			Probably Shashi, suddenly were silly. Emily looked at me listening of holy Allah who was epic there
and the multi Villa ILAHA, Illa. Allah how much I love it. I live in Amman where I'm you know,
slightly hot water, wasabi, hockey, whatever. So, I'm in Europe. And I mean,
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:16
			it's been a long time since I've been back. So it's good to be back. Even though I'm here for a very
brief time. I'd like to start by making dua for all of you that Allah keeps your family safe, and
protect you and preserve your iman. And I asked you to do the same for myself and my family.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:58
			Today's hotbar I'll start by a disclaimer, is a complicated subject. And the reason I think, I chose
this topic, even though in the less than half hour that I want to speak with you, there's no way I
can do any justice to this topic. And there will be many things that should be discussed that are
critical, that will be left untouched. If I want to give you a visual, if you're building a
building, it has to have multiple pillars before you put the second floor, right, the foundation has
to be there, the pillars have to be there. Maybe we'll put one or two pillars in place, not enough
to build on top right? So then the question is, why even touch such a topic. And if it's not going
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:37
			to be complete in such a short amount of time. The reason for that is equally important. And that is
that and this is my own observation. You don't have to agree in whatever time I've spent in my life
trying to understand the book of Allah, and understand the outcome of Allah and the wisdom of the
Quran, whatever I can grasp of it. One of the things that I've noticed, in conversations with
Muslims around the world, and even here is that there are sometimes subjects that are actually
complicated, and they have multiple components. But the Muslims, when they talk about it, imagine
this, the building needs 10 pillars, the Muslims, generally they know about one of those pillars,
		
00:03:37 --> 00:04:15
			and they talk about it as if that is the entire subject. And they simplify it and they think that's
all look, Allah said this and this IR that's what it means. And that their entire view of what does
Islam say about the subject is based on this popular thing that they've heard in one place, not
looking at all the other pieces of the picture, right? And then what happens with some other
extremes is well, you know, one side of it sounds extreme. So the other some other group takes some
other pillar and says no, you're wrong. What about this, they hold to another piece, and they say
this is the entire picture. And both of these are actually pretty incorrect. We have to take Allah's
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:49
			book not torn, torn into pieces. And one piece here and one piece there. If I took we knew that we
were very lucky. Tell me what formula. Do you believe in some parts of the book and you deny other
parts of the book? This is something that the people before us did. We can't be doing that right. So
now let me get more specific about what I'm talking about to you today. There's a very famous iron
sorbitol, NIDA and there are many other ayat like it, I recited the Arabic to you and many of you
heard it those of you understand the Arabic language heard it in the beginning and may have been
even perturbed. What's he going to talk about today? What is Is he really going to talk about that
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:59
			idea? And the ISS those of you who believe, don't take it I'll do a bad translation first. Those of
you who claim to believe do not take Jews and Christians as friends. They are friends.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:36
			to each other, okay? And then whoever befriends them among you, then though Allah does not guide the
wrongdoing people. So the ayah clearly says we shouldn't be friends with Jews and Christians. And
that's and this is sort of on my radar, right and what you should know if you remember me talking to
you about social media before, it's one of the last sutras given to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wasallam. You can think of it as the Quran parting advice, like, now the OMA is going to engage with
the rest of the world. And of course, the Christian world was a huge part part of the world
population, and the Muslims were going to deal with them. And the Jewish population is still very
		
00:05:36 --> 00:06:13
			small. But the Christians were, you know, expanded through the Roman Empire. So they were multiple
ethnicities, expanding continents, right. So the Christian people are a huge millions and millions
and millions of people around the world and now Allah is saying this about them in the Surah. And of
course, this is something that you may have heard and you may have seen this kind of this this idea
or this kind of teaching politicized or used to describe one group versus another group and this
kind of thing, right. So I wanted to take a step back, give you a little bit of perspective on this
idea. Again, not covering all of the pieces but my intention actually used to cover all of these
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:35
			pieces in detail over time. The reason I'm my mind is preoccupied with this subject is right now
myself and my team are studying surah number 60 of the Quran SOTL Montana, and SOTL manga Hannah
actually begins with a similar idea to this one. And we're Allah says yeah, you have Latina
Amanullah that you DO I DO WE WERE I do work home Alia
		
