Dr yassir qadhi with all due respect to him is only showing one side of the argument. He doesn’t seem to warn his followers on the seamier side of learning Islam at Yale from non Muslims. They surely don’t look at things from the lens of iman, while they might be brilliant objectively. Here’s the danger of loosing your eman to shubuhaat.
afshan fatima true. Here in sweden. Even i can more about fiqh and legal issues than these m Swedish professors. They have everything in front of them. But still, they are not being able to gain knowledge
A man came to Umar bin Al Khattab (May Allah be pleased with him) and he had a big belly, Umar asked him, ‘What is this?’ The man replied, “It is a blessing from Allah!”Umar said, ‘No, its a punishment from Allah!.
The best generation of Muslims were the Sahaba and those are the ones with the best knowledge and understanding of Islam. Islam is not like physics which progresses with time. For the best understanding, we go to the Quran and Sunnah and earlier generations.
Rasul salAllahu'alayhi wasallam said, “Faith retreats to Madeenah like a snake returns to its hole.” [al-Bukhaari (1876) and Muslim (147)] In this hadeeth, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Faith retreats to Madeenah like a snake returns to its hole.” The word “retreats to” means to return and settle in Madeenah, just as a snake, when it goes out from its hole, returns to it. Here the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was saying that this religion will retreat to Madeenah after all other countries become corrupt, just as a snake comes out of its hole and wanders about the land, then it goes back to its hole. This hadeeth also indicates that just as Islam spread from Madeenah, it will return to it. Islam with its strength and authority spread from Madeenah, although its roots stemmed from Makkah. Makkah was the place where the first Revelation came down, but the Muslims did not have a state and power, and engage in jihad (battle), until after they migrated to Madeenah. Hence Islam with its power and authority, spread from Madeenah and will retreat to it at the end of time.
As a former philosophy major who went from atheism to Salafiyah, I have never been impressed by Yasir Qadhi. That is the truth. I think only intellectual lightweights see him as being anything other than a man who could not justify his faith and lost most of it in a western university. Nothing unique or profound about that. He got a PHD from Yale in Islamic Studies lol. I am more impressed with SHAYKH TAHIR WYATT. A PHD from the UNIVERSITY OF MADINA and taught in the Prophet's Masjid. That, is impressive.
@@Diamondraw4Real he meant, I would not want to be on Saudi's bad books, thus be able to get a visa for umrah, and also, that they are not very nice because some of their people go into their embassies and come out in pieces... Umrah and Jamal khashoggi
Only a kharijite and a devilish inspired man like Yasir Qadhi would utter such a statement; kharijite (khawaarij) because he incite and instigate rebellion against a muslim ruler, devilish inspired because he whispers syubuhaat over to the ignorants of things he knows nothing about inspiring them to think that the ruler instruct the murder of Khassogi. Has Yasir Qadhi elevated himself to be the one who knows of everything that is ghaib? p.s. even his Yale professors believe in the principle of " a man is innocence until proven guilty? wallahu a'lam.
@@rumahkubena fear Allah brother. Yasir Qadhi has a right over you for 3 reasons 1. He is a muslim 2. He has more knowledge thab you 3. He is (likely) older than you So show him respect, even if you disagree with him, speak with respect. His joke was very subttle, and reference a crime that the whole world knows Saudi government is involved in, so making a joke vs killing someone and cutting them up is nothing!
Alot of very stupid and deviant points he brought, firstly the Aqidah is not something that has developed rather we have statements from the Sahaba and the generations after them and the generations after them talking about the correct Aqidah and calling to it. So it is something that has been preserved since the time of the prophet (Peace and blessings be upon him). After greek phisolophy came into the muslim world than other beliefs such as asharis and mutazilah beliefs came forth. So salafism is the pure theology that the companions of our prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) Secondly, Ibn taymiyyah refuted the ideas and the innovations that were spreading around the muslim world he did not embrace them and change his belief according to them, so lets say ibn taymiyyah would be alive than we believe he would refute the ideas of secularism and democracy and not embrace them such as we sadly see you doing.
