All righty Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa Salatu
was Salam ala Rasulillah. While early here we'll be here women
Well welcome everybody to the Safina society nothing but facts
live stream on a Wednesday in which we are between the hours of
the hood and also, let's go straight to the DA and the liquor
that we usually do. And this sticker is not specific to
Wednesdays, it can be done any day. It's usually done. After the
hood it was intended by a man had done to be done after salata
Lahore. And so we'll do this and then we'll stop for two minutes of
dua if you don't know why we do this is because of the hadith of
Jabba bin Abdullah in which the Battle of conduct
was ended through a DUA, and the Prophet made a long dua as the
sahaba. Were becoming exhausted on Monday, and then again on Tuesday,
and he was answered on Wednesday and sitting the job and Abdullah
said, it was between the salah attain what he meant by that
between a vo what also whenever they used to say the two prayers
he meant by that thought on us. Because between McCollum and
Aisha, there's not much activity, right to talk about. So between
the two prayers he meant between Dora and Ossur send a jab at him.
And Abdullah understood then that at this point, if that happens to
the messenger, PSB Vaughn, this will forever be a day of each
other, a time of each other, that the prophet of that Allah does not
descend upon the messenger with descend upon a messenger,
a blessing and then take it away, he keeps it. So between Doha and
acid is a Sati, Java, inshallah sati. Java means there is a time
that we pray and hope that dua will be answered in that time. And
it's not the whole time between the head and us it's like a
window. But if we consistently attempt it one day Allah to Allah
will grant it to us.

Li he was somebody he was.
Today's topic is
sort of a current affair, but it's more of a development in the world
of
mental illness slash identity. And it has a connection to theology.
Because we do have free will, in any trend, any idea that
seeks to negate that and take it away from us seems in the
beginning as a very generous ideology, and a very merciful
ideology and tolerant ideology. But in fact, you're being robbed
of your willpower. And what I'm going to sum up just to summarize
what I'm about to read for you, is that
to be a sociopath was always considered, you know, the one of
the worst things you could call somebody, I mean, someone very
sensitive to himself, but completely insensitive to other
people's pain. Right? And that's why, all right, you want to sit
here if you want to
contribute from an audio, if you ever want to say anything, you can
hop over there.
So to be a sociopath was always considered the worst thing you
could say to somebody like Hitler was a sociopath. Right? Trump has
a soul to all these, like, the worst thing that you could ever
say to someone is that there are a sociopath, right?
But what we see happening here is that it's becoming considered a
genetic
disorder that people identify with, and learn to live with.
Okay, so we moving in our in a world where there's no good and
evil, okay? And slowly willpower is being taken away, and being
replaced with its genetic, right. So this really is the modern day
jabariya And there's no upbringing, like whatever happened
to pure old upbringing, like you, you weed
you know, you weed bad characteristics out of a kid, or
you stifle them those characteristics certain things
should be weeded out or stifled. There's no doubt about that. Not
everything. Like Freud said you know should be out in the open
like just release it or and if you stifle something, you pent up you
it gets pent up know certain things
You could end it really quick and a child and it will never come
back. And you'll be thankful for it. And he'll hate to see it in
another kid. For example, if you have, if a kid is has temper
tantrums, or if a kid breaks down, and at a certain age, it's not
really appropriate for them to just break down when they don't
get what they want. If you literally just tell them to stop,
pull yourself together, guess what happens? They stop and they pull
themselves together. They never do it again. When they then see it in
another kid, they get really upset. Like they hate it. So you
did them a favor. Okay. So here, let's read this article here
about
a woman who says that she identifies as a sociopath, and
that this is basically how she was born.
And that she's asked, she's had the courage they always say that
word, right? It's always that word. The courage to open up about
her being a sociopath.
And other people open up so how do they open up they say, You know
what, I've always wanted to stab this kid, you know, I mean, with a
microsecond
focus
it is right to Yeah, yeah.
Yeah. Okay, so.
She says sociopaths, our modern day boogie men. The word sociopath
is casually tossed around to describe the worst, most amoral
among us, but they are not bogeymen. They are real people.
According to Patrick Gagan, a Ganya widely misunderstood Ganya
from Brunel pronouncing it right. Ro sociopath Patrice Ganya, if it
was, was B from Quebec or something. Patrice Ganya, wrote a
book sociopath, her buzzy forthcoming memoir, to try to
correct some of those misunderstandings and provide a
fuller picture of sociopathy, which is more frequently referred
to as antisocial personality disorder. Okay, now, keep in mind
now, obviously, this disorder now, it's no longer that your parents
didn't raise you. It's a disorder. So we need to sympathize with you
because you want to do all these violent acts against other people.
Now, what did she say? As a child, Gunny found herself compelled
toward violent outbursts in an effort to try to compensate for
the emotional apathy that was her default.
as she got older, those compulsive behaviors turned into criminal
ones, like trespassing and thefts. Eventually, she discovered that
there was a name, the dreaded word that could be used to describe and
explain her experiences of remorse lessness criminality and lack of
empathy. You're telling me there's a gene for this? No, right? I
mean, you're making stuff up at this point. You could have all
this is behavioral, you can change this thing with with teachings
with upbringing. That's why I'm telling you jebadiah We have in
Islam, Djibouti, in our history, a group of people, small, very small
group of people in Baghdad, when when we they're included in every
theology book, you think they're like 1000s and legions? No, it's
like five people who ever put forth the idea that everything is
written destiny.
And you have no choice. Right? It was like three, four philosophers
who are astray who said this, and the automat, shut it down, and
then come and people try to say it every once in a while one out of
100 people will try to justify his bad behavior by saying, you know,
it was just just I was forced into it. So they looked at it
theologically. Here, the only difference, they look at it
genetically.
Show me a gene that
that has this and then we could talk.
So now she started saying eventually, after she discovered
it was a name she desired to de stigmatize got her experience.
destigmatize instead of saying that yeah, I will have bad o'clock
and I have enough's. Now let's destigmatize this, so that we can
openly say that we have these thoughts. She's not saying to do
it, but she's saying it's okay to have these thoughts. Okay, so
Ganya worked as a therapist. She shouldn't work as a therapist. She
needs a therapist, to those with the disorder and has also written
about sociopathy. And this put Ganya on a path led that lead to
sociopath her book. I'm not trying to say sometimes we do bad things,
but we're really sweet on the inside. She's not even saying
that. She's saying we're not we sometimes you do bad things and
we're not sweet on the inside. We're remorseless. Is she saying
this right? I'm saying there is more to this personality type.
When I hear the word sociopath, I think of an antisocial, uncaring
person who is interested in only in satisfying his or her desire.
What is a clear picture? sociopathy is a perilous mental
disorder.
The traits associated with sociopathy aren't great. But
that's that only tells part of the story. The part that's missing is
you can be a sociopath and have a healthy relationship. What really,
please disclose that before we get involved. You can be a sociopath
and be educated. That's a very uncomfortable reality. For some
people. People want to believe that all sociopaths are monsters
then that all monsters are easy to spot.
In the book, you write about stabbing a classmate I guess this
is the question. In the New York Times article here, the bold is
the question in the book you write about stabbing a classmate with a
pencil when you were a kid. And then you as you got older, you
trespassed, and then you saw cars. You don't succumb to those
sociopathic compulsions anymore. How did you learn to control these
urges? All right, I think the guy's talking in some sense,
because it's like you have an urge, you learn to control
yourself, and knifes amount of soup. They have no concept of
this. They want to make the knifes a glorified thing that we
sympathize with and accept everything that it brings. She
says as a kid, I didn't understand why I was acting out that the way
that I was all I knew was I felt pleasure. And something in my
brain was telling me punch that good. Is it your brain or your
knifes? Watch how many words now in our culture can be replaced
between whatever the word they use and the word nefs. That's how we
would understand it. Yeah, you have enough amount of
the neffs that commands to evil. Alright, so she says my brain was
telling me to do this. And I'd feel better as I got older, I
understood, okay, there's a name for this. And there's a whole
group of people who share this diagnosis, how that word diagnosis
is so overused. Once I understood that I wasn't
in space, untethered, and going crazy, I was on the path to
understanding that when I had those feelings of go steal a car,
I could go yes, I go do that. But now I understand what's going on.
That understanding helped break the cycle, or at least redirect
the compulsion towards something less destructive. All right, at
least she's think she's trying to find a way out of it. But her
classification of these whispers, that ideas that get in her head
are not right, the classification is not that you're just born this
way, the classification, you could say,
is just, well, they're not going to leave our classification, which
is there is something called the bliss. And there's something
called the knifes and knifes the ego of the human being has a bad
side to it. And if you feed that bad side, it grows and that
dominates over you.
So he says, What does that redirecting look like in practice?
Every once in a while, I will have an urge to do something
destructive just because I can. And my redirect is, do you want
this destructive behavior? Or do you want to continue to maintain
this life that you have? Which requires that you not do those
things? I have to have that conversation within myself? Okay,
I have to say that's slightly more sensible, right? It's hurt. She's,
this is the atheist version of dealing with my knifes,
essentially. So instead of saying it's enough study saying, this is
something that
you're just you're bored with the instead of putting it as the the,
the construction that Allah told us about? They're just putting it
as genetics. But the problem with it is that, like she wants people
to open up, let's open up about your destructive thoughts, we
actually say that that actually will probably increase them maybe
make it worse.
Right? It makes it normalized.
Now for us, probably, I would say there's a 5050 On one hand, you
don't want to normalize those things. On the other hand, there
is a healing element to when you when you admit you have a problem.
But to whom are you admitting it? And are you making it an identity
now?
publish an article for the whole world to know. Like, we can
understand someone says, Listen, I got a problem. Let me go seek
help. Help from a person who can help me and that person, you could
tell him your problem. But now you don't go and sit make make it an
identity though. Hey, guys, I'm enough. Samata Right. Right. I'm
enough. So Martha, and I need you to understand that and recognize
that. That's how it works. Right? So what's a recent sociopathic
impulse that you had, bro? Only a white woman could get away with
talking like this? Right? What's the recent sociopathic impulse
that you had to a Palestinian men? Right? A black men? That's That's
not a question that's ever going to pass. Right? But a white woman.
All right. And you look at her picture here, like a very petite
looking white woman. Yeah, she could say I stabbed I still. And
she gets a New York Times article written, right? Unbelievable. This
is a very vanilla example. When I go to the grocery store and I come
home if anything that I purchase has gone bad. I'll make a mental
note. I'm stealing this next time. Tell me of a black dude. You know,
said this. What are people gonna say?
He tells me there is not a double standard.
You write about your difficulty with understanding other people's
emotions, feeling apathy and lacking empathy. But you also
write about experiencing love. Why are you innately able to feel love
but not empathy?
Good question. The way I experienced love seems to be very
different from the so called neurotypical experience, normal
people, neurotypical.
She says, my experience of love seems less emotional. If I had to
explain how was Love, less emotion, it's 100% and emotion. If
I had to explain what Love feels like, to me, I would say
symbiotic. So a relationship that's beneficial to both people
involved. Wow, how wonderful of human being this is. Right? She
says it's not transactional, nor possessive nor ego driven. It's
mutual homeostasis. So like, like a virus, right? Or a leech on a
fish. You know, when there's a leech hooks on the fish it the
leech sucks out the bad blood, and eats. So the fish benefits are the
bird that takes the food out of the alligators mouth? Have you all
seen that? So the bird eats, but the alligator gets his teeth
cleaned. That's where we're going here.
