[0:00]audhu billahi min as-shaytan ar-rajim bismillah r-rahman r-rahim al-hamdu lillahi rabbil alameen

[0:08]wa sallahu ala sayidina muhammadin wa ala and by honey blonde salli

[0:12]ala muhammad wa ala muhammad respected brothers and sisters assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

[0:19]we start our 'soul al-kafi discussion this evening by examining tradition to

[0:26]point nineteen point 21 on page 390 of our book this hadith

[0:34]is attributed to an imam ali abdullah saleh ali salam salary Julin

[0:39]Abbar abdullah alayhis-salam a man as al imam Assad up the following

[0:44]question r8 in karna kadar Ikeda by a colonel qaddafi ha the

[0:54]Imam says the the person's asking the imam give me your opinion

[0:59]tell me about your right your opinion if we have these circumstances

[1:04]then what would the fatwa be what was what should I do

[1:13]in such a circumstance legal detail about Islam he's asking the Imam

[1:16]so he's saying to the Imam give me your opinion is this

[1:23]a positive question that this man asked the Imam a man goes

[1:27]to the Imam he tells him give me your opinion about the

[1:32]seagull matter is that a good thing to ask or no trick

[1:39]the trick question right you would think yeah there's what's wrong with

[1:42]it he's going to the Imam and he's asking give me your

[1:45]opinion but the Imam wants to prove an important point so the

[1:53]Imam lightly rebukes him for how he phrased his question the Minari

[2:00]sallam tells him man stop be silent don't ask a question like

[2:04]that why my Egypt took a fee he mention in faha rasool

[2:11]allah salallahu alayhi wa laa LAAS Naaman era ate a fish a

[2:13]he says whatever answer I give you is from the prophets of

[2:18]Allah Allahu Allah we're not amongst those group of people who give

[2:21]their opinion we're not from that party the party of my opinion

[2:26]is this and my opinion is that we're not from that party

[2:30]now the Imam Ali Saddam was not reprimanding this person and telling

[2:36]him you're not a good person the Imam was sending a powerful

[2:43]message when it comes to the religion of Allah it's not an

[2:47]area where anybody inserts their opinion even I the Imam of a

[2:54]debate I don't give my personal opinion even less or Allah does

[2:57]not get of his opinion everything is a revelation from Allah keep

[3:00]that in mind now the Imam said this at a time when

[3:05]there were other leaders of schools of thought who were giving their

[3:08]opinions like abu hanifa he would clearly state in fact he was

[3:15]known as being from Madras atella II the school of opinion my

[3:18]opinion is this my opinion is that my opinion is this my

[3:24]opinion is that the Imam says no there's no room for this

[3:26]in the school of a debate having said that I have a

[3:31]question for you my dear brothers and sisters today you go to

[3:34]the scholars and Miraj even and you ask them tell me about

[3:40]your opinion about this legal matter don't we ask the maraj for

[3:43]their opinions and their fatwas but an imam as-sadiq seems to be

[3:49]condemning that and rejecting that how would you address that yes brother

[3:59][Music] so one answer is when the presence of an infallible imam

[4:13]connected to revelation through the prophet connected to a last panel to

[4:17]allah then it makes no sense to ask anyone else just ask

[4:21]the imam he tells you the position of a las panettone or

[4:24]as during the labor during the occultation we not have direct access

[4:30]to ask the Imam Mahdi's sitter so we have no choice but

[4:32]to refer to the scholars and get their opinions but see the

[4:38]Imam the problem with this answer is the Imam is still rejecting

[4:42]opinions whether there is an imam or there's no Imam nobody has

[4:47]the right to give their opinion so what our scholars doing then

[4:52]maraj don't think of their opinion it's off of sources can you

[4:58]expand that a little bit that's a very good point when we

[5:11]say my dear brothers and sisters that we do take a lead

[5:14]of scholars we follow scholars that is not really an accurate term

[5:23]we say this magazine right it's a figure of speech we don't

[5:28]literally follow scholars you follow who you follow allah the prophet and

[5:31]animate their the object of your tech elite you follow them we

[5:38]don't really follow the scholar but then what do we do with

[5:45]the scholar what's his role exactly the scholar is just a reference

[5:49]point that tells you here's my understanding of what the Imam said

[5:52]it's not my opinion I don't have the right to insert my

[5:59]opinion anywhere but using my expertise and experience my understanding of Quran

[6:03]and hadith and the seal of the Prophet and the Imams is

[6:04]that this is the position of an imam of Sodom this is

[6:08]the position of rasulullah this is the position of Allah in the

[6:10]Quran my experience that's the conclusion I arrived at but it's not

[6:17]my opinion in fact if you ever see a scholar giving his

[6:21]personal opinion in an illegal manner in a religious matter not you

[6:26]know some non-religious matter in a legal manner that's a red flag

[6:32]and in doing so it's condemned by the Imams of any debate

[6:35]the Imam was so sensitive about this he's telling look I don't

[6:38]give my opinion everything is from the and the profit gets everything

[6:46]from Allah let alone scholars so just keep that in mind that

[6:49]when you're following a scholar you're not really following their opinions you're

[6:54]just using them as experts who tell you what they see from

[6:58]the hadith what they see from the Quran I'll give you a

[7:04]very small example let's say the answer to the legal case that

[7:07]you are experiencing is in this book on this page on page

[7:13]392 do is read it you have trouble with your vision you

[7:20]cannot read that night so you try to read the page I

[7:22]can but I have a friend who can read so I tell

[7:27]my friend read for me this prescription here read it for me

[7:30]can you if your friend reads it for you and you go

[7:36]off by that what did you do here did you follow the

[7:43]opinion of your friend no not really you just use your friend

[7:45]as a vehicle to know what's on this page that's exactly what

[7:50]a scholar does nothing more and has no right to do nothing

[7:53]more now there are conditions your friend has to be trustworthy your

[7:56]friend can act as if he's reading and he's reading something else

[8:00]so you need to go to a trusted friend you need to

[8:03]go to a friend who knows how to read properly if your

[8:05]friend is Chinese and this is Arabic how is he gonna help

[8:10]you as an example right let's say you don't read Arabic or

[8:13]you just come to America and you go to the doctor and

[8:18]the prescription is in English you don't read English let's say you

[8:21]just came you're an immigrant so you tell your friend how do

[8:24]you translate this for me well if this is a sensitive prescription

[8:27]a very important prescription make sure your friend is trustworthy number two

