Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa Salatu was Salam
ala Rasulillah
wa sahbihi wa Manuela ladies and gentlemen welcome to the subpoena
citing nothing but facts live stream where we are today on
Tuesday. And you know what that means? That means we're sitting
with the amendment above all we know that when you read someone's
book, it's as if you're sitting with them
okay
when you read someone's book, it's like a samba with them
and today we're sitting with the amendment above Louis, and we're
two days away from month of Ramadan. Okay.
And some people are
asking for like a fifth we'll do some filming no problem. We will
do some stuff no problem with that. I'm just answering a student
of mine an old student told me they're in the Morehead cane
program at UNC I said
you know, you're gonna make me go into Safari and look that up.
You're gonna tell me what that means. Right? So
apparently, it's a science program. I'm like, I'm glad to
science program I thought do you tell me some it's a liberal arts
program. I was gonna say what was all the all those years studying
with me? What was the point? I must have been doing something
wrong but humbled. I know. It's a it's a neuroscience program
actually it's a science program but sure there specialist D is
neuroscience
so
why don't you come sit down to everyone given us their symptoms
and everyone who is here ready? And everyone who is ready to
listen to say not a moment above we give us the tafsir our the
villa him in a shape on the regime. Smilla Rahmanir Rahim
Yeah, are you a Latina m n? Mistake? met by four. For every
vowel preceding a Hamza, you need to know this every vowel that
precedes a Hamza. You hold it for four counts. Yeah. Uh, you Aladeen
and who in them and as where do they come? I do want luck on the
room, part of your children's and your spouse's as logical, logical
men whom I do what is I do hear me and I do is not always somebody
that is purposely against, you got to understand that it's not always
purposely against you. Okay.
Just could be something that has more harm for you than good. All
right, that's what I do, could possibly mean. And of course, the
spouse and the children, they do tug at your heart in such a way
anything that you love can possibly be against you, in the
sense that not that they're trying to be against you, but they're
against you in that they they may distract you they may lure you
into trying to earn so much wealth because you love them so much that
you may do something forbidden with your wealth. You may forget
about Allah subhana wa Tada because
you love to be around your family and we're not against that out
there. We're not against the love with a family party. We're not we
don't go the Buddhist route for example, where they're really
against all attachments. No fifth thought Hola. Hola, de facto
renessa Leah. We go with the fitrah of how Allah created us.
You go throughout all human history people love their family
man loves woman woman loves men. Husband, cares for wife and is
passionate about wife wife adores her husband and loves her husband.
All of what we see anything that's against that is a deviation from
the fitrah something's terribly wrong. In any society, any
community any situation.
Where the deviates from that, right Allah says we that we made
your homes a place of Sakina for you. Okay. What Jhala Bina Kumala
dorama and Allah places this Mohammed and mercy for you what is
Moa? Moa de means
it's Moa is your love for one another.
When things are good, Rama is when one of you is ailing. One of you
is ailing you have mercy for them. Alright, so my what is when when
things are theirs there are many different series on mo Adorama.
But one of them is when things between the spouse spouses are
good.
But Rama is one one of them is ailing. Right. So you don't have a
selfish relationship is not a selfish relationship. It's a
reverse you
You give more of yourself than you ask. So that's the nature of these
relationships and we see here how at least has gone to war with
these things. And the society don't always blame
the society the people who are against this stuff and who are
going that route they're also the victims of iblees don't forget
that and he bleeds does not victimized he does not do evil on
the earth with nothing that with with with with good people he does
with wholesome people he does evil on the earth through people who
have been victimized.
For now,
this is my What does theme or marriage theme or what? Did
everyone hear that? I think I'd hit a button or something that
gave us some beautiful lovey stars.
But
the
bliss does not work evil solely through people who are just choose
evil. No, these people, if you go back to every evil doer, you will
see that that person, you can actually look into their life so
much that you will find them victimized.
I'm telling you,
all these movements that come out. All right, all these movements. If
you go back to the person who started this, this this movement,
which we would now consider terrible, and we consider it evil,
they were victimized very badly. Okay, extremely badly. So Iblees
victimizes and then grabs onto the reigns of these people and tell
them the solution to your victimization is here, okay? The
solution of your being a victim is this philosophy or that
philosophy. And then that philosophy, that idea that moral
view is actually worse for society. So the Marxism didn't
come out of nowhere, it came out of abuse of the rich over the
poor, there's no doubt about that.
All of what you're seeing today on about
in the in the field of destruction of family, probably get could
trace it back to abuses. But then again, at the same time, people
usually find the evidence they want. If you want to find an
evidence, do you know this is a pretty interesting this thing is
with the Malaysian Air, aircraft that disappeared.
It's interesting, because all the evidence is so many different
evidences. But at the end of the day, both their different sides
come up with concoct theories,
using the same evidence, but they want to see something differently,
right? They want to see it differently. Right? So one guy,
one of them said, Well, it's a Russian, it's possibly a Russian
plot, like the Russians took down this plane. Right? They took it
down, they redirected the data, of where the plane looks like it's
going and instead of directing it up towards them, they made the
data look like the plane went south. Alright, fine. You know
what destroyed his theory. What'd you think it destroyed his theory?
They found plane debris in islands in the South. Right? So that
should end his theory, right? He said, No, of course, if the plot
is to make the plane look south, clearly, they're the ones who
would have planted the debris, right. So.
So unless that plane comes out and speaks, no one will ever know.
Right? So that's the idea here. When you want to have a
conclusion. You oftentimes can find the evidence and that's why,
and that's only where all the evidence is dandy. When all when
evidence is cutely explicit, then no one can discuss it, then
interpret the reinterpretation of explicit evidence is not
interpretation, it's deviation. It's extremely important line to
put in and this is why some people said, Listen, if we have four meth
hubs, and we believe the meth hubs can differ totally opposite
directions, right? Like crab one says haram one says hey, that,
that's totally opposite, right? So
they say well, why can't the religions be different methods?
Same thing said no, because med hubs interpretation exists on
equivocal Vaani speculative evidence evidence that could be
discussed. The language is not firmly one way. Okay?
There is no interpretation on explicit clear cut the evidence.
There's no interpretation on it. Okay. So that's any interpretation
on that is what we call a deviation.
So ALLAH SubhanA wa Ivanov best says this revelation from Allah
Oh, people who believe from your spouses and from your children are
enemies to so be careful. What does this mean? How old are you
gentlemen and the maca Islamorada a new hedgerow el Medina, Femina
home as well Jomo. Hola
To whom you've been, I bet says this is revealed, of course in
general for all people, but in specific.
There are a group of converts in Mecca. They wanted to make the
hijra, but their spouses didn't say which one husbands wives and
their children, stop them. Stop them because they either told them
not to go or they
they stopped them meaning like through sympathy, they couldn't
bring himself to disturb his wife and kids or husband and kids.
And go off to make the Hijra Wakarusa. Birna Allah Islamic come
for Allah knows with Allah for erotical Falcao Okay, so now, he
gives some more evidence, he says that the family were not Muslim.
So they said, the family said, we put up with you being Muslim, but
we can't put up with now you make making hijra, right.
So when you got family, you really need to
what you cannot do is disobey Allah for the sake your family.
That's just the simple rule is That's how simple it is. That's
where it's a fitna. It's not a fitna in
except if there is a clear prohibition that you will do. Just
for their sake. What Tada cool Hirata they left off Alhamdulillah
Tarraco. Fell Ahmadi past tense verb Indra Mfold be so it's
monsoon we put a photo on my phone meet Tara qu al Hirata
Okay, fuck Allah Tala. For the room do not know but beware of
obeying even your closest kith and kin, and Your most Beloved, in
what is in matter of obedience to Allah subhana wa Tada.
We're in to Alpha waters for our top federal Vennela Rahim her
female ACOM Oliver Walla Walla, new herget for either Hajj or
Alladhina Saba coo Bill hijra, aka the fatty who fit Dini and your
club XO Jetta who felt the hillford dini?
Him and you octopus Oh, Jetta who Oh ALLAH who Alladhina sabato Anil
hijra, this happens all the time. You got a soft spot for somebody
someone's pulling out your your friends circle, your parents, your
family, and they weaken you. They stop you from doing something that
you want it to do. That's good. Here he says, the next verse says,
forgive and let go. Okay, ALLAH is forgiving. Why? Because these
people finally did make the Hijra. And they come in and all their
friends. They're now advanced. They have knowledge. They've,
they're advanced in the dino.
So now, these people they turned back on their family, they angry
with their family. And this happens. Every youth that starts
to come into Islam, even adults, they start coming into the deen
they start advancing but they're still weak. They get reeled back
in by their stronger family. Right? Then time passes, and they
see that all their friends have advanced beyond them. Right? So
what do they do they turn on their family with anger. You're the
reason that I'm not able to do it and he goes around and talking to
everyone It's my mom. It's my wife. It's my husband it's this
it's that they're this they're that he hates them so much because
he sees that they're the truth of the matter. You will always have
obstacles you are the one who's weak that's the truth so forget
blaming them and get busy strengthening yourself okay
they're doing what they're gonna do they're not going to change you
strengthen yourself
don't be angry with them and Allah says in tough one tough just fall
Oh overlook it Forgive them let it go okay so how the human a calm
I'll early well well I'd like when I'm you hedge it for either hedge
or Alladhina psychobiological fatty who fit Dean him and new
club you know Jetta who were well at the WHO Alladhina Babu Anil
hedger. He is now angry with his family. It was now they're the
ones who stopped him. Right? Don't be upset with them. You are the
one who was weak strengthen yourself with Eldad.
People really this thing is not going to come quick. strengthen
yourself slowly with ODOT. I can tell you there many people they
said they swore from here on in. They're going to pray 200 Every
single day from here on in. They're going to facet every
Monday and Thursday. From here on in. I don't get what I'm doing on
my site one just don't do these streams go to ODOT the system of
ODOT is anything that
You could reasonably do it with ease. But you'd never miss it.
Without realizing it, you're going to be strong. Give it a year,
you're a different person, and you don't even realize it. And what's
the good about not realizing it? There's no Keba. Right? Whereas if
you were to, let's say heavy was to go and get personalized,
perfect lessons, and learn, and do a bad for a month and come back,
or two, two months, let's say three months, four months, you
totally transformed, right? You surpassed all of us. Come back and
you look around at the guys that you used to chill with. They don't
know anything. They don't know Arabic, they've never had done
what you did. You can have Kippur. That's why the slow and steady
growth has its value too. Okay. And the way that you do this is
small but consistent bits every day. That's the system of a rod
that the automat have produced for us. Okay. We're in LA Hey Kobe, he
Fidel Hijra lamium. Phil Carly.
Wala mu C. Boom, because Amara Houma la Zoda blah for animals was
suffering. So now those people who held you back in the past, they
now have come to make Hijra as Muslims, but they're the one who
stopped you. Like imagine that? Imagine you didn't make the Hijra.
Because your mother and your wife and your daughter they sort of
sympathy ganged up on you. And stay, stay stay. So but you are
weak, so you stayed.
And then what happened? You miss bed, you miss a hood.
