[0:00]foreign [Music] [Music] Allah [Music] foreign my um [Music] foreign [Music] [Music]

[2:15]Muhammad respected Elders brothers and sisters why is our culture so obsessed

[2:42]with sex with gender and with preferred pronouns why is it that

[2:50]we see a drastic increase in the number of young people who

[2:54]identify as transgenders or as non-binaries my dear brothers and sisters there

[3:07]are many reasons why we are witnessing an unprecedented era an era

[3:14]of mass confusion about something as basic as sex and gender there

[3:22]are many reasons however there are two individuals two men who deserve

[3:30]a lot of credit or blame for our society's fixation on gender

[3:43]issues and these two individuals are Alfred Kinsey and John money if

[3:51]you study gender Theory and you want to understand the development the

[4:00]historical development of these ideas ideas like gender identity gender theory gender

[4:05]fluidity it's important to familiarize ourselves with some of the leading thinkers

[4:11]some of the intellectual pioneers of gender ideology if you look at

[4:20]these two individuals when you examine their lives what you find is

[4:28]quite shocking Alfred Kinsey and John money if you look at them

[4:36]and you study their careers their experiments you find that these individuals

[4:40]are actually deeply Disturbed people they are individuals who are actually serial

[4:50]abusers and there is no doubt that an argument can be made

[4:55]that they probably even had pedophilic tendencies why do I say that

[5:02]you take Alfred Kinsey for example this is an individual who at

[5:04]least in the American context he was among the first to popularized

[5:12]the idea of gender fluidity he was in Indiana University researcher and

[5:20]his area of Interest was sexuality he authored two important books among

[5:26]the books that he published was a book called sexual behavior in

[5:33]the human female and he published another book called sexual behavior in

[5:41]the human male so he popularized the idea of gender fluidity fluidity

[5:49]in 1948.

[5:52]so again sometimes we take it for granted how new these Concepts

[5:56]and these ideas are when when Alfred Kinsey was studying sexuality he

[6:06]actually used about 300 children in his experience in his experiments many

[6:12]people don't know this he was studying sexuality in children babies infants

[6:21]in fact he was actually studying sexual pleasure in children now my

[6:26]question is how can a child from an ethical standpoint how can

[6:33]a child consent to participate in such an experiment so you find

[6:39]that one of the intellectual pioneers of gender fluidity an individual who

[6:45]has shaped you know John money and Alfred Kinsey they have influenced

[6:50]the lgbtq movement and they have essentially shaped the Western culture's View

[6:58]on gender and sexuality so this is an individual you know these

[7:02]are people who Unfortunately they are given awards for their research when

[7:06]they should have went to prison for child abuse you take John

[7:15]money he was an American psychologist he was a professor at Johns

[7:23]Hopkins University and he was among the first to popularize the idea

[7:29]in America at least that gender and sex are two different things

[7:34]that someone's gender and their sex doesn't necessarily have to align in

[7:42]fact he made the argument that he was among the proponents of

[7:49]the argument that gender is a social construct and hence it is

[7:56]inextricably malleable it's something that you can change so what happens what

[8:02]happened was that an opportunity arose that offered him a chance to

[8:13]put his theory to the test there was a family called the

[8:20]Reimer family this was probably in the 1960s the Reimer family they

[8:28]had twins two little boys one of the boys damaged his genitalia

[8:39]during a circumcision that went wrong so they went to John money

[8:46]and they were looking for some solutions he recommended that they put

[8:54]their son Bruce Bruce was his name the little boy he suggested

[8:59]that Bruce should go through sexual reassignment surgeries and he suggested he

[9:07]recommended and keep in mind this is a professor this is someone

[9:09]who has a gender identity Clinic he recommended to the parents that

[9:17]Bruce yes he's a biological male but from now on raise him

[9:25]as a girl so Bruce now became Brenda this is a real

[9:32]story this is a true story so for the next several years

[9:38]Bruce is raised as a as a girl and Bruce and his

[9:46]brother or Brenda and his brother for years they were subjected to

[9:53]the most horrific psychological and sexual abuse at the hands of this

[10:00]man and you know what happened these two boys they grew up

[10:05]and they ended up one of them died of a drug overdose

[10:09]and the other one committed suicide Alfred Kinsey and John money are

[10:18]some of the leading figures some of the pioneers of the gender

[10:23]ideology movement it's very important brothers and sisters that when we discuss

