Shadee Elmasry – Is Watching Anime Haram- SHOCKING JINN STORY

Do you want to hear a jinn story?

There is a person that once told me

that he has become adept at removing jinn

from people.

We do believe in such a thing called

jinn possession, but it's not an obligatory Islamic

belief.

Let me just put it out there for

you.

It's not obligatory or recommended to believe in

jinn possession.

However, Imam Ahmed Ibn Hanbal said we know

it exists.

We know it.

Imam Ahmed's son himself said, can a jinn

enter a person and take over that person's

body?

He said, yes, we've seen it.

It's well known that it happens.

Talks with a different voice, has enormous amounts

of strength, etc.

In any event, if you don't want to

believe in it, no problem.

There is no blemish in a person's religion

if he doesn't believe that jinn possess people.

You have to believe that jinn exists.

You have to believe that jinn whisper to

people.

You have to even believe that a jinn

can touch a person, but you don't have

to believe in any circumstance that jinn can

enter into people.

Anyway, there's a reason I'm telling you this

story because there's a benefit.

He extracted a jinn from a kid and

the jinn entered Islam.

And he said to him, let me tell

you Muslim something.

The number one tool that we use against

you is *.

Number two, anime.

No way.

That's what he said.

The jinn said that?

Yeah.

He said that we use anime.

People are addicted to it.

And our goal is to make you a

Satan worshiper.

If we don't make that goal, it's to

make you an atheist.

If we don't hit that goal, it's to

make you gay.

Not my words, not my words, but I'm

just passing it on to think that sometimes

maybe anime is not so pure for everybody,

not Mickey Mouse here.

Maybe there are some other agendas behind that.

And I personally didn't understand it because all

I understand anime to be is a style.

So it could be a good anime, could

be a bad anime, right?

But the question is, what's the majority?

I think that's the fair approach.

What is the majority?

Is it good messages or bad messages?

Because as I understand it, it's just a

style.

Like, why can't someone make a Muslim anime

cartoon, right?

Upholding Tawheed, right?

Or just neutral, just neutral.

A neutral story about a boy and his

dog or something like that, right?

A neutral story.

Is it possible?

I think it is, right?

I'm not an expert in this thing.

Wholesome One agrees with me.

He's the one that was saying that the

Shams are married.

He's the one who wants to talk to

Shao Tzeen, okay.

To jinn, I mean.

Listen, I wouldn't go there.

Wholesome One, stay wholesome.

Don't get involved in the jinn.

* Rahman says it's full of sexualization.

And I was informed now that there is

an entire field of * that is anime.

And he said that that's sort of more

crazy because humans, when a human being is

doing *, there's a limit to what the

human can do.

But this is cartoon *.

So do we have to give a ruling

on cartoon * now?

It's unlawful.

I'll tell you why it's unlawful.

The ruling in Islam is sexual pleasure in

any way, shape and form is only allowed

from your spouse, right?

Back in the old days, there was ma

malakat yaminuk, right?

Which doesn't exist anymore, at least in our

world that we live in here.

Maybe in Mauritania it exists.

And in the future, who knows, that that

institution of the world may come back and

the rules would apply.

But ultimately, cartoon, any kind of *, even

if they created a * which was with

objects, it would be unlawful.

Sexual pleasure from looking, touching, thinking, what have

you, is only lawful for your spouse, through

your spouse.

Wholesome One says, anime is a cult and

obvious to the trained eye.

A friend of mine who's in med school

published an academic paper in a medical journal

proving that anime causes autism.

What?

There's a lot of overstimulation, I think, right?

And the idea of anime is that you're

being sucked.

A lot of these people, if you look

at the ones who have gone into the

deep end of anime, they're so out of

touch with reality.

They're completely sucked into a virtual world of

characters that don't exist and they've made their

entire life about these people.

So, first of all, I think the waste

of time is a whole other thing, right?

But see, I transmitted what that brother, what

that sheikh told me.

He is a sheikh and he says he's

warning everyone against anime.

I'm just saying that I'm transmitting it because

I believe him.

But I don't have belief based on knowledge.

You know what I mean?

Like, I believe the source.

I believe you.

My level of belief is low because I

don't have knowledge of it, right?

And it was a bit surprising to me

too because all I know about anime is

that it's a style of making the cartoon.

But I also know that it's a waste

of time.

Waste of time at a certain point.

You know in our fiqh, يسير اللهو حلال.

That's it.

A little bit of meaningless entertainment is halal.

When I sit at the end of the

day and I watch a couple highlights of

something and you watch some soccer or football,

a little bit, like five minutes, ten minutes,

we're saying.

We're not saying binging like this.

Even if you were to spread it a

little bit and watch a whole game, right?

That's a big waste of time.

Three hours to do nothing, okay?

On the treadmill, fine, at least you're exercising.

But يسير اللهو, a little bit of waste

of time is okay to, as they say,

take the edge off, relax yourself a little

bit.

These guys are watching episodes.

The show is a thousand episodes.

And each show is, let's say, it's 20

minutes.

A thousand divided by three.

Let's say it's 900 divided by three, 300

hours.

Ertugrul was barely halal because of how much

people watched it.

All night and barely woke up for Fajr.

Let's watch the conquest and watch how Muslims

conquer and then let's miss Fajr.

So, you got to keep in mind that,

subhanallah, just keep in mind the waste of

time is one thing.

And this is actually, like, you don't realize

how much, how many of the youth are

actually, like, obsessed with anime, I think.

It's actually, like, not addressed enough.

The waste of time is easy to say,

right?

The waste of time is easy to say.

The content of it, I trust my friend

who told me this.

I can't give you answers on knowledge, but

he says that it never leads to righteousness.

It always leads, there was one guy, he

said that his, by the way, there are

some Muslims who love anime.

There was one guy who said that when

he told him this, he made his kids

stop watching anime.

He said, Wallahi, the kid's attitude towards me

improved over time.

And when he was watching, his attitude towards

me, like, he talked to me so rudely,

etc.

Allahu alam.

So, don't clip that part that we just

said, the comment on anime, because I'm qualifying

that by saying that I can't imagine how

it's not possible to produce a good version

of that.

And here's a question for you.

Does it become almost like a good thing

to produce a good version of that?

It's like, imagine if there were no Muslims

on the internet and all that existed on

the internet was 90% bad stuff.

Gambling, *, other waste of time.

Some would say, the internet's haram.

I think it's similar to that, right?

It's not the internet that's haram, it's what's

on it that's haram.

It's the messages and the excess that is

unlawful.

So, it becomes synonymous because that's the only

thing that's there.

Do you notice that there's no one who

casually watches that stuff?

You're either an addict or you're nothing.

I don't know anyone who casually watches it.

You either know it or you don't.

But people are, it's either they're binge, like

I can casually watch soccer, football or basketball.

Nobody casually watches anime.

They're like all in, right?

So, it's the excess is one thing, the

content is another thing.

Jasmine Rice agrees and says, I saw friends

hypnotized.
