer to Allah than me. So he lived this discussion. For example,
He said, that when it comes to the understanding of Kabbalah and other free will and destiny, that
this is like a lock, and the key is lost. Our minds will never comprehend that and all we do is
speculation. It could be this it could be that without any firm answers, so he wasn't pleased with
this line of discussion, when he said, Well, the scholars of language and poetry and grammar, and he
		
00:09:46 --> 00:10:00
			found some good in it, but this didn't suit him when he went to sit with the scholars of Hadith. And
you know, Subhana Allah Hadith requires a special kind of temperament to memorize copious amounts of
information. There's no shortcuts, you can be the smart
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:22
			This man in the world, but you still gonna have to sit there for hours and hours to memorize it.
There is no shortcut in memorization. And this didn't suit his temperament. And it's no shame in
saying that memorizing Hadith is not for me. Abu hanifa was not shy to say this is not for me. This
doesn't suit my ability. And each of us have different gifts and ability. He didn't suit him. And
then he passed by
		
00:10:23 --> 00:11:03
			the jelsa, the the claws of a great scholar, Hamad bin Sulaiman, and a lady came to Abu hanifa and
said, and she asked him a question about Pollock, simple question. And he said, I don't know the
answer. I'm not a scholar. And then she went to hammered. So he said, I want to hear the answer for
myself. And he took his shoes off. And he sat on that mat, and he listened to hammer the scholar
giving an answer. And in Abu hanifa, would sit on that mat for 18 years, he would sit in the gels of
hammered for the next 18 years. And he said, you know, at first I was in the back row, because I was
new. Maybe they were school boys where they first, but later on as the doors have opened up to him,
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:19
			and his mind started to explode. And he found that this is where he's meant to be that finding
reason and logic and reading a hadith and looking at the inner meanings. This appealed to him.
Hammad also noticed that and he began to sit right next to on the right hand side of the screen,
Imam
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:54
			Abu hanifa says and he tells us from his own account, something which is a bit embarrassed about, he
says that after about 10 years of sitting with Hammad, I felt Okay, I'm now in the mood to have my
own clause, I would like to sit somewhere else and start my own class and teach as well. And he said
at the same time, wasn't long after that hammered said I have to go to for two months on a journey
relative of mine, he passed away, and I want you to run my class. So it's a good opportunity I was
looking for. And he said they and for two months, he got questions, and he gave answers. And Matt
came back. And he said, Yeah, sure. I wrote down all the questions I got I had 60 questions. I
		
00:11:54 --> 00:12:36
			wasn't sure about look at the answers. And Hammad looked at them and said, 40 of them, I agree, and
20 of them, I don't agree. And then Abu hanifa said, I realized I still have a lot to learn. And he
said another 10 years with hammer was hammered. hammered is the student of Ibrahim na, who was the
student of alicona. So hamata teacher, Ibrahim Ibrahim was a student of a man called al Kama, who
was the slave of Abdullah and Sahabi had a slave and taught him the slave was outcome. Those are
hobbies that I buy you just so I can teach you everything I know, you like my hard drive, I'm gonna
fill you up with knowledge and you go teach somebody else. So between Abu hanifa and the Sahabi was
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:58
			just three, three scholars and Abu hanifa made a few companions in his lifetime. And he standard
studied under other great scholars amongst them Jaffa sodic amongst them at all, even Abby raba,
another great scholar, we don't have time to go into him, but he was the Mufti of Makkah. He was the
Imam of the Haram. And Abu hanifa studied under him for a few years as well.
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:14
			So I went hunting for him Allah now he's learned a lot. And he finds himself in the middle of a huge
debate between the scholars. And this goes back to the time Sahaba they were two camps. They were no
mother. And the mother, he really if you want to know, why do we have format tabs? Where does this
come from?
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:56
			They were two strands of thinking amongst the Sahaba. Amongst the companions, they were those were
called the Hades or the traditionalists, or the literary lists on the one hand, and you had those
who Allah Rai those have logic and opinion that Hadees basically they said, We shouldn't think deep
too much about things we follow the book and the Quran and the sooner to the tea. Rasulullah Sultan
said gold and silk is haram for the man. And it's haram for a man and that's it. There's no other
meaning behind that. Everything else is halal except these two, black and white finished. We don't
ask what if and how. And we and when we submit to the text, literally, the lie? They said no, they
		