[10:29]any topic any issue we have to be familiar with the background

[10:33]story we have to understand who these people are where these ideas

[10:38]are coming from now when you look at these terms as I

[10:45]mentioned last night we take it for granted that homosexuality is something

[10:50]that has been around for a long time the reality is homosexuality

[10:53]is a relatively new term it was coined in the 1860s it's

[10:59]not something that existed for thousands of years or hundreds of years

[11:01]similarly the term gender identity was something that was coined just a

[11:09]few decades ago and gender identity basically refers to the way that

[11:16]someone feels about themselves right so the argument here is that sex

[11:21]and even this is being challenged today sex is a reference to

[11:28]your biological traits your sex organs and gender is how you feel

[11:36]so you might have someone who is a biological male but their

[11:43]gender does not correspond to their Anatomy it doesn't correspond to their

[11:51]Anatomy now when you look at the Quran and of course this

[11:54]is where we get into the topic of social construct and the

[11:58]idea of a social construct is that it's malleable it's something that's

[12:03]subjective what's interesting as I mentioned last night sexual orientation today is

[12:11]considered to be a social construct which is subject to change you

[12:19]can change it but why is it if it's something that can

[12:22]be changed why is it that in Canada conversion therapy is considered

[12:29]a harmful practice if it's possible to change why can't a homosexual

[12:34]change to a heterosexual no that's harmful there are only some transitions

[12:40]that are approved you see now when you look at the the

[12:47]Quran and by the way speaking of of gender identities just today

[12:51]if you look up how many gender identities there are there are

[12:57]a 107 gender identities can you imagine that can you imagine the

[13:02]confusion of the times that we live in today and all of

[13:08]these are social constructs gender fluidity today you can be a he

[13:11]tomorrow you can be a she the next day you can be

[13:16]in they your feelings take priority over objective reality now what does

[13:24]the Quran say about gender now again it's a it's a new

[13:31]term the Quran when it speaks about gender it doesn't purport that

[13:34]gender is a social construct the Quran tells us that gender is

[13:38]a Divine construct Allah when he speaks about the creation of the

[13:44]human being in Surat o people all Humanity o people we have

[14:02]created you we Allah this is a Divine construct we have created

[14:05]you from a male this is not a social construct is something

[14:13]that has been determined by Allah this is a Divine Design so

[14:18]the first human beings there's a fundamental gender binary there and then

[14:25]Allah he says from those from the first male and female from

[14:41]Adam and Eve Allah says the first human beings there was a

[14:52]gender binary male and female and from this first pair they procreated

[15:00]other children grandchildren progeny that also fall into this male and female

[15:09]category so the Quran tells us that the first human beings it's

[15:16]male and female they're children their offspring the Quran also tells us

[15:22]that this these categories are not arbitrary they're not malleable Allah what

[15:31]does he say in the Quran the male is not like the

[15:43]female who would have thought that such a simple verse speaking about

[15:47]a very simple idea would become one of the most contested statements

[15:57]in fact not only we live in a time where we cannot

[16:02]even identify what is a record and what is an untha imagine

[16:06]that Islam you're not going to find the Hadith or a verse

[16:11]in the Quran where Allah tells you what a man is or

[16:14]what a woman is you might have some documentaries that speak about

[16:19]these issues it's like asking what is the Islamic definition of water

[16:24]Allah doesn't need to Define it it's obvious does it need to

[16:28]Define what a man is what a woman is because it's obvious

[16:31]it's common sense but unfortunately we are living in a period of

[16:40]mass delusion I'm sorry to say it that's the reality we live

[16:43]in a time of mass delusion Allah says the male is not

[16:48]like the female Allah is not saying that the male is better

[16:52]than the male better than the female or the female is better

[16:57]than them they are equally Noble but they're different they're complementary they