[8:31]they know how to translate they know Arabic they know English right

[8:37]that's the idea with the merger that's the same exact idea someone

[8:40]who's trustworthy someone whom he can trust their expertise and experience in

[8:45]telling you what's in this page what's in Quran what's in the

[8:49]seer of the Prophet that's all and the Imam makes this very

[8:52]clear in this how do you keep that in mind we're not

[8:54]following the manraja and their opinion we're just referring to them as

[9:01]experts who know what's on this page and they're doing their best

[9:05]to communicate that to us so the Imam says we're not amongst

[9:09]that group of people or that party who gives their opinion let's

[9:13]Naaman out of a to fish a beautifully described by the EEMA

[9:19]by the way there's a discussion I don't want to go too

[9:21]deep into this do the Imams have will ayat is surely a

[9:25]year or no do the Imams have the legislative authority to legislate

[9:28]laws and religion or the Imams all they do is just give

[9:34]us the application of the law the law was legislated by Allah

[9:37]passed down through the Prophet maybe not known by a lot of

[9:39]people the Imams takes and takes those laws and they just apply

[9:44]it maybe to new cases that we were not aware of or

[9:48]give us a new perspective of that law but can they do

[9:50]they have the right to legislate see our scholars are divided on

[9:55]this issue some scholars believe yes we do have evidence and hadith

[9:58]that the Imams have been authorized by Allah to legislate yes they

[10:02]legislate on behalf of Allah and they know the guidelines but Allah

[10:06]has empowered them to even legislate laws if they wanted to as

[10:12]an example even though other scholars might still have another perspective on

[10:18]how the Imam would be authorized to lift homes right but let's

[10:22]let's use that as an example but there are many Shia scholars

[10:28]who say no our understanding of hadith and this is one of

[10:30]them by the way you could use this hadith as one of

[10:34]their arguments that the Imam never legislates anything remember their mom says

[10:36]look we don't give our opinion that means we don't legislate anything

[10:39]everything is passed down from Rasul Allah from Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala

[10:45]explain the legislation they know best about legislation only they know the

[10:51]depths of allah's legislation but they never legislate and they were not

[10:55]given the authority by Allah to legislate so this is an area

[10:59]where scholars have actually disputed and have different opinions yes everything well

[11:07]that's in the next few ideas we'll examine that just hold on

[11:13]that thought we'll get to that this is page 390 see the

[11:23]argument is intellectually before looking at hadith the Imams are gods Khalifa's

[11:32]on earth they are God's representatives they are of such high status

[11:36]that Allah has pre authorized them to legislate laws when they see

[11:42]fit because they have the knowledge they're infallible they don't make anything

[11:46]personal they're trustworthy so Allah has trusted them with the power to

[11:51]legislate on behalf of Allah intellectual there's no problem intellectually there is

[12:00]no flaw in accepting this idea Allah legislates or a lot can

[12:05]ask one of his represent representatives when we trust whom he's given

[12:08]the knowledge whom he's given the infallibility Allah says you legislate in

[12:12]these areas as you see fit there's no intellectual problems they're an

[12:17]intellectual problem what it what is the intellectual problem he says my

[12:31]burden was to reveal the messages to explain what so the scholars

[12:37]who believe in the legislative legislative authority of the Imams and whaddaya

[12:42]to Sharia and hadith like that in which the Prophet Sal Allahu

[12:47]Allahu Allah says my role was to deliver the message your role

[12:50]Ali ibn ABI Talib is to explain it or the to wield

[12:56]the proper explanation of it these scholars will say this hadith does

[13:00]not necessarily negate imam ali's authority to legislate his primary role was

[13:06]to explain and protect what the prophet brought that's his primary role

[13:10]but a secondary role in some areas he will legislate but does

[13:14]not negate that because the Prophet is talking about the main role

[13:20]that Imam Ali had and the proof is the Prophet he would

[13:23]explain the religion to guarantee the Prophet is not saying i strictly

[13:27]bring the message you strictly explain no the Prophet did a lot

[13:33]of explaining to but his main mission was to bring the message

[13:36]Imam Ali's main mission was to protect the message it for message

[13:41]from deviation and to explain it along with the other imams but

[13:43]this does not negate the fact that they also engaged in some

[13:47]sort of legislative authority yes the legislative authority did not define their

[13:51]role in their movement but it could happen sometimes so that that

[13:55]would probably be one of their responses in any case I don't

[14:02]see there is any any intellectual problem and having the Imam legislate

[14:05]on behalf of Allah remember John behalf of God Allah gave them

[14:11]the knowledge so when you have knowledge and you're infallible and God

[14:14]has given you wisdom what's wrong if you legislate on behalf of

[14:18]God but the question is does the hadith support this or no

[14:23]scholars are divided into two camps some say yes they found evidence

[14:25]others say no we don't have a sahih hadith that clearly states

[14:28]the Imam had the legislative authority this hadith if we wanted to

[14:32]put this hadith in one of these camps which one would it

[14:36]support that they don't have the legislative authority because they never give

[14:39]their opinion they never lie just like everything is passed down to

[14:42]them from rasoolullah sallallahu alehiwassallaam 20 on page 395 a very very

