each week when we do this, I want to take out five minutes and go
over and answer one of the questions that were brought that
was brought to us.
From from online, and this question has to do, it's one of
the Safina QA questions. I think this will be question 30. Question
14. And the question is what defines a soldier? Ma? What
exactly is a Henderson? What Jamar? And people ask this
question very? It's a very important question. Because if
we're saying that there are these all these groups, and we know that
hadith is 73 groups, and that there's one correct and saved
group, well, how do we know that that's what we want to be on? Or
how do we know that that's what it is? Or what we're upon is, you
know, that group? And if also, if you notice, whenever someone does
some kind of wrong action? What do people say people always say?
Well, they're taking the verses out of context, right. So we
should ask a question, then then the skeptics, which usually they
don't, but the skeptic should, they should ask a question. And
they should say, Well, if your book is, as you say, any type of
idea you have, you can find a verse for it. Right? Isn't that
what people say? Anything you want? You can find a verse for it.
Well, if that's the case, then how is it a Book of guidance?
How is it clear as it states it's a clear book, right? It says it's
a clear book. So how is it clear if I could pick and choose
whatever I want from it? Okay, the answer to this is very simply that
at a Sonowal Jana
consists of everything.
Every tafsir, explanation, interpretation, understanding of
every verse and Hadith, okay?
That does not contradict another verse on Hadith. That's the key.
All right, every interpretation, every tafsir, every Isambard
ruling derived, okay.
From any verse and Hadith, that does not contradict another
person, Hadith. And of course, doesn't contradict the language.
Okay, contradict language. That's what consists of the body of what
we call a listener will demand anytime, any interpretation or
understanding, or tafsir of a verse and a hadith or ruling
derived from a verse and Hadith that contradicts another verse and
Hadith. That's what we call the heresy. And you have to throw it
out. It's wrong. Okay. That's what we call a heresy that you have to
throw out. Another thing, thank you. And whenever a subject is
brought up, okay? And someone says to you look at this hadith,
and it doesn't sit right with you. And they're saying, Look, this
means that that, okay, what is the right response? Right? the right
response is, show me all of the verses about that subject. Okay,
not just one cherry picked Hadith, or cherry picked verse, no, show
me all of the verses, and all the Hadith about that subject. Then
when you go through all of them, then you'll come out with the
truth. Right? Then you come out with the truth. And the Prophet
said the word and so Noah, Gemma comes from some say that said
Eileen is the one who asked even our best, okay to begin
codifying matters because of the rise of the high wattage. Okay,
the rise of the high wattage group sects. Okay, which brings up
another question, why are there sects in Islam? If Islam is true?
Or why did He Allah protect it? He protected the Quran? Why does he
protect to the theology of Islam and the law of Islam? Well,
because the answer is because we're humans, we're human beings.
We're not light switches that are on and off. We have gradients of
understanding. We have whims. We have how're we have wills, power
that contradicts sometimes the guidance, right? And all of us at
some point or another, there's going to be a piece of guidance,
and our whims will want to do the opposite. So there's a gradient of
guidance and as the province I sent him said, What is this
gradient is 73 Grades one is correct, and the others are wrong.
Now even our bass he took this one
Edison wedgemount Which some people say he was the first person
to utter that phrase, and Allah knows best, but it's not really
critical, but some people attributed to him anambas That
it's from a hadith in which the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa alayhi
wa sallam said
after my death you will see 11 cathedra much difference, a lot of
differences. After my death, you will see a lot of differences.
Okay, a lot of new things.
Okay, so they said well, what do we do with an O Messenger of
Allah? He said stick to my sunnah. And the Sunnah of the right the
guidance levers after me.
Okay, right, we got up and he was after me, which he said cool, if
not Al Khalifa, not Al Khalifa 10 Al Khalifa plural, which means the
province I sell them knew that the Julio quarter that will be
multiple, more than three, three or more. Why is that important?
Because later he said, Okay, 11 and daddy, that's when I said it
can laugh after means 30 years. So if, as is claimed, by Anusha, that
there should have been one Cleaver, highly should have been
the Khalifa will only lived 29 and a half years after the prophets I
said, and then has in six months, he was looking at it.
So if the Khilafah is 30 years, there would have been only two
cadavers if it was supposed to be Ali. And Abu Bakr and Omar had
done wrong. That's a little side note. But the qualifier is plural.
Okay. So take my son, then they asked my sister of Allah, well,
who then will be on your son at that time? So we could be with
them? He said, at the gym,
the majority, the gym Hall? And why is it that it happens to be
that most of the people are on the Sunnah? Well, actually, it's very
simple.
Because the Dean was public, was practicing public in front of
everyone. The Salah was public five times a day, the Prophet was
there for 10 years in public every single day, answering questions
and teaching. Battles happened in front of everyone.
He made what was in front of everyone. Okay. So the Dean was
public. And the transmission of the Dean was as we would call it
today democratized. The prophesy centum said, any one of you who
hears anything from me, pass it on,
pass it on, and don't think that you have to be have a high level
of qualification. It may be that you're passing it on to someone
smarter than yourself, or more attentive and attuned, then
yourself. So the transmission was democratized, there was no limits,
there are no rules that state that you can or cannot transmit a
matter from the Dean. Okay.
And because of this, it went transmission was public, from
public from public and as a result of that, right, as a result of
that, it's very hard to embed or insert a lie into the truth.
Alright, I hope that was a clear explanation. And if you all want
further explanations
of it, any further questions about it? Feel free to send up a
question and at any time
you have questions? There is a brother a runner, he's wearing his
tracksuit because he's going to be running to get your questions.
Okay. Then just bring them up here. Anyone who has a question,
write it down right away, and then inshallah we'll answer them
towards the end.