@E .S Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa baarakatahu my brother in Islam, may Allah bless you! Following the way of the sahaba and the first three generations is what the Messenger of Allah alayhi salaam advised us to follow in the famous hadith and Allah mentions in the Quran to follow the way of the believers referring to the companions of the Prophet. All muslims should follow the Salaf and our greatest salaf is the Prophet alayhi salam. The problem is some of our salafi brothers have turned other muslims away from the correct path due to harshness, a lack of good akhlaaq, patience and gentleness and not knowing when to put things in there correct places. This is not the way of the Salaf!! Following the salaf just means to follow the best of the early muslims beginning with the Messenger. May Allah guide us all to what is pleasing to Him. Ameen Baarak Allahu feekum ikhwaan
Much love from an American convert who live in Cairo, Egypt. I will watch the entire show once I arrive back home. I'm in Tahrir Square. I enjoy watching & hearing Sheikh Yasir Qadhi's lectures. May Allah swt guide & protect all of you & us AmeeeeeeeeN
We benefited from Dr Yasir Qadhi a lot but, we disagree som of his newly theological explanations. For instance, the comparison of physics and Islam (newton and Islamic scholars) is totally unsuitable. Human is a weak by nature whatsoever level and status he /she has reached. (كل بنى آدم خطاء ، وخير الخطائين التوابون) My Allah protect us and our ulamas from the Fitan.
Masha Allah I agree with you as well Dr YQ is a very knowledgeable individual but he seems to be experiencing doubts therefore he needs to be vigilant about his Eeman..He also needs to seek sincere guidance from Allah since Allah is the only one who guides the hearts..W'll make du'a for him may Allah guide us all to the straight path Allahuma Aameen❤
The example he gave makes perfect sense, but I think most people misunderstood it. It brilliantly describes who as one grows up and keeps learning about things, the way they understand that same subject will deepen and widen and develop. The student who began studying classical physics and later learned quantum physics will understand this.
Atheism, secularism, feminism, human rights and capitalism are all easily refutable as it clearly goes against Islam and considering that the majority of the world's ills have thrived in this framework is evidence of its inherent shortcomings from being manmade. The reasons why they are a prevalent fitnah for the youth is because of the state enforced indoctrination veiled as education + constant consumption of media which brainwashes these beliefs into society from birth and the lack of Muslims taking responsibility in teaching their children Islam and protecting them from these evil ideologies. Not to mention the incapability for Muslims to promote theocracy (which would provide a fertile environment on a societal level for Muslims to practice their faith) as all other forms of government and governance are in contradiction to the Qur'an and Sunnah by definition as they resort to other idealogys to govern with.
@FAT cat uh human rights dont exist. If the so called west love it so much why do they not do anything about it in palestine? Why do they support wars by killing innocents then say they are the leaders of human rights? Same with the bullshit capitlist systwm. The west and most governments are under the thumb of the Private bankers. If you dig deep you will find the truth. Dont expect it to come to you because you are heavily indoctrinated.
You should study my brother. With all due respect you have shown the level of your knowledge with this comment. To include human rights and all these other categories and say that they clearly go against Islam. Take it easy bro, study Islam, study in a secular university as well, and be humble because there is much to learn
@@raheemhanifa9636 I guess he ment human rights by the way western do it n beleive in it! In Islam we dont need human right movement bcs all of what we learn from islam is human rights, women rights, childen ,animal and all living brings. Soif we practice islam n have good akhlaq we already done all these concepts! But the western ideologies r not merely the name it has more meaning n decieving information. Like they practice human rights when it works for their benefit, but become unhuman n kill ppl when they want! They shout for femenism to take women haya n let them do whatever they want with their body n tell them its their right! .. as Muslim we follow quran n sunnah not western ideologies bcs it goes hand in hand with their twisted desires n belief. I hope u got my humble point of view.🙄
@@raheemhanifa9636 he's saying what people call human rights like undressing apostasy etc. There's no indication of any kind of arrogance. In fact so much arrogance cones about when a person has studied even a little and they find it suitable to tell ant random person they need to "study more"- which while it may be true for everyone that we should learn our deen, is highly condescending, especially not knowing this random brothers educational background.
