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