Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah who it was B Woman Well welcome
everybody to the Safina society nothing but facts live stream on
Wednesday, day number eight of fasting Am I right? Or seven? Day
number seven of this month of Ramadan
in which the news yesterday the in the Muslim more related
affairs were Hamza Yusuf, not the Hamza Yusuf, of course, unlike one
of the Arab media outlets, wrote and put a picture of Sheikh Hamza
Yusuf, which was got everyone laughing, right that they put a
picture of Sheikh Hamza Yusuf and said the new head of Scotland, so
he is actually the First Minister, now Muslim Minister of Scotland.
Okay. But I actually thought he was only the health minister for
for a while now. He's the actual minister, so I missed out on that.
So that's one story. And we could read that.
Michaela Community School in Wembley is preventing Muslim
pupils from praying. That's sort of another story. I don't know if
we want to get into that. Uganda. I'm not gonna get into that,
because I'm not I'm done with a certain group of people. I'm not
talking about them for a long time. I want to see what's going
to happen. We don't talk about them for a long time.
Or we thinking yeah, the alphabets?
Yeah, I want to know what would happen. Like what would our
probably, because I'm just wondering, you know, a man charged
with attempted murder. We read about that last week. Okay, so he
has been charged. All right.
He has been charged. So let's start reading about Scotland's new
president.
They call them ministers. But it's President essentially. It's very,
very,
very high. Well, it's straight in the lens. I mean, I don't think
that the party people.
The majority anytime soon, but he's a leader of a major party.
Okay.
But you know, if they were in the majority than he would be the
prime minister. Oh, I see.
So he is defeated rivals Kate Forbes and ash Reagan,
to become the leader. Oh, he's the leader of his party. Yeah. Which
means that he will almost certainly become the First
Minister tomorrow. Right. Which is what's the difference in First
Minister and Prime Minister? It's one is the the majority and one is
the opposition. The minority leader base? Yeah.
It's like Pelosi. All right. He's a 37 year old guy, the first most
of them to lead a major UK party, and is set to be confirmed as the
first ethnic minority leader of a devolved government. On Tuesday.
He defeated Miss Forbes by a score of 52 to 48. In the second round,
was this the playoffs are so now with use of receiving 26,302
votes? And Miss Forbes read only receiving 23,898? So only half a
million people voted? No. I mean,
not even 50,000 people voted.
People don't vote. Yeah.
During the election campaign, usif took several positions
that may have contradicted his faith. Yes. But he also called
himself a proud Muslim, also said that his faith will not be the
basis by which he literally now listen to this. When the Mongols
took over,
and they entered Islam. Right.
Their beliefs are wacky, you know that. Their beliefs are insane.
The Mongols. Mongols had their beliefs were all over the place.
But they claim to be Muslims. Right?
So
we have something similar in politics in the West. And I'll
tell you why.
It's not exactly
exciting for me, but it is in one sense. Number one,
people who
are out on the outside looking in, and they're seeing what they don't
know what muscles are like. And now they see this kind of thing.
They see a Muslim, that's all they say. They don't see a Muslim who
contradicts his faith. Right? We got to keep that in mind. that not
everyone views things the way we do and Allah subhanaw taala may
bring something to people in a way that is not
Allah is not bound
By following any Sharia, right? So the ways by which Allah may bring
benefit to the world may be forbidden for us to do, but Allah
can still bring benefits to the world through that. So that's one
part of it that you have to take take into account is that a lot of
people out there, they're just seeing a Muslim, like a Muslim is
ruling Scotland now or he is a minister of Scotland. Okay? So you
got to keep that in mind and that ALLAH SubhanA wa, tada is, is also
maybe having a wisdom for that crowd of people. Okay. Whereas for
us, we would say, oh, no, he contradicted the deen in many
ways, and we're against it. Okay, fine. That's for us. Now, what
part of it does not excite me very much is that you have entire
Islamic Muslim countries with the entire government is Muslim. And
it doesn't do anything because actual reform requires the entire
group. So there's billet that falls down that is Bella
is general calamity. And the one individual cannot alter a general
calamity.
General calamity that befalls a nation befalls an OMA is only
retorted or pushed back
by a general Toba.
That's a rule. We hear that rule OS general calamities that befall
the OMA.
It's not going to be pushed back by one righteous person or two or
just people. Right?
It's going to be pushed back only by a medical marijuana October.
That's a big difference. Right? That's important thing. So I know
ever think that things are going to change, right?
Things are not going to change. But individuals,
individuals may get inspired. And I as I said, we are viewing when
we view almost one because we're in Islam all day, we're reading
books all day, we may view something as totally off, but from
some people are viewing things from 50,000 feet out, they just
see a Muslim.
You see what I'm saying? And Allah subhana, which it may bring his
wisdom. However, he may bring a benefit in any way that he wants.
That doesn't mean we're allowed to do that or rule by it. And this is
very important part of federal, by the way, in the in the Mottola.
They probably mentioned this, that Allah subhana which Allah MIT has
the has the power has the ability has the
hawk to bring about a benefit however he wants.
But just because a benefit came from something forbidden, does not
alter our law. It's it's so important. I can't tell you how
many times I see people tell me, is this how that No, it's not. But
he did it. And it's you're saying it's annoying, but he did it? Yes,
that's true. And so many people benefited from it. That's true,
too. I recognize that, for example, like, I think a lot of
people benefited from,
like a lot of people benefited from the world's cup being right,
a lot of people I mean, I just shared the picture with the post
with
what's his name?
Ibrahim vich.
One of my favorite entertainers. He's an entertainer. I don't view
him only as a soccer player. But what's his first name
is Latin, Latin, Ibrahim of its Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of the
most he's one of the best entertainers you can find out
there. That's number one. But he had a great post. He loved
clutter, right? He loved it. He said Everything about it was
awesome. Right? That doesn't mean it was highlighted what they did,
right. So something may be hot off to spend billions of dollars on a
sport. This how long for us in our religion, there's no doubt there's
not even a discussion.
But number two, so just because of wisdom comes out of it benefit
comes out of it. The ruling doesn't change and this is the
rule for the fapy and the Mufti. You don't change the rule of Allah
because you saw benefit come out of it. You confirm both you say
yes, it's haram. Number one, yes, it is sinful.
To do that, it remains to be sinful. And yes, Allah, may Allah
have chosen to derive a benefit out of it. Okay.
He may have chosen to derive a benefit out of it,
even though it's sinful. What else? There was a guy who used to
go into nightclubs and he used to talk to people in the night in
nightclubs about Islam, and they would understand
it's true story. So that mean, it's hard not to do that. No.
He did something home he benefited people by it. Right. So we
separate between how a love brings his benefits to creation and what
has had
haram.
You have to make that line. We have to observe Halal haram Allah
doesn't observe it he may use and this is a Hadith of the Prophet.
