Salam aleikum, everyone, welcome to the second. Nothing but facts
podcasts where we're only interested in facts and if you
bring something other than facts are not interested, be careful,
you're liable to get rejected. We're studying this book of the
gift of the root and set em do root I guess with a you the gift
of dudes and Salem. Okay. A wonderful book by the, I guess the
whole staff of the Durban South Africa, Dr. madressa, talimogene.
are chatting with Dean, technically. And when we say
another effect, well, where the facts come from all facts, this is
your epistemology one on one or one of three kinds. All your facts
are one of three sources, either from observation, something that
you can do an experiment, and you could see it right in front of
you, or you observe it, right? Like I'm observing this plant or
whatever. Okay, so that's science, that's the realm of science
observation. There's no logic to it. No, there's no logic of why
there's gravity there. It just is. So that's observation. Secondly,
is reason. Okay, two plus two is four has to be a person can't be
dead and alive with the same meanings. Either you're alive or
you're not alive. You can't be both. You either you're pregnant
or you're not pregnant. So that's month up, or logic and math is one
of those sciences and then transmitted knowledge. What you
get from transmission, so language, journalism, like the
local news, okay? History. And Dean, Dean is a transmitted
knowledge. That's why the shorter the chain of transmission, the
better. Alright, the more your dean is in accord to what the past
scholars have said, the closer to the truth, right. So we continue
now on our is really important book, talking about the messenger
of allah sallallahu alayhi wa salam, he says
that, when we talk about the Prophet, we have to think about
the rights that the prophet has over us and he has an immense
amount of rights. Why is that? Because yet the Prophet may have
not brought us into the world like our parents did. But what's the
value of being in this world? If you end up going to *? Right,
and spending eternity in the hellfire? What's more important,
the one who safeguards this life for you are the one who safeguards
the next life. And the prophets I said them is the means that Allah
chose just like Allah chose your parents. Why are your parents
specialty? Allah chose them, right? You didn't choose your
parents and then they didn't choose you. But because Allah
chose that for you, okay, so now you have to give them that
respect. That's what Allah chose for you. So likewise, Allah has
chosen for us, the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa salam to be
our salvation for the ACA. Okay, so all of our eternity. Okay, he
is owed a gratitude for that. Okay, so how long do you owe a
debt of gratitude and
respect to your parents your entire life. Right? No one doubts
that your entire life, okay? Even when even if they're dead, and
they're Muslim, and you have to make dua for them, you still owe
them very well again after their death, which is to make dua for
them.
So likewise Now compare that with the one who safeguarded your eka.
All of your nourishment of the afterlife is by deeds. Where do
you get your deeds from? deeds come from the prophets, I send
them his teachings that you did them and, and all those teachers,
but the top of it is the prophets I sell them so you owe a debt of
gratitude for how long for an eternity and this is the response
of someone says, Be careful of phrasing the messenger too much.
Okay. When Allah says that he makes the law upon the Messenger
of Peace be upon him.
How, what is the amount of time that Allah does this? Well Allah
to violence that is Manasa he's Manasa he's transcended beyond
time. There's no today tomorrow and the day after for Allah
disease, the creator of time, you have to understand this. He
created time. So his salah, and salam, his salah upon the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa Salam
is eternal is pre eternal. So there's no limit. What Salah and
salaam can we do on the Prophet peace be upon him? Right? Let's
say you did it your whole life 80 years, what is 80 years next to an
eternity? So this, you know, myth and the statement which is alive,
that oh, you can make Salah and praise the Prophet too much.