It's not that I'm unable to access emotions or empathy. It's that my
experience of those emotions is different.
Such a load of nonsense when you write about becoming a mom, oh,
man, she shouldn't be. Don't be a mom, please don't abuse the kid.
You say that profound feelings of love toward your child were non
intrinsic. And you had to work to experience them. Can you tell me
about about that? Listen, hey, if you have a kid, and you have to
work on loving your kid, and you're the mom, not the debt,
right?
A dad I could see he consents responsibility towards this kid.
Right? Like there's a kid in the world. I gotta make sure he turns
out, right, that dominates over love for the kid. And you know
that love for the kid might actually cause me to sacrifice
this. I can love a kid so much that I let him get away with a lot
of bad habits. And this continues over the span of 1819 years. It's
too late. You got a rotten spoiled kid who can't benefit himself and
everyone hates him. So much. I can see many dads stifle or push aside
or subdue their emotional side for the love of their kid in order to
set him right. Because otherwise he gets away with murder. Okay.
But when you're saying as a mom that
you have, you need to work on loving your kid.
something terribly wrong, right?
As a woman, forget my personality type, you're inundated with all
these images child is born. It's incredible. I did not experience
any of that. I didn't have the immediate baby is born. I'm over
whelmed with love. It was I don't know this person. This person is
very loud. Person. Something is seriously wrong. Why are we
putting these people on a pedestal with a book at a New York Times
article here? Alright. Interview? Are we accepting this? That's
where That's where this is. If honestly, if someone wanted to
destroy the American society, you'd elevate these types of
people give them a New York Times cover. Look at the cheese on the
cover. Right? With a big, you know, picture of her. Why are you
putting the stuff out there like she what she has to say is
important this person is ill. The only thing that you said right was
that she has an illness. Now stop talking, get treated. Let them
instead of you talking about your own illness and philosophizing
about it. Why don't you actually have real psychiatrists who
actually know something to treat you? Problem is all those
psychiatrists are ill to.
Now she says, It was like, I don't know this person. They're very
loud. That connection just isn't there. It's not innate. But over
time, you can build it much like when I first met David, I knew
right away that this person was going to be important in my life,
but I didn't have those sweeping, romantic flowery emotions
affiliated with that experience. Same thing when I met my son
met my son, what are you talking about met? You don't meet a baby
that was in your stomach.
All right. Are you able to describe how you've built a sense
of morality? You know, if I'm the interviewer, when she answers like
that, I pack up the interview and I leave, I might get killed. The
end of this. She he the interviewer says, are you able to
describe how you built a sense of morality? She says just because I
don't care about someone else's pain, so to speak, doesn't mean I
want to cause more of it. I enjoy living in the society understand
that there are rules? Is she playing games with us? Is she
playing the role? No one can actually be like this, right? If
you are you shouldn't be talking you should probably be getting
treated at some center. Or you need to find religion or something
that's a treat you go live on a farm with animals. Maybe you
absorb some nature, right and after 10
yours will be better. I choose to follow the rules because I
understand that it benefits the world. This house where I get to
live this relationship I get to have that is different from people
who follow the rules because they have to they should they want to
be a good person, none of those apply to me.
I want to live in a world where things function properly. If I
create messes, my life will become messy. I think people are
uncomfortable with the idea of you don't really care. Okay, they're
not comfortable with that. I don't care. What does it matter? What
does it matter why I choose to help the woman across the street?
Why does it matter? Why choose to pick up a wallet? I think she's
playing dumb. And she's, she's playing everybody with these
ideas. It's not because I'm a good person. It's not because I would
feel shame or guilt. But what does it matter? This person, you know,
what they really should do is they should be in the Hall of Fame
alongside Frederick NEach. Right? The Neolithic Hall of Fame is
where they belong, nothing has any meaning.
What advice do you have for neurotypical people, normal people
about how best to interact with someone who identifies as a
sociopath, sociopath, see, I don't get this. If it's a sickness, why
are you identifying with it? Like, for example, when you get the flu,
you don't say, Hey,
I'm not going to shake your hand today, because I identify as
having the flu. Right? I'm going to stay away from you today.
Because I identify as having COVID. Right? You just say I got
COVID I'm sorry. Right?
Sometimes, people when they get old, they start forgetting things.
And they tell people don't mind me, I'm getting old, I'm starting
to forget things. Right? Little bit of dementia setting it. And
they'll say it when it's like 10%. Because they don't they know now
that they may offend people if they don't remember their name or
whatever. Okay. I remember a person asking me if I knew my
wife, right? Like, you know, her. And I'm like, you know, for 20
years we've been married, right?
So it was such a weird moment that that point, and he caught himself.
So sometimes people catch themselves even with mental
sicknesses.
The onset of it is not taken over yet. So they recognize it. But
nobody goes around saying, Hey, I identify as having as being an
AIDS patient, I identify as a
Alzheimer patient, you just have it.
You identify with something that is purely a choice, right? You
identify as a Republican, as a Democrat, as a Christian, as a
Muslim, you identify that you don't identify as being Italian,
right? You are Italian, whether you like it or not, you're
Italian. Nobody identifies with these types of things, when
they're born into you.
Ryan, do you identify with being Irish being Italian?
I mean, you you just are that right?
Yeah, I don't identify as having black hair, you just have it. So,
what you choose is what you identify. So this is where words
now start have no meaning and if words have no meaning, and words
and meanings are what produce like laws and society. So now it says,
I have I have been identifying as a
as a sociopath. She says, For years now, what did she have a
flag to? There's there are now going to be a flag that we all
have to support and my experience with people who don't know that,
that has been positive. I have yet to encounter anybody who went to
school when I disclose my diagnosis, ex afraid or upset?
Yeah, because if they act differently, they make a step. I
think inherently neurotypicals are fascinated by sociopathy. Because
it's a relatable disorder. No, it's not Sr, it is not relatable
at all. And no one has a baby and then says,
you know, nice to meet you. I don't know you, let's get to know
each other. Everybody has darkness in them. Everybody has those
thoughts that they shoo away because of guilt. If more
conversations between neurotypical and so called neuro divergence
were to occur, it would benefit both. It would benefit the
sociopathic person because the acceptance lets 80% of the air out
of the balloon.
But it would help the neurotypical is like, oh, I can share things
with this person. And maybe I couldn't share with other people.
Oh, so now we benefit from the sociopaths. No, I get what she's
saying. Now we're the ones who have the honor to be able to talk
to sociopaths.
What a flipped world's honestly. Alright, I get more secrets from
strangers after telling them my diagnosis. You want to believe
things people have told me because they feel safe? Yeah, because if
you talk no one believes you. That's why you're nuts. So I'm
sorry to say this so they can tell you stuff because if you spill the
beans, right? If you spill the beans no one's gonna know. Oh,
she's crazy.
What secrets do they tell you? Oh man. I was sitting across from man
at a dinner party. This was like two years ago. My diagnosis came
up after 30 seconds. He said You know, I have thoughts of killing
my wife a lot.
What
What Is The New York Times publishing here? Are you serious?
Not to normalize that, but I was like, Tell me about that.
And he goes, I've really thought about it, I've reached out to
people about hiring somebody to killer.
Tell me, anybody accepts this character of a person could write
this article and say this stuff without the whole society, you
know, jumping on on them, and calling them some kind of a
criminal.
So people just assume that your sympathetic audience, right, she
says, Yeah, because these are things you're not supposed to
think about. So to be able to talk to somebody, you don't have to
worry that I'm going to start clutching my pearls. You were a
practicing therapist, and we think therapists as highly empathetic,
invested in the emotions and stories of their clients. So how
did you relate to your clients? I didn't relate to them. She says,
No, that is not to say I didn't care about my patients. The easy
answer is of course I care about you. Alright. Well, I thought she
says she doesn't feel emotions. I wouldn't continue to see you if I
didn't. But why do you need that reassurance from me? My job is to
help understand what's going on with with you. My job is to help
you meet, take your emotions, separate them out, explore your
motivations. That's my job. I think upon reading this, the judge
should take your kid away, does not fit
my gifts to my therapy patients was that I was able to lend them
sociopathy.
Why do you care? What does it matter? What do you need from
that?
I helped them achieve things maybe that non sociopathic therapists
couldn't have afford offered. So again, that the sociopath now is
someone that we have to be honored to be in their presence. Maybe
they should be great there. There'll be great therapists too.
But really normal people. Okay, they're just boring laymen unable
to achieve anything, essentially, is what their attitude is. This is
just an arrogant person who really needs help, and should not be on a
pedestal talking, having therapy or having kids. In the book, you
describe things like mirroring people back to themselves, or your
conscious and intentional manipulation in the moment. Is
that happening? Listen, everyone has a front facing persona. Most
people use that persona as a preference, a desire to be liked a
fear of judgment, wanting somebody to be friends with them, but
sociopaths use it out of necessity. And that's a really
important distinction. What does she mean sociopaths use it as a
necessity did she go and pull people who also quote unquote,
identify as sociopaths.
She's full of it, to be honest with you. And that she's just
created herself a new distinction, a new group, a new little badge to
have a flag, though you'll be allies soon, right?
And that's a really important distinction. My decision to mask
is not because I have some dark ulterior motive. It's because you
guys are interesting to me. So now the normal person is a subject of
investigation. neurotypical emotions are so colorful and
complex in order for me to engage with you. You have to feel
comfortable with me.
Lady, nobody wants to engage with you. In order for you to feel
comfortable with me, I have to mask I find that people are
unnerved by me when I'm not masking, because otherwise I'm
quiet. I ask invasive questions. I stare my effect is low. The bottom
line is that I want you to feel comfortable.
I'm not reading the rest of this.
I have a question. Yeah, maybe maybe transition or something.
Yeah, but
it's the on the border of that. Like because this this neffs has
like many different it's like a super.
There's so many sides to a prison. Yeah. And if you stop one way from
the nest, the other way starts to get you.
In the second chapter, who can hold back my headstrong soul from
its error of its ways, just as wild horses are restrained with
bridles and rains do not aim to break the desires by plunging
further into sin. The gluttons greed is only increased by the
sight of food. The self is like an infant if you neglect its proper
care, it will grow up still loving to suckle. But once you wean it,
it will be weaned, so dismiss its passions beware of over beware of
letting them take over for when passion gets the upper hand it
will either kill or bring this honor, keeping a watchful eye on
it as a grazes in the field of actions. And if it finds the
pasture to delightful, do not let it grazed unchecked. How often a
pleasure that is, in fact, deadly has seemed good. The one who does
not know there may be poisoned in the fat. Beware of the snares of
hunger and safety for an empty stomach maybe worse than over
eating. And then there's like, dry the tears from eyes that have had
their filler forbidden things and henceforth, let your only diet big
regret. And then it keeps going. But it's like even he mentioned in
this balance. Yeah, it's like don't feed the soul. But then also
don't deprive it. Yeah. You can't go to accesses on either side, or
else you're gonna flip. If something bad's gonna happen to
you.