Allah to Allah may give notice of in Allah Allah yawns who had the
deen but Raju did Fajr This is a Hadith double click confirming and
clarifying what we're saying here in hola hola Yong Soo had that
Dean barrage al Fajr ALLAH SubhanA wa Tzadik will give victory to
this Deen that means the name of Islam will spread the word of
Islam will spread the Rajat is boxing is most hot on sports
clearly hot up yeah, you're hitting the face. But besides
hitting all the other
parts of the body is held on to like you cannot play a sport where
you injure other people on purpose even if both sides consent
to
that name Muhammad in the 19 in the 20th century, spread far and
wide because of
the boxer Muhammad Ali so this is somebody now I'm not saying he's a
federal but that we're saying that the ruling in Islam is this is
forbidden yet we see out of that come this immense benefit where at
the name Muhammad spread Islam spread he became one of the best
faces in the to the modern world of what a Muslim is right? But
who's gonna deny that who what Muslim out there is not proud and
I was one time sick
in 2014 teen I was extremely sick cannot believe how sick I was. But
one day I started feeling a little bit better I just spent from about
when everyone slept I was you know when you're sick and you're
there's no day and night when you're sick you're just like
totally everything's mixed up must have been like from 12 to like two
in the morning I think I watched every single Muhammad Ali video on
YouTube you love my you can't not love them in right so Allah to
Adam brings his benefit however he wants through someone doing
something had something good something bad in by Sharia
standards haram.
So don't confuse though that this allows us to do it. We are bound
by Allah's law. Allah may elevate the name of Islam or some other
benefit by a person who is a complete fetch.
I'm telling you and I'm we're sitting here in New Jersey.
Right?
What I've seen two people now I know there's gonna bother some of
the sisters, which is fine. I have no problem with any critical
criticism, but I seen two guys they entered Islam the language
they were saying I know exactly they got it from entertain.
I know exactly what they were saying where they were listening
to from the words that they were saying the message they were
saying from Andrew Tate so but oh he's this that another say
everything you want. Say at all. I have no problem with if it's
right, it's right. It's wrong. It's wrong. But one thing that is
happening is that some people actually learned about Islam from
him and became Muslim Now give it five years their life will be one
way completely different from it was no right. And his life may
change may not that's up to him.
So you see if you have to understand this is extremely
important
distinction that we're making here and that's the way this is this is
like an Islamic News Analysis. This is how we would new but
analyze news from a lens of Islam. Is that
Halal haram is one thing that's for us to follow
how Allah Tada wants to elevate the name of Islam where the face
of or the image of Muslims and also keep in mind there are people
out there keep in mind all the people out there
who don't know anything about the details that we talked about were
that someone's This is a practicing Muslim not a practicing
what they just see Muslim That's it. Okay, so that's something to
keep in mind.
All right. And that's how I view any Muslim rising in the in the
West in any way shape and form. That's how I view it
all right. Well, you did you guys want to show something that you
guys were playing around with? Yeah. Do you want to show that
video? It's up to you if it's kind of a crazy video.
Yeah, the Nashville video. Do I want to talk about it? No, I'm
gonna start my fast from today.
I'm going to try my best. You agree with that fast? Yeah.
Yeah, I'm done with them.
Listen to this
one leaves a message for five pillars. You guys call a secular
towards Muslim who rules by Cofer manmade laws. Okay, you guys that
five pillars seriously need to go learn to slam. So here we go for
sure. All
just reporting a story. That's all they're doing.
Okay.
Can you explain this terminology? Like the hood? And then, like
these type of like hum dilla was shielded from this? Yeah. Okay,
because like, you know, we didn't live in a place where it was very
tough period and stuff like that. But I always hear this stuff. And
I've always wondered like, what's the precise definition of these?
by our standards? And by what they what they consider, okay.
What is a thought? A thought, which has a couple of different
definitions by the way.
One of them is an oppressor someone who oppressed a ruler who
oppresses the people. The other one is, it is
the ruler who was a calf. That's another one. So it went from
anything that transgresses the boundaries of Sharia to the
oppressive rule. And mostly when in speech and in in the books when
they refer to the word thought hoods. They mean the oppressive
ruler Muslim or not stuggles Okay. Comes from Toby yet. What is water
and Bharat wala is that is loyalty.
Its loyalty. And the Muslim is never forbidden to support a cafe
over a Muslim guy never allowed to do that. He's never allowed.
You're never allowed to join the army of the kuffar to fight
Muslims ever get joined the US Army, British Army, Canadian Army
and go fight Afghans
or Iraq these were Muslims, right? So that will be forbidden for us
to do. That doesn't mean you have to agree with them. And it doesn't
mean that your support for them is to support everything they say. So
you very well may
be able to criticize and educate them or man the right and forbid
the wrong.
But you do not support the
non believer over there.
Right? Or the believer over the Muslim. So that's what and but up
is dissociation. If someone let's say works for NBC or something
like that, and their colleague, their friend says something
politically incorrect. What do they have to do? They have to in
some way shape and form officially cut ties. That's brought up
so let's see an example. Khalid bin Walid the prophesy Salem when
in Mecca and he wanted to make peace.
MK he told everyone know Killick God have been when he got into a
skirmish, guilt. Okay. So but he killed in the wrong, like was not
right the way he killed. So what are the prophesy centum said, the
prophet announced out loud, Allah and His messengers are to have
dissociated from the action of ketamine we were brought up from
that. That's what that's brought up.
Okay, we are innocent from this, we're free from this, we
dissociate.
So that's what it is.
Make sense?
Why is why have these terms like the way that you've explained it?
You know, very simple.
But why is it like that these terms are like, I don't know how
to describe it. I don't want to say, like, sacrifice, but
sometimes they feel like they're suffice terms. Yeah. So they use
that a lot because they believe and I think they're using it
correctly. Most of the time. You have to have bought up from an
innovator. You have to have bought up from like a scholar who's
speaking with Bidda heretical sects, we believe that too.
If someone comes in and negates a Qatari from the deen, we're gonna
cut the means explicit text from the religion. We're going to have
Bara from him to right.
All right, in other news, this guy, Bobby's story, what was it
called? What does he call his channel? Bobby's perspective has
become a Muslim. Well, that's great news. Okay.
He is an internet star. I guess you could say Is he really an
internet star just in our circle in our little world?
He's a YouTuber. He's a big time YouTuber Christian youtuber from
Norway, actually, isn't he
From Norway.
Where's he from?
Like Macedonia.
Oh, I thought he was from like Scandinavia. Okay, he's Balkan.
So he's Balkan, and he ends up become a Muslim. And he has a very
interesting
saying that he said the other day said that
he said that.
The only is his entire friends have cut them off. His family has
cut them off.
Everyone has cut him off. Okay. So goes to show. And one of the thing
I liked what he said, You know, I said, I liked what he said when he
said that.
He said,
I didn't become Muslim, because it was something
nice and enjoyable. I wanted it because it's the truth, whether I
like it or not, that's what I'm looking for the truth whether I
like it or not. So he puts a post up here, right? And he says that
no one's approved of him. His family has cut him off. And it's
been extremely difficult for him. But this is an important feature
here. And that's what separates intellect from the neffs.
Okay, is that our intellect dominates
our actions, not our ego. Our feelings should not dominate our
actions. When it comes to truth. And when it comes to duty,
contracts, responsibilities, I think your heart should dominate
your actions when you deal with people. Individuals, okay? Like
your family members and stuff. You can't imagine you go to your
family and you start treating your family like
cheating. You're treating your family like, contractually
right? Your son walks by your daughter walks by you don't have
to say you're not obligated. Say Salaam. Oh, Dad, are you upset?
