00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			All right, let's see if I missed
out on anything here.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26
			All right, here's a question.
That's good. Why do we have to use
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:31
			these words Maliki Hanafi. Ash it
Salafi, Shiite? Why do we have to
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:35
			use these words and why can't we
just be united? It's a good
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:39
			question that comes from always
comes from a good spot, a good
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:47
			intention. And it's no different.
Okay, it is no different than a
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:51
			lot of other things that we do
right in the world. And that is
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:55
			there are methodologies of doing
things. Okay. There are different
		
00:00:55 --> 00:01:01
			ways of doing things. And that the
Quran has gave us two matters,
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:06
			right? Why do I keep getting a
frowning face popping up on the
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			Livestream? Who is frowning? What
are you frowning for? There's
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:11
			nothing to be frowning about.
Right? Every day, everyone's in a
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			good mood. Everyone's doing great.
Someone keeps hitting the frown
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:18
			button. Right? I'm wondering, what
is the problem here? Right? I
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			mean, I don't know. I see. I see
everyone's here is in a good mood
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23
			asking good questions. I don't
know what is there to frown about,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:26
			right? I don't know if that's a
glitch or what? But I keep getting
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:30
			someone keeps frowning. Right and
being angry. Well, why don't you
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			just shut off the stream? I mean,
go watch Netflix, go watch
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36
			something else. If you're frowning
like that. Don't give me a frown
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:40
			like that. Just leave. Savonarola.
All right.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			I just don't get why people bother
themselves to listen to something
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:49
			that upsets them. Shut it off.
Right? No problem. Alright, I'm
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:52
			not gonna be offended. I'm not
getting paid. Here. I don't need
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:56
			viewers, right. In any event,
let's get back to the subject that
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			why do we call these names?
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:05
			There, ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada has
given us some matters in the
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:12
			Sharia that are so crystal clear.
So crystal clear. Okay. There is
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:18
			no discussion on these matters.
Okay. And these matters make you a
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:23
			Muslim. Okay? These matters make
you a Muslim. Amongst these, some
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:27
			are more clear than others. Some
are emphasized so many times.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:32
			Without them, you can't be a
Muslim, others are mentioned
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:38
			enough times for it to be an
obligation obligatory belief, but
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:43
			not so much that you that you
would know it by default, right?
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:48
			That you would know it by just by
necessity, right? In this type of
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:51
			thing. So the first category, that
thing which is repeated so many
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:56
			times all over the Quran, all over
the hadith is what makes you a
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:56
			Muslim.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:01
			And that which is repeated a
number of times, but not so many
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:06
			times that every single Muslim
would know it. That's what we call
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:10
			a Sunni, right? A belief that's
required, but not known by
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:15
			everyone. Okay, it's required, but
not known by everyone. Right.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:21
			So that's what renders a person to
practice Islam properly. So now
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:25
			let's take the first question. Why
do we even need the word Sunni?
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:28
			And what does it mean? We need the
word Sunni because for everything
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:32
			that is exists, everything that
can be done, there is a correct
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:36
			way to do it, and an incorrect way
to do it. Right, there's a right
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			way and a wrong way to do
everything, including Islam. There
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:42
			is a right way to do it and a
wrong way to do it. And the phrase
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:47
			Sunni originates with the
companions. When late after the
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:51
			province jetsam, Allah when he was
done and many people started to
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:57
			make big mistakes, big blunders in
Islam. And the Muslims were
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:01
			they're having wars and arguments
and debates. Okay.
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:07
			So this idea that Islam can be
done correctly and can be done
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:11
			incorrectly developed in the time
of Satan it been amputated. And
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:15
			the term Sunni came from that
period of time, that Elizondo
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:19
			Jamal came from that period of
time, meaning those Muslims who do
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:22
			it correctly. So when you say
Addisonian wedgemount, and you say
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:28
			suddenly, you're really just
saying Islam, okay? And anyone who
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:35
			rejects or puts aside, or
disbelieves, in a hadith that has
