00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			which
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:23
			today is Tuesday. And on Tuesday
as you know, we study the Tafseer
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			of the Quran and we read from one
of the bests toughest year
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:34
			ciruit Baba, we, alright, why is

00:00:34 --> 00:00:37
			learn something yet at the same
time? It's not long winded.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			Neither is it what, jeez, very
thin.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:47
			Nor is it there's too much to
Weststar or expansion on every
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:51
			single little subject that would
make you feel that you're not
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			actually
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			progressing in the reading No.
tafsir is never about.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:04
			It's never really about advancing
quickly in anything. Okay, but
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:07

			three, I'm going to read from a
little dot book actually made for
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:31
			children. But you should never see
a dot book, except that you read
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:35
			something from it. Right read and
you never know which door is going
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			to be accepted and do not is
something that should never
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:43
			be taken for granted. Or oh, I
know this. It's not about knowing,
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:48
			constantly non stop. supplication
is our way and that is the way
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51
			that is what Allah wants from us.
That is what Allah loves from us.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
			Okay, so let's open up
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58
			all the different chats to see who
we got on board today. We had a
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:02
			great audience yesterday and a
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:12
			lot of interaction on the stream.
Okay. And let us open up instance
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:15
			and make sure everyone's here by
the way, did you guys see Maureen?
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19

00:02:19 --> 00:02:22
			podcast. Did you guys see
Maureen's
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:27
			the stuff that he's putting up on
Instagram? He's become like, a
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:31
			carpenter. Right? He's become a
carpenter.
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			The Christians are gonna get upset
with you. You're rivaling there.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:39
			You know, he's become a really
he's big. It's impressive.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			Absolutely.
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			All right, he just monitor him.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:48
			Ka here macchia Illa Allah
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			Allah Falletta
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			it is a Meccan Surah
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:05
			Surah it's a tough baboon. It's a
Meccan Surah minus three is which
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:09
			are Yeah, you're letting me know
in a minute as magical until the
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:17
			end. Okay, so the last three ideas
are not are from Medina. Okay. The
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:22
			last three eyes are from Edina.
The rest of the SUTA is mucky.
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:27
			And he begins by saying regarding
the first two ads Bismillah R
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			Rahman r Rahim you said Behold,
EMF is similar to Murphy's Law
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:35
			Homolka Allah Al Hamdulillah, who
Allah Felicia and Kadir who Allah
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:40
			the Calaca, confirming carefully
Ruhlman commitment will long be
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:41
			met by Luna Belsey
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:48
			Caleb nobis in Allah halacha Benny
Adam Mina and McAfee era from
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:51
			mejor E to whom yarmulke Yama
Tikka Masala, Cava Mina kathira.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:57
			Who will lead the kala Coco
hickory created you. All right,
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:02
			and some of you are men and some
of you are careful. And that is
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:07
			always what boggles the minds of
many people who try to think about
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:12
			this. And sometimes I think they
are looking for errors in the deen
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:15
			and saying, oh, Allah created me a
catheter, then what's the point?
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:19
			We say to you look, is your lived
experience? Do you have choices or
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:22
			not? Man came to one of the
scholars and said this. So the
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:26
			scholar took a rock and he hit him
with it. Right? And you know, what
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			are you doing this for? Because
I'm asking questions. It was
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:28
			written.
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:33
			It was destined that I throw rocks
at you is that it's not an excuse.
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:36
			Okay? It's not an excuse for me.
It's not excuse for you. What is
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:41
			the lived experience discussion
over the lived experience here is
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:46
			that we have choices. That's what
matters. We have enough of that. A
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:52
			will to render us innocent or
guilty. Could you imagine if
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:54
			this
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59
			sense of pure predestination or
this understanding or
		
00:04:59 --> 00:04:59
			misunderstanding
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			predestination was admitted into
law.
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:07
			It was innocent than, well, he's
not guilty. There's no innocence
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:11
			and guilt. He just that's just his
DNA made him do it. This is the
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:16
			podria. The Korea or the jabariya.
There's a group called the Jabra
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:21
			way back in Islamic history.
Jeopardy means force. We get the
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:25
			word algebra from that, too. So if
I say x plus three equals five,
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:31
			that equation forces x to be two,
right? Two plus two equals five.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:36
			So Jabra is force. So the jebadiah
believed we're forced to do
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:37
			everything.
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:43
			That's what they believed. So they
were refuted. And the opposite
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:46
			side was the cutter, you know,
every even Allah doesn't
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:52
			know what's gonna happen tomorrow.
We do our actions, all of our
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:57
			actions. So that these are the two
extremes, the Khazaria no cutter,
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:01
			and the Jabra, everything is
forced today, to Djibouti, we do
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:04
			have a new version of the
jabariya. And the new version of
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:09
			the jabariya. They're the they're
usually the biologists. And they
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			hold that
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:16
			you're just wired to do what
you're doing. Right with your
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:20
			wiring. Put in this setting,
you're going to produce this
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:26
			result with your with your wiring
the way Habib is wired, given all
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:31
			the factors that he's been handed
in life, he has no option except
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:36
			to do what he's doing now. Right?
To react the way he's reacting. We
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:40
			said, well, how do you know that?
Right? They, they laugh off free?
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:44
			Will that that you have a Free
Will they laugh it off? So we do
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:49
			have a modern version of the
jabariya the Asuna state and the
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:54
			data of Islam states you do have
enough of a choice in your actions
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:59
			within a set confines that Allah
created for you, guy to take
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:07
			action that renders you innocent
or guilty. Okay. And, and Allah
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:09
			knows this in advance. That's it.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:15
			Designed by Allah Jabri and Korea.
Yes, you spelled it correctly. You
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:15
			got it right.
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:20
			Okay, so this is what we say you
have enough freewill.
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:22
			All right.
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:27
			That you can be rendered innocent
or guilty. And in Islam, we
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:31
			elevate free will very highly when
it comes to our own action.
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:37
			And that does not in any way
impugn the knowledge of Allah,
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:41
			that Allah has knowledge of what
we were doing and that our actions
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:46
			are created by Allah subhanho wa
taala. And we, we earned them, let
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:52
			him a cassava 20 Makossa but it
has what it earns, okay. And Allah
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:56
			says Calaca como Mata Malone, He
created you and your actions.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:01
			These are two verses that's that
outline our Aveda. Regarding God's
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:06
			knowledge, predestination and
freewill. So what do we have
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:10
			something called cast, we do not
create our own actions, Allah
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:15
			creates them, but we earn them by
intending them. Okay? And the
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:16
			intentions
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:22
			i may intend something yet Allah
doesn't create it. Right? How
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:27
			many? How many times you tried to
do something and didn't do it? So
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:34
			you intended it. Okay. But Allah
did not create it for you. So if
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37
			it was a good deed, you get the
good deed to get the reward of the
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:37
			good deed.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:42
			And if it was a bad did, you don't
get the reward or the punishment
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:46
			of the bad deed. So Allah says,
Lahoma cuz of it, what's so ever
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:49
			you intent, Allah give you a
portion of that reward. And then
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:52
			if you do do it, that's called
tofield that you and made a good
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:57
			intention. And Allah gave you what
you were looking for. Okay?
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			created it for you.
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:03
			So, and there are certain there
are things Allah commanded us to
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:08
			do. Right He created for us,
whether we like it or not, not
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:11
			commanded us who created it for
us, whether we like it or not,
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:14
			such as US existing in this
century.
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:20
			He didn't create create for us to
exist, before or after. So that's
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:23
			why I said we're in a sandbox
Allah creates for us parameters.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:27
			We are here obeying Allah or
disobeying him, I have the choice
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:34
			to obey or disobey. Okay? Here at
this moment at this location on
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36
			this planet, and let's say, your
location, I could change my
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:41
			location if I wanted, right? But
at this time, I can't change time.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:45
			I can't change this planet. Right
humanity is created on this
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:50
			planet, not on Neptune or Pluto,
or Mercury or Venus. So we have
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:54
			parameters. Allah created me as
this type of figure created us
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:58
			that figure that figure everyone's
created with their own figure.
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			Alright, no choice
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			Now you have choice in how you
handle we talked about the
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:06
			prophets I saw him yesterday,
tending to his body.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:12
			That's why you a little bit off
the subject, it is possible to
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:18
			demean or criticize appearances.
Right? And is not criticizing the
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:21
			creation of Allah. Because a
person may have a terrible
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:26
			appearance. That's not how Allah
didn't create you. All right, and
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:30
			disallow you to comb your hair,
for example, or trim your beard or
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:34
			trim your hair or iron your
clothes. Right, someone once said
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:38
			how terrible it is someone who was
overweight, as a Don't make fun of
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:40
			the creation of Allah and the
person responded, Allah didn't
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:46
			create you overweight, you ate,
and you didn't move, right. So
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:50
			there is within everything that
Allah created for us a little
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:55
			realm of control, or we shouldn't
we can say cusp, we can take
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:59
			action in that we can move in
that. Right so that's the basic
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:05
			understanding the parameters of
how we understand freewill and
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:12
			God's knowledge. Okay, what do we
know and if not bus and wave and
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:17
			cab the Great's companion who is
second most knowledgeable about
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:20
			the Quran after even our best is
obey bencab
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:25
			Kala kala Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam the Noble
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:28
			Messenger of Allah peace be upon
him said in nettle golem and Lydia
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:32
			Catella hula Cadila alayhi salam
to be IKEA Farah.
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:35
			The youth that
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:38
			got her killed,
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:44
			was made to be a KEF Allah created
him and stamped him as a KEF.
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:50
			Why is that? Because do not
imagine that this is why it's so
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:54
			important the 10 Z okay. The 10 Z
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:58
			of Allah from time
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:03
			Allah subhana, which Allah is not
in the time that we live in, in
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:05
			the sense of experiencing,
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:11
			past, present and future. We are
on a timeline because we are
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:15
			material things anything material
must exist in a timeline. And
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:19
			there is no timeline without
material things. Good time. The
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:25
			timeline is a sub is a function of
matter. Very simple thing. Time is
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:29
			a function of matter if there's no
matter there's no time. If as soon
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:30
			as there's matter, there's time.
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:36
			This is what the we call this
McKeen McKean, is you exist in
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:41
			time space. And Allah subhanaw
taala is the creator of that.
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:49
			Hence he is Munez transcendence,
from that transcend and beyond
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:53
			time. Therefore, when Allah to
Allah says a statement with a
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:56
			prophesy centum says a statement
like this, that Allah stamp that
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:00
			he's a Kaffir Okay, that is not a
poem that is not forcing him,
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:03
			because what Allah is deeming
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:09
			is not living today and tomorrow,
the way we are, all right, he is
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:11
			seeing the final results.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:17
			God is created with his knowledge
already the final result of your
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:22
			choices. So therefore, it is
accurate and not a contradictory
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:29
			to the, the freewill of a human
being. It is a contradiction if
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:32
			you misunderstand Allah and you
imagine that Allah is existing
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:32
			like us
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:38
			today, not knowing about tomorrow,
etcetera, etcetera. Okay. It's not
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:39
			a transcendent or Munez.
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:46
			transcendent, the Arabic of that
is Munez transcend it means beyond
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:48
			something, it does not apply to
him at all.
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:54
			As they said, Is God connected to
the universe or disconnected is
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:59
			near or far we say the question is
wrong. The question implies that
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:03
			he is material and somewhere
hovering around the universe. So
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:04
			he is Munez.
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:09
			Transcendent beyond this question,
transcendent it does not apply to
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:14
			him, because Allah is not composed
of matter. So 10 Z is trend is the
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:19
			concept of transcendence. And
Vanessa is the description of
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:20
			being transcendent.