[14:51]important hadith this hadith is attributed to an imam ali abdullah saleh

[14:57]ali salaam the Imam says innallaha table arakawa to Allah and gsella

[15:06]Phillip or I need to be on a coalition Allah has revealed

[15:10]in the Holy Quran a clarification or explanation of everything hot towel

[15:21]ah he might Erica Lucia and yo Jalil a hill about Allah

[15:26]has not left anything out in this book everything that humanity needs

[15:33]is an operon Allah did not spare anything from this holy book

[15:39]Atalaya Studley our Abdul Nia pool so that no one on the

[15:43]day of judgment or even in this world has the excuse to

[15:46]say lok anahatha unzila from quran allah wa cadenza olofi that way

[15:51]nobody has an excuse to say well had this been revealed in

[15:58]the Quran would that such-and-such had been sent down in the Quran

[16:02]except that Allah had sent it so no one can come and

[16:06]say there's something left out from the Quran there are things that

[16:09]the Quran has no position on everything is in the Quran let's

[16:14]analyze this very very important hadith and there are several perspectives here

[16:21]or several angles number one this hadith and also verses in the

[16:27]Quran because the Imam remember when he uses language like that one

[16:33]way to know scholars have this beautifully mentioned one way to know

[16:36]if the hadith is correct even without looking at the chain just

[16:39]compare it to the spirit of Quran and the language it uses

[16:45]so when the Imam says everything has been revealed in the Quran

[16:49]and in it there is an explanation for everything the Imam is

[16:52]just mirroring a verse in the Quran to be on own to

[16:56]be on own or to be on ooh to be a new

[16:59]fear to be on oh cool ishe allah says in the quran

[17:05]that everything is contained in this book in many many verses Allah

[17:09]confirms this fact with different language so right after that you know

[17:13]this sentence is perfectly compatible with the Quran in fact it's just

[17:19]paraphrasing that verse how is everything contained in the Quran let's face

[17:25]it the Quran is 604 pages in this edition that I'm carrying

[17:36]it's 600 pages there's million things to know how is everything contained

[17:41]in the Quran yes words can be explained differently you could derive

[17:55]a lot of information from each verse yes you you have the

[18:03]right idea yes brother one verse can apply to thousands of situations

[18:08]and cases if you look at viral Quran the apparent linguistic meaning

[18:15]of the Quran obviously it's limited there are X number of words

[18:22]in the Quran in 600 pages so if you just stop at

[18:31]the apparent meaning of the Quran which is just a linguistic meaning

[18:34]you give it to any Arab person what do they understand from

[18:36]these Arabic words obviously not not everything is contained in the Quran

[18:40]so that's not the meaning of these verses and hadiths so we

[18:46]know that the Imam or the Quran before that is referring to

[18:50]a deeper level the Quran has multiple stages of existence and that's

[18:57]the beauty of this book for instance the Quran has the verbal

[19:02]existence what's the verbal existence of Quran dr.

[19:07]ah remember how was the Quran revealed in a book no the

[19:11]Quran was revealed as an oral book then people wrote it but

[19:16]when the Prophet spoke it he spoke it verbally that's the first

[19:21]stage of the Quran the oral verbal existence of it which by

[19:26]the way has an impact the next stage is the written existence

[19:32]when you write something now it acquires a new type of existence

[19:36]right see my speech here has a type of existence you people

[19:39]here in the room you hear it but if somebody writes it

[19:44]on paper it gives it a new dimension right it's a new

[19:49]type of existence now the written and the verbal even though they're

[19:52]the same words but they're different their dynamics is different sometimes you

[19:56]hear a verse from the Quran verbally especially with tear tear or

[19:59]touch weed it changes you in a way that maybe the written

[20:03]does not that's why it's recommended to recite the Quran with 13

[20:08]and an effective sorrowful voice like the Prophet would people would hear

[20:12]and they'd be mesmerized maybe reading it is not the same or

[20:15]sometimes have you here have you heard a captivating speaker when he's

[20:21]speaking up on the pulpit he captures you but those same words

[20:24]if you read them in writing they lose their charisma right so

[20:28]you see how types of existence have different effects I want you

[20:34]to focus on this example because this is key to understanding the

[20:37]layers of Quran you go to a speech to a lecture you

[20:41]have a motivational speaker he's speaking for 15 minutes the way he

[20:48]motivates you who makes you fly over the clouds have you seen

[20:52]motivational speakers like that or have you felt how they move you

[20:59]now if no no I'm far away from that now if you

[21:00]read that same content on a piece of paper does it give

[21:07]you that same impact why it's the same content what did the

[21:10]verbal existence have that the written existence did not have emotions tone

[21:19]charisma of the speaker see all these are factors that you will

[21:26]not find maybe in a book so you see how different modes

[21:28]of existence come with extra effect so the quran has a verbal

[21:35]existence it has a written existence it has a mental existence and

[21:40]intellectual existence that in itself is something deeper then once you ascend

[21:45]that and you go to the low hand my food where Allah

[21:50]has contained the Quran in a preserved tablet the Quran in the

[21:54]low hell my food is a reflection of the universe according to

[22:00]some hadiths everything in the universe is stored in that Perron have

[22:06]you seen companies that specialize in in databases like everything on these

[22:12]websites or network or you know addresses are stored in a database

[22:17]now that database is very small it could be a hard drive

[22:24]but you see how all that information is squeezed into it if

[22:28]I want to simplify this idea Allah has squeezed the entire universe

[22:37]and its reality and meaning in the Quran but not in the

[22:41]switz inform not in these letters and its actual existence in local

[22:44]muffled these letters are just symbols that reflect that point to that

[22:50]have you seen coding programming and coding zero one zero zero one

[22:55]back in the day that's how it was I don't know how

[22:57]it is right now well what are these codes 0 1 0

[23:00]and 0 1 they mean something maybe 0 1 0 1 means

[23:04]green green dot appears on the screen but if you add another

[23:06]0 1 it becomes red depending on how the programmer coded it

[23:12]right see the Quran has a beautiful meaning you read it you

[23:16]understand it that's just one surface of it every word in the

[23:19]Quran every letter is a code that points you to one aspect

[23:25]of the universe one aspect of reality one part of God's knowledge

[23:28]but you need to have the key to decode it if you

[23:33]have the key to the codes of the Quran you have all

[23:38]the knowledge out there in the universe the prophets of Allah Allahu

[23:41]Alem was endowed with this ability and some scholars believe al farofa

[23:46]Mutapa those unconnected letters Alif LAAM Meem you know how me mine

[23:53]seemed off they have a lot of meanings and a very basic

[23:55]level Allah saying look Humanity I'm challenging you with simple letters you