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:36
			a number of
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:40
			it clear Hadith that has
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:48
			that has been transmitted to us,
right without doubt, or an
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			explicit
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:54
			meaning from the Quran. We would
say that person or forget explicit
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:57
			meaning, let's just stick with the
Hadith. Someone who rejects a
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			hadith that is clearly transmitted
we'd say he's a heretic.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			outside of Sunday, this is what
bidet is exhibiting and therefore
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:10
			how that person chooses to go
astray. We have to talk about it
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:13
			right we have to give it a name
instead of saying well he's one of
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:17
			those people who believes in X y&z
He just labeled it with one word
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:22
			with one name. Like you don't say
red lobster is a restaurant that
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:22
			serves
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:29
			you know, crabs, lobsters, fish
and shrimp. You just say seafood,
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:34
			write one word to summarize the
whole thing. Write one word to say
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:37
			summarize the whole thing. And
that's what it is one word to
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			summarize the whole thing. Now
someone could say, Well, okay, I
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:44
			get it when it comes to Sunni. And
then she or he or more Desi Li, or
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:51
			how to G or majeste sim, alright,
each of these Orchidee or No,
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:55
			Qatar is different from kadhi
kadhi, or botany, these are all
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:59
			different sects. And they went
astray on different matters,
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:04
			modernists, reformists, they went
astray on different matters, they
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			rejected different Hadith.
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:07
			So
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:15
			within Islam, we now come to the
third tranche of what Allah has
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:18
			given us, those matters where
there cannot be possible any
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:22
			dispute those matters that are
crystal clear, but not known to
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:26
			everyone. And then those matters
that are very subtle, and there is
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:28
			very little
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:33
			Quran or Hadith about it, but we
have to come to a conclusion,
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:38
			right? We have to have an answer.
But there's very little Quran or
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:42
			Hadith about it. And therefore
what is required, it's required
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:46
			for the scholars to use their
knowledge and their of Arabic of
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:51
			the Sahaba of the hadith of Quran
of the photo of the sahaba.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:56
			Alright, and of logic, okay, and
of the purposes of Islam, and come
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:57
			to a conclusion.
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:05
			Right, those conclusions if they
do not contradict any of the
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:09
			verses and Hadith, or the
statements of the Sahaba, or the
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:15
			self, and they follow a logical
principle of thought that we call
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:20
			that a method. All right, and
opinion, a scholarly opinion.
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:25
			Right. That's what a scholarly
opinion is. All right. So when you
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:30
			have that third tranche, so the
first tranche, again, is that
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:34
			which is explicitly clear in the
Quran, and all over the Hadith.
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:37
			And once you watch that hadith, if
you reject one of them, you're not
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			even a Muslim. Like someone who
says, well, there's no such thing
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:44
			as salah or Hajj. I mean, at that
point, you're not even was next
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:48
			one, that which is very crystal
clear. However, it not everyone
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:51
			would know it. Okay, we would say
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:56
			only if you are informed about it,
and you reject it, you would be a
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:02
			bit a. Alright. So that's, that's
clear to, and that third, clear,
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:06
			but not widely spread. The third
tranche is that which Allah and
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			His messenger did not make many
statements about it. Right? They
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:13
			didn't make many statements about
it. So the scholars have to use
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:16
			their knowledge and their
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:21
			the precedent of the companions or
anything that can draw upon to
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:25
			come to a conclusion, and this
they may differ upon it. And there
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:30
			can be as many differences as
possible in this. Okay. And in the
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:33
			early times, there were so many
scholars who all had their own
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:39
			opinions. But the students of
those scholars all died out. Okay.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:44
			Except for four, which are the
four methods the students still
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:49
			existed, you might ask, Well, what
if we have access to the books?
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:53
			What if we have the books of those
scholars, the book of a lathe of
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:57
			INSEAD, and the book of Sofia and
authority and his fatawa, and
		