Although initially parts of this podcast make sense (like referring to your local ulema who understand the context better), I think the part at 44:03 sums up where this view of dawa in the West is heading and a big part of the problem seems to come from RESIDING among the disbelievers, which our beloved Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) warned us against. It was narrated from the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he said: “I disavow every Muslim who resides among the mushrikeen.” Narrated by Abu Dawood (2645) and at-Tirmidhi (1604). Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Irwa’ al-Ghaleel (5/29-30) What is worrying is when referring to local ulema who understand the context better, in practice, turns into compromising, appeasing and taking weak opinions over stronger opinions to avoid giving 'hard core fatwa[s]...[that] nobody listen[s] to [and that are apparently] turn[ing] people away from Islam'. Consequently, it seems like, inevitably, residing among the disbelievers is, more and more, 'changing' us so much that we can't even 'recognise' ourselves anymore. Let's hope that our beloved Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) still recognises us as part of his ummah and worth interceding for, on the Day of Judgement. (See full quote from the podcast below). Also the brothers mentioned a few times the importance of keeping ourselves in check, which we should also accept from those who have a different minhaj. It does feel sad to see Muslims disagreeing so vehemently with each other but in one way it is a good thing and that is that these differences do help us to keep ourselves in check as our differing views help us to keep ourselves balanced. It's almost like a liberal versus conservative understanding of issues but the Truth could sometimes lie one one side, sometimes on the other side and sometimes near the middle. It reminds me of the different personalities of Abu Bakar (ra) and Umar (ra) during Abu Bakar's Caliphate, and how the softness of the former was balanced by the toughness of the latter, something that was unnecessary with our beloved prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) as he had the most balanced personality. At 44:03 Yasir Qadhi says, “I met Shaykh Abdul Aziz Al-Fawzaan., a very, very dynamic shaykh and aalim and he had lived in America for 5 years...this is the first year after I graduated from Madinah, I met him in London actually, and I said Shaykh, coming back to America now, I'm seeing so many of the fatwas in fiqh that I held as being completely haqq, now I understand you cannot apply that any more and I'm changing so much because I see the context of my people and he said, ...how true is this Oh Yasir, I spent 5 years in America and...every year I kept on changing my fatwas until I couldn't even recognise myself from 5 years ago, like seeing the impact, you come you give a hard core fatwa and you see not only does nobody listen to it, it turns people away from Islam and then you realise there's another opinion that actually makes sense etc, etc. You learn from experience what you don't learn from books...He then sees all of these fataawa and he understands this is not going to apply in my society...and then we understand that this cannot be imported [inaudible].”
Very nice and enjoyable talk. The questions were friendly but also probing and the answers were honest and fascinating. Dr. Yasir Qadhi is very knowledgeable about Islam and is also very easy to listen to. I think his views have moved from the mainstream over the years so I don't agree with everything he says. But even more importantly, why do 1.8 billion Muslims base everything in their lives on the teachings of one 7th century Arabian man (Muhammad)? Wouldn't it be better to adopt secular humanism instead, a system of belief which is based on human and animal rights and on maximizing happiness in the world? We wouldn't have to defend things like: chopping hands for theft, sex slavery of married and unmarried women (Nisa 4:24, Muslim 3432), and marrying and having intercourse with pre-pubescent girls (Talaq 65:4). I really liked the format and the talk. Thank you for having Dr. Qadhi on
Well first and foremost most Muslim nations have legal age of 18 and some 21. Now comes the question of punishment. For robbery the thing has to have a certain value than you need to find a way to calculate that value and compare it 1400 years ago. Which is why I'm also against it as you can't compare the value. Now as far as murder is concerned. Tell me are you ok feeding a guy who murdered your mother or someone close to you. Now slaves. You do realize they only captured slaves back than those who fought them in war. And you can't have sex without consent with your own wife let alone slaves.
And Quraan understanding...memorizing is not enough when you face the level of doubts and debates that dr. yasir qadhi faces. Anybody can memorize the quraan...but what impact are such people having on the non muslims in their land? Dawah wise?
SubhanAllah, Shaikh Yasir Qadhi is one of my all time favourite Shaikhs since many years and Alhamdulillah I’ve learnt so much from his lectures which has opened my mind and heart into understanding Islam better especially in these Fitna times when certain sects who are causing division amongst the Ummah. I have benefitted so much from his lectures and I pray from the bottom of my heart that may his Da’wah and teachings be a Sadaqah e Jaariyah for him and a means for him in entering Jannat ul Firdaus, Allahumma Ameen! His words are of gold and I just wish he wasn’t interrupted with jokes.; he’s a scholar with great understanding.
His words can be EASILY misunderstood if you don’t know the context behind what he is saying, who he is referring to, or even what. Ofc listening to this without any context will make it seem like he is bringing a “bidah”. Now what’s strange is that a lot of the grievances against Sh. Yasir posted by the likes of brother sajid were because he is advocating for looking beyond madhabs *and realizing that scholars, even giants of the past are fallible* . Yet even mufti muneer, the guy sajid defended says the SAME thing....
can you tell me what he means by 'strands' though? bc it seems that is the misunderstanding somehow. Like Saajid actually says that YQ thinks that it doesn't matter what Aqeedah you have, if your a Deobandi, salafi, or whatever else, like Qadiriya, which I didn't think was what Dr Qadhi meant at all when he spoke about different 'strands'.