No. I'm not obligated to say if someone does something if I want
to do it, I can do it if I don't I know not.
Right.
So that's you don't deal with your family like that. You don't deal
with your neighbors like that. But in other matters of truth, that's
how you deal with things. Okay, so that was it's nice to see someone
enter slam
so it's good to say you want to show us something Omar.
Okay, if you want to show us something you could? No problem.
Michaela Community School in Wembley has prevented Muslims,
pupils from praying.
There are 3000 people who signed a petition online complaining, you
know, I don't like complainers. But they're complaining about the
behavior of a school which currently provides no prayer
facility. They got a they got so many Muslims in this country, they
gotta be able to pray.
It is alleged that the teachers have interrupted Muslim students
while they were praying and have discipline them by suspension or
expulsion.
Yeah, I agree with him this time around that there's no excuse for
this stuff in England when your numbers are Muslims. Especially
this is Wembley, which is north London, right?
Five Pillars, you got to stop with the popups. Seriously, five
pillars got popups. You go on their website, and an annoying
thing pops up and they hide the X. Do you think this is going to make
people sign up for your email list? And endear people to I know
the answer. By the way, I know the brother who runs this thing.
Yeah, let's bring him on. He's a great guy.
I don't know if he made the website or not. But I'm sure he's
involved in it. But the pop up thing has stuck.
Put it up. Yeah. Yeah, that's it.
So this online petition makes allegations that last Thursday,
students were performing Salah in the schoolyard on their own mats,
when a teacher approached him and said, stop praying. This is
excellent. You know, why is when you tell someone to stop to just
going to do it more. If that kid was like 5050. Now he's 100%.
Right? This is that's why I'm telling you a lot of
actions. Right? He achieves his will in ways that would be
forbidden for us. Okay, but that's not forbidden for Allah subhanaw
taala the Christians say God works in mysterious ways, right?
So, the teacher said you need to leave your Islamic cultures alone.
This is the west where she would the world is not 1993 or something
to say something like that. What world is she living in? Before
telling them they're not allowed to pray
and put out mats in the school? You're gonna get detention she
said, if they repeat this behavior, one of the students
praying was then excluded
According to the petition, it is further alleged that the teacher
told students to fix their hijab and previously told another
student that her religious headscarf looks like a cake.
That's why you got to go to all Muslim schools. Why put your kids
to this? Haram? Right? It's actually forbidden to put your kid
in this tension. Kids are not made for tension. They're not ready for
spiritual warfare.
In another incident,
according to the petition, students who are praying in an
empty classroom about by the way, notice, don't forget, there are
non Muslim kids watching.
Okay? They themselves, maybe like this is a bit extreme. But the
people pray. They themselves maybe to just when when a class like
this happens, you just don't know who's gonna sign with whom,
whereas this that you would have never got their attention.
Otherwise, in another incident, students were praying in an empty
classroom when a teacher shouted at them, saying, you're not
allowed to pray. We don't know who you're praying to.
These are not isolated incidents, but a repeated culture at the
school.
From segregating students that are fasting making inappropriate
comments about the World Cup, being in Qatar and having an issue
with students wearing Free Palestine badges.
Okay.
This is absolutely disgusting. They say our school prides itself
on being multicultural multifaith treating their Muslim students
this way. What's worse is that the school is majority Muslims. And
there is no prayer room for them. I said Sen to Islamic schools the
public school in this area is majority Muslim. Alright student
have requested a prayer room but they have been refused. And they
have to go Pratt outside.
Five pills understand that students are demanding that the
school provides them with a prayer room and allows them to practice
their religion freely. England is something else man, that you
Scottish Prime Minister, First Minister 50 More than 50% Muslims
in the school.
I was just pulling up the next story for us. By the way. One
parent who has two children at the school told five pillars that he
was told of an incident where up to five children were suspended.
For praying in the playgrounds. Well, that is if it's lunchtime,
and I wanted to do yoga.
Okay,
would I get suspended?
Right? If I wanted to do yoga while singing in Arabic song, what
I get suspended. So what is going on here? He's moving his body and
uttering Arabic phrases to himself, the others moving his
body and uttering Arabic phrases to himself. What's the difference?
Is this a war of beliefs?
Or the if I'm on the playground, and I got 20 minutes of recess,
why can I move put my head on the ground? What's the problem with
that? It is my understanding that the school has suspended these
students not due to the fact that they were praying, but due to the
fact that they did not respond to the teachers while they were
praying What do you frown, right? You're only allowed to pray if I
permit you to pray you know that that's what frowns into the
magician's. Right? You believe without asking me first. Right?
The school does not provide prayer facilities in the school, the
parents said
another source told five pillars Wait a second. So the teacher has
to be able to talk to the student
at every moment, they can't even not talk for five minutes.
Hard to believe. It doesn't even take five minutes to pray.
Students are being prevented from practicing the religion and
they're expelled. This is a blatant manifestation of Islam
full we've ever seen once totally unacceptable. It's Ramadan, and
they still continue to act this way. School claims that they're
secular, and yet they celebrate Christmas every year. They are
reportedly telling students to leave their faith at home.
This is completely unacceptable, says another person.
All right.
These children live in a free country where they have the right
to write their religious, religious traditions blah, blah,
blah. Five Pillars approach the Mikayla community school. Okay,
and they have not responded however the school send a text
message experiencing untrue allegations have been made about
the school resulting in death threats. I'll stop this stuff.
Anytime anyone wants to get away with something. They say, Oh, be
careful. He's suicidal. Oh, he got death threats. And it's a lie.
sources have told five pillars that teachers told students they
have received death threats, and they're risking their lives by
teaching their good resign and teach somewhere else with less
Muslims. You'll get in less trouble or next time when you have
Muslims
behave
Right, treat them properly
right?
If it's such a risk to teach there.
We have also been told that teachers gave speeches about how
the petition showed students were not willing to sacrifice enough
for the school or they sacrificed for the school.
Kids hate school.
Most eighth school if your normal right, individual students were
also pulled out of classrooms and asked if they had signed the
petition, and then shouted out if they had. They also told students
that they did not deserve trips. Were getting petty now canceling
the school trip to the Statue of Liberty. No Statue of Liberty for
you. Where did you guys go for school trip? Statue of Liberty?
My, my one kids class was they were so bad that their class trip
was to the bowling alley.
Because the teachers didn't felt that in deserve classroom. They
also told students that they did not deserve these trips. Students
were told if anyone asked to pray, they will go to detention. What is
this? The Mikayla School is one of the most high profile schools in
the country. And head teacher Catherine variabel Singh has made
numerous media appearances on its website the school says that it's
less progress eight score place best school in the nation. It says
we have high expectations of behavior. Why? Because without
excellent discipline, learning cannot take place. Well learn to
accommodate Muslims because there's just not going to stop.
Pupils that Mikayla feel that they're treated fairly and justly
she says thanks to our high expectations it means learning can
flourish visit any classroom and you will see hands sky high eager
to answer teachers questions no please. Teachers are polite and
helpful with a genuine interest in helping the pier their peers Our
motto is work hard be kind we value kindness at Makayla baba,
baba blah, all sorts of nonsense. Okay? At McHale children's will
just learn a lot they become better people. I just want you to
teach them. I'll teach the all do the better person part. You just
teach them writing reading and math. Isn't that what we what it
is writing, reading arithmetic, the three R's?