[24:00]Arabs and poets don't you compose your poems with simple letters see

[24:07]what I'm doing simple Arabic letters I produce a miracle from it

[24:10]that's at a basic level but at a deeper level Allah saying

[24:15]the Quran is codes yes it's a book of guidance but it's

[24:19]deeper than that it's full of codes now the only one who

[24:22]has that coat is Rasulullah sallallahu anyone and he passed it down

[24:27]to the Imams of and innovates so the Imam he can figure

[24:29]out the answer to every question from the Quran using that code

[24:32]that key given to them by Rasul Allah so the amount of

[24:37]all the knowledge out there because they have a limit kitab they

[24:39]have the knowledge of the book yes that that's part of Kuwait

[24:49]exactly we have we have the Tweed that the Imams of elevate

[24:51]have sometimes they would derive thousands of meanings from one verse well

[24:55]where do they get that from if you study the verse in

[24:59]itself it's not that a parent but the Imams get that through

[25:01]those tools given to them by the prophets or Allah anyone so

[25:08]everything is contained in the Holy Quran but you have to be

[25:11]authorized by a lot to know how to decode it I as

[25:15]a layperson I don't have the right to go and decode the

[25:17]inner meanings yes I can study the apparent meaning but to decode

[25:22]the Quran and going to tell Allah says no that will only

[25:25]Allah knows it what loss of Hoonah feel and according to mainstream

[25:28]scholars in the you know Wow and their tafseer of the conjunction

[25:35]here yes yes Allah did give us the main legislation but let's

[25:52]say there are new things that happen in society Allah authorized the

[25:56]Imam Allah says in those cases I've authorized you you allegedly I've

[26:00]given you the general legislation the specific you go and legislated Allah

[26:05]can do that there's no intellectual it's well that's what scholars debate

[26:16]there's no scholars will believe in that they what they do have

[26:19]hadith that supports that yeah they will cite some hadith that may

[26:28]confirm that and in one of the sierras of imam hussain ali

[26:30]salon if i can recall the actual wording arrived at to rob

[26:36]this is I think the first Xia remote lock of Imam Hussein

[26:39]which is a Sahara which I believe a sheikh sadiq narrates in

[26:44]ozr at juarez assalamu alayka Haritha this is the seventh zrv man

[26:49]for cinema fatiha Jeana the book of supplications if you go to

[26:53]the first one which the chain is a strong one it's stronger

[26:59]than the eyelet water there valid but this one has a stronger

[27:01]chain there's a passage in this zyada which states a rider to

[27:05]rub fema tydirium or ehi tabata alaikum what does duro ambu you

[27:15]take home the CR is very powerful maybe the average person cannot

[27:18]handle its meanings the Sierra says the will of Allah comes to

[27:23]your homes you hadn't bait you the a little bait you authorized

[27:29]the will of Allah then it gets executed what side Jerusalem in

[27:38]a camel kitab and also the legislation in the kitab comes from

[27:44]your homes some scholars may use that and say well this is

[27:48]clear that Allah has given them the legislative authority and also when

[27:50]I attack weeny the natural physical Authority which we'll talk about very

[27:57]you know very soon there is some evidence for it but like

[28:02]I said scholars are split other scholars are saying no that this

[28:07]this passage of the Sierra has a different meaning yes okay that's

[28:16]a good question if everything is contained in the Quran then why

[28:20]do we have a problem with our model kebab statement when he

[28:26]said hispanica table Allah the Book of Allah is enough I don't

[28:29]need the Prophet to write anything for me or hadith look of

[28:32]Allah Zenith there are two ways of answering get one through a

[28:38]Quranic way one through an intellectually as for the Quranic way the

[28:42]Quran itself says ma Atacama rasulu ba who do everything the Prophet

[28:46]tells you take it everything he commands you accept it so the

[28:50]same core understand you know you have to accept what the Prophet

[28:54]says this verse in itself negates the whole logic of hispanica table

[28:59]Allah the Quran says no you follow the Prophet when he tells

[29:06]you you take everything that he says okay intellectually oh madam no

[29:12]kebab for him to say that has buna kitab allah the book

[29:16]of allah is enough for us which book of allah see referring

[29:20]to which existence of these types of existence that we refer to

[29:24]the verbal the rain that's not enough so many things are not

[29:27]mentioned in the apparent meanings of the Quran so many things are

[29:32]left out from their parent meaning so when other says the Book

[29:35]of Allah enough what did he mean by that if he meant

[29:39]the general understanding of all Quran just the lexical linguistic meaning of

