Salam Alaikum everyone
saying don't hit here. Check out the gym out on instant
How's everyone doing there
man Ames is here
shake Asuka Phyllis of the Filipinos you know that he's a
sixth year of the Filipinos
Pixley Isaac Suroosh Caitlin Shima
earlier they have had brothers problem is that Syrian because
it's a very popular Palestinian name
alright today folks are sticking out here.
Got the little
you know that little bang that even sometimes people put out
there in their head?
Well I'm not doing it for my goofy. So
today some people asked here that we have some Tunisian attendees
and they asked, we need you to talk about Tunisia to educate
people what's going on in Tunisia. Now a lot of people don't know
where Tunisia even is, let alone what's happening in Tunisia. And
the purpose of Wednesday's stream
is to touch upon news of the Islamic world. What's going on in
the OMA is as a way to connect or omit to get educated. Like a lot
of a lot of people they enter into Dean and they want the Dean right.
Of course, we want to benefit ourselves. We want to come near to
Allah to Allah, etc. Okay, so
but the issue is that the Prophet himself has told us what's good
for us, not just what we want
and what's good for us
is to have have now to be connected to our Ummah
that's what's good for us to be connected to our Oma. Okay, audio
is on right? Okay, so I think some people they log on in their
computers
or their phone is on mute or something. So we got to know
what's what is happening in our OMA and that's something that may
not be second nature to somebody, right?
But we have to do it, whether we like it or not. And as you grow
older, you realize it is important to keep in touch and have a clue
what's going on in our own world. So Tunisia is what the early
Islamic scholars call it used to call if the if the whenever the
scholars used to call say if we clear in the first 434
generations, what they meant was Tunisia.
And specifically the city of Plato and the cotton the Jama that's
their the masjid that was the center of Title One was zaytuna
Gemma zaytoun Which zaytuna College is named after good they
actually she comes to us if I remember saying he wanted to name
it cutter we Yean because that's the College of Morocco. It's the
first ever university in the world place dedicated to for higher
learning and it was founded by one of the descendants of the
companion who arrived first arrived companion or Tebay. Can't
recall that arrived to
the Islamic the Arab west as they call it, which is Morocco. And her
name was faultiness Algeria. She is the founder of this Masjid
which she dedicated to higher learning so not like teaching kids
you remember his name?
No. Sunday school
so she dedicated to higher learning and that is considered
the first university in Islam but Qatar we in was really hard to say
on the tongue. And Qatar we was actually named after Cairo one
like so people from Cairo and Tunisia, which is the capital city
of Islamic learning and Islamic culture in
in the in the north in North Africa, when those people moved
into the city of Fez, Morocco
They name that district where they lived after acleda one. So the
Cairo any people, by the way many people call it a win. So when they
established a masjid there they call the Masjid Al kata Yang
but he realized it's hard on the tongue to say kata we. Okay, so he
went with the next
University in North Africa
and an earlier as a masjid It was
founded before the Kirrawee in which is zaytuna Gemma zetonna. So
they named it after that. But
when the scholars say if reappear, what they meant is North Africa,
specifically,
Tunisia, and specifically title one. Alright, so now you know some
things about North Africa and Tunisia.
New York Times has released an article saying that Tunisians have
approved a new constitution that cements the one man rule,
instituted by Christ side over the past year, according to the
results of a referendum released on Tuesday, dealing with a body
blow to a democracy builds with immense effort and high hopes,
after the overthrow of the country's dictator more than a
decade ago.
Tunisia where the Arab Spring
uprising began in 2011, there's, by the way, there's no feedback or
fuzziness. Is there.
Perfect. Good. Testing. It's good, right? There's no fuzziness or
anything. I don't know why this headphone, maybe it's the
headphone itself. I getting fuzziness when I listened to it.
Just weird. Anyway, I just won't listen to them.
Tunisia, where the Arab Spring uprising began in 2011. So in
2011, you remember what happened now?
It was such a random event that just
set fire across the Arab world.
And it was all based upon just theft or oppression of the
leadership and anger of the people we go to.
That's fine, but no fuzziness from here. Okay, good. So, the issue
with that is that many many of the side of hand they were very
suspicious about this Arab Spring. Yes, the the oppressors, that was
true. All of those rulers, they're stealing money. They're not caring
for the people. simple equation, right?
No one disagreed with that. But the motive was almost just like
pure anger over the distribution of wealth. And that is a
revolution that Allah leaves you if it works for you. It works, but
he doesn't support that. There was no anger about the disobedience of
Allah has nothing to do with Islam. The Arab Spring had nothing
to do with the deen, right.
And medic when he was asked about an oppressor and a person who is
not on the deen, like someone far from Deen facet, someone not on
deen and an oppressor and they're fighting each other? What's our
position on that medic said, Let the oppressor fight the oppressor
and let us be safe in between, right. It's not to say that the
people were oppressors, they're the victims. But their means or
their philosophy was not a philosophy of
truth, Huck and Dean.
There were it was a mixed bag of people. They're just angry at the
theft
and the
oppression of the dictators. So on a random day, in I think it was
early spring of 2011.
A guy was working, selling food outside
some corner in the street,
like a grease truck.
And the police gave him a ticket and said, you don't have a right
to be here.
And he's had this argument with them. And he's like, this is the
only way I can eat like selling corn or something on the street.
So
he ends up having a back and forth with them. I think it was over a
period of time. And they said, Nicholas, we're going to take your
card away. He's like, what? You're taking my card away. I'm barely
eating. And I'm just selling food. It's like totally innocent here,
right? This is where the Libertarians are correct. Right?
Like basic things and you need 1000 permits to do it. Now I
understand you're gonna sell food to the public. You need some kind
of permit, right? But this guy, they give him a hard time. He ends
up taking some gasoline, pouring it on himself,
drenching himself and then lights himself on fire and dies.