Right. And now you go to Medina and your friends, their bed that
is that they're the people attended beds, they were there,
they have stories to tell. And you see they're changed. They're
transformed. They're better than you know, they've worked on
themselves. They prayed with the prophets that I send them every
single day, five times a day, for three years. And you missed out on
that you are going to be angry, no doubt about that. Right? Allah
says
don't blame them, then your family finally can okay now we're mostly
now after I miss bed I miss
just have supper with them. And Allah says winter food with us for
what's up through
it was Alaska.
The weakness is weakness and realizing that the people out
there, we're doing things that is the will of Allah subhanho wa
Taala the fact that they're attacking you and not even
attacking you, they're coming at you, when you are weak. That's
also called that of Allah. There's a wisdom in this. There's a reason
for this.
Now it's your job to find the reason. Well, one reason is you
were weak. Okay, so I strengthened myself but there's still going to
be other reasons. And other benefits behind this.
The benefit that Allah brings out the world does not only come out
in good ways, in nice way, so comes out sometimes in tough ways,
bad ways.
You got to look like a pearl diver for that benefit. We'll call our
thought in ESL Neza Latvia, alphanumerical SJ specifically,
this verse was revealed for medic for alpha had been medic.
Canada Lin, well, well, I didn't worker in the era DeLaGarza
backhoe la he were a cuckoo. He had a big family. He had a lot of
kids. When he would want to go out for battle. They would cry to him
and they would soften him. We'll call elements that honor who
you're gonna leave us. You go and you die. You go and you get your
arm cut off. You go on you go blind in battle, what are we going
to do? Right?
Fire up,
cola home where you came, he wouldn't he would get soft. For
them. He would sympathize for them. And he would stay
and zeal Allah in them. And as well as your combat, I would love
to come I do one lakh. Now why is this? Haram? Because if you don't
go to battle,
if everyone doesn't go to battle, then the enemy takes over the
city, right? And then you lose everything. So you have to go to
battle.
Men have to go to battle. Men have to fight. Because if you don't you
lose everything. So you're not going to go to battle because
maybe something bad will happen to me and we'll lose these two kids.
Well, if the enemy takes over, you lose the kids. And you right and
everybody, right? We all lose. That's why go into battle fighting
is fought.
In many circumstances. Like if you generally have a country, you have
to have an army and that army has to be pushing out. Can you
possibly have a business that doesn't do reconnaissance? I think
Walmart is not out there. Having a whole division all
All they do is study the competition, right? When you have
a country, that's you have to have reconnaissance. They've got to be
studying the ups and downs of every single nation and they got
to have agents in every single nation that has any value. And
other nations that are weaker. You just send someone like once every,
you know, Blue Moon to see if there's anything developing there.
But do you have to? Do you want to compete or not? If you're not
attacking, you will get attacked. That's a simple reality of life.
If you're not earning money, someone will take money from you.
But you're they're taking money from you anyway. But your company
wants something from you. Everyone wants something from you.
Question is who are you taking money from lawfully, but you got
to be earning?
Good. So be be humbly him a year Comala terracotta? How are our
children and our spouses an enemy to us? Because they pull out our
heartstrings to leave off acts of obedience.
And here's a message. Okay, here is a message to those. It's not to
be harsh. It's not to be mean. But it is a message to those who are
those
who disappear. And there are guys, I have to say, Okay.
There are guys, they get married.
And they disappear. Okay.
They get married and they disappear.
And what goes on with these guys? That's the question.
Yes, I understand you, you you guys, you now have
responsibilities. But at the same time, this may be coming out from
you. For you. This is for you. You're somebody who you're all in
the masjid all the time.
You were doing good.
You're doing your thing. You got married? You had one kid? You're a
zero now. A complete shut out. Right? Like, okay, I have to care
more. I think it's fine. So everyone else has to
be these those guys. Be careful. Be very careful
to soft.
And it's not like you're gonna go be harsh and angry with them.
That's exactly what this verse is saying not to do. But it's saying
Be strong.
Right? Allah has hook community has rights. You know, if you're
this community that we're in right now,
if it's not an all hands on deck, who's going to do it, there is no
killer for doing this. There is no assault on doing this for us.
Okay. There's no assault on doing this for us.
We got to all do it. And you're sitting at home being served by
everybody else doing the work. And you're coming just rolling up in
the message and sweats. Right? Because, oh, I have to be home.
For what? Oh, I have a baby. One baby. One,
you're stressed? Now, we got to tell you that there's a limit?
Like, where is the limit? Where is it justified to be absent? Right,
there is a justification. But that justification is going to come
around from the
like from the gym. Where if I need to if there's any fuzzy borders?
How do I know? I know the fuzzy border the limits of the fuzzy
border by going to asking around, right ask around.
And you see tons of people who got one, two and three kids, and
they're still contributing members. They're benefiting
themselves. Right? So you don't want to be an outlier. Be in the
area where it's understood. So there are there clearly are going
to be some times in life where you're stuck at home. Right?
But you go around and ask around see what everyone else is where's
that measure? Where's that bell curve? Everything has a bell curve
right? And that's where you're justified or not justified.
But don't be that guy as chocolate while he says he's to be that guy.
Oh, don't leave me and she doesn't leave and he stays home but by the
way there are some times it's the opposite.
The wife wants to do stuff the guy's a bum. It happens trust me.
Right It happens that I've seen it
and by the way, it's increasing. We got to mop up the guys the guys
got to be mopped up
I'm telling you some of these guys they are material a secular mind
minded and they want their wife to just work and and look pretty for
parties. This is this guy's a stray
straight and that I'm telling you I've heard many times a woman
comes up I really want to go my husband well let me write some of
those women are strong. They say listen, is this this or you're
fine another wife, right? And other women, they get weakened.
They get so this applies for husbands and wives for wives too
if we're going to be fair about it.
Okay
okay
Nima, um welcome hola to confectioner. Allah says, there I
do. And then he says fitna
that do pushes you into what is forbidden the fitna from what is
recommended, okay.
Bella DEVAR was shown on camera. So the I do part the enemy part is
it moves you from obligations, and you don't do your obligations and
you do prohibitions, but the fitna part is that it stops you from
advancing it with no effort. Things that you don't have to do
but they're good deeds to do. Okay.
Bella walk to bar will show hold on alacra yaka OB suburbia L in
San Phil avala M, woman l headquarter now what it haram.
Okay.
So, if you're wondering, Am I Is this legitimate reason? Am I
living?
Legitimate legitimately in the sense that I my balance between
home and work? Is sound and valid? And is correct and good? Right?
Ask around. That's the right way. There's no set answer for this,
right? Ask around the people that live in your time in place, and
see if it's reasonable. If the guys laugh at you at the table,
right? You know that you're, you're in excess? You're in
excess?
I can't give much advice to the women. Right. But I would assume
it's similar. Right? I'd love to prefetch. But my husband doesn't
like the alarm clock. Well look at what the other women said, they
give you a look, right? Because
this, that's where these fuzzy boundaries are determined
by your peers. And that's where again, it goes to this theory that
I have in that I believe in that fundamentally human beings are all
the same. Right? Fundamentally, people are the same. And you got
eyes, you got ears, you got feet. All right. So if if I'm doing
something, and I have if I have an excuse not to do something, I
should pass that excuse around floated around some people and see
if it's a valid excuse. Okay, so
But keep in mind when tafel what's us for What's Up federal, if you
have family that's weak,
or they're on the other track of things, do not make your path of
Dean a reason to be angry with them. Or the feeling that they're
holding you back or reason to be angry with them.
Okay,
I'm gonna Bessie is our consultant and he's telling us that an
earthquake just hit Paxton
All right, after we finish this segment, we'll go into that
telephone sir, I
was asking about it did do a check it did. There was a massive
scholars no doubt about that he has, if you want to know about
like seeking aid, and he does dabble in both sides between
between the Maliki method, and between the
I was guess you can say it's a miss Salafi methodology. So that's
why you may get two different
you won't get one message from him. He dabbles in both also. But
I can't say anything negative in the sense of like so that that's
something like we don't really do that. We just stick with one of
the methods. But he
goes beyond that. But I can't say anything except that he's a
massive Adam. And he
also he has all the signs of like a righteous scholar upon him, but
his method is his method. Right? And we don't go by that method.
Right? Oh my gosh, he's saying the earthquake is over seven. We're
gonna read it right now. And this is a big biller upon them, but we
will finish this and then we'll we'll go straight into that. Well,
Allahu Endo. Algernon Azim you're What do you think you're getting
when you soften towards your family and kids?
Of course, you're doing it for a reason, right? You want them to be
happy so that you can be happy. But Allah saying Allah has a
greater reward
because you can't control the forces that affect your family.
All right. Only a login
If you're close to Allah, you're near to Allah
there he will take care of those things for you and your family
will be even better.
There'll be even better
call about the home lemma that God Allah will add water at the color
fee min let somebody noticed that he says when he mentions and
enmity there's some of them are an enemy to you. He said from them,
so not all of it from them got caught in the middle as well as
you can from your wives and your children or your spouse's and your
children. There's an enemy the colonially so bad because not all
of them are your enemy. You will find wife and kids who support you
in all your work good. Well, me it could mean however, when he says
in the mountain welcome hola confectioner. When he says that
they are fitna, he says, All of them are fitna. Why, because
clearly man loves woman, woman loves man, husband and wife love
each other, you love your kids, not a single person doesn't love
their kids, and their wife or their husband, otherwise you
wouldn't be married to them, and you'd have the kids with them. So
not all of your spouses are against your advancement in the
dean,
or in whatever it is that you're trying to advance on.
But all of them will busy your heart.
Okay, you will spend a whole day right taking a kid out. And just
you ask yourself, what did we do today? We went to Six Flags.
And we spent about 300 bucks. Why?
So that you could see your kid smiling and laughing on the
elephants, or on the horses or on the motorcycles or on the teacups?
That's how much you love your kids. You just want to see them
laughing and smiling and having a good time. And there again, how
much do you do that? Again, it's something where you look at the
odds of the righteous.
Once a year, twice a year, right? You go out three times a year,
whatever, right? Whatever is the audit.
We're not saying
nobody could say that that is illegitimate. Just love your kids
and want to see them smile and take pictures and then go home and
edit the pictures and all this hoopla for this little creature
this big why? Because you love them. That's the fifth that Allah
had let the photo and Natalia is the fitrah of Allah, that he's
created us like this. So except the natural way Alaska Do you see?
Are you weird? If you do that everyone loves their kids, right?
We in Islam, we recognize that everyone loves their wife, every
wife wants her husband around every husband wants his wife
around, right? So this is fitrah. The question is what is the order
of the right balance between the two? Okay. And there is also an
extreme. Like, there was a man that we used to know was always in
Dawa always in doubt, he was opposite end. Right?
And I thought to myself, Man, does this guy ever go home? Like his
parents or his family is down with this? Well, no human beings no
family of shoes. They're not Superman's they're not Superwoman.
They're not super kids. They're regular people. They need that
their dad Guess what?
The result was not good. The family results and he would
oftentimes cite this
as long as you go model as a competitor, you would always cite
this and he would always go on the dough be out hours into the night.
It all the time.