[17:05]need each other but they have different roles they have different responsibilities

[17:11]in fact one of the strongest evidences that we have that there

[17:16]exists in Islam a fundamental gender or binary is open up any

[17:22]book of Islamic law significant number of our akam are gender-based if

[17:29]you look at something like Salah there are certain for women in

[17:38]Salah that are discouraged for men there are certain that apply to

[17:43]women when it comes to fasting they don't apply to men when

[17:47]a woman gets divorced for example she may have to go go

[17:51]through a waiting period a man doesn't have an is this discrimination

[17:56]no there are differences in the rulings that apply to men and

[18:03]women why because because men are not like women we're different and

[18:10]one of the most destructive ideas that has been purported and peddled

[18:17]by certain strands of feminism is what the male is like the

[18:22]female do you know how much damage this has cost to women

[18:24]when they live in a society where they have to constantly compare

[18:31]themselves to men they have to strive to emulate men men are

[18:34]put up on the pedestal and a woman has to be like

[18:39]a man if she wants to be successful but the Quran says

[18:44]you're different as much as you try to fight it you cannot

[18:50]fight science you cannot fight biology you cannot fight this Divine construct

[18:56]when he said now obviously there are certain aspects of traditional gender

[19:04]roles that are culture based we're not denying that but to say

[19:09]that gender is completely divorced from biology is simply incorrect it's baseless

[19:18]in fact if you look at a man and a woman a

[19:21]male and a female we are not only different in our appearance

[19:28]we are different even on the molecular level we're different our our

[19:35]DNA is different so why is it that we have certain ideologies

[19:39]that insist that the man and the woman should be treated equally

[19:43]but their DNA is different why should why should two things that

[19:50]are different be treated equally now there are certain people my dear

[19:58]brothers and sisters who suffer of what is called gender dysphoria the

[20:06]oh by the way the overwhelming majority of human beings will very

[20:12]neatly fit into one of these two categories male and female the

[20:18]overwhelming majority of human beings are going to fit into these categories

[20:22]there is a very very small percentage of people who are born

[20:29]with a medical condition called gender dysphoria gender dysphoria is basically when

[20:36]someone does not identify with their own sex they have a stronger

[20:47]association with the opposite sex so for example someone who suffers of

[20:53]gender dysphoria they might be a biological male anatomically physiologically he's a

[20:59]man he's male but he feels that he is a female he

[21:05]feels that he is trapped in the wrong body this condition exists

[21:11]there are some people who suffer of this and as Muslims we

[21:15]should not insult these people we should not denigrate them we should

[21:20]speak to them with kindness just like anyone who has who's going

[21:24]through a struggle who has an illness a condition they need they

[21:27]needed to be treated with compassion with understanding with empathy because what

[21:32]does the prophet say Muslim men a Muslim is someone whom people

[21:44]feel safe from his hand and his tongue and this applies to

[21:50]all people my dear brothers and sisters even people who have been

[21:57]duped by gender ideology who are confused about their gender identity that

[22:03]does not give uni license to bully them this is very important

[22:05]and this is one of the criticisms that I personally have when

[22:08]it comes to certain individuals who might conduct interviews with people who

[22:13]are struggling with their identity now it's okay to have discussions but

[22:20]to mock but to ridicule is unislamic we should have sympathy for

[22:23]people who are going through these difficulties but we need to unequivocally

[22:31]state that gender in Islam is a Divine construct that the majority

[22:36]of people are not going to suffer of gender dysphoria the majority

[22:41]of people their gender and their sex are going to be perfectly

[22:46]aligned and today it seems like there's a name for that cisgender

[22:50]I remember someone said Sheikh your cisgender well I thought they were

[22:54]insulting me I said what do you mean I'm cisgender I looked

[22:56]it up it means someone who's whose gender corresponds with his sex

[23:00]I said alhamdulillah it sounds like an illness but it's okay we'll

[23:04]accept it I don't know someone who suffers of gender dysphoria are

[23:14]they committing Haram is Allah going to punish them for the way

[23:20]that they feel remember my dear brothers and sisters there is a

[23:23]general principle that we should we should also always keep in mind

[23:26]and that is the principle of divine Justice Allah will never hold

[23:34]you accountable for something that is truly beyond your control something that