Yeah, definition of
So, sociopathy says it's an antisocial personality disorder.
Yeah. So a mental health disorder characterized by a disregard for
other people, those with antisocial personality disorder,
ASPD, may begin to show symptoms in childhood, but the condition
can be diagnosed until adolescence or adulthood. There's 200,000
cases in the US. I think a lot of this stuff also came out of COVID.
Right? Yeah. Because people were by themselves. They didn't know
what to do with themselves. But why do they have to make these
things disorders? Why aren't they simply behaviors? That simple,
basic upbringing of your brother, your sister, your dad, your mom,
your aunt, your uncle? convicts. It's like, that's how the rest of
the world used to operate. Right? And still operate still today.
This is upbringing was the erosion of the family. Yeah, yeah. Once
you take that stuff away, there's no one to do the upbringing
anymore. So having grandparents around how much Baraka Do you
have? Yeah, having grandparents are like siblings, aunts, and
uncles, there's also tons of proof that your wiring in your brain is
altered by your behavior, right? So your behavior can alter wiring
in the brain, you can then come and do a brain scan of the person
says, Oh, the wiring is there. That's why the behavior notes
opposite way around, right? Your behavior starts and kicks off the
wiring of your brain.
Here is if we inserted
Okay, take wandering mind, we'll take your questions. As soon as we
get to q&a. I want to read some see what are some of the comments?
Or do you guys want to read the rest of the article? Or have you
had enough of this person that can keep the song above these types of
people for long? How can you give moral and financial support to
people
who are starving?
Like the kids in Gaza?
Unless you're a sociopath, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, let me read these comments real quick. But you can load them
up. Yeah. Oh, yeah. We need to get that 90,000 You reminded me. Thank
you. We have to hit 90,000. No other
numbers acceptable. Right.
Here, Joyce Hill says a very good question. I wish the interviewer
had explored Ganya his relationship with her parents. How
did they deal with raising her? Right? Did she have siblings? How
were those relationships? Thank you. That's common sense. Right
there. The How was this person raised? Right? What were your
parents like?
Alright.
The interviewer mentioned you are practicing therapists in the past
tense really curious to know why she isn't practicing now. Okay,
maybe something happens. She reminds me a therapist I had a
long time ago, colder and more impassive, the longer she saw me
as if comfortable unmasking her true self or maybe she became lazy
about pretending to care. She wants to ask me matter of factly.
Couldn't you just break up with your father? like you would a
boyfriend. Needless to say that was the last session. Okay. It's
good to see common sensical people here in the comments section. It's
a bit refreshing. I don't know what the New York Times is even
doing publishing this garbage. There's people in everyday life
who are like this, not just in high position. Do you recognize
them so you can protect yourself?
We have a lady like that in our Pickleball group she lies she
cheats. She's mean for no reason. All right, she enjoys winning
points.
Even though we're playing for fun, when people first play with her,
they're upset by her rudeness, then they get wise and they ignore
her. Okay, best avoid these types of people, just like this author.
Alright, so
common sensical people, I worked for several years with an
extremely bright individual demonstrated traits of sociopath
of a sociopath that brought so much stress to our lives. Even
after this person left the practice. It affected me so much
that I literally suffered feelings of post traumatic stress and
anxiety that required therapy just being around such a person. Okay,
so there you have it.
To load let's just do a random comment. All right, here's Steve
from California. It's simple, to glorify, support and spread
sociopathic behavior is wrong. Lack of conscience, empathy, and
sympathy doesn't make one admirable or admirable, or even
interesting, except as a scientific research project aimed
at preventing it in the future. That's the best comment right
here. Let's let's hit right. Let's recommend that comment there.
Boom. Okay. Oh, I have to log in to do that. No, thank you.
But do you see, that's not what we just said? Like, why are we
glorifying this dispersed someone who's ill? And then she's one of
these like, megalomaniac types where she puts it that you're,
you're you all honored. Right? You could learn something from me.
People always want to learn something. Tell me their secrets.
Right? And I find you people so interesting. This person is a
egomaniac to
me
Curious how she was diagnosed unless I missed it. The
interviewer doesn't touch on that at all. Did she self diagnosis?
That's a good question, right? Did she self diagnose? I'm telling
you, she's playing games. She's self diagnosed to create a nice
new diagnosis for myself, right? And it's a diagnosis today's like
Gucci.
It's like cardio. It's like a designer's thing to have a
diagnosis. But also it's like a fashionable thing. It's a paycheck
for it's a paycheck. Thank you very much. Companies will smile
when when this was first read to me. The what I said is what
where's the end thing? where's this going? Some pills? Right.
Let's see who's bought. What do you have their
hat? Hat?
What do you got here? KitKat. Who wants to KitKat Cheetos jalapeno.
Oh, here we go with this generation and the flaming hot.
Give me the regular flavored stuff. Everything has to be
flaming out with you guys. Cheetos. Flaming hot. Get it out
of here. Okay, Cheetos again. Jalapeno. Get it out of here. All
right. Why is it with this generation? Everything has to be
flaming hot.
Everything is flaming hot. Just give us the regular stuff as its
flavored. Alright, give me back the kid get here. Brian. Do you
take that, Ollie?
I mean,
where'd you get this weather? Where'd you get all this stuff?
Are you got flaming hot?
Is it because we're in Edison? We're in Central Jersey. And
there's a lot of Indians that everything has to be flaming hot.
Or is it the whole just the whole country is now like this? I tried
to get regular flavored stuff. I can't anymore. Everything has to
be spicy. This and flaming hot. Eat up, gentlemen.
Good. Oh, yes. Good old KitKats. So as you guys
know, the protocol, part of the GRT I'm known for,
you know,
supporting people.
Let's just see the update. You guys already know the drill. So
89.3 89.3
So, come on, we gotta get to that 90k We have to get to that 90k
That's a 90k. And you guys gotta run those numbers up. For good
cause Yep. You know, you always have to you guys with pictures?
unfortunately don't have anything for today. And the updates. Video
wise, we'll get to 90k Susan says I'm confused as to the difference
between a selfish person pursuing only their interests and the
sociopath. What is the difference? Is a narcissistic and selfish
person necessarily a sociopath? Or is the key lack of empathy. So
another common sensical person
talking Diane from Portland, Oregon, child psychiatrists here.
This is a very worrisome article to me who exactly diagnosed
Patrice Ganya. I'm telling you, she diagnosed herself with a
designer sickness. Okay, and now she's doing a media tour with it.
And behind her, we're gonna find out the pharmaceutical companies
are there, right? You pop pills, and the pharmaceutical companies
are going to be alright, in bed with all these identities. Make it
an identity, make it cool, make it hip, pop pills get a prescription.
Is that not where most of these things are? The trends thing who
who's the biggest person to push the trends think the
pharmaceutical companies right? The insurance companies are paying
tons of money for this now, right? So make it cool. Make it hip.
Alright, make kids want to say it make it a hashtag on Tik Tok.
Okay. She says now. Alright. Who exactly diagnosed Patrice Gunny
with having a very serious mental health illness and antisocial
personality disorder? Was that assessment comprehensive? And did
it also include reviewing symptoms of perhaps autism? Right, which
also features reliance on logic over emotion? And like, oh, did
she receive mental health? What kind? Where did she receive her
PhD? How are you all that? And getting a PhD? I feel there is
much more to this story than what was told Thank you common sense
here. I would not myself want to receive mental health treatment
from a self identified sociopath nor encourage anyone else to I
wonder too, if being a sociopath and following ethical guidelines
from her earned
a PhD from her own PhD, assuming she is certified, might be in
conflict. She got a PhD on the subject and claims to be that too.
Okay.
All right. There's something else we have to read here. We're moving
on to Israel.
Anyone who wants to say something
about is about this before we wrap up?
New York Times today.
Can you put the
cover for this because it's a really good cover?
Yeah. The article is called Israel is losing its greatest asset.
Acceptance. the affairs of the OMA today have done affairs Oh my in
ages.
And at one point it was like every day was ISRAEL PALESTINE. I've
spent the past few days traveling from New Delhi to Dubai, and a man
and I have an urgent message to President Biden and the Israeli
people. I'm seeing the increasingly rapid erosion of
Israel standing among friendly nations.
Yeah, and put that where it says losing its acceptance, but the
whole Yeah, sure, the whole internet, web, whatever.
Alright.
A level of acceptance and legitimacy that was painstakingly
built up over decades. And if Biden is not careful, America's
global standing will plummet right along with Israel's I don't think
Israelis or the Biden administration fully appreciate
the rage that is bubbling up around the world, fueled by social
media and TV footage, we just saw Alan Bushnell His name is right.
Allen bush. No, we're gonna read about him his biography. He lit
himself on fire as a pro Palestine
you know, what some would call it protest?
Right. I don't think Israelis are there fully appreciate the the
rage that is bubbling around the world. So many 1000s of
Palestinian civilians, particularly children with us,
supplied weapons have been killed. Hamas has much to answer for in
triggering this human tragedy. But Israel in the US are seen as
driving events now and getting most of the blame.
That such anger is boiling over in the Arab world is obvious. But I
heard it over and over again, in conversations in India, during the
past week from friends, business leaders, and official, journalist,
youth, elderly.
That is even more telling, because the Hindu dominant government of
Modi is the only major power in the global south that has
supported Israel through and through and consistently blamed
Hamas. For by the way, what Hamas did is actually lawful, according
to the UN, if you're an apartheid, you're allowed to fight back. So
according to the UN, I'm not saying I'm not making a judgment,
because you know, that can get you in trouble in United States if you
support us. So we're not doing that. But I'm telling you,
according to the UN, if you are a country or people who are
countries who are being treated the way the Palestinians are in
the Gaza, it is lawful for you to fight back, you can look that up.
Okay. Actually, you know, what is eight Why don't you look that up
Mira college student, you know how to do research, right? Apartheid,
un laws, apartheid is allowed to fight back, look it up.
Okay.
They're angry in India, at the death of 30,000 people
in India, their country where the their government is totally pro
Israel, that many civilian deaths that many civilian deaths in such
a relatively short war would be problematic in any context. But
when so many of them are civilians, got launched by
invasion launched by Israeli government without any political
horizon for the morning after and then, when the Israeli Prime
Minister Netanyahu finally offers a morning after plan that
essentially says to the world that Israel now intends to occupy Gaza.
It's no surprise that Israel's friends will edge away and the
Biden team will start to look hapless.
Shikata Gupta, the veteran editor of the Indian newspaper, the
prince put it to me. There is enormous love and admiration for
Israel in India, but a war with no endless strain that initial shock
and awe apart. Netanyahu is war is damaging Israel's greatest asset
greatest asset, the widely held belief in the invincibility of its
army, the infallibility of its intelligence service and the
Justice justness of its mission. Each day brings new calls from
Israel to be banned from international academic, artistic,
athletic competitions. That is, so much of it is hypocritical in
singling out Israel for censure while ignoring the excesses of
Iran, Russia, Syria and China. Not to mention Hamas is true. Well,
there is no such thing as a Hamas academic, you know,
representation.