Okay,
because he just can't take it anymore. Not that that's
justified, but that's the reason he did it. Got
that
hit like it just nobody knew the impact that that would have. And
the Tunisians they storm they they basically not rioted, they marched
for 30 days.
And the guy couldn't stop the king. The President knew he
couldn't stop them. So he resigned.
And when all the other shows are the people looked and saw that
they're like, eyes grew up big and like wavy, we could do that, too.
That's all they did was March. There was no violence.
By the way, it's totally hello to March. So they marched in Egypt 11
days, down. 11 days, right. 11 That's it. All they did was hit
the streets for 11 days.
Now Syria was another story. Syria is not a unified people, the LOA
its leadership and Sunni population. It's different. And
the loi, it's it got violent in Syria, Syria was a disaster.
So that's the summary when they say Arab Spring, what's going on?
Got a little bit of a historic background, their modern Arab
history, modern art history is terrible. It's just misery. Right?
Like and there. And to be honest with you, I don't always see I
don't know who to root for, like there's no as a Muslim looking
well, who here is sort of in line with Dean. There's like some
groups here and there.
So it was lauded as the only democracy to survive the Arab
Spring, because very quickly, after Egypt voted in the Islamic
Brotherhood Muslim Brotherhood, then the army took over the
military said, enough of this Islamic Brotherhood year out. They
took over Syria, Civil War, and they never got the guy out. But he
paid the price that three forts of his country is like rubble.
Who else did an Arab Spring Sudan, I think. And then the Gulf
countries, they locked down. So Saudi, he gave out $17,000 to each
family to basically stay home. Right, so and the Emirates, of
course, that guy has got his country on lockdown.
His name is Mohammed bin Zayed MBZ. And the Saudi
King is MBs. He's not King yet. But technically, but but in every
way, except the official way. He's king, his dad is officially king.
But Sandman is officially king. But MBS is actually kink.
So they they've put their countries on lockdown.
And they promoted scholars that spoke out against
democracy and for obeying the ruler. And that's where there's a
lot of controversy of who signed up for that. Why would anyone sign
up for that? Why would people go for that, but that's what they
did.
That's what they did. They promoted scholars who were would
agree with their position. Yemen had one too, and that ended up in
a disaster to worse disaster because when Yemen was shaky,
Yemen is 5050 to the north is Shia, and the South is Sunni. So
Iran got involved, and Saudi got involved, and that was a disaster.
Okay.
So there was a lot of stuff that went on in Libya. Libya was also
they got Qaddafi, then I don't know.
Qaddafi was it was like, his whole rule was oppressive, very, very
oppressive. He had spies everywhere in the world, America,
England to make sure any Libyan dissident was scared. And we knew
Libyan dissidents, they were scared. Right. Qaddafi was like
that he was vicious on that. Okay. And so Qaddafi when he realized
he's not getting any help from the Arabs, he went to become the
champion of Africa. And they loved him. Right? They did like love
Qaddafi. You don't know if it's, it's a level of, in my opinion, my
philosophy of it. It's evil. That turned insane. I think he
literally went insane. Right. And his insanity was the type of
insanity that bordered on, on humorous on purpose. It's like I
don't know if he's trying to be funny. Or he's so crazy that it's
funny. Like, for example, he came for the United Nations when he
whenever you would come to the United Nations meeting and the
General Assembly to give his speech,
right guess where he would stay?
The guy puts in a request to the mayor of New York,
to pitch a tent in central
FARC he said I'm a I'm a desert Bedouin, I can't live in a hotel,
I need a tent. He lives in a tent now. He fasts, Monday and
Thursday. And he has an entourage of two Eastern European women that
dressed in like military garb. And he says, this is okay in the
shittier. Because I need somebody to give me my daughter, my pills,
that he walks around with these two Eastern European women dressed
in like military garb. He always dresses in his big, the big
clothes, and he stays in the United Nations in Central Park in
a tent. It's just like, what? If you're living, you're just like
put, say, or something else. Say you're Italian. Say you say
something else.
Unbelievable. That guy.
Okay. The guy was just insane. And he'd give these two hour speeches.
They knocked him out. Okay.
They killed him. He was killed in the streets by just some thugs.
And some people say the CIA got them out. And who knows, who
knows. But Libya turned out to be an ISIS playground.
ISIS was born and developed, right in this Arab Spring, not born, but
it was developed, fomented into this or in this Arab Spring time.
And then the Emirates MBZ eventually got control over Libya
with his boy there, he put in his way there. In any event, that's a
quick summary about the Arab Spring, which turned into a long,
cold Arab winter,
in which the top dogs now are the Emirates and NBC and MBs, that the
top dogs of the Arab world right now they're in complete control.
And Israel is very happy. They were very worried. Now they're
very happy. Okay, because once Egypt went to the Islamic parties,
they were like this is that this is the end time. So that's it.
But they found a way to knock that party out of there and to put the
military in.
So a new charter has basically ended what was lauded as the only
democracy to survive, which is Tunisia. Good. Now, democracy is
not always the best
system, but sometimes it has some positives to it.
Still, the referendum on Monday was undercut by mass boycotts,
voter apathy, and it was set up to favor Mr. Saeed.
The Constitution was approved by 94.6% of voters, according to the
results released by the Electoral authority.
What electoral authority is governed by the guy himself? The
masses that came out Tuesday today across the country show the
significance of this moment, Mr. Stein said an address to cheering
supporters in downtown Tunis a few hours after the polls close today
marks a new chapter of hope and turning the page on poverty,
despair, and injustice. In his remarks Mr. Saeed denied any
tendency towards authoritarianism. But the new constitution will turn
Tunisia into a presidential system, like the one that had
under Zane and Aberdeen Bennati. The authoritarian ruler toppled in
the so called Jasmine revolution or Arab spring of 2011. It weakens
the parliament and most other checks on the president's power,
while giving the head of state or ultimate authority to form a
government appoint judges and present laws. Okay.