[23:39]you are not doing deliberately if someone is born and they truly

[23:43]feel that they are in the wrong body and they don't they

[23:47]do not have any control over these feelings Allah is not going

[23:50]to punish them they're not blameworthy we should sympathize with them but

[23:54]we should not pretend that this is the norm this is a

[24:01]very very rare exception the problem is gender dysphoria is treated as

[24:07]something that has become widespread it's something that's very rare and that's

[24:12]something that we have to keep in mind now one aspect of

[24:20]gender confusion or One symptom of gender confusion is what we see

[24:28]today and that is this phenomenon of cross-dressing transvestites you know believe

[24:35]it or not we actually have ahadith we have Traditions that speak

[24:42]about this concept of men imitating women and women imitating men we

[24:48]have a Hadith about this in fact when you look at the

[24:55]Islamic tradition Islam prohibits men from deliberately behaving effeminently Islam prohibits a

[25:07]man from dressing like a woman and of course this is going

[25:12]to differ from one cultural context to another Islam prohibits a woman

[25:18]from deliberately acting masculine deliberately imitating men we have a Hadith where

[25:29]have condemned this Behavior if you look at for example which is

[25:34]one of the most important collections of the legal traditions of their

[25:38]if you look at nikah the book of marriage one of the

[25:47]chapters speaks about this issue and there's an entire section that he

[25:51]calls it is the section the chapter on the prohibition of men

[26:05]deliberately being effeminate and women deliberately acting masculine imitating the opposite gender

[26:10]there's a narration there's a narration from the Hadith is the Hadith

[26:37]says that one day he saw a man in the Masjid of

[26:47]the Prophet deliberately acting effeminate and the key word here is deliberately

[26:53]there are some men they might have some feminine qualities they might

[27:00]engage maybe the way they speak is a bit feminine maybe the

[27:05]way that they walk is a bit feminine maybe they have certain

[27:07]hand gestures that are feminine if it is truly beyond their control

[27:14]this Hadith is not speaking about them this Hadith is speaking about

[27:19]the ones who are doing it intentionally and some Scholars would argue

[27:24]that even if you're not doing it intentionally make an effort to

[27:31]modify these behaviors to conduct yourself in a way that is more

[27:34]masculine it's better if you can if you can't then you're pardoned

[27:38]in this Hadith sees a man in the Masjid of the Prophet

[27:43]who is basically pretending to be a woman acting in an effeminate

[27:51]way now look at how amiral meaning responds and the way that

[27:59]Emirates response may shock you because sometimes we have this impression that

[28:05]are always very kind and very merciful and very loving yes that's

[28:12]true that's their default disposition but when something when it when an

[28:16]egregious indecency is taking place that can threaten the social fabric you

[28:25]see the firmness come out it's very dangerous when you start blurring

[28:31]the lines between what a man is and what a woman is

[28:35]it's very dangerous and we see it today say he says to

[28:41]him out of the Masjid now I'm not saying that you and

[28:50]I should go around and saying that you know the way that

[28:52]guy walks let's kick him out that's not what the Hadith is

[28:58]saying knows what he's doing he knows his Tech leave he knows

[29:01]maybe the Imam knew this person he knew that this person is

[29:06]doing it intentionally you and I should not use these are Hadith

[29:09]and weaponize them against someone who might have certain feminine qualities this

[29:13]is not what the purpose of this Hadith the intention of this

[29:18]Hadith is to demonstrate that if someone is deliberately acting effeminate condemns

[29:25]it and sees it as a threat as a danger as a

[29:31]social ill kicks them out of the message and then what does

[29:37]he say rasulullah oh the one who is among the people who

[29:42]the prophet cursed he says to those who are with him he

[29:53]says this is not just coming from he says I heard the

[30:03]messenger of Allah say what Allah [Music] says may Allah be upon

[30:16]those men who are deliberately effeminate who deliberately dress like women who