00:13:56 --> 00:14:40
			should be greater meaning behind the Hadith. Why? Why is it a haram for a man to whistle? Why is it
haram for him to a gold? Can we not extract rules and apply this to other things? So which camp Do
you think Abu hanifa fell into the lie those of logic, those who try to understand the meaning
behind things and apply principles. And also this was also a case of geography, the Hadith when
Medina with a hadith was common, we know new ideas were coming in way they were dealing with people
that was sticked on the sooner whereas he was living in Kufa. It was like, like the Las Vegas of
that time. It was the high below the ideas and it was a melting pot of ideas and new questions came
		
00:14:40 --> 00:15:00
			up that the that the scholars could no longer keep up with people are strange and funny questions.
The scholars never heard of these things before they go through the code and they can't find an
answer. And they will have these they didn't know what the how to test it. So Abu hanifa found there
must be a way for us to fix this problem. There must be a way for us to draw up a system of
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:34
			Solving problems and dealing with big data in, and this is what he gave to the world. This is how a
meth lab started. So after Hammad passed away, he became the principal of that class. And not long
after that, because of his skill in teaching, and his ability to think. And he's a way of empowering
the students. The other classes around Kufa became less and his class became the biggest. And he had
a way, instead of teaching, he would say, my students raise this question. You guys all know the
Hadith, you're all happy the Quran? What do you think? And they would together unanimously come have
an opinion.
		
00:15:36 --> 00:16:02
			And if him and his students agreed on an answer, they would say, let's write this down. And he would
encourage them, what if this would happen? Or what if that would happen? Why do you think this is
how long we had he didn't speak like this, that he knew right? He was encouraging him to think about
new ways of understanding the deen and he came up with a brilliant idea called chaos. analogy,
analogy. What do we mean and I give you that example again.
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:23
			The Hadith that says the Bible says two things haram for our males meaning gold and silk and is
halal for our women and a businesswoman gives us a Heidi from this Heidi's we can know that it's
haram for women, a woman to we have is how do you come up with an answer like that from the Saudis?
Where did you pull that information from? Who can explain why
		
00:16:24 --> 00:17:05
			why is golden silk haram for for us? Why Why do we think what about it makes it hard on it? It will
say we don't care that the solution is haram. haram finished? Don't ask why. Just don't have a
golden silk. Right? That's the answer for them. Why is it No, there must be a reason behind this.
Why do you think the reason is, is because expensive. extravagance it was extravagance, haram for
the ladies as well. Is it the color? If it's color than anything that looks like gold is haram? If
it's extravagance, then Platinum is even more harm? No, it's because gold and silver is something
specific to women. Therefore, something specific to a man is haram for a woman as well. You
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:43
			understand this is called chaos. This is caused using analogy, finding the reason behind it and
applying now you have a principle and a framework. And you can work from this and solve not one
question, but you can solve countless questions. Abu hanifa came up with this idea. And he scholars
and his students together, they started speculating about questions and asking questions before
people came to ask them. And they wrote it down. And this is the beginning of a method. And I said
between him and his students, between him and his students. They answered hundreds of 1000s of
questions. At the same time, well, hanifa he was always a wealthy man. He sticks how business
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:55
			continued and managers running his business. And he would use his money to finance his students and
his madrasa. So students that we can't sit your whole day learning massage, he said, Don't worry, I
will pay for you to stay here.
		
00:17:56 --> 00:18:19
			He loved the students so much. And they mentioned about his piety and generosity and his taqwa.
Whenever he started a class, he comes into his class, he looks at his students, he smiles at them,
sometimes with a tear in his eye. And he says you guys are the joy of my heart and the relief of my
sorrow. This is a way I'm the happiest for 40 years. He's teaching his students and this is how he
begins his class.
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:24
			That's why students love being in his in his company.
		
