Wanna be moderate? And who doesn't wanna be
moderate? Progressive. This sounds like a very nice
word. Yes. And what's wrong with me being
progressive? No. Which is we not be progressive
as Muslims?
Obviously, we know that that's not what they
mean by it.
If you can touch on what they mean
by it and and Islamically how we go
about it and how we fit this all
into No. I I don't care.
Why will I sit here explain something that
doesn't exist in my deenah?
Beautiful. In the deenah and Allahih the moderate
Muslim like come on. In the deenah and
Allahih Islam. The deen in the side of
Allah SubhanaHu Wa Ta'la is Islam. Which means
total submission surrendered to the word of Allah
SubhanaHu Wa Ta'la. Not to your ideas.
Allah the deen of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
is not about I think, I guess, I
believe, I feel.
Yeah. And I don't want to say a
few things that can be again misunderstood but
I want you to really reflect over what
I'm saying. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sometimes doesn't
care really about what you feel
because sometimes waking up for fajr is difficult,
it's not easy. Is it easy? Do we
fly over, you know when we hear the
adhan? It's difficult and that is that is
what Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is trying to
observe here. Is that when He impose on
you certain tasks,
even though they are difficult,
you have to struggle.
You have to do some effort in order
to
experience the sweetness of
the outcome.
The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
couldn't read his own name. True or false?
He couldn't read his own name. And the
first ayah that was revealed upon him was
iqra.
Didn't Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala know that he
couldn't read or write? So why would He
tell him Iqra?
So
the the command is upon Allah. That's his
job And your job is to find out
how to apply that command, how to execute
that command. Don't question Allah.
He does not He's not to be questioned
about what He does.
You will be questioned about you. Why you
didn't respond to His call? So there is
no such thing as moderate and
medium and x large Islam. There is only
one Islam. I hope you don't