[30:23]deliberately act like women you know in the Islamic tradition I believe

[30:31]we have about 18 ahadith about maintaining a beard perhaps one of

[30:38]the wisdoms is that Allah wants to create a very clear demarcation

[30:42]between men and women so it's obvious who's a man and who's

[30:48]a woman to push each gender to the opposite side of the

[30:51]spectrum it's healthier for the society says I heard the messenger of

[31:00]Allah say may Allah's curse and be upon those men who deliberately

[31:03]imitate the behaviors of women who are deliberately effeminate and may Allah

[31:09]be upon those women who deliberately and imitate men now again this

[31:15]is going to differ from culture to culture just to give you

[31:20]a simple example imagine there is a culture where women wear dresses

[31:24]and men wear trousers just for the sake of a simple example

[31:28]in such a culture it would be Haram for a woman to

[31:38]wear trousers because in that culture that attire is strongly associated with

[31:43]the opposite gender stay within the gender norms this is emphasized and

[31:54]encouraged now there is another narration that we have this time is

[32:03]narrating an incident that took place during the lifetime of the prophets

[32:14]Amanda for those who are Whispering salawat I want to share one

[32:23]important point with you we have a Hadith that tell us to

[32:29]raise your voice in salawat from the hearts [Music] so take advantage

[32:42]of the barakah of Salah Whenever there is a invitation to recite

[32:47]do not whisper with the loudest of your voices Muhammad all right

[32:58]foreign a man came to the prophet and the Hadith says basically

[33:21]we could translate it as someone who is intentionally acting effeminate deliberately

[33:30]acting effeminate this individual said salaam to the prophet Salaam the prophet

[33:41]responded to their Salam so again from the response of the Prophet

[33:47]this indicates that yes this person is committing a sin but they're

[33:51]still Muslim we should never go around declaring this person is apostate

[33:56]or this person is outside of Islam we have to be very

[33:58]careful about we the followers that will bait unlike others we should

[34:04]be very careful about pushing someone out of Islam the prophet responded

[34:10]and do you know what the prophet did when he saw this

[34:16]man deliberately acting effeminate says Imam says I saw rasulullah go down

[34:26]into sujood he threw himself on the ground yes rasulullah went down

[34:33]into sujud and he was reciting in this sentence is usually a

[34:44]sentence that we recite when there is a prophet he goes down

[34:56]in sujud presumably reciting and then he says and perhaps others who

[35:05]are there he says um the prophet says there are people like

[35:09]this in my ummah in um the prophet was so distressed he

[35:23]says there are people like this in my ummah verily there have

[35:26]never been a group like this within an ummah except that Allah

[35:30]sent down his adab even before you shouldn't take these issues lightly

[35:36]brothers and sisters these are things that truly damage the traditional family

[35:43]if we live in a society where we cannot identify what a

[35:46]man is and what a woman is how can we have marriages

[35:50]how can we have families this is a satanic tactic to cast

[35:56]doubt and aspirations on one of the most common sense questions in

[36:01]human history so this is with recite with respect to attachable and

[36:06]vice versa now we come to the issue of intersex individuals there

[36:13]are some people my dear brothers and sisters who are born with

[36:21]certain physiological abnormalities there are some people who are again it's a

[36:27]very small percentage of the population they're born for example with unique

[36:32]chromosome types instead of XX and X Y they have x x

[36:40]y or xyy now again this is very rare and in some

[36:42]cases you have individuals who are born with male genitalia and female

[36:49]genitalia this exists these are very rare conditions there's an interesting incident

