So Imam Arazi rahi mohullah,
it's enough for us to mention
that sayna Imam al Suyuti,
in his important poem, Imam Assuti has a
very important book called
al Mujaddiddeen. Does the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa
a'alehi wasallam, he said in the hadith
related by Imam Ibrahim Hajah, this is a
good hadith
sahiyah. That the prophet said that Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala will sinned at the beginning of
every century.
Manujadidlahadeena,
somebody that will revive Islam
for the Muslims.
We'll we'll we'll bring the Muslims back to
the deen.
And Imam And
he mentions like he starts with Sayna Amr
Al Khattab radiAllahu anhu, then he goes to
all the others,
Al Baqirani,
Imam Ahmed, others.
Sayna Imam al Ashari.
He says
He said the 6th
because Imam Sufi dies in the 10th century.
Imam Fakhruddin Arasi dies 505 after Hajj al.
So between them is, like, a considerable amount
of time,
but he mentions him as the 6th.
Mujad did of Islam. It's Imam Mus'eighty.
That that takes me to the the the
third point. When you read something bad about
somebody, oh, this person is bad or this
imam is bad,
what what you wanna do is take all
of
the things people have said about them.
Don't just rely on one statement that's negative
or- just take
and then weigh them
so that you don't make zul on that
that dead person.
Well,
also,
imam
al Ghamiri.
Imam al Ghamiri dies around Ashafi, around 984
after Hijri.
He
says
He said it is authentically narrated
that Allah
at the beginning of every century was
sin.
He will send somebody that will revive the
religion.
In his poem also Al Qamiri,
he says, rahimuhuallahu
ta'ala
wassari suhum al razi,
that the 6th is Imam Al Razi. Imam
he mentions that Imam Al Razi wrote a
book, a book about stars and magic and
astrology, and,
you know, you can use the stars for
all kind of stuff
and all this garbage. You'll find people say,
like, he was he was,
he led people
astray. He was misguided.
He was this. He was that. He was
this. He was that.
Imam Ibtemia,
he attributed this book to Ar Razi and
then people began to make taqreed. This is
a problem of of uqalid.
We don't need people to be we need
people to be Muqalids and fiqh for the
most part because they don't have alat or
ishtihad.
But to be mukalids
in criticizing
and
attacking people,
no.
Don't be a muqalid in that.
Be be careful.
That's why sometimes a dehabi says
if such and such said it, then okay.
If such and such said it, okay.
Look at the care
of a Dahabi.
And for example,
Imam
al Suki Tajdine al Suki.
It's about Pati Shafi'i.
He says about Imam al Razi,
he didn't write that book.
In fact, there's a difference of opinion if
he even wrote it.
After Atajdina Subki
comes, Imam ibn Hajar al Asqalani,
Rahimullah, who dies 857 after
hijri before Su'udi.
Before Su'udi's death.
Imam Ibn Hajar,
he says, I looked for this book everywhere
that they attributed to Ar Razi,
and I didn't find it.
So one of our brothers,
Ali, I think his name is Ali Hijani.
He wrote
in a form that I'm on that he
actually found the book.
So I found it.
I opened
it and in the very
front cover
is Arazi's words.
Watch this.
You know what Ar Razi said?
I
am innocent of everything you're about to read
in this
book. The only reason I wrote it is
you know this sheikh. And the is
allowed to learn magic, to learn the evil
of magicians. Ah, there you go. So does
have an asshole in his action?
Absolutely.
Imagine how many people slandered him, man. You
know that guy who wrote a book about
magic, Imam David Blaine, dude. Like, how many
people just went off on him? I saw
this online. People saying things about him because
of this book, that if they found the
and they saw what he wrote, what did
he say in the very beginning? The front
page.
I am free of everything you're about to
read.
The only reason I wrote this book is
so that the ulema
can be aware of evil.
That's why I said, man,
imagine
how many people
people may have slandered
that are not here to defend themselves If
backbiting
if riba happens when the person's alive, what
about the person who's dead in their grave?
So the point
is, and I'm I'm I'm emphasizing this because
this class is not just to read Raul
Salihim. We're trying to lay down kind of
a methodology for you to think. I'm not
perfect. You don't have to buy everything I'm
saying, but you can appreciate the care and
concern.
I saw recently
numerous YouTube clips about me. I could say,
every single one of them is not true.
Somebody said, respond. I said, I'm I'm collecting
a hasanat, bro.
I'm a FTX dem cas good deeds, bro.
Just give it to me.
And also how do you respond to something
that's so ridiculously off? Like how would Razi
respond to this?
See, you guys were saying this about me
for centuries. You never took the chance to
go read what I actually wrote in the
front page. I put it there in the
front page to protect myself.
But
will get us caught up in bad things.
That doesn't also mean imam Razi is perfect,
of course not, but why? Who's perfect?