All right, what's the next story as? So it's been going around? I
don't know if you want to talk about it in detail. Yeah. What is
it? About the Time Square? The man who led the week
why he did it in public. Okay.
Wait, no, it was Doctor what's his name?
I thought it was that doctor that African American doctor? Maybe?
Okay, which Who do you want me to read it from? From? No, it was
just on Twitter. I didn't see any particular. Okay, so
his mics on right. Okay. Go. There have been accusations against him?
And it seems like quite a bit from a lot of different people. To the
point I don't think he's even in Texas anymore. He was in Texas for
a while. And Texas. Yeah. And I think that he I don't even know if
he's still in Texas, but multiple communities and a whole whole
range of things. Now, there's no court case that's been filed
against him. However, at the same time, many of the different
masajid and you know, different figures. They disassociated
themselves. I had heard about this maybe a year ago or two years ago
about these Yeah. Or like even during COVID I think a lot of this
stuff came out must have been in like 2020 2021 Something like
that. So what are people supposed to do? Like you know?
Okay, first of all,
forget Time Square Scylla for a second you get the picture up, but
we'll talk up talk about the there's got to be a better picture
I think right
now it's a video okay, good. We'll show the video in a second. But
first of all, when it comes to that specific brother, but
his videos one were pretty popular couple while back, which is fine,
which is good, except some of the tutorials. Upload little bit more.
Yes.
The tweet was wrong.
That's the first thing, right? So if you want to be a reciter and
you want to recite that is to me one of the best ambitions you
could have. I support
because the more Quran is recited the better, but gotta get the
tweet, right. Just the first thing. Secondly, whenever all
sorts of accusations are going around about somebody
Then, what do we do about it? Well, what do we do about it? From
which perspective as a listener? No, I'm gonna listen.
Simple, like, all sorts of rumors are going around about somebody I
just want to listen to on YouTube. I'm listening, right? Rumor means
nothing to me.
Okay, just a rumor. It's hearsay, as a listener, if I'm picking up a
book, okay? And they say, Oh, the author of this book did such and
such. Okay, well, right. If it's a crime, it's a crime. But if it's
an Islamic book, if it's accurate, I'm going to read it. That's what
I care about. Right? As a reader as a listener.
All right, what about as
you run a masjid? Yeah, for an organization like Sofia aside, you
know, it's a different rule. Now. It's different now.
If there are rumors go on about you.
I can get burned by that by my association with you, so I'm not
gonna associate with you. Right, that's within your right to do so
you don't have to bring on someone who's associated 100% If I just
didn't feel like associated exactly associate so. But to save
myself now, right? From, you know, being associated with someone who
may have like a press, somebody may have done something wrong,
then there's no need for this, right? So I'm not gonna associate
with. That's what I recommend. If my son is hanging around with some
guy, and all the people talking about this guy, and he does this
that in the other, I'm going to say, Look, your reputation is at
risk. Now. We care about reputation, right?
Shed Yeah, requires us to care about reputation, right? So no one
associates you with something bad. So don't put yourself in a
situation where you could be accused
of supporting him.
Oh, it's just rumors, okay, well, when the rumors died down and
disappeared, then you can be with them, but do not associate with
the person until their name is cleared, which is different from a
false rumor.
Which, for example, when around about the prophets, I send them
for false rumors. Like, clearly we know it's false. But these rumors
about sexual assault allegations, or whatever it is, these rumors
can never be known to be true or false. Right? For example, that's
where we have to also separate two types of rumors, rumors that are
clearly false.
It's not rumor, and then a slander. You're just slandering
the person, right, or rumors that we'll never know if it's true or
false. So this is actually a very important segment here. Learning
how to how do we as interact with somebody who had scandals, right.
So again, this though, that's the case, by the way, Omar, good call.
Were the top there. I'd say recovering that today.
Okay. Yeah. So does that make sense? You have to splice it up?
Yeah. The chicken buchi. They say all sorts of things about him.
Okay. Right. All sorts of things about him.
I'm reading his books and listening to his lectures. I don't
care what anyone says.
Shake it. Joomla has old books. This gold. We have one right here.
That's, that's my book. This he wrote this, or yours? This. Here's
this topic.
All right, with the commentary, small comments, right by Ali.
Gemma. It's pretty good.
Of Jota to toe heat, is there going to be any other sounder book
and update than this? So what came later in his life politically? And
some of the fatawa he gave later in life as a different story?
Yeah. Now, if I have listeners, if I have students, I will make sure
though not maybe probably will not cite him publicly. So that the
general viewership will then lump you into that group or that.
Okay. But privately among students of knowledge, yeah, no problem.
Because students of knowledge should know better, that just
because I'm citing his book does not mean I support all his other
things. Right.
So I'm not going to go in to what he said. But suffice it to say
that some people agreed with it, some people did it. So it split
the community in half, right? So I don't want to go there.
I don't want to go. Now. There's some people where they want to
take it a step further. And what they say is that if you stay
silent, then what you're doing is that you're inherently like
implicitly, you're supporting an oppressor. And the idea that, like
this type of or, you know, like we we can't get our justice are the
victims or the alleged victims, they can't get their justice in a
court of law because statute of limitations and this and that. So
what what do we have now the only thing that we could do is raise
awareness. And, you know, tell people, you know, and when
warn people against him and stuff like that. But it seems like this
is very, very close. First of all, does this have a part to play in
the media? And second of all, like, it seems very close to, like
slander. And so I know if you know, like some of the I heard
someone else arguing with them yesterday about this, where they
just flat out said, they said,
people need to know that he is a serial *. And I said, Wait,
just proof Hold on a second, you know, like, you know, did? Did you
go? And did you verify these for yourself? Or did you read a report
from a group online? And, you know, let's not even begin to talk
about that group, because that group has some strange connections
to begin with. Now, let's say that the allegations and whatnot, it's
like, whatever. But say, let's, let's turn it and let's pretend
that this was a woman. And we said that this woman is a serial
*. Or let's not even say that, let's say that there was
consent involved. And all we said, without verification, we just said
that this woman likes to sleep around. That's 80 lashes right
there, because that's us. And her reputation, and her reputation is
destroyed. Now, perhaps because it's a men, it doesn't make a
difference, right? A woman's reputation is not like a man's
reputation. But there still has to be, you know, it's similar is
enough. Yeah. So I mean, I look at it like this, if a person openly
says something that
is explicit, that's that's why I have to separate between.
You got to separate between three things, a theological position,
which you can put pen to paper on. And we could say here, this is
what you said. And this is why you say it. Now we could say no,
you're totally right. You're totally wrong. Right? Or it's
valid, but I disagree.
That's one thing. The other thing is a political position. That's
political positions. Everyone has their own facts. Everyone has
their own argument for politics and politics. It's very hard to
clearly state that someone's right or wrong in politics. Good.
Thirdly, women related issues, and money related issues. We don't see
the evidence. Right. It's claims he stole from me, he touched me.
