Second thing is that Islam didn't ask us

00:00:01 --> 00:00:04

to be unified on these issue issues. Actually,

00:00:04 --> 00:00:06

asked us to differ with maturity.

00:00:07 --> 00:00:08

So like last night, there was a lady

00:00:08 --> 00:00:10

that told me, like, how come in our

00:00:10 --> 00:00:11

city we don't have one to eat? Because

00:00:11 --> 00:00:12

you don't have to.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:14

But you don't have that one to eat.

00:00:14 --> 00:00:16

That's that's pre that's postmodern unity.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:18

Right? Postmodern unity is fascism.

00:00:19 --> 00:00:22

But Islamic unity, actually, on many issues, is

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

very flexible. That's what makes it beautiful. We're

00:00:24 --> 00:00:25

we have a unity, but you know what?

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

You have this opinion. I have that opinion.

00:00:27 --> 00:00:29

Imam Shafi, when he went to Iraq and

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

he led salah, he didn't pray a kunoot

00:00:31 --> 00:00:31

in fajr.

00:00:32 --> 00:00:34

People ask him why. He said,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

have the cover. Respect that of Abi Hanifa.

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

In America, we don't say

00:00:39 --> 00:00:41

but if we lead the prayers with people

00:00:42 --> 00:00:44

who say it is recommended for us to

00:00:44 --> 00:00:45

say the.

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

So that maturity is there. Some people don't

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

have that maturity. Okay. Fine. You don't have

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

it? At least we agree to disagree. If

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

I can say to a disbeliever,

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

why can I say to a Muslim,

00:01:02 --> 00:01:02

Insanity?

00:01:03 --> 00:01:04

Oftentimes, we think of as

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

being strictly a message to Kufar, but what's

00:01:08 --> 00:01:09

inferred from is

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

a message of tolerance and maturity

00:01:13 --> 00:01:14

to non Kufar.