00:06:36 --> 00:07:17
			those of you who believe don't take my enemy and your enemy as friends as friends so that's it's a
similar there it says enemy here it says Jews and Christians and some, some people who combine these
two and say aha, now I know the enemies of Allah or the Jews and the Christians, right, another
grave mistake. But let's take a little step back again. Let's start with one small similar piece.
The word that I translated poorly friend, right so let's dig deep into that word because the Arabic
language is very rich. And there are lots of different words for friends. So a hum is a friend
errific is a friend is Sadiq is a friend Helene is a friend Willie is a friend. There are lots of
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:54
			words in Arabic for friends. 13 is a friend right so in the Quran uses all of these words in
different situations to describe friendship of some kind or another. Now Allah we know that the
Quran is the precise word of Allah, exact word of Allah. So when Allah uses a specific word, then we
have to pay attention to that word and not think of it like the other words. In English. When you
say friend, it's just one word. Right? But in Arabic, because there are so many variations. Each one
of them is a different flavor. The way I want you to think about that is this is an example but it
will help you understand this concept. It's a silly example, but I think you'll remember it this
		
00:07:54 --> 00:08:31
			way. Imagine there are five burgers. They're all burgers, they all have the same beef patty. They
all have the same bonds. But this one has led us in tomatoes. This one's got ketchup. This one's got
onions, this one's got extra mustard. This one's got mayonnaise. They're still all burgers, but they
have a different flavor, don't they? Right, so in the end, there's something they have in common,
but there's something that sets each of them apart the same way in Arabic, you can have very similar
words that translate look like the same word and English friend, friend, friend, friend and friend,
but each one of them has a different flavor. And Allah actually employs those different flavors when
		
00:08:31 --> 00:09:12
			he teaches us lessons in the Quran. So the word Willie which is the plural or the plural of which is
Alia, which is used in this ayah is one of the words that Allah even uses for himself Allah Who will
you will Latina Amman, Allah Who will you will Latina Amina Allah is the Wali of those who believe.
Now let's look a little bit deeper into the origin of the word when he when he or she is actually
used when something comes right after something. So actually, for example, Walia is used for two
things it's used for when in the spring when the rain comes, and then there's like a 10 minute stop,
and it starts raining again. So one rain followed right after the other rain. That's actually called
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:49
			a Walia in Arabic. And similarly, the Arabs when they used to have a camel or a horse, they don't
just you don't just sit on the camel, you have to put a saddle on the camel, you put a seat on the
camel, then you sit on it, but the seat can injure the back of the animal. So what they would do it
they would put kind of a cushion on the back and then on top of the cushion, they would put the seat
the saddle, and then they would sit on the saddle. But since it's sitting there for a long, long
time, the cushion and the saddle, they press into each other and they become kind of glued to each
other. You know, they it's hard to take them off. It's kind of like Band Aid, right? It's hard to
		
00:09:49 --> 00:10:00
			rip off right. So when those the LEA it's stuck to the skin of the animal, the bottom layer, it
stuck to the skin of the animal and that's when it was called Alia. Also the
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:39
			If that word was used for two things that stick together now from this came the idea Lulu Zuma che
che and AHA when something is committed or stuck to something else and from it Imam Rahim argues L
value for Liberty Liberty who will curb that Willie actually has to do with closeness and now I'm
giving you a little a little more meaning of course friends are close to each other right? But this
is not just talking about friends that are close friends that are what stuck to each other. They're
like they're together and through thick and thin if you know what I mean. There's no gap in between
them they're just with each other all the time when Allah says that he's the willie of those who
		
00:10:39 --> 00:11:19
			believe that means in good situation bad situation and Ramadan outside of Ramadan when you're at
work when you're praying, Allah is close to you no matter what Allah is by your side no matter what
he is you're ready so that's the closeness is actually described inside the wealthy. Imam Rahim also
goes on to say whether we're totally and yet Salah che and fossa Azula and lace, Aveda Houma,
Melissa, in Houma, to things that are so close that nothing other than those two are in between,
nothing comes in between them. So when Allah is my Willie, then nothing comes between me and Allah.
That's actually what that means I have such a deep connection that nothing comes in between. Now you
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:29
			may have for example, a relationship with your with your with your wife, or your you know, your best
friend or your parents or whoever. But something comes in between,
		