Jane Dughatir Could you point out the time stamp so I can see what he is referring to? Because “strands” in islam could be aqeedah based, or fiqh/school of thought based.
@@symbiotezilla12345 asalaamu alaikum... i think that was @18:45 or so... it was about aqeedah pretty sure... or how to study aqeedah. Then he talks about Ibn Taiymiya's contribution or experiences. Have a good Ramadhan btw.
Very thought provoking however it is always best to stick within the ijam’ah off non boxed off mentality Ulema. Imam Ash-Shatibi r.a. who said: “Evil and misguided scholars are those who are dangerous to mankind. They are a disease to mankind, and they are those who do not act on their knowledge.” In his book Al-Fawa’id, Ibnul Qayyim r.a. gave a parable. He said: “Evil and misguided scholars are like people sitting on the gates of Paradise (Jannah) and calling people to come on in. With their tongues they are saying come on in, come on in, but their actions are saying do not come in. The more they talk to people and tell people to come in, the more their actions say do not listen to us, because if we were indeed truthful then we would have been the first to apply it…”
@@TareqKhan0 To be a scholar you need more than the knowledge of Quran & Sunnah. You also need the ilm of makan & zaman. Our pious predecessors understood this, just look at the Imams of our madhahib. And here you guys are completely dismissing the importance of learning the knowledge of makan & zaman.
@@Muhammad-Al-Hafidz Did the prophet Muhammad sallallah alay wa salaam ever say you need more than just knowledge of the Quran and the sunnah to be a scholar and if so which hadiths proceeded you in your statement also which verses of the Quran say this please enlighten me?
Many people stand with him still just off the mere fact that he's criticized Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab who Sufis, modernists, and Shia dispise. But people have ignored a lot of the other things that Yasir has said recently just because he critiqued the one man who they hate the most. Yasir Qadhi has literally admitted publicly that he had a faith crisis at Yale yet people still go through his lectutures and pick 1 thing that they like out of a 30 minute speech and promote that 1 thing as if there aren't 5 other issues in the same speech. I've even seen an agnostic/atheist praise Yasir Qadhi just because he said one thing that they liked. People seek validation from everything BUT the Kitab and sunnah.
YALEsir Qadhi is what this man ends up after many years of studying. I have listened to All of his seera class, All of his story of sahaba, the mother of the believers and much of his lectures and I would always wonder why is this guy keeps saying "let us Humanize the Sahaba, let us Humanize the Prophet" now I understand why. Because once he brings them down to his level and put doubt in the mind of the mass and lose the respect, it will be easy for him to say they are men and we are men, they make mistakes like we make mistakes so we don't have to follow or do exactly the same way as they did. If he has the audacity to say we can any kind of aqidah and still be ok, I have more rights to say the truth is one and follow it (the way of the salaf as sualih) and warn against to everything that's newly invented in the deen because if the truth was many there are no need to send the prophets and Messengers. Oh Allah do not misguide us after after you have guided. And guide those are misguided so that they don't misguide others
I was wondering if the first world problems of the Muslim minorities residing in Europe and America should really be of much practical interest to the larger Muslim Ummah that happens to populate third and second world countries? The western Muslims (be they scholars or laymen) generally didn't migrate to West for dawah purposes or the upliftment of the Ummah anyway. They mostly went there to enjoy the high life which comes with it's own pros and cons. Their scholarship is dealing with them the way they can, it's their problems. Dr. Yasir Qadhi keeps referring to "some 'alim in Timbaktu" and "had Ibn Taimiyyah been alive today he would be writing Londoniyya rather than Tadmuriyya" etc. Then why should majority of the Ummah that happens to live in "Timbaktu" even bother themselves with him? How can 21st century America/Europe be anywhere close 11th century Syria, Arabia, Persia and North Africa combined where Ibn Taimiyyah was addressing various doubts of the Ummah? "With all due respect" this whole podcast is reeking with elitist arrogance and somewhat demeaning the majority of Ummah that happens to be inhabiting "Timbaktu"! With all due respect this elitism is on the verge of some sort of a desi reverse racism. Furthermore "my jaw just dropped" at the point where he draws comparison between the state of western Muslims and the Makkan phase. Then after a few minutes he discusses how American Muslims must look forward to engagement in American politics. I am nothing compared to Yasir Qadhi when it comes to the knowledge of seerah. But with all due respect, the self sacrificing and all consuming nature of the Makkan phase d'awah is being compared to the luxury of American dream here.