[36:55]and this is also mentioned in the narration is so this individual

[37:06]is a companion of he says I was with which is one

[37:13]of the areas in the Arabian peninsula there was a group that

[37:22]came to greet and to meet the Imam alaihi salaam did not

[37:28]recognize them they were from a distant land the narration says that

[37:31]they came from Syria they had a problem they presented their problem

[37:38]they said to him our father passed away and he left a

[37:51]fortune he left a lot of wealth what's and our father he

[38:03]left sons and daughters but one of our siblings is an intersex

[38:10]one of our siblings has both male parts and female parts female

[38:17]genitalia and male genitalia foreign that he has both organs and he

[38:34]is claiming to be male because the male gets a greater share

[38:39]insane so they said no we don't agree with him they wanted

[38:46]to categorize them as female so he gets less of The Inheritance

[38:52]he's insisting that no I'm a male Salaam Imam he says he

[39:01]says go to your fellow the Imam gives them away to put

[39:09]this person in one of the two categories doesn't say well you

[39:15]know what he's non-binary just give him you know a percentage doesn't

[39:21]say keep this person as a non-binary says when he urinates see

[39:29]where the urine comes out from if when he urinates the urine

[39:44]comes out of the male organ then he is closer to the

[39:48]male and if it doesn't and if it comes out of the

[39:51]female then he's closer to the female the point is he gives

[39:57]them a solution he doesn't just say you know what let's just

[40:02]keep it ambiguous and the narration the narration says that he he

[40:07]ended up urinating and it came out of the male organ and

[40:11]of course he received his inheritance this was probably the most distressing

[40:16]moment for the uh the brothers when they saw that it came

[40:20]out of the so the point is my dear brothers and sisters

[40:25]yes an intersex person a junta has physiological abnormalities this is something

[40:31]that's beyond their control and it's not sinful for them they're not

[40:34]committing this is something that's the way that Allah created them however

[40:38]Islamic law requires them to do what to live their lives in

[40:45]accordance with the gender that they are biologically closest to now if

[40:50]it is truly ambiguous and you cannot figure it out then such

[40:56]a person is going to have to live a life of etiat

[40:57]and it would be much easier for them to identify with a

[41:04]gender with consultation with Physicians and psychologists now sometimes the term junta

[41:11]is conflated and equated with a trans person you know a lot

[41:22]of times you have discussions about transsexuals and then you have someone

[41:25]else says but our Hadith also speak about junta my dear brothers

[41:29]and sisters there is a big difference between an intersex person a

[41:34]junta and a trans person an intersex individual is someone who has

[41:45]a physiological abnormality there might be some ambiguity regarding their sexual organs

[41:52]a trans person is very different a trans person has no physiological

[42:01]ambiguity this is someone who subjectively disassociates with their own sex it's

[42:08]very different you cannot apply the laws of Junta to someone who

[42:16]is trans now what does Islam say what to say to sustani

[42:25]because most of the Shia of the world they do say this

[42:27]what to say this sustani say about gender realignment and by the

[42:35]way brothers and sisters it's important to ask ourselves why has this

[42:38]become a trend today why is it so common I humbly believe

[42:45]and I could be wrong Allah Knows Best but I believe that

[42:50]a lot of this has to do with the fact that we

[42:55]live in an attention-based culture people feel unseen people feel like there's

[43:04]nothing unique about them they feel like their lives are meaningless and

[43:08]this is a result of living in a Godless culture they feel

[43:12]unseen they feel like no one notices them and therefore many youngsters

[43:20]what they do is to make themselves unique to make themselves stand

[43:29]out they perform these drastic procedures and I think that this speaks

[43:34]to a deeper spiritual problem the need to feel valued the need

[43:41]to feel important and this is what happens when you live in

[43:45]a secular Godless Society where people are disconnected from their creator they

[43:51]feel lost they feel like life is meaningless and this is what

[43:56]Allah says in the Quran whoever turns away from my remembrance they

[44:04]shall have a very distressing life this is what we see so

[44:11]someone poses this question to say the system and this is an

[44:18]is you can go on his website it's in Arabic but I'll

[44:21]read it and I'll translate just some excerpts of it the question

[44:24]that was posed to say the system was a the question is

[44:37]is it permissible for a person to change their gender from a

[44:42]male to a female or vice versa and say the sistani goes

[44:50]into a lengthy discussion and one of the things that say it

[44:54]is asked about he was asked if hormone treatments and surgical procedures

[45:01]actually transition a person from male to female because if someone wants

[45:10]to undergo gender reassignment they undergo they give them you know testosterone

[45:18]estrogen they perform certain surgeries say the sistani he says these surgeries

[45:22]altering the external organs does not make you the opposite gender it

[45:28]doesn't make you the opposite sex he says hormone therapy gender realignment