Right? It's claims. So does that mean, just because we say there's
not? I can't really say he's guilty. Does that mean he's
innocent? No. Does he mean he's innocent? Right. So it's clearly
something's going on. There's where there is no smoke without
any fire? Right? This is not one allegation. Right? There's not one
or two allegations, right.
So I'm going to stay away from the person.
In all circumstances, I'm going to stay away from the person without
having to say anything, unless it's a theological issue where he
puts pen to paper. And because everyone, look, it's right here.
He said it. And this is wrong. And this is an innovation and you have
to stay away from him and stop reading his book. That is
explicit. Right? That's my position. I don't know Adam, but
but that's where that's that's what I've arrived at, just by
using basic Sharia principles and logic. And the basic point of
logic is we need to be able to assess,
we need to be able to assess the facts. In any investigation. What
do they say first, the first thing they say? What are the facts here?
In political positions, facts are very tenuous, right. It's really
hard to say who's 100% right and who's wrong? Right.
In personal allegations, it's even harder.
Right? Does that make sense? Yeah. I guess people they kind of wonder
like, if we lived in a perfect world,
or by perfect world, I mean, that we lived in a government where the
Sharia law was
implemented and you know, everything like that everyone
followed it. What exactly would be done about an individual like this
and what is the public supposed to do
there the women who were accusing this individual
should have come up come forth right away.
Right. And then he should be treated taken care of. Right?
They come that's the key
and should hear you either show a proof of harm or you come up right
away. But you what you what is not accepted in China is that you come
later with no proof.
That's a problem. Sure. Yeah. That's that's very weak. You're
not going to get far with that. Right? So either come up right
away. Okay. Yeah. Or you bring hard evidence. Either one, one or
the other.
No, this is a little bit more of a, I guess, like a touchy subject,
but
Say, we're living in the time of the Sharia. And a man and a woman
they decide to do Zina.
And what happens is, is that the woman is expecting something out
of the men, you know, like in terms of Zina, yeah. But then say
the guy takes advantage of her. And like, you know, he does
something where in reality, neither of them should have been
doing this to begin with. But now he really injured and he harmed
her. Does a woman have any recourse or like, so repeat the
story again? It's they do Zina? Right. And they're both of them
are complicit in this. They're complicit. It's not like she got
raped, per se. Yeah. But like, in the in the beginning, she agreed.
Let's say it's, you know, they're in a haram relationship. And they
took it to the level where they they do Zina, but then the guy,
you know, like, he becomes very abusive. I think that's what
happens in most * cases. They start they consent. Yeah, it was
to a certain level. Yes. Right. Or have relations? And yeah, the guy
got out of control. Yeah. harmed. Yeah. Which is, which seems to me
like in a lot of these cases,
like accusations that come against Muslims, they're kept quiet for a
while. And, you know, when you read the story, it seems as if,
in the beginning, the woman is the one who initiated something
like, you know, and there was a level of her own relationship, or
the guy DM sir, this happens a lot. And I'm not just saying one
case will not go on. And this happens a lot, the guy DM sir, she
could block him, but she responds, and it keeps going, and it keeps
going, and it keeps going. And then eventually, the woman she
realizes, you know, this is a little bit more than what I asked
for. And then after that, say, well, whatever happens happens,
and the person you know, they emotionally manipulate if that's
such a thing,
or emotionally abusing, you know, the the woman and you know,
basically manipulating her into * and things like this.
All this stuff we can only.
Again, let's look at it from the perspective of the law and the
perspective of individuals. Right, right. From the perspective of the
law is very hard. To make your case you need evidence to make
your case, right.
For the effect of individuals
to act on multiple accusations, it starts to matter, right? Multiple
accusations, even without any proof, but multiple, without any
proof starts to matter. I would simply like because at that point,
why would you? Unless you have proof that this person, you're
certain that this person is innocent of all these and someone
is conspiring against them? Why would you put yourself next to
this person? Right? Yeah, that's the question. So if there is a
speaker and a party, and and multiple accusations go off
against him?
Why would I invite him and just invite controversy in our
messages? Right? Right. I'm not obligated to invite him in the
first place. So I would stay away from the person. So did that do we
got to separate between the law
and personal social interactions? Right, the law takes a lot to make
someone guilty. Even in our society here, there are Netflix
documentaries about people, yet the law could not be able to nail
them. Right? There are Netflix documentaries about people who
committed stuff like this, right?
All sorts of crazy stuff. Millions of people watch these
documentaries, yet. The courts have not been able to put them
behind bars. But there's the law of public opinion, the court of
public opinion, I would say, our guidance on this is to stay away
from somebody who has rumors floating around them.
Right, that rumors of harm floating around them.
If you know it's a false rumor I would say about it is like
defamation someone defames you as an extremists. Someone defames.
You You know someone who's an extreme, but that's just
defamation. We could we could look at your words and assess ourselves
whether you're that or not. Does that make sense? I think that's
the right breakdown. Right? Law requires hard evidence. But me as
a person, I don't require hard evidence. I could simply not
associate with somebody. Because I'm going to be now the court of
public opinion you lost? Are we obliged to say for example, I see
something on social media saying go, you know, this is the story of
the victim. Share the story so that the victim can get visibility
and stuff like that. How do I know it's a victim? Yeah. So what am I
supposed to say? It's their claim, you know, is it is it even
permissible for me to spread that?
I think you have to know it's a fact in order to spread it. I
don't think because Melody 21 Saying something good. He said in
the court, you're innocent till proven guilty. In the court of
law, you're innocent till proven guilty.
in the court of public opinion, you're guilty until proven
innocent, right? Like if if if you're going to be close to
somebody as get married to somebody, befriend somebody move
in with somebody hire somebody. All those categories of people
guilty until proven innocent. Like almost says, I'm going to bring
someone today. Okay. Well, who was?
Right? Who was?
I need to know who it is, right? Once a year almost says, no, no,
I'm vouching for him. I said, Okay, fine. You've got your
voucher for him. A random stranger wants to come and hang out with us
in the student know, who was he? I don't know who he is. He could be
some crazy person. So the court of in social life, family life,
you're guilty until proven innocent, so I'm staying away from
it. Right? I would not have
bought someone with all these rumors swirling around them, and
so to speak, or to lead. So now if a message does like, are they if
they do that, yeah, they're gonna get the ire that they get. Maybe
they have really had victims than you deserve, the higher the all
the higher that you get. Yeah. Then the people who are hurt by
that person. Yeah. will hate you. And you deserve that hate? Because
you you brought it up on yourself? Yeah, there is. Remember, this is
we're talking about moral laws here. We're not talking about
defamation and false rumors about people. Now, if if I'm a personal
victim of something, yeah. Can I go out in public? And say this
person did such and such to me? If you can't get justice in the court
of law, then yes, you are permitted to do that proof being
that the prophets of Allah when he was salam received a case like
this. And the prophets I send them
said to him, take your your furniture,
take your furniture, put out in front of your house. And if people
ask you, why are you doing this, say my neighbor is harming me. The
profits I sent him said this, okay, my neighbor is harming me.
Right? Remember, when we had a guy causing all sorts of trouble in
NBC, splitting up friendships and causing all sorts of fitna you
cannot imagine.