It serves it preserves most of the 2014 constitution was caused
concerning rights and liberties. But in contrast to previous
constitutions, which divide power between parliament and President,
the new one demotes, the legislator and judiciary to
something more like a civil servants, granting the president
alone authority to appoint government ministers and judges
and weakening the parliament. So here's the thing. I'll tell you
where democracy has merit when you can't trust anybody, when nobody's
good, right?
When you have a good ruler in Islam, and you have a ruler, and
He's righteous you He does have a lot of power.
And he's got the responsibility to the point the judges and appoint
all the ministers himself. And if anything goes wrong in the
country, the responsibility is back on him. But what happens when
you can't really trust anybody? Nobody's good.
So then it's whatever you choose not going to be good. Best thing
is to just divide it up amongst them. So it's all least possible
harms, okay.
least possible harms when when you don't have any kind of person that
you or it's not even person. The ruler is just a reflection of the
people and the culture of their
is not a culture that is going to bring forth a leader or some
righteous leader. Those are the old days. This is the new era is
their righteousness and Taqwa and Deen. That's not something that
that that it's out there in the popular sphere, maybe in the
streets, some people here in there. So we're talking from the
aspect of what we care about, which is the dean and the Huck an
amen and Taqwa. But you need masses of people to be on the same
vibration, that same wavelength, that same heart, in order to ever
even think
about that rising up to the level of governance. So let's just rise
up to the level of governance because most of you
don't want it most people wanted it. And it's not just that they
don't want it. There's
there's two things there's a clause and sick. Loss, is that you
you're pure in your desire, but sick is that you're truthful in
seeking your desire. There's a lot of people who have a clause you
ask them, Why are you doing something? Just sick of Allah?
That's it.
sake of Allah,
Allah loves the deen, what do you love the deen? Now ask the
question of sick. All right. You love the dean?
Where's your? What do you done for it? What have you sacrificed for
it? They lack sit. Sit means I can truly put my head on the pillow
and say I tried 110% I put in 100% effort. That's sick. So you have
to understand the difference between IQ loss and sit or Eman
and sit? Welcome to
our friend Lavon Lavon brown he's from MC GP and he's a friend of
ours now he's a member now mashallah of the YouTube channel.
But back to the topic.
A class is one thing. Yes, you can walk around the streets asked me
what would you like the deen of Allah. Right? Many people say
this. But that's not enough. Do you have sick? If you have sick,
then you start asking questions. What did you have done for it?
What are you doing for it?
Where's the effort? Have you turned over every every stone
possible? So that's the question we have to ask. It's not just that
you we have to love the dean. And that's why I talked to him. I
don't know if I taught was it here that Ryan that I talked about the
category of Muslims that are lukewarm.
That was in class we never talked about on the live stream. There is
a category of people that they're neither
against you. Nor are they praiseworthy.
I think that's the best way to put it. They're not against you.
They're support you. Therefore, you, they love the dean. And they
love the Dow and they love the Imams, and they love the symbols
of religion and the shoe.
But they're also have not entered the level of praise worthiness.
Because their effort is weak.
They haven't fully put in the full effort. Right. And as a result of
that they're doing some matters of deen and not others.
Okay. Now, the issue is the question of excuses. Do they have
excuses? Yes, we make excuses for them in specific, but as a general
category, we have to encourage what is also but what's also been
Huck, they want to also be subject to also Bill Huck. Not to also
Bill other to also means to advise and push and, and encourage. You
don't encourage people to have excuses. Even though when I see a
specific person.
And I see them. Yeah, they like the dean, but they're also they
got certain things about them. They're not doing not doing the
whole Dean, right. I'll make an personal excuse for them. And
that's the Sunnah. That's how we're supposed to do things. But
as a general category, this lukewarm attitude that alright,
I'm just gonna love the dean. I'm gonna go to the all the mustard
events. We have to tell you, as a matter of honesty, and as a matter
of sincerity, that what you fulfilled
is half the battle. What you're missing is sick.
Your met your commitment, level six is commitment.
So it pays to be able to put your head on the pillow and say, I put
100% effort.
I sacrificed I took the hits, I took the blows.
And some people have done some people don't.
We're not blaming them. We're making it clear to them. And to
ourselves. I mean, we got this to not every one of us is perfect
either.
I mean ever even people who think that they're fulfilling Dean
there's something
that you don't even know that you're that you're missing, like
you're not even aware that you're missing out on it in their Deen.
But at least in the obligations and prohibitions we should be able
to know. Like Allah has doesn't has mysteries on obligations or
prohibitions, you know that you're fulfilling them or you're not.
Alright.
So the question is that, do we have CIP
and that is, I'm putting a serious effort here. And I really am not
going to allow myself at least in the outwards things, just to have
a shortcoming and obligations or prohibitions. That's the basic
line to become what's called sada.
What is a sada, someone who fulfills his obligations? And he
avoids the prohibitions inwardly and outwardly. Okay.
So we need to sit and when I, whenever I look at the majority of
people in the Samak world, yeah, I see that there is a lot of people
who love Deen, but there's not a lot of sick. Right? There's a lot
of the first resistance we back off the first push we back off,
right?
And few people, you look around, and they refuse to back off.
I have to do some hunting, I'll find another job. I can't live in
this place. I'll find another home. How hard is that? But that's
sick.
That's sick.
We continue reading this.
This article here just for the sake of having a concept what's
happening in the home of Islam.
Dino says is that not real love? No, we say it's real love. But
it's weak. It's incomplete. Those types which we call we just say
the lukewarm that means he loves a dream. But he hasn't fulfilled the
quality of sit a solid, he's not a solid, he still has open li doing
certain things that are haram and not fulfilling obligations from
the outward, which we can see. So we say they have love, but it's
not strong enough.
It's almost like admiration more than love. Right.