But anyway, but this Israeli government is doing things that
make it too easy. Many of Israel's friends are now just praying
aim for ceasefire. Now, here's the thing.
It's one thing to be at war, like Russia and Ukraine. But when
Russia was beating up on Ukraine, you didn't see pictures every
single day of a kid with no hands. A girl with her face half burned
off. But you see, three, four a day. When it comes to Israel, I
think that's the big difference. This is not a normal war.
Countries are at war all the time. This is not normal. Their behavior
is not normal here. So they're praying for a ceasefire, so they
don't have to be asked by their citizens or voters and especially
the youth, how they can be so indifferent to the mounting
civilian casualties and has, in particular many Arab leaders who
privately want to see how much destroyed to understand what a
warped and destructive force it is, are being pressured from the
streets to the elites to publicly distanced themselves from Israel.
Netanyahu put it in the morning after plan he issued last Friday,
Israel keep we'll keep security control over Gaza. The territory
will be demilitarized the strips I mean, it's dehumanized. Now. I
mean, you blow the bits out of everybody. The strips southern
border with Egypt will be sealed. Okay. Civil Administration and day
to day policing will be based on local elements
with administrative management experience, who will pay for all
this? Where would the Palestinians go? I have real sympathy for the
strategic dilemma that Israel faced on October 7, a surprise
attack on Hamas that was designed to make Israel crazy by murdering
parents in front of their children, children in front of
their parents allegedly sexually abusing and mutilating women
allegedly. And we know how there's no proof of this set. There's
there's always like, a claim that we saw the pictures type show us
the pictures, kidnapping infants and grandparents. It felt for me,
at least the world was readily ready initially to accept that
there were going to be significant civilian casualties, if Israel is
going to root out a mess and recover its hostages, because
Hamas had embedded itself in tunnels under homes and hospitals
and mosques and schools, etc.
Okay, but now we have a toxic combination of 1000s of civilian
casualties. And the peace plan that promises endless occupation,
no matter if the Palestinian Authority of the West Bank
transform itself into a legitimate governing body
to be a partner, that doesn't make a difference he sighs So the whole
Israel Gaza operation is starting to look more and more like a human
meat grinder, whose only goal is to reduce the population so that
Israel can quote control it more easily. So there you go, you had
it. Any Arab will be telling you this, you know,
months ago that that was the goal, to just kill, kill all these
people. So you can take over? Like you're just saying now that it
looks like that. Wake up. People have been saying this for months
now. Netanyahu refuses to even consider trying to nurture a new
relationship with non Hamas Palestinians.
These people are messed up. It has nothing. You could talk about
Hamas all you want. People don't see Hamas. They just see
Palestinians and the Palestinian people there. It's not like Hamas
and non Hamas. So as if the non Hamas people will now like, have
any different views than Hamas. They hate they hate you equally.
Right. You can eliminate Hamas, you're not eliminating the
feelings that these kids have, that their lives have been
destroyed. Netanyahu refuses to even consider trying to nurture
these relationships. It would risk his chair as prime minister, which
depends on backing from the hard right Jewish supremacist parties
who will never see an inch of the West Bank, hard to believe
Netanyahu is ready to sacrifice Israel's hard won international
legitimacy for personal political needs. And he will not hesitate to
take Biden down with him. Keep in mind that the moment he's out of
power, he goes straight to Joe Netanyahu because of issues he has
with with the law. They're in Israel. So he's got to stay in
power too. But the broader point is that unique opportunity to
permanently diminish him as not only as an army but also as a
political movement is being squandered because he refuses to
encourage any prospects however, long term of building toward a two
state solution so naive, like no one cares about Hamas.
The Palestinians will not be like, Oh, you're only anti Hamas? No,
they don't view it like that. You are anti Palestinian, you're
trying to kill Palestinians. You're not trying to go Hamas,
maybe in political circles. Hamas is like the key word. But other
than that, you're not changing the feelings of people by saying no,
no, we only are against Hamas. We're can deal with anybody else.
Alright, um, that's pretty much the end of the article.
Let's see what the comments say 1907 comments, genocide of
civilians happening in front of our eyes, and the so called
civilized Western society is watching it helplessly. This is
Peter from LA Los Angeles. guy bought into ministration on the
one hand, saying that
innocents are being killed and on the other hand
saying innocence or
other hand supplying all the bombs to kill it's pure evil and
hypocrisy All right, let's go to random
comments here. Harriet from New York. It's so true The world is
watching in horror people here too are fed up. Okay, who wants we're
sympathetic to Israel. It's not just the left protesting people in
general are shocked by this behavior. It's going to be like
Vietnam for Biden Netanyahu talks about protected about a protracted
war. Okay, on many fronts, nobody wants this except Israel. Alright,
random common. Here's Patrick from Dallas, great article things with
right wing solutions is that they convince us that it's possible to
delegitimize the opponent so Israel right wingers, led by Bibi
have convinced the majority of Israelis that it's possible to
warehouse Palestinians indefinitely subjugate them
dehumanize them, this guy's from Texas saying this. They killed
Palestinians indiscriminately, because they want to punish them.
They've reduced the population already by 5%. But they've
destroyed homes. 80%. Okay. This is not a recipe for progress. This
is genocide. All right, let's take another scroll down and take a
random comment. The random comment gives you an idea of what people
are thinking, how they're reacting. Okay.
Meghan from Texas. Even my own very Christian mother is torn
about voting for Biden again, after witnessing this genocide.
We're seeing images of dead children. Almost all the hospitals
are destroyed. This is not just a reaction. Schools are bombed kids
are dead teachers are dead. We heard the voice of a seven year
old Hindi as she slowly died after all right? Also shot ambulance
drivers were shot by snipers following their agreement that
they could go save Hindi. There has been a lot of brutality. Okay,
so
Alright, here's Catherine from Houston, Texas. I'm interested to
see what the southerners have to say. Because, you know, they tend
to be part of these mega churches, which are very pro Israel Zionist
negotiations and warfare will stall and drag out endlessly, and
1000 more Israelis will die. Okay, unless our military support for
Israel's genocide ceases unless the US military's stopped enabling
this the genocide will continue.
All right.
Let's go to Nevada. Propaganda is effective even Friedman is falling
for it. Israel has no choice but to dismantle Hamas, to the
greatest extent possible by eliminating Hamas military
infrastructure until that is accomplished talking about
Palestinian state is just smoke.
Okay, so.
Alright, that's enough. Reading. What else we got? On what anything
else? Are we going straight to the discussion in the q&a right now?
Ryan, what do you have to say?
Omar, what do you have to say?
Huh? Oh, yes. Get his biography up. How did you get us our answer?
Huh?
No law saying you can fight back there's just
nothing like a friend
will have to look for that.
But the family had like private information on what the US was
doing in Israel. So he had like some of the secrets with their
involvement. According to one of his friends, did he really say
that? You know, that guy on Twitter. Like he's post all this
stuff. Like he's like the main one of the main things he posted
something about it. Yesterday, we commented briefly
about Aaron Bushnell and how he
is protests
slash suicide.
Or if he attempted maybe I don't know if he attempted or he knew
that this was going to end in death, or wanted it to end in
death. We all that he said was that he's going to light himself
on fire.
And
ya know, I guess you assume that you're gonna end up dead when that
happens, but we can't say that for sure that he knew that maybe he
thought he would get the attention and people will.
You know, hose him down.
So let's read this. Omar is telling us here that the New York
Post reports New York Posts you know is not exactly the best but
let's see what they say here. That he told a friend of his that he
had secret information.
of US troops fighting in tunnels under Gaza, just hours before
setting himself on fire, stressing that he would no longer be
complicit in genocide.
On Sunday afternoon, he did this. And then Monday morning we all saw
the news. He then stood before the embassy gates, the Israeli embassy
and he said free Palestine in a horrific protest against the
Israel Hamas war. Bush no is only 25 years old. US Air Force
stationed at the Lackland base in San Antonio. He's originally from
Massachusetts, Whitman mass, he joined the Air Force as an active
duty member
and since
and has since worked in information in it and development.
He was trying to get out of it into software engineering.
Bushnell grew up in a religious group on Cape Cod called the
community of Jesus, whose former members have come forward alleging
abuse and a rigid social structure. According to a family
friend and the former Community of Jesus member. He was raised in a
religious compound and in Orleans associated with the group, the
friend told that's Orleans by itself, not New Orleans, a friend
told the post that young people in the community of Jesus often
joined the military, moving from one high control group to another
high control group. Friends who spoke with the post. Say that
while Bushnell was stationed in San Antonio, he was attending
events for a socialist organization and delivered food to
people on the street. Friends say state that his contract with the
military was expired in May. And he was looking for a career
transition.
On Sunday, hours before he went
to the Israeli embassy, Bushnell texted a friend who shared this
the message with the posts so this is the second article, so the
Twitter piece and then this is citing the New York Post. So
apparently, some friend of his contacted the New York Post, and
for the first time in history, perhaps the New York Posts finds
itself on the cutting edge of journalism having a story before
anybody else does. Because if you don't know about the New York Post
here, it's basically just a tablet. They just take the
information from wherever source and make
exciting article about it. Okay, so the message says, I hope you'll
understand I love you Bushnell wrote this doesn't even make
sense, but I feel like I'm going to miss you. weeks earlier,
Bushnell talked on the phone with the same friend about their shared
identities as anarchists, and what kinds of risks and sacrifice were
needed to be effective.
A friend I mean, we're not going to stand by that. But his pro
Palestine was aligned with us. A friend who spoke to the New York
Post states that Bushnell spoke to him on the phone
and said he had top security clearance and that he was
distressed by what was happening and because he told me on Saturday
that we have troops in those tunnels
that it's US soldiers participating in the killings, the
front set, there's too many things I don't know. But I can tell you
that the tone of his voice just had something in it. That told me
he was scared.
While the US has special ops Special Ops in Israel, to
reportedly identify American hostages, the Biden administration
has stated that there will be no American soldiers and has all
right the seal self immolation at the embassy hours before lighting
himself on fire, Bushnell posted a Twitch link on his Facebook with
the caption, many of us like to ask ourselves, what would I do if
I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South or apartheid? What
would I do if if my country was committing genocide? The answer is
you're doing it right now
is a
good way to introspect about those things shortly before 1pm On
Sunday, Bush now begin his live stream and walk toward the Israeli
embassy with an insulated water bottle full of flammable fluid. I
will no longer be complicit in genocide. He said in his video,
I'm about to engage in an extreme act of protest but compared to
what people have been experiencing in Palestine, at the hands of
their colonizers is not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class
has decided will be normal, pushing all that in place his
phone on the ground and walk to the gates of the embassy, where he
doused himself in liquid from the bottle Free Palestine he said as
he struggled to light himself
because if you see the thing didn't work the first few times
because he was holding upside down I guess or I don't know what are
right side up didn't work. A law enforcement officer approached
asking Can I help you sir? At this point, Bushnell lit himself on
fire and screamed Free Palestine. As Bushnell screams in pain a law
enforcement officer off camera yells at him
Get on the ground a second. Yells I don't need guns I need fire
extinguisher. Did you see that idiot with the gun? Israeli
embassy Didn't I tell you the other day, they stab and kill and
claim to be the victim. Here a guy is burning on the ground and
you're worried about him and you got your your gun pointed to him.