Right? Like Wow, mom was different from all the other guys all the
other guys go home branch do they go home? Right?
You see him hanging out? Mustard late at night like this on a
weekday or whatever it is on a Saturday. What are you doing? But
the your gut feeling turned out? Right? The gut like wait a second,
this doesn't add up. All the married men are home with their
kids and their family tending to them. They need attention. Not
only they need attention, don't you want to give them attention?
Don't you enjoy this? This namah Allah gave you
but turned out to be right. family didn't turn out good. Maybe like
one or two
of the members of that family are straight or not straight, but like
their life is put together. The others now clearly an absentee
dad. No doubt about that absentee dad. So you got to really look at
both ways.
Okay, you got to look at it
both ways.
What can Abdullah animus Oh yeah, cool. Lie a colon Hadoken

buena Fajr al Hassan Al Hussain y la Hema, call me Sonny Marani yam
she Ernie way Arthur Ronnie, the prophets I sent him was given a
hook but his two little grandsons Hassan and Hussein were wearing
red, a red shirts, red shirts, and they came around playing and being
kids just being kids.
Toddlers, they're toddlers.
Vanessa Allah Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and
remember, the Prophet came down from the pulpit for hemella Houma
he lifted them both up for a while da Houma Bay Neha de and he held
them like this. Okay, and said Sadhak Allah, Allah said the
truth. Verily your wealth and your children are fitna in Nama and
welcome to come fitna.
Nevada to Illa heinous to be at EMC Yanni way off yeah through
Ronnie Phelan us but had Takata to Hadith you were referred to him I
saw these two toddlers gonna run around. In other words, I'm
paraphrasing like the meaning you're being so cute, so I could
not resist to come down and pick them up. See our messenger is
emphasizing here or demonstrating fifth threats. Hola Hola, Latif,
Uttara, Natalia, it's the fitrah of human beings to love your
children. If you have this natural inclination, okay. You just we
just have to know what's the boundaries. There are two
boundaries set, I Dawa and fitna, the Dawa is disobedience of Allah.
Right. That's a hard red line, the fitna a dotted red line, right,
where you're going to love them, but you're not going to decrease
from your drawing near to Allah subhanaw taala, you're not going
to you should not suffer much of a decrease, you may say. And by the
way, you can transform your intention. Your time spent with
your family can also be a type of support for them emotional
support, Dawa you putting together a person with a clean head, a
clean heart because they don't have emotional issues. They never
had an absentee parent. They were never felt ignored. Right yet at
the same time.
Again, I emphasize, look at what the others are pious people do in
the community and what their balances. And when it's
understandable that you're missing out there, you're not showing up.
And when it's under, when it's excessive, that you're not showing
up.
But duckula who must adatom fear that next ISS fear Allah as much
as you can have as much as you can you see that? It's fuzzy. It's a
fuzzy border, Allah says as much as you can. So we ask around and
we look at the other. That's why our religion is all about Sahaba.
Because I need to know what's the boundary, I need to know what's
the reasonable amount of time spent at home? What's the reason
why our time and money spent purely with entertainment? With my
kids? Like we have here some there are a couple parks in America
called Six Flags, Six Flags.
It's an amusement park, essentially, Six Flags refers to
Texas, right? Because they were under French. I think they're
under French rule, Spanish rule, American rule. Mexican rule. And
they have their own Texas flag. And there's one more other flag.
Yeah, so the Yeah, so the phrase Six Flags refers
To the Six Nations that ruled Texas. Yeah, Mexico, Spain,
France, United States, Texas has its own flag. I don't know what
the sixth one is. Maybe someone from Texas can let us know. But
there are a bunch of Six Flags all over the country. And Akena here.
They
they rent it out for Muslims once a year in the fall, like when it's
summertime has passed. Now Six Flags doesn't get a lot of people
showing up. So they give the Muslims a deal. And they're
publicly closed unless you have a ticket from Edna
Abdel Hafiz is telling us that the Confederate flag is this okay, I
didn't realize that. Okay, Confederate flag is the sixth.
Thank you. I'm
so sorry. Glenn. Tina is asking what is Samba snow Samba is
companionship is being with other Muslims being with scholars seeing
how they live, you get to see the details of how they live and the
balance of fuzzy border things. This is always it's up Allama
Sato, Allah has purposely put a fuzzy border because it's going to
change from time and place. Okay. So the, this six flag, they can
they rent this place out. And that's the day that a lot of
people go. And it's almost like because you're, you're being with
the whole model, everyone's praying there. And you just see so
many different modes. It's like a nice feeling. Right? So and that's
the time where, you know, the kids run around, and at least you're
there, they're not going to be surrounded by half naked people in
the summer. I don't understand anyone no practicing Muslim guys
should really go to Six Flags, or any of these beaches. In the
middle of the summer. You can come away with like, since there's no
excuse for that, there's no reason to do that. To go there in the
middle of the summer, when everyone's like half naked.
And then they're on water rights to and coming out wet. With
whatever closes left on them. You're gonna get sins for there's
no reason for that. So the econo has done this Muslim Day, which
I think overall general community has accepted us something good.
Right. And I see
all like very old Muslims there. And they're just there to slam all
the other side. It's all day the whole jersey, Philly, New York,
they all come. Alright. So they just happy to see all the Muslims
there. That's it.
And it it is a bad actually, believe it or not, to just say
salam to random Muslims. That's an act of worship, believe it or not,
Abdullah bin Omar used to walk around, go to the marketplace and
come back. And his family would ask him, your wood and market what
did you get? Or what did you sell? He said, No, I just went to Santa
to give some to the Muslims. Now there was a man a more Tinian man
who used to do that. Right. And he used to do it at traffic lights.
So he used to just like knock on the guys window in the Emirates.
This way back in the 80s. Right? When people would understand this,
he would knock on the window. Men would roll the window.
What can I do for you on Santa Monica? The move to the next
place? So that's it. That's the brotherhood that this message of
the prophets I send them wants to instill on on okay
giving
you give us 100 of your sins 100 sins are dropped 99 For the one
who starts it who initiates it.
For duckula must adatom Fuzzy border we're only going to know
this by Samba Samba to lochia Not samba of anybody Samba of those
who are at least praying fast and have some knowledge.
Okay.
It took Allah haka. Tokachi
fear Allah, the taqwa that he deserves. That area came down
first. And the believers were quaking. Fear Allah the taqwa he
deserves, and they tried hard and they sacrifice harder than Allah
abrogate it. abrogated that verse with half piety to the degree that
you can, meaning that's the new standard half piety as much as you
can go
with smell to listen and obey. Keep it simple. Listen to the
rules of Allah and obey them. Okay? You don't go asking many
questions just listen and do it as much as you can. Don't go into the
details and ask questions that the answer will just make things
harder for you. Okay, if Allah wanted he would have said it to
you. Right?
Well, I'm fickle. give sadaqa currently and physical give sadaqa
what are the subtle is going to cover up your mistakes do what you
can going to have mistakes you're gonna have incompleteness. Be
charitable in any it doesn't just mean mean by money. Money is the
greatest source
Money is the greatest charity, right? Do I want you to smile at
me? Or do you want? What would I rather have a smile or money?
Ask anybody. You want 100 Smiles or you want $100? What benefits
you more right?
Well, maybe you will close your hand. If so, be careful of your
enemy, which is greed. Show you fear your show. Your greed. Okay?
A common fear your greed because your greed is what's going to stop
you from sadaqa is going to make you commit sins, it's going to
make you do a lot of bad things. So Allah goes to the root instead
of asking detailed question, oh, can I do this? Can I do that? Go
to your greed, remove your greed, you won't have any of these
questions anymore. Remove your greediness of the dunya.
To put it a lot harder than hasna you'll die for everything that you
do for Allah to Allah, you will get much more double or more of
the reward and he will forgive you and Allah Shikou he always rewards
sicuramente rewards and he's Helene when you commit sins, he is
slow to judge to pass a judgment upon you and a punishment upon
you, Honey Island will have AB was shahada, Al Aziz would hacky he
knows this world and what is to come and he is most majestic
and most wise, so that is the end of the Tafseer of
sudo apt talk Robin.
And now next week we will be moving to the Tafseer of suits and
one after Kuhn. There is the I don't know if there's anything
better than a Muslim can do. Then I have a pile of books next to me
here. Just taking a nugget from each one of these books. A nugget
of a nugget of Syrah a nugget of Shema nugget of to solve a nugget
of Arcada nuggets nuggets here and there in an easy way that everyone
can absorb right and that's basically our business here All
right
our beloved Pakistan
we got to read this because
in the childcare in the Islamic school that we have
the
the
teacher there
she teaches the kids They're like two years old she teaches them to
say I love Pakistan
okay no
just now
yeah, this happened just now
let's see what's going on
it's not
it is not
affairs of the OMA but this is this is life. This is happening
right now.
A magnitude of 6.5 earthquake hits Afghanistan and northern Pakistan
and tremors are felt as far as way as India. The quake epicenter is
25 miles, which is 40 kilometers south, southeast of the Afghan
town of Durham, near the border
with Pakistan and Tajikistan.
Tremors were felt in Pakistan's capital Islamabad, Rawalpindi,
Lahore, Quechua, Sargodha Manuela to shower, go ahead SWAT Chitra,
oh dear Sangha and other districts of the Punjab. The quake was also
felt in middle school, godly. It also shook parts of India of the
Indian administered Kashmir and northern India, including Delhi.
A strong earthquake has struck Pakistan, Afghanistan and India.
The US Geological Survey says it was a 6.5 Okay, and it hit
Afghanistan's Hindu Kush region what exactly is Hindu Kush refer
to?
Pakistan's meteorology, meteorology, meteorology,
meteorological. Okay, a little bit of a tongue twister because it has
three O's in a row Meteorological Office measured the earthquake at
6.8.
There are no no reports yet on the degree of damage and the deaths.
Okay, so
Let's now
see what else is happening that so that was zero. There. It's too
soon to get any reports. But are the are there cities though? Okay.
Are there cities that were there Hindu Kush is a mountain region.
The nickname for weed is named after it. That's why I was
thinking like cush. What is, you know?
There there were varying reports about the earthquake's epicenter
and strength. But the US geological survey reported a 6.5
magnitude. There are no immediate reports of injuries, low
likelihood of damages. Okay.
Afghanistan is frequently hit by earthquakes, especially in the
Hindu Kush mountain range, which if it's a mountain range, I'm
assuming there's not a lot of, you know, civilian
areas, their civilian settlements and cities should say, I'm
assuming that
my assumption
more than 1000 people were killed and 10,000 homeless after the last
earthquake, which was smaller, it was 5.9 magnitude.
Okay. And that was June 22 of last year. Had a lot of them this since
like Afghanistan year really never catches a break
Okay,
no, no, there's not much right now, except that we know the
earthquake happened, obviously. But the damages pictures
photographs of rubble deaths and injuries.
Unknown yet.
Here's an interesting article. I don't know.
What unhurt is but interesting article by Sheryl Barnard, who's
an academic and an author. She says, I just I can't resist sort
of looking into this is America turning it to Pakistan.
Trump's looming arrest suggests his future doesn't lie in Florida.
