Taught to us by Imam Al Adam Abu

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

Hanifa who said

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

The most knowledgeable person is the one who

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

is knowledgeable of the differences amongst the scholars

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

because that person is gonna keep the unity

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

of the Muslims and understands that these are

00:00:14 --> 00:00:17

differences which are allowed and natural and not

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

use it to create a new group or

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

to divide or weaken the ranks of the

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

community.

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

We take this from the important hadith found

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

in Buhari that the prophet prophet

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

No. None of you should pray until you

00:00:29 --> 00:00:30

reach.

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

The Sahaba on the way, the time of

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

Asar started to go out. So some of

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

them, they prayed, and others said, no. No.

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

No. We're gonna stick to the letter of

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

the law. The prophet did not

00:00:40 --> 00:00:41

correct either of them.

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

In fact, it was as though both of

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

them were correct. And we learned from this

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

hadith that issues of

00:00:47 --> 00:00:49

and allow differences. And this is the majority

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

of the issues of Islam. So be careful

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

when you're fighting and arguing to make sure

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

you're not fighting and dividing over issues where

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

differences are allowed.