00:11:30 --> 00:12:08
			right, like you want to talk, your wife says What's wrong, and your fear comes in between if I if I
tell her what's wrong, then there's going to be a bigger wrong. So whether something psychological,
this is something in between, when there's nothing in between, you can completely be open with the
other person. And by opening up to them, they don't become distant from you, they still stick with
you, then they become your wedding. That's a pretty strong word. This is not just describing any
kind of friendship. This is describing a very small, very specific kind of allegiance and unity
between people. Right, this and that. So that word should not be taken lightly. When you start out
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:46
			with Adekunle columbium in high school, McCann, I mean, high school, NASA, NASA. I mean, Haifa Dean,
this was used to describe extreme closeness physically. It's also used to describe extreme closeness
by lineage. Because of course, if you you know, back in the day, who were the closest people to you,
the people from your tribe, right, you stick with your tribe. And that's how you can tell your
loyalty nowadays in the modern world, you can tell citizenship by your passport, you can tell
citizenship by your legal status. Back in the day when you walked into a village the only US
citizenship you have is which tribe Do you belong to, that's where you stick with. If you go to some
		
00:12:46 --> 00:13:25
			other tribe, you have zero protection. So your own tribe or your Alia because you're stuck with
them, right, they will protect you now and this is then it's also used in the sense of people that
are together and committed with each other and on the same page when it comes to their religion,
women hate or sadaqa, oneness law, whether they call it and similar from it comes the idea people
that help each other and people that are you know, friendly or sincere towards each other and people
that share the same kinds of beliefs right so that's funny. Now this idea this this notion of being
very very close friends and aligned with each other from this word comes another phrase in the
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:31
			Arabic language will you will amor and will you will amor is used for someone who's in charge of
something.
		
00:13:32 --> 00:14:11
			Okay, so the willie of the house is the person who is in charge of the house. Okay. And you know,
the willie of the girl, for example, in marriage is the one who's in charge of getting her married.
Right? You're the willie of your your children, because you are responsible for what you know what
you should do with them. And so you become the willy ulama. Right. Or the Moto le also it's also
called the motorway leader, one who takes responsibility of something. Similarly, when somebody is
responsible for something the Quran, for example, talks about somebody who was responsible for
spreading a lie, and says, Well, Lolita well like Ebro, who, the one who takes responsibility for
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:46
			most of it. Right? So it's taking responsibility for someone or why what is the responsibility have
to do with closeness? Basically, think of it this way, when you're driving the car, and everybody's
a passenger in the car, when you turn everybody turns? They're stuck to you. When you make a
decision. It impacts everybody who's stuck to you, you go this way, they go this way, you go this
way, they go this way you understand? So your your direction becomes unison, you can sway from it.
This is the phrase that Allah azza wa jal used in the Quran multiple times to say, tell Muslims
don't become wellI other than believers.
		
00:14:48 --> 00:15:00
			Don't become a weenie to other than believers. And in total NIDA because the Muslims were expanding
into the Roman Empire actually. So the Muslims were going to come into a lot of contact with
Christian
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:42
			and people. And already towards the end of the sealer there were multiple battles and multiple
political and military conflicts with Jewish tribes in Medina. So the Muslims have already been in a
few years, there has been a few wars between the Muslims and the Jewish tribes, right? So Allah says
make sure that you you can, don't become so closely aligned, that when they turn, you turn, when
they go, you go, when they have a problem, you have a problem. Don't become like that with those
people. They may have aligned agendas with each other, they don't have those aligned agendas with
you. Somebody might hear that and say Islam is so intolerant. Islam doesn't, you know, we shouldn't
		