And so if we're sincere, we should make excuses for that person and
have a good opinion of that individual.
But yet at the same time, we have to give them the actual reality of
things because the moment is the mirror of the moment.
That means I cannot allow you know something wrong to continue
with my Muslim brother and sister and not say something. But the
question is, how do you say it? And with what context and with
what feeling to that's the question with what intention with
What motive and if you do it without loving the person, they
won't accept it, and they shouldn't accept it. Okay.
So that's the key. And that's the Sunnah the Prophet loved the
people. Then when he gave him advice, it they swallowed it.
Right, it was able to be digested.
This referendum could spell the end
of a democracy that was already young,
and which the Tunisians had already come to view as corrupt
and inadequate at guaranteeing bread, freedom and dignity. We as
an OMA will never ever rise up until bread freedom and dignity
are
the second tranche of priorities and the first priority is ad hoc.
submission to Allah and his messenger SallAllahu. It was
sudden, but who are we talking to? Right? Bread freedom and dignity
was the chin in 2011. Okay.
But with turnout low 30% of the people didn't even show up to vote
no, you couldn't care less. They believe it's a bunch of nonsense.
It's a bunch of nonsense. So I had a says, does it mean Tunisia is
not a Muslim country? Now check this out. From the aspect of the
if we define in a Muslim country as the majority of the residents
are Muslim than their Muslim countries, but the correct
definition or a more correct definition is that the law of the
land is the Sharia. That's the definition of an Islamic country,
not the population. Right. So there's different definitions of
what is dotted with Islam and but there is one that's recent. I
mean, that that is pretty strong. That says that. Dotted Islam is
where the law of Allah is the Sharia is the law.
In that case, we don't have any Darla slums. We just have majority
Muslim countries and not
so
that's the difference. I mean, if you look at the picture here, you
You don't know if you're in Italy, Spain or Tunisia? I mean, the
there's no mark of Islam on the people. And we care about that. We
do care about that. Right? Oh, you shouldn't care about that word.
Really? What if I were a Hitler? Nazi jacket? All of a sudden you
care about that word, right?
Okay, we don't care about the outward but wear this pin that
shows that you're an ally.
So no, your outward counts, but our outward doesn't count. That's
usually how it is. I mean, just just look like regular guys,
regular Western people. No,
nothing there. This is a regular Western, Western nation. That's
just what it is. Right?
When we talk about Dean, and talk about all these things, it's
really just for us to have an idea, right?
Because the concepts of like the people
calling for the concept of rule by Sharia is just so far out.
And it's not even it's not realistic to even expect it. So
it's just something that we believe in. Muhammad says the
point about the advantage of democracy is when the ruler is
corrupt, is proven true. And you can Pakistan. Exactly.
Right. It's, it's when you have when you can't trust anyone divide
the power amongst them.
If you can trust somebody, then we could go with the way that Allah
has.
You know, the way of Sharia, which is that there's a lot of power in
the Sultan's Sultan's hands.
Good.
We also know that the new constitution includes weakened
checks and balances.
So they ended up with another basically
I don't have to say dictatorship, but it's close to that. The
inability of democratic systems to deliver good jobs and put food on
the table. See, if people are naive in the first place.
Government systems do not put food on the table. Am I wrong about
that, but it's not a system or a president that puts food on the
table
it's an entire
culture of work Innovation Development, and yes, the
government has to do with facilitating all this stuff is not
fully their issue. Okay.
Let's see what Sahaja says so why don't these people just come out
live in the west they want to make their country a Western country
which it is
what is rubbish Mohammed saying a read me that a Saddam when a
complete what
is developed into ISIL is not going to be today until another
time.
We already have a whole video on that and we need to probably clip
it up.
But the summary is that the prophets I seldom taught is to
have Arthur with Malayaka there's no doubt about it, no discussion.
By 2021, two thirds of the Tunisians
had associated democracy with instability,
indecision and a weak economy.
See, the Islamic parties in the Arab world. They're the ones who
promote democracy because they're confident that the people will
vote for them.
And the liberals of the Islamic countries, they know that they're
gonna get voted out. So they want authoritarianism. It's the exact
opposite of what you would expect.
When Mr. Side seized power, a year ago, celebrations erupted. You got
what you wanted, you'd like to go and he turned out to be a
dictator. Same with Egypt. They love the guy. They
cheered for CC to come in. And now he's like, Oh, he's a dictator.
And the currency is terrible. And the price of vegetables is even
too high.
Why are you watching this guy? Now drink?
It's what they say.
Alright, you made the bed now sleeping, which I never understood
that saying because you make the bed after you're done sleeping.
But you made the bed now sleeping it.
Post polls showed an overwhelming majority of Tunisians supported
him.
He declared his power grab necessary to fulfill the long
unmet goals of the revolution. All right, I now ordered to give you
power. I need to take all the power for myself. classic old
school gangster move there. Get us there says you pay peanuts. You
get monkeys. Thank you.
If you tell me about democracy, he said or human rights at all that
stuff? We haven't seen any of it in the last 10 years. says not him
but another person. A 50 year old bank employee who cast a yes. All
right on Monday. What is happening is today is a new era. He says it
can't be more
worse than it was over the last decade. Oh, yes. It can never
trust anybody who says it can't be worse. It can always be worse.
Okay. Can always be worse.
He said he did not mind the Constitution is concentration of
power in the hands of the president. A boat needs one
captain. I sort of agree with that too. Right? When you got a whole
if you got
a whole bunch of incompetent people, you don't want a council
of incompetent people. Right. So from one aspect
sort of right about that. For supporters, and added spur in
voting for Mr. Sides new constitution was the dread that
the Islamic party okay, that dominated parliament before Mr.
Sayed dissolved, it would return to power. So they wanted to make
sure to cut this Islamic party off and put Mr. Saeed in full control
to shut down this Islamic party.
