Speaker 1 discusses the importance of interpretation in sharia rules and warns of common misunderstandings. They give an example of the use of "ft" in Islam, stating that it refers to the benefits of fasting for everyone, not just the rich and poor.

			It's very important that before we share ideas,
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:03
			we make sure they're rooted
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			in foundational
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			rules of interpretation. I'll give you a very
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:09
			common example. People say that the purpose for
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:10
			fasting is so we can feel like they're
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			underserved.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:15
			That goes against the foundations of the Sharia.
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			We have an, a very important principle when
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:17
			it comes to any
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			any any time Allah says, oh, you who
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			believe. That says
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			that the wisdom behind any command is something
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:27
			that benefits all the believers, all the Muslims,
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:28
			not just the rich, not just the poor,
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			not just the Arab, not non Arab, everybody
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			because Allah is just. Because if you say
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			that's the wisdom and fasting, then what do
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			the poor people, the underserved people get from
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:35
			fasting?
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			Served people get
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			from fasting?
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43
			The Allah of fasting is mentioned in the
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			verse taqwa,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			to be beautiful
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			and obedient to Allah.