Right? The only
How is it gonna be too much when you're only doing it for at a
sliver of an existence. Whereas Allah has done it pre eternally
and eternally into the future. So this is where that type of
statement is a complete myth. And you could never fulfill the sugar
in the same way that you can never really fulfill gratitude to your
parents. You can never really fulfill gratitude to the prophets
Allah when he was setting them and melt them. Yes, goodness, let me
ask ALLAH, if you're not thinking grateful to the people that Allah
sent you, then you're not thankful to Allah, Allah sent these people
to you, and he's commanding us to thank them. So how do we fulfill
this chakra and this this right, this Huck upon the messenger of
allah sallallahu he was, number one is love. There must be love of
the messenger. He puts love number first, but he puts firm belief
number two, I think you really have to put him the opposite,
right. And maybe there is a logic but love first because before
saying Abu Bakr and say the Khadija they love the Prophet
peace before they had firm belief in Him, they had love for him so
that this logic doesn't make sense, because they love the
Prophet before they had from believing. And oftentimes the love
of the messenger feeds your firm belief. Because remember, people
make conclusions about what they believe and what they do, based
true, really based on their heart, and then their mind comes up with
a justification. That's the truth. If you think it's otherwise,
fortunately tell you, you're mistaken. People, they love
something first, then they justify it. Okay? And this is exactly why
he says the love of the Prophet comes first. And then from belief
comes second. Love feeds belief and really in the sense, they're
both very close, closely tied. Now, if you truly believe in him,
what is the sign what's the reflection that you truly believe
in the Prophet peace be upon him? Obedience, absolute obedience to
the messenger peace be upon him. And then what's number four,
sending Salah and salam upon him.
So these are the four obligations that are diligently held by the
one who truly wants to be connected to the messenger of
allah sallallahu alayhi wa salam, and in this day and age, if you
want your deen to be saved, okay? You need to know.
You need to be connected to the prophets of Allah when he was
selling because he's the one who teaches us how to implement the
Quran. How does Allah want to be worshipped? Now worship Allah any
old way, any way that you want to know it's going to be through the
messenger of allah sallallahu it was some people said, Why did some
methods of FIP survive and others didn't? Someone said, and Allah
knows best, but the ones who who had a greater risk and love for
the prophets of Allah what He was telling them, their mother had
survived. And Allah knows best if that's true without decreasing
from anybody of the other motherhood. So let's take a look
at the obligation of love.
That we inculcate for Satan codename Satan, Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, it's reported in the Hadith that your
Eman is not perfect. Until one loves the Messenger of Allah more
than he loves himself and his children and all people so Okay,
let's talk about this now because you may like whoa, I'm not even a
movement that no, the love of the province I sent him is really two
things. One of its rational
and one of it is natural. What is binding upon Us is that which we
have in in our control, because Allah doesn't put anything binding
upon you unless it's on your in your control. So which one is in
our control? The natural they need the rational love of the prof.
But what does that mean rational love of the Prophet it means that
you put the prophets as a priority obedience to Him followership of
him. And all these other things. You put that as a priority, even
if that means you would displease your children, you would displease
your parents, you would displease all people. So when he says that
when the Prophet said the same says that it the the scholar said,
had to say, Well, what does that mean?
And they divided into these two types. Rational love is in my
mind, I know he is owed first, I'm going to pay my debt of gratitude
to the messenger first, then to everybody else. obedience to his
sunnah first, then everybody else we can all do that rationally.
Then they said, Well, what's extra? Is the natural love of the
prophets of Allah, what He was saying, and I see a lot of
comments, we're gonna get to the comments. We're not even going to
be long today. But we're gonna get to the comments. The natural love
of the Prophet that comes, if it comes to people, it comes with x
with with years of exposure to the messengers of Allah was and seen
the benefits of following his example. And belief in Him and
Salon Sam upon him. All right. So in that case, that natural love,
is it, you can't control that. But you can control the deeds that
lead you to it. You see the difference? And that's why when we
say love of the messenger first, right, that we're talking about,
not the rational love. And then the natural love follows after
that.
On one occasion, saying that, Oh, Monica, Bob, he addressed the
messenger. So I sent him and he said, O Messenger of Allah. I love
you more than everyone except myself, because he's been honest
about myself first, right? The messenger sighs Saddam said, No,
by the one in whose hands is my soul. Okay. Not even yourself
until you love me more than you have more love for me than your
own self. Why? Because that's what's what's what's justified if
the it's the it's the messenger has been created as the means to
save your eternity.
Right? What value is yourself your love of yourself if you're in the
fire? Right? So you owe that eternity to the Prophet sighs I
know. And that's, and then immediately say enormous pause for
a second. And he said, Now even you are even my own self and the
prophesies of them said, now you have perfected your Eman. Now it's
complete.