That guy is one of the dumbest people I've ever seen. Okay, I
don't need guns, another yelled at him I need fire extinguishers.
The aftermath up motion of Bush knows that an incident report
filed by secret service agent states that they received a
distress call regarding an individual exhibiting signs of
mental distress outside the Israeli embassy. Before the Secret
Service, there's another failure from the Israeli Secret Service
here, right.
Before the Secret Service officers could engage Bushnell doused
himself with an unidentified liquid and set himself on fire. I
think we all know what the identified identified liquid was
right.
The Secret Service Officers probably intervened extinguishing
the flames before the arrival of the fire department. He was
subsequently transported to a local hospital but due to burn
sustained from the incident, which was pronounced dead at 10:06pm on
Sunday, so he actually lived for 10 hours. He lived for nine hours
after that. So it was one o'clock to 10 o'clock this nine hours. In
hours before his death. He emailed several left leaning websites,
alerting them to his highly disturbing final act. Today I'm
planning to engage in an extreme act of protest
against the genocide of the Palestinian people. He read the
email which was forwarded to the BBC Bushnell's video was taken
down by Twitch for violating Terms of Service. Though edited versions
blurring out his burning fire are circulating on social media. The
Secret Service so the Secret Service, I'm assuming it's not the
Israeli Secret Service. It's the American secret service that
protects these embassies and the Bureau Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco
and Firearms are investigating the incident. Along with the
Metropolitan Police of Washington, DC prior to his death, he emailed
several left leaning websites that he was planning to engage in an
extreme act right to protest against the genocide in Palestine.
His act was not the first self immolation and apparent protest of
Israel Hamas war in December, a woman lit herself on fire in front
of the Israeli constantly in Atlanta.
We didn't hear about that. And what police described as an act of
extreme political protest over the war, but she survived. Sustaining
third degree burns over her entire body
was hospitalized in critical condition. Her identity has not
been released by police a 61 year old veteran army
Army veteran sorry, who worked as security as a security guard at
the consulate suffered severe burns when he attempted to save
the woman.
Okay, since the Vietnam War, self immolation has been a dramatic but
rare act of protest
in the US
I wonder if they're going to be copycats
What do you think
think people are going to copycat this
Yeah,
protests
back in the day. Yeah, he was probably the first one to do it
all right, let's go to the q&a now.
Hey, IG
All right, you could
give us our ocean retina. Give Dr. Harris some love
pro West reminds us that the Arab Spring started with the same type
of act in Tunisia
there is an uncensored version of a video mas W says but I wouldn't
recommend watching it he says
I saw shocking comments on Bush now from apparent Muslims do offer
his mother Mo Farah calling him a martyr unreal. I mean, some of the
left wing socialist agenda crosses paths with the Muslim political
positions. Israel being the number one point because of
their anti colonialist stance, right. They're against
colonization, and they view this as colonization. So you do find a
lot of the socialist left wing types are fully in support of
Palestine. And they're there at all the marches and everything.
So obviously, our foundations are totally different.
A mixer says now open QA, any subject anything goes Instagram,
YouTube.
Good
KitKat is Nestle and Nestle supports Israel so respectfully
stop eating the KitKats.
That's about these KitKats. Good. So sure they didn't know.
I'm surprised how Indian the Indian media
as a much more critical of Israel than the Arab media, even
Hindustan Times and The weon are critical.
Escaped dunya. Respectfully, what is your biggest objection with
Sophia? It's not a our objection. It's where this the men hedge
parts with, let's say, the other minor hedge, which is basically in
considering we have a selfie right here. How do we have issues with
selfies? We got one, right, I got one.
Ali says he's not quite but he's lived amongst them. He knows the
ins and outs. But the point is that it's one thing to have an
opinion on a matter of dispute. It's another thing to say this is
the only opinion and none of these other opinions matter. Not only
that they're all misguidance.
So he's not with that part of it. So it's one thing to say I have
certain opinions, it's another thing to say, all those methods
and all those SATs and all those meta D Ds, their complete
innovators is you can say, I disagree. And I feel I feel that
that conclusion is erroneous, even if you can say that, in itself is
an innovation that doesn't make the whole person an innovator.
Because if you come up with an answer to a new question, and we
disagree on what the answer is, clearly, there is no discussion on
it in the past, we're bringing a new question. And we answering it
differently. I wouldn't I can say I believe you're totally wrong
about them. That doesn't mean I hold you to be an innovator out of
Arizona, your deeds don't count. We don't want to pray behind you.
We don't want to marry you. We don't want to be your friend
anymore. That is what you that's how you treat an innovator. We're
not marrying you. We're not praying behind you. We're not
hanging out with you. We're not going to your massage. It's a
complete cut the same day as Sunni and Shia as like a complete gulf
between the two. That is the example of the innovator and the
Sunni, right.
So that's the example that now you don't want coming and treat.
Alright, our biggest sources, of course, will be
a no even 100. Are you going to treat them as innovators? Because
you disagree with their opinion on things?
Yeah, they accept them. They but they don't have but they won't
accept their followers, or anyone who says what they say. How does
this make any sense? So it's that extreme of tub, dia, that is a
problem. Forget that we're not even going to discuss them. I said
we couldn't we could discuss them aside, but we're not even gonna
just start off with that. Right. So just that is the main issue.
A good book on this called
by
threatening Dr. Abdullah, Hassan something if he has an
interesting, here's a little chart on like the opinions of the
Salafi. I'm like Benny's, fatawa and members and all of them and
how they have completely differing opinions. So they're different
amongst themselves very different. Was that if you if you Yeah, so
he's his point is basically if you're saying that difference of
opinion is yes, it's only correct opinion then, according to your
own men hedge all of your shoes are innovators according to each
other. Yeah. So they make that distinction there but not for the
mother. Thank you very much. They have so many distinct, awkward
beliefs and Arpita complete polar opposites. Complete polar
opposites. Right. Okay, here's another question.
From a Miksa my husband pays every year on my gold jewelry, hand if
he felt that they have to pay zakat on gold jewelry.
Okay, but no. In the medical school Shafi school, there's no
zakat on jewelry, jewelry, even if you don't wear it, but it's a
necklace right and you've had a sitting for 40 years in your
in your drawer.
I know that you do not have to base a cat on that. Okay. But
anyway, let's see what she says here. My husband pays a cat every
year on my gold jewelry, but for the past two years, due to
unstable income and debt, he is unable to pay the cat on my gold.
So So do I have to sell my jewelry to pay zakat on it? No, sister?
There's no cat on jewelry. Take that opinion.
Do you have to pay as a cat multiple times on the same gold?
If you have gold bullion,
if you have a hill of gold bullion, let's say you have I
don't know give me a number that people might have if they have
Boolean, you know the bricks. If you have that. Every year that you
have lunar year that it's sitting there doing nothing, you basically
count on it. That's why it's better to invest your money.
Got it?
So Lily Rose is correct that the ruling for jewelry regarding Zika
is different from investment. He just want to invest. No problem
that then you're gonna pay as a cat on that. So gold bullion, even
if you buy jewelry with the intent that it's investment you don't
miss out on it, because you could wear it to right now I don't think
anyone does that because you're paying too much now, right? You're
paying for the gold and the labor
is gold ring considered saved wealth.
A gold ring is jewelry knows a cat on it for a woman. Okay?
If a man owns a gold drink its wealth because he's not allowed to
wear it. It's not jewelry for him. For some reason a man inherits
from his dad. Gold, right? Let's say your dad was a Hindu. And he
had tons of gold because you know, there were a lot of gold the men
too. So you took that from him now or whatever he gave it to you as a
gift that's for you wealth. Unless it's jewelry that could suit a
woman, then you can give it to your wife and then it's jewelry.
Okay.
Now, what is the relationship between Zika and debt? The answer
is you calculate all that you owe in Zika.
And then you calculate all that you owe in debt. And you subtract
the debt from the Zika.
And then you pay on what's remaining. So let's say my as a
credible amount, that Zika that I owe is $20,000. I owe $20,000, of
Zika.
But my debt
is $15,000. So how much is it? Do I owe on? No, I always occur on
$5,000
or $5,000 of Zika. So I was going to pay $20,000. But said I was
Hold on, I forgot to subtract my debts. Okay, now I subtract my
debt. Now I pay on the rest. Some of the scholars now ask the
question,
all debt or just what is due of the debt? And for that the medical
answer is all debt. So you have a debt on $500,000 left up paying
off your house, then it's $500,000 of debt, right? Because if you
can't pay, what are you going to be? What's going to be against you
500,000 But some of the automat said at that point no one would
ever pay.
So, what they said is you would take off the monthly debt. So what
I got a monthly car payment coming up, I got a monthly house payment
coming up I got a monthly this, this this this this same thing
with a store, I have all the inventory, I take the value of
that inventory 2.5% of the inventory.
But then I also have I pay rent, I pay electricity utility bills, I
have salary, subtract that from that. And you have what's
roommates. Okay, same thing. Some people they have, they run a
business, but they have like they rent machines, you can subtract
one month that monthly payments. Okay? That's how people do it. Can
I buy a house with a mortgage loan, you should use one of the
shorter contracts and I know a lot of people whine and complain about
those shoddy contracts, but at least on the face of it, it's a
valid contract and that's what matters. That's what Allah is
gonna ask us about rapid fire. And guys interrupt me if you want to
say something. Okay, can the subject of the increasing rate of
Muslim men and women with narcissistic personality disorder
okay. So many victims of this kind of abuse? This is bad to be in the
households. Parents gotta raise their kids to be not selfish. A
Miksa last discussion on Abu Talib accepting Islam.
What about the incident where on Fetzer Mecca Well, Buckler Sadiq
said he would have been happy if the prophets uncle accepted that
his debt that's correct. There's another one that says say naughty
refused to prey on his dad.
Right? Prophesy Sam said sorry, bury his dad said bury your
father. He said No, he's emotionally I'm not touching him.
He said bury him. So we learned FIP from this actually, when your
non Muslim parent dies, you bury them. You don't do all the rituals
of Aslan all that, but you would just wrap them in anything and
bury them in the Christian graveyard. That's what you would
do if your mom dies outside of Islam. So the all those are the
arguments about outside of dying outside of Islam. And Allah knows
best perhaps the prophesy said it.
Left it to appear that way, because there weren't really two
witnesses or even one witness for his shahada, except they say it
was an ibis, right? They say Allah best witnessed it, so you end up
with both sides of the discussion. Got
it.
This is not really a make or break belief that you need to have
so it's safer to believe
what's good from it
yeah you whichever will person whichever belief you die upon. But
then how do you handle the evidences
you know, yeah
I feel like it's not gonna be asked about this. Yeah, this is
not a matter of opinion that we're going to be asked about
what's
the chart of what?
Oh, you found the chart saying holding what their different
beliefs are?
What does it say here
there are even masa in nakida were one of them, I think the faux Zen
I don't want to call and that's fit but go to the Arpita part. One
of them said on the issue of there are seven who are in the shade of
Allah on the Day of Judgment. So the one scholar said clearly,
it is the shade that Allah creates on the Day of Judgment, right?
