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

So he says here

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

that,

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

Sayna Imam Al Qarafi

00:00:09 --> 00:00:11

It's like really nice what he says. He

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

says,

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

Muhammad

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

is is going to be partitioned

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

with its old foundational issues

00:00:26 --> 00:00:27

and its secondary issues.

00:00:30 --> 00:00:30

And

00:00:31 --> 00:00:34

then its foundational issues are

00:00:34 --> 00:00:35

compartmentalized

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

into 2 parts.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:39

The first,

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

Satan.

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

Saying that and this is the definition of

00:00:57 --> 00:00:59

the and definitions of of those

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

that say that in the Hanafis also.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

These for the most part

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

are related to language.

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

So the axiom

00:01:23 --> 00:01:23

that's a principle.

00:01:35 --> 00:01:36

Then he says

00:01:40 --> 00:01:42

and then whatever else is similar to that.

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

Here it's better if there's no comma.

00:01:54 --> 00:01:56

Because if you think about and

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

is not

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

That's why I think I told you guys,

00:02:05 --> 00:02:06

Imam Asubki,

00:02:07 --> 00:02:08

Rahim Ohola.

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

And I think Imam Ashashi,

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

yeah, Sheikh Amar mentions this in his

00:02:17 --> 00:02:17

that

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

these

00:02:25 --> 00:02:26

are

00:02:27 --> 00:02:29

by necessity part of.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

But if you think about is not

00:02:35 --> 00:02:36

in the sense of what it is.

00:02:43 --> 00:02:44

Well, definitely

00:02:45 --> 00:02:48

is and is not part of usulofirk,

00:02:49 --> 00:02:50

but it is

00:02:50 --> 00:02:52

the natural outcome of usulofirk.

00:02:53 --> 00:02:54

According to the majority,

00:02:55 --> 00:02:57

like al Baydawi's definition,

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

Sorry, the minority.

00:03:07 --> 00:03:09

This definition is definition of the minority.

00:03:10 --> 00:03:11

Majority of Sunnis they say

00:03:18 --> 00:03:19

Right? They don't talk about

00:03:21 --> 00:03:23

They don't talk about all that. But they

00:03:23 --> 00:03:25

say that all that is like a natural

00:03:25 --> 00:03:26

outcome of this process.

00:03:29 --> 00:03:31

So that's the first. So that's why he

00:03:31 --> 00:03:32

gives you these examples.

00:03:33 --> 00:03:35

He mentions that, you know, for the most

00:03:35 --> 00:03:35

part,

00:04:52 --> 00:04:53

It has

00:04:54 --> 00:04:55

a infinite number of applications.

00:04:56 --> 00:04:58

One time I asked Sheikh doctor

00:04:58 --> 00:04:59

from

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

from Libya,

00:05:02 --> 00:05:03

is there a limit to

00:05:05 --> 00:05:05

he said no.

00:05:06 --> 00:05:08

In fact, until the end of times, people

00:05:08 --> 00:05:10

gonna be extracting.

00:05:16 --> 00:05:18

I have a question for you. If if

00:05:18 --> 00:05:20

I were to think about the the the

00:05:20 --> 00:05:23

the Diana of each of these, we said

00:05:23 --> 00:05:24

one is and

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

and the other one is Adelna, which is

00:05:27 --> 00:05:28

the the

00:05:28 --> 00:05:29

the.

00:05:31 --> 00:05:33

How do they so if if you if

00:05:33 --> 00:05:35

both of them were represented as circles,

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37

Right? Are are they are they are they

00:05:37 --> 00:05:39

you know, they interact? Are they are they

00:05:39 --> 00:05:40

like a Venn diagram?

00:05:40 --> 00:05:43

Or is one sort of encompassing the other?

00:05:44 --> 00:05:47

Because the the has to use the to

00:05:47 --> 00:05:48

generate the.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:49

Right.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:51

He has to so in order for him

00:05:51 --> 00:05:53

to come with the or

00:05:54 --> 00:05:54

he has to say

00:06:01 --> 00:06:03

he has to use all that in order

00:06:03 --> 00:06:04

to

00:06:05 --> 00:06:07

create, if you will, I'm saying it metaphorically,

00:06:07 --> 00:06:10

the ruling. So the relationship is almost like

00:06:10 --> 00:06:12

the ingredients and the chef.

