Shadee Elmasry – Iman is guarded knowledge

There's a hadith attributed to this surah in which the Prophet

peace be upon him said people will enter this religion in droves and

likewise they will exit in droves. As soon as the worldly situation

of the religion of Islam and Muslims changes and AI different

ideas spread and become attractive, you see people exiting

in droves, and it's really weighs down on me sometimes when

I see a lot of people, literally, their comments that I hear from

them that they write is absolute apostasy and, and COFA disbelief,

and yet their names are Mohammed or Osman or Aisha, right. And I'm

just wondering exactly how exact what exactly to this degree is the

ignorance. And this is exactly why we're studying Arabic. Because if

there's anything that made me study, it's having a relative who

was an apostate. Okay, maybe our guests, our family was ahead of

the curve in that respect. We had a relative who was an apostate.

And I thought to myself, Oh, well, not only do we have relatives in

Boston, we had two generations in a row in which we had an apostate

in the family, someone who left Islam. So I thought it was a well,

I mean, I'm actually the next in line, because it was the boys in

the family. Right? And I thought, well, I'm, that's my, that's also

my origin. So how do I how do I know that I'm not going to follow

in their footsteps. So I started to delve into Dean and really get

in get involved at a fear of that happening. And we should all have

that. Because nowadays, unfortunately, it's not really,

I'm afraid my daughter is going to have a boyfriend. Yeah, that's

bad. I'm afraid my son's gonna smoke marijuana. Yeah, that's bad.

But you really should also be on the radar. And if it's not in your

radar, get it on your radar, that simply leaving Islam, right, and

exposure to certain exposure to certain

certain ideas, certain thinkers, without being armed with knowledge

is a poison that will poison a person's event. Okay, it will, it

will spoil and it will

eat away at a person's event if they don't have knowledge. So this

is why I want you, the reader never to imagine that you could

keep going without knowing Arabic and knowing the sources directly.

Okay, because the greatest aid for Russia for fear of Allah azza wa

jal, and the having all of Allah is knowledge. Allah says in the

max, Allah has been a bad deal or lemma. Verily, people of knowledge

are the ones who truly fear Allah. Alright, have all forgot. So don't

if you're sitting there and your sister and you're not wearing

hijab, and you just work and but you love Islam, and here you are

taking this little Arabic course. Don't imagine that there's a gulf

between you and knowledge, Bridget, and don't say, Oh, well,

I'm not doing this or that. Okay, fine. Don't write the knowledge

will change you. If over time, you don't have to change yourself. The

knowledge will change. You don't think oh, I have to do this before

I can learn. It's not how it works, right? Just learn and save

your Islam by learning because these days you have to save your

Islam solely by learning. Alright, so we'll stop here and we'll pick

up the next next Surah which is sudut l care if you don't

ironically, right. We were just talking about disbelief and the

fear of disbelief. So that'll be the next suit in the next video.