Shade that he creates, and only people that He permits enter that
shade. And anyone who thinks other than that is a donkey. Then they
bought his colleague right who was actually older than him previous
Mufti before him
quoting and saying No, Allah has a shade that befits His Majesty the
shade from himself the shade of himself his sheet right like this
is my shade right now cover my shade on the table. So
and they're like colleagues one of them said he's a donkey who says
this these are that's like a very simple idea the question right
so there have differences amongst themselves so why should they be
so shocked when someone differs with their also
that's another problem too. It's another issue. They also don't
have they throw out the phrase Muqtada and machinic so easily,
like what is the actual line
Yeah,
but then again when you have like 100% correlation of all the
students that it's gotta go back to the scholars eventually to
right
Can the subjects Alright, let's talk about this next question here
after the gold master
mata ki and gold Yep, in jewelry All right.
Mohammed says the Hanafy position is the that nisab of gold is at
7.5 grams
at 7.5 grams you know we would
kind of he's I believe I heard that before.
Yeah, I remember Cory actually being surprised when I said
there's no zakat on jewelry he said teach people correctly as
attachments Correct?
Did we answer the mortgage question? Yes. Is it a sin to keep
the outer uncovered unnecessarily while alone? Yes, this is not we
cannot say it's sinful but it's not from the Moodle earnest not
from the sunnah to let's say your home alone in the house you have
melodica with you. So you should cover your outer. I would say we
can say that it's my crew. I can't say we're sinful. So I'm going to
walk around * selfies specified sinfulness permissible sinful
and then women's
Shoulders down
from the shoulders to the knee
Okay, from the belly button to the knee but walking around * in
the house this is a cruel orphan sinful
mcru
Sinful from the Hanafi school
based on what what's the you know the proof
it's simple. You shouldn't walk walk around * in your home
selling insurance unlawful
How could you say that your friends sell insurance my friends
do unlawful things. What can I tell you?
I like them they're my friends but their job is unlawful I'm sorry to
tell you that.
Oh, but you take insurance Yes, we we may have to take something as a
rasa as a fatwah okay.
Right
Not even as a photo as the ruler, I'm sorry, that would be better to
put as the ruler. That doesn't mean we can sell, you cannot sell
what can be taken as a load or I can eat pork as a Luna, if there
was a situation like that. If I'm in jail, and they deprive me of
food, may Allah protect everyone from going to jail, okay for 30
days, and then they're messing with your head and they say, Okay,
let's give him pork and wine and beer. Right? As a Muslim, if you
choose to avoid it and die, you can do that. But if you also
choose to eat it and live, there is no sin against you to eat pork
ribs, right? And drink beer to live because they're torturing
you. They're starving you. But now, does that mean I'm now
allowed to go and sell beer and pork? Of course not. So likewise,
the ruler out, entering into the insurance contract, which is a
money for money contract and an unknown for an unknown. So I know
what I'm paying, but I don't know what I'm getting back. I may get
nothing back.
Every good driver gets nothing back. You know what you probably
better off every once in a while financially, mathematically, I'm
saying is to have certain accidents. I'll tell you why.
Certain fender benders will require the entire fender to be
fixed, including the little scuff marks that were not accidents,
like little bumps that you're not going to report to the insurance.
Then one day someone bashes the back of your car, you get the
whole thing replaced. Car looks a lot better, right? So at least you
got something for all the insurance pay me you pay $300 a
month, $200 a month to Geico and you're a good driver, shouldn't
you get rewarded for this? No, you get punished, you lose all your
money. But when a guy gets hit once, in the back of his fender,
he reports that to the insurance, he gets himself a new fender and
his insurance may not even go up. By the way. If someone hits you,
that guy's insurance pays, right. And if it's nature than your
insurance will pay. Let's say it's a tree falls on the back of my
car. My insurance doesn't go up. Right.
But I get a new fender
even if the entire hood and the glass a tree falls it during a
snowstorm my insurance doesn't go up because I didn't do anything
wrong. And I got a whole new window and a whole new Okay.
All right. So that's why insurance is an unlawful contract for us and
it's not permitted for Muslims to sell it or be a salesman for
how to become present in vicar is to remember the one whom you are
remembering. Got to be present and decode is to remember the one whom
you remember in the beginning, you focus on the words you're
reciting.
And the end, after that you will you remember the one whom you're
remembering. So it begins with the action first. And then you elevate
in your consciousness to the one whom you are remembering.
Do we do sulla Ebrahimian in the net villa? Yes, you do. Really any
Salah on the prophet but slightly Brahimi being the best.
Why is it specified at
the beginning and the first prophet after the flood the last
prophet of
Ibrahim and Mohamed Salah Tyson.
And so Ali Ibrahim, everyone who supports Ibrahim, from Mohammed,
up from Prophet Isa up to Ibrahim, they're all Ali Ibrahim and from
all the Saudi in afterwards, from our time to the prophesy son,
that's Ali Mohammed. Because even Malik specified that early
Muhammad Ali Ibrahim is everyone who loves and supports them. So
that we all mean from the time of Ibrahim until the time of Muhammad
when we say Addy Ibrahim and then from when we say it Muhammad all
we need from our time until the profits I said so that yesterday
Jimmy had Momineen
making hallmarking the profits as like the main
posts in our history.
There was a lay man make a judgment on which is the correct
aka the layman's. It's the head of the layman is which scholar is
most worthy to follow. So you should study the works of the
great scholars and see which is most worthy to follow. Who would
scholar seems to like you knows the best the most I mean, and you
gotta keep in mind if I say for example, my choices, I'm a chef a
Alright, there are Messiah and no, that didn't exist in the time of
Shafi. So I have to go down the line and history and I have to
make another choice to on the new matters. Then I gotta go down in
today's matters like for example, you
Even if I said I'm not as that even though I said the mama see,
you'll see who came in around the year 1000. That doesn't answer me
questions on Bitcoin on cryptocurrency, right on IVF. So
everyone who is a student of knowledge must ask themselves, who
is the Mufti alive today that is most worthy of following.
So you're gonna have scholars in each of the major tranches of
Islamic history that you deem most worthy of following that will help
you answer those questions that didn't come in the time of the
previous scholar. See, everyone says, Okay, I live and die by Imam
Malik. No, you don't know you don't write. There are 1000s of
Messiah that never came into the time of a medic in water. So he'd
probably write, which is halfway through the history. And there are
hundreds of questions now that you live with every single day that
you need to fetch one. So you could say yes, hit Malik, and
America thereafter. But in each period of time, you're going to
need to pick a mufti, you're gonna need to pick a scholar that you
say he's the most worthy of following. So in the middle
period, I'm going to say all right, Khalil is most worthy of
following in the last period, I'm going to say, you know, whoever is
then I'm going to say sorry, after whatever I'm going to keeps
pointing until I come today, and I say yes, today, if I have a photo,
I go to shift so and so. Right for the festival.
Or you can have multiple because not every move, Mufti is going to
answer every question or be accessible to you to answer every
question, or have a website, where I can research all his fatawa so
you may have a list of 50s that you access.
Muhammad Ali, how's it going?
Talk? Talk to me.
Mashallah, you finished an exam finally, fully Napoli. It's just
like, one after another. It's just keeps going, man. How much
medicine do people have to take? The funny thing is that I
finished, like was on the last year, I finished my psych lecture.
And it was like a conversation. Yeah. It's like, it's yeah, these
words are terrible. This stuff is sick. The stuff is, it's I think,
I think they got it down to a formula. Yeah. popular, popular
identity movement leads to pill popping, right? And all these
like, I was actually increased like suicide. Totally, totally. I
identify as a sociopath. Give it a month, you're gonna see a nice
colorful purple plum commercial on TV, right? Do you identify as a
sociopath, right? And then you have a woman riding a bike, you
know, these these corny and lame pharmaceutical commercials, and
then the pill comes out. Right? Right. Ever since I've been taking
these pills. Right, I can control my sociopathy. Right? I'm telling
you it's gonna end up in taking a pill it must this stuff is
economics. It does you don't land on the New York Times, except that
some advertisers got you they're big pharmaceutical companies.
They're like they're like in hella depth. And because of like, it
takes like $2 billion that just Oh, totally, totally do anything
to make it pass forged data and stuff like they have to? They have
to? Yeah, they're they have to Yeah, yeah.
Indian Allah ma Imam Rabbani used to discover tombs of Indian
prophets why American Allah ma haven't found out American or
Canadian Prophet tombs, while turquoise, you're saying this Imam
would have been used to discover tombs of Indian prophets as if it
that has rendered at a cutter effects.
It's not a cut a fact that maybe his McCosh suffer. Okay, that's a
cut from him. And it's not a cutter effect with all due respect
to scholars, but the MacArthur fat that so and so buried here is a
was a prophet from way back in the past. That's a funny,
inferential it's from him, maybe from America or it's inferential
knowledge. It's not
it's not definitive knowledge.
And so
I'm not I wouldn't be surprised if someone comes and says, Oh, I
discovered a Native American with so and so.
Chief was a prophet a long time ago, way before the time of the
prophets of Allah. What he was saying was, it means nothing to
us. It's just your let's say I had a dream I had a Macassar for
further you're not going to discover prophethood by digging up
artifacts, it's going to be by mocha Shiva. Right? What other
aspects
aspects of our channel of knowledge is there? Okay, so your
mocha does not mean anything to anybody else, except the people
who believe you. Right. And mocha Scheffer is like any other thing
that you see with your eyes. You could have seen wrong, right? You
could have seen you could be the most honest person in the world
with 2020 vision and still see wrong
Okay, or you can have a bad memory. Okay. So Ali downstairs in
the main room he been there. How many tables are there?
So you don't know. Same thing. He has perfect eyesight, perfect
memory. And he's been in the room downstairs many times. He can't
tell you how many tables there, right? It's just not one of the
things that I remember. Likewise, a dream from a wedding or
something can be 100% 100% honest, but
doesn't have the recall. Right? That's it.
So, what's the difference seen for rasa and mocha? And Ill him.
Okay. Well, I'll answer you this question, Phil rasa has to do with
detecting the precursors of an effect. Okay. That's the rasa, the
precursor of an effect. There are signs for something to happen.
Everything that happens there are signs before it. Okay, that's,
that's and then the more subtle, you know, the signs, the stronger
the fit. Awesome. So if a guy comes Emraan comes and talks with
a British accent and we say you're British. That's not for us. Right?
Because that is jelly. It's jelly. But if I detect a little hint of
an accent within an accent and I say, Are you from this
neighborhood of of England, right. How do you know that? Now, because
now that is a sign that is huffy. Fear. Rasa is the detection of
indicators that are huffy that 95% of the population won't see there
are signs that 95% of the people won't see. So philosopher example
is like Sherlock Holmes, when he says, I saw an under your nails,
you know, little green, that means you were scratching something
green, right? That's for us. It is like very subtle hints. Now the
ferocity of the Olia and the meaning is even deeper, they see
the signs of Allah's actions.
And we gave examples of those when Allah wills an action that is
blessed. Or when he wills the punishment, there are little
subtle
signs there and they read and they know those signs. And we talked
about this in the hadith of Tara dude before. So that is the
element of fear rasa. Mocha Shofur is without any of these signs and
is just a dream that Allah puts in the heart of the Willie.