But the issues of the first world are in fact issues within our countries within the east, with the internet and media the narratives these shayateen put forward are gaining more and more traction within our lands, look at the rise of femnism and liberalism within our so called "educated" classes, within our nations. If we can address these issues in the west then we can deal with them within our own countries inshallah.
Akhi @ my point is simple, Yasir Qadhi keeps referring to "some 'alim in Timbaktu" and "had Ibn Taimiyyah been alive today he would be writing Londoniyya rather than Tadmuriyya" etc. Then why should majority of the Ummah that happens to live in "Timbaktu" even bother themselves with him? How can 21st century America/Europe be anywhere close 11th century Syria, Arabia, Persia and North Africa combined where Ibn Taimiyyah was addressing various doubts of the Ummah?

Yassir Qadhi went to study with Freemasons. Why would any Muslim study with the likes of Tony Blair!? He probably had inferiority complex and now sold out his soul the Dunya by apostatising from the Deen.
I liked the podcast, but yes, like Linda Sarsour compared the struggles of Muslims today to slavery of blacks in America, sounds familiar, and so maybe he is kinda parroting that, idk. This is entertainment, not just teaching his experience. Like they said at the beginning, would he be facetious or serious, and they said "a little bit of everything". Peace.
Yousuf bin Mohammad "with all due respect this elitism is on the verge of some sort of desi reverse racism" what do you mean by this? Allah bless you, Ameen. always easy to distinguish the sincere hearts.
Yasir Qadhi has started crossing the red line. He has publicly said that he has left the aqeedah of the salaf and that is what moving on meant as he phrased it. If you are saying that aqeedah is no more important in this our generation because we are now dealing with atheism, LGBTQ, etc. because of these we should stop teaching people aqeedah which is the foundation of everthing u do in Islam. If your aqeedah is wrong any other things u do in Islam will not be accepted. Yasir Qadhi new ideology is just to be a muslim in this world in whatever way anyone wants whether or not it will be acceptable by Allah that does not matter. What really matters is to be able to westernized Islam in such ways it will be accepted to the world power for us to be able to be Americans muslims, British muslims etc.. Yasir Qadhi priority is for muslims to be acceptable by the world powers but their aqeedah being accepted by Allah or not in the hereafter is no more important in this our generation that muslims existence is being threatened in western world. This is a dangerous Ideology Yasir Qadhi.
Salaam dear brothers & sisters Stick to the salaf of this Ummah the blessed 3 generations which the prophet pbuh praised. And anyone who clings on their path without bringing their own* opinions involved. Be careful of connecting yourselves to the khalaf (the ones who are alive now) for they are alive and can be lead astray by worldly gains or any other whim/desire!. How many a people Allah had blessed with knowledge and they let shaytan get the better of them. And they chased dunya rather than akhira. Wallahi its enough for the sincere Muslim to follow the path of the ones I mentioned. And no doubt the sincere slave of Allah who frees himself/herself from arrogance and high self thought. Allah shall guide and bestow fiqh (understanding of his deen). May Allah keep us firm upon his deen and make us from those who tread the middle path and not the 2 extremes. Wasalaam.
Wow, Salman Al Awda the Ibn Taymiyya of our time? Who is he compared to Ibn Taymiyya!? Subhan Allah. Salman Awda, Sardar Hawaii are Ekhwaani Muslimoon. Hense Yasir Qadi is their student.
@@sugetsumillenium2112 no never Salafiyyah is not a sect, it is the true path. If you believe n follow quran and sunnah according to salaf (sahabas and followers) then you r on the right path. if u do what they used to not do then ur misguided. Yasir Qadhi's views have changed n he likes to cooperate with other sects.
asSalamualaikum my Brother, I feel like the harsh Salafi Dawah of the 90s and 2000s proved to be a superficial interpretation of a very rich islamic heritage, that is why there is a movement away from the more formalistic salafi approach towards something which speaks more to the heart. allah knows best
@@muhammada3749 salafiyah is not a sect?! The fact that you gave it a label separating it from other sects makes it a sect you moron. Typical idiot ignorant salafi comment LOL
It just feels wrong to listen to him. I just can't take him as a teacher. His words only place doubts in the heart of people about Islam. He calls every subject - a human development -, an attempt to understand God's wisdom. Then this is similar to perennialism. Why is he so sure of his Western-backed knowledge of Islam and not of how Muslim scholars have taught. All the time he blasts our ulamas as be completely retrograde and in the end, he says "I respect them ", that's not how true respect works... I feel, he should talk to Daniel Haqiqatjou to get his ideas correct. Some of what he says is correct and i don't say that he is a deviant or anything.
