00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			Welcome back to our explanation of our
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			which now the section on the
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			clarifiers. There's some difference of opinion about this
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			word, what it means within the context of.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			Does it mean the action
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			of clarifying? Does it mean dalil or does
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			it mean?
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:27
			And therefore, you find some criticism of what
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			Imam Al Haramain does and his his description
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:30
			of it, but
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			just FYI. Right? Just have that in your
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			mind.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			Imam Al Haramay says,
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42
			to push something out, to evict a
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			to evict something
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			from a state of confusion
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			to a state of clarity.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:56
			Is a loft which gonna take the from
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			the state of Ishkal to a state of
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			clarity.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			In relationship to what it signifies.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			What we're going to talk about now though
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			are like what are the different types of
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			clarifiers? We're gonna mention just a few of
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			them. Number 1 is
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			that a clarifier can be through a statement
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			whether from Allah
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:19
			or
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			from the prophet
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			So we go back to when
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			they said to say
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			ask Allah you clarify for for us what
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:31
			it is.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			Then later on it says,
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			Allah says this kind of this
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			color, this hue, which makes people happy when
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:44
			they see it. Here
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			you notice something very interesting in the verse.
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:54
			3 parts to the description because when you
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:55
			teach people
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			when you teach people you better make sure
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			that you make it very clear for them.
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			Prophet's job is to make things clear. Here
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			we say Allah
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			There's no excuse, man.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			It's called itnab and balava,
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:14
			embellishment
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			because the Bayan here needed to be embellished.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:18
			They needed to understand.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:19
			Not always.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			But sometimes, here we can appreciate something people
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			involved in dawah and lab and study usulul
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			fiqh, and they're out here trying to clarify
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			things for people. Are they actually following this
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			system or just to under Hawa?
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:31
			SubhanAllah, there is a lot to learn, man.
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:33
			A lot to learn out there.
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			Also, the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa'arihi wasallam
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:40
			he clarified
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			certain things which are Bujmal with his words.
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:49
			Like so many Imam al Shafi mentions like
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:50
			a large number of them in the Risara.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			The second
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:58
			The
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			The second is clarification with actions.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			It's related to the prophet
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:09
			How do you pray?
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:18
			How do you how do you pray? How
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20
			do you make Hajj? Here we see the
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:24
			complete misguidance of the submitters group. They have
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			no idea what they're talking about. The complete
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:28
			misguidance of the Ahmadiyyas, the complete misguidance misguidance
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:29
			of NOI
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:30
			who are
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:32
			who who really
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:33
			locate
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:36
			the role of the prophet in a way
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:37
			which desalitizes
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			and desacritizes him.
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			For some, the process to us is something
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:44
			sacred. His role is sacred.
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			In the same of the Quran you find
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:01
			in the hadith. So, how do you accept
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			the of the Quran? You don't accept
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			the of hadith.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			You see the contradiction here?
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:10
			Not in all but imini.
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			Sometimes they'll say, but Hafsih was weak in
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:15
			hadith. Hey. May have been weak in hadith.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17
			It started this, but he wasn't weak in
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:17
			Quran.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:19
			Just because someone is weak in one science
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			doesn't mean they're weak in another, but he
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:24
			wasn't weak. For example, say that Imam Hafs
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:25
			because of his character
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			but because of his academic qualifications
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			in narrating hadith. It's very different.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:33
			So he's someone who is honest and has
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:35
			integrity. It's just not his thing.
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:37
			Pay attention. Don't get caught up in this
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:38
			fitna.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			People out here talking about stuff, they have
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:42
			no idea what they're talking about and they
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			unravel the deed like they unraveled their shoes
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			or unravel a present and people will be
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:49
			lost. You have to be very careful, man.
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			Always push in, always push
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:56
			in, and think deeper. So the submitters
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			completely misguided people.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			Same thing with the Ahmadi movement, same thing
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			with NOI
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			in the sense of their because
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala in the Quran there's
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:12
			numerous verses which
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			are and they are clarified to be act
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:16
			by the actions of
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:21
			like a salah, like Hajj.
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:23
			Pray
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:26
			like you see me pray.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			Take from me the rights of Hajj.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			The third
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			The clarification happens with an action or a
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:43
			word or multiple actions or multiple words we
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			say about the first is the second is
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			So the first is to clarify the rest
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:50
			are just to emphasize
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:54
			what needs to be clarified. We have texts
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:54
			like that
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			related to the Hajj and
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:00
			Umwara. Next time I'm going to start to
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			talk about a few of the axioms related
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			to this idea that are not mentioned in
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:05
			the text of Imam Al Harami
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:08
			that are very important in dua and Muslim
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:08
			thought