[45:36]surgeries you went through the surgery and it didn't result in a

[45:47]transition from an Islamic perspective because some Scholars say that the definition

[45:53]of a man and a woman is decided by the Earth does

[45:58]society really see this person as a man does society really see

[46:05]this as a woman or are people just being polite so say

[46:13]it says all of this has no effect on the reality of

[46:17]the person's identity a female does not become a male in reality

[46:27]through hormone therapy or through gender realignment challenges the possibility of even

[46:35]making this transition so what does he say he says he allows

[46:46]surgical procedures when it comes to people who have physiological abnormalities he

[46:52]says if there is some ambiguity if someone for example has both

[46:58]organs and one of them is seen as dominant he says you

[47:01]can do a surgery that brings out the more dominant so this

[47:10]is not gender realignment say the sistani is basically saying you're allowed

[47:15]to do a surgery to remove ambiguity if there is a physiological

[47:20]abnormality and then he says for those who suffer from a psychological

[47:33]condition they have a gender Christ identity crisis it's psychological this is

[47:42]someone who is biologically male physio biologically female there's nothing physiologically wrong

[47:49]with them he says someone who doesn't have any physiological abnormality says

[48:10]if it's just psychological and it's not physiological it is not permissible

[48:16]to alter your external sexual organs allowed to and I think that

[48:25]this is very wise you know brothers and sisters today kids are

[48:31]being influenced to make drastic decisions about their identity you might have

[48:37]a little girl she's seven eight years old and she's a bit

[48:40]of a tomboy she's a bit of a tomboy instead of looking

[48:45]that as a temporary phase in this little girl's life the little

[48:49]girl is told what maybe you're a guy and this girl is

[48:58]influenced into thinking persuaded into having an operation that is irreversible that

[49:07]will potentially psychologically damage her for life and of course this is

[49:14]very lucrative it's very lucrative because there's no money in telling people

[49:17]you know maybe you should wait it out right now you kind

[49:21]of feel like a boy but maybe next year you'll fit more

[49:27]comfortably into your gender maybe your gender and your sex will align

[49:32]because we go through phases no no no she needs to transition

[49:37]we have to up we have to offer gender affirming care this

[49:41]is abuse you're five six year olds I met a five-year-old who

[49:46]went undergone an operation to change their gender why the parents said

[49:51]oh because he wanted to be a girl Baba my daughter wanted

[49:56]to be a dragon you don't listen to kids honestly I don't

[50:00]mean to laugh I don't mean to make light of this situation

[50:05]but have people lost their minds your five-year-old you're sick you're 10

[50:09]year old you don't just let them do whatever they want your

[50:14]child needs can send they have to go they have to wait

[50:20]until they're 18 before they can get a driver license at the

[50:21]age of 10 they want to change their gender something that is

[50:27]irreversible and by the way the suicide rates of people who change

[50:32]their gender are very high the suicide rates are very high and

[50:37]it's not just related to bullying there's something else going on because

[50:42]even in the most accepting societies societies like San Francisco the suicide

[50:48]rates of trans people is still very high this is what you

[50:53]have this is what happens when we Tinker with Allah's creation this

[50:57]is what happens so say the sistani he says it is not

[51:03]permissible to perform these surgeries and he says what is like for

[51:12]example if someone if a biological male decides that he wants to

[51:17]be a woman and he castrates himself and he takes estrogen he

[51:22]says first of all you committed a sin by going through this

[51:26]surgery I don't give you permission this is Haram secondly even after

[51:32]this surgery you are still islamically considered a male and the laws

[51:37]of males still apply to you meaning women still have to cover

[51:42]in front of you there's not that there's not that you are

[51:46]treated as a male nothing has changed the man remains on the

[51:57]rulings there applied to man and the woman remains on the rulings

[52:01]that apply to women my dear brothers and sisters I want to

[52:05]conclude with this final notes there is and the Ayah says the

[52:20]Ayah says and let man look at his food one of the

[52:29]narrators he says I asked Imam [Music] he says I asked Imam

[52:45]al-baker what is meant by the food he gives him the esoteric

[52:51]meaning of the Ayah he says foreign it means spiritual food knowledge

[53:02]all human being don't only pay attention to your physical nourishment pay

[53:10]attention to the sources of your knowledge where are you getting your

[53:15]knowledge from are you getting it from John money are you getting

[53:20]it from Albert Kinsey is your understanding of gender coming from these

[53:24]satanic people these pedophiles or is your understanding of gender and sexuality