Without us developing love for the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam, all right, then we will never absorb his commandments and
prohibitions, which are Allah's commandments and prohibitions in
the right way, will never absorb it in the right way. And that's
why the love of the Prophet peace be upon him. It's really paramount
in in the religion, and he's the example. So
look at the Sahaba their condition is not that they memorize certain
Quran to become a Sahaba. And do this that on the other? No, you
just were in the presence of the prophets. I saw them as a
believer, even for a moment and died upon that same belief. Right?
Like you didn't apostate after that. All right. And even if you
say that you have to have met the Prophet again, because if you pass
dated, you nullified your companionship. If the Prophet is
still a lot, then you met him again, then you become a Sahabi.
Okay, because there was one case where a man, he, he was a Sahaba,
he became Muslim in the time of the Prophet, he apostates he goes,
joins the Meccans again,
the prophesy Salam returns to Allah he passes away, this man
comes back becomes a Muslim again, in a time of Satan Abu Bakr is
used to hobby or not, he's not x. All right, he's not as a hobby.
Alright, so this is the importance of the love of the Prophet
sallallahu, loving the Messenger of Peace be upon him. So
and think about it, Rationally speaking, when you when you see
people behave, they always do what they love to do,
they'll find a way to do it doesn't make a difference, right?
People do what they love. So that's where you have to focus
more about the heart and emotion and love because that's what
people are going to do. And if you look at all the marketers, what do
they do? They just try to make you love the product he doesn't eat
doesn't have to make sense. The purchase doesn't have to make
sense, right? Financially, you just love it. So you buy it
because you love it. Right? People act more on emotion than they
actually realize. And the intellect. It's really almost like
it's almost like, not clouded with it's it's informed by emotions,
more than anything else.
All right, let's look at the second obligation. All right.
We have to have absolute firm confidence and belief that the
messenger SallAllahu wasallam spoke the truth, okay.
And that what he's upon is our salvation. There can't be a
discussion about this.
You have to wholeheartedly accept everything he tells us. Now we
have to talk about this from our penis standpoint. When we say
this, we mean those narrations of Hadith that are sound
They have come to us from numerous sources and sound sources. Now, if
something has come to us of a narration, this is like RP two
point here. That is a single solitary narration, let's say came
from once a hobby.
And we don't understand it, it's sort of moved to Shabbat. For us,
it's not exactly clear to us what it means, then we are allowed to
say that we will suspend this narration, we're just going to
suspend it, we're not going to say that we don't believe in it,
right? But we're not going to make a conclusion about what it means.
And we may suspend it. So this is this allowed for Muslims to do
that. Right? For me, it's really the scholars, it's up to the
scholars to do that those are the Hadith that may be a bit confusing
to a person and there's no other corroboration neither the Quran
and nor in other Hadith, alright, so we just suspend it. And he
mimetic did this on a number of guests. We don't reject the
Hadith, but he just suspend it, and he didn't preach it. Okay, so,
but leaving that aside, if the prophet was to tell us something,
and we're absolutely certain, in his narration, and its soundness,
and the language, the meaning, we're absolutely certain, we
accept it. And if you have trouble accepting it, well, what do you
do? And this is possible, because we're No, Allah, we're living in a
society where certain talking points are repeated over and over,
right? Whether it's from, and I consider these to be like
religions, because their ethical or their and their beliefs, based
upon certain assumptions, in the same way that Christianity has its
own assumptions, that this is the source of truth is the King James
Bible. That's an assumption, we prove that to me, that it came
from Jesus, there's no proof for that. That's an assumption. It's a
belief that you have, and then you extract ideas from that. All
right, in the same way, that today in the secular world, they have
their own assumptions, okay, these aren't This is not No one came
from heaven, and said, We have to believe in these things. And they
extract from these assumptions, certain beliefs, and then they
have their people there do not go and repeat these talking points.
So you have right wing talking points, you have left wing talking
points, you have all these things, right. So, so people accept these
things. That's their belief, right? For for us, we're going to
go back to the messenger of allah sallallahu sallam, first and
foremost, and that's what we're going to take from him. And we're
going to look at these and have absolute confidence that this is
what's true. So you have to understand that when you're taking
the prophet as your example, all right, you taking them as your
example.
It's your there may be a time where some you've been taught
something, and the Prophet is giving you something different.
