So he says here
that
Muhammad
is is going to be partitioned
with its old foundational issues
and its secondary issues.
And then its foundational issues are
compartmentalized
into 2 parts.
The first,
saying that and this is the definition of
the and definitions of of those
that say that in the Hanafis also.
These
for the most part
are related to language.
So the axiom.
That's a principle.
Then he says
and then whatever else is similar to that.
Here's better if there's no comma.
Because
if you think about and
is not
that's why I think I told you guys,
Imam
And I think Imam Ashashi,
Yashikha Amar mentions this in his
that
these are
by necessity part of
but if you think about
is not
in the sense of of what it
is.
Definitely
is
and is not part of Usulofirk,
but it is
the natural outcome of Usulofirk.
According to the majority,
like al Baydawi's definition,
Sorry, the minority.
This definition is definition of the minority.
Majority of Sunnis they say
Right?
They don't talk about
They don't talk about all that. But they
say that all that is like a natural
outcome of this process. Right?
So that's the first.
So that's why he gives you these examples.
He mentions that, you know, for the most
part,
is Dalalatul al Fafaf walqawaid al lati taqum
alahadhiautanfidi
haadi al adillah.
It has a
infinite number of applications.
One time I asked Sheikh doctor
from from Libya.
Is there a limit to?
He said no.
In fact, until the end of times, people
gonna be extracting
new.
If I have a question for you, if
if I were to think about the the
the Diana of each of these, we said
one is Amal
and and the other one is Adela, which
is the, you know,
the.
How do they so if if you if
both of them were represented as circles,
right, are they are they how do they
interact? Are they are they is it like
a Venn diagram?
Or is one sort of encompassing the other?
Because the the has to use the to
generate the.
Right. He has to so in order for
him to come with the or he
has to say
He has to use all that in order
to
create, if you will, I'm saying it metaphorically,
the ruling. So the relationship is almost like
the ingredients and the chef.
Right? So o sort of feels like the
ingredients.
The chef is the faqih.
That's why it's said, you know,
Imam Abu Hanifa used to say,
like,
you're you're the doctors, we're the prescribers.
The one who
implements
this theory
to answer questions and generate rulings.
The is like the referee.
The is like the player.
Or the is the coach.
Falqi is the player.
Of course, in the time of Madec and
Bukhary, they were both.
But it's not because scholarship is not strong
now.
This is a mistake that the modern Muslim
mind makes which is colonized.
The number of juziyat that Muslims are dealing
with now far outnumber the juziyat that they
had to deal with.
This notion that scholars are no good and
scholars are stupid,
the pace of the world
is so much more faster. And so there
has to be a way as we think
about firq in the future
that answers can be generated in a reliable
trustworthy way.
And the mistake of some even
hyper traditionalists
who say there's, you know, no hope for
ichthihad.
We should teach for
There should be a curriculum,
not
of course,
But
Of course. We we should teach for this.
The Shias, they do a great job of
doing this.
We don't.
Right? And and it's sometimes given into this
idea of not appreciating the fact that no,
no, we have grateful now, We
have very knowledgeable,
Muftitaki,
for example,
very knowledgeable people,
right? But the sheer number of
challenges
far outweighs because of mass communication itself.
The pressure on the is
very different
than say the types of pressure those people
had to face.
Khalas, this is a mistake people make.
They they came out of,
like really came out of also. They're the
outcome of also.
He then had a Joab
Meaning
it cannot be opposed by other evidences.
So those conditions of the Dalil is how
you answer me, said, no, man. You can't
you can't use something that's mansuk
because one of the conditions
of a daleel is it's mustamiran,
not mansukhan.
So here you see the relationship between. That's
why I say Namoolani, he says, alleti yata
was salubihah.
Almushtehidu
ilaamada
And Allah Adhaq
like in Aqul
So we see now the role of these
qawaid is to allow us to achieve
the correct ruling.
Unfortunately, many Muslims perhaps like that young woman
that or that older woman or that man
that may ask that question,
they're completely
unaware of this important relationship.
Contingent on. We're
not talking about now and
Infinite relationships.
Like
this, like this, like this, they all go
to the same dad.
That's what it it is it is it
possible for us in in a further session
to to to ask you questions about the
material in this, history section?
We can.
We can. Yeah. Because I'm going I ran
through most of it. Maybe a few more
pages, but at some point, maybe I don't
know. Do do you have any questions about
this stuff? It's all about the manage and
And have you know the school of Madina
and the school of Kufa and and whatnot?
Well,
we can do it.
Okay.
Because he went into a lot of detail
on this. He did like a good job.
He says, like, a lot of interesting stuff
about them. A lot of people don't pay
attention to.
And even he gets, like, way into, like,
later something he did good, he goes, like,
into the later years.
Okay.
Earlier, Yani.
Sorry, Talatan. I'm not gonna do that word.
Which word? Talatan
yani from time to time. This like this.
Sometimes
Oh, okay.
From Fatara.
Mhmm. A time period. So Fatara 10 some
some time
period, every
sometime other times,
it corrected him.
Why is he saying
be,
sahi another,
You have to
understand this and study this well.
The fruit of this book is good, man.
And he doesn't
waste a lot of time
in philosophical
stuff that people
are not able to understand easily.
He takes you to the guts of functional
because I have a class I have to
go to now.