Ashoka U and M Sade for murderous
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:11
			co Famille agile factor with Erica
V. Bethenny Omi. Let's go first to
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:15
			the section and read or reread
your V ever read it 50 times it,
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:20
			shouldn't we part of our pet path
in knowledge or philosophy is we
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:23
			never get bored. If you find
yourself getting bored of teaching
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:27
			something unboard yourself Quick,
take a breather from it. But then
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:32
			go back to it, shall we? The
concept of getting bored is the
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:37
			beginning of your failure. If you
allow getting bored to dictate
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:40
			your actions, be prepared for
failure. Okay.
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:46
			Let's go to the section on divine
on let's see if there's in this
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:52
			book on op ed, the section on
freewill, predestination and free
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:53
			will
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:59
			down to 68 a whole section
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:07
			268 as we do in this live stream
reread from the heritage of
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:12
			knowledge that these scholars have
cascaded down generation
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:17
			after generation and that's how
we're going to benefit by through
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:20
			knowledge. Okay, if Allah wills
good for people, he gives them
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:24
			education. So here's what we're
gonna say. Okay, so he says here
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:24
			reading from
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:30
			the introduction to Islamic
theology, Imam noted Dina sub
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:34
			Guney. I'd be dead if you also the
Dean translate by Frasca excellent
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:40
			job. Contrary to the sad scholars,
Muhammad Ali twaddle, our fellow
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:44
			Metro Ed state that it is not
conceivable that God exalted place
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:47
			on his servant a burden that that
can not be performed by them this
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:52
			is because burdening someone
incapable falls outside the scope
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:55
			of wisdom like burning a blind
person to see a paralyzed person
		
00:16:55 --> 00:17:00
			or or to to see or a paralyzed
person to walk. Thus, it would not
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:06
			be attributed to the all wise
because it would be foolishness to
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:11
			further elaborate to burden is to
require someone to do that which
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:15
			entails hardship as a test such
that he is rewarded for his
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:18
			performance and punished for its
non performance.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21
			This can be actualized only in
something conceivable, not
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:25
			something inconceivable. If it is
said the God the Exalted states,
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:31
			our Lord placed not upon us a
burden we cannot bear. Okay. So if
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:36
			an unbearable burden were not
possible, seeking refuge from it
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:42
			would not be valid, okay. So it's
possible for it to happen. And so
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:45
			when Allah states this idea, do
not burden us with something we
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:50
			cannot bear. Okay. And Allah
states he does not burden a soul
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:56
			with what it cannot bear. What
does this mean? This means Sharia
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:59
			obligations and prohibitions.
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:05
			obligate you to for example, not
eat and drink for two weeks you
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:10
			die. So the obligations but is it
fathomable that someone can be
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:12
			burdened with something that
cannot bear of course, houses
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:18
			anyone killed or dead or sick, you
can't bear the flu bug, you get
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:22
			sick, you can't bear a bullet to
your head you die right. So that
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:24
			is possible from people
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:28
			but it is not from Allah subhanho
wa Taala in other words through
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:31
			the Shetty, the city or the
religion does not teach us
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:34
			anything or does not come in to
something that we cannot do
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:43
			the first refuge the says your
likewise God said to the angels
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:47
			inform me of the names of these
despite his knowing Okay similarly
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:50
			is related to narration that God
the exalt said say says on the day
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:53
			of rising to those who used to
make pictures give life to what
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:55
			you created of course they can't
do it. The first verse deals with
		
00:18:55 --> 00:19:00
			seeking refuge from being given a
physical burden that is unbearable
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			not a moral one. Okay.
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:07
			For it is conceivable to make
someone carry a mountain or a wall
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:08
			he cannot here
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:14
			cannot bear such that he does.
Alright, in a break, fall break
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:18
			wall falling on a person he dies,
so he couldn't bear it. Okay,
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:23
			torture all the time. People are
tortured, right? People suffer far
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:26
			less than all these things. They
can't bear it, their brain fries.
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:30
			Literally their brains are fried
from the burden of life that they
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:35
			couldn't bear. Okay. And so you
have situations where you walk
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:39
			around and you see people they had
to drug themselves from the pain
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:43
			from the hardship and then their
body couldn't bear the drugs. So
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:48
			we literally have I'm not even
kidding you the zombie apocalypse.
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:52
			There is some truth to it. And it
comes to the in the form of
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:55
			drugged humans and there are
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:04
			Yeah, but But even worse, like the
zombies, there are
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:11
			places out in LA and California,
where there's tents of homeless
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:14
			people who just do drugs day in
and day out. If you ever go to one
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:19
			of these crack houses, you saw
there's zombies. They are so out
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:22
			of it. I don't even know how
they're walking and drinking and
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:26
			going to the bathroom or whatever.
Right? They are out when we used
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:29
			to feed the poor here. Every once
in awhile we'd see someone did not
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:32
			there. There is a person is not
there at all. You give them food.
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:36
			He is not there. It's drugs.
Right. And that's spreading.
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:39
			Yeah.
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:43
			And then
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:49
			like the other started like seeing
that. Yeah, so then they started
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:52
			like grabbing me and like
actually, like zombies. Yes. Yeah.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:55
			It's scary. It's freaky. And it's
out there in California spreading
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:58
			and an end. And if anything spread
in California, they usually end up
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:01
			spreading the rest of the world.
What just happened? Camera was
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:01
			showing off.
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:03
			We'll fix it.
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:12
			But you have a different
publication. Do you have the CPL?
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:16
			The PDF? Man, you hacked it to 69
How'd you hack that?
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:19
			I didn't have it.
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:29
			All right, if it is said, Did Alon
not place upon Abuja Hill and
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:33
			Pharaoh the responsibility of
believing while knowing all along
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:37
			that they would never believe is
it not impossible for something to
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:41
			exist if it contradicts what is
known to God the Exalted we
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:46
			respond. This question first
entails divergence from unanimous
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:49
			consensus as well as denial of a
statement of God the Exalted
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:52
			regarding the former the
community, the OMA has reached
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:56
			unanimous consensus that God never
actually places a burden on anyone
		
00:21:56 --> 00:22:01
			greater than his ability, no moral
obligation that is beyond his
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:05
			capacity. The difference of
opinion is only that is in its
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:09
			logical possibility. Regarding the
second God, the Exalted states,
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:13
			God does not burden any soul
except within its capacity. And
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:18
			the impossible is not within the
capacity of anyone. Okay? So his
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:22
			burden upon them to believe what's
possible for them,
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:29
			okay, yet knowing that they would
not do it, and is
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:34
			not forcing them to not do it, get
his knowledge that they will not
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:38
			do it. Keep in mind that statement
itself is false is knowledge that
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:42
			they will not do it. All the
creation, all the knowledge, you
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:45
			cannot speak about Allah regarding
past, present and future. So they
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:48
			have it's as if it already
happened. In the sight of Allah,
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:52
			it's all already happened. So he's
telling you the end of the book,
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:57
			right? But you, us humans have to
live page by page. Okay? So if
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:01
			Allah is telling you that, in the
last chapter of your life, you're
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:03
			going to do X, Y, and Z
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:08
			is irrelevant to you. You are
living on chapter five. I'm on
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:12
			decade number four, decade number
three, chapter three, chapter
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:13
			four, chapter five.
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:18
			Right? You're still the author of
your deeds, but for Allah subhanaw
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:22
			taala. It's as if it's all done.
Okay, so he's telling you what's
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:26
			in chapter 10, does not mean that
you're forced No one's forcing you
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:28
			to this is one of the most
important features here.
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:32
			Specifically guarding the
statement it is not impossible for
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:36
			something to exist if it
contradicts what is known to God
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:39
			we respond with the following
impossible is that which cannot be
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:42
			logically conceived, while
possible is that which can be
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:46
			logically conceived, the existence
of a non existence of something is
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:48
			considered alright, but there's
still not the answer that we're
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:51
			looking for, or the debate that
we're looking for. Okay.
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:02
			This is indicated by the fact that
we already already in agreement
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:06
			that both the existence and non
existence of the cosmos are
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:07
			logically possible.
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:12
			Okay. While in the knowledge of
Allah, it was certainly to come
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:16
			into existence, the reality of its
current existence does not render
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:21
			it logically necessary, since if
what God knew to exist were deemed
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:24
			necessary. And what he knew to not
exist were deemed impossible,
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:28
			there'll be no actualization of
that which could possibly exists
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:31
			Drake sort of complex if you're a
new reader, to this
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:37
			actualization to come into
existence. Moreover, Divine Will
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:40
			would then serve to distinguish
the necessary from the impossible,
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:44
			rather than specify one logical
possibility from another. This
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:48
			understanding is contrary to the
position of all the logicians and
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:51
			metaphysicians. Now if it is the
notion that it is possible for
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:54
			something to exist if it
contradicts what is known to God,
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:56
			I'm not going to read this. I'm
going to go to the next section.
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:59
			On the generality of things what
do you see this livestream is
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:00
			actually doing?
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:04
			New a great service. It's books,
it's more like like audio books,
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:09
			books on tape of various books in
Edison, okay, being read to you
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:12
			and even explained to you, and it
never keeps you bored. There's
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:14
			always a different book that we're
reading from. Okay. And this
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:18
			section is very important, from
Sudha to Robin that we give that
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:22
			we expand on this and learn from
it. The people of truth may God
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:25
			grant them victory state that
everything originated
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:31
			more death. Something created
something that came into
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:31
			existence.
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:38
			Whether substance or accident,
good or evil occurs by the decree
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:42
			and the will of Allah subhana wa
Tada, the more tessellate and the
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:46
			more Tesla which is a deviant
sect, state that things not
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:50
			pleasing to God are not willed by
him. Okay? They differed among
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:54
			themselves regarding permissible
things. We state that whatever God
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:59
			the Exalted nose will exist, he
wills for it to exist, regardless
		