Especially if you're into like morality and justice, you may have
absorbed something of left wing version of things, or a right wing
version of things. Okay. In the old days, it was a communist
socialist version, and a capitalist version of things. All
right, today, it's a progressive version of things, or
nationalists, you know, like, the right wing nationalist groups. And
these are the moralities that are in play today in the arena, when
we take the provinces and we're saying, I'm getting rid of all
that. And if something from the province is done, them comes that
matches that stuff. It's just a coincidence, right? So you got to
understand, we're clearing the slate for the messenger. If you're
sincere about this, let's clear the slate. And I'm a clean slate
or messenger of Allah put whatever you want on this lake. And that's
the approach of a true believer, okay, I'm not going to try to fit
the truth of the deen into some other mentality that I have. Now
there are cultural things. But there are also moral things that
are completely based on assumptions. And we have to
declare over and over and over, we don't accept any of these
assumptions are not my assumptions. And the same way that
Hindu assumptions we know that that's not our assumption, no one
when a Hindu comes to talk to you, you know, he's got his religion, I
got mine. He's got his assumed truths about reincarnation, that's
your belief. And I got mine. He doesn't try to apply mind to his
to me, and I'm not going to apply mine to him. I'm not gonna say
hey, you're gonna concede? No, he doesn't believe in that. I'm not
exactly Hey, your drinking company. He doesn't believe in my
assumptions, or what is the truth of Islam? So in the same way,
whenever you're talking about Hadith, you're talking about the
prophets I send them clear the slate
This is Nicholas clear this late. And whatever a messenger of Allah
gives, if I have a hard time believing it. I ask Allah to
Allah, Oh Allah, make my heart settle with what is true. And if
you ever have a question, oh my gosh, I can't believe this hadith
it's really shocking to me. Go to the books of Islamic law. Don't
judge the Hadith by yourself because you may be jamming a
hadith into yourself that you don't have to you may have totally
misunderstood it. Let me give you an example. There's a famous
Hadith the prophets I send them said, Whoever looks into the sky,
while praying is gonna go blind. Alright, well why did the Prophet
say this? Now go look at the shutter of that hadith. Prophesy
Selim said I saw some Sahaba praying, okay, and looking up in
the sky.
These are maybe some nomads that came, they're barely learning. So
the Prophet said, don't look up when you pray. Don't look up in
the sky when you pray. second time, third time, now the fourth
time, the Prophet, they're not paying attention. Because some of
these nomads they don't they weren't like the other companions,
okay, of course their companions, but not like the other companions
who are trained disciples of the prophets, students. So what did
the rabbit den say? Prophet den said he had to get their attention
somehow. And he got their attention by saying,
Whoever looks up into the sky, he may lose his eyesight. So they got
scared and they stopped looking up in the sky. Okay. So you have to
understand the background behind Hadith before you read a hadith
and you get so startled, because we have to make sure that you we
never have a reaction to something the Prophet says that's negative.
That's what the idea of completing our Eman
is the idea that whatever the Prophet brought, we're so
comfortable with it. We're pleased with it. The prophesy seven said
none of you have come perfected their faith until his whim and
desire is in accord with what I have brought.
Now you may know I had taught them how to Hakuna Hawa. Huzzah and
imagine. So this is why we need constant exposure to knowledge of
the deen so that we get explanations so that we were
really comfortable with everything.
So this is the concept of, you know how we're going to have firm
belief and confidence in the prophets. I said it is by constant
exposure and understanding. What is it that is Arpita? And is law
from the Hadith. And what is it that isn't?
Is not every single a hadith is something acted upon? There's had
you better week for example. All right, so let's take another look
at this.
One of the ways in which we attain firm belief and confidence in the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is constantly examining the
results
of his students, which we call this a hub. Right? What is the
result? Like? What's the scoreboard yesterday? I talked
about the scoreboard, what's the scoreboard here? Okay, the
scoreboard is what's the result, let's take a look at what these
you know, people are always telling you, this is how you
should raise your children. This is how you shouldn't raise your
children. I don't want to know your theories. I want to see your
children. Let me see your kids. They're all these people and and,
and the LGBT lobby is into this the transgender lobbies. And
they're all telling us what we should teach our kids in schools.