That's more Christopher.
A vision that Allah puts in and Wilhem I think you could say is
synonymous for our purposes, right now synonymous to mocha Shiva.
And can we ask Allah for these things? I don't.
These things you don't have to ask for them. You avoid sins,
and do a lot of remembrance of Allah. And if you avoid sin since
for 70 days and Sunday nights, and you're very sincere, and you're a
bad and you do to her job and you fast, and you do a lot of
remembrance. Then these things happen by themselves. A moment had
that says, it's almost like cause and effect. These things always
follow. In the same way. He says it's no different than drinking
water and feeling quenched.
Okay.
Where can I get the most mental and emotional help from an
Islamically knowledgeable person says, Izzy.
In a few months, we're going to be launching our program for this
just for this non religious life help from an Islamic perspective.
That means we get someone to help you walk through your tribulations
of life, be it in marriage. I mean it you're going to be a life
coach. All right, you're going to be able to prescribe
you can't prescribe it all. Yeah, but you can sneak out some *
or whatever right?
So I'm a daddy coming in. And Mercedes he's selling stuff on the
side. Right? Good. Daddy got what is this? A 10 year pharmaceutical
program seems like you've been in this program forever.
How many years is it?
More year, every year he tells me Oh, one more year last year of
this and one more year that right?
My guess?
How long is this program? And after all that, you're gonna sit
in a little room smaller than this studio for eight hours at
Walgreens? Giving strangers medication.
I hope they give you a lot of money. I mean, just it's like
being in a jail.
That I look back at the CVS and Walgreens it's a little thing this
big, right? This big, the strip the area and it's all rows and
people bumping into each other fulfilling orders.
Read it to me.
Son of Zeitgeist says what are the signs
are all signs that Allah intends goodness or punishment if ALLAH
inspires you to Toba? He was good for you. If he inspires you to
seek knowledge he seeks good for you. If he if you find yourself
taking sins lightly, then he will still punish you. It's not he
wasn't punished you you're bringing upon yourself.
It's how you respond to the tribulations go.
Is there a limit?
No, all of gold jewelry is exempt with no limit you can have, for
example, let's say 1000 grams of jewelry. Right? And you're exempt
from all of it.
Whether you wear it
doesn't matter where you read or not. No, it's it could be worn.
Where was the the question there? There was a starred question. Yo,
zaev. Did you see that that there was a brother who asked a question
that, you know, those starred question this new thing that
YouTube has?
Okay.
Mixing and matching methods is blameworthy.
Would it be blameworthy? And what would be the shot a ruling, it's
not blameworthy as the acts of a bad are valid? If the whole act of
a bad is done per one school of thought it is valid? And you then
go on you'll make your own mix and match. So on Money Matters. I'm
Hanafy on food on Maliki on socks? I'm humbly Okay, and so on and so
forth. Right?
Everything you're doing is valid, but this is not a methodology of
the automat. Why? Because you're putting your knifes as the
decision maker, the methodology of ever you will not find me one
righteous Willie of Allah scholar item who acts upon his knowledge
imam who acts upon this, who does that why the the more rational,
correct way sincere way is to ask yourself which scholar is most
worthy of following and I follow him not what is best to meet for
my nefs. Okay, no, that's not how you do it. So you're valid but
blameworthy, there is something called valid but blameworthy if a
Muslim comes and says to me, Listen, I'm going to pray five
Salah every day, I'm not going to miss a single one. Okay, and I'll
throw in which one rocker not to one, one, just one guy. And I'm
going to fast and I'm not going to commit any sense.
And he says, Is this a bad a valid is a is valid, but is blameworthy?
to purposely avoid doing no effort, right? He's telling you
I'm not doing anymore. That's blameworthy, but your I bet is
valid. No one can blame your salon as being invalidated. Are you a
facet? No, no one will say you're a facet.
Differentiate between
yourself and then?
Correct. Correct. The Mufti is, however, for the public use the
regular, a guy comes in and asks you a question you give him the
easiest opinion, or what's what you believe suits him. Sometimes
he's, he's someone, the easiest opinion doesn't suit him.
Sometimes this is someone who actually needs to learn to put
some effort in the dean. All right, and that if you continues
down this route, there's no effort, there's no resistance.
So sometimes you need some resistance. And you're allowed to
switch with another method out no matter which is difficult for you
to do, like we do that in Food Matters, our big shield do that in
the medical school, on
the nudges of alcohol, there's little alcohol traces of different
types of alcohol and every food, like vanilla extract can't do
this. Half of all of you are
on every chapter, there's going to be something in which you rely on
the Hanafi school, write a contract with an invalid clause,
is you can take that in the Hanafi school and act as long as you
don't act upon that one clause. Madigan Sheffy. So the whole of
contracts invalid. In that case, no one will ever have a credit
card if you don't have a credit card, you may not have credit
ratings, you might not be able to rent a car, for example. So these
are myths that come up that the Hanafi school
it's almost like it grew in a in a culture mixed with Muslims and non
Muslims. So it renders our it's mimics our culture. So we benefit
from that. Likewise, Jana to Demacia is a masala that I think
that I'm going to talk about yesterday. It's they're more lacs
on that. So if you're working at ShopRite, and every one out of 100
items
Is that being checked in as a unlawful item? It's not something
you have to quit your job by though I just said one out of 100.
They they didn't say they said the general store is a halal product.
They saw how that products, halal business, but one or two things
couple of things here and there. They didn't say a number or
percentage is unlawful. He said, Yeah, you could work there, even
if it ends up being hand. So for example, flight attendants then at
that point, right by Hanafy rules, if someone you're going to serve
95% of the time you're serving the regular people, and every once in
a while, someone says I need to go in order wind, right? And then you
bring it to them. According to what they said, um, that my
saying, don't quote me for saying that. It's what the Neff said,
that your love, it's lawful for you to do that. Don't Don't quote
me on that. That's the quote, A Hanafi school on that, and they
have lifted off within the school by the way, but just to tell you,
and to point you in that direction, if you need to know.
To know about it.
Egyptian secularists got rid of mercy. It was a form of mass self
immolation washing away the sacrifices made in Egypt. Okay,
this is on self immolation, the destroying yourself.
And they're making like an analogy there. Glass Angel says there are
some groups I know personally who practice the mode and believe the
soul of the Prophet sallallahu. It was Sanlam visits Molad
gatherings. What is the correct view of this issue? We just say
what the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam says when we say a Salah,
and Salam on the Prophet, he returns the salon, sunnah. Okay,
whether you want to say he returns it now, he returns it every
Thursday night doesn't make a difference. You should know for
sure, when you utter salah, and Salam on seydel Conan, he responds
back into hits and misses. That's all you need to worry about. And
is it lawful for you to specify one day for the gathering for the
Prophet sallallahu it was Saddam.
And they say, well, the prophet never did this. So are we allowed
to do this? Okay, hold on a second. Aba.
See, even the mike doesn't like this fits our right.
So the same is is are we allowed to, to schedule Days is what
you're asking, am I allowed to schedule repeatedly annually every
year? I'm going to do something on a certain day. Are you telling me
that that's not lawful? Because hold up because all school starts
in the same month? All taxation happens in the same month? All
your scheduling of your life happens in the same month? Don't
go out for anniversary then? Because that's happening every
day? Now, do your anniversary on any day? Go tell your wife that
right? No, from now on. We're not doing the anniversary on June 1
with the day we got married. We're going to do any other day except
June 1, go and ask any rational logical person. What did the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam say about Ashura?
Ashura, he asked why the Jews fasting on this day they said
Moses was saved on this day. Okay, so he did link an act of worship
to a good day an event that Allah was blessed us and that that day,
how about fasting? The man said, Oh, Missoula, should I fast on a
Monday, he said I was born on a Monday. So to link a happening in
life with an action that we're going to do annually or weekly,
because I shoot us annually.
And Monday is weekly, or fasting is weekly.
The Prophet himself did it. So number one, I asked you to then
bring me a proof that I cannot schedule something annually. If
you do bring me such a proof, then apply it to yourself on every
other act of a bada. So every hip school, every dot, all of them, Do
not tell me you're grabbing graduation on June. You're not
telling me you're having your recitation days on whatever. Okay,
and then let's go to the week, don't then schedule anything
weekly either. All right. Number three, we said the prophets law he
was Sunday himself did the Prophet himself scheduled his fast on
Monday because he was born on a Monday, he scheduled then the
first thing of all showed up because on that day, he didn't
say, let's honor Musa Yes. And let's be thankful to Allah that He
saved Musa alayhis salam, but let's pick any other day except
the day that Allah chose. How's it make any sense?
So
sorry, speak, if
anything
I can say, I'm just gonna take it in there right now. Okay. Any
subject doesn't have to be the subject.
So, just thinking about the self mutilation.
So, sociopathy is the lack of empathy.
What do you call the
opposite? Yeah.
I have a question. That's a great point. Why did the sociopaths
don't
Why don't they damage themselves? Why are they improving their life?
Getting a PhD writing a book? That's why I really liked that
comment from California, the lady says, What is the difference
between a sociopath and just a selfish person? Right? Because it
seems to be you just don't care about others. But you seem to
really care about yourself. You go out dressed up in New York Times
and get a PhD, and make and create a whole ideology behind your, you
know, your whims and your desires and your perceived feelings about
yourself.
It's just arrogance and selfishness. So if you truly
sociopathic, you also would harm yourself to write. Otherwise, it's
just purely selfishness. Ryan speak.
Say the Lakonia and add a Salatu was Salam said, Oh, merchant
selling can involve false oats and idle talk. So mix some charity
with it. Can you explain this? Yes, the answer to this comes in
another Hadith. The hidden charity is in buying and selling and
forgiving debts. So what does that mean? It means that
if a guy comes to you with with a deal, and you know that this
person is a genuine and good, you know, vendor, so charity is in
letting him have a little bit more of the profit, rather than
skimming him to the bone so that he can only profit you know, a 2%
margin or 3% margin that becomes pointless for him right? So that's
where now then there's a man with a debt. He's late on the debt All
right, that's okay. He's late he paid you a little less. You don't
give him a hard time you may ask him but you don't give them the
hard time. So in ease in the relationship of buying and selling
that's where the prophets of Allah when he was Saddam said the hidden
charity is in buying and selling. Okay.
Our premium bonds allowed
the bond is liberally transaction okay, you're buying something and
you're guaranteed back a certain amount. Okay. Is there a different
definition from the Premium Bonds
let's look that up
Premium Bonds
it says here they are different it says they don't earn interest
instead there's an annual prize fund rate that funds a monthly
prize draw for tax free prizes
now I'll read about this later
I'll read about it later
yeah, I have to get a good to so whatever the masala and ask around
and make sure that I answer you properly as for regular bonds I
can tell you that because we went over that miss that and many times
that masala
okay
what is the extent one has to go investigate whether Muslim shop
sells halal meat if the owner is apparently a Muslim in front of
you and he tells you this meat is halal. And you look around you and
seems to be that the community accepts him. That's enough.
Can the house purchase through installments still being paid for
be rented out? If the if the yes you can because once you purchase
it you are the owner of the house. Right
now you're just paying it off.