00:25:59 --> 00:26:03
			of whether he commands it or not.
Well, Hanifa alluded to this when
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:07
			he asked one of the other
candidates did God the Exalted
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:12
			eternally know all the evil and
vile things that would exist or
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:16
			not? Okay, good question. This is
what people say to God, no, all
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:20
			these bad things would exist. The
person was forced to admit
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:26
			that God knew these things. He
then asked, Did God will to make
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:31
			manifest that which he knew, as he
knew it? Or did he will to make
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:35
			the manifest contrary to what he
knew, whereby his knowledge would
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:39
			be rendered ignorance, the person
then renounced his former position
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:43
			and repented to God for it. Okay,
so let me read you the second
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:49
			question. Okay. Okay. He asked one
of the cutlery, did God know all
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:53
			the evil and vile things in this
world are not? And he said, Yes,
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:59
			God knew them. He then asked Did
God will to make manifest that
		
00:26:59 --> 00:27:04
			which he knew, as he knew it, or
did he will to make the manifest
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:08
			contrary to what he knew, whereby
his knowledge would be rendered
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:13
			ignorance, okay, so he created
them as he knew them to be, which
		
00:27:13 --> 00:27:17
			is something that has already
emphasizes later with toa folk
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:18
			elements
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:25
			of early but tell me, God's
knowledge, God's speech, God's
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:27
			actions, they're all in accord.
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:31
			There is no diffusion between
them. All of his words are in
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:34
			accord to his knowledge, all of
his actions are in accord, to his
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:40
			knowledge. And the word for that
is more or less in accord. To his
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:42
			knowledge, there's no separation
in it.
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:47
			For that reason, one of our fellow
Matteucci, these stated Divine
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:48
			Will,
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:56
			corresponds to divine knowledge.
Raja tragedy Malelane. We just
		
00:27:56 --> 00:28:00
			said, his will, his actions, his
speech is in accord to his
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:03
			knowledge. The correct way of
stating it, however, is that the
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:09
			divine will corresponds good in a
court, I said in a court, he says
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:15
			corresponds to divine actions, and
Iraida tragedy malefic. Meaning
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:20
			whatever acts God the Exalted
undertakes, were indeed willed by
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:24
			him. For that reason to shape a
man or woman suited to the
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:28
			maturity stated that this issue
derives from the issue of the
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:33
			creation of human action. Once we
established that all human actions
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:37
			are created by God, it then flows
that there will by him, since if
		
00:28:37 --> 00:28:40
			he did not willed them, you will
be coerced into bringing them into
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:44
			existence, which is impossible.
Nothing is coercing the Creator.
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:50
			Okay. Allah says, and you do not
will, unless God wills
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:56
			and his statement had God willed,
they would not have ascribed
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:59
			partners Tim, and his statement
had your Lord wilt all the people
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:03
			on earth without exception would
have believed? Well not to shout
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:07
			when insha Allah the first one,
some verses, in fact explicitly
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:09
			affirmed that misguidance is also
wilt.
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:14
			he misguides whomever he wills,
and whomever he chooses to
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:18
			misguide, he makes his chest
narrow in English. Also, according
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:20
			to new orthodoxy, there's no
difference between choice and
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:24
			will. The proof of the soundness
of our position is that
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:27
			transmitted saying, that the
community received with acceptance
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:32
			go to the Cthulhu OMA to blockable
that which God chooses exists,
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:37
			good, sha Allah who can give me a
shot let me have
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:42
			you noticed that in ODOT, right to
negate the Morteza lights
		
00:29:43 --> 00:29:47
			that which Allah chooses exists
and what he does not choose, this
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:51
			cannot exist, for Allah does not
will or choose for something just
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:54
			that thing will never exist. The
position of our opponent
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:58
			contradicts the implication of the
statement since some of what God
		
00:29:58 --> 00:29:59
			chooses Okay,
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:05
			such as faith of all disbelievers
did not occur. And some some
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:08
			people say hold on a second did
not allow want
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:12
			everyone to believe he commanded
us all to believe, then but they
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:17
			didn't believe. So here they're
confusing his command with his
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:23
			will. Okay, he's gonna say that
soon. Okay, did not he command
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:27
			faith of all disbelievers, but it
did not occur. Hence their
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:31
			position, that Divine Will means
that he wants something or prefer
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:36
			something, thus differs from
choice where it is invalid by
		
00:30:36 --> 00:30:42
			consensus. So is Tesha his command
is different from his will. Right?
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:47
			He may command a thing, and he
doesn't will it, he commands a
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:49
			thing and wills it. He
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:51
			just
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:56
			does not command or disallows a
thing and wills it he disallows
		
00:30:56 --> 00:30:59
			anything and doesn't willing, and
the examples they give on it is
		
00:30:59 --> 00:31:02
			when he commands a thing, and he
wills it, the belief of the
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:06
			believer, he commands a thing, but
doesn't will it the disbelief of
		
00:31:06 --> 00:31:09
			the Catholic, you're commanded to
believe, but he does disbelieve,
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:13
			so on and so forth. You got two
options. So you have box A for he
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:17
			disallows a thing, but he creates
it, he wills, He disallows
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:21
			alcohol, but people get drunk all
the time. He disallows the thing
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:25
			any great and he creates it
doesn't create such as the co
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:30
			founder of the moment. Right? He
does not allow us to make over and
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:33
			he does not create it for us.
Okay, so it's like a box of four.
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:38
			If it is said, If God chose
disbelief for the disbeliever, he
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:41
			chose disbelief for the
disbeliever the person would not
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:44
			be able to do other than God's
will. That's the question we got
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:51
			to write. If Allah willed for a
person to be a Kaffir, then that
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:54
			person cannot possibly be a
believer. Right? Here's the
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:55
			beautiful thing of it.
		
00:31:57 --> 00:31:58
			You don't know God's will.
		
00:31:59 --> 00:32:03
			That's the thing. If a Catherine
says me, or that if God wills for
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:07
			you to be for me to be a careful,
how can I ever be a moment? We
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:11
			say, this is a moot point because
you don't know God's will. You
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:16
			don't know Allah's will. That's
the first thing. So secondly,
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:20
			they're trying to say I'm coerced
by God's choice by God's will.
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:25
			He should then either be excused
for his disbelief according to his
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:28
			own logic, which would nullify the
divine command,
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:32
			promise prohibition or threat, or
he should be punished for it,
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:36
			which would entail accountability
for what exceeds capacity because
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:39
			no one could go against God. So if
God wills from your calf bat calf,
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:42
			but I can't go against him. So why
am I being punished? That's the
		
00:32:42 --> 00:32:45
			logic of this argument. Okay, I
guarantee you he covers this here.
		
00:32:46 --> 00:32:53
			But I have Rohan Zedi. Because
this is a common question for
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:56
			thinking most of them I get your I
know, you want to read with us
		
00:32:56 --> 00:33:00
			after we finish this. Find it in
here. I guarantee you, he covers
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:03
			it in here. We respond. You know,
people want to know what we're
		
00:33:03 --> 00:33:06
			reading from. We're reading from
this. We're then going to read
		
00:33:06 --> 00:33:07
			from this. Okay.
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:12
			Let's see what he says here. We
response we were but your argument
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:16
			with the issue of knowledge in
that if God knows he will
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:20
			disbelieve is he then able to do
other than what God knows or not?
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:24
			Your response with regard to the
issue of knowledge is our response
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:28
			to the issue of will? Furthermore,
our position is that although God
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:32
			wills disbelief for him, what
God's God wills is that the person
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:37
			chooses disbelief of his own
volition.
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:43
			That's it. That's the answer. What
did God will God willed that you
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:44
			chose this?
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:50
			So God's will, is over our will,
will Master Sha one and sha Allah.
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:57
			So it's not as if God is willing
and unwilling. Right? And, or only
		
00:33:57 --> 00:34:01
			one of us is willing, sorry, God's
willing or unwilling? No, you are
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:04
			willing, and God's willing that
you're willing, okay?
		
00:34:05 --> 00:34:07
			Of your own volition and choice.
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:12
			God's will is that the person
chooses disbelief out of his own
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:18
			volition and choice while having
the ability to believe this is
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:23
			also what God knows of the purse.
Thus, the divine command
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:27
			prohibition, promise and threat is
valid. All that is valid.
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:32
			And that's the meaning of what
matters set when it lands Insha
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:36
			Allah, your will is also wilt,
you're never outside of the Divine
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:41
			Will. So if what is willed and
known is an act based on choice.
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:44
			How can the door be deemed
coerced?
		
00:34:46 --> 00:34:49
			In fact, God the Exalted
explicitly mentions the servants
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:54
			own volition in his statement, so
whoever wants let him believe
		
00:34:56 --> 00:35:00
			a man shall have a new admin for
for the man who
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:03
			I'm going to show a videographer.
Okay, so that's what is the Alice
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:07
			rock Alkaff for Misha video,
middle Misha Ophelia,
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:12
			water dinner, as well as the
statement do as you wish. Do as
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:15
			you wish, indeed, the servant
necessarily knows that of himself.
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:18
			There is no way for him to deny
it. That's where he goes to the
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:21
			practical aspect, you know that
you have the choice. You can't
		
00:35:21 --> 00:35:23
			deny that you have choices, and
that you take action.
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:29
			It's intuitive. Before you came
in, we said that one story, man
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:32
			questioned the same thing. So the
scholar picked up a rock and threw
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:33
			it out his head and made him
bleed.
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:38
			So he said, Look at the shaker, I
asked him a hard question. He
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:43
			abuses me. He said, Don't blame
me. It was willed. Right? I was
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:47
			willing to do it. And that was so
that was the answer. Right? So you
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:50
			clearly intuitively know that you
have choices.
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:53
			Yes.
		