And what we should do with our kids, when they're born, in terms
of their gender, and that they should give us a choice. Hold on a
second, you guys all live a lifestyle. You chose not to have
kids while you get involved in my kids. You chose to live a type of
life, you're not involved with kids. So stay out of it. Leave me
to raise my kids that way I want to raise them. You don't get
involved in programming my kid if I'm walking, right? And during
COVID, everyone's taking walks, right. And I started, I ignored
the parent. And I started preaching something to one of the
neighbor's kids, that's going to be a fight in the neighborhood.
Right? So why is it that these absolute strangers could come from
online or wherever they come from? All right, and try to get involved
in the local libraries in the in the elementary schools? What is
your obsession with people's kids? Right? You chose not to have kids.
So stay out of it, and get out of my business. My kids are my
business. Right? Let me teach them how I want to teach them this. Oh,
you're they're not given a chance to see the whole gamut of the
whole world. Okay. Tough luck. I don't want to give him a chance.
Do we put anything in our mouth? Right? Do I just go eat this leaf?
Eat a berry off a tree? You I just put anything our mouth? Or do I
filter? What goes into my kid's mouth? You can kill an infant, if
you give him the wrong foods at the wrong time.
Right? So who decides that? And who's who's guilty? If he mistakes
that you let your baby eat? Popcorn? Right and you know
they're gonna choke? Right? That's why you don't give babies popcorn
toddlers, you don't give them popcorn, there's little peels will
they'll choke on it? Okay, but if you did, what is the court gonna
do take you for criminal negligence, right? So you can be
found guilty for not filtering your kids food.
The same way, you're going to be found guilty in our worldview. And
in many other worldviews. If you don't filter what your kid sees
every day and believes and is exposed to, we believe. And this
is the truth, Allah Todd is going to take you to account. He takes
you to account if you don't filter in the same way that the secular
court of law right here in North Brunswick, they'll take me to
account if I let my kid go walk wherever he wants, eat whatever he
ends up dying or getting hit by a car. That's criminal negligence of
a parent. Well, Allah subhanaw taala looks at same way the
Christians believe the same thing. The Hindus probably believe the
same thing about Ganesh.
The Jews, religious Jews probably believe the same thing and every
other religion believes the same thing. Okay. And likewise, the
progressives believe the same
think, Oh, you expose your kid to, you know, some kind of right wing
thing, you know you're guilty in some sort of way, right?
Same thing, why don't expose his stomach to everything I filter it.
Likewise I filter the ideas that they're going to come in their
heads, right. And for parents out there, I got a nice lockbox I
bought from I can't remember where I bought it from and all these
electronic devices right at night I put them in there and I liked
the lockbox and I feel safe. Why? Because these electronic devices
on the internet, it's a bunch of strangers. And these strangers are
trying to tell you you what to do what your what to think and your
kids what to think and what to love. So why am I letting
strangers in the house? Do you lock the door, I locked the door
every night. Every night I do a recount little lap around the
house, I lock up all the doors, I look up all the windows, and I
make sure everything is safe. The cars are locked. Everything is
safe, right? It's just a little routine that everyone does. Why?
Because there are strangers. I don't want strangers coming in my
house. I don't want them looking in the windows, I put the blinds
down. There are strangers here. This hanging around the house is
far worse than the door unlocked. I can guarantee I'll leave the
door unlocked 100 days out of the year. And we've always many times
slept with the dude with the garage door open neighbor comes by
oh, by the way, I was driving by your garage doors open right? All
the time, nothing happened. I can let my kid I bet you walk around
the neighborhood. Okay, until five in the morning, nothing's 100
times 99 times out of 100 Absolutely nothing is going to
happen. But hang around and and go on this until five in the morning.
I guarantee you something very bad is gonna happen. Right?
Eventually, some crazy ideas. We filter ideas. I don't care what
the progressives say I don't believe in the principles that
open your let your kids choose and let you
you don't use you don't have kids. You chose not to have kids. And if
you have kids, I want to see the result. So that's why we're saying
we don't want to I don't want to see theory. I want to see the
results. So how does all this tie back to the prophets? I said them
and confidence in him. We don't need to hear the theory of the
prophets. I said, Let's just look at the results. Let's look at his
companions. What did they do? In every front? They were the epitome
of success. Let's look at the spiritual front. From the
spiritual front, we still honor them and take religion from them.
Right? Someone says I interested this he said this a number of
writers and they say normally, we take our life guidance from them.