So you can rent it out? Of course.
Assault on mute Thank you very much for your comment. Anything
from Instagram nothing as we wrap up here permissibility of working
for insurance? Yes, we answered that news. It's not permissible to
buy and sell something that is allowed for us to take as a law
Rudra it's allowed for us to to use insurances I believe we have
to state requires from us to have certain insurance and it's a
dharuhera for health insurances of the ruler, no doubt no one who
most people will not have $30,000 to have a kid on the spot. You got
to pay the hospital. Throughout the nine months, I should say that
you would pay that much of money right to have a kid. Most people
don't have that amount of money some people do. But nonetheless
other sicknesses the medicine school costs $4,000 a month. We
know people that take their their medicinal receipt every month, the
medicine that they take is like $6,000 a month because they have
diseases right? Who has that amount of money so that's the
route at that point.
You can get health insurance for like 200 bucks a month. Yeah, you
can get but you have to get it from that Obama. What do they call
it? Yeah.
Exactly. Exactly.
Yes, speak.
Our Satan's forbidden from
No,
no, there's nothing that says, We ask Allah to Allah for that for
the Quran, sign of the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam but
that's not at the point. It's different that we say we pray that
Allah to Allah guards, the all the family of the Prophet for the sake
of the Prophet. We know say Devonian loves his family like
anybody else. Right? You don't want your family to go to the
hellfire. So why are you so bold with added Bates, the prophets
family, even if it's 1000 years later
the Sejal Conan still loves his family, the Prophet said loves his
family as you would too. Okay.
So we had hoped that they not enter Jahannam but there is no Aki
at a point that says that the fire is forbidden on the family of the
Prophet slicin. We have no athlete appointed like that, but we hope
that it is. We hope that they're forgiven. Those who have done
wrong amongst them
based upon what
the he asked to make to offer them and he was told no.
Particularly his mother
his father wanted to change
as far as
you said I'd be looking for not okay, let me answer both of them.
So the first one, the mother of the prophets, I send them to say
that she's in the Hellfire because he asked to make drop for her and
that he was told no. The answer is this. There is a category of
people who never received the message. They are by FIP by
Shediac. Moodle, Huck, Bill kufr. How Coleman Sharon in our law,
they are treated as kuffaar. But the message never received reach
them. And hence they are people of Paradise because we say Well, Matt
couldn't have been hurt and Uttara Sula, this is the leader, right of
the Usher IRA and the Metro media and many of the Hannibal,
we don't punish until you get the message. So she didn't get the
message, obviously, right. There's no message at that time. Right? So
she didn't get the message. So we they must be treated as kuffaar
Mole hawkbill. Cofer meaning what? Meaning when I go to Native
American they never heard about Islam, right? Can I go now and
make dua at his grave? I can't. Okay, if a person comes to me and
brings me a person and tells me they never heard about Islam, I
said to her on her deathbed. Have you ever heard anything called
Islam? Allah Muhammad? She said, No, I've never heard of that. And
before I could speak another word she died. So we say she is an
edited fencer. She never heard the message. She goes to John, but we
bury her in the in the non Muslim graveyard. By law, she's not a
Muslim, but with Allah, she's forgiven goes to paradise. That's
number one.
Number two, and then you can ruse reply. The Father, the Prophet
salallahu. Cinema man, Kim said when my father died as a mushrik
and he's in the hellfire and the prophets I said, who said Abby
Walker for not my job your job is in the Hellfire but Allah clearly
states in the Quran.
Ibrahim is
Ibrahim who is Milo is Huck. St. Iacob Ali Salam Murta Abu do an
embody. He says, Oh, my son Jacob, on his deathbed, he says my sons
who do you worship after me? They said, God who? Naboo either heck,
we worship your God what Allah ik your father's Ibrahim is maidens
Huck hence the Quran itself tells us that the word up can refer to
the dad, the uncle, the grandfather, anyone who raised you
is your up so when the Prophet says EBI, a book if or not? It
does not necessitate his biological father he didn't say
well, he d were were to look for not my biological father. Your
biological father is in hellfire. You said no, my dad. The dad could
be anybody who raised you, or your uncle, or your grandfather. So in
this case, it's a hula hoop, clearly, right? At least we know
that for sure. Okay, because he's the uncle alright. So what is your
so therefore we cannot say with any jasm Nobody can say with jasm
that is we can say that that is an incorrect statement. And we can
say that his mother and his father are forgiven because they never
received the message. They're not even forgiven. They're not even
accountable in that sense, because they never received the message.
So therefore they're from edit agenda. They're stronger proof for
that
what do you
know
why Sunday's
will be in closers deposition. I can also see why the Celebes will
be inclined towards their position. Why would that and let
me tell you something else. Yeah, just because they cut and dry
literal. But but the cut and dry literal the Quran says
As we do not punish someone unless they got a message neither
Indonesia or Africa we had this discussion before but I'm not D if
you said it was great Halston. I know what the visa he at least
Shaco Vandy de to say that for for protests on the day of judgment
for law
moving into the fire
Okay, so that hadith isn't he's saying there's a hadith that there
will be tested on the Day of Judgment, right? So even if we say
that we tested how do we know that they won't pass the test? That's
number one.
That's number one. So we don't know that they're gonna not gonna
pass the test number two, that isn't I had Hadith and I'm giving
you a Quranic verse which one is heavier?
Right.
So here, but it's had, it's not a mature watch it Hadith. So the
Hadith in matters of Akita will not override and what to what to
verse of Quran
or provide an exception
in direct conflict with
a warning, but he also says that the dunya is the abode of tests,
not the ACA. So that also is another issue that that hadith has
to go through. Right? The dunya is the abode of testing the ACA is an
abode of Jezza. Right? So it's not the abode of testing there is no
till more testing in the ACA. Okay, so when we have a verse and
a hadith like that, we don't say the Hadith, we throw it or we
discard it, we suspend it, we say it's there. But the Quranic text
is heavier and that's what our RT does. Right? Now. Let me tell you
something else. Even if you were to believe
that there in the fire is forbidden to say it. Why is it
forbidden set to not the prophets I send them say, alright, Karima
is coming stop talking ill of Abuja, and that's all of Abuja
heljan. So who's going to be more sensitive about his parents? Right
Kadima to the open enemy of Islam, Abuja, or the Prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, to his parents who never even did
anything wrong.
So even if you were to have apps you were to read in the law *
my foods there in Jahannam, you can say it.
Because it'd be it would injure the profit in Nevada can be called
answers. This used to harm the Prophet peace be been phased out
he Minko what used to harm the Prophet peace be upon him delaying
his time that he has with his wife, you saying too long in his
house? And the Prophet already? How much time does he have in the
first place? Right? But he would be ashamed to tell his Hobbit to
leave.
And the Prophet has so it's so busy, right? And his wife needs
him.
And he says that used to harm the Prophet if that used to happen the
Prophet imagine saying his parents are in the hellfire.
Right,
ladies and gentlemen.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Thank you. Where'd you find this well book. Look at this daughter,
FET student one year daughter Mustafa goes in and within five
minutes finds as the evidence. Johanna Toshi, and this is what
shot has this to offer to Mohammed Ali George, this is my book or
yours. This is actually mine. I've been looking for this book, okay.
Anyway, all right. It says here. The Hadith of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said lamb as at an apple wears it. Were
alum as an entity Lu min l OS lob a TA Herat. I continue to be trans
descent I get in transmit be transmitted from pure loins, ill
or ham is Zack yet into pure wounds. And Allah says in them and
we should be cool and they're just the Mushriks are nudges but the
Prophet said I go from pure lines to pure wombs
where the Hadith and what's our Tarun okay
all right, so Allah says in the Quran than we should because not
just the Prophet den says all his forefathers were pure, and his
four mothers were pure
not just in Magnolia, like it's, it's a purity, and it's a purity
and it is a impurity that is of meaning.
Yeah, yeah. This smell. Don't leave it. Yeah. Because there's
there's a lengthy topic that goes into no other issues. But
basically in a nutshell
Is
your DNA
law?
No.
So you use you What were you born then? If there's Cofer, any man in
the DNA, they're saying that they're taking it that literally
the inner man wishes he couldn't adjust that they are the pagans
are impure, that they're actually impure in their constitution. No,
it means that the shipwreck is an impurity of the heart that is an
unseen impurity. And possibly, they didn't take those because
they don't believe in us. So they're just, they're not just in
that respect, right. But, but
yeah, but then again, if I touch if I pray, right, and let's say my
mom is in a wheelchair, and my mom's not a Muslim,
hypothetically, I'm praying and I want to make sure the wheelchair
doesn't roll away and I hold her hand.
In a moment, she's gonna notice my selasa here not because I'm
holding the Jessa know, the mom is not nervous. Right? She's not
nervous. Emotionally, person is not nervous. It's manually it's in
meaning that the shitcan adjust. What did they say? Because they
said that they hold that the music is actually not just no
no, no, no wasn't there no of his has said this, but I don't know if
you were familiar with the person Anthony patch.
No.
Conflict Krishna clarified going to court and then the COVID-19 No,
I don't know, pandemic. But um, yes. So he spoke out against
taking the vaccine. Because, you know, it's an altering of the DNA.
Yeah. So, you know, he basically saying you're saying that by
taking the vaccine, the alteration of the DNA, they will cut you off
from the bomb from from the mercy of God, and there's some Muslims
that did entertain him is in this discussion.
They didn't definitively say no, see, that is the case. So they're
just speculating. Yeah, okay.
Okay.
It's personal personality disorder, something in Islam it
could possibly be a mental disorders are for sure.
sicknesses. That's for sure. sicknesses. How we treat them is
different. Okay.
There is an Islamic psychology YouTube channel, but in Islam, we
do believe in mental sickness, there is no doubt about that.
So but what we were criticizing the whole time is that whole
treatment of the mental sickness that seemed more like an arrogant
fraud to me selfish and arrogant fraud than someone with a mental
sickness.
Ladies, gentlemen, we got to go unfortunately. Okay. This stack of
books that out your services asking about is JAMA, Leah camel
Quran li Sedna, Abby, sir Abdullah Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Ansari, Al
Quran will be also known as TF C, it occurred to me and it is 10 or
11 volumes long. And we read from it every once in a while and this
book that we just read from you, this is our go to summary of the
SID creed, Joe HuHot a towhead with the commentary of Sedna
Ibrahim, the commentary of an Imam will be God sometimes pronounced
at baju at 200. So he'd written by Allah Connie the Egyptian and the
commentary of it by god known as Prophet and muddied it's not a big
book, it's only 330 pages, very easy to read good footnotes to
greige very good print and copy that gives you the subject matter
on the side that medicine in read the commentary in black and the
footnoting of the Hadith. I really liked this copy and I haven't seen
it in my in my house for a long time. Turns out it was in the
studio and the baraka of the subject has brought it back to me
Okay, so we should we got to read from this book every once in a
while because that's our go to but we don't say that the that is the
only sounds awkward the 100 but I have a sound athlete but we say
that that's what we study at least
does that come locker? Yeah.
Ashley's version of
Kitab it so heat from the aspect that they always go to it as their
number one book? Yeah, this is our number one book. Yeah.
He caught me off guard on that one.