00:35:57 --> 00:36:00
			Don't I think it's Is there
something left less than 30
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:06
			knowledge? Buddy fits me even?
Because the Rudy knowledge seems
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:10
			like there is still thought, like
two plus two. Like it's a
		
00:36:10 --> 00:36:13
			knowledge. This is like a buddy,
right? It's like something that
		
00:36:14 --> 00:36:17
			does not I guess you'd be the Rudy
but if there was anything less
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:18
			than the Rudy be the Rudy.
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:25
			This is Micah and by the way. Now
we'd have a mic for him. But
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:27
			that's okay. Just speak a little
bit like
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:31
			Yeah.
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:38
			Or like thirst? Like nobody here
yet? Yeah. So he's saying the Rudy
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:42
			and buddy here are the same. The
word buddy yet is things that does
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:46
			that just by existing, you know,
what's the case? Right? All right.
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:49
			Let's see if he has this
discussion in this book, and we'll
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:49
			read it a second time.
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:55
			There is no way for him to know
and God's Will of the servants
		
00:36:55 --> 00:36:58
			action is established by both
scripture and reason. So we can
		
00:36:58 --> 00:37:02
			not deny either of the two, you
see how beneficial this was? let's
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:04
			underline this sentence right
here.
		
00:37:05 --> 00:37:09
			God's will is that he choose
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:12
			disbelief from his own volition.
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:20
			Okay,
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:24
			and I believe that's probably the
end of this
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:30
			section. Now, there's one more
chapter one more question. He
		
00:37:30 --> 00:37:33
			says, if it is said, God, the
Exalted states and I have not
		
00:37:33 --> 00:37:39
			created Jinan mankind except so as
to worship me. He informs us that
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:41
			He created them for worship.
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:46
			How can he will their disbelief
and disobedience he likewise
		
00:37:46 --> 00:37:49
			states God wants ease for you, he
does not want difficulty and God
		
00:37:49 --> 00:37:53
			does not will oppression for His
servants and we respond as for the
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:56
			first verse, it cannot be applied
generally, since children and the
		
00:37:56 --> 00:38:00
			insane do not worship Him,
therefore it must be interpreted
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:04
			appropriately, it's its general
statement, but as a limited
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:07
			application, there are two
possible interpretations. One, it
		
00:38:07 --> 00:38:11
			could mean except so as to be
servants of mine, or it could mean
		
00:38:11 --> 00:38:17
			I have not created whomever among
jinn and mankind that God knows
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:21
			will worship him except so as to
worship me. Thus generality is not
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:26
			intended and God knows best as for
the second verse, God wants ease
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:28
			for you and not difficulty or
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:34
			God does not will oppression for
His servants. That's the second
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:36
			verse what he mentioned is
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:42
			God wants ease not difficulty is
what is meant in that is that
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:45
			specifically with respect to the
legislation of the law of the
		
00:38:45 --> 00:38:49
			Sharia, okay, he does not want
difficulty, but rather ease as for
		
00:38:49 --> 00:38:53
			the third verse, which is God does
not will oppression for His
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:58
			servants, okay. What is meant is
he does not will oppression for
		
00:38:58 --> 00:39:04
			His servants. That is, he does not
oppress them, but not that he does
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:08
			not will for some of them to
oppress each other. Okay.
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:14
			All right. This is indicated by
the fact that he does not state
		
00:39:14 --> 00:39:19
			oppression of servants, rather
oppression for servants. The
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:24
			preposition for here meaning
against as in his statement, and
		
00:39:24 --> 00:39:29
			if you do evil, then you do it for
yourselves. Okay, that it then you
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:30
			do it against yourselves.
		
00:39:31 --> 00:39:32
			Is that all clear?
		
00:39:36 --> 00:39:40
			Heavy stuff, but extremely useful,
like useful to an extreme.
		
00:39:44 --> 00:39:45
			So I think we got the answer to
that.
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:50
			And that is going to cover that up
because guarantee I'm like, 90%
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:53
			sure he must have covered this
subject.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:59
			In his while, looks that up
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:04
			Okay we will continue the Tafseer
of Alibaba we on this matter
		
00:40:09 --> 00:40:15
			he says here that Allah Tala has
assigned an angel to every womb.
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:23
			And that angel fashion fashions
and and writes down will the
		
00:40:23 --> 00:40:28
			decree that Allah has for this
creation? Well kala GEMA tune

			Mannella in Allah kala Kolkata
McAfee through manually and Allah

			to Allah the Quran Alka firma was
a phone be fairly him, okay is
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:45
			that Allah is in this describing
their own actions not enforcing
		
00:40:45 --> 00:40:46
			something upon them
		
00:40:48 --> 00:40:52
			as Allah says from income capital

00:40:52 --> 00:40:57
			Calaca colada but map for men who

00:40:57 --> 00:41:01
			says Allah created every animal

00:41:01 --> 00:41:04
			their stomach, some of them walk
on four, four legs, etc.
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:10
			Okay, that is their description.
He's just describing them, not
		
00:41:10 --> 00:41:13
			forcing them. He's describing
their own choice
		
00:41:14 --> 00:41:17

			in this life. But when you go into
the next life, you're going to be
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:34
			a believer. And some people could
respond to that by saying that
		
00:41:34 --> 00:41:38
			there's no belief in the
afterlife, because belief requires
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:43
			accepting the transmission of what
you don't see. Right? But on the
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:47
			day of judgment, you see it all.
So there will be no believers on
		
00:41:47 --> 00:41:49
			the day of judgment and Allah
knows best
		
00:41:50 --> 00:41:54

			Creative income careful to be an

00:42:28 --> 00:42:29
			there are people who are Cafe

			cafe in regard to Allah creating
them. And that's a group called
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:38
			the dedhia. In the past there was
a people called we've said we've
		
00:42:38 --> 00:42:41
			been around here forever and
nothing will destroy us except
		
00:42:41 --> 00:42:43

00:43:04 --> 00:43:07
			okay, no mention of the freewill
debate here
		
00:43:12 --> 00:43:13
			Yeah,
		
00:43:14 --> 00:43:19
			okay. All my best, he says, Isn't
believe doesn't belief also apply
		
00:43:19 --> 00:43:21
			to the observed ie the Quran is
rejecting the Prophet size and
		
00:43:21 --> 00:43:25
			Salallahu Salam even after seeing
his miracles? Well, I think what
		
00:43:25 --> 00:43:28
			they are rejecting they see the
prophets of Allah when he said
		
00:43:28 --> 00:43:32
			them, they see His miracles,
they're rejecting that it's from
		
00:43:32 --> 00:43:36
			Allah. They still don't see Allah
right. So that's what the
		
00:43:36 --> 00:43:38
			rejecting a lot is best.
		
00:43:40 --> 00:43:48
			But the we also are told that the
kaffir if he was to see the truth
		
00:43:48 --> 00:43:50
			itself, he would reject it.
		
00:43:51 --> 00:43:55
			Right. Let me take a peek at this
here says model is
		
00:43:57 --> 00:43:58
			coherence.
		
00:43:59 --> 00:44:02
			Christians and Jews anticipate

00:45:09 --> 00:45:12
			route now where the Democrats
think that they're trying to
		
00:45:12 --> 00:45:16
			undermine parental like the new
progressives and they're trying to
		
00:45:16 --> 00:45:19
			undermine parental authority Be

00:46:37 --> 00:46:37
			Amen.
		
00:46:40 --> 00:46:44
			The exact same thing that is said
here, exact same thing, like
		
00:46:44 --> 00:46:49
			almost word, not word for word,
but the same concept. And he's an
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:52
			SRE back always, and actually
Shafi and he's a maturity, I
		
00:46:52 --> 00:46:54
			believe Hanafi, right? Yeah.
		
00:46:55 --> 00:47:00
			Is there a non Hanafi maturity
zero, that just happened to be
		
00:47:00 --> 00:47:00
			that they're all
		
00:47:01 --> 00:47:05
			and there's no shut? There's no
reason a chef a cannot become a
		
00:47:05 --> 00:47:07
			maturity, except that all of a
sudden, you mess up your teachers,
		
00:47:08 --> 00:47:09
			right? Because
		
00:47:10 --> 00:47:13
			part of this thing is the unicity
of your teachers, right? So you
		
00:47:13 --> 00:47:16
			have a gym out in Morocco, and you
want to be oh my god, do you want
		
00:47:16 --> 00:47:20
			to find one? Right? Especially in
the old days, Modern Times
		
00:47:20 --> 00:47:25
			everything's off because teachers
are everywhere, right? But in the
		
00:47:25 --> 00:47:29
			old days, so you don't generally
tend to find these
		
00:47:30 --> 00:47:33
			these things and it's probably not
good, I don't think
		
00:47:37 --> 00:47:42
			I think it's by the intent. A
person should not intend to cook
		
00:47:42 --> 00:47:43
			up for himself.
		
00:47:44 --> 00:47:48
			Some kind of identity in these
things that never existed had no
		
00:47:48 --> 00:47:52
			reason to exist. Like, um, this
when it comes to this subject on
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:54
			this when it comes to that
subject. It's like
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:59
			yeah, on this subject on this, it
just seems to be like you're
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:02
			trying to get attention. That's
what it seems to me and a lot a
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:05
			lot as best but it seems to me
that you're just you're going that
		
00:48:05 --> 00:48:05
			route of attention.
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:11
			Like they not not like to say
like, oh, like every single like
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:14
			every other issue. They're like
Matthew ashabi mentally Dasha and
		
00:48:14 --> 00:48:17
			like they said something the
majority of one of the school
		
00:48:17 --> 00:48:19
			Yeah, but like they'll say like,
		
00:48:20 --> 00:48:23
			they'll say about like one masala,
like I inclined towards the more
		
00:48:23 --> 00:48:25
			the majority. Yeah, I don't think
I don't think there's a problem
		
00:48:25 --> 00:48:29
			with that. Yeah, but it's one like
when it comes to my certain food
		
00:48:29 --> 00:48:33
			on this, when it comes to also on
that when it comes to update on
		
00:48:33 --> 00:48:36
			this. And it's like, it seems like
your intention. What's your
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:38
			intention? It's not like a
Frankenstein Have you tried to
		
00:48:38 --> 00:48:44
			cook up a new identity here or get
attention? But then now the show
		
00:48:45 --> 00:48:46
			exists in all formatives.
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:52
			American chef it goes without say
there are humbly studies or who
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:54
			lean towards that such as Evelyn
Josie.
		
00:48:56 --> 00:48:57
			And there are
		
00:48:59 --> 00:49:03
			four Saudis in Shem. All over
Syria. They have that Neff for our
		
00:49:03 --> 00:49:03
			shows.
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:13
			But the maturities I believe are
solely historically speaking not
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:16
			today. Historically speaking
within the Hanafi circles.
		