There's nothing like legal that he was doing wrong, right. But he was
causing harm, right? And the peep, we got together and said, What are
we going to do, we're going to issue a statement, we issued a
statement, we emailed it to all the local massages, and we read
this statement out loud, after I showed it to everybody, we said so
there is an individual such and such such as his name is such and
such. This is this is what he does stay away from him and the message
we are dissociated from him, right? And then we emailed that to
all of the local massage, and
that's where there's no legal thing that he broke that we can
prove that he did wrong, but we can win in the court of public
opinion, right? By just spreading this word. And if your previous
record is that you're always honest, and you tell the truth,
right, then, so, you know, I have to ask, now the person they can
say, you know, they can they can tell the public that this is what
has been done to me. Now, what if we were just to take that one step
further? And then one step further? Let's say that, what
about the family? The family believes the victim? So the family
can, you know, say that this is what's happened? And now what
about the advocates of the family? So where exactly is the line
drawn? Because a lot of people, they're like, you know, you have a
platform, you should be you know, and it really in reality, we're on
the other side of, of the country. But you know, people they're going
to say, Oh, you have a platform. Why don't you say something to
support the victims and contempt condemned them? When, like, So
where exactly does it stop? Where if I can do it, if I'm the victim,
and I can speak out in public? Who can't speak out in public? The one
who can speak out in public? That's a very good question, where
is the limit?
What we can say?
Is that if you know this victim,
right, you know, this victim, right, and you can vouch for them,
then you could speak about, alright, I know this victim, but a
cold call. Yeah, a cold call. I'm a victim, right? I want you to go
and bash so and so on your street. Right? I don't know you. I'm sorry
to tell you that. Oh, you don't sympathize with me? I do not know
you. Okay. Right. And I don't know if what you're saying is true or
false. Okay. But if it's somebody that let's say it's your it's
your, someone you know?
And you can vouch for them, then their honesty, right? Then yeah,
you can speak about it. No problem.
So we have to draw these lines, because otherwise we have cats
now.
And what about the organizations out there that, that take the
information from these victims and spread it? That organization needs
to have a strong record in the society? Any organization like
there's there's a couple in wolf's clothing. Yeah. Is one of them
faces one of them.
Who else does this? Those are the two that I know. I'm not going to
pass an assessment. I'm not going to do a job hunt that deal on them
right now. Because I don't have the information. Right. I've heard
things said here and there. But I don't have I don't do Jonathan
Tatianna. On those organizations. I'm not going to do that. But what
can I what I can say is that in order for people to believe you,
you need to have one over the trust of those people of your
audience. That's it. That's a general that's the only rule like
why do I believe the Better Business Bureau not read it? If
I'm going to get if I'm going to learn about a business that I want
to you know, bring into my house to do a big job. I'm gonna go to
the Better Business Bureau the reviews there tend to be more
reliable than let's say other websites. So reliability is the
key Trust is the key in these things.
So that's the that's the story on how we handle all right, so I see
Subak largest QUESTION
Yeah, there have been said things said about
face but I'm not going to put do Jada and Sadie Jonathan Sadie. It
is like when you assess an individual because not the
organization we're assessing.
It's just a name. It's the people who run the organization
right? That's why I actually don't like when when
it an organization issues a statement or affetto or something.
Oh, who are you? It's just a name don't cover it. Pull that off, put
your faces up, which they do. They're not hiding who they are.
We all know who they are. Right? So I'm not in the position I'm not
going to do that job hunt ads deal on them
but that's the general rule is that they need to develop trust
with the with with the people that they're talking to. Simple as that
once they're trustworthy and then they say guys we assessed that
this part this shit has victimized so and so this woman has been
abusive to this employee this person has done that then we could
trust them.
Okay, simple as that. That's how simple it is.
So there's a court of law and there's a court of public opinion
are we done with this subject or is there more to say
that covers a lot of different questions about it right. Now
let's go to the video of the Tarot in Times Square which as we said
is one of those things that people have debated back and forth but
ultimately now that it's happening I personally personally hope to
see it grow and and move on
and expand because I think the salon they could everywhere is
good
okay
all right let's hear this
volume
TV volume us
above
turn your mic on.
Okay
2000 people attended that's nice
that's it Okay. Good. Good. So they did it for the second time
did this weekend and it's run by social media influencer SQ
another guy who's not using his name is that his name? I guess
we have left as I love these, these now this this was something
where they don't have names. Right. Anyway, looks like he's a
dad. Is he an imam like?
Alright, fair enough. No problem.
He did in collaboration with giving back and droplets of mercy.
Delia Tarak. Attended was family friend said it was important to
provide the space for people to ask questions about Islam isn't an
open unwelcome environments brilliant idea to be honest with
you. If when you start seeing the benefits, I think the fact that
it's happening in the busiest part of the city is part of the world
probably to a
Hope it's still keeps happening every year. It's growing. Alright,
I guess he does it on the first what do you do it on the first
Saturday of the month of Ramadan, the first Saturday night? I think
he does it on. Okay.
So
our brain would tell me when you're ready
at sunset, Quran reciters. Feisal Latif and Dr. Farage hasn't that's
the brother that I sees Instagram all the time Dr. Fata chasin led
the prayers
and began breaking their fast
okay, they distributed more than 2000 meals this wonderful right
motivational speakers Muhammad Abdul Halim also known as hoop
finesse another one with these names for Duma Mohammed aka speak
pure
I guess you have to have a name these days. Unfortunately it's
because of tick tock Yeah. Where it's a lot of these Imams like you
know, they're not even invited anymore because we could get a
tick tock or for half the price and double the reach
crazy. Of course Islamophobia is on the rise our religion is one of
the most misunderstood religions but it's also the fastest growing
says es que
he the event held under the bright neon lights of New York
All right. Under all these advertisements in times squares
opportunity for Muslims come together and help people learn
about Islam. A projector displays verses from the Quran
with English translation Wow. You mean it because Adria Muslims
giving back said the event was an example of Dawa through action.
You don't just preach but they get to see you pray and they give out
food and you answer questions. You don't just say Dawa or do Dawa to
people by pushing pamphlets blah blah blah. Very good. Very good.
Haiku Jasper's who was visiting New York from Germany stumbled
seed. That's what I'm saying. This guy haiku. Jasper's
from Germany is writing a poem or something a haiku. He stumbled
across the event while walking through Times Square. He had never
seen anything like it before. That's exactly the point of six
events. It's a good idea to do in a public so everyone can look and
understand so the tourist guy
All right, let's see your video. I'm gonna basketball do a video
for us. Let's see. Well, that's
collect your thought it's on that side. Please make your way safely
around over there to please does not.
does not go ahead.
Please go go back to the food.
whisperer, right.
You sip a little bit
All right, that's the oh, it rains on the poor people too bad. When
you look at the wind, is a religious prayer for Muslims held
that the
30 days of fasting is that Muslims do in 30 days the Muslims recite
from cover to cover of the Holy Quran. So that's what we're here
to do right now. We're trying to show the world the beauty of the
Quran and how gorgeous it sounds because once it hits your ears, it
goes to your heart and we're trying to open the hearts of the
people tonight by having this amazing event. And I appreciate
everyone who showed up and showed us love it Sam is his advice. It
is sincere advice given to mankind and that advice is there's nothing
worthy of worship except Allah and the Prophet Mohammed along with
Jesus Moses, Abraham and all the messengers mentioned by Allah Are
all prophets of God and this is the religion so that's what it
means
best when Times Square
mashallah vatukoula So there's a few minutes left let's go to the
last few minutes
just recited
and they give some speeches right
so
this guy's got his hot domain vibes on right.