00:15:42 --> 00:16:20
			be together, we shouldn't be together as one. But when people are people have Wilaya. In everything
in life, you can have your favorite sports team in you know, when I traveled in Europe, we can't
talk about basketball much. But there's, if you're a Manchester United fan, and don't talk about
another team, right? If you're a Mavericks fan, which I don't know why it must be a lot of Torquil.
But if you're a Mavericks fan, then don't talk about the Lakers don't talk about anybody else.
There's team loyalties, right. And those loyalties can become so strong and crazy that people can
even go into riots when their team loses. Right there. Pakistan is here when they're watching a
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:58
			cricket match, especially a cricket match against the Indian team. There's a lot of drama and like,
extra in the waffle, and I don't know what's going on, you know, and people are passing out sweets,
if one of the other team wins, like a child was born, right? Because there's an idea of loyalty. I
affiliate with these people, right? So you find it in sports, you find it in American politics, if
somebody's left wing, and somebody's right wing, it's like they're two different countries now,
aren't they? If somebody has a particular kind of worldview, a liberal worldview, as opposed to a
conservative worldview, a red pill, worldview, as opposed to a blue pill worldview, you can find
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:35
			them having almost animosity towards each other, because of this one thing, this ideological
difference you might have in Muslim families, you might have, you know, family members that align
with one political party, and the other aligns with the other political party, right, and you might
find them having a real conflict with each other. So this happens in every part of life. And Allah
is telling us something very profound, he's not giving individual instruction here, you'll notice
that in certain Maya, there's so social instruction. And this is actually what I wanted to highlight
in this ayah. Allah says, Don't be so closely aligned with people of other faith, that you stick
		
00:17:35 --> 00:18:05
			with them so much, that when it's Christmas, you're sticking with them in the Christmas holidays.
And when they're fasting for Easter, you're hanging out with them in part, you know, and if there's
a, there's a ritual going on in the church, you're like, I'll come along with you. And your children
are not getting used to their religious practices and their way of doing things, or you're with them
at the office party, or you're with them at this, you know, at their birthday party, and you're at
them at them, you know, the pool party, and they're drinking beer, and they're doing whatever else,
and that's becoming normal for you more and more, It's haram for you. But it's okay, you're around
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:17
			it, it's okay. It's okay. It's okay. Over time, what happens is, your sense of connection to your
own values, starts becoming weaker, and you start becoming that becomes more normal for you.
		
00:18:18 --> 00:19:02
			Look, it's not shocking. There are people that live in the United States, Muslims that live in the
United States, not for two centuries, for 20 years, that have Christmas trees in their homes, every
every December. That's it's not shocking. It's it's a reality. It's not some imaginary thing. It's a
reality. Where did that come from? And why did they feel the need to do that, like they're not
showing it to somebody else. It's just that when you develop those kinds of connections without any
other filters, and you stick and you stick and you stick over time, your own values start becoming
weaker, and you start adopting the values of other people. Right? This is, in sociological terms,
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:36
			this is actually these ayat are about assimilation. I'd like you as a homework assignment, high
school students here college students know what assimilation is. But the rest of you should learn a
little bit about cultural, social political assimilation into societies. There are some societies
that don't want you to assimilate and I wanted to kind of balance this picture. Again, this is just
one pillar, there are lots of pillars. Right? And if you say that you should never take them as
friends, and you should, and one of the meanings of Willie also someone who takes responsibility for
you, right? So you should never let them be responsible for you. But that's not always the case.
		
00:19:37 --> 00:20:00
			That's simply not always the case. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was in Makkah, and one of
his biggest protection, and one of his British biggest Wilaya came from Abu Talib. That's just a
fact. They were the earliest Muslims we call them a sabich una Saba goon, the earliest Muslims,
right and what the first and the foremost, many of them migrated to have Russia and how Russia was a
Christian.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:41
			kingdom, and they found protection and friendship in a Christian kingdom. Right. So that's another
pillar that we have to discuss. But that pillar doesn't erase this pillar. They both exist. They're
not one or the other. They exist at the same time. And that's the problem that I want to bring to
your attention. There are ideas that at face value look like they are contradictory ideas. But
actually, the Quran gives us a balanced picture. In these circumstances, you cannot be in these
these things. You cannot be on the same page with other people. You simply can't. This surah I told
you, it's a small quiz. I don't want you to speak because it's the hot but this is from certain
		
00:20:41 --> 00:21:22
			Nida. Yeah, don't take them as earlier. This is the same Surah that Allah says that, you know, what
are our Latina who told kita Hello, Lakota Amoco. Hello, he says the food of those who were given
the book before you is permissible for you, and your food is permissible for them? What in the
world? Why? So this is not I'm not going to give you a sidebar about whether you can go to
McDonald's and have a chicken sandwich. That's not going to happen. But what I will tell you is
this. Allah could have just said you could eat their food. But he didn't stop there. He said you
could eat their food, and they could eat your food. Why did he say they could eat your I don't care
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:51
			what they eat, only care about what I what I put in my mouth? What do I care about what they put in
their mouth? This is Allah telling us if they invite you to their homes, go. And you should also
invite them to your homes. So that idea is not in some other place in the Quran. It's in the same
surah and the same Surah saying don't take the Yahoo than the Nosara as earlier. But when you invite
somebody to your home, then you are definitely being friends with them.
		