All of our fear is based on them. That's number one. Number two, all
right, it's good to be a religious thing. But we live in this world
or let's take a look what they did to the world. How about conquering
the entire world, the known world to them at that time and their
hemisphere
that they're hemisphere, by Indian China's on one side.
Persia, Greece, the or the Persia and the Byzantine Empire on the
other side.
They're on there in the Western Conference. They there in the
Western Hemisphere, they conquered their entire hemisphere. And in
time, it spread to West Africa, all the way to n de Lucia, down
into Sub Saharan Africa, okay, up into Spain, then Anatolia. And
then everywhere.
We got up to a hadith about Zubair, even in a worm Zubaydah
with a worm. He said that he sold a piece of land and came with set
the amount of land that he had, which 70,000 gold coins do, you
know, like insane amount of money? That is, right. And because of the
way the Prophet taught them the deen he gathered immediately, he
told his wife we're not spending that is not money smart spending
the night in our house. Okay, so look at how they reacted when they
did succeed in the dunya. How did they react? This is nice. So
gather he had just had one of his sons gather all of the family and
they distributed it. He just distributed it all to the family.
Right? They were spiritual and secular success stories, all of
them. One of them. He said I was one of the first seven Muslims and
I bear witness today that all seven of our governors of cities,
their governors of cities, so the prophets I said him he knows we
live in this world. I don't necessarily just want to see a
religious success. I want to see a worldly success because human
nature we all have this I personally you want to just be a
religious success. Not really I want to also be a worldly success,
right? I want my wife and kids to look up and say Masha Allah Allah
we live well within this under this roof. We live happy under
this roof. I got the stuff that other people don't may not have.
That's what I want them to say. And I want them to also say and I
want them to be able to react with it. In the right in the in the in
a way that would please the people of the deen no Keba no arrogance,
humility. So six spiritual success
and worldly success. That's what the prophet that when you look at
that you gain firm confidence that there was a man of the truth. I
don't care about arguing
I don't care about proofs. Give me the result. Right. And this is the
way we operate. Okay, so we covered here, love the message of
peace be upon him. And we covered here, the obligation of firm
belief and confidence. Anytime that there's any doubt, just look
at the sahaba. That's the result. That's the scoreboard. I want to
see results. He gave us results. Province size seven gave us
results. In the same way. You want a medical school, you want to have
a college, you want a teacher? All right, good. I don't need to see
your curriculum on paper. Do you know how easy it is to put a
curriculum on paper, I could put one, I could put the best
curriculum on paper in fifth 15 minutes for an entire Islamic
college that makes zero value. I need to see what the students look
like. If they have Keba. They study with you for 10 years and
like 10 out of 10 have Kibber they have arrogance issues, or they're
harsh, where they're ignorant,
that I got no no use for your curriculum. Right. So this is one
of the best ways and that's why they say the vicar of the Sahaba
Alright, examining the Sahaba and the lives of the companions
is actually one of the best ways to have confidence in the province
I sent him because that's the result.
All right, let's start looking at the comments. Now. Here we go.
Some love. Kimberly Torres, she says it's sad that we have to
discuss this. All right, we are so far May Allah fill our hearts with
immense love with the Messenger of Allah at ease. And I guarantee you
you're she's 100%, right? That there are people
they cringe Muslims. And some of them are teachers, they cringe
when you talk too much about the messenger of allah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam.
I want you to look around, and now have a sensor in your mind.
Whenever you hear Islamic discourse, see where is the
messenger in this discourse, and then start making a mental
categorization. Okay, that this this and I'm not even going to
tell you what the conclusion is going to be because you're going
to come to a conclusion where the messenger sighs enemies lifted and
elevated in the discourse, and is always talked about in connection.
I mean, when we talk about Aveda, we bring it back to the Prophet
when we talk about FIP we bring it back to the Prophet when we talk
about spirituality bring back to the Prophet, everything we do we
bring back to the prophet of course, the the Quran, and the
messenger sighs. But why is there really no difference? The
messenger is the example of the application of the Quran, right?
You ever see someone say, we have to have a teacher? What is the
value of the teacher, the value of the teacher, he's the application
of the knowledge, you get to see how it's applied. Okay, so having
a teacher is the same as studying, you know, a book, it's better
because you get to see the application. And I want you to
start comparing,
what is the environment? Like what is the feel, and the results of
those Islamic environments that make a lot of talk about the
prophets I send them versus those that don't?