So how many people's 1000 people maybe 500 people
okay
just their official video, by the way.
Is there any data that happened afterwards?
Oh, interested in the permit.
I wonder how the
Federal Chief is a police Chaplain maybe
We're helping them get the permit
Alright, so I think it's a great event what do you think us
should we should we have a Molad there
Hey learn about the Prophet peace be upon him what's wrong with that
that's more appropriate to do in a place like that then Silla? Yeah
because Yeah.
Yeah. Hold on to it. Yeah. Okay, so I'd Nan say it is the last SEC
segment of our of our affairs of the OMA today. Okay.
It's pretty sad what's going on with that net side. Now I'd say it
as you know, he in 1999
his friend, I guess it was his girlfriend at the time. Haman Lee
down in Maryland, she disappeared and she was found dead.
Right she was found dead. And they accused him of the murder. And he
went to jail for many many years.
And only last year so now last year was 2023 he was exonerated.
Okay, so spent 24 years in jail. Okay. Now we have a story.
Okay.
cnn.com has reported that his murder conviction is reinstated.
Let's just see exactly what they mean by this. A Maryland appellate
court on Tuesday reinstated the conviction of Adnan say it. The
man who spent
over two decades behind bars for supposedly allegedly killing Haman
Lee, which
you may have all heard of the landmark Serial podcast.
You listen to the whole thing was addictive. At the time. I remember
being 2015 or something everyone was listening the podcast came out
Thursday.
By Thursday night everyone had listened to it. In a two to one
ruling, the appellate court said the lower court had violated the
rights of the victim's brother, young Lee.
Okay, which was his what was his right to attend a key hearing when
a judge vacated say its conviction leading to his release?
Because the circuit court violated Mr. Lee's right to notice of this
like and his right to attend, they did not inform him that he had the
right to attend.
So the hearing therefore, on the state's motion to vacate. Okay.
Was now invalidated.
This Court has the power and the obligation to remedy those
violations. As long as we can do so without violating Mr. Sade's
right to be free from Double Jeopardy. Double Jeopardy means
it'd be tried of the same case twice. We remand for a new legally
compliant and transparent hearing on the motion to vacate. Now he
has to win this motion a second time.
This time with the brother there. Okay, so what does this look like?
To me? It looks like to me that the brothers lawyer, the brother
was angry at this look, had the lawyer look into it and said, Hey,
okay, we want
we want to redo this. And they found an error that he should have
been there. That's the error that they found.
We remand for a new legally compliant and transparent hearing
on the motion to vacate where Miss Mr. Lee is given notice of the
hearing and sufficient time to allow him to attend in person.
Okay, evidence supporting the motion to vacate as presented and
the court states its reason in support. So he's still may be
the free, but what they have to do is that they have to actually
redo the the motion, essentially, the leaf family is very pleased
with the ruling. So so the leaf family believes it's him who did
it.
That's always what happens like the family of the victim gets
attached to who they think did it. Well, why don't you let the court
decide?
Yeah, they hate it. But here's the thing. Why did you believe that
that why do you believe he did it? Because the court found him
guilty. Right? Well, now the courts telling you he wasn't
guilty. So why don't you believe
The court the second time
I see it all the time family, they get just attached to their theory
of who did the killing.
Justice. Yeah. Someone's in jail. Exactly. It's not him. They're
like coping with Yeah. Which is a lie though. You're lying to
yourself. So it's also like a massive calamity. For them to now
believe that he was actually innocent all these years. That
means just the killers. I bet you the killers already in jail and
some other thing, because I think the real killer in this thing was
someone who was gay. He killed multiple people.
There was this theory that there's this third party and this person,
he was * strangers. Right. And his DNS. Yeah, that guy, Jay.
Yeah, he was fishy. We think it really represents a step towards
transparency and rule of law. You can't have a trial by podcast or a
trial by publicity, Kelly said contending the popular judicial
process was not followed. It's in everyone's interest, including
Miss Mr. Sayid's to have all the evidence aired publicly. Okay. And
she said that the Lee family is not vengeful, we just want the
truth about men is not the guy that we want him out. Okay, that's
good statement. David Stewart Sanford, another leaf family
attorney, similarly told CNN the family was delighted with the
court's decision and the order for a transparent hearing where the
evidence would present an opening. Do the family think that there's
some people in the Maryland court who are trying to get in and out
for personal reasons?
Say it's attorney say he will remain a free man. Okay, so,
Assistant public defender Erica Souter SADES attorney and director
of the Innocence Project clinics at the appellate court reinstated
the conviction, not because the motion to vacate was erroneous,
but because Mr. Lee's brother did not appear. That's it. We agree
with the dissenting judge that the appeal is moot. And that Mr. Lee's
attendance over zoom was sufficient he did attendance is
over zoom, but not in person. So what's the big deal? Souter said
in a statement provided to CNN. All right. There is no basis for
re traumatizing Adnan by returning him to the status of a convicted
felon. For the time being he is a free man. We remain optimistic
that justice will be done. We intend to seek review in
Maryland's highest court
and we'll continue to find out to add next convictions are fully
vacant. Now. Why was it
vacant in the first place? The decision to vacate say its
conviction came eight years after the podcast dug into the case and
raise questions about the conviction and saves legal
representation in explaining her decision to vacate. Baltimore City
Circuit Judge Melissa Finn cited material in the state
investigation that was not properly turned over to the
defense attorneys as well as the existence of two suspects who may
have been improperly cleared as part of the investigation. By the
way, I'd Nance defense lawyer she was a disaster. She was a complete
disaster Adnan's defense lawyer if you want if you listen to the
podcast, she should she's dead. No, right. But he should. If she
was alive, she would be sued because she was an utter disaster.
Why victims brother wanted to redo of the hearing, Lee's brother had
requested a redo of the hearing.
Arguing in part that he didn't have enough notice at 10 person.
The attorneys for Lee
who was able to watch the September proceeding by zoom
previously alleged in court documents that prosecutors and the
circuit court that overturned state's convictions had violated
the brothers rights that happened they allege by failing to give him
adequate notice blah blah blah.
Okay
that's it. It's just it seems to me like a last ditch effort to
just
get him back and I don't think they're gonna win it because they
gotta read
rehash everything now
All right, let's take we only have time for a couple questions
because we got University of Toronto today. At three o'clock
you can follow the University of Toronto.
Yes, turn the camera to us. First you want to just come here
we don't want them to see the mess.
Alright, yes. Oh God.
Okay, so Hamdulillah we have the
we have the great blessing to announce a new program. And this
is going to be open to everyone so people nationwide it is going to
be an in person
program. But brothers especially, we want to reach out to you across
the country.