Because now the President's getting arrested. I guess that
happened in Pakistan. Right. So that's why she says, let's start
with the game of guests the country. Oh my gosh, we can go and
offend all of our Pakistani friends. Well, let's read it.
In this nation, a former head of state announces his attempt to
return to power so his opponents set out to block him. In doing so
they revive past scandals and purported financial misdeeds
related to questionable campaign contributions and gifts from
foreign governments. Which country Am I thinking of? If you said
Pakistan, you would be correct. But if you said America, you would
also be correct. For the US this is a departure not because of
scandals, of course, from the country's inception, many of its
highest ranking political figures have had scandals.
Political financial sexual, all three. There were love triangles,
duels extra marital offsprings flings with interns, accusations
of corruption, all right. All going back to Alexander Hamilton,
illicit campaign finance to Ulysses S Grant.
And when his supporters diverted a tax on whiskey to the election
coffers. Okay. Well, I should point out wallets are funded. at
the presidential level, though, the maximum consequence of how to
go and budget. How are you?
How are you? at the presidential level, though? The maximum
consequence has been impeachment. All right, Johnson, Clinton,
Trump, all right. And Trump was impeached twice. He is sure he's
he's going to use that to be like I was the only
president to be impeached twice, or the pre emptive resignation of
the offender Nixon to jail. A president, however, was until
recently unthinkable no matter what one might feel regarding the
individual officeholder and this was a valuable safety measure
keeping antagonism and partisan rivalries within bounds. If
Trump's warnings are correct, and he's arrested today, it will
represent a new low in a chain of unprecedented prior boundary
violations, including an unannounced FBI raid on a former
president's home with guns drawn.
The guy has flipped everything upside down.
This time the consequences will not be pretty for once a red line
is erased.
It is gone for good no matter which party you belong to, who
will be next to Democrats hated and investigated Ivanka and Donald
Jr. Already the Republicans are zeroing in on Hunter Biden step by
step tit for tat, America is headed heading into the Banana
Republic zone. This is a great article. This is a great article,
I sent this article some friends. This is a great article, if you
ask me.
It's banana republic. I've never heard of this place. But she's an
academic and author. She's not some kind of drum, you know,
someone writing for the sake of drama like New York Post. To find
out what this entails. We need only to look at Pakistan. What
does it look like when your country is a banana republic? Here
in Pakistan? Oh, here in America, we have a political system that
regularly can Oh, I guess he's talking about Pakistan. We we have
a political system that regularly cannibalizes its leaders jailing
them, executing them or assassinating them with such
appalling regularity. It's true, every single leader with such
appalling regularity, rep regularity, that one wonders why
anyone would ever seek this high office in the first place. You
know, you're not going to have a good ending. Finally, you got the
guy. I mean, you got the coolest president in the world. In the
world, hands down Imran Khan. I mean, this guy, if you're going to
choose if you had a company,
and you needed ahead of your company, or a guide and represent
your company, you want this guy. The guy is like 70 years old.
And he looks great. And he looks fit. And he's strong. And he's
smart. And he says the right thing. Right?
You got rid of them. For whom?
Number you get you went to the UN. You know, when they all give that
General Assembly everyone's everyone's waiting for Imran Khan
to talk. Right? That's all people want to hear Imran Khan.
Now, I don't know about the details on the inside. I know the
old guard. They don't like him.
I'm with Imran Khan. If he asked me, I like on a quick snapshot.
I'm with Iran got
it show me something that he actually did that looks that was
terrible. I didn't see anything like that.
But let's see what happened. The explanation is most likely a
combination of factors idealism bordering on a savior complex that
every party looks at. They're going oh, we need a savior. Rather
than okay, you're going to be a president you're going to do good
things are going to do bad things. You're going to move on. No, we
need a savior. The addictive adulation of supporters who at
rally can easily number in the semi hysterical millions. And
that's true. Like all these countries. They don't support a
leader with a measured rationality. Right?
They
die for the leader. They love their leader, their leader can
never make a mistake. Right? It's hysterical. There's not a rational
judgment. Okay. Yeah, I think he'll be a good leader. And if he
does wrong, we'll move on from him. Right? No, there's not that
the push of relatives and hangers on all hoping to benefit, right?
Because there's so much corruption. There's so much to
benefit the lure of all sorts of personal licit and illicit
benefits. Take Zulfikar Ali Bhutto who served here we are it's like
poor countries having an earthquake. We're reading an
article that's railing on all their problems. But I mean,
there's no information on the earthquake yet. So when we get
that we'll read it but for now, this article is really good. Takes
Over karate will serve first as Pakistan's president and then
prime minister in the 70s. After being educated in the US and UK he
founded the Pakistan People's Party and oversaw the drafting of
the of the country's constitution. Ultimately, it was deposed in a
military coup arrested put on trial for involvement of murder of
a political rival found not guilty rearrested under martial law on
the same charge tortured, sentenced to death and hanged what
in the world? What is wrong with you?
Like you don't respect the office of the presidency clearly. The man
responsible for the for his demise was ZIL Huck, hold on a second. I
thought he was good.
I thought zeal Huck was someone like I always heard good things
was your luck. He's the one who did that.
To Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.
It's like
It's like boxing, or like, you know, like he defeated his own. So
then, you know, years later he knocked him out, and then he
knocked him out.
He became president via military coup in 1977. His turn in power
ended in a mysterious plane crash 11 years later, right believed to
have been caused by a bomb concealed in a box of mangoes. I
mean, come on.
Okay
You cannot be you cannot die on that. Hey, I know how to hide
this. Cover it and man is this like
grew and the minions right the minions would pull that up. Hey,
we have bomb cover and mangoes he'll never know.
Are you kidding? And you put it on the plane with him. You've ever
wondered why a box of mangoes has gone with the President? Was it a
plane crash or helicopter crash?
A mysterious plane crash Wow let's put a box of oh a secret service.
What do we have here? No everything's fine, interesting box
of fruit. I don't know why the president of our country needs
fruit on the on the plane.
Truly a banana republic if that's true, right. Later in 1999 Pervez
Musharraf became president through a military takeover, cementing his
position by jailing and initiating criminal proceedings against Nawaz
Sharif. Musharraf was the target of multiple assassination attempts
and survived them all. When his access against political opponents
became too extreme, and he was about to be impeached, he fled
into exile upon trying to make a comeback in 2013. He was indicted
by the country's high court for involvement in political murders,
including that of Benazir Bhutto, the daughter of Zulfiqar, so is
Zulfikar.
Bhutto is not a Sunni Muslim, right. But does she?
Yeah, yep. I knew about that, because I know people hated her
for that reason, right.
Okay, so.
So Benazir Bhutto is the daughter of Zulfiqar, and she was Prime
Minister twice, okay, and caused Musharraf to flee, to debate, to
avoid arrest. And that's another thing that's always fishy and
shady. Like when the kids of presidents become presidents. It's
like, this is like an unfair advantage. When I look at the NHL
now, right? Every other player is the son of another player. It's
like you guys have an unfair advantage, I guess. I mean, it's
an unfair advantage. But then again, I guess it's natural in all
fields.
If you go to a doctor of the doctors and hospitals, I bet you
50% their parents or grandparents were doctors, like they helped you
along the field. So that makes sense, I guess. But it's weird
when you claiming to be like a democratic society. And then half
the presidents are related to other halves to other presidents.
So this pattern of politics, that was a great summary of the drama,
and I'm sure she had a blast writing in that the bomb was
tucked into a buxom mangles. The pattern of politics can only be
described as dysfunctional. She's trying to be polite here. She
really is she's doing as much as she can. It operates on the basis
of disregard for the rule of law, direct violent attacks on
political rivals, manipulation of elections, intimidation of
opponents misuse of the judicial system, and frequent attempts to
kill political figures. Its current protagonist Imran Khan, is
certainly eccentric. All right, with marriages to a British
socialite, a journalist who later wrote a tell all about his
supposedly degenerate personal life. And now he's an ultra
Islamic Sufi alleged to engage in witchcraft on his behalf. What's
weird, that's very weird. He is currently
not how come we're talking about your country? Yes.
He is currently Did you know that your president was killed with a
bomb hidden under voxel mango? Anytime that you that a desi sees
a box of mango? Don't look at it right. Just make sure he is
currently limping along with his legs and casts and bandages from a
recent assassination attempt. I didn't know that. While efforts
are underway to arrest him for allegedly failing to mention an
illegitimate daughter in his pre election paperwork.
In Sharia
isn't Pakistan a shittier? Country?
So if it's an illegitimate daughter, What's the proof that
it's his daughter? She's the child of the of the bed, the bed in
which birth was given? Right? Right, Shinya. Pakistan's a Sharia
country ruled country. How do you know it's an illegitimate
daughter? We don't go by DNA and testing. Right? Or admission. But
I think the HANA fees may go by admission, Hana fees may go by
them. So then maybe that's the explanation. Anyway. Is there a
killing all the presidents we asking about Shetty i when it
comes to the illegitimate daughter, right. Selling gifts he
received from foreign dignitaries doesn't have lesser misdeeds. Khan
supporters, meanwhile, are encamped around his home to defend
him engaging in battles with police. I need to see that
footage. There are a number of obvious analogies to Trump.
Similarly, a populist do
and eccentric, but you can't say that Trump and Imran Khan are the
same and in other in their weight in their style, because one is a
garbageman and the other guy is not.
Right one's like respectable though no one's a garbageman.
Similarly, a populist and eccentric a person swirling with
allegations about his * life, financial dealings and his family.
If he is arrested today, it seems likely it will be because of hush
money paid to a * star.
Supposed to be rated G podcast Bitcoin. In response, the
Democrats have spent the past months attempting to take him out
of play through harassment in the courts, over comparatively trivial
matters. He is accused, for instance, of failing to properly
register all gifts he received during state visits. During their
time in office, politicians and diplomats constantly receive
gifts, really. So the President that goes and registers them, or
does he have like 1000 aides to do that stuff? Right?
These gifts are of varying value and tastefulness. And it's not the
task of the recipient to register them. That's a job for staffers.
That's what I just said, right? You're gonna have the President
Oh, I received a cup. Right. I received a bowl I received, you
know, that's what they give them like.
Yeah, Trump like stuff like they give him like some historic
artifacts from our country, you know, whatever. This is from
Queens, so and so and it's whatever you think the President
even, he's gonna look at it once and hand it off. In the case of
Trump,
the two most significant gifts he is accused of keeping the wants to
guess.
A set of golf clubs
and a life sized portrait of himself accused of keeping Yeah,
yeah, because he received my state gifts. And he should have
registered them and handed them to the country. That's what you do.
When you get a state. It's not for you. You're only given this gift
as a president, right? So you have to give it to the state.
Okay, back in the real world, both Trump and cons case is reek of a
double standard, with the target personality being scrutinized for
behavior that, for better or for worse, is widespread in the
political within the political elite. She's being very fair, as
for their sexual peccadilloes. In both instances, these relate to
instances incidents that are well in the past, and not all that
sorted. The Democrats have been scouring the nooks and crannies of
Trump's Personal life In a determined effort to prosecute and
jail him that's not equal treatment under the law. It's
political Gambit. Perhaps their campaign slogan should be make
America Pakistan.