The low turnout reflects the weakened support of Mr. Saeed over
the last year. Well,
he benefited from that weakness. If you don't like him, go against
him.
Don't stay home. What's the point? Tunisians questioned his focus
above all else, on putting a new constitution in place and making
other political reforms? The price of bread and other staples were
soaring. See, if all you care about is the price of bread,
then your concern is very low. All real reforms. There principled
reforms. They're based on a philosophy, not just every two
sentences, the price of bread, the price of bread, the price of gas,
the price of meat, the price of squash, the price.
I mean, it's just a low concern.
Plan C says he's just a less corrupt leader than Oh, they're
talking about Imran Khan say I can't talk about Imran Khan.
There's too many people in the audience who know more about
Pakistan and not a lot of Tunisians so I can sound like I
know what I'm talking about here.
Anyway, it's just more of the same.
More of the same in the Arab world. Let's take some q&a. And
then we have to leave early today. And we have the Duat. today don't
forget we have a dua of Yeoman, RBI being God with us. Let's wait
for a second here for these to load.
Go ahead, read it to me you.
Earlier in the week mentioned it's not right to live in non Muslim
countries unless you have an excuse. So if it's not a country
isn't defined by its people, we don't have Islamic countries.
Well, their stomach country they sort of differed on the definition
some being defined as the residents and some by the law.
Okay. And so as a general rule, however you cut it, and however
you define it, the general rule is prohibition
of living in a non Muslim country. But the every rule has exceptions.
That exception it may be one exception, but applies to millions
of people. Right. You see, that's the thing. It may be one
exception, but it applies to millions of people.
Right, next question.
Are you familiar with Shift Akhmed? I think it was Zulu.
What's up? Let's look at Zara look. There'll be one of the
biographies we do okay.
Next
is there a keytab called Dada? Dada and Nora said I would have to
share that he has a his God has been known.
Yes. There's probably many people who have that
and there is a specific drop from the Prophet sallallahu it was
something
that is Allah majali nuneham Fear Kobe Wounaan V buttery nuneham
fielack me and viola we will read it one day. So yes, we should read
it like every Monday before the stream starts or every day even.
Next question, can you please make it for my mother she has
depression and the medicine gives her side effects she prays so much
know how to Lakota just so much Dekton diets
may Allah subhanaw taala
give her a speedy she felt lots out to give her a speedy she felt
it's nothing
There's nothing
easy to deal with depression these things.
Next, according matrei Turn your mic into that. Yeah, according to
yesterday, 300 years before
Even Jamie Jamia the majority of Muslims were authority. Think,
okay. I mean he'd have to he's the one who's making the claim so he'd
have to show the proof or was there a consensus?
Just look at the biggest names of the scholars.
There's not a medical scholar until the mingling of Saudi and
Moroccan scholarship does not automatically that was not a study
not a Hanafi that wasn't meant to really show me one
right it makes there's not a chef a that wasn't an SRT show me one.
Yes, next can you make so that
multiple times a day? Yes, you can. Aslam, you can make it
multiple times a day and you can intend it
with every Sunday. So every Sunday be selected Hydra.
is the proof for the single to steam of the medical school
greater than the proof of the choice system to steam that every
year? Yes, but both are strong. Both are completely valid.
Are there any classical texts on Islamic government governor is yes
Eslami governance you read the classical texts by
an MOA de Imam and Modi and it's translated that's one of the best
summaries
remember what to do
next when doing
white wiping over socks nests over socks Do you wipe once or three
times? Firstly, only the 100 but a wipe over the socks we wipe over
the roof and the Hanif likewise, and the chef a
wipe over anything waterproof and it's one wipe on the top that's it
and the bottom is sunnah let me take one from here from Israel
Caitlin says does repeating dua all day increase the chance of
each other Yes
and it's not just all day it's every day nonstop you don't stop
if you want something you won't stop if you want something you
wait
next if we pass gas during we do do we start over
if you pass gas during will do you have to start over yes
actually becomes deeper actually actually can take so sit because
we talked about is we don't leave any stone unturned in our path to
Allah Tada we don't cut corners it's just truthful work hard work
in anything sit because required and by the way, this isn't
anything. If you truly apply SIP in all anything you'll get great
success.
Here's let me take one from Instagram.
Alright, there's consensus amongst the four schools that you can't
wipe over thin normal socks. No the 100 Bella don't have that rule
100 But allow that.
Why did Imam Abu Hanifa and Imam Malik and Imam Shafi not like that
best? I never heard that they don't like that best. Like which
you are best there are many different Abbasids
bested Khalifa is that they lived through mango slicer says is
selling or neutering cats haram.
Not but selling is illegal. It's adoption fee. And you have to have
a license to do that. That you have next.
Can we do stuff for the sake of the profit? Of course. What do you
mean? Yeah, what does that mean? That's just the question. Can we
do stuff for the sake of the product?
Can they do stuff for the sake of the profits? I said no. Can one do
something and I guess the reward just like you're doing something
to make the profit happy? Yes, you can do that. Well Allah who are a
Zulu who are hubco and Euro though, okay, well, Allahu Allah,
Sulu, Hua Quan YOLO. Allah and His messenger are more worthy to
please. So you're we're allowed to have the mentality all the profit
would be happy if I did this.
Okay, which Muslim country is the closest to fall into Sharia at the
city? I can't say and it's not it's I can't say I don't know all
their laws. And I don't know how they implement and execute their
laws and justices observed. But if I if I had to ask, the probably
the place I would trust most to live in would be Malaysia, because
they seem to have less oppression and better property rights than
any other country. But I may not want to live in Malaysia. It's a
completely different culture than what I'm used to. But I've and
it's so far away than where I'm used to living. But if I had to,
it's probably it would be Malaysia from what I hear about it that you
don't always hear that people just van rolls up and fill it in and
throw these people in jail. So happens in Egypt all the time. A
van rolls up, you you you get in the van. Why? I heard you talking
about a slump, boom, go to jail and
Maybe that's an exaggeration to in the same way that people in,
in other countries may think that we like everyday is people getting
shot. We have a lot of shootings. Right? It's true. But relative to
the actual size of the country, we don't necessarily
like actually, most people will never experience it. So there may
be an image. That's not true. Likewise, this flip flip side, we
may imagine all Egypt is all oppression, and all these
countries are all oppression. But I'm sure millions of people just
moving on with life. Right? So there's a perception issue here.