00:21:52 --> 00:22:31
			Absolutely, there's no way that you're not being friends with them. When you're going to their home
to eat, break bread with them. That's an act of friendship. And then sometimes those relationships
form and they get deeper. And eventually what does Allah say in the same ayat, well, musona terminal
mean a Latina, Latina, Latina Alton Kitab, you can even marry good family, women from among them.
That's in these islands. Again, the technicalities of that is not what I'm discussing here. I want
to discuss the balanced picture, to give you an idea of how Allah Allah azza wa jal talks about this
subject, as I conclude this clip, but one thing that I want to bring to your attention is something
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:39
			from the world of psychology that we need to be aware of in understanding this topic holistically.
And that is, I'll give you the sports analogy.
		
00:22:40 --> 00:23:03
			You know, if, for example, there's a, there's a team that is winning the championship, and they have
one player, that player, it's because of him, he's the star player, like, he's Michael Jordan,
right? He's the guy that gets he's, he's the clutch player, he wins them every single month. And
he's the reason they win championship after championship after championship. And then what comes out
is the day before the finals game,
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:44
			some scandal comes out. He's accused of assault, He's accused of, you know, beating his child, He's
accused of some drug charge or something else, right. And there's some lawsuit going on with him.
Now his fans have a problem. We should really condemn his actions. But can we do that after the
championship game? Because if we, if we say kick him off the team now, and he can no longer play,
we're not gonna get the cup. Right? But then if we so we have to decide what's more valuable to us,
the team loyalty? Or are we okay with this crime? Or then some people will say, No, no, I have a
solution. You know, these are probably false allegations, because they want us to lose the
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:45
			championship.
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:53
			I don't want to believe it. I don't believe it. I love this guy too much. History point shot is way
too good for him to ever be this child.
		
00:23:54 --> 00:24:30
			So you make this connection in your because you don't you don't want to live with the reality that
that your team, the people that you had to rely on to could do something wrong. You don't want to
accept that reality. On the other hand, does this is one extreme, and let's talk about a son. Now.
It could be that the Muslims, we figured out we did this, we did this, right? The kuffaar Don't do
this. And they don't know this. And we have these values. And we weren't so awesome. And they're so
horrible. And you become blind to all the terrible things Muslims are also doing. And Muslims are
doing some pretty terrible things. But you don't want to accept that your your team has a problem.
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:56
			Right? You don't want to accept that. So let's talk when we talk about our history. Let's talk about
Salahuddin. Right. Let's talk about Salahuddin, let's talk about the law. That's Islamic history.
But when there is a Muslim ruler, who massacres his own population, or bombs the neighboring Muslim
country or starves his own people or robs his own nation, oh, that's, that's not Islamic history.
That's Western propaganda.
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:59
			You know, that's not that's not Islam. So we don't want to own our
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:34
			On problems you understand. So that's a problem with Wilaya. That's a product. That's key because
there are Wilaya is to people, but it's not to actual values. On the other extreme, there's another
Wilaya problem. Well, that problem is, oh, my god, Muslims are so messed up. I know, I'm Muslim.
But, man, these people, they have beards and they pray and stuff, but they cheat you in business.
They lie. They're this way. They're this way. They're so horrible to women. They're so this. There's
so backwards. They're so you know, dirty, they're so chaotic. And, you know, look at how they are.
And then what happens is, now when you go to your non Muslim friends, you're like, Wow, they're so
		