00:49:19 --> 00:49:23
			He then says had that thought
equally sooner. Well Jimmy, I
		
00:49:23 --> 00:49:29

			I know Canada team Russell humble

			small agency la Wahidullah, whom

			is one legions is the name of a
whole genus and there is no single
		
00:51:40 --> 00:51:45
			of Bashar. So an A Bashar will not
know Bashar I am a budget we are
		
00:51:45 --> 00:51:50
			all Bashar right there is no

00:51:50 --> 00:51:55

			and Mithila Nya and Dena will a

00:52:04 --> 00:52:08
			being like us can can guide us how
can one single human guide us? Or
		
00:52:08 --> 00:52:11
			how can a human like us guide us
fucka forward to Allah Subhan
		
00:52:11 --> 00:52:16
			Allah and Iman him for comfort,
whatever they rejected, they
		
00:52:16 --> 00:52:19
			turned back with Stephen Allah,
Allah does not need them in the
		
00:52:19 --> 00:52:20
			advancement of his will.
		
00:52:21 --> 00:52:27
			Okay, well, Logan Yun Hamid and
healthy fit from Kabara and
		
00:52:27 --> 00:52:31
			include him in Bath. Let's stop
here. Actually, you know what?
		
00:52:33 --> 00:52:37
			I feel that if we stop here, I
won't know where we left off. But
		
00:52:37 --> 00:52:39
			let's stop here and read from
		
00:52:41 --> 00:52:42
			from JDS book.
		
00:52:47 --> 00:52:47
			So
		
00:52:50 --> 00:52:54
			how can a human being guide if it
is said that only Allah guides?
		
00:52:57 --> 00:53:02
			How can it be said that? How can
it be said that a human being
		
00:53:02 --> 00:53:03
			guides
		
00:53:04 --> 00:53:06
			if we know that only Allah guides?
		
00:53:17 --> 00:53:19
			Like, ultimately we all know,
ultimately.
		
00:53:21 --> 00:53:27
			Okay, so it is the description
that the speech about the sub, in
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:28
			the same way that we speak about
them with sub.
		
00:53:30 --> 00:53:32
			That's possible. Firstly, for
those who don't know, what is the
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:37
			sub Anamosa bib, the Musa bib, the
creator of all causes is Allah
		
00:53:37 --> 00:53:41
			subhanho wa taala. He's not a
cause he's a creator of the
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:47
			causes, and then the cause. And it
is permissible in speech to refer
		
00:53:47 --> 00:53:48
			to the cause.
		
00:53:50 --> 00:53:55
			And the creator with the same
language, right? So I could say,
		
00:53:55 --> 00:53:59
			if you saved me from a river, I
could say you saved me. Right?
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:03
			While believing in my heart that
you are the cause, not the creator
		
00:54:03 --> 00:54:06
			of the saving. That ultimately
Allah saved me. Okay?
		
00:54:08 --> 00:54:12
			That's correct on one facet,
that's one answer that works.
		
00:54:12 --> 00:54:17
			Another answer that works is that
the guidance of the human is to
		
00:54:17 --> 00:54:18
			point people
		
00:54:19 --> 00:54:25
			to the actions through which Allah
guides you. Right? So a human
		
00:54:25 --> 00:54:30
			guide would be the one who takes
you to the wealth, but he can't
		
00:54:30 --> 00:54:30
			make you drink.
		
00:54:31 --> 00:54:35
			Or we can say the human guide is
the one who teaches you how to
		
00:54:35 --> 00:54:36
			pray.
		
00:54:37 --> 00:54:40
			Right then when you do pray that
Allah guides you.
		
00:54:41 --> 00:54:45
			So Allah is the guide of your
heart, but who guided your body to
		
00:54:45 --> 00:54:49
			prayer, the human guide, and
that's how we can call humans
		
00:54:49 --> 00:54:52
			guides. There's nothing wrong to
say that the human is a guide.
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:20
			My love story with God begins in
my teens though I didn't know it
		
00:55:20 --> 00:55:24
			at the time. Since my high school
in Canada, where I was born and
		
00:55:24 --> 00:55:27
			raised was a huge multicultural
salad.
		
00:55:28 --> 00:55:33
			The spectrum of beliefs prodded me
subconsciously. I found myself
		
00:55:33 --> 00:55:38
			hanging out with Sikhs and Hindus
at lunch. And high fiving
		
00:55:38 --> 00:55:42
			Catholics and Protestants and
Orthodox Christians at basketball
		
00:55:42 --> 00:55:46
			practice and discussing Buddhism
and Sufism and every other ism
		
00:55:46 --> 00:55:49
			overdose at coffee shops. They
were eye opening experiences, but
		
00:55:49 --> 00:55:53
			naturally these interactions made
me wonder where I stood.
		
00:55:54 --> 00:55:58
			I figured I should learn something
about my religion, the religion of
		
00:55:58 --> 00:56:01
			my ancestors, Islam, having been
viciously bullied when I was
		
00:56:01 --> 00:56:04
			younger. I was inspired by the
religions proclaimed Prophet
		
00:56:04 --> 00:56:07
			Muhammad salallahu Salam, an
underprivileged orphan who
		
00:56:07 --> 00:56:10
			remained at the servants of the
week despite triumphing over
		
00:56:10 --> 00:56:13
			powerful oppressors. I remember
staying up full night's engulfed
		
00:56:13 --> 00:56:17
			in his biography. Though I was
drawn to Islam due to its
		
00:56:17 --> 00:56:20
			Messenger, and its lofty principle
had not explored its theology
		
00:56:20 --> 00:56:23
			deeply. Belief to me was something
relative, like tastes and
		
00:56:23 --> 00:56:28
			clothing. However, I did not think
God was a matter of fact, a belief
		
00:56:28 --> 00:56:32
			everyone shared. I did think
sorry, I did think God would just
		
00:56:32 --> 00:56:35
			make tech for you to the guy. I
didn't think we could remember
		
00:56:35 --> 00:56:40
			made the the poor guy calf. I did
think God was a matter of fact, I
		
00:56:40 --> 00:56:45
			believe everyone shared. He just
assumed that. That's everyone
		
00:56:45 --> 00:56:49
			believes. Then I met atheists.
These people asked me why I
		
00:56:49 --> 00:56:52
			believed what I did. And I
appreciated them for It compelled
		
00:56:52 --> 00:56:54
			me to question all my beliefs and
how rational they were. I checked
		
00:56:54 --> 00:56:58
			them a pistol melodically
assessing how we can be certain of
		
00:56:58 --> 00:57:02
			what we think we know about God's
messengers, holy scriptures, and
		
00:57:02 --> 00:57:05
			other ancillary subjects to the
biggest question, however, was
		
00:57:05 --> 00:57:09
			whether God even existed all this
to me was in the spirit of
		
00:57:09 --> 00:57:13
			inquiry. I figured that pushing
all my beliefs through a
		
00:57:13 --> 00:57:17
			scientific method, which I hold
high would certainly reveal
		
00:57:17 --> 00:57:20
			whatever truth there was, and I
was prepared to let the chips fall
		
00:57:20 --> 00:57:24
			where they may. Oddly, it led me
to a profound respect for theism.
		
00:57:24 --> 00:57:27
			I say oddly, because many of the
atheists I had known over the
		
00:57:27 --> 00:57:32
			years, were now a hint more
condescending, and I was actually
		
00:57:32 --> 00:57:36
			expecting that I would adopt their
view. But you by University
		
00:57:37 --> 00:57:41
			College, most people I met thought
that the rational support the
		
00:57:41 --> 00:57:43
			rationale supporting atheism,
		
00:57:44 --> 00:57:49
			on touchably outstripped the one
supporting the divine being. They
		
00:57:49 --> 00:57:53
			went so far as to say that theists
were enemies of reason and
		
00:57:53 --> 00:57:57
			science, following a weak and
dated belief. Today, this view of
		
00:57:57 --> 00:58:03
			God seems to be widely accepted,
even theists have couched it's as
		
00:58:03 --> 00:58:08
			if they to think that all God has
going for him is faith. Given my
		
00:58:08 --> 00:58:10
			own explorative journey,
		
00:58:11 --> 00:58:15
			though, I find this position
grossly ignorant. I think it is,
		
00:58:15 --> 00:58:19
			is us rolling our eyes that
philosophy, theology and logic
		
00:58:19 --> 00:58:22
			that has led to this warped
outlook, this is summary of the
		
00:58:22 --> 00:58:26
			book, right? The western mind, all
they look at is the visible data,
		
00:58:27 --> 00:58:30
			ultimate Tgb. By limiting
themselves to only what is
		
00:58:30 --> 00:58:35
			demonstrable, and rolling your
eyes at transmitted knowledge and
		
00:58:35 --> 00:58:40
			rational knowledge, you will end
up with very little certainty
		
00:58:41 --> 00:58:43
			about these big matters. So he's
saying you're that's the real
		
00:58:43 --> 00:58:46
			problem in the western
civilization is that they have
		
00:58:46 --> 00:58:52
			pretty much dismissed, okay,
rational knowledge and transmitted
		
00:58:52 --> 00:58:55
			knowledge. All right, I think it
is us rolling our eyes that
		
00:58:55 --> 00:58:58
			philosophy, theology and logic
that has led to this warped
		
00:58:58 --> 00:59:03
			outlook, no less to blame is our
aggrandizing if not leaping up
		
00:59:03 --> 00:59:08
			aboard the apparent ironclad
bandwagon of scientism, scientism
		
00:59:08 --> 00:59:13
			is the belief that truth is
restricted to that which can be
		
00:59:13 --> 00:59:14
			demonstrated,
		
00:59:16 --> 00:59:19
			which we say no truth can be
demonstrated, it can be reasoned,
		
00:59:20 --> 00:59:21
			and it can be transmitted.
		
00:59:22 --> 00:59:26
			Okay, from the past, scientists
and whose stars we have not given
		
00:59:26 --> 00:59:31
			a solid kick. But it is not all
our fault. God has the best case
		
00:59:31 --> 00:59:34
			with the worst lawyers. That's
totally true, where the
		
00:59:34 --> 00:59:38
			theologians theists fail to
deliver. That is why it is my hope
		
00:59:38 --> 00:59:42
			that this book will convey the
strength of the platform on which
		
00:59:42 --> 00:59:46
			the concept of God rests. Note
that I am not arguing for what is
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:49
			true. That is another
investigation. I would rather
		
00:59:49 --> 00:59:52
			consider it a success if my work
merely challenges readers to
		
00:59:52 --> 00:59:56
			evaluate whether their position is
as reasonable as pointing it in
		
00:59:56 --> 00:59:59
			the omnipresent and creating,
creating deity
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:04
			Whether their position is as
reasonable as positive, and
		
01:00:04 --> 01:00:05
			omnipresent,
		
01:00:06 --> 01:00:10
			and creating deity, we need to
pass this milestone if we wish to
		
01:00:10 --> 01:00:13
			embark on what is, in my opinion,
the far more beautiful journey,
		
01:00:13 --> 01:00:19
			the journey unto the divine. This
is a modern Qlm work. Put in a
		
01:00:19 --> 01:00:21
			language we could all read and
understand.
		