00:08:57 --> 00:09:02
			Ozai, and all of the mama bear,
Russian and Zooey, and all them
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:08
			which had Muslim Imams, God, why
can we follow them? We say no,
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:15
			because of how important it is,
for us to discern and to know that
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:18
			what was said in the book that
you've asked, What what are you
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:21
			going to take, you're going to
find a manuscript in a library,
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:23
			and you're going to follow that
know, how do we know it wasn't
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:27
			someone else? put something in
there? How do we know that that's
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:32
			authenticated from that scholar?
So we reject it? Right? We do not.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:36
			That's why even hazard and hate to
me, he stated that it is forbidden
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:41
			to follow in FIP, and make tech
lead of any other than the form of
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:45
			that because we don't know if you
find a manuscript in a library if
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:48
			someone had added or taken out
from it. How do you know it's
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:51
			authenticated from that scholar
from that which said Amen. There's
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:55
			no toe thief. It has to be worth
up. Right in order for us to
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:59
			follow it. So we need to be sure
if you're telling me this is the
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			medical opinion
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			How am I supposed to know Maddox
said that for real or not? Right?
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			How am I supposed to know was chef
he said that for real or not?
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:09
			Right? Because I'm gonna worship
Allah based upon that statement.
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:09
			Okay?
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:14
			There could be heaven and *
involved. So therefore we have, we
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:19
			can only follow and take as
precedent and as examples, the
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:25
			muda hip that are transmitted
through the centuries, from not
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:30
			one not to hundreds, hundreds and
1000s of scholars, every
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:34
			generation transmitting and making
sure that what Imam Abu Hanifa
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:37
			said is actually what's being
transmitted to the next
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:41
			generation. Okay. And as for
there's something else called
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:47
			Noah's and Noah's are matters that
are new in every generation, that
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:51
			we need new scholars to talk about
it, for example, you're not going
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:55
			to find in the form of hubs. How
do I pray on an airplane? That's
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:58
			not facing the Qibla? What am I
supposed to do turnaround pray in
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:00
			the aisle? You can't pray in the
aisle, first of all, because you
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:04
			can't, you can't pray in any place
where people are walking. That's
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:09
			the first thing, right? You can't
pray there. You cannot pray in an
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:12
			exit. You can't pray in front of
the exit. Okay.
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:17
			How do you pray? You did then
there's difference of opinions on
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:20
			that. Right? The the scholars
discuss it and give it a
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:25
			generation. And we'll come to
consensus. The two opinions now
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			are that you just pray sitting
down.
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:36
			Or you pray sitting down, and then
make it up when you land according
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:39
			to some other fatawa? Because you
missed
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:45
			you missed the obligation of
prayer, multiple obligations,
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:48
			which is standing this question
off man that says, Well, why can't
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:53
			you just make up your own method?
You can go study and do it. Okay?
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:59
			Why not? Go study and do it?
Right? I mean, I can ask you, why
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:03
			don't you go make a cure for
cancer? Go do it. Right. No one
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:05
			said you can't there's nothing
saying you can't do it. Right?
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:09
			Nothing say you can't do it.
Remember CLT existed and 900 in
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:12
			the in the last of the century
before the turn of the millennium.
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:17
			Hijiri millennium, right. And he
said, I'm on which to have mutlak
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:21
			I have mastered according all my
peers agree. I have mastered every
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:26
			subject. Quran, Hadith, Arabic
language or soul flip is history.
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:27
			Everything.
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:33
			And I can make my own method and
start documenting every issue.
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:38
			Okay, in writing and this is the
CLT method. Al Gianelli, yeah,
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:41
			they could call it or whatever,
okay. Because his name is genetic,
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:46
			Deena cod. But his peers said why
would you what are you going to
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			bring? that's any different,
right? That's already out there.
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:52
			He agreed. He said then I
restricted myself to the share
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:57
			females have any give us fatawa on
matheba Chevy. Okay, now, you can
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:02
			go study, right? Go study.
Firstly, just just understand the
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:06
			Hanafy method first, right? Master
one of them or the head first, it
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:09
			will take you like a decade. Okay?
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:29
			Holly says, If I'm Hanafy, and I'm
about to pray and I begin to bleed
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:34
			with moving blood, can you take a
chef a Roxa? Where it's not
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:37
			something that breaks will do and
continue to pray? Or that wouldn't
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:40
			be a good reason to take a
dispensation? I would only say
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:47
			that you would take a dispensation
for need. And if you're going to
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:52
			miss the prayer, right? You're
about to miss the prayer, then,
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:56
			then yes, you could take the just
so the basic let's just take a
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:56
			step back.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:00
			The question is, when can a person
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:04
			borrow from another mother?
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:06
			Because we talked about this.
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			If we have the law
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:12
			and you have different motherhood,
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:19
			I can give you a menu and you can
take the easiest of all methods.
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:20
			Right?
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:24
			Whenever people say the province I
sent him was given a choice he
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:28
			took the best of it he the easiest
of it. We say to you go look at
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:30
			the explanations of the Hadith.
The Prophet was never given
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:33
			choices in religion, he's the
Prophet, he was given choices in
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:37
			matters of the dunya. So should we
go this route or that route?
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:42
			Right? Should we cook our food
this should we cook now or March
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:47
			and cook later? Right? Those maps
should we fight in the city or go
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:51
			outside the city? In those
matters, he chose what is easiest
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:56
			for the people. Right? Not in
matters of Dean. So the idea that
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			just choose the easiest matter in
all the motherhood can lead a
		