Yasir Qadhi potrays islam in such a complicated way so much so that only Yale graduates can understand. But lo and behold! among the first who answered the call were bedoins... So who needs Yasir Qadhi to teach us islam?
Jabalnur Jabalthur only circumstantial illustrations predominated the discussion. Madina remains exceptionally outstanding as a source of undiluted Islamic guidance. But when one has been shot by philosophical ideas then he thinks otherwise. Islam permits 100 % plagiarism so, we have to ignore this kind of confused ideas and copy 100 % from good Islamic teachings. May Allah guide him and us all toward the right path. May Allah make us firm on the path of undiluted Islam teachings. Ameen
Why so many dislikes? All these people yapping about Yale forget that Yasir Qadhi also studied in Madinah. Also very good series on the Seerah. Instead of going to Hyde Park and listen to fools like Shamsi you would learn more watching Yasir Qadhis Seerah . Young over zealous people who think that you can only be a scholar if you are a Shaykh Salih Al Fawzan sitting in Saudi-Arabia. 242 dislikes from Dawah man types.
@RealDeal441 Tell me, where does he undermine the importance of Aqeedah, Aqeedah is important I don't think anyone disagrees with that. He also doesn't mock them, he is criticizing people without naming them. If you recall this Khariji called Dawah Man made an entire video slandering Yasir Qadhi so before you accuse Yasir Qadhi of mocking I would direct your attention to self taught wikipedia Sheikhs like Dawah Man. Who think that after 2 years of studying they can refute scholars. Foolishness. Dawah Man didnt even do a goob job in refuting because he misquoted and misunderstood Yasir Qadhi a lot.
I wanted to ask a question -I am a 17 year old girl btw so excuse me if I don't understand some things- But first and foremost, I think Dr. Sheikh Yasir Qadhi is intellectual scholar very beneficial to Muslims Especially those in academia and the youth. Personally living in the US can be difficult at times with Islamophobia and people being ignorant of your religion. I feel like having scholars here in the US is a great blessing. Since you have people who understand you, and explain matters very clearly and carefully. And it really has helped me learn more about my deen Allhamduliah 😁💙 I feel like constant arguing and not having respect for another puts our Ummah down. If we all helped each other in times of distress and were there for each other's backs, no nations wouldn't mess with us. And you wouldn't see such horrendous and heartbreaking wars and genocides going on in Muslim countries. Were is the action. People can say a LOT but do very little--this goes to everyone including me. So why are people fighting/slandering the participants, I mean is this the way to come. Everyone makes mistakes, this makes us human. However, is this what Islam teaches us to call nasty names to people of knowledge. I am just puzzled by the nature of people. May Allah swt. Grant us knowledge, WISDOM, and understanding. This is so disgusting what is going on in this comments. Tomorrow this is going to be presented in front of us. What will be the excuse for calling them such derogatory names. I am so disgusted, disappointed, horrified at the nature of our Muslim community. This is NOT what our beautiful deen teaches us. The Prophet-peace and blessings be upon him- was a man full of wisdom, is this how he corrected and informed others? Also to point people are trying to get closer to their deen, put when they see this it just puts them down. This is pretty long, so forgive for that brother. But I am so unhappy what the toxicity in this comment sphere. May God grant our scholars righteousness and grant them the highest in Jannah. Also may Allah make you successful in this world and in the next. AMEEN 🤲🏼
His comments about refusal to take selfies and breaking ppls khatir(roughly translates to heart/emotions) reminds me of when the prophet (pbuh) accepted some milk he didn’t want that was offered to him by an old lady. Even tho he didn’t want it, he didn’t want to break her khatir. I think it’s a unease you must tolerate when you become a “known” scholar.
His is a victim of studying the creed of Ahlul Bidah and never clung to the Olama of Sunnah of today’s time to guide him while studying. This is why he never had a good relationship with the Olama there in Medina. Rather some of them like Sheikh Khalid Raddadi warned the students to stay away from him when he was a undergrad student
@@quantummovement8879 yeah. He said it's a minor issue comparatively, the key word being comparatively. In any case its a fiqhi issue, not an aqeeda one.

Mawlid is least matter of argument in this day and age. Whoever wants to celebrate mawlid can go ahead as long as they stick to shariah guidelines.