And what is the type of person who focuses a lot on the messenger and
those that don't start making a comparison? Okay. Alicia says Will
this be recorded? And the answer is as Fatima she says, Yes, we put
it on this page and on YouTube, and on SoundCloud, under the
playlists, nothing but facts. Okay, because we're not interested
in anything but facts.
You're gonna bring anything beyond some facts, you're gonna bring
nonsense or progressive talk? Talking Points, not interested.
Alright.
We have to reminder here. All of our classes start next week, don't
miss out on the classes. These are. We're talking here. But you
got to start out building yourself up as a student of knowledge. Get
what's the difference? The common listen, he listens to speeches,
and they benefit him and he moves on. But the student of knowledge
you need to start being a student of knowledge. Even if it's one
hour a week, he starts caring about the sources of knowledge.
And he gets a curriculum, he starts understanding what is the
curriculum of knowledge and he starts building one at a time. All
right, so become students of knowledge sign up Jomo Ali's
Arabic course. Okay, Intro to Arabic Sign up now we have Islamic
history. We got Hanafi. Maliki, we got all these classes. All right,
that you can go 15 online classes and 30 pre recorded classes.
Right. And we have people they never done any online classes
because of their timezone. Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia,
but they all attend. You know, they watch the pre recorded
classes and they ask questions on the WhatsApp group. So the way
ArcView works is there there is a place for all the pre recorded
classes. Then there's a Google classroom with links for the
current live classes. And then there's a WhatsApp group for
discussion and hummed it up for the team has done such a good job
and so many people are benefiting and it's only 10 bucks a month.
You know that you're spending on Disney six bucks a month on
Netflix like 17 bucks a month wasting your time and have this
haram Alright, so make Toba by signing up on our queue and
learning something
and assess it
someone believes that salah and the prophets Aysen can be
excessive That's an insane belief. Would this be considered to be
schicke such as a claim that entertaining the logical
positivists surpassing Allah Allah in one of his actions?
So let me get this again. If someone believes that Salah on the
Prophet can be excessive now what is excess? The only the shutter a
definition of excess is that it blocks you from another
obligation.
So if you did Salam, the prophet from
from the hood all the way to Maghrib and you skip to us
something that probably has never happened in the history of the
OMA. We would say yeah, you're you got problems, right that person
has problems. Okay. Would this be considered should since such a
claim is entertaining the logical possibility of surpassing Alon one
of his actions? No, we won't say it that way. It really because but
we would say just that the person should be you add up you add the
means that the the salt in the governor should
teach him some manners. Okay. In whatever way he wants. If someone
goes around saying oh salon the profits excessive. You're like,
oh, that's like an insult. Alright, and you're incorrect and
you're spreading something that's a bit odd. And you should be
giving a Tassie punishment.
Send them to Alex so set them straight. And as Akhmad also says,
slightly unrelated question, what is the significance of reciting
facts at the end of gatherings at graves at news conferences? or new
news of someone's passing etc. Any Quran? We are allowed to give the
Philip for it. Okay. Well that's to give the Philip for it. And
that's that's the idea that recite facts had to do with the top and
the amount of Quran the mother of the Quran is a Facha. That's why
they do that.
Is it a recommendation to kiss the thumb and wipe the eyes there is a
weak Hadith that says that when the malevolent says Mohammed, a
shadow no hombre Sula, that there's a weak Edita saying that
Abu Bakr used to do this case is
and the reason and push it onto his and rub it against his eyes.
It's a weak Hadith. And they do that in Teddy and for example, and
they say that Adam it Salaam is that show me Your most Beloved
Messenger, and the light of the Prophet came on to his thumbs. So
he kissed it, and he put it on to his eyes. And there you can find
that so weak Hadith, but they act upon it as you can act upon some
wicked deeds.
Shabana says,
I'm sorry, I revised all the names, that should be Shabana.
Some people say that the laws of city AI were made for
circumstances, as we now have new circumstances, we need to use our
own logic to decide what's right for us, for lack of modern fits
our system, perhaps a failure of open discussion of diverse issues.