00:14:59 --> 00:14:59
			person to
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			straight. All right, and what kind
of methodology is that?
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:07
			What kind of method is that? He
said, Well, I'm smart enough to
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:11
			decide for myself what's good and
what's bad. Okay, fine.
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:16
			The intellect of the human being
is driven by his desires, you
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:22
			can't deny that and everyone wants
the ease. So you want to be Maliki
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:25
			when it comes to trimming
eyebrows, because the Medicare
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:29
			have a federal, they take the Rewi
of Seda Isha over the way rewire
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:33
			of Eminem is owed. Because the
famous Hadith of the cursing of
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:36
			those who pluck eyebrows, people
don't even realize it's moved to
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:39
			evidence owed. Right. And some
people say it's more for Hawkman.
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:43
			And some people say it's not meant
for Hockman, right? And say that
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:47
			it's just said to a woman trim
them, right. So there's difference
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:50
			on that. So they want to be
medically on that Hanafy when it
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:51
			comes to feet,
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:55
			because they're allowed the
showing of the feet, Shafi when
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:59
			are non Hanafi when it comes to
seafood, because the same method
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:01
			that says you can show your feet
also disallows you from eating
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03
			lobster and crab. Alright,
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07
			humbly when it comes to wiping on
socks, because I'm active and
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:11
			humble is the only method that
allows wiping on a sock. As long
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:16
			as that's sock, you can walk in
right as not not like so thin that
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:18
			would rip if you walked, if you
can walk in it, you can wipe on
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:23
			the sock, you can wipe on with the
turban, the Koofi the hijab, for
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:26
			will do so you want to be humbly
in that. But by the way, Imam
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:28
			Muhammad does not allow the
plucking of any hair from the
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:32
			face. So if you're a woman, and
you want to look beautiful, right?
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:35
			You want to pluck hairs from your
face and have wax and do all these
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:39
			things, right, and get threaded
and all that stuff. Right? And you
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:42
			want to wipe on your socks and eat
seafood and go and sandals in the
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:46
			summertime. So why don't you just
mix it all up in a tossed salad?
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:48
			Is this a religion?
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:52
			This is a religion. Right?
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:58
			Rather, what is better in the
sight of Allah subhana wa Tada.
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:01
			And in the sight of your own self,
you know your own self, and no one
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:04
			feels good. Oh, looks up from
here, but also from there. So
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:06
			what's your what is this to get
out of any work? You'd want to do
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:10
			any work in religion? No. The best
thing, if you're a student is to
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:13
			study the methodologies, study the
Imams, and you don't select a
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:16
			ruling, you select a methodology.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:22
			Right? You select you study the
methods, right? And then you say
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:26
			this is the method I'm going to I
feel is correct and the best. And
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:29
			you take everything else. And then
you say this is the law book that
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:33
			I go by. And what have you done
removed subjectivity? The whole
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:39
			point is to remove subjectivity.
Okay? You don't want subjectivity
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:43
			in your religious life, remove
subjectivity. Okay, make a
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:47
			decision and you follow it
throughout life. If there's a
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:51
			hardship, we don't have a rigid
religion. We have ease, you have
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:56
			hardship. Take another month up.
No problem. All right. You in the
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:59
			hands of your mother, if you're
bleeding? Is it about the blood
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:03
			flowing? If the blood flows you
lost will do. Okay, if you're in a
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:07
			certain situation where this
happens regularly, and maybe the
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:10
			100 female I'm sure the Imams will
give you a rasa go follow the non
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:11
			Hanafi opinion on that.
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:17
			Or if you're about to lose the
salaam miss the prayer. Take her
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:20
			off, sir is better. Right? Well,
lo Adam.
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:24
			So that's the question about them
with that what is a federal a
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:27
			federal is a judgment of a
scholar.
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:34
			The judgment of a scholar, which
is something not explicit in the
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:37
			Quran or Hadith that like for
example, how many prayers are
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:42
			there five a day? That's not a
federal? Right. That's just that's
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:44
			not a federal? Right? That is
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:49
			just knowledge. That's it's you
don't need to think about that.
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:54
			Right. A federal is a thought were
a problem where the evidence is
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:55
			are not clear.
		