[29:43]the Quran that's not enough of course it's how can it be

[29:47]enough when it's only 600 pages you have thousands of laws how

[29:49]can I be enough many things are not even directly mentioned in

[29:54]the Quran so that we know that's an error that's what he

[29:57]meant if he met the deeper layers of Quran with those codes

[29:59]who has them No okay yeah some of it does he have

[30:12]all of it or some of it if he has some of

[30:13]it he has no right to make history what about the rest

[30:17]that he doesn't have so we would say to him if you're

[30:25]referring to the actual existence of Quran that condensed version in the

[30:28]preserved tablet with the whole coding that you need to decode it

[30:31]who has that coding if you have that coding first of all

[30:37]he never claimed all mononym kapap he himself says even women know

[30:40]better than me and suddenly hadith my doing not I'm not here

[30:46]to ridicule this isn't Sonia Hadi he would clearly state that everybody

[30:49]knows more than Ahmad he would be asked about the Quran he

[30:52]would say I don't know clear I don't know and simple verses

[30:55]that even Arabs would understand sometimes you wouldn't so he never made

[31:00]such a claim that I know all the coding of the Quran

[31:05]and nobody made that claim either and there is no support from

[31:09]the Prophet claiming that so he never made that claim and if

[31:12]you were to make that claim it's easily challenged his see Allah

[31:17]has history shows that he didn't know and who gave that coating

[31:20]to him the Prophet never said I gave it to him he

[31:24]never said i sat with the Prophet and he gave me all

[31:25]the coning of the pelant but with Imam Ali we do have

[31:29]Hadees like that from the Prophet and from Imam Ali that he

[31:33]passed to him all the knowledge of the Quran and even in

[31:36]Sunni tafseer in this verse at the end of surah surah al-kahf

[31:42]a billahi Shaheed then vania vania come woman and our animal kitab

[31:45]Imam Ali has animal kitab but we don't have any hadith that

[31:48]says over has animal kitab so that's how we would we know

[31:53]reject this idea of hispanica Tom Allah so this is the first

[31:57]point that the Quran contains all the knowledge number two the source

[32:05]of every belief system we the followers of elevate have the basis

[32:14]for it even if it's brief the basis for it must be

[32:17]in the Quran not in the Quran disqualified and every manager will

[32:23]tell you that so now give me examples of Shia believes that

[32:29]maybe other Muslims ridiculous for and we'll see how the basis in

[32:35]the Quran Imam what is a mama okay a mama is an

[32:39]authority if our discussion of a mama is that who chooses the

[32:46]Imam the Quran says Allah chooses Imams in each are you Kelly

[32:49]nasi ammama wajal na ho a matter if you want the word

[32:55]Khalifa in Nigel Rockefeller the Khalifa what word do you want Allah

[32:58]says I choose them and nobody says Allah chose Abu Bakr even

[33:04]Sunnis don't make that claim see the basis of that is in

[33:07]the Quran another basis for infallibility God align our oh I did

[33:10]idea of Allah mean that in itself proves whoever the Imam is

[33:17]must be infallible it's just one verse other verses to give me

[33:20]other examples when I attack we Nia what's what I attack we

[33:26]Nia so when I officially as legislative authority the Imams whether they

[33:31]can legislate laws or not what's what I attack we Nia it's

[33:37]the natural physical authority to do supernatural things have you heard sometimes

[33:41]the Imams maybe doing some miracles someone were to challenge you you

[33:46]she has believed the Imams have that power show me one verse

[33:50]in the Quran that authorizes this that is the basis for this

[33:53]don't you guys believe in this show me where's the basis for

[33:58]this in the Quran exactly you could just refer to the story

[34:02]of Asif even Berea he was the assistant or the successor of

[34:05]Prophet Sulayman when he asked his aides to summon the huge throne

[34:12]of built is Bathsheba from yemen all the way to palestine the

[34:16]quran says Carla levy anda who Almonte min al-kitab the one who

[34:25]had some knowledge of the book he said I can transport not

[34:28]transport teleport that thrown which was huge you know people could even

[34:35]carry it it was so huge within a blink of an eye

[34:41]today science can achieve that but the quran says as soon as

[34:44]he said that Suleiman saw the throne there how did ISIF achieve

[34:49]that and 1 min al khattab he had some knowledge of the

[34:52]book The Book of Allah the actual Book of Allah so the

[34:56]Quran is clear if you have knowledge of the book you can

[35:00]do supernatural things and as we stated at the end of surah

[35:03]surah allah says pulka fabulae shade and mania obey nakum woman and

[35:06]no animal kita we have many hadith that this is about imam

[35:10]an e he had the full knowledge of the book if you

[35:14]have so much knowledge of the book and you can do something

[35:16]like that imagine having full knowledge of the book see when I

[35:19]take away Nia this is the basis for an Quran give me

[35:25]any other example what are the temporary marriage what's the big where's

[35:30]the basis for it in the quran surah 4 verse 24 Surat

[35:33]Annisa verse 24 Allah is very clear and he even uses the

[35:41]variant of muta feminist MTAC Combahee allah says in that case then

[35:47]give them you know their money their wage or their dowry that's

[35:50]the basis for it in the holy quran yes they could come

[35:54]and argue no we don't know what type of marriage our last

[35:56]talking about here this the point is there's basis for it I

[36:01]have evidence in Quran you cannot disqualify me and say you're inventing

[36:04]something when I have verse 24 in the Quran and my school

[36:10]of thought yes now this has this a temporary marriage has its

[36:13]own conditions and it's a very very deep discussion but at the

[36:16]very basic levels of what I mentions it give me other aspects

[36:19]about Shia school of thought that are controversial we'll see there's a

[36:23]basis for all of it in the Quran yes okay now when

[36:34]it comes to the technical aspects of Salah right like the positions

[36:39]of Salah obviously the Holy Quran tells us about the basics of

[36:47]Salah but it does not go into the details so when it

[36:48]comes to crossing the hand or letting your hands down obviously the

[36:52]Quran does not directly comment on that because the Quran gives us

[36:55]the basis for these acts of Ibadan but it does not tell

[36:59]us how to do them the Quran says follow the Prophet he

[37:01]teaches you so we're not talking about details of Islamic law we're

[37:08]talking about our belief system the basis for it being in the

[37:11]Quran that's what I mean that everything needs to be even in

[37:15]this apparent Quran everything that we she has believed in is in

[37:20]the Quran yes well that's and that's a direct verse in the

[37:24]Quran yes it's it's a clear verse that Sunnis have also accepted

[37:29]there's no controversy about that yes there's conditions when can a man

[37:34]marry those conditions but the law itself is in the Quran Rajah

[37:40]mainstream Shia scholars believed in the return that when the man giri

[37:46]appears there are groups of people Allah will resurrect them and bring

[37:53]them to life people who died years ago some people say this

[37:56]is a bit I this is innovation this is a Jewish idea

[38:00]belief because they do also believe in some form of Raja that's

[38:03]why by the way they historically preferred to be buried in the

[38:06]Holy Land in Jerusalem you know why because they believed when the

[38:14]Raja happens God sends the Messiah and he establishes God's kingdom it's

[38:17]going to be established at the Temple in Jerusalem now they believe

[38:23]those pious Jews who died in their grave they will be rolled

[38:27]under the grave pulled towards Jerusalem so the farther you are the

[38:32]more you're gonna cause friction being dragged into Jerusalem so they prefer