01:00:22 --> 01:00:26
			And that's why I was like this.
It's almost like, this is a book
		
01:00:26 --> 01:00:27
			I'm reading from everybody.
		
01:00:28 --> 01:00:34
			It's as if this book, it has the
same principles as a Sufi insidey
		
01:00:34 --> 01:00:38
			podcast and not them Ephesus
livestream. That was the whole
		
01:00:38 --> 01:00:43
			presentation of this phenotype,
the philosophy of the Simian side,
		
01:00:43 --> 01:00:48
			the podcast was it was a Kalam
podcast, more so than FIP. Or to
		
01:00:48 --> 01:00:54
			solve it was about Eman and
reason, belief and reason. Okay,
		
01:00:54 --> 01:00:59
			there's like, we were reading the
betta to Minnesota. From with
		
01:00:59 --> 01:01:01
			Sharon yesterday, and then we were
like reading from the translation.
		
01:01:02 --> 01:01:05
			And like, there's all these big
words like ontological and like,
		
01:01:05 --> 01:01:08
			like and like we were just like,
like, are they just putting
		
01:01:08 --> 01:01:11
			ontological on like, like
sprinkling in like book like,
		
01:01:11 --> 01:01:15
			scholarly vocab, or like, academic
vocab? Like, we were just like,
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:17
			all trying to like figure out what
he was trying to say. Yeah, but
		
01:01:17 --> 01:01:21
			mashallah, like, this is easier.
Yeah. So when you're a specialist
		
01:01:21 --> 01:01:24
			in a field, you take the lingo,
the technical terminology of that
		
01:01:24 --> 01:01:30
			field for granted. And some people
become, they're limited, actually,
		
01:01:30 --> 01:01:34
			I think they're limited, that they
may stay in a field for so long.
		
01:01:35 --> 01:01:39
			Right? And be surrounded by the
people of those that fields that
		
01:01:39 --> 01:01:44
			they no longer remember what it's
like to be ignorant of that field.
		
01:01:44 --> 01:01:49
			So I think that's a limit. Because
even I think it was Einstein who
		
01:01:49 --> 01:01:53
			made that statement, he said that
you truly have knowledge. If you
		
01:01:53 --> 01:01:57
			can go through an entire
discipline become an expert, yet
		
01:01:57 --> 01:02:00
			explain it to the ignorant. Right,
that's where you like you, you
		
01:02:00 --> 01:02:03
			want the journey, but you haven't
forgotten what it's like. And
		
01:02:03 --> 01:02:05
			that's why for example,
		
01:02:07 --> 01:02:11
			in, in politics, how is it that
		
01:02:12 --> 01:02:17
			tyrants are kings collapse? Why
would they collapse? How do they
		
01:02:17 --> 01:02:23
			collapse is because they've been
kings for so long, right?
		
01:02:24 --> 01:02:25
			That they don't
		
01:02:26 --> 01:02:29
			even have any knowledge or
recognition of the life of the
		
01:02:29 --> 01:02:32
			common man. Hence, they make
decision after the decision that
		
01:02:32 --> 01:02:35
			hurts the common man, there's they
have no access to the common man
		
01:02:35 --> 01:02:40
			anymore. They make such blunder as
decisions, because they don't even
		
01:02:40 --> 01:02:46
			have a clue how the common man
lives, feels or thinks. And then
		
01:02:46 --> 01:02:52
			they go within, they make these
clear blunders that get them
		
01:02:52 --> 01:02:55
			kicked out. So that's the concept
again, people ask them what book
		
01:02:55 --> 01:02:58
			we're reading from. We'll be
reading from this. Okay.
		
01:02:59 --> 01:02:59
			Let's
		
01:03:02 --> 01:03:05
			just read another section here
because
		
01:03:06 --> 01:03:11
			oh, look, look, I'm telling you as
much as don't think, right. Look
		
01:03:11 --> 01:03:15
			at look at the chapter. Look at
what the chapter is called. A
		
01:03:15 --> 01:03:18
			specialist don't think right?
Unreal.
		
01:03:20 --> 01:03:24
			It's uncanny. Right? must agree on
a lot of them.
		
01:03:26 --> 01:03:29
			Let's skip this section and go
reach to that section right away
		
01:03:29 --> 01:03:32
			because I'm really curious what he
said. Many people I meet have
		
01:03:32 --> 01:03:35
			wondered why I believe in God,
some people ask, but most people
		
01:03:35 --> 01:03:40
			don't get it. Some people ask
semicolon, but most people don't.
		
01:03:40 --> 01:03:43
			Their curiosity, I imagine is the
same. How can anybody be so sure
		
01:03:43 --> 01:03:47
			God exists? Has this guy just been
indoctrinated? Or maybe it works
		
01:03:47 --> 01:03:51
			for him? But there's no real way
to know is there? I don't usually
		
01:03:51 --> 01:03:54
			get a chance to answer these
questions. The existential
		
01:03:54 --> 01:03:59
			questions are not automatic turn
off, or are an automatic turn off
		
01:03:59 --> 01:04:02
			nowadays, even though everybody
longs for answers.
		
01:04:03 --> 01:04:07
			Get why we exist and all that
stuff. It's not fashionable to ask
		
01:04:07 --> 01:04:09
			these questions these days, but
everyone truly wants to know.
		
01:04:10 --> 01:04:15
			As for those with whom I have had
enough time to kick back and just
		
01:04:15 --> 01:04:18
			speak openly, usually friends who
are not afraid to be critical of
		
01:04:18 --> 01:04:22
			themselves or me. They most
always, almost always end up
		
01:04:22 --> 01:04:25
			remarking something to the effect
of if it's so rational, why
		
01:04:25 --> 01:04:30
			doesn't everyone believe in God?
Okay, there Hey, could you put the
		
01:04:30 --> 01:04:34
			you're putting the link right
heavy? Good. Thank you. And for
		
01:04:34 --> 01:04:37
			the youtubers that link to
purchase it. There are a number of
		
01:04:37 --> 01:04:40
			reasons why people do not accept
the concept of a divine being
		
01:04:40 --> 01:04:43
			there are those who carry baggage
from certain past experiences.
		
01:04:43 --> 01:04:47
			Others are allergic to religion
being able to do little these two
		
01:04:47 --> 01:04:50
			fronts this book is not for them.
Okay, if you have any emotional if
		
01:04:50 --> 01:04:54
			your emotional, you got some
emotional issues. No offense, but
		
01:04:54 --> 01:04:58
			you can't talk to you. Your bias
what we call not his bias
		
01:04:58 --> 01:04:59
			hysterical Oh sir.
		
01:05:00 --> 01:05:04
			Yeah, people whose emotional gets
dark, we can't deal with them. But
		
01:05:04 --> 01:05:09
			most people have other reasons.
And to whom this book may appeal.
		
01:05:10 --> 01:05:13
			Hey, those who deemed sense
experience the only reliable
		
01:05:13 --> 01:05:18
			source of knowledge that scientism
science, demonstrable sensory
		
01:05:18 --> 01:05:21
			experiences the only source of
knowledge. In other words, those
		
01:05:21 --> 01:05:23
			who say if God exists, why can't
he be more obvious? Why can't I
		
01:05:23 --> 01:05:28
			see him directly? Okay? Those who
do not see God as a necessary
		
01:05:28 --> 01:05:31
			explanation, those who have not
challenged their own framework
		
01:05:31 --> 01:05:35
			strongly. Which is true of any of
us who follow a belief system, not
		
01:05:35 --> 01:05:38
			just atheism, so like a Christian
person who is Christian, but if
		
01:05:38 --> 01:05:41
			you ask them, Hey, you're so into
this, but did you ever study
		
01:05:41 --> 01:05:42
			anything else? No.
		
01:05:43 --> 01:05:45
			And there are a lot of that in the
Protestant camp.
		
01:05:46 --> 01:05:50
			Those who have accepted the views
of people believe to be smarter
		
01:05:50 --> 01:05:57
			than themselves. Right people who
are who watch Neil deGrasse Tyson
		
01:05:57 --> 01:06:00
			think he's so smart, right? You
can't be wrong or what's the other
		
01:06:00 --> 01:06:02
			guy's name Jordan Peterson now?
		
01:06:04 --> 01:06:08
			Oh, musical that atheist from
England. Oh, Richard Dawkins,
		
01:06:08 --> 01:06:12
			Richard Dawkins. Those who have
accepted the view of people, they
		
01:06:12 --> 01:06:15
			believe smarter. This point is
particular to atheists in our
		
01:06:15 --> 01:06:19
			current scientific Millia. Right.
You ask everyone okay, well,
		
01:06:19 --> 01:06:23
			evolution, never seen it. Oh, no.
But scientists saw it where
		
01:06:23 --> 01:06:27
			they're going to tell me what's up
the fast finches. The birds,
		
01:06:27 --> 01:06:30
			right, those birds? What are those
birds called in the Galapagos
		
01:06:30 --> 01:06:33
			Islands? Really? you're
transmitting that everyone says
		
01:06:33 --> 01:06:37
			that same example the finches on
the Galapagos Islands. Okay.
		
01:06:39 --> 01:06:43
			Okay, the first group who say God
does not exist, because they have
		
01:06:43 --> 01:06:48
			not seen him suffer the same as
anybody who claims that they do
		
01:06:48 --> 01:06:52
			not see that what they do not see
does not exist, it is the weakest
		
01:06:52 --> 01:06:53
			form of reasoning.
		
01:06:55 --> 01:06:58
			But the last category, those who
follow what they perceive our
		
01:06:58 --> 01:07:02
			beliefs of smarter people are the
ones I have the greatest objection
		
01:07:02 --> 01:07:07
			with today. That often ends up
meaning intellectuals in popular
		
01:07:07 --> 01:07:11
			hard sciences such as STEM
science, technology, engineering,
		
01:07:11 --> 01:07:14
			math education, there are a number
of reasons why following their
		
01:07:14 --> 01:07:18
			belief is dangerous academic
achievement is not inherently
		
01:07:18 --> 01:07:22
			joined at the hip with atheism.
But actually it does not matter.
		
01:07:22 --> 01:07:26
			Even if it were an idea being
Vogue within the scientific
		
01:07:26 --> 01:07:30
			community does not make it true.
Otherwise, that would have been a
		
01:07:30 --> 01:07:33
			valid reason for believing that
Jesus was God. 100 years ago, when
		
01:07:33 --> 01:07:36
			most scientists were Christians,
scientists, we find are no
		
01:07:36 --> 01:07:40
			different than any of us whose
conclusions are deeply influenced
		
01:07:40 --> 01:07:44
			by personal interests, beliefs,
and wishes. See, for example, in
		
01:07:44 --> 01:07:49
			samples book, Nobel winners,
declare Nobel Winner declares
		
01:07:49 --> 01:07:51
			boycott of top scientific
journals.
		
01:07:52 --> 01:07:57
			Okay, even the peer reviewing
process does not escape these
		
01:07:57 --> 01:07:58
			biases.
		
01:08:00 --> 01:08:04
			But since 93% of leading
scientists have been rejecting any
		
01:08:04 --> 01:08:07
			form of religion or soup, or
spirituality, their influence on
		
01:08:07 --> 01:08:11
			what scientific journals publish,
and what information the public
		
01:08:11 --> 01:08:15
			receives is very real. God within
the academic milieu of atheism,
		
01:08:15 --> 01:08:20
			for example, were published the
findings of Mark Hauser, former
		
01:08:20 --> 01:08:24
			Harvard professor, his research
demonstrated the moral superiority
		
01:08:24 --> 01:08:28
			of atheists moral. In a twist of
irony, Hauser became the
		
01:08:28 --> 01:08:31
			embodiment of his own premises
defeat, he was notoriously caught
		
01:08:31 --> 01:08:34
			for fraudulent research Suhana
believable.
		
01:08:35 --> 01:08:41
			But it was not that an atheist had
been manipulating the truth which
		
01:08:41 --> 01:08:46
			was alarming, but rather how
errors readily pass academic
		
01:08:46 --> 01:08:50
			checkpoints as long as they
conform to the scientific
		
01:08:50 --> 01:08:52
			community's desired conclusions.
		
01:08:54 --> 01:08:57
			And he gives examples he it's all
footnoted, there's footnotes
		
01:08:57 --> 01:08:58
			everywhere in the book.
		
01:09:00 --> 01:09:02
			He's basically done something that
I would not have had the subs to
		
01:09:02 --> 01:09:08
			do to go get footnotes and, you
know, it is those views that crowd
		
01:09:08 --> 01:09:12
			out the others. According to the
philosopher of science Ilja,
		
01:09:12 --> 01:09:17
			Massimo, most scientists employ
the scientific method based on
		
01:09:17 --> 01:09:22
			materialistic mechanistic and
reductionist assumptions. So much
		
01:09:22 --> 01:09:26
			so that research find fundings are
affected. The more a vision
		
01:09:26 --> 01:09:30
			deviates from the materialistic
paradigm, the lower its status,
		
01:09:30 --> 01:09:34
			and the less money it receives. It
is due to these leanings says top
		
01:09:34 --> 01:09:37
			ranking biologist Rupert
Sheldrake, whose many well
		
01:09:37 --> 01:09:40
			documented peer reviewed research
papers run counter to the ideology
		
01:09:40 --> 01:09:43
			of the community to which he
belongs that a belief in
		
01:09:43 --> 01:09:47
			materialism has indeed been
propagated with remarkable
		
01:09:47 --> 01:09:51
			success. Millions of people have
been converted to the scientific
		
01:09:51 --> 01:09:55
			view. They are, as it were
devotees of the Church of science
		
01:09:55 --> 01:09:59
			or of scientism of which
scientists are the priestess. I
		
01:09:59 --> 01:10:00
			believe we
		
01:10:00 --> 01:10:03
			We must be aware of the biases of
scientists whom we put on
		
01:10:03 --> 01:10:07
			pedestals before we adopt their
beliefs. They're human beings.
		
01:10:07 --> 01:10:10
			They have biases, they have a
philosophy. They have a desired
		
01:10:10 --> 01:10:13
			conclusion, like all this stuff
with Neanderthal man and all these
		
01:10:13 --> 01:10:19
			things. I always say, guys, these
guys have a conclusion in mind,
		
01:10:19 --> 01:10:21
			then they saw the evidence
together, right?
		
01:10:23 --> 01:10:26
			Okay, I believe we must be aware
of these biases of scientists whom
		
01:10:26 --> 01:10:30
			we put on a pedestal before we
adopt their beliefs. Sociology of
		
01:10:30 --> 01:10:35
			science confirms that uncritically
adopting anyone's view within
		
01:10:35 --> 01:10:38
			their field of authority, let
alone outside their field of
		
01:10:38 --> 01:10:42
			authority is risky. It subjects us
to incorrect conclusions. So do
		
01:10:42 --> 01:10:45
			not be surprised if throughout
your reading, you catch yourself
		
01:10:45 --> 01:10:50
			wondering how that which is making
sense to you is at odds with what
		
01:10:50 --> 01:10:55
			smart people may have concluded.
Thinking for ourselves is a good
		
01:10:55 --> 01:10:58
			thing. Actually, it is more
intellectually rigorous to
		
01:10:58 --> 01:11:02
			formulate an opinion based on
information than to follow an
		
01:11:02 --> 01:11:09
			authority. Okay. Specialists don't
think right, he says, Okay. Apart
		
01:11:09 --> 01:11:13
			from their mortifying bias. I just
read the wrong chapter, by the
		
01:11:13 --> 01:11:16
			way, especially as don't think
right was not what I was reading.
		
01:11:16 --> 01:11:19
			I was reading why people are
atheists. I don't know how I I
		
01:11:19 --> 01:11:24
			skipped that. Good. But apart from
the mortifying bias, there is
		
01:11:24 --> 01:11:28
			another downside to accepting the
beliefs of scientists unchecked
		
01:11:28 --> 01:11:32
			specializations, specialization
forces them to think in a vacuum
		
01:11:32 --> 01:11:38
			specialization is a prized goal in
scientific endeavor. But learning
		
01:11:38 --> 01:11:42
			more and more about less and less
until we know almost everything
		
01:11:42 --> 01:11:45
			about almost nothing has its
pitfalls.
		
01:11:46 --> 01:11:49
			For one, our findings may be
irrelevant to the real world. Take
		
01:11:49 --> 01:11:53
			how a pharmaceutical agent may
alter an enzymatic pathway in the
		
01:11:53 --> 01:11:57
			body as an example, the drug may
elicit the desired change at the
		
01:11:57 --> 01:12:00
			biochemical level in a controlled
lab environment, but it may not
		
01:12:00 --> 01:12:04
			produce any clinically significant
outcomes in test subjects. In
		
01:12:04 --> 01:12:07
			other words, years of successful
research does not actually lead to
		
01:12:07 --> 01:12:12
			any real life benefit. This is why
we have on site classes for teens.
		
01:12:12 --> 01:12:17
			We have youth night, we have soup
kitchen, we have Dawa, we have
		
01:12:17 --> 01:12:21
			live stream so that when people go
to Dr. FET, and study they do not
		
01:12:21 --> 01:12:24
			spend years and years and they
come out realizing oh, this was
		
01:12:24 --> 01:12:28
			irrelevant, right? I have to
relearn how to live now. And how
		
01:12:28 --> 01:12:31
			people think I literally took this
just this year. I like what he was
		
01:12:31 --> 01:12:35
			describing about like, just when
you study a drug? Yeah, they study
		
01:12:35 --> 01:12:38
			like, yeah, sure it's effective.
But now is it clinically like
		
01:12:38 --> 01:12:40
			relevant? Is it gonna work? Is it
like, is it practical? Like
		
01:12:40 --> 01:12:43
			essentially, like, are you gonna
give it like, Is there gonna be
		
01:12:43 --> 01:12:46
			like 13 shots like a patient? I
suppose it like just one pill
		
01:12:46 --> 01:12:48
			like, they can take like in the
beginning of the day. Is it
		
01:12:48 --> 01:12:49
			pragmatic? Yeah.
		
01:12:51 --> 01:12:54
			You know, the guys at the top are
always the super pragmatists.
		
01:12:54 --> 01:12:56
			Yeah, that's why they're making
the decisions.
		
01:12:57 --> 01:12:57
			Okay.
		
01:12:59 --> 01:13:02
			That is not to discount the
immense benefit that we all enjoy
		
01:13:02 --> 01:13:06
			as a result of academic inquiry.
In other words, nerds are good
		
01:13:06 --> 01:13:11
			days used to notice. But we must
be wary when specialists claim
		
01:13:11 --> 01:13:13
			that there are specialized
discovery has certain
		
01:13:13 --> 01:13:15
			applicability in larger context.
		
01:13:16 --> 01:13:19
			This question of when a reduced
finding can be appropriately
		
01:13:19 --> 01:13:22
			generalized as a challenge that
scientists have wrestled with
		
01:13:22 --> 01:13:25
			since the 19th century, says
Sheldrake.
		
01:13:26 --> 01:13:30
			Those who believe in reductionism
say that the whole can be
		
01:13:30 --> 01:13:34
			understood by focusing on a part
that the whole is not greater than
		
01:13:34 --> 01:13:37
			what is composed of it. They are
inclined to generalize limited
		
01:13:37 --> 01:13:41
			findings to mean more than they
actually may. As specialists
		
01:13:41 --> 01:13:45
			dedicate a lifetime looking
through a microscope, it may be
		
01:13:45 --> 01:13:48
			understandable that they are
inclined to reductionist analysis.
		
01:13:48 --> 01:13:52
			After all, there are instances
when it does one brick can teach
		
01:13:52 --> 01:13:56
			us all we need to know about an
entire wall. But reductionism does
		
01:13:56 --> 01:13:58
			not always work. So well.
		