00:06:13 --> 00:06:15

Right? So like the ingredients.

00:06:17 --> 00:06:18

The chef is the

00:06:20 --> 00:06:21

that's

00:06:22 --> 00:06:26

why uh-uh it's said you know Imam Abu

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

Hanifa used to say

00:06:27 --> 00:06:28

like

00:06:28 --> 00:06:31

you're you're the doctors were the prescribers.

00:06:39 --> 00:06:40

The one who

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42

implements this theory

00:06:42 --> 00:06:45

to answer questions and generate rulings.

00:06:46 --> 00:06:48

The is like the referee.

00:06:49 --> 00:06:51

The is like the player.

00:06:53 --> 00:06:55

Or the is the coach.

00:06:57 --> 00:06:58

Is the player.

00:06:58 --> 00:07:00

Of course, in the time of Madik and

00:07:00 --> 00:07:02

Bukhary, they were both.

00:07:04 --> 00:07:07

But it's not because scholarship is not strong

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

now.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

This is a mistake that the modern Muslim

00:07:10 --> 00:07:12

mind makes which is colonized.

00:07:14 --> 00:07:16

The number of juziyat that Muslims are dealing

00:07:16 --> 00:07:19

with now far outnumber the juziyat that they

00:07:19 --> 00:07:20

had to deal with.

00:07:21 --> 00:07:24

This notion that scholars are no good and

00:07:24 --> 00:07:25

scholars are stupid,

00:07:26 --> 00:07:27

the pace of the world

00:07:29 --> 00:07:31

is so much more faster. And so there

00:07:31 --> 00:07:33

has to be a way as we think

00:07:33 --> 00:07:34

about fiqh in the future

00:07:35 --> 00:07:38

that answers can be generated in a reliable,

00:07:38 --> 00:07:41

trustworthy way. And the mistake of some even

00:07:42 --> 00:07:43

hyper traditionalists

00:07:43 --> 00:07:46

who say there's, you know, no hope for.

00:07:47 --> 00:07:48

We should teach

00:07:51 --> 00:07:53

for. There should be a curriculum, not

00:07:54 --> 00:07:55

of course,

00:07:56 --> 00:07:56

but

00:08:04 --> 00:08:05

Of course,

00:08:05 --> 00:08:07

we we should teach for this. The Shias,

00:08:07 --> 00:08:09

they do a great job of doing this.

00:08:12 --> 00:08:12

We don't.

00:08:14 --> 00:08:15

Right?

00:08:15 --> 00:08:18

And it's sometimes given into this idea of

00:08:18 --> 00:08:20

not appreciating the fact that no, no, we

00:08:20 --> 00:08:22

have grateful kaha now, We

00:08:23 --> 00:08:24

have very knowledgeable,

00:08:26 --> 00:08:26

for example,

00:08:27 --> 00:08:29

very knowledgeable people, right?

00:08:30 --> 00:08:32

But the sheer number of

00:08:33 --> 00:08:34

challenges

00:08:35 --> 00:08:36

far outweighs

00:08:36 --> 00:08:38

because of mass communication itself.

00:08:39 --> 00:08:42

The pressure on the faqih is very different

00:08:43 --> 00:08:45

than say the types of pressure those people

00:08:45 --> 00:08:46

had to face.

00:08:48 --> 00:08:49

This is a mistake people make.

00:08:59 --> 00:09:00

They they came out of,

00:09:01 --> 00:09:03

like really came out of also, they're the

00:09:03 --> 00:09:05

outcome of also.

00:09:12 --> 00:09:15

These mentioned by, you know, many Olama, Imam

00:09:15 --> 00:09:17

Suiti mentions them in Kawakib Basalta.

00:09:17 --> 00:09:20

Imam Suki mentions them in Jamah Joama.