For Pakistan, getting the insults today
but at least you're leading, you're ahead. And the Banana
Republic element of society no one competes with you. Meanwhile,
as the Republican Party heads to the 2024 election, its most
energetic slogan, inspiring hats and bumper stickers is Make
America Florida.
Under Ron DeSantis, Florida has charted its own course in recent
years and done very well. Its unemployment rate is at a record
low its budget surplus is at a record high and it has zero income
tax.
Elsewhere. Washington DC a mess California and utter mess New York
a mess Chicago a mess. These major cities are all sport a collapsing
infrastructure, potholed roads, pop up homeless encampments and
rampant lawlessness.
Maybe she hasn't
had enough? All right, Barack loafing. Wait, how long you here
for?
Okay.
So what I'm gonna do
right now, okay, and then I was late on Saturday.
Okay, so
All right, cool.
All right. Amid this urban blight, Florida appears to be a beacon of
hope. Its infrastructure as well maintain the streets are clean,
affordable public transport is state of the art crimes are low.
Unsurprisingly, corporations as well as private persons have been
abandoning ship fleeing their floundering cities.
And moving to the well run Sunshine State, the DeSantis
formula, no nonsense, Frontier America law and order.
individualism.
I gotta be honest, that like,
yeah, they say that he tortured Muslims and stuff like that.
That's true. We can't really deny that.
Right. Not only did this win him a landslide reelection, but it turns
Florida the Florida formula into the Republican vision of America's
future. He basically modeled it, he demonstrated it's efficiently
managed. It's pragmatic.
minimally interventionist focus on middle ground conservative
attitudes and values but strong on personal liberties sounding pretty
good to a lot of people. Whether or not Trump is locked up today
next year's elections. Could you check if Trump got locked up next
years or arrested? I don't think he got arrested but
look to be watershed moment. Next year's election will America
become Florida or Pakistan? All right.
It very interesting and I got to know what this unheard of what
this site is all about. First of all,
you know, people say Oh, but it's a it's a conservative site. So
that doesn't mean the facts are facts right, the analysis we can
also assess the analysis right. Clearly, she has a slant towards
towards George Florida, but if she was against Florida, would that be
neutral? Right, thanks. So
the mission statement about this organization unheard or this this
newsletter or whatever you want to call this news site? unheard.com.
As you may have guessed, from our strange spelling unheard aims to
do two things heard meaning
a massive like couse, H E rd, or heard, not heard like he ARD
unheard aims to do two things push back against the herd mentality
with new and bold thinking and to provide a platform for otherwise
unheard ideas, people in places, maybe we can make submissions to
them about to show you. We think this approach is more needed than
ever, societies across the West are divided and stuck. And the
established media is struggling to make sense of what's happening.
The governing ideologies of the past generation are too often
unquestionably defended or rejected wholesale. Okay, it's
safe and easy to be in one of the two of these two camps defensive,
liberal or angry reactionary, but unheard is trying to do something
different and harder. We want to be bold enough to identify those
things that have been lost, as well as gained by the liberal
world order over the past 30 years, but we strive
to be always thoughtful rather than decisive, we're not aligned
with any political party, the writers and ideas we are
interested in come from the left and the right. But we
instinctively believe that the way forward will be found through a
shift of emphasis towards community, not just individualism
towards responsibilities as well as rights and towards meaning and
virtue over shallow materialism. Okay, and they got
looks like they got a team of about 15 people here. Okay. And
Trump just paid off
lawyers to get away of course, he's been doing it for years now
this guy
Yeah.
Let's do a little bit of very quickly, very quickly. We'll do a
little bit of FIP on cm
unheard
it reported on the Pakistan
earthquake because that's how it started. And and then i
i saw this thing is America becoming Pakistan, and I couldn't
resist clicking on it right.
Now I couldn't Well, I have to say it was a good article
for buffs, I'm sure she she she had a blast reporting about that
mango thing. Oh, my goodness. No, she's an American academic
historian, political scientists. Something like that.
Right.
Box of mangoes.
Minions. I'm telling you the minions. If you saw that in a
Minion Movie, you it's a it's a kid's movie, right? Cover it up
with mangoes. Write
comments about people asking about correlations.
Or talking about the crimes of the people
your leaders you don't
know well, whatever it is. However people react is what their
situation is. If they react
with sub, it's purification. If they draw if they make themselves
draw near to Allah because of this. It's an increase in rank.
And if they go worse, and since it's punishment, that's how we
look at it right? And what's the causes?
Is the OMA of Islam catching a break anywhere. So the good are
being purified because they're
lives have been sullied by the wicked and the one ethics. The
wicked and the one Africa have made it really hard to be pious
right? And to be pure, so Allah purifies the pure those who are
trying to purify them with tribulations.
And for those who do the mischief and do an arm of the Muna 15 So to
the bucket of says they go around sowing mischief in the earth, this
is their punishment, you will never enjoy it.
The word soem it means to stop. Therefore the month of Ramadan is
a month of slowing down a little bit.
To stop, to pause to spend time cleaning our hearts.
That is the function of CME is CME.
Something that is inefficient
for we can't work and we're not making money anymore. First of
all, you can't work. Number two,
ask what is more important, your heart is more important to pause.
A community wide pause to all of us, recalibrate with the Quran is
more important.
And it's a longer bent longer benefit. And the only way to do
this
the only way to do this is to do it all together. None of us can
pause while the rest of the world is moving right? Take care. Misha,
good to see you. We need to pause altogether. Right.
No one's going to fast and pray at night for 30 months straight we
need the whole community to support us during this need to
know everyone's doing it.
There are three things we need to talk about the fast of Ramadan,
Kala is making up
missed days that had a valid excuse. CO Farah. expiation
explanations for days that you didn't fast without a valid
excuse. and fibia Vidya is payments given by those in certain
circumstances, most specifically, those who can never ever fast
can never ever fast. And we will discuss all of the things that
break the fast get.
The only days it's ever forbidden to fast or the days of eight. You
will you may fast on Friday, you may fast on a Saturday, you may
fast on nephila in any day, except the first show well, which is
eight. And then the 10th 11th 1213 of the ledger, which are the four
days of AIDS al Kabir, Al Adel Kabir or Adel Allah, what is the
most recommended data fast, you'll modify the ninth of the Hijjah.
And the prophets fasting was never systematic. Yes, he did put Sahaba
on systems, some Sahaba need this, they not to have needed this, but
some people need this. And amongst them the Sahaba such as, for
example, too fast. Monday and Thursday, are too fast the three
white days
which are the full moon and the day before the 13th 14th 15th of
the month,
or too fast every other day.
For some, so the Prophet puts some Sahaba on such systems, they
needed structure. But the prophets owned fast was not structured,
sometimes you fast a lot. Sometimes fast, very little speak.
Good.
Move it and take you where you need to go to
Ttn sorry, this is not only going to be saved on Instagram, it's
going to be saved on YouTube. And by the way, Spotify is all updated
by the way. It's all updated on Spotify. Yeah. What's Spotify?
Good question. We got to ask the team for that. Yeah.
Now,
when are we allowed? Let's now go to
the preconditions of fasting. Number one Bulu you have to be
the precondition of obligation is not obligatory upon you, until you
are bedded awkward. However,
it is obligatory when and causes. When you are mature, you are
saying physically mature means you pass puberty.
Your puberty is marked by the moment a boy releases *. He's
now a man. In the in the law. When a girl has hired
or gives birth, either whatever comes first, most likely it's
going to be height.
She is a woman in the eyes of the shadow, she is responsible in the
eyes of the Sharia. So that's Bulu Godhra, physically capable of
fasting by the testimony of a Muslim doctor, because anything
that has
to do with you being able to do something or not do something of
the deen requires a Muslim expert.
And that Muslim must be like solid, meaning he prays in fests,
and you don't see him doing public sins or having crazy beliefs.
Basically, just practicing Muslim that's it.
How that however, you're not obligated to fast if you're
traveling. Okay.
And of course, we said awkward. Now, what are the preconditions of
acceptance of
there are the preconditions of validity. We just mentioned the
preconditions of obligation. These things have to happen first,
before you're obligated, what are the preconditions of validity?
Your fast is not valid? Unless you are certain the month is there?
Isn't. You can't fast a day saying it's probably Ramadan, maybe it
is, maybe it isn't. Let me just fast. No, you must be certain. And
that certainty is derived by two ways. Either SHA Ben reaches
3939 30 days, which you know that the history month will never be 31
days. So therefore, Ramadan must be the next night, or
the moon was witnessed. The Crescent was witnessed by two
upright people, or a mass of people. And we go by anywhere in
the globe,
anywhere in the globe, but we're living in a time where the
communication is easy, right anywhere in the globe, some of
them have limited it to those who share a night with you or share a
day with you. Right. So they must share a portion of the night some
have made those limitations.
Others have even limited even more, which is local. Well, that
doesn't make any sense. Is New York local to us. Right? It's
Chicago, not local does in the moon sighting sense. So let's say
we can go by global, right. But whatever your tells you, it's
fine.
And the clearly now this brings up the awkward situation that all the
mosques 90% not say not all, but 90% they will go by the scheduled
the pre determined visibility calculation. Now I'll tell you why
this ends up being more of a thing than something else is that
it's like, I would say 98 out of 100 times the calculation of
visibility, not calculation of birth. There's two calculations,
calculation of birth and calculation of visibility.
That ladder one is almost always in line with actual moon
sightings. And we're far enough in the West and the moon. The knight
comes in the East first, right? That we always see. We're always
able to justify
with the moon setting. So we know for example, our Masjid the
tearaway starting Wednesday night, with or without us, okay.
Now, if you want to go by FIP, and you need a moon sighting, you will
98 out of 100 times you're gonna find one. There is someone in the
world. We'll see. We'll see it. Okay. Thank you very much. What
wrong kids. This is not mine. Ooh, I got a gift, a keychain. Lola.
Thank you very much. slove.
Okay.
Now
that is that that's the issue. That is the precondition of
validity. It's not valid. Unless you are certain the month isn't.
Number two, it's not valid. Unless you made the intention before Fajr
comes in. So if they tell you Ramadan is Thursday, let's say
it's tonight, and we see the moon, boom, there it is. Right then on
there. I make the intention to vest the whole month. How do I
make that intention in my heart? That's it. Right? If you want to
say it with your tongue just for the sake of it, you can you can
there's nothing stopping you. But you're not obligated to in your
heart, you made the intention. When do I need to renew this
intention every night? No. It's enough for the whole month. The
only time that you need to renew the intention is if a valid reason
occurs for you not too fast.
Okay, such as what I'm traveling, I'm sick, I have hide all the
reasons that are valid. All of a sudden, or after those those
purposes are gone. Those reasons are gone. You must redo the
intention. That's it. That's how simple it is. What are the pillars
of fasting, the pillars of fasting?
Are all negative. In other words, the things you don't do the
intent, you don't do it. It's in your heart. Okay. And the other
things are abstaining from breaking
The fast from first light, which is feathered until McRib, right?
abstaining from the things that break the so what are things that
break that's a very simple rule, fluid that reaches the throat. If
fluid reaches your throat, you broke your fast, which is that
fluid could come through your mouth or through your nose, and
even through your tear ducts. If it gets in like drops get in and
get into your ducts and make its way through throat your broker
fest. Okay.