[53:31]coming from is it coming from Imam and Baka where is your

[53:36]knowledge coming from where is your world view coming from we have

[53:40]to wake up my dear brothers and sisters because if we don't

[53:45]wake up we are going to lose our families we're going to

[53:48]lose our communities and we're going to lose ourselves in these nights

[53:54]on the second of Muharram this is a very tragic day because

[54:04]this is the day in which arrived in the land of carbonara

[54:11]with his women with his children it was a very long journey

[54:21]from Mecca they traveled for 23 days through the deserts through the

[54:29]valleys 23 days they stopped at 38 resting stations when IBN Ziad

[54:36]received words received words received word that Hussain is moving towards kufa

[54:47]they decided to send one of their most decorated commanders to intercept

[54:53]Imam and Hussain to block Imam Al Hussain to Bar him from

[54:57]entering kufa one of the prominent Warriors of kufa with a brigade

[55:09]of a thousand men he arrives at the outskirts of kufa and

[55:15]he blocks Imam and her even though he was on the side

[55:23]of the opposition at this point he was still very respectful to

[55:27]Imam and Hussein when the army of her arrived a thousand men

[55:33]armed to the teeth seeing that Army petrified the daughters of Imam

[55:41]and Hussain the women and the children were frightened by the army

[55:45]of Imam are saying you've caused fear you've instilled fear in the

[55:55]hearts of the daughters may your mother grief for you may Allah

[56:01]punish you he says if anyone else were to speak to me

[56:11]like this I would have killed them and I would have replied

[56:13]may your mother grieve over you too but I cannot speak to

[56:19]you like this because your mother is Salaam he offered water to

[56:30]the men of her he gave water even to the horses it

[56:39]was the time of Salah Imam and Hussein he says do you

[56:46]want to lead your men in Salah or do you want to

[56:51]join us in Salah look at the humility of her these are

[56:53]probably one of the reasons why he received the tofiq of guidance

[56:58]he says it would be our honor to pray behind you you're

[57:02]the grandson of the prophet and his men they pray behind Imam

[57:08]and Hussein Allah I don't want to create any problems for you

[57:15]I have received orders that I cannot allow you to enter kufa

[57:21]and I cannot allow you to go back to Medina I am

[57:23]asking you to go find another place to camp out I'm just

[57:29]following orders he said Imam Hussain he turns to his companions and

[57:34]he says that does anyone know of a place that we can

[57:37]go to and we can camp out there was a man one

[57:42]of the companions of Imam Hussein I can take us to a

[57:49]patch of land an area that would be ideal for us to

[57:56]set can and it is close to shopping for art he takes

[58:02]Imam Hussain says take the reins of the camel that zainab is

[58:07]riding on and guide the camel of zainab and we will follow

[58:13]he takes the Reigns and he starts to recite poetry about the

[58:19]greatness of the family of rasulullah foreign [Music] foreign [Music] foreign comes

[59:22]to a halt Imam and Hussein thinking that maybe his horse is

[59:32]fatigued he changes the horse he gets on another horse the horse

[59:37]doesn't move the horse does not move an inch and this is

[59:44]where Imam al-hussein was able to read the signal he knew that

[59:50]they have arrived he asks his companions all my companions what is

[60:00]the name of this land foreign the name of this land is

[60:11]he says does it have another name another one of them says

[60:26]Imam says does it have another name I'm looking for another name

[60:29]they say ing he says is there another name for this land

[60:40]at that moment there was a Bedouin Arab traveling through the desert

[60:44]they asked him does this name have a special land have a

[60:52]special name he says yes this is the land of karbala the

[60:56]narrations he raised his hands into Allah he prays to Allah saying
