Welcome back to our explanation of the war
cut
of Imabul Juwani. We've been talking about Al
Mujmal 1 Mubayyah. Right? Mujmal, the ambiguous. We
talked about what that is, the causes of
it. There's no need to go into it
again, but the idea of being mixed and
being abundant like Al Jumlah, a sentence. And
the Quran, those disbelievers say, why isn't the
Quran said,
like all at once, everything together all at
once.
Well, Mubayin is the thing that clarifies
the. There's a great axiom. You are not
allowed to use a for evidence. Why? Because
that there's a great axiom
to
to expect people to be obligated to do
something that's impossible
beyond their their their ability, that's impossible for
us to believe about the Sharia.
SubhanAllah.
So to ask someone to do something which
is beyond their capacity
is impossible for us to imagine in the
Sharia.
So asking someone to act on a would
be
because it's not clear.
The job of the prophet
is to clarify the Mujmal
in the Quran.
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. That's why Imam Shafi calls
it a bayan and in a risala.
So
he says
Right? That the ambiguous text is the one
that that is in need of clarification.
He gives the example
and so that a a divorced woman should
wait 3.
The word
write this down. In the future, we're gonna
go through this in detail.
It's called
from the same word as shirk
to associate partners with God, but here
means that a word has a number of
meanings associated
with it. Those meanings could even be opposites.
So
he
says
says this in in his explanation
that it carries the meaning of purification administration.
These are opposites.
In one word,
both meanings are shared in that word. That's
why it's called.
It's very important. Then it actually says,
And
he explains it. He said,
and this is called because
of the association
of purification,
administration to the world.
SubhanAllah.
So he says, well, well, well, well, well,
well,
to take something.
Just take something from a state of ambiguity
and confusion
to clarity
and
uh-uh
uh-uh
obviousness.
So you take it from the state of
being confusing and ambiguous
to a state of apparent
and
clear.
That's Al Bayan.
And it gives the example
from
means to make something.
To make it clear.
1 Mubayin. So then he moves from talking
about al Mujmal
to defining al Bayan to talking about Allahaf
al Mubayin.
Allahu Akbar. Man, this is very important.
The word
has two meanings in the Arabic language outside
of our
scientific study. The first is
clarity
to
be raised. That's why I heard from one
of my teachers years ago,
the the of the Jebel,
the the the peaks of a mountain. Why?
Because they're raised and they're clear. So the
word in Arabic language, it
means
any to be clear and to be high.
That's why we say I think last time
I said, actually, it's with I made a
mistake. That the, the the chair that a
couple sits on when they get married is
called.
Menesah.
There's there's a critique of this usage, by
the way, because
it's it's not a mustar.
It's not something we need to even we
don't need to talk about it now, but
in the future we'll get into it.
But the idea is that the meaning,
the meaning is clarity and to be high,
to be raised.
So the sheikh, he says,
what is
He
says
and here mat means
It is a phrase or a word
which
could also potentially be an action of the
prophet will talk about in the future. I'm
just saying words not to make it easy
for you,
but keep that
in
mind.
That only carries one meaning.
Meaning, it is immutable.
Its meaning is definitive.
It's not open for HD head. It's not
open for Tetwee.
Tetwee know who Tanzi do who.
It's that wheel is how it was revealed.
I I actually made this for students to
rhyme. It's that wheel, it's interpretation.
It's that wheel is how it was revealed.
Remember that.
So he says
Now he gives the all sort of definition
of noss,
which is a phrase
what does not
carry except
one meaning. Ishjaraq
said 2 or more meanings.
So if you think about this,
the is gonna be the the
is gonna be the
and so on and so forth. And we're
gonna go through all 8 of those in
the future. So you have it locked in,
and it's very clear for you.
He says,
and we all know who knew who that
Zade was.
Not a different Zade, not another Zade. No.
That particular Zade, we know who that Zade
is. That's
not. Here he's usually in the language.
I want to talk to you before we
get into this war
that within the Islamic
academic
canon or tradition, the word Nelson is used
in 3 ways.
First two
are sort of something that you should know
and the third one is what we wanna
focus on in Usuri studies. So the first
is a nus
is
a love
anything from the book in sunnah is called
nus
doesn't mean what we're understanding here.
The second is
The opinion
of 1 of the imams on a ruling,
we say
it's called nos.
The 3rd
usage of the word nos within the Islamic
sort of academic canon is
is what
directs us to a meaning which is definitive.
It's not open for interpretation.
It's not open for ishtia.
Sheikh Mohammed Al Hassan did do.
He said that the number of nos from
the Quran and Sunnah total are like 7%.
Shows you the ports of
shows you the importance of engaging the academic
tradition
in a very aggressive way,
a way that's motivated but should be rooted.
But the point is that's what we're concerned
with here.
That which directs to a definitive meaning, an
immutable meeting.
What is the rooting for acting on a
nurse
if it's agreed upon?
Sheikh, doctor Mahmoud Abdulhaman Abdulman, and he says,
it's obligatory to act on it.
And it's not allowed to
leave it.
Sharayin accepts whether Sharia approved
evidence
or permission.
And that last part I added for clarity.
So the sheikh,
he says, who said earlier, it is said
that Naus is its interpretation
is its revelation.
AM. Then example he gave from the Quran
and let them fast 3 days. 3 is
33 is not.
That's what Imam Ibda Hajjabi says in his
about
that's what was taught to us at the
as hard as.
We
does not accept interpretation. We're gonna talk about
interpretation in the future because it's so important,
especially in the west when interpretations have gone
wild.
Because on its own
as it was sent, it's understood.
The word
is mushtaq. And this is where Imam Haramis,
people criticise him because they said this is
is is more that
for the end user is to *
is to
* minha. I can't I'm
it's not our our time to talk about
it. It's not the must start basically. Well,
who I was stuck on men men,
not salty, and a rosy, well, who will
Corsi.
And now he goes back to the meaning
of what is
because it is raised amongst above it sticks
out
in its implications and its meanings above other
texts.
In its understanding
without having to think about it. You have
to think about it. So we'll stop here.
We're going to talk some more about
next time.