To the rule of thumb, is that the shitty I was made for all times,
then if we come and find that there is something that would
affect our life,
very important question that Shabbat as
it affects our life, and it or makes it impossible to live, like
very hard
difficulty to live,
then, who is allowed to make this assessment? The scholars not as
common folk, right? Someone like me, you have to know the rank of
the person you're listening to transmitter transmitter of what is
known, okay, in by the majority of whatever method that we're talking
about, and I'm going to teach you fit from the medical method, but
not from the Fit method. Okay. That's what I want to transmit,
whatever I'm going to say, if it's, if it's the dominant opinion
of those books, that's it. If it's not, then you bring it to me, I
make the correction. That's the policy. It's like a policy, who
can now give a fetch well, as someone who is a master in one of
the four schools of thought and using the precedent set in that,
in that method, they could make analogies and give fatawa.
So it's very important to say that, yes, fatawa do exist, and
they're necessary, but, but for whom it's not open ended thing.
What is open ended the ability to study and become a Mufti. So oh,
you can't limit religion to what the scholars say? Of course we
can. But what we don't limit is who the scholars are. Are you
allowed to go prescribing medicine? Are you allowed to go
give financial advice, you know, that it's actually illegal to give
financial advice unless you're part of a like an insured
institution? Right.
financial advice about dollars and cents, that money comes and goes.
medical advice. Dr. Oz was almost like taken in front of the Senate
dragged in front of the Senate for giving, you know what seemed to be
medical advice, because he's promoting certain things, and he's
a doctor right now. So this is something that I hope it answers
Shavon his question, but it's very important. Let them
masters of the methods give the fatawa
not anybody else
answer says isn't it possible Hadith was about the prayer and
they was looking at the sun the sky have it it wasn't really it
could be but it wasn't really that wasn't the shutter in there
and get on your Lopez reminds us that all we're interested here is
nothing but facts you know bring some other nonsense not interested
Alright folks, let us let's see what else is what other comments
let's see where we are at the comma let's refresh the page
All right, let's refresh refresh this page and see what's going on
couple other comments here. I had an argument Sidra Sidra Azzam
says, I had an argument some people got angry that we don't
always say sort of Allah when he was salam or Subhana wa Tada when
addressing Allah. But we always say some Allah when he was telling
him how should we respond to them? It's very simple, quite answer is
that
the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
said,
Stingy is the one who does not make Salah and said I'm upon me he
stingy on himself. That's number one. Number two, Allah Himself
says Oh, you who believe since Allah and Sam upon the messenger,
there is no specific commandment of saying, Oh, you who believe say
Subhana wa Tada or Bucha daddy with the Quran or xojo. One
Allah's mentioned. That's what
Ziad Shivani says, and medically fit can we say out loud the sort
of what's on the Nebby when he's mentioned during the cookbook? Or
is it haram as for normal talk, it's not considered for talking
but it is considered it may distract others so you can just
say it on your lips.
Some scholars propagate fifth of minorities, I'm telling you, if
you need a FET to go to the masters of one of the methods who
is authorized by the scholars of that method to give fatwah about
contemporary matters we call that in which to head for no as it no
as in means the new events that have happened and he's in which
dead in that how's he do which He had done that by comparing
the new matter with the matters discussed in his method
All right, that's it. We're good to go for today. Does that come a
little later? So Subhana Allah humblebee hammock, shuddering La
ilaha illa and iStockphoto quantity with eek will also in
Santa Fe hostel. Illa Latina and who administer the hot water,

classes starting Sunday, you can sign up there
Lavon Brown, last question.
injury time question. Would you recommend fit councils in regions
where the 50s in particular that are not known?
Honestly, some of the fifth councils that I have seen, they
the scholars that are no offense to them, they're not authorized in
any of the methods as much dead for no as no offense to them. So I
just go, and that's why you study, if you join it join up with any
fifth study of any method. And there's one of the best things
that arc view does is it will connect you to the elders of that
method. Shafi Hanafi, Maliki humbly, even, okay. The senior
scholars are those mother who are authorized to give the photo in
Noah's
Abu Bakar, Sharif, love of the province I sent it being natural
and rational is that through a medical lens, not really, it's
just something that is you see you mentioned and a lot of muda have
not limited to the Maliki school.