00:18:56 --> 00:19:01
			Or they're limited. So we need to
discuss it. Right and
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:05
			and come with a ruling that's a
federal okay.
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:10
			How do you reply to someone who
has an issue with punishment for
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:11
			someone who leaves Islam?
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:16
			Why would you have an issue that's
a beautiful ruling is from Allah
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:20
			subhana wa Tada? Because the
answer to your question is you can
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:25
			go into my blog, and go to the
question the the essay that says
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:31
			nothing in the universe is more
important. In Islam, nothing in
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:37
			the universe in existence is more
important than Amen. Billa
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:42
			subhanaw, Taala and Amen. When we
say Amen, Allah we mean Imam below
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:44
			Malacca to could to be able to
live with Yamanaka to believe in
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:47
			Allah the angels, the books, the
prophets, messengers, they have
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:52
			judgment and and predestination.
All of ima for me, equitable II
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:54
			manufactured habitat tomorrow,
right.
		
00:19:56 --> 00:20:00
			We believe that this is the number
one most important thing
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			In the universe, it's more
important than freedom. It's more
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:06
			important than liberty. It's more
important than everything that you
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			that any everything that anyone
that has ever said is important.
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:15
			Any threat. It's more important
than humanity itself. And what's
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:20
			the proof to uphold it? Allah says
yes, sacrifice, go to war,
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:22
			sacrifice your life to uphold it.
Right?
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:32
			Life is important. Amen Billa and
other a sound belief, okay is more
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:35
			important than anything else. So
much so that he created a law of
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:39
			martyrdom, if you die serving
this, you go to heaven. Okay.
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:45
			If you die serving this protecting
this you got to have and so much
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:52
			so that anyone who is luring the
people away, right and has done a
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:57
			fitna, okay, in this regard, and
left it in order to keep you any
		
00:20:57 --> 00:21:00
			man, Allah has put a very harsh
punishment there. Right?
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:06
			No different than if I was to wage
war on the on a government, so to
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:11
			speak. Let's say I live in a
country, Kazakhstan, and I'm a
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:15
			Kazakhstan citizen. Okay, I'm a
Kazakh citizen, and I go wage war
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:19
			against Kazakhstan and say, Here I
am. I'm ready to wage war and I'm
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:22
			gathering people against you. What
is that called? Treason? And what
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:26
			is it punishable by death? You can
backspace, because you're a
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:31
			problem. You're a cancer. So in
Islam, the nation state is not
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:34
			more important than to hate to
hate is more important. So if you
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:38
			can understand that when you
threaten the nation state,
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:43
			good, then you're out, then you
shouldn't understand anything
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:47
			else. above that. And beyond that,
okay. Now, as for the statement of
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:50
			some people that know, it's only
if the person is actively
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:54
			recruiting people to become
Catholic, we say no, that's not
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:57
			what the classical Allamah said,
that's just Muslims who are trying
		
00:21:57 --> 00:21:59
			to please the
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:05
			some more moderate palates,
liberal palates and say, no, no,
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:10
			no. It's only if someone's going
to cause trouble, that we execute
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:14
			them. And their capital punishment
is only for those who want to
		