[38:40]to be buried close to Jerusalem because if you're buried imagine being

[38:43]dragged 10,000 miles no I'm serious this is there this is the

[38:49]jewish belief historically they believed in that now wishes also believed in

[38:55]another variation of raja where's their source in the quran is their

[39:03]basis for this in the quran well in that verse alas promising

[39:10]the believers that he's going to give them power in the land

[39:16]but there's no direct reference to the Raja no not that one

[39:21]because that one is also not that clear yes we do believe

[39:29]in some of our hadith any ideas that one has another tuffsy

[39:35]and maybe others don't accept but we want something even Sunnis cannot

[39:47]debate there it's very clear that look at sorting them yes I

[39:52]will get to that but look at so latinum verse 83 open

[39:59]your Quran if you can why oh man - Solomon Coolio met

[40:02]in Fujian Mimmi you can do bi at enough for whom you

[40:11]zone so it's an Emily which is 80 27 verse 83 somebody

[40:16]read the English translation for us a land yeah I think verse

[40:24]number 24 and number 27 verse 83 read the translation for us

[40:28][Music] every nation a party from among those those who reject our

[40:35]communications and on that day did you hear that and on that

[40:37]day will gather a party from every nation so Allah says will

[40:45]resurrect or gather a party from every nation is this partial resurrection

[40:49]or complete resurrection when Allah says will gather from each party from

[40:55]each group or each OMA a party from them will resurrect them

[40:59]is this partial resurrection or total resurrection what it would what does

[41:06]the Quran say see Allah says why oh man actually min could

[41:12]Leo met in Foggia and on the day of judgment from each

[41:17]OMA from each nation will resurrect a group so everybody gets resurrected

[41:22]or a group is being resurrected from each nation so is that

[41:28]partial resurrection or Allah resurrecting everybody partial certain people will be resurrected

[41:35]right the day of judgment the resurrection on the day of judgment

[41:39]is that total resurrection or partial resurrection it's total resurrection so we

[41:43]know it's not talking about the day of judgment and if you

[41:45]have any doubts then go to verse 87 reads verse 87 for

[41:52]us later Allah says and on the day when the trumpet shall

[41:56]blow now Allah is talking about the day of judgment so before

[42:01]that was he talking about the day of judgment no so the

[42:04]Quran is very clear before the day of judgment some dead people

[42:07]are gonna get resurrected not everybody some that's the return see that's

[42:12]the Raja and the Quran and then we also have the story

[42:14]of that Benny from Ben es la e'en where thousands of people

[42:20]died and allow revive them so in previous nations the Quran in

[42:23]surah Baqarah confirms Allah has revived people and in the future this

[42:27]is going to happen that's that's that's a basic logic see the

[42:32]basis for it is in the Quran how about this building shrines

[42:36]on graves like we do for the Imams and prophets where's the

[42:40]sanction in the Quran as hobble calf what's the verse ever knew

[42:45]I lay him bunny onon we will take them then attack he

[42:53]that nilanium message' de see our last talking about what happened when

[42:57]the people of the cave died right and people heard about their

[43:01]story people came they were enthusiastic fascinated when they came some people

[43:07]suggested let's build something over those graves and let's take it as

[43:13]a place of worship not worshipping the grieves but the area is

[43:16]like a mosque it's like a message it an attack that nanny

[43:19]a message that we come here we worship Allah and are reminded

[43:22]of the legacy of these people see a last telling us the

[43:28]story this is no certain calf the cave the cave now notice

[43:34]the following when a lack speaks of a story and he tells

[43:38]us what this group said and Allah does not reject the idea

[43:47]being proposed what is it what is implied its sanction because if

[43:51]their suggestion was Shelke polytheistic in nature Allah would have condemned it

[43:56]like he does in all other verses when the mushrikeen say something

[43:59]wild Allah rejects it unless us no that's false shame on them

[44:04]or they're lying or whatever but Allah sanctions he gives us indirect

[44:09]approval see that's the basis for the shrines on the graves every

[44:15]CI belief and I'm willing to stand by this challenge every single

[44:18]Shia belief I'm not talking about details of laws the beliefs the

[44:22]basis for it at a basic level is in Quran and if

[44:27]there is a belief an important belief that there is no basis

[44:30]for in the Quran we have hadiths that say throw it out

[44:35]the window as simple as that so this is something very important

[44:46]that we should keep in mind if you go to page 408

[44:49]just to summarize what I said go to page 4 or 8

[44:57]can you read that second paragraph for us those who have the

[45:00]book page 408 when I transmit can you read that for us

[45:08]you see how well imam abu jafar alba Qunari salam is making

[45:14]this challenge the Imam says when I transmit a tradition for you

[45:21]any hadeeth challenged me and asked me what is the basis of

[45:24]it in the Book of Allah and I'll show you so the

[45:27]Imams are making this challenge to all schools of thought everything in

[45:31]the school of a debate the basis of it is in the

[45:36]Quran ask me and I'll show you so this is something very

[45:42]important to consider one last thing tabarak you know what tabarak means

[45:47]I'll get to your question what does tabarak me see one thing

[45:52]is to build a shrine but one thing is to seek the

[45:57]blessings from a shrine or have you seen something dedicated to the

[46:00]imams like a flag people touch the flag and they seek the

[46:04]barakah from it well automatically those extremists sunnis are going to accuse