But nonetheless, if I was given a choice, I'd say Malaysia, I don't
know if I would be happy. But I know that their
property rights and generally people aren't just thrown in jail,
and you're allowed to do what you want to do in terms of the deen
there. There's a lot of freedoms in that respect.
What's here's a question that says
Where's where's EMS? Question?
Did we answer EMS question what Muslim country? Yes, we answered
that. Dino palabora says I think they claim all the 40 Memes are
fit.
The 40 Memes are represented who's going to know best about the
memes, random person or their followers, who's going to know
best about the chef, a mammoth chef a what Imam Shafi actually
meant and vice principals were a random person,
or the chef phase themselves, or even Hodgdon and Noah we.
So as I don't feel that anyone has the right to just comment on the
40 memes, when they have their own followers who studied that Imam,
more than anybody else, right?
And they know inside out all of his principles, not just his
words, his principles, when you have a principle, okay, then when
a new issue comes up, you apply the principle and you get that
result. So that Imam may have not had that results. He never said
that result. But he never had that problem. But because he set some
principles, when we apply his principles to this new issue, then
we end up with that result, that must be the Imams position on it.
You see, so if I'm if I say position, listen,
if someone comes, I want you to be here at 530. But
if someone comes, knocks on the door, I need you to be nice to
them, and be pleasant with them and host them. Okay, that's the
most important thing.
So I didn't say be late, but based on my principal, if 529 and
someone knocks on the door, then following my principle, I accept
you being late. You see, so when an imam has a principle,
he doesn't face all the problems because certain issues haven't
come up yet. certain questions haven't come up yet. So the
followers of that Imam will apply his principle to the new matter.
And come up with a result that will be that Imams principle
method on the issue, you understand. Next question? Can you
notice that a few marrying and Nipah nonsense? I think in
religion, you got to have the same in marriage, you got to have the
same beliefs. Personal personal opinion on that is that you can
only have different beliefs on subjects you don't care about.
too strongly. Right? If you care strongly about a subject, then
when you marry, you both need to have the same opinion on it.
That's my opinion on
next.
Is there a difference between having a doubt or uncertainty and
knowing that we have forgotten or missed something in namaz? Do we
have to do such as So in both cases, if you
have a doubt that is a strong that is a strong doubt
in an obligatory matter of the prayer, then that whole rock is
canceled. Bring another America and pray to sujood so after the
salam if you have a doubt about missing a sunnah
then you do suggest so only before the salam
okay
so anytime that you added to the Salah, you do the suture just so
after the salam anytime that you've decreased from the Salah,
you do sudo to sell before the Salaam and the person who receives
doubt every single day. He ignores all his dose. He's called an Wes
was
okay, was thank God check he receives. He has some kind of a
doubt about his will do or his sulla every single day he should
ignore it all. Next question.
Yes. What is he saying?
What happened to HK 787 and
Sofia's friend we need an update. Oh, is there any person known to
be from the Abdallah today Subhanallah yesterday in Tafseer
class reading about a call to bees Tafseer on
students at Bacara
well hola deaf Allah He nurse about the home development in the
facility. Well I can Allah do further than Allah Allah mean?
This beautiful I have Surah Al Baqarah
it what does it mean? If it was not for Allah to Allah to repel
one people with another from the Tafseer of that and according to
be ends up on the discussion of Abdel What are Abdullah have done
are 40 people on the earth at any given time, whose hearts are
filled with sincerity for the OMA completely purified, and they are
the pegs of faith on the earth. And they used to be prophets,
until the time of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
prophecy is now cut off. So they have been replaced with pious or
the Elia of the ummah of Islam. Hence, their title, The
Replacements that's the meaning of Abdel is the replacements. So
faith, amen.
Deen was established by prophets, for all of humanity until the time
at the home of the Robert Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Now
it's established by the believers themselves. Amongst the believers
themselves are 40 Abdel
and the bulk of them are in Syria.
The hadith, there's always mentioning Syria, in relation to
these Abdel in some Hadith all of them are in Syria, others say some
Syria and Iraq.
But these have dead, they have perfected their hearts in terms of
purifying its loss to Allah subhana wa Tada. So much so that
the prophet describes them as having they have been in Allah,
similar to the opinion of Prophet Ibrahim, without them being
prophets. So because of them, tribulations are avoided and
nourishment, and Rama comes down.
They don't bring it down, but because of them through them,
Allah to Allah nourishes the earth with iman and Islam. Okay. And of
course, if the corruption is greater, right, then it doesn't
mean this doesn't mean that we have victory all the time, just
because we have done if it's not something Allah wills, they don't
have a will of their own. They merely reflect Allah's will. So
that's the concept and idea of the Abdel. All right, you have next
question makes sure we try to get those that are giving us
exclamation points, and sirens and things like that. You got
yesterday, you mentioned we have to take a means to get a
professional set the alarm and if you sleep all the same, you're
forgiven. But if you sleep too late,
you also have to know yourself. If you if you are intentionally just
staying up really late. Knowing
that you're going to miss fudge. Yeah, there could be some degree
of sinfulness on you, you know that you're gonna miss fudge. I
remember being with some,
some people where I was young, and we were staying at their house for
like, two, three weeks. In another country, I'm not going to say
which country. And every single day in the month of Ramadan, the
Hangout would literally start at about 10:30pm The food comes out
again, the first show comes on from like 11 to 12. The second
show comes on from 12 to one at one o'clock, another round of tea
comes out. And then some of the men would go to a tent that was
set up in the middle of the town. And at that tent would be tables
everywhere tables. And what are these tables? Backgammon? Chess
cards and people go around with tea and sweets? A singer? These
are the tents of Ramadan. I'm like, Are we supposed to the
opposite here? The tents of Ramadan, right? We were saying
we're supposed to do the opposite, right? Now this is just to pass
the time until fudge comes in. What is it? Fudge? It comes in
like four right?