00:22:14 --> 00:22:18
			cause trouble. I'm telling you,
that is just a bunch of softness,
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:24
			and trying to appease certain, you
know,
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:30
			you know, certain groups and
certain sentiments, right. But
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:32
			that's not what the law is. Let's
be honest, if we're going to do
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:36
			Islam do it honestly. They never
said that. Show me one classical
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:39
			scholar, whoever said that, right.
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:43
			It's not about if he's just doing
a revolution, no.
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:48
			Right? Because that act in itself
of apostasy, we consider it the
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:51
			worst act on the face of the
earth, right? Or the worst
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:52
			possible act.
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:57
			All right. And by the way, I don't
call for the establishment of
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:01
			these laws, and I and go back to
the I believe in them are 100%,
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:06
			right. But in this moment in time,
go back a couple minutes. And what
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:09
			I said when the people all believe
in Allah subhana wa, tada and the
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:12
			Messenger of Allah, they want it,
then they'll call for it. So
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:15
			that's something that just for
clarification if you came late,
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:18
			that's my position on the matter.
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:22
			We have a question here from NEDA
Mahmud, what are some factors that
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:25
			one should take into consideration
when deciding what method one
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:27
			should study and follow go get the
book by
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:33
			Abu Zahra, the four Imams read it
very well. You study the
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:37
			biographies of the scholars. And
number two, you study their
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:41
			methodologies in that book, I'm
sure maybe it's a PDF too. And you
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:44
			can get plenty of biographies on
audio, but the book is really
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:48
			good. That's number one. But
number two, you have to see
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:51
			availability, there is no sense in
going to Pakistan and saying I
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:56
			want to be a Maliki or being you
live in Algeria and say I want to
		
00:23:56 --> 00:23:59
			be a Hanafi there is no point
because you won't find a Hanafi
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:02
			teacher. The whole point of these
Medina is that the teachers are
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:05
			readily available. And it's very
sad for me to say that the humbly
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:08
			method is a little bit less
available, okay, than any of the
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:13
			others. But in any place that you
go, there are plenty of enough who
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:18
			can transmit to you the rulings of
Abu Hanifa plenty of Maliki who
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:23
			can transmit to you the sounds
fatawa and he had that of medic
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:25
			likewise a chef a Okay
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:36
			Chris is asking what's the
difference between federal and
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:40
			fatawa? fatawa is plural that's
all for the word fatawa means is
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:42
			the plural of federal that's all
it is.
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:58
			All right, next question says I
was told many students of Hanafi
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:59
			were not considered shrimp is
haram. You
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:03
			So, the issue of shrimp in the
hunt of human is different upon
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:08
			because shrimp dies when it comes
out of water. Lobster and crab do
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:11
			not die when they come out of
water. Therefore, Abu Hanifa said
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:14
			they're amphibious. Therefore,
they're not of the sea of the sea
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:20
			literally meaning only can survive
in the sea. Okay, so shrimp dies
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:23
			when it comes out of the water.
Therefore, some of the NF said it
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:28
			is of the sea, whereas crab and
lobster can walk around and be
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:32
			fine outside the sea. So
therefore, he excluded that from
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:35
			being sequencers. And he
considered them
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:41
			not by you. And he considered
there's no evidence for eating
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:45
			them. So there are many other
reasons why the fnf rejected the
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:46
			eating of
		
00:25:49 --> 00:25:51
			crab and lobster, but they
differed on
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:57
			on shrimp, what's my thought on
philosophy, you have to study it
		
00:25:57 --> 00:26:01
			the very well, first, but
ultimately, philosophy just brings
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:05
			you more questions. Logic is
different. Logic is a science, we
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:08
			consider logic, a neutral science,
right?
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:13
			logic we can see and also the
fifth is logic a lot. Most of the
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:18
			principles of also of logic are in
the study of well suited FIP. It's
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:22
			a beautiful study, right? It's
awesome for your brain. Philosophy
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:28
			itself, is the attainment of truth
only with the intellect. To me,
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:32
			it's too narrow, we too narrow you
just end up with more questions.
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:36
			And secondly, have you ever seen
like a happy philosopher? These
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:40
			people are miserable. They're all
lonely. Right? So many of them
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:44
			kill themselves, too. You've never
seen like a happy philosopher
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:47
			surrounded with a family and
grandkids and a community and
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:52
			having a picnic and dying a
beautiful death. Right? It doesn't
		
00:26:52 --> 00:26:57
			happen. They're lonely, tend, they
tend to be right. They tend to the
		