The true aqeedah of the first three generations of Islam is not something which was developed, rather when the likes of those astray groups such as the Jahmiyyah and Mu'tazilah began spreading their falsehood the scholars spoke out and expressed the correct Aqeedah. Ibn Taymiyyah and his student Ibn-ul-Qayyim did not bring anything new with regards to Aqeedah; they only reinforced the Aqeedah of the first three generations of Islam and refuted the astray groups of their times.
So many people are misunderstanding this interview. I think you guys need to do a followup interview in which all the misunderstandings are cleared up.
It's wrong to not give Scholars of the muslim world their due and to say that we have sufficient scholars in the west if thats what is being suggested if not forgive me.Particulularly when you have benefitted from that knowledge.Especially so if that also means its acceptable to learn Islam from non muslims.Think about where that will take us.
Does YQ really believe he has a place to promote his own ideology over the salaf who came before him? I used to look up to this guy but he is going the route Suhaib Webb is going. I won't be surprised if tomorrow he was getting triggered over gender pronouns.
That assumption is very extreme by the way. Suhaib won't dare criticize any state official and policy all of whom.yq has explicitly stated and defended
My favourite podcast but the presenters need to know which guests to let talk ie yq and which guests to have more input with. Just let him talk you guys interrupted maybe a little too much, BarakAllahu feekum though you guys are smashing it!
Yeah, it was a bit weird when yq was speaking about some really serious topic, sometimes even speaking about the Qur'an, and then they just respond with a joke 😕
Enjoyed this because of the guest Dr Yasir Qadhi A bit of constructive criticism in my opinion it was a bit too light hearted - too many jokes May Allah SWT accept your efforts
The problem lies in the fact his a student of knowledge himself so now his sitting with professors who are persuading him, the professors he learnt from maybe could meet these professors then more even playing field. His constantly Changing his views. But he does have a good grasp of the western Problems and it’s not the debate of the atharis and Ashreees as so many falling away from the deen
@Bouba Sane, do you know who is a kafir? Can you tell? Do you know how you will end? Fellow brother in Islam, let me give you the advice of great imam Abu Hanifa, he said it was better to deem 1000 Kumar as muslims than to attribute our to single muslim. It is important to hold our thoughts because ان السمع والبصر والفواد كل اولاءك كان عنه مسؤولا
@@alhassangangu4357 You're missing the entire point he's referring to when Yasir Qadhi went to Yale and by his own admission said he had a faith crisis. He's not making takfir of anyone since Yale is indeed a non Muslim school.
Also, to be technical takir does exist in Islam since the angels Harut and Marut made takfir of the magicians in Babylon. Takfir on individuals requires shurut (conditions) such as a person who is jahil, is forced to do kufr, has a moment of insanity, is not of mature age, did an act of kufr without intending, etc. The Muslim judges and scholars within a Muslim state judge people by these conditions because takfir has a hukm that is attached to it. Yes there are those who go to the extreme in takfir and confuse kufr akbar with kufr asghar, and kufr 'amali with kufr itiqadi, but takfir does exist and the brother you are responding to never made takfir on anyone to begin with. Also, Abu Hanifa's own student Abu Yusuf became a qadi (chief judge), one of their functions is to declare takfir, tabdi', etc on people when necessary so we can't pick and choose examples. Ahlus Sunnah are between the Khawarij who declare kufr without meeting the conditions and between the murji'ah who say that no one can be judged by action and statement.
@ subahanalah. Prophet and His companion didn't graduate or have PhD but manage to teach the ummah to the way of Islam. Thats isn't fair criticism toward who dissagree to Sheikh Yasir Qadhi
@@islam21c You guys have no fear of Allah? The nonsense this man spews is just crazy. How could you give him a platform from which he can spread his nonsense? Or is it about the number of views for you? Fear Allah and stop what you're doing. I'm not just talking about Yaser Qadhi (though he is one of the worst). But all of those so-called "du'aat" that are not upon the way of the Salaf. You get a few laughs, now, but all the nonsense being propagated from your channel will come to haunt you on a day where your closest relative will run away from you.
Ikhwanism, watering down the religion, belittling the scholars, doubting major concepts, how much more misguided can become in a sitting with these types of individuals. Ajeeb!
Timeless principles don't change, their proofs hasn't changed. Today's reality is not significantly different from the past. Others' experiences and from their communities is knowledge for us.