00:25:34 --> 00:26:09
			clean. They're so nice. I know, they drink alcohol. I know, they go to the club every Friday night.
But this is the nicest person you'll ever meet in your life. I know that they do drugs, I know. But
seriously, though, they're better than so many Muslims that I know. There's so much nicer. So you
know what you're doing now? You're saying, Yeah, this stuff is bad. But it's not that bad. Because
now slowly, your allegiance is pulling off from here and you are going this way and you're sticking
to somebody else and you don't want to blind yourself to the bed and say it's not that bad. It's
okay. I can switch teams slowly.
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:20
			Right? And you're slowly aligning yourself the other way. And when you look at your own people, all
you see is the bad in them. You can only see the bad in them. So there's two extremes. Either you
only see the good in your people,
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:23
			or you only see the bad in your people.
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:30
			Those are the two extremes. Now what is Allah azza wa jal give us and I'll leave you with this.
Allah azza wa jal says,
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:37
			You Hello Dina Arman latet Duffy do ABA calm what a Juana como Leah.
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:39
			Wild.
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:52
			There Allah said don't take the Jews and Christians as Olia now Allah says listen to SUTA Toba. He
says don't take your fathers and your brothers as earlier
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:56
			in this the humble COFRA and Iman,
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:00
			if they prefer disbelief
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:02
			over belief.
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:28
			Now your loyalties are not to blood. They are not to religion. Your loyalties are actually to
values. It could be a Muslim who likes things from kufr more than they like things from Iman and
they I cannot I can be kind to them. I can be good to them. But I won't be there Willy. I will not
be stuck with them. So when they go towards gopher I go towards confer with them.
		
00:27:29 --> 00:28:12
			If they go do the wrong thing I just quietly endorsed I can't do that. And it's the hub will go for
Alan Eman woman Yetta Walla home income formula equal volume and Whoever sells sell aligns
themselves with them sticks with them, then those are the people that are doing wrong. Those are the
wrongdoers. It's not just the people that do wrong, that are volleyball. It's the people that align
themselves silently with them and go along with them. They're also the value. They're also the ones
that are doing wrong. This is a powerful, powerful subjects and are the Who do you align yourself
with? Who do you disconnect from on the basis of principles? And even connecting and disconnecting
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:25
			has nothing to do and loving and hating someone? And this is the last thing I'll share with you.
Does this mean that we must hate those who don't believe or those who don't have our values? We must
hate them? Well,
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:29
			Abu Talib clearly a Kaffir.
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:42
			Clearly, multiple times tried to invite him to stand even though he supported the Prophet alayhi
salam denied Allah. And he loves his nephew, but he doesn't love his many nephew as the messenger of
Allah.
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:51
			Right? He loves him as his nephew. He loves him as Muhammad. He does not love him as Muhammad
Rasulullah sallallahu the Schofer of his Resava Yeah.
		
00:28:52 --> 00:29:04
			So would it be wrong for for muscle loss? I seem to love him. Because it says he's gotten How can
you love a cafe? Allah says it Nicola daddy, money but
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:11
			when he passed away, prophesized to them was told you cannot guide whoever you have loved.
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:14
			Allah didn't question the fact that he loved him.
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:17
			Allah just said it's not up to you to guide him.
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:22
			Allah did not prohibit loving those who don't believe
		
00:29:23 --> 00:29:30
			he didn't stop that from he didn't even stop that for His messenger. SallAllahu analisa. You
understand? Allah didn't tell Ibrahim Ali son not to love his father.
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:44
			He didn't tell him that. Those that's a separate subject. So what happened? The reason I wanted to
give you this advice is we hear one thing, don't take them as friends, which is again a bad
translation, then we turned this into we must hate them.
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:59
			Or we turn this into this is too extreme. Or we take that one pillar. We don't look at the rest of
the building and say, Hey, there's a much bigger picture here before you form judgment. There's so
much more and we oversimplify
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:18
			stuff those of you that are interested in getting a little bit more comprehensive view on the
subject, I'll wear that one but this is what it's called in the Arabic language this subject as
well. It's a really nice article. It's about 35 pages, it's an Arabic. Hopefully, inshallah I will
have some of my students translate it and put it up also make a PDF out of it, but it's an Arabic.
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:32
			If you Google and Willa Bara Sheikh Hatem and oni Hatem allow me you will find the article it might
be of benefit to you those of you who understand the Arabic language BarakAllahu li Walakum feel for