00:26:57 --> 00:26:59
			and there's a reason for that
Allah is showing us seamount, he
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:03
			will show him right. It's showing
us this is not the path. Alright,
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:06
			so I think we gotten quite a bit
we'll take one more question.
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:10
			My wife is asking if Hana fees are
allowed for thinning the eyebrows?
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:12
			The answer, I believe, you should
just check with the honeybee
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:15
			scholar but when I checked, the
answer was yes, if the husband
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:19
			permits it, but it should not be
in such a way that it is to lure
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:24
			and attract men. It should just be
in such a way that removes what is
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:27
			unsightly that's it. Like an extra
things here and there extra hairs
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:30
			here and there. I Isha hasn't
asked the question, there are
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:33
			certain acts in Islam that may
have legitimate fatwah that allow
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:36
			for it to be permissible, varying
from method to method overall,
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:38
			that's correct. Even if those acts
may be generally controversial.
		
00:27:38 --> 00:27:41
			Some What if one doesn't know
about the federal law, yet persist
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:45
			to do the ACT unsure of whether it
is allowed or it is not allowed.
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:49
			And it happens to be allowed, we
say that they they did not have
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:53
			piety in their action and their
decision. But they haven't
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:56
			committed a sin either. Right?
They haven't committed a sin
		
00:27:56 --> 00:28:00
			either. Let's say for example, in
the medical school is the most
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:06
			lenient on drawing, right. And
they say the medica that the only
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:12
			prohibition is sculpting something
in its complete form.
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:17
			That would, could possibly be
alive like a horse with a complete
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:21
			horse like a complete form. If you
were to take the leg off the
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:24
			horse, well, horses are unique.
They can't live without a leg,
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:29
			right? Deer without a leg or just
the bust. They permit that.
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:34
			They're known to be lenient on the
matter of sculpting and drawing,
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:37
			they allow completely drawing, you
want to draw Peacock, draw
		
00:28:37 --> 00:28:38
			Peacock, right?
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:43
			Other Mother who are more strict
on that, and they say, No, you
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:44
			cannot draw
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:51
			anything that has life. So draw,
draw pictures of flowers only, or
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:56
			Geograph, geometric shapes, or
clouds or stuff like that.
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:59
			Alright. So now let's say someone
gets this and says, You know what,
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:02
			they were taught only one method.
And they said, You know what, I'm
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:06
			not doing this, to heck with this.
And I'm drawing and sculpting. We
		
00:29:06 --> 00:29:12
			say his heart has not done well.
He is everyone culpo his art has
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:15
			almost been rebellious against
Allah in that small matter. But to
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:19
			be rebellious is a big matter,
right? He hasn't done well in that
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:22
			respect. However, he's just lucky
that there's another McCullough's
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:27
			for him, right? So we should say
to people that when you act, try
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:28
			to see
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:34
			what the opinions are in a matter,
right? And try to be honest in
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:40
			your flip. And the beauty of this
idea that you choose methodologies
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:44
			is because the methodologies are
really only four. Right? That
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:49
			makes life a lot easier. And you
could replicate instead of
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:55
			dividing up all the issues and you
end up having your own version of
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:58
			FIP. Okay, how do you replicate
that?
		
00:29:59 --> 00:29:59
			Right
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			How do you transmit that to the
next generation? The beauty of
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:07
			these, the logbooks of the methods
is that let's say I'm studying a
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:15
			logbook, okay? If I don't if my
teacher here dies, or moves, I can
		
00:30:15 --> 00:30:18
			go to another teacher and he knows
the logbook he and another chef or
		