00:09:23 --> 00:09:25

They but the number of

00:09:27 --> 00:09:28

are is unlimited.

00:13:15 --> 00:13:15

Meaning,

00:13:16 --> 00:13:18

it cannot be opposed by other evidences.

00:16:36 --> 00:16:38

So those conditions of the Dalil is how

00:16:38 --> 00:16:41

you answer me said, no, man. You can't

00:16:41 --> 00:16:43

you can't use something that's mansuk

00:16:43 --> 00:16:44

because one of the conditions

00:16:45 --> 00:16:47

of a Dalil is its mustamiran,

00:16:48 --> 00:16:49

not mansuhan.

00:16:49 --> 00:16:52

So So here you see the relationship between.

00:16:52 --> 00:16:54

That's why I say the Mawlana, he says

00:16:54 --> 00:16:56

alleti yata was salubihah.

00:16:57 --> 00:16:58

Almushtihi

00:18:09 --> 00:18:11

So we see now the role of these

00:18:11 --> 00:18:11

is

00:18:12 --> 00:18:13

to allow us to achieve

00:18:14 --> 00:18:15

the correct ruling.

00:18:18 --> 00:18:21

Unfortunately, many Muslims perhaps like that young woman

00:18:21 --> 00:18:23

that or that older woman or that man

00:18:23 --> 00:18:24

that may ask that question,

00:18:24 --> 00:18:25

they're completely

00:18:26 --> 00:18:28

unaware of this important relationship.

00:20:05 --> 00:20:07

We're not talking about now and

00:23:25 --> 00:23:26

like this, like this, like this, they all

00:23:26 --> 00:23:27

go to the same dad.

00:24:04 --> 00:24:07

That's good. Is is it possible for us

00:24:07 --> 00:24:09

in in a further session to to to

00:24:09 --> 00:24:11

ask you questions about the material in this,

00:24:11 --> 00:24:12

history section?

00:24:13 --> 00:24:14

We can.

00:24:15 --> 00:24:18

We can. Yeah. Because I'm going I ran

00:24:18 --> 00:24:19

through most of it. Maybe a few more

00:24:19 --> 00:24:21

pages, but at some point, maybe I don't

00:24:21 --> 00:24:23

know. Do do you have any questions about

00:24:23 --> 00:24:24

this stuff?

00:24:24 --> 00:24:27

It's all about my knowledge and

00:24:57 --> 00:24:59

He says like a lot of interesting stuff

00:24:59 --> 00:25:00

about them, a lot of people don't pay

00:25:00 --> 00:25:01

attention to.

00:25:03 --> 00:25:06

And even he gets like way into like

00:25:06 --> 00:25:08

later, something he did good he goes like

00:25:08 --> 00:25:09

into the later years.

00:31:39 --> 00:31:40

Allah

00:32:24 --> 00:32:25

Which word?

00:32:25 --> 00:32:27

From time to time, this like this.

00:32:28 --> 00:32:29

Sometimes

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

From

00:32:39 --> 00:32:40

a time period. So

00:32:40 --> 00:32:42

some some time period

00:32:42 --> 00:32:43

every

00:32:43 --> 00:32:43

sometime

00:32:45 --> 00:32:47

your other times it corrected him.

00:34:23 --> 00:34:24

Why is he saying the same? Because,

00:37:17 --> 00:37:18

You have to

00:37:18 --> 00:37:21

understand this and study this well.

00:38:18 --> 00:38:20

The fruit of this book is good, man.

00:38:21 --> 00:38:22

And he doesn't

00:38:23 --> 00:38:25

waste a lot of time

00:38:25 --> 00:38:26

in philosophical

00:38:26 --> 00:38:28

stuff that people

00:38:28 --> 00:38:30

are not able to understand easily.

00:38:31 --> 00:38:34

He takes you to the guts of functional.

00:38:42 --> 00:38:44

Then I have the rojo can master and

00:38:44 --> 00:38:46

he can master of the and also

00:38:50 --> 00:38:51

because I have a class I have to

00:38:51 --> 00:38:52

go to now.