So fluid gets to the throat,
solids
okay?
If it passes your throat and gets to your stomach in any way that a
solid gets to your stomach, you broke your fast.
Intentional vomiting, intentional vomiting, break your fast,
unintentional vomiting does not break your fast but purposely
vomiting. breaks your fast
if you gargle, if you use toothbrush, and if you use if you
rinse your mouth out, get
the club you're responsible to make sure the water doesn't get
you there. You should not gargle in Ramadan, you can rinse your
mouth out with your head down.
To make sure that the water doesn't reach your throat. Why
would you gargle in Ramadan?
The like you have a risk now? You're literally putting the water
in your throat. So don't take that risk. Can you taste food? If
you're cooking? The answer is you may taste the food. Right? But
it's discouraged. And you'd have to spit it out.
Okay, what else? What are you allowed to do? You're allowed to
rinse your mouth even just to cool off, you're allowed to use them as
Suek through the whole day in the Maliki school.
You are allowed to break your fests. Okay? Only on the day. If
you only if you leave before fetch.
If you're traveling, you must depart before fetch like the night
before, for example. So if I'm going to travel, and I gave this
advice to people were taking the MCAT.
Travel, you are allowed to travel for any Halal purpose in Ramadan,
and break your fast. So a brother told me I'm an impossible
situation, I need your help. I'm so happy about this because I
actually was able to help him out.
He says to me, it's Ramadan, I got the M cats. We're up here in North
Brunswick. The MCAT is going to be held in Atlantic City
at 8am.
So he's like, I gotta wake up,
have sold and drive two hours to Atlantic City and take the exam.
I'm like you are going to be shot. I have a better idea. He's like,
Am I allowed to break the fast for that? I said, No, you're not
allowed to break the fast for that. But I will give you a
solution.
It was this was the day before he's calling me the day before.
Right for the feds, right? No. So I said, listen, here's what you
do. You break your fast today. Okay, you pack your bags.
You drive down to Atlantic City, you check into a hotel
tonight. And guess what? Your traveler, you don't have to fast
tomorrow, right? You wake up, you get to sleep right up to the time
you have a hearty breakfast. Take your water, right? And you go and
you take your exam, he was shocked at the idea, right? That's why a
little bit of knowledge, you can really change someone's course of
their life. Right? So probably charge him a percentage of his
earnings for the next 10 years. Right? You would have failed that
MCAT if you had done your own thing of fasting, right? On the
day of driving two hours after solar, and then being exhausted.
So
if you if you're going to travel, remember, if you wake up and
fetcher has come in, you're liable for that day. You owe that day.
Okay, now,
if you get sick on that day, if you if your job put someone else
at risk on that day,
if you get hired on that day, then those are valid reasons to break
the fast. Now let's talk about each one of those.
If you get sick, you can break your fast what is sickness,
sickness? It's like it's it's there's machaca is hardship once
you've passed hardship into like excruciating pain. That is
sickness. Right? Like truly unable to fast I'm sick in the parlance
of all people I'm sick, right?
You may break your fast
but the moment you feel better, you have to stop eating.
So if I'm sick at one, I eat all the way to two
One Three and take medicine and take a nap. I wake up at 330 I
feel great.
You're not allowed to eat anymore because your excuses gun. So
you're not fasting and you're not eating? This is called inSec.
Neither are you fasting. Neither is it permitted for you to eat.
Right?
Alright, number two
just for the sanctity of the month.
Number two, you were traveling,
you arrived in the middle of the day.
So you had an excuse to break your fast. Now you're back.
You can't eat, you must observe him Second.
Second, or third example.
You're a bus driver, you're a surgeon, you're a pilot.
You wake up, you have some hood, you go to work. At work. You're a
bit fuzzy, you're not sharp. You're dizzy. Is dizziness, a
reason to break the fast? No, it's not, is not being mentally sharp.
A reason to break the fast? No, it's not. But in your case, you
can risk the lives of other people. can you possibly be a
surgeon who's not with it? Who's drowsy who's like, I can actually
hurt someone here. I can, you know, make a mistake in driving a
bus or riding a plane. You can hurt somebody. If you're a
breastfeeding mother, and you're fast will render you not being
able to breastfeed from like 1pm Because you're all dried up until
milk and that's seven hours the baby's crying seven hours, six
hours, five hours. That's hardship.
These categories of people there, they may break their fast for the
sake of the other person that they're endangering.
And that person
must now do kadaga Plus Vidya. They owe Kola, and they owe Vidya
because they didn't break the fast for themselves. You break the fast
for somebody else. You see the difference? It's very important to
know this.
Good.
Yeah, it breaks the fast. Yes, it breaks the fast. Yeah. Because the
if if if the vapor gets into the nose, but if it's at the other end
of the room, it doesn't make the vest only when it's coming into
your notes. That's why you can't sniff the hood.
Okay, but things that are out of your control such as the steamy
kitchen when cooking the steamy bathroom when washing the dusty
road or the rainy road that you're walking in the dust and in the
road and that stuff gets into your system, you're not accountable for
that. Okay, it's too much it's impossible to actually measure.
Or to avoid. What if I eat on accident and drink on accident?
Well, in the Maliki school, you are not guilty, but you open up
and you are observing insect for the rest of the day.
If you lose conscious or you faint, okay, or you have a bit of
insanity, then that is a reason to break your fast because when you
wake up you need sugar right away. What if I give blood donate blood
in the middle of Ramadan, you're you're doing something mcru For
the simple reason that you're putting yourself in a situation
that you will need some sugar
and you will make yourself sick, make yourself dizzy, any act that
you do where it's known. You will make yourself sick, you will make
yourself dizzy, you will make yourself thirsty. And then you do
become those things.
Your breaking of your fast for that sickness, sinful,
sinful
is not a valid reason. Because you made yourself sick in action that
you didn't have to do that was by all measures, it will cause this
problem. Okay.
All right. What is Kabbalah? As we said it's one day
for every day that you missed with a valid excuse. However, if a year
passes and you didn't do that day, you owe 50 On top of that,
remember if you broke your fast for the sake of another person,
okay, then you owe called up plus video as well. If you broke your
fast by disrespecting the month, or an interpretation that's
absurd.
Good. Then you owe Kufa.
Kapha is feeding 60 Different for Muslims. One two handfuls of food,
which is the same amount of money as the fifth 12 bucks Vidya is one
Kapha is 60 of those, and it must go to a poor man
Islam and you may put
us a Joaquin. Our keel is an agent who are those agents the Masjid.
Every Masjid you go to that has
that accepts Zika you write the envelope or the check Vidya. You
go online, you make sure that it's clear that this is fibia. Okay, or
cafardo it will go the way the master will go and distribute it
to poor Muslims.
Yep.
It's up to him if he wants to pass or not.
Safety, the father just gives finian
but doesn't pass. Just be incredibly. We need an answer from
the doctor too fast or not too fast.
We need an answer.
Then that's the problem the first place.
You need to have a Muslim doctor who fasts, whatever you're
feeling. We can't base it off. Because he's saying however you
feel that they know. First he's asking the wrong doctor in the
first place. And if the doctor if the if the if the man has a
history, every time I fast, I get really sick. So he's now linked
and he knows I cannot fast. I've experienced this myself. Then he
pays 15 Then that but he needs a Muslim doctor to confirm that for
him.
To go, yeah,
I didn't I missed it. Yeah.
No,
no, the fifth year did never accrues over time. For example, if
you missed you didn't make up your fast for one year. You didn't make
your fasts for two years for three years. For four years. The fifth
year never adds up. It's only ever one cut that 1/5 year
are my thoughts? No, you can't do that during the hook but we're
adults.
It's makuu is discouraged and it's not respectful for for jomashop
The definitely not for class. It's my crew to do that.
It's not up to do that, I should say.
Okay.
Now, when you Oka Farah, you also owe the Kudla. You also owe the
day. So you have to make up the day. And you have to pay the
cathedra and you have to make Toba and the video this year is
calculated as $12 a day. Some masajid have inflated it to $15 a
day. But you can go to the store shop right and buy $12 worth of
food that will make a handful of food and that food can just be
rice
braid that bread and dates doesn't have to be me
Alright, that's enough for that quick revision of cm. And let us
now
Yeah, who's Should we send the video to your local community has
priority your local community takes priority of receiving the
video
but if you send it abroad, it's acceptable for sure.
Okay, is it better better to do another ombre for a deceased
parent or two off in their name Alma of course is stronger than
tough. So off is just part of the two off is of course a good deed
but on a stronger
I thought video could be just feeding three to four people fit
DIA is feeding one poor Muslim, Kufa is 60 different poor Muslims
use it will be easier for you.
What if I continuously commit major sins kind of go to heaven if
you repent every time and you're just weak and you fall into it
again, but you always make Toba?
When one takes an opinion from another method, why does the other
Mufti from the method say Don't tell me if you are from another
method or not take my ruling and go away.
If you are from another method, why are you asking that person in
the first place? So, the
10 Fear is permitted in certain circumstances. Like I was praying
wrong my whole life according to this method, but according to
another method, it was valid. So we say okay, you don't have to
make up your prayers then because it was valid in another method.
Do nicotine patches on the skin break the fast of Ramadan? I heard
that they do not energize the person if they are energizing
forces, then they would break the fast but I but from what I know of
them, they are not energizing.
And so therefore I heard that they are not they do not break the vest
but you can ask other people who give fetter on such things.
Do Muslims run away
from their prunes now let's stick to fast and questions today.
I broke fast when I was a kid but had reached the puberty age how do
I make up for it so you must make up the day and you must pay the
figure. Many people have a lot of failure to pay
in installments just like you pay a mortgage payment $100 A month
$50 A month $300 A month just like you'd make a car payment okay some
people have like months and months that they purposely did not fast.
Okay, so
make installments
if you die it's a debt against you that your kids should pay for you
right if you die it should be taken out of your inheritance
first
I'm going to take this one question has nothing to do with it
says someone believes that Jews suffered the Holocaust almost
suffered double that now I think that we will suffer some things
but it will not be as bad because of the Rama that exists in the OMA
because of their a badass their saw their hand their dua, the
salah on the prophets of Allah ease and we will have tribulations
right. But it will not be as vicious I don't believe because of
the Rama that exists and that comes down due to the solder heat
we have in our OMA
okay. Is it x an accepted difference of opinion? Let's see
what Buckler is same as Steve Arthur No forget to so. We don't
want to do that right now. It's a long topic
I have a phenom for all the facets I have missed do I have to pay 50
each year No. It only occur accrues against you once even if
you missed for 10 years you owe from 10 years ago you only owe one
failure
remember
what about saliva? No. Saliva isn't you're not eating saliva if
you bring it out of your body.
Of course it's snowing it does this but if you were to spit and
then lick it back, you've eaten saliva right? Who does that right?
But technically that's what it would be but if it's in your mouth
didn't you haven't eaten it's already just it's made in your
mouth. How do we improve ourselves on Amazon but keep it up? You will
never be able to keep
up what you're doing is not meant for that.