[46:09]us sure sure polytheism was the basis for the emperor on where

[46:13]does the last sanction this on quran nabi Yousif al salam how

[46:17]what happened [Music] Salaam alaikum ya coop alayhis-salam may be a coop

[46:24]the father of Yusuf he had trouble with his vision after years

[46:29]and years of crying and he is a prophet of Allah infallible

[46:32]when prophet Yusuf Ali said I met his brothers and he finally

[46:35]revealed his identity to them and he told them to go back

[46:42]home and bring his parents he gave one of his brothers his

[46:45]shirt that he had worn and because it touched the body of

[46:52]Yusuf it became blessed he told him take the shirt to my

[46:55]father put it on his face Allah will give him back his

[46:59]vision through the buttock of my shirt since we're it's Yousef and

[47:05]that's exactly what happened Fidelma and Jael Bashir when he came with

[47:11]the good news and he put the piece of cloth the shirt

[47:13]on the face of profitable Silla he regained his vision well how

[47:18]did a piece of object fabric have that effect of course Allah

[47:24]is the one who healed him but through that object how is

[47:29]this shirt see Allah sanctions so if someone believes that a lot

[47:34]with the Baraka and the dust of Iman foreseen or something about

[47:39]the shrine of the prophet sallallaahu allah you are or even the

[47:42]cabin someone believes that allah put the buttock in it that's not

[47:45]sure and they believe of course based on evidence from you know

[47:51]hadith is that Chuck that's not sure the basis for is in

[47:54]the product so every aspect of our belief system the basis for

[48:00]it is in the Quran keep that in mind and if sometimes

[48:02]you see others may be challenging our school of thought no these

[48:08]verses very well and tell them I challenge you bring me anything

[48:10]about our school of thought I'll show you where it is in

[48:14]the Quran I'll give you another example and we'll end with this

[48:18]example last week there was the largest gathering of people on earth

[48:22]what was it our wine walk okay some people look at it

[48:29]since Buddha show a basis for all of this I want organic

[48:34]evidence for this urban walk see the details we take from hadith

[48:38]but I'll give you the basis for the urban walk from Quran

[48:44]we have two aspects in the Quran in the urban walk one

[48:48]is the z-ro aspect visiting the grave of the EEMA one is

[48:58]the fortieth the number forty forty days after the martyrdom of imam

[49:02]both of that at a basic level is substantiated in the Quran

[49:08]as the Sierra there are a number of verses that we can

[49:12]take one verse is sha Allah Danika woman you Alan sha Allah

[49:19]anyone who glorifies the symbols of God and anything that reminds you

[49:24]of God that becomes an act of worship when you go to

[49:27]Imam Husain and you remember his values and how he sacrificed for

[49:30]Allah isn't he one of the symbols of Allah my dear brothers

[49:36]and sisters this idea of symbols of God you know if you

[49:39]look at the Quran span Allah how these must some Muslims misunderstand

[49:42]the anti debate school of thought you know what example Allah gives

[49:46]in the Quran for Shia or Allah one is so fine whatever

[49:51]Hills Hills objects objects Allah says these are my signs what else

[49:57]does he give what do people do in Hajj what are they

[50:08]slaughtered Allah says even the animals the sheep which is an animal

[50:12]blood nature's blood allah says these are my signs well how is

[50:16]it the sign of allah what does it remind you you have

[50:20]to look at the symbolism behind it allah says even the act

[50:24]of sacrificing a lamb at the hajj is one of my science

[50:31]or sacrificing a camel how well that in itself we study in

[50:34]the book of Hajj how that happens how slaughtering the hajj is

[50:37]a symbol for slaughtering your Neffs how it reminds you to donate

[50:45]something for the poor see all that symbolism now coming and remember

[50:47]back then animals were dear to people today we don't live with

[50:50]animals with domesticated animals right but back then people would spend an

[50:54]entire year raising those sheep they meant a lot to them unless

[50:59]says no no no let go of this dunya seeing this act

[51:01]reminds you of Allah and instills piety and you makes you a

[51:07]strong person makes your self-sacrificing person even an animal becomes a sign

[51:12]of Allah now suddenly it's shook if I go to the grandson

[51:15]of Rasul Allah who saved this religion for us and I tell

[51:19]you this is the sign up online I'm going there to glorify

[51:22]the Sanwa this is now better innovation imam husain remind you everything

[51:28]about a lot millions of people worshiped Allah because Imam Hussain showed

[51:32]them the way show me a greater symbol after the prophets of

[51:35]allah i rallied an imam hussain ali setup so that at a

[51:40]basic level is founded in the quran if you go for Zee

[51:42]Allah to pay your respect for him and machine and remember his

[51:49]values that Shire and what about the 40th the Quran tells us

[51:54]there's something special about the number 40 the example you mentioned Nabi

[51:58]Musa Allah says we promised Musa forty days in one verse and

[52:05]another verse Allah breaks it down he says 30 then we extended

[52:07]it to 40 o aDNA Musa a Latina Laila 10 watts Maha

[52:14]Bosch fatima me Keturah be are buying a Laila why 40 something

[52:17]special about the number 40 there is more to that Allah a

[52:23]last panel - Allah talks about the human being reaching the age

[52:26]of 40 I think it's in surah al-ahqaf and last panel to

[52:31]other states what was sign an insanity why the day he asana

[52:35]hemella to omou quran wah wah over to kuraha muhammadin wa sallahu

[52:39]the earth owner Shara here's the point Hector in a better I

[52:45]should do until the human see Allah says we've commanded the human

[52:47]being to do to be good with with his parents his mother

[52:52]carried him with difficulty and she delivered him went through labor in

[52:58]difficulty then after that Allah says when he reaches his physical strength

[53:03]hi DeBellis I should do a better arba'een asana and he reached

[53:10]40 years of age our abuser knee and ashkelon emetic ality and

[53:14]I'm Talia walla walla day Allah says when the human being reaches

[53:17]the age 40 that's a an important threshold that you've reached now

[53:21]there's a lot of psychology behind the age of 40 you know

[53:27]if you have habits a lifestyle you're flexible to changing it generally

[53:31]speaking if you're under 40 the younger you are the more you

[53:36]can quickly adapt and change but once you have a particular lifestyle

[53:39]way of life habits and that carries and then that that's carried

[53:43]into the age of 40 it kind of becomes permanent in your

[53:49]life another aspect of the age of 40 is the intellectual maturity

[53:52]that's why one Hadees that's most prophets of God were sent as

[53:57]messengers at which age 40 because the intellectual peak of the human

[54:02]being is at forty by the way there's science behind this too

[54:06]I remember once reading a study that the ability to concentrate when

[54:10]you're reading something or doing something generally peaks at age forty forty