00:18:25 --> 00:19:09
			But the real brilliance about this Imam isn't just that he was smart. They were many smart allameh
and they they contributed to the deen and it stopped the but there was a level of tabula from Allah
subhanho wa Taala. His knowledge grew and he Stockwell grew accordingly. He became a wily, when he
wasn't teaching, he was busy with a biter and sincerity. And, and his students would say, we never
met a man of greater piety and taqwa when he couldn't answer a question, he felt so behind Allah,
Allah is forbidding me from understanding this question because of a sin I have done, and he would
make it up, makes Allah making ecfr because he felt this was a sin that I have done. Allah subhanho
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:48
			wa Taala is not giving me the answer. He was so stick about money being halaal. So he's managing
sold, sold, sold his clothes on his behalf. And he told his manager one day that the shipment of
silk is a defect, please inform my customers that there is a defect, and the manager sold the silk
and he forgot to tell the customers that there was a defect. So he insisted all the money. You made
all the sales for the day, give it in charity, we can't take a cent of it. He made sure everything
to earn was holiday was holiday. And he didn't want to be near. He didn't want to be near positions
of power and the government because he felt this corrupted you that he and many of the governors
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:59
			wanted him to be appointed as a judge or as a minister in the in the in the Treasury and he refused
and sometimes he got in trouble with this. He was also criticized by the other scholars
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:41
			Traditional scholars right because he's coming with something new. What macdaddy Dotty deviant? Is
this coming up with new ideas? And speaking of strange things that we never heard about speaking
about how do you make solar when you're flying? When will this ever happen now? He spoke about that
in his time. post a photo if you flying this is how you should make Sala and they would say that he
doesn't take Hadeeth. Now we must understand. After him the hygiene sciences became more precise,
and it proved after he had passed away some of these rulings went against Heidi. So Luke's barnala
this Imam puts his logic ahead of Hadeeth. No, in his time, the heady sciences, there was no Bahati
		
00:20:41 --> 00:21:23
			it, there was no Hamlet, there were no books of Hadith, the Hadith was spread out and jumbled up and
they were full of false narrations. He didn't know what he could select as being correct or false.
Therefore, he said, his principle was we focus on the Quran first, when we need a question, we look
at the Quran for an answer, then we only use Hadith which we are sure are correct. And we apply
principles based on what we know to be true. It is hardy that sounds a bit odd. Let's leave that and
focus on what our our knowledge seems to be through and apply the Quran and the Sunnah to that. And
he said, if you find out later that this hadith which I rejected is correct, when through my opinion
		
00:21:23 --> 00:22:06
			away, and that Hadith is my method. She says to the students, I don't know this hadith is correct or
not. So I'm putting it aside. But if you find out this hadith is correct, then that is my mother. So
he for us today It might sound simple, but it wasn't that known that he put down the framework. We
begin with the Quran, when the authentic hadith, when Hadith which we are not so sure, but does not
conflict with the Quran, then the word so he's putting in Priority what comes first, then the email
the factors of the Sahaba we take them before our own fatawa after that, we use logic and reasoning
as Allah. It makes sense. The laws in the Quran and the Sunnah are the because of reason and logic.
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:46
			Allah did not just legislate for fun. There's a reason behind it for your own benefit. And that's
what he tried to understand and capture. Someone tells us today I only want to accept what makes
sense to me Alhamdulillah if you're Abu hanifa then yes, but if your mind is not sound, and a test
of if your mind is sound or not you in a in a shop and the sister oxen free hijab and another lady
walks in the half year she leaves nothing to the imagination, and which of the two would stand out
more for you? If the one head to toe hijab is more odd for you, they know your mind is not sound and
our minds have been corrupted. So we don't need so we don't base our our acceptance of Islam on
		
00:22:46 --> 00:23:25
			whether it makes sense to us or not. Maybe when you get to the level of image to hit the level of a
Mufti and you've understood the deen of Allah has opened this up for you then okay, but like Abu
hanifa he submitted to the Quran and the Sunnah. And when there was a gap. This is we applied his
reasoning and his logic and how much of his evidences were proven to be true when the Hadith became
solid and confirmed. Amongst the other principles he laid down so chaos was his great, one of the
great gifts he gave to the oma all the other muda he will now use class. All of them will say this
makes sense for this Imam said he would also have examples he would have something called al. We
		