If you guys have time in summer, we are opening up a summer
intensive. The first of its kind in Sharla. We did a local
intensive, very, very similar to this last year. And it was a huge,
huge success. We had roughly 80 students who came out, and it was
actually quite long, it was 16 weeks. So based on the feedback
that we received, you know, there are some brothers who have the
opportunity to come through. And we want to open this up to you
guys and sisters as well. The thing is, I'll get to that in a
second. We don't have housing available, it's easier for
brothers to find housing, which is why I'm talking specifically about
brothers. But this is going to be a program where you get to see
what Donald FET is doing on a daily and weekly basis. And you
get to cover real texts, real Mattoon that have been studied by
the scholars and are typically studied. And this program is going
to give you all of your first line Inshallah, the intention is that
by the time you complete this program, you will have completed a
text and fill a text and nakida
a taxon Hadith the 40 No, we have
the 40 Hadith of Imam and no, we, and you will have a lot of time
spent with Dr. Shadi as well. Going over to Seoul with We
haven't decided which the soul of text we're going to be studying.
But it's going to be texts in all of your for dine inshallah.
So in terms of the program, let me just I can actually see it, what
are the dates? You know, I'm very bad dates. Yeah.
From June 19. Yeah.
So it's going to start in June 19. And the way that the program is
going to work is that we designed it in a way that someone whose
school, say, for example, you're taking classes at Rutgers, even
though most people are off. Or if you're working, if you have an
internship or a job, or anything like that, then you finish work,
you have time to eat, you know, you finish work at 530, you have
time to eat to get ready. And at nighttime, you're going to be
coming in into you're going to be for the next three hours, seven
o'clock to 10 o'clock, the classes are going to be offered inshallah.
And this is actually what the dolphins students are doing on a
daily basis. So if you're interested in joining it is quite
intense. But to put this into perspective, to show you the work
that we've been doing in Hamdulillah, for the past seven or
eight months, almost a year, inshallah it'll be a year in May.
This is the work that we've been doing on a daily basis, these are
the classes that are offered. And it'll also be an opportunity for
you to mix with the darl FET students as well. So this is
actually required course materials for the data sets class for the
the first class that we have.
So in terms of fic, we're going to be offering two different,
two different options. One is going to be Maliki folk. That's
going to be with Shia Harun, and we're also going to be offering
Hanafi silk, which is going to be taught by both Chuck Murad and
Chef Imran, we're still working on some of the details in sha Allah,
but we can tell you everything that we know so far.
In terms of medical filk, Inshallah, we're going to be
reading
a Kitab, an artery, which is one of the beginner texts that covers
everything. This is like pretty much the first text that you would
study. But it has a lot a lot to do, which is why we actually
waited until the end of the year, because we wanted to do this text
together.
For example, for medical field we've already Al Hamdulillah. Last
year we studied Ashima we are over the summer, which is another one
of these beginner texts. Then we studied Ibn Asha and then we're
going to be completing Xia and then we're going to be coming back
to keytab after he and Sharla for HANA if you fail, you're going to
be studying the book of Imam and Madani is off and moody dean.
And for Arcada
we're going to be offering most likely it's going to be omal
brahim by EMS Sanusi and we may have some classes on our pydata
how we as well, and this is going to be taught by Chef Murad,
Chef Murad Osman and for Hadith Inshallah, we're very excited.
This is the first Hadith class that we've done through Dario
FETs. What we did is that in the beginning of the year for Dora FET
students, we started with the science of Hadith.
And now that we've covered the science of Hadith, we're going to
be actually going into the texts of Hadith themselves. So we're
starting with the text of the amendment. No we, which is well
known by everyone, and we're going to be given commentary on that.
With chef Murad and Chef Imran and possibly shahada and dark chatty
as well, we haven't worked out all of the details. And this hour,
we're going to be having both dhikr and we're also going to be
having classes that we do on Thursday with Dr. Shadi as well.
So if you want to sign up right now, is the best
It's time to do so
it's $150 for Ramadan, Inshallah, there is no online. So just keep
that in mind, you can go on the website and you could sign up, you
could go to darl fest.org/pay.
And you can go on the social medias and look for the link. And
there's some more information on the website as well. And the
website will be continuously updated. But I do recommend sign
up right now, in Ramadan, even by the way, you know, if you're a
college student, and you're not sure, will I be able to find a job
or you know, what will happen? What's my internship situation
going to be like, the sign up, it's $150, we'll refund you if you
can't make it. But at least get your name in and make the sincere
intention that you want to be here and join us in sha Allah. In New
Jersey. We're going to advertise this more and more. So definitely
share this to your friends, to your family, anyone who's
interested and we want to make this into a very big thing. So
duck share, do you have anything to add to that? So it was great
experience for a lot of guys who came last time. And we have
some good hosts here. If you want to come we have Trello ability to
host you. And it's a we're it's busy constant nonstop. It's
literally nonstop. I think Saturday is the only day that we
have that's off. Yeah, right. But Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, once it once Thursday hits its lights out Thursday,
Friday, Sunday, right? So
come come by Inshallah, and
it should be a good summer. Charles, and Dylan are now second
year now. Yeah. This summer, we're entering our second year of data
that's just going to show love built more and more every time.
Yeah. And the program. It's not really just classes. It's also the
community that you're joining. For example, last time that we did
this program in the summer, everyone is off, we had a lot of
time to sit with the Messiah, we would hang out, you know, here in
the, in the classrooms in the library, we'd hang out with the
Messiah until one o'clock sometimes it's a great opportunity
for stuff but as well.
Many, many people who I didn't know, in summertime, they're one
of my closest friends now, because I see them on a daily basis every
single day I'm seeing them. We're all involved in the same thing,
which is to seek knowledge. But there's a lot that we do. You
know, there's, for example, the soup kitchen. If you want to
volunteer, you can also do that. Every Wednesday, we have the soup
kitchen. And we have a lot of activities. We have the masjid
right here as well. And there's always activities going on. Come
for one of the famous MOBA events as well. What do we get you
married? Yeah. And then there's also physical activities, they
play basketball and they have frisbee football. Yeah. Each so
you can actually say fair, very physically fit if you attend both
of those. Yeah. And so there's a group meet, and I'm going to place
the link on the website, I'll place the link everywhere
Inshallah, where you can join. And for example, Sharif, he was our
prototype student to prototype, I don't know what to call it, like,
transfer student, foreign student. And he came through last year, and
he was here for the entirety of the summer. And he stayed with a
bunch of guys from Rutgers in, we have Rutgers off campus, off
campus housing right here. And, you know, he met the guys, we
still he's still take some classes with us online.
So it's a great opportunity. It's just the community that you're
joining in sha Allah, it's not just going to be eight weeks of
classes, it's going to be eight weeks of joining the community,
and Inshallah, we're trying to take the steps to turn this into a
full seminary into a full Theological College in sha Allah.
So there's a lot to do, and definitely spread the word
everywhere that you can on social media, word of mouth, and
definitely recommend the program if you're an ArcView student, then
tell other people about this as well take this to the next level
inshallah. All right, we'll close with the draw. For Wednesday. It
is Wednesday. It is Wednesday, right? Yeah. Ramadan, I lose my
count of days. We'll do our draw. And then I don't know how to get
onto the U T.
If any, anyone from University of Toronto MSA is here you need to
just send me a WhatsApp message or something because I don't know how
to get on to the event. So they just send me the link. And then
all my Bessie will plug us into that link and we'll do that. But