00:30:18 --> 00:30:20
			a teacher and if your medical
teacher, he'll know the same
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:24
			logbook, and will continue. Right.
So that's the beauty of order and
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:26
			consistency. And fifth. Okay.
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:30
			Couple more questions. We'll take
them and then we'll wrap it up.
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:33
			Because we've been on for hour and
35 minutes. I know some people
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:37
			they stream for, like, two, three
hours. I'm thinking to myself,
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:40
			well, you must be single, right?
You must be single.
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:48
			She has a she has said so keybie
says what about photography shit?
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:52
			Can we as Hannah fees, take the
Maliki rule? Or would that be
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:58
			tough? Yep. I think I'm flexible
on something that is widespread in
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:02
			life. So photography today is not
like drawing a painting. How many
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:05
			people drew paintings very few.
Photography is very widespread.
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:08
			And this is something called a
moment better when something is
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:12
			very widespread. When something is
extremely widespread, there is
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:15
			room to take the more lenient
opinions on it. Right. There's
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:16
			room for that.
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:25
			Zaid says, I see what you're
saying. But in my opinion,
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:29
			philosophy circles, all mine
intellect, soul and spirit from a
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:32
			human understanding and Islamic
perspective. Yeah, well, the word
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:37
			philosophy could mean like a
method of doing something. In that
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:39
			case, you can have a philosophy
for how you cook shrimp, right?
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:45
			Maybe he's talking about something
a little more. He's different. But
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:52
			the philosophy as a definition is
the quest for truth using solely
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:55
			reason and intellect. Right?
		
00:31:56 --> 00:32:01
			If if it's defined in that manner,
then it's very narrow. Right. But
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:07
			if it's defined as any set of
ideas about a thing, then yeah, no
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:10
			problem. Right, then then yeah,
it's a lot broader.
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:19
			Alright, so that's a wrap on the
questions for now, if I can get to
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:23
			anything else, I will do that. I'm
sorry, if some of for some of the
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:27
			listeners that we got into some
more of the heavy issues.
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:31
			You know,
		
00:32:34 --> 00:32:38
			but this just happens to be the
subject for this live stream.
		
00:32:38 --> 00:32:41
			Right? The question is, what if
the method in your city don't
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:44
			mention what method they follow
and don't have fifth classes in
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:47
			general? I don't think they need
to, unless they're given you
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:53
			fatawa. Then they need to tell you
what the Medallia bar right? Okay.
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:57
			And as long as their sounds in one
of them, they're okay. If they
		
00:32:57 --> 00:32:59
			don't teach fifth, that's fine.
You can find somewhere else and
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:02
			learn fifth, there's plenty of
places on the internet to learn
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:07
			FIP I never heard that a myth have
had a message it has to announce
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:12
			what method there? Because what
are they doing there? They only
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:16
			need to announce their method on
one matter. So that's when asked
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:18
			when the event comes in, right?
Because that's the only
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:24
			difference. So if a mess mother
Masjid on the base level, is just
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:28
			sulla social activities,
recitation of Quran, if they have
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:34
			a class, everyone has a right if a
ruling is given. If a ruling is
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:38
			spoken, every Muslim has the right
to ask the origin of that ruling.
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:44
			Right? So if a person gives you a
ruling, okay? And it's different.
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:48
			If you're a teacher and you're
teaching someone fit from A to Z,
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:52
			you're only going to teach one law
book. If you're just giving a
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:56
			general lecture, then you can
without like necessarily teaching
		
00:33:56 --> 00:34:01
			students, then you would teach all
the muda it's just a general
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:06
			lecture, right? If you're a Mufti
or an Imam, and someone from your
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:10
			congregation comes to ask you a
question. You're obligated to give
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:16
			him the ruling that suits him. A
common man comes and says, Oh,
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:22
			I got a job. And the only job I
got was Red Lobster. Is it halal
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:25
			for me to serve this lobster? You
say to him? Yeah, it's hella for
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:28
			you. Because what are you gonna
tell him quit your job? Right over
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:32
			a different upon matter? No, as a
mufti, your job is to give the
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:36
			easiest ruling. Right? So there's
a big difference between maalim y,
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:43
			right? And Mufti and QA the QA the
rules by what the Sultan gives
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:43
			him.
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:48
			Period, the Sultan will come and
give you a book rule by this book,
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:51
			judged by this book. The Sultan
has the right to do that. Why so
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:54
			that all the courts could judge by
the same book.
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:59
			Okay, the same standard. The God
is wanting the Mufti. He has to
		
00:34:59 --> 00:34:59
			give
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:03
			The people the easiest of the
rulings, the maalim
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:07
			he's teaching you he's teaching
students should teach them one
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:08
			book. Right.
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:15
			And this the General General talk,
he can talk about all the rulings,
		
00:35:15 --> 00:35:17
			right as a just a general talk.
All right.
		
00:35:19 --> 00:35:20
			All righty just come a little Kara
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:28