Okay, but if you keep some of it is enough it's not meant for that
it's meant to be an intensive it's meant to be that this was never we
can't ever repeat this. If you can keep a little bit of it is enough.
Like one extra deed that you do. Can you explain Vidya again okay
Vidya is in fine is an amount of money or food given to a poor
Muslim when you can never fast such as an old person who can
never fast he owes 30 fitness or a person who has to break his fast
for the sake of another person. Such as a wet a breastfeeding
mother if she fast her milk will go dry or a bus driver if he
fasts. He's gonna have an accident or a surgeon who will make a
mistake in surgery he owes he has to make a bit fast and pay for it.
Yeah, because he's breaking fast for another person. Or it's for a
person who
broke their fast for a valid reason sickness travel,
accidentally eating or drinking, things like that.
That is what we call fear.
Is there a point to wake up if we can't pray to hedge it during when
we Oh called up? You can pray called up during to hedging and he
will have more reward because cola is fired to hedger is nephila.
It's the time that matters so you can make up your color up prayers
in the tagit time. Also if you need to do is Takara you're
allowed to do a staccato when you Oh called up. So I would still
jump on it. Jump on that DADGAD never miss that opportunity.
You cannot combine intention between a foot and a nebula. But
you can combine multiple nebulous in one intention like to Hades
msgid is to Cara and Sunnah Avila all in one. Right? If you go to
the masjid, you can combine all those it's Takata it's a it's a
masjid greeting of the mosque. And it's the Sunnah of the hood.
Right?
it you can combine many nephila intentions in one.
Alright.
toothpastes? No it's my crew here responsible if it goes out into
your throat
the Hanafi opinion according to Abdulhadi says that accidental
eating does not break the fast. The Maliki opinion goes with that,
that it does break the fast but it's not sinful because the
command of fasting is partly in the Quran. And that one proof
Allah has given you food and drink right? Atomic Allah was a cook is
from a one solitary Hadith. So a lot I believe that's that that is
the logic but they what they mean what the way Matic understands
that hadith atomica Allah suck. Allah gave you a food and drink in
Ramadan is that you're not sinful. That the Hadith does not say that
you don't owe a day. It just means you're not sinful. You did not
fast right? You didn't fulfill the fest. So you're not sinful.
Shall I be rewarded for your hunger and thirst?
But you have to make it up
someone told us people living in non Muslim community that's
impermissible feed the most non Muslims you are allowed to feed
non Muslims suddha sadaqa but not fit the Orca Fatah or Zika Fidelia
go Farah
Zika must go to poor Muslims
does the time when it's obligatory for children to vast differ
its menstrual cycle or *. That's what it is. And if it's
abnormal if the women of the community are the ones to decide
abnormality if I'm not mistaken, it's under the age of nine
then you go to the women of the community and if they say no this
happens to all of us
then it counts if it's the if they all concur that no this is an
abnormality, right getting hired at this age is abnormal
then it doesn't count as hate she waits till the age of nine but
double check that but I'm telling you that there is something
there are age limits nine and 70 for the opposite see keeps having
hide after 70 Right then seven days like the cutoff
do late release pills break the fast no they don't as long as you
took them before fudge right? Late release pills do not break the
fast because what is the difference between that and fruit?
Right isn't protein slowly break down? Right it's also slow right?
Can I pray tomorrow? If I have Miss Fudd prayers? No you cannot
you go to the masjid you go to the side and you pray your own kuduk
I don't know how much Vidya I owe and how many days I owe you have
to make a massive over estimation so that you're absolutely certain
that you
that you covered the amount of days can is Vidya have to be
separate from Zika of course Zika is one obligation fit is the next
right they're totally different. Okay for menstruation can you pray
pay video No. You have to do cut up for menstruation pregnancy
breastfeeding you oh come up for that.
You cannot just do fit you can I invite non Muslim parents to pray
Tada we and Ramadan note to observe only there is no validity
of Salah without Islam without the shahada, so you may observe them
to invite them to observe the salah to hear the Quran but not to
pray and if they do they break up the rows right there they a Kapha
in the middle of a row he breaks up the row
Okay, I have made up for my fast Will I still need to pay figure if
yes if you made them up one year or more late in other words, the
next one was on came and you hadn't made them up then you made
them up the year after that, then you owe video.
Or if you only broke the fast for the sake of somebody else like
like your baby breastfeeding or you're a pilot or a surgeon or a
nurse or whatever that you were you broke the fast for the sake of
somebody else. Then you Ophidian
okay
I have many fast to make up so you lay 50 At once basically no. You
if you didn't you if you didn't make
make up the fast for a year then for the it's cut out plus video so
say I have four years for fast I was sick in 2020
I didn't make up the cut up
until 2025 No five years have passed doesn't matter I owe now
for UCLA and forfeit yeah
all right I'm gonna vent to how do I get rid of stay away from
anxiety and depression make much smaller on the profit and keep the
company of people good people optimistic people keep their
company they will inshallah impact on you will get you out of that.
Alright, so que Lodi is this is this a Lodi Sr? If so, does that
answer the question K for Mac? You can put your questions here on on
okay
best you ought to make and Ramadan is of course Allah whom in Nica
for one to Ebola 451 I know I said it quickly and it means Oh Allah
you have awful awful means he protects and for gifts is the
meaning of both.
Right you love awful so give us awful.
It has the meaning of protection and and not only forgiveness, the
highest level of forgiveness means is even erased from the book of
deeds. That's awful.
Steve says a lot of students of gait gait Dean go into different
methods to ask regarding different positions. I see one hundreds
doing that. Why do they do that? If I can't handle a pinion I will
go to a different school. Yes, if the opinion is not possible for
you hardly
fee of practical for you. Then there, we have different opinions
for a reason. That's the reason, like much hardship. But if it's
just for whims, I love the Hanafi school when it comes to marrying
women without a Willie. But I don't like it when it comes to
lobster. And you're just using your whims. We say you are in the
valid, it's valid what you're doing, but it's not a good
practice. You're strengthening your desires and your whims.
Right. And eventually the people who do that, they they're not
going to
it's gonna be something that
their whims are going to become too strong. It's not good to
follow your whims.
You will eventually go deeper. Okay, none of the methods give me
an outlet. Well, let me go look for the weaker opinions. Now. Let
me look for a modernist opinion. Let me go to look for some
crackpot opinion. So where does it stop? That's a question. Such
should stop at machaca if it's just a little bit of a hardship,
it's okay. If it's a great hardship, then fine go to another
method. But that's it. Not wins. Do we need to make incentive for
the whole month?
You make the intention for the whole month the night before
Ramadan and you Oh, that's it and you only renew your intention if
you broke your fast
what can those who are new to Islam do during Ramadan?
They can do whatever they're able to do to keep the company of
Muslims is the best thing for a new Muslim hanging out with other
Muslims. You want to get physically fit hang out with
people Giuk join a joggers club hang out with them you can't keep
up alright bow out keep showing up though. Keep showing up one day
you'll do exactly what they're doing. You failed to keep up with
them no problem fail step out like many Muslims come in they see the
the Muslims like can't keep up with all this so much Salah so
much Dean. Okay, go home.
Like what did your shake? What did that shake one time? He said go
get a Pepsi and watch a movie, right? Just just go get out. Relax
yourself. Do what you can. You. You showed up. You showed up? You
lasted 15 minutes. You couldn't do more leave. Okay, next time. 20
minutes next time. 30 minutes. Next time you spend the whole
time, right? Let's do what you can but not don't stop hanging out
with those people. It'll grow on you just like painting a wall. You
cannot paint the whole wall with one stroke.
A stroke today. Another stroke tomorrow. Wow. I'm unpacking the
paint. Unpacking the roller, putting the paint in the in the
tray. Right putting out the sheets. The first day that you do
it takes an hour. I didn't even paint an hour past right taping up
all the edges. Alright, do that another time. It didn't take 15
minutes another time. 40 minutes, not the time. 30 minutes, right?
You slowly painting the wall takes time and you get better at it as
you go on. So all I say to people, like some people are on this live
stream. They're intimidated by the Arabic words. You think like we're
not anything different from you. There was a time where everyone
was intimidated Arabic
words what is this? All this stuff? What is a meth lab? What is
all this stuff? Everyone was like this. You just keep hanging out
with people. Just keep listening. Within a year, you will know
everything we're talking about. Right?
Allahumma in that guy for one to Hibbeler 451 knee? Yes.
Is it permissible to claim the cat in a tax return?
Yes, you may. Yes. You can give the cat to a mosque and say give
me a receipt. But why?
This money is your money
that the government is taxing and they have no right to take.
They're taking it by force into whatever legal way that you can
get out of it. Get out of it. Right. You can't claim that.
Nothing wrong with it. Some people treat taxes like Zika they they
want to be sincere. And they want to have Taqwa. And they want to
pay as much as they can.
You got it all wrong.
Taxes is not Sikka. Right. Taxes is not. You'd have tough tough,
tough well with Uncle Sam. Right? No, you get out of that as much as
you can. He doesn't have right to your money in the first place. By
shed Yeah.
Alicia VA says I want to study Islamic legal fit theory phip. So
many incidents, what should I start Alicia, or Alicia? Start by
studying the biographies of the four Imams. There are two great
books on the 40 members one by God had dead one by Mohammed Abu
Zubaydah, there are videos
about the four Imams by people of those methods. You study the Imam,
you study his methodology, okay? Because the bulk of Sharia studies
is flip.
And you see which of these four Imams settles in your heart, you
make the decision make an educated decision, which biography and
methodology
it to meet to you is most worthy of following. Then you commit
yourself to the study of that school of thought.
That's how simple it is. Okay, you use your intelligence, you use
your curiosity, you use your ability to buy books to listen,
good to decide which of the four Imams is most worthy of following.
Also add to the fact practicality. If you're in Morocco, don't try to
be a chef. Right? It's no point right? If I'm in Pakistan or
turkey, I'm not going to try to be a medic, there's no point I'm not
going to find a Medicare for for miles unless I'm going to go
online. Right? But then you're missing out on the in person
gatherings. Right? If it's going to be an online anyway for you
then choose what you want. But that's how you do it. Okay.
A bunch of research to figure out what the eyes do want to do. Yeah,
exactly. Yeah.
You so you don't do the research, you don't use your mind and do the
research to study the Furusawa the individual part issues, right? You
don't do use your mind and your ability to buy books and to read
and just to watch videos and to listen to lectures for every
little issue. Okay, what's it I got to do with research? How do we
do with it alright, what breaks it fast? I got to do the research.
No, no, no, you don't do that. You go to the methodology of them,
which the head Imams, you use all your effort to study the methods
and the biographies of these four Imams. Then once you've understood
his method,
you follow that right now you read the books with the conclusions,
right and the first type of book that you're gonna get all you're
gonna see his conclusions, no evidence is
just that you don't need evidence is now you,
you now know the methodology. Now, you start noting the evidences,
Next Level books there are going to be more discussions, more
discussions and then the high level books discuss the evidence
as to and they even compare and why they say they chose that
evidence rather than another evidence. So Ahmadis what I just
said is my the best advice for students of knowledge also go to
the methodology of them which to hit Imams. Know it well know that
Imam which dead Imam well,
and then study that method. Remember what our methods methods
only come in, are involved in the texts of Quran and Hadith that are
interpretive. There's no method on if God is one. There is no method
on Is there a day of judgment. There is no method on how many
prayers there are. There's methods on where the speech of Allah and
His messenger can be understood in different ways. That's on purpose.
