  • You peaple are scared of Shaykh Hamza Yusuf.

  • 101 likes, 100 Dislikes

  • how about this. Beware of any so called muslim who tells to beware of another muslim. because in this day and age the last thing that we need is disunity. we should as muslims of this age take the good from every muslim and learn the bad so we can better our selfs. but this whole talk of dont listen to so and so and dont lesten to this sect, thats what the Shytaan wants is for us to keep divide among our selfs so we can never be strong.

  • @itsoutahere

    As a muslim it is our duty to stop the destruction of our deen from within. No one can change the quran so instead they beautify innovations and this must be stopped. This is not dividing the Ummah it is stopping the destruction of it. If abu Bakr and Umar accepted innovators of their time and accepted all the deviations that popped up after the prophet (peace be upon him) the religion would have been destroyed from then and there would be no Islam left today.

  • If u have anything u dont understand or any problems, just follow al-Quran and Sunnah. that should guide you rather than just blindly follow what people said about how to do things in Islam.

  • Im sure InshaAllah they both are good men, but maybe a misunderstanding exists

  • he is teaching about aqeedah, surely he knows wat his talking abt, when you ask ,ask Allah only !

  • this guy is a prick

  • ugh. he is just spreading prejudice. Hamza Yusuf has brought thousands to Islam, may Allah reward him.

  • This guy is the Devil's Agent.

  • do u know ancient arabic?we can't rely on translations,we need to read the texts in its original language(Qur’an 16:43)first he said he don't want name calling but straight he start to give names This, this and this one are deviated.what is most ironic is that these shayks who give warnings against ´blind following´ are expecting that they are followed blindly.i have read many articles from these "deviated" shayks and have NEVER read anything even slightly related to shirk for example.

  • Ashari and Maturidi are accepted schools of theology in mainstream Islam.

  • Here is a suggestion for all people who say Hamza Yusuf is not a good imam. Listen to five of his full lectures. If you can find a SINGLE thing wrong that he says, then tell me what it is. Because I have never heard him say a single thing wrong.

  • Research what the meaning of durood Sharif is!! Maybe you don't know what I mean.

    Allah Humma Saleleh Alaa Sayedina Mohammud WA ALA ALEH Sayedina Mohammud Wabarik Wasalim... Are you not from among these people Allah refers too??

  • AND THESE COWARDS REJECTS 1200YEARS ULEMAS AND BELIEFS..! ACTUALLY WHO R THEY!!! DAJJAL OR OTHER BIG FITHNAS??

  • WHY THIS BASTARD TERRORIST CONVERTED TO ISLAM?? BLAME MUSLIM LEADERS??? DIVIDE UMMAH AND MAKE FITHNA AMONG MUSLIMS/.???

    DID U EVER THINK ABOUT WHY THESE JEWS AND CRISTIANS CONVETRED TO US??AND FOLLOWING 18TH CENTURY WAHHABISM IN THE NAME OF SALAF??

    THEY R LIARS,THEY R ALWAYS AGAINST US WITH THE HELP OF AMERICA AND ISRAEL-SAUDI.. SO BE AWARE OF THESE SHAITHAANS YUSUF ESTES,AR GREEN AND TERRORIST BILAL PHILIPS!!!

  • @harma2017 Do I smell a rafidi? Hmm, I think I do.

  • search it in youtube

  • here another funny video

    scheikh nazims clearing words

    very funny

  • I AGREE WITH THE WARNING AGAINST HAMZA YUSUF. the garbage some times he says is mind boggling. most scholars are hounded and labeled, this guy has access to the white house...be careful guys.

  • Shaykh Hamza Yusuf Talks about Sufism /watch?v=Dac1m8_599Y

  • Comment removed

  • Bilal is right.

  • does anyone kno of a live debate between this phillips and ither hamza or the so called sufis - so much of this mans teachings displays his superficial knowledge- totally misleading- his undestanding of history & sufis is weak- his selective quotes not in context & no understanding of life after death- even his concept of what is worship is faulty- wish they would research & live amongst