You got to tie it around 330 Or I can't stay up anymore. Let me just
take a five minute nap five minute up. You're up at 9:10am You miss
Feds completely. Every day this happens. Okay, I set the alarm for
fetch. You said that you say these words that you're saying to
appease your conscience, right? Reality is that you're sinful for
that you know you're not waking up preferred
Tabish Ahmed says My friend says you can't make up your own Salawat
like denial Carroz why the Salawat is a dua Who Says You Can't salah
the solo ads on the prophet is nothing other than a DUA.
Where's his proof of this prohibition? Bring the evidence
the other day, I think you're shaking. Yeah.
Like, it's a bit odd to ask for like Tofik on your math test. Some
hot a lot of them. It's like asking for like, all that make it
eat make this test easy for me. Yeah, we'll test. That's exactly
that's exactly that mentality that you need every single thing
specific matter spelled out for you. That's the disease of that
simplistic mind. If you look at it in our theater, and in FIP, they
need every single thing specific thing spelled out. No. The Quran
gives you the general principles. And the specifics fall underneath
them.
So as someone says, you negate for Allah what He didn't negate for
himself.
Like having a location. Wait a second, did not Allah give the
general statement? That he is a summit? He has no needs? And a
location is a need. Right? So you're not negating location. So I
say so do you negate purpose for Allah?
Goddess purple? Do you negate it?
He was like stuck, Abba. Wherever
negated.
Unique Why would you negate purple in this and not location? Because
they all because the Quran mentions
the Qibla of DUA and Allah is above the skies right above the
skies. Folk a hookah Haroon, Allah says he's above them in full
control, meaning control, meaning in dominance, they're not out of
his control. That's the meaning of above above them. I'm above you in
authority as my son, right? Doesn't mean I'm physically above
him.
He's actually very happy to be physically above me now. All
right, it's like a passage like in our societies in our community.
It's like a rite of passage of these youth. Right when they
finally get to all of them. But above and this has multiple
meanings. Folk Allah just says it folk home gah he rune.
Okay, we are above them with control and *.
Next subject because the subject it's you know, like go when you
get have an uncle at the table, and he gets triggered by certain
subject Ted seem, is that subject of mine? Right?
Yeah, he's joking without too if you were gonna say something,
physical beauty. Do I offer physical beauty pray to Hajin and
the DA and Nora, Allah majali. Nora, if you're going to be you
know what? I'm feverishly you're gonna fill me that door and you're
right, I will I will start saying that drop by the way, right. We
should say it every day.
And during Hajj, we did
run me before the day we need to get fit yet for this
show. Not that I know of.
Wait, let me just I would have to double check that. Next question.
Is this Whatsapp group only for Safina society students patrons
and subscribers.
The ArcView ones aren't v 123. And four are for the art view students
because they have to ask questions about the classes.
Abby Khan says or Abby K M says
which is also Olga panda on YouTube, on blogging, theology,
talking about Islam and rebellion talks about the modern Neji
opinion. Is there a question there? Yeah.
Was there a question there? The the najis
they will have the original Wahhabis.
They basically had to find a way to render the Ottomans to be not
outside of Islam to justify the rebellion against them. And they
use to us sort of author as that right. And that's how they
justified that
next question
What do you got? Uh, you
know, he did
okay.
My friend asked me if the Quran changed the meaning of the Quran
significantly, and how do we reconcile different meanings of
the Quran?
The Quran at the various alterations of words and deich
miracles in the Quran add different meanings, but they don't
contradict any. They don't contradict themselves. They just
add different meanings to it. So there's layers of meanings. So
when you look at it Tafseer they'll say, Well, this kura
recites it in this manner this Quran recites it in that manner.
And it provides us with multiple meanings without contradiction.
Next
what do you got a
interesting bots. Yeah, because we got bots there that are
Subhanallah them. What did even what did we even say this time?
Right, right. Like we didn't say anything. We didn't talk about any
did we talk about marriage? No. They're talking about Zina. So why
are we getting these bots?
A Nika says is it okay to rescue prey from your pet cats? Yes, it
is okay. If you if you if your pet cat and you feed your pet cat and
your pet cat went out and attacked a rabbit or a mouse you can
protect the mouse
when is a good time to read the roots Mustafa?
I don't know what that dude is. But anytime
it's about the humans Yeah, but which two roots is that which
silhouettes on the prophet is that but anyone anytime it's good.
Always draw is always best last step.
Tamra says can you please answer Moabs question? I answered it
already. Good. Good, good. Dancer. Lavon Brown. All right. Many of
the massages says Lavon brown pray Fajr 30 minutes prior to sunrise.
When the horizon is still red and white? Would you recommend a
person praying it as at early at home? And then with the gym out of
the Masjid? If the masjid is doing the prayer on within the valid
time because Phaedra does not have a roadie time. Then do with the
message.
If you can, always says
why the Hanafi is allowed Jomar Salah to be at 430 It's confused,
causing confusion. I don't know. But the Maliki method allows Gemma
all the way to market.
Many people don't know that. But it's true.
Ryan they're back.
Many people don't know that. But in the Medicaid method Joomla is
not restricted to the overtime Joomla can be preyed into officers
time as long as you have time to pray at least one raka have asked
afterwards. Next question. Can a medic keep Gray? I know they're
different times for Hanafy is pray a different at a different time?
Is it okay for a medic to pray with his honey few friends at that
different time? So lots Okay.
Have you heard of the Hadith with the Prophet? So I've sent him says
if we spend all our extra time sending sort of wet, all our
affairs will be handled. If we're
repeat all the time saying so to wet all our affairs will be
handled? Yes.
But it's within a common sensical context, you have to understand
that, right? The common sensical context of that we are expected to
work we're expected to take so we're expected to do a lot of
those things. Alright, so when the prophets I send them when you have
a hadith like that, right, whoever does a bad or the whole time all
of his affairs will be taken care of. It's within the context of
common sense. Such that nobody's just, oh, I have to pay. I have a
bill right here. I'm not gonna pay, I'm not gonna go do work. I'm
gonna I'm gonna do a bad. That's not exactly the way so we are
expected to have common sense with that. But yes, within the context
of common sense. If you then spend your extra time
focused on salon, the profit, all of your grief and anxiety will go
and risk will come down to you. Extra risk will come to you.
Some people look after cats and ignore helping people is this
okay?
These are the PETA people. PETA, animal rights activists,
killer vegans, and animal rights activists. They're all the same.
To me. They're all they're all one lot of crazies. Yes, next subject
isn't allowed to talk about another Muslims calamity to give
examples of how lack of Deen affects people negatively or
suspect but it is but it is yes. If they were public sinners, if
they were privately committing sins, then no, but if they are
public sinners, then the answer is yes. You may use them as a bad
example. Right for example, like okay, look, he wants to go drink
And he skips Allah, then he does all these things. Alright, look at
the result. Right. And we can you can do that. Yes. Not only can you
should
in the books of al Qaeda even they tell us they warn us Do not you we
do not hide and cover up the for the public center. He's not
ashamed of Allah. He doesn't deserve to be covered up. Okay,
cover it up. It's for the private center.
Yeah, at least has the decency to be ashamed public center. No, he
should be shamed. And he should be made an example of look. All
right, you want to disobey Allah openly like that, and you have,
you don't even have the basic Imen to hide your sins. Right?
Then, when the bad thing happens to you, and your life goes
downward, we're all going to say, okay, look, that's the result.
Okay. And all these people have they got no problem talking about
us, by the way, and say, Oh, you think you're so pious?
They always do this, right? Oh, you think you're better than
everyone else bla bla bla. So they're very okay with talking
about us. But when it comes to the center, the one who's rectifying,
the one who's trying to protect the community is to be blamed for
being judgmental. But then they turn around and pass a judgment on
that guy. Right. So you have to walk so carefully around the
public center. But there's open season on the guy who's rectifying
the Jamar
D got things backwards. Read me the Instagram question. In the
black there.
After a major life event, I've slipped in my consistency with
Feadship Germanna. It's been two years slippery slope. How do I get
back? Can you share any advice? Persistence, stubbornness, right?
stubbornness.
That you got to love the quality of somebody who is like a dog with
a bone, it never let go of that bone. That's the quality of his
it's a personal quality. If you apply it into the deen, then it's
good for you. Next, is someone's sinful or backbiting, if they
describe a Muslim as not practicing,
if there's a reason to talk about the person,
why would you describe him in the first place? Is he proposing to
marry or get a job or something like that? Then or sign up for the
youth group as a as a chaperone? Then you have the right to speak
about what they do in public. Their public record is fair game
for you to talk about. Okay?
Can we make dot Vic or a site put silently or do we need to voice it
out for its account, there is vicar that is in your mind only
silent that in your mind
or in your heart Calvi.
But there's also the could when it needs to be spoken, it should be
with your tongue, your tongue should move. And we know that for
sure. For example, these the recitation of the Quran and the
tech could be rods, and that's me, I loved him and Hamidah and the
salaam must be with your tongue moving in the silent prayer. And
in the loud prayer you should at least hear yourself. But
everything else of dua can be in your mind only.
Outside of that recitation of Quran when we say recitation of
Quran as an act of worship, we mean at the very least your tongue
is moving to speak, vicar Salawat. Your tongue is moving at the very
least.
Let's take one more and then we have to go because we got an
appointment today. So let's do it. One more.
So was using the New York Times girl who was talking about doing
Zina aloud? How would why would she even put out something like
that?
Very good question. And
all I can say is we got a lot of crazies in our OMA these days.
And even read the articles filthy. Right? Just like the synopsis that
I got.
And that's the type of thing that you shouldn't be shamed publicly.
Right. If someone said something about anything politically
incorrect to the left,
don't we aren't like you expect everyone to denounce this person.
And they're so I didn't see your I didn't see your denouncing of him.
I didn't see your
your denouncement of this person. Right.
We expect an open disrespect of Allah and His messenger so Allah
when he was setting them through their law,
you're gonna go and go against that, and open denouncement and
disavow is expected. Just as if a NBC anchor for NBC was caught
making a racist slur
or support it or having a Nazi sympathy. It is expected that ever
Anyone will denounce him. Anyone associated with NBC will have to
make a comment here and there. Oh, I totally denounced this. Okay,
don't do it. So
I'm Why am I saying that? Do we get our law from them? No, we
could care less what they say. But to show you that this is common
sense. If we're a group, and we're bound by the same principles,
right. And then someone from the group comes in opposes those
principles in order to meet and make sure that you're still on the
same wavelength as us. It's fair to expect you to denounce it. It's
a fair expectation. Right. And then
the issue of
that's the issue of, of these public denouncing of a public sin.
So
I don't even remember what the question was, but that's the
answer.
All right. Let's move to the question today. Christian Dan,
Vicki is here from
what's the country Czechoslovakia.
Czech Republic, took us EVOC is like 1990. The Czech Republic you
know, they hate Islam so much upon all of these people. You know that
we were doing stuff with them. Facebook, we got flagged so bad,
because they put so many hate messages. And so our account got
flagged.