@@ankhmorpok1497 I stand by what I said. We can deal with modernity, what is there not to be able to deal with? When I said today's reality isn't significantly different from the past I wasn't referring to advancing technologically and across other aspects of the human domain not ignoring that we too have declined with becoming spoilt human beings, distracted by living dramas, deluded etc. I was talking more about basic living structures, objectives, religion etc. That still stands, we're just living those realities in this modern age. Anyway the gist of my comment was that time is not the issue because God created it and therefore His religion works for anytime because it is not bound by it. Perhaps you're not acquainted with history, have you heard of islamic Spain where muslim civilisation were thriving whilst Europe was living in the dark ages? And then down the line due to internal conflicts and political issues, Islam lost that by God's plan and will becoming a shell of its former self. It hasn't got anything to do with modernity or you probably thought I was of the thinking that technology is haram? Hahaha. We're discussing something completely different here. My comment was a specific one on Islamic principles not changing and their proofs still preserved with our Prophetic tradition. That is a fact. If someone wants to change it for themselves or misinform others then they will be refuted for their deviation and they will bear the sin. That's all there is to it. Don't confuse human products with what God sent as invincible. The former changes the latter does not.
YQ has lost all credibility in the face of the scholars of Islam. He has flipped flopped so much and has been outed as an innovator. Even Jews envy his ability to reinterpret words to mean other things other than what they plainly mean.
I LOVE AND LIKE SHEIKH YASIR Qadhi's mind set I have the same though of course not all of it I am saying about the disunity of Ummah..... Why should we separate and make a group while all of them are Believing in One God And Last Messenger.... Yes there may be different in way of understanding in laws but throw all of away keep them separately but I am saying is pleased let's reunite again......
Putting reason before revelation on matters of belief opens the door to doubts and many more versions about ghayb, much more than the versions of bible out there and none of which would be correct. Physics deals with things that could be observed/measured and thus can developed. The unseen matters are not and hence the comparison between Newtonian and Einsteinian physics is not adequate.
I used to follow Yasir Qadhi and admire him. He lost his credibility when he started saying very unwise stuff, getting too close to liberals, trying to please the kuffar. May Allah guide him.
Slmz, Very interesting talk. How would someone be able to sign up or subscribe for that online course??? From what i gather... Newton and Einstein were basically onto the same thing but the knowledge and understanding of those around them IS the major difference. Imagine if I You and were to teach the exact same lesson to two different groups of people. You have a bunch of modern people and im teaching cave men... Whos gonna be more successful???
This Hadīth refutes Yasir Qadhi: Ibrāheem Ibn Abdur Rahmān Al ‘Udhri reports that the Messenger ﷺ said: _"This knowledge is carried in every generation by the trustworthy ones, they repel from it the distortions of those who go beyond bounds, the fabrications of those who fabricate, and the false interpretations of the ignorant"_ *يَحْمِلُ هذا العلمَ من كلِّ خلَفٍ عُدُولُهُ ، ينفونَ عنه تحريفَ الغالينَ ، وانتحالَ المُبْطِلينَ ، وتأويلَ الجاهِلينَ* [الألباني، تخريج مشكاة المصابيح ٢٣٩ • مرسل، لكن روي موصولا من طريق جماعة من الصحابة، وصحح بعض طرقه الحافظ العلائي]
This guy is sick sick. Please stay away from Yasir Qadhi like literally what’s wrong with translating for a sheikh, I don’t care if I’ve PHD in some fields of science but if someone who’s better than me in knowledge comes then I’ll strive to learn from him. If translating for someone makes you arrogant and prideful idk man how does this guy claim he’s a knowledge. My man Humble yourself.
Dude, I hope Yasir Qadhi doesn't get killed by some crazy young Muslim, or some crazy old one who still believes the same things as when they were 20. Yasir Qadhi is way more rational, mature, and educated than the hosts. It seems to me that he's very close to coming out as being an atheist or an agnostic.
So is the message here that Muslims need to find how Islam can work/fit into the "modern" democratic atheistic system and we need to use "reason" and "logic" to reform the Deen?! Sorry akhi our lives,rational, reasoning, logic etc all should revolve around and conform to the Deen based on the Kitab and Sunnah based with the understanding of the pious predecessors
@@JSdeen87 Are you following the Quran and sunnah when making that statement! What is foolish when people out of their depth are taking on knowledgeable brothers like yasir Qadhi, stick to yr lane!
@@abumaliha7266 this is the way of the jews and christian follow the sheikh even if he distorts the religion and makes major and do not challange him and correct him because he is a scholar, disobey allah and obey ths sheikh. this is your methodology