[54:15]to forty-five it peaks at that age there's even science behind this

[54:19]well see the number forty even in the Quran there is something

[54:22]about the number forty it's a symbol so if people say we're

[54:28]visiting Imam for saying first of all the prophets that visit every

[54:30]amount of Annabeth's a visit here's one of the symbols of God

[54:34]even if we have no hadith about the fortieth of a man

[54:35]for saying if people say for ionically the number forty is significant

[54:38]and by the way we have many hadith it's not just Quran

[54:43]about the number forty the one who memorizes for the hadith Swedes

[54:47]examine that and carry what that means men saravana sabha Han the

[54:51]one who's sincere to Allah for forty days if you want to

[54:57]keep a habit maintain at forty days try it habit that's very

[55:01]difficult as sin you want to keep away from a positive habit

[55:06]you want to develop the hadith says pretend force yourself try for

[55:10]forty days if you manage to go forty days with sincerity keeping

[55:15]away from sins Allah will cause the springs of Hekmat wisdom to

[55:24]flow from your heart out your tongue Allah says give me forty

[55:27]days of your life till the rest of your life you will

[55:32]be with me I'll protect you from sins forty days can we

[55:34]can you avoid sins for 40 days and we have many ideas

[55:40]about 40 days meet Reba doing sins will block your prayer from

[55:44]being accepted see there's a lot about the number 40 even if

[55:46]I had know how you feel about erm unforeseen no Quran tells

[55:50]me the number forty is a special number so people are reminding

[55:54]themselves of the sacrifice of imam hussain forty days after he is

[55:58]martyred is that a Buddha or that's in line with the spirit

[56:05]of Quran see even these details my dear brothers and sisters we

[56:08]in the school of animate the beauty of our school of that

[56:14]it's founded in the Holy Quran and the beliefs of other schools

[56:18]of that contradict the Quran those who reject safar those who reject

[56:22]Oster those who reject this that that it's rejected by Quran those

[56:25]who say people choose and gather their Khalifa rejected by Quran although

[56:30]with wiping on their feet well that one it can go both

[56:35]ways linguistically even though their explanation is far fetched linguistically so yes

[56:40]it's it's a far-fetched explanation of Quran but we can't say the

[56:47]Quran clearly for instance condemns that so this is a very very

[56:52]important hadith keeping in mind my dear brothers and sisters because in

[56:56]sha allah as allah will increase your knowledge you'll have more experience

[56:58]you'll speak to other muslims and even there are some Shia today

[57:03]that are challenging this beliefs by the way a lot of the

[57:06]beliefs that we have know the basis for everything in Quran a

[57:10]job we believe in her job right well where's the basis for

[57:14]in the Quran no it nowhere the basis is everything that today

[57:19]people are challenging homosexuality I've heard Muslims say the Quran does not

[57:26]ban homosexuality the Quran does not say it's immoral I've heard Muslims

[57:33]say that nowhere the basis for that Perron where's the moral compass

[57:37]that the Quran gives us and every other new theory that's coming

[57:42]out there any final questions the 40 years that surah al-ahqaf verse

[57:53]50 15 12 yes I'll give you the exact surah number so

[58:08]surah al-ahqaf the number of that chapter is 46 46 and the

[58:16]verse number yes the first number is 16 study that verse it's

[58:25]a beautiful verse any other questions these books these classes other classes

[58:44]lectures programs workshops well there are there are workshops there are online

[58:50]lectures programs it's there the knowledge is out there there's no excuse

[58:54]these days in fact if anybody challenges you about the hijab just

[59:03]use the word khimar Allah mentions the word Jamaat in Arabic c'mon

[59:07]and Arabic is any piece of cloth that covers the what the

[59:13]head head covering her job is another word for head covering Allah

[59:17]says let their jihad come down and cover their chest their bosoms

[59:20]because the Arabs a lot of village women they would cover their

[59:24]head their hair but their neck and this upper chest area would

[59:30]be exposed so Allah says that c'mon which you already have keep

[59:33]it that's part of her job but make sure you bring the

[59:38]skin out and cover the upper chest as well cover the neck

[59:40]area if this is not a clear verse about her job I

[59:45]don't I don't know then what is clear in this world very

[59:49]clear very clear what what other words do you want a lot

[59:52]to to use they say no no no the word hijab is

[59:55]not there how maybe the word a job does not even mean

[59:58]hand covering why are you looking for the word her job her

[60:02]job does that mean head covering by the way what does her

[60:05]job linguistically mean at the time of quran barrier any barriers called

[60:09]her job later on throughout cultures and histories the headscarf became known

[60:14]as the head job because it's a barrier that blocks the viewer

[60:17]from seeing your hair so why are you even looking for the

[60:22]word a job why are you presupposing that the word should be

[60:24]there if it's not then forget you know the concept of hijab

[60:31]came out come on is a beautiful word that allow users that's

[60:34]super clear yes it's in the fema and it's in the quran

[60:43]you would you like the verse yeah so let's in note nor

[60:47]31 so latin or 31 very very clear verse in her job

[60:53]everything that we have the basis for it is in the quran

[60:58]we the she as we combine the prayers right we're allowed to

[61:01]combine the prayers if you want the whole assortment ribbon asha while

[61:04]others accuse us of innovation and whatever well where's the basis for

[61:12]the ankara when allah mentions the prayer times he mentions three primary

[61:17]times colors simple as that if each letter had its distinct time

[61:21]that you can only do a lot of mentioned five times not

[61:26]three but allah mentions three Optima salata you do lucas gems for

[61:30]elegance at the late night walk around and fetch allah says pray

[61:38]in these three times everything that we have my dear brothers and

[61:42]sisters is well founded in the quran and this is the takeaway