01:13:59 --> 01:14:03
			The inherent flaw of reductionism
and generalization was portrayed
		
01:14:03 --> 01:14:06
			in a parable by the 13th century
Eastern mystic Rumi, and more
		
01:14:06 --> 01:14:11
			recently by the English writer
John Godfrey * in his famous
		
01:14:11 --> 01:14:15
			story of the blind men and the
elephant. Basically, as such, as
		
01:14:15 --> 01:14:17
			each of the blind men touches only
one part of the elephant, he
		
01:14:17 --> 01:14:21
			presumes that part is he is
examining to represent the whole
		
01:14:21 --> 01:14:23
			animal. The man who touches the
tail declares the elephant must be
		
01:14:23 --> 01:14:27
			like a snake, the one who feels a
leg he says it must be like a tree
		
01:14:27 --> 01:14:31
			like a pillar, and the one at the
massive side, he says, it's like a
		
01:14:31 --> 01:14:34
			wall the elephant is like a wall.
Essentially, each man is a
		
01:14:34 --> 01:14:38
			specialist. In the part he
analyzes. The analogy portrays how
		
01:14:38 --> 01:14:43
			someone focus intently may not see
the greater image, okay, it can be
		
01:14:43 --> 01:14:46
			related to how scientists who
focus on one area of study are not
		
01:14:46 --> 01:14:49
			in a position to comment
effectively beyond it to do so
		
01:14:49 --> 01:14:51
			they would need to consider the
fields but don't they always come
		
01:14:51 --> 01:14:54
			to us? You're an Imam, stop
talking about economics and Ribba.
		
01:14:55 --> 01:14:59
			Just stick to Tara and salah. And
we'll do right that's what they
		
01:14:59 --> 01:14:59
			always say.
		
01:15:00 --> 01:15:03
			Whenever someone says anything
about Riba, the guy whose whole
		
01:15:03 --> 01:15:06
			business is based on Nova comes as
Listen, I know, you don't
		
01:15:06 --> 01:15:09
			understand economics. No, I don't
understand your contracts know
		
01:15:09 --> 01:15:12
			that I don't understand all those
derivatives and all that stuff of
		
01:15:12 --> 01:15:15
			your stocks and your contracts
know that I don't understand but
		
01:15:15 --> 01:15:19
			what Allah said about it that I do
understand, right I do understand
		
01:15:19 --> 01:15:23
			that Allah said these kinds of
trades are haram. So you would
		
01:15:23 --> 01:15:24
			then apply that to your contract
now.
		
01:15:26 --> 01:15:29
			Likewise, when they say the
evolutionists, when when we say in
		
01:15:29 --> 01:15:33
			Islam, Allah created Adam,
directly without an antecedent.
		
01:15:34 --> 01:15:37
			That's a fact. Right? In the
Quran, though, you don't
		
01:15:37 --> 01:15:41
			understand evolution, I don't need
to write. When it comes to where
		
01:15:41 --> 01:15:44
			Adam came from, I don't need to
understand that field. They are
		
01:15:44 --> 01:15:46
			not an authority on where Adam
came from.
		
01:15:47 --> 01:15:51
			They're speculating at the best
they can ever get is a speculative
		
01:15:51 --> 01:15:54
			answer, right? Because you weren't
there. Think about it. Just
		
01:15:54 --> 01:15:57
			epistemologically epistemological,
you are not there. The best you
		
01:15:57 --> 01:16:01
			could do is a very, very good case
for how the first human being came
		
01:16:01 --> 01:16:07
			about. Maximum It will be funny.
Okay. Extremely speculative.
		
01:16:09 --> 01:16:16
			Not even funny, Schottky or when
me right when me LM imaginations,
		
01:16:16 --> 01:16:18
			get filling in the blanks of the
of the fossils.
		
01:16:20 --> 01:16:24
			Like dinosaurs, probably maybe
they look like that. Maybe not.
		
01:16:24 --> 01:16:26
			They're filling in a lot of
blanks. I was so like, shocked.
		
01:16:26 --> 01:16:29
			You get to the dinosaur. You see
one color and some bones or
		
01:16:29 --> 01:16:31
			another go, Hey, why is that
count? Well, I was just telling
		
01:16:31 --> 01:16:35
			you that that was the bone. And
that's like a filler.
		
01:16:36 --> 01:16:39
			Yeah, because they didn't have all
the bones. It filled in the
		
01:16:39 --> 01:16:45
			blanks, right? So Oh, ham, oh, ham
is when you have like less than 50
		
01:16:45 --> 01:16:46
			less than 49%.
		
01:16:48 --> 01:16:52
			Likelihood are even less than
that. Far less than that. Check is
		
01:16:52 --> 01:16:59
			like 5051 is more 51% or more.
European is 100%. Well, as a
		
01:16:59 --> 01:17:03
			Muslim, I'm not talking to the non
believers here talking to the
		
01:17:03 --> 01:17:08
			Muslims, the Quran is provides you
again. And when Allah repeat
		
01:17:08 --> 01:17:10
			something over and over with
language that cannot be
		
01:17:10 --> 01:17:14
			interpreted away, I have
absolutely a pain that Allah
		
01:17:14 --> 01:17:16
			created Adam without an
antecedent, antecedent, like a
		
01:17:16 --> 01:17:19
			mother or a father. Right?
		
01:17:21 --> 01:17:25
			Or an amoeba or anything. Right.
And that was my whole debate with
		
01:17:25 --> 01:17:28
			another day, right? A long time
ago.
		
01:17:29 --> 01:17:32
			And I don't even know where he
stands on it. And he said, Allah
		
01:17:32 --> 01:17:35
			is not a statue maker. We said
yes, Adam was a statue. He was
		
01:17:35 --> 01:17:38
			hard like this. So sod and CalHFA
car it's in the book.
		
01:17:39 --> 01:17:43
			It's in the Quran, Sol Sol and
CalHFA car you can knock on him
		
01:17:43 --> 01:17:45
			like that. You could do that to
Adam at one point.
		
01:17:47 --> 01:17:50
			And when is a mammal ever subsonic
alpha in the development of a
		
01:17:50 --> 01:17:51
			mammal
		
01:17:53 --> 01:17:58
			when they're dead, right? And even
that you can't knock right? It all
		
01:17:58 --> 01:18:03
			is powder shatter into into
pieces, right? So saw the *
		
01:18:03 --> 01:18:07
			Khalifa car go explain it. Right
and I'm not this is just like my
		
01:18:07 --> 01:18:10
			theory of Adam's existence or is
this like the entire OMA
		
01:18:11 --> 01:18:15
			go looking at itself as you Adam
was fashioned and he was made and
		
01:18:15 --> 01:18:19
			he was clay and hollow on the
inside, you could knock on him and
		
01:18:19 --> 01:18:22
			there was like an echo too,
because we have hollowness, right?
		
01:18:22 --> 01:18:25
			There's hollowness in the human
being. So
		
01:18:26 --> 01:18:30
			this person was saying know that
he had an antecedent, right? So
		
01:18:30 --> 01:18:33
			even if you did, even if a Muslim
evolutionist
		
01:18:34 --> 01:18:38
			firstly, your marriage is
nullified your gift. There is
		
01:18:38 --> 01:18:42
			indeed that belief is yours,
Hindu, Muslim evolutionist and by
		
01:18:42 --> 01:18:45
			the way, some people say no, no,
he's dead down. Okay, fair enough.
		
01:18:47 --> 01:18:47
			Whatever.
		
01:18:48 --> 01:18:52
			You are way out there, whether
you're like a homerun, it's past
		
01:18:52 --> 01:18:56
			the wall right? Whether it's out
of the park, section one section
		
01:18:56 --> 01:18:59
			two or out of the park, you're out
right of the truth. You're far
		
01:18:59 --> 01:19:00
			from the truth.
		
01:19:01 --> 01:19:04
			Because I remember debating with
my friend is the Muslim
		
01:19:04 --> 01:19:08
			evolutionist. He said that it's a
bit more festive, according to his
		
01:19:08 --> 01:19:12
			scholars, but according to who I
watch it from it's been I'm okay
		
01:19:12 --> 01:19:12
			Farah.
		
01:19:14 --> 01:19:16
			Copy. And it's whatsoever.
		
01:19:17 --> 01:19:20
			Yeah, and it's modeled in a gym
with regard to data.
		
01:19:21 --> 01:19:21
			Next,
		
01:19:23 --> 01:19:25
			if you were to scientifically
explained that Adam came from this
		
01:19:25 --> 01:19:28
			animal who came from this animal
came from this, why don't you
		
01:19:28 --> 01:19:31
			still have to come to something in
which Allah says configuring,
		
01:19:31 --> 01:19:35
			right? So why are you kicking the
can down the road? Why would it be
		
01:19:35 --> 01:19:39
			difficult for a lot to create a
particle? You don't find it
		
01:19:39 --> 01:19:41
			difficult? Eventually, you're
gonna have to at least Allah will
		
01:19:41 --> 01:19:44
			say, could for a particle to
exist, right? What's the
		
01:19:44 --> 01:19:47
			difference for Allah to say
couldn't for a particle, or human
		
01:19:47 --> 01:19:52
			being or an entire universe, same
for Allah? Right? All of it could
		
01:19:52 --> 01:19:56
			exist in the blink of an eye. And
less than that, by saying Could a
		
01:19:56 --> 01:20:00
			particle could exist? A whole
human could exist an entire
		
01:20:00 --> 01:20:03
			Higher society with a universe and
a world could exist when Allah
		
01:20:03 --> 01:20:07
			says confit. What's the
difference? As hard to believe as
		
01:20:07 --> 01:20:08
			a Muslim. In any event,
		
01:20:10 --> 01:20:13
			essentially, each man is a
specialist in the part and they
		
01:20:13 --> 01:20:17
			portray the whole to be what they
imagined and they do not see the
		
01:20:17 --> 01:20:20
			greater image it can be related to
how scientists who focus on one
		
01:20:20 --> 01:20:24
			area of study are not opposites,
comets are effectively beyond it
		
01:20:24 --> 01:20:27
			to do so they would need to
consider the fields of others.
		
01:20:27 --> 01:20:33
			Okay. To give you another example
of this, someone says to you is
		
01:20:33 --> 01:20:34
			the
		
01:20:35 --> 01:20:42
			Hindu god, Is he real? And you say
no, is covered and is not real? He
		
01:20:42 --> 01:20:44
			says, Yeah, but you don't know
anything about the Hindu gods.
		
01:20:45 --> 01:20:49
			What do I need to know? All right.
All I need to know is that in
		
01:20:49 --> 01:20:53
			Islam, we don't have schicke all
these idols are false. I don't
		
01:20:53 --> 01:20:57
			need to know any information about
your idols except that you worship
		
01:20:57 --> 01:21:01
			it. Then it's I can say it's
false. So false God got to do so
		
01:21:01 --> 01:21:05
			they would need to consider other
fields it is to this that
		
01:21:05 --> 01:21:05
			psychiatr