He did that. On purpose. Allah was silent on matters, the Prophet
said, on purpose, Allah said, a verse that can be read in
different ways, so that we could have flexibility we have firm
foundations. Our method is Islam is like a tree. The foundation is
firm is unchanging. Okay, nobody any reform, reinterpretation is
deviation.
But the branches are flexible, because when the wind comes, we
need to be flexible. Yeah.
That's how it works can someone who has Hanafy follow the medical
opinion on Kabbalah
instead of Tata we and medical opinion on wizard you can if
there's a hardship for you, and you can
you can do that if there is a true hardship and benefit, not
whimsical illness, and a child that seems like his question does
not have winds in it. Steve says keeping your clothes pure
marshrutka what's the maximum clothes and body can be impure? By
impurity? This is a very important question that he brings up. Some
people have with Swiss OCD, their parents have dogs, right. And it's
impossible to keep pure. Well guess what? The Madame de menthe
has a strong opinion in which purity
is a recommended precondition of prayer of the validity of prayer.
Yeah, purity of clothes, not will do. Purity of clothes, in the
medical opinion has a very strong opinion that it is merely
recommended. Okay, to purify your clothes from the justice. And the
other opinion is that is obligatory, what is the middle
ground now that is the dominant statement. It is obligatory, if
you are capable of doing it, and you remember to do it, right.
Let's say you're a Hanafy or a chef a but your parents have a dog
and you live with your parents. On issue of purity. Be a medic,
follow the medical opinion, because there's no way for you to
know where the dog sled has been. Right.
If you have OCD on the issue.
Take that opinion until you're cured of the OCD. Yep. Dogs. Yeah,
that's why I saying if He's a chef, he and he has his parents
have a dog follow the medical opinion. Right? That's the chicken
process. Many people convert they live with their parents. Right and
parent has a dog.
Can you recommend specific books to read about methodology? Yeah,
read the book the biographies of the Imams should have assumed in
them. Methodology means we'll soon okay, this podcast is made for
people who are just
opening the door for the first time on knowledge on piety making
Toba so we have to translate remind me to translate everything
we say. You can't take anything for granted.
Here J Perez began to learn about the meth hubs after listening to
the older Sofia society podcast that was with Alex and Maureen and
sad and he ended up humbly mashallah because we have
there's an increasing number of somebody Scotch we teach somebody
Fitbit. It's been steady ArcView dot orgy. Should playing sports be
encouraged for kids under during fasting?
If they're better, they better know if you're going to play this
game. You're fasting. Because you can't break a vest for playing a
game. You can't come to me it's I'm dying. I'm thirsty. Right? No,
you're an adult. Now if you're better, if he's better, most 11
year old boys may not be better. But if he or she is better, they
got to know the rules.
That's the fun to Hakeem Olajuwon did it.
I got thoughts that I won't get what I'm asking for. Ah, you know
why? Those negative thoughts? Purify your sins recite the Quran
make Toba doubt on the job of dua is only a result of sins. The pure
heart is naturally trusting of Allah clean your heart from sins
and trust in Allah.
Okay, with regards to hanging out with people?
What if we are unable to find good people?
People aren't exactly welcoming to new Muslims.
I'm asking for a friend.
Okay.
I understand what she's saying. There are a lot of converts that
come in from a different ethos, and they can't possibly go to the
mosque. The solution for them is you just gotta keep searching. And
if you can't then use an online community rely upon an online
community. Don't Don't underestimate the online
community. Okay.
What are the arguments against people who do interfaith dialogue
with the Shia and try to portray them as our brother? The argument
is that there is no difference of opinion. There is no valid
difference of opinion on Katai matters called the explicit
matters in the religion. Okay. And any group that contravenes Hatha
yet of the deen the explicit texts of Quran and Hadith we don't keep
their Sahaba
okay.
We
Stay with because they're Muqtada
in general, that's the rule
of man Zuberi says How should I go about learning Arabic
try to go up to
try to go to the
any any videos that read along with you like we have them on
ArcView we have sorry on youtube so if inside a YouTube channel
where you just we're reading along with you I think we have some on
YouTube
now we go to Steve. He wants to wipe on his socks. The honeybees
are giving him issues. Steve Why don't you try something called
hydro skins? Did you try them?
Okay hydro skins try them
or go to the Humvees and see
what the humbly say about the level of sock that you can if you
have issue with your feet had enough confirm extra moving to
Jessa Jerome X can remove iron and adjusted but not hook them into
just so what does that mean I in and adjusted is the actual majesta
But the so anything can remove that right but you also need to
remove the ruling of an adjuster on that matter. Right. And that is
only done by pure water. And that means you put the water on the
water came off without an adjuster. That's it. So let's say
your pants gotten to Jess on them. You can remove that adjuster right
away with anything Kleenex, Windex, whatever you want. But
you now need to remove the ruling of an adjuster and that is only
removed by pure water. Just regular water. Put it on and it
comes off clean.
Oh good question that what isn't adjusted for people who don't know
No Jessa is that which the Cydia Allah has deemed it to be ritually
impure. That means you cannot pray with it on you, you must remove it
before you pray from your body, your skin, your clothes, or in
your place of your prayer like where you physically put your
hands and your face and your feet in the prayer.
And that consists of everything that comes out of the front and
back of the human being that consists of flowing blood as
opposed to a scab, which is not flowing blood consists of vomit
and acid reflux. So again, anything that came out of your
intestines out of your mouth, it's no different than coming out of
your back. It consists of liquid intoxicants in liquid form.
Anything that can make you high or drunk in a liquid form is not just
it consists of anything dead that died with four exceptions the
human being has never noticed
the sea any sea creature is never noticed if it's dead
any insect that does not have flowing blood is not not just and
anything slaughtered properly is not not just beyond these for
everything that isn't just these are these are the
items that are not just
what about Shia adding for it such as being in the fire if you deny
Imam it, yes, that to you made obligatory and treated as copy, a
concept that has no basis in the religion. And the only basis they
find is like, you really have to twist around verses and read into
them. So the amendment has no basis at all. And that's why they
don't talk about us so much. Right? So So, a first step is
someone is forbidden in our religion. We don't keep the
company. Listen, if you're
if you were a Anchorman for NBC, are you allowed to get caught
hanging out with Neo Nazis? Are you allowed to get caught hanging
out with people who are against the LGBT? What will happen to you
and your job get fired? They don't want you hanging out with we don't
want the association. Why this is extremely offensive in our
society. Right?
In the sight of Allah.
The friending fraternizing keeping the company with someone who
openly has a deviation and belief like this, or openly and publicly
shamelessly commits desert disobedience of God, this
offensive, right is the same way that
Anderson Cooper will never get seen in the same hemisphere. As
someone who was a racist, right? Or someone who was against the
LGBT or someone who is a * or someone who is a white
supremacist or someone who is who has said the N word or says it
regularly as a as a racial slur or someone who is against the
Zionists Right.
Can he will he ever be seen with them? If he sees them the walk
right out if he gets invited to a dinner and there are five people
at the table in a public restaurant?
And that other one of a * comes in? What is Anderson Cooper
doing? And sits at the table? What's he doing?
He's getting right up and leaving. If a picture gets taken, he's
done. Right? He's got to protect his relationship with his bosses
and with the community that he is with, right.
So why do we totally get it from that standpoint? Right? Oh, why do
we totally get that? Well, is not Allah watching us to anything and
the angels are watching us? And our deeds get sent to the prophets
and listen? So Sahaba fraternizing being even being with those types
who have went against what we call what is cut a cut the means a
verse that has no other interpretation is not
interpretive, or someone who flagrantly not privately sends and
he makes mistakes, and he's trying to do good. And he's embarrassed
by his sins. No, he's flagrantly disobeying God.
These two things are the definition of and Fess up.
Our software with them is forbidden.
Right? We don't do it. We don't fraternize the friend nor promote
such a person in the same way that in the professional world, you
don't fraternize support or promote. The guy Kyrie Irving puts
one link.
Nike dropped them, right? Nike does not befriend someone does not
support does not sponsor does not pay does not associate with anyone
who has a single link against desires. Right? Like so with that.
So we understand that right? You may agree or disagree, but you get
it. No one's shocked.
The NFL, a guy hits his wife. We have nothing to do with you. Okay,
we drop you like a hot potato. Okay, so you get it? Same thing
with us. Right? Same thing in the world of belief in Allah subhanaw
taala.
Yeah, my friend was telling me a story about how one of his uncle's
grew up in a rougher neighborhood, whatever. So there's people of all
sorts Congress coming to the massage. Yes. Everyone in the
community know this one guy who drank, drank and smoke he wreaked
of it. Yeah. But he would never miss a salon ever. So he would
come in here. And everyone would understand. Yeah.
Yeah.
How do you reconcile? Is he is he flagrant to the point that he does
it openly? And he's accepting of it? And he's somebody who has no
problem with it? Or is he suffering in silence? And we all
just happen to see the effects of it, and smell the effects of it?
Yeah, so
that would be the line. If someone is open and flagrant about
disrespecting God is different. That's the problem versus he
struggles we all struggle. Sometimes you get a peek at his
struggle. Sometimes he can't cover up the evidence of his struggle,
but he's struggling. That is the line for us. Yes, Ian asked a good
question. What about non Muslims and non Muslim, the company of a
non Muslim is no is not as dangerous as the company of a
facet. Because what is inside the community as what is inside my
cup, as harm is worse than what is not then was spilled on the
ground? I can't drink what's spilled on the ground. Right. But
I can intake. That's why what is close to you. What is similar into
you can more have more influence over you? The non Muslim Allah
sees very clear,
different, he's clearly different. But yes, that could also harm you.
It could harm you if it's having a bad impact on you.
So that's a different reason.
Why does every area in so little calf and with an alpha low, if
making Dawa and they ask, why is Tafseer necessary? Honestly, in
the Quran? How do I explain? Because we have fallen away from
the Arabic language, we were not there to see what were the reasons
of the revelation and the circumstances behind the
revelation. And the Quran has made some of its verses in such a way
that requires scholarship because Allah wants us to dig deep and he
made he didn't make all the verses of Quran plainly obvious. He made
a lot of them playing the obvious and he made a lot of them you have
to think, so that you can think you can exert effort and there can
be scholars. So the things that the foundations of the religion
are plainly obvious, right? Beyond that there are things that require
thought. Allah wants the existence of scholars if there were not
verses that would require thought we'd have no scholars, we'd all
know the same thing. And if there were not verses that were plainly
obvious, then we nobody would know anything. So Allah wants everyone
to have the foundation but only the
Those who put effort will know the rest of the law. Right? So that's
the reason why some extra money and with the Chevy
All right, we have to go does that come okay and everyone Subhanak