00:23:25 --> 00:24:01
			should try our best to make it easy for the oma find the rulings find a legal loophole, not a haram
loophole, a legal loophole to make things easy because this Deen is to make things easy. For
example, a man comes and says, Yeah, I said, well, law here, I'm going to have * with my
wife in the day in Ramadan, what should I do? Break my vow and have * with her in Ramadan?
What do you do? The mouse is no problem. You and your wife go on a holiday travel somewhere you are
travelers, you don't have to fast and do what you need to do. Have you found a legal loophole to a
problem? This is how he would solve and answer these questions. This is how he would look to make
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:41
			things easy. And he understood things better than anybody else in his time. And his students learned
from him. And they benefited from him. And they wrote down his rulings and this is how I madhab
started and he encouraged his students. If later on you find I was wrong thing change it Don't
follow me. He asked him he didn't see students as kids. He looked at them as peers as colleagues.
Your opinion is just as great as mine. Even though he's the genius until today, probably the
smartest man in Abu hanifa Rahim Allah, later on his motherhood spread. And today, nearly half of
the Muslims on this earth ascribed to the Hanafi madhhab. It's the biggest matter It has always been
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:59
			the biggest method. It is the main hub of the was the main hub of the Ottoman Empire. It was the
official hub of many, many systems. And on his personal life, the personal front of the Imam. He was
he had one son, how he would spend his day is he would wake up with that you'd make that you then
come to the masjid
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:29
			fudger stay in emergencies basically until I start teaching class after class, answering questions,
issuing fatawa then off the asset he would spend time with his family look to his business and his
revenues not for himself, but for for his school. And then he would be in the masjid and then in the
evenings off to Asia was his time either a bother and thinking also for the sisters, he only had one
wife and encourage the halifa you can't do justice only take one wife, or the sisters and ohana fee
now after this, right? Well, hamdulillah
		
00:25:31 --> 00:26:10
			so this Imam This is how he spent his life. And, and, and his students would say they never met a
man of greater taqwa. And as I said, scholars great scholars came in brilliant men came, but they
didn't achieve that level of greatness, like Abu hanifa. Why? Because it's not just knowledge. It's
acceptance from Allah, it's sincerity. That's why it's called Abu hanifa. He didn't have a daughter
called hanifa. hanifa means the one who is sincere and upright and direct. He got that cornea for
his purity, and he's any sincerity and his love for the deen when people insulted him and he got a
lot of insults and criticism. He never responded in an ugly way. He said, I'm just a man. And Allah
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:47
			has this is what makes sense to me. And this is my evidence if I'm wrong, they make do out for me,
and you come with something better. This is how he lived his life. How did he pass away as we said,
he was always on the wrong side of the low split variable. He didn't speak out against the
government, but he disliked the government tremendously. The government was not just in his time, he
lived through the good days of Omar Abdulaziz. But besides for him, the governance of his time will
corrupt and they tried to corrupt him as well, because he had some some mature following. They gave
him gifts and he refused to accept any gift from any leader. He was imprisoned and lashed for 30
		
00:26:47 --> 00:27:29
			days every day, so much so that he had to leave Iraq and spend a number of years in Makkah, when the
Omega dynasty was overthrown because of the corruption and he returned to Iraq, only to find the new
regime as bad as the old one. And Abu Jafar almanzora halifa. Who was the halifa before Haruna.
Rashid, who would be a much better halifa insisted Abu hanifa becomes his chief justice. He said you
are the smartest man in the kingdom. I want you to be the Supreme Court Judge, the overall legal
thinker of the oma an empire from Spain to China, you should be its chief legislator. I won't even
say Nikon be that I am not fit for the job. shabu Jaffa said You're a liar. So is it exactly. I
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:32
			mean, Elia can never be the supreme judge.
		
00:27:33 --> 00:28:15
			So, this he was a bit too smart for the hollyford liking. So he imprisoned him and the great Imam at
the age of 70, died in prison. He felt that he was poisoned. And he performed Salah those first few
days while he felt he was dying consistently in salah and I accepted him and he passed away in sada
and this is how, what Abu hanifa gave to the oma, as I see that great quote from a young chef a
after him, the other modality would come and they would say, we are just children, compared to Abu
hanifa was like the grandfather of the great Imam. As I said, I'm not happy, but it's my personal
choice of all these heroes. If I could bring one of them back as a scholar. I'll bring Abu hanifa
		
00:28:16 --> 00:28:27
			back tomorrow inshallah we speak about the man who's the opposite. If he had the heroes, Abu hanifa,
they would have the Hadith would have this man as the heart as the hero
		
00:28:28 --> 00:29:01
			that he would bring the Hadith sciences correct. And his book in its time. The scholars like him,
Shafi said there is nothing more accurate and correct than the book of this man, other than the
Quran, when Haruna Rashid read his book, The halifa said, give me permission to hang your pages of
the book on the Kaaba, and I'll force everyone to follow your method. When we're talking about the
Imam of Medina, Mr. Maliki bananas. So we'll talk about the mathematic tomorrow shall the great
teacher of even Sheffield Pamela, as well quiz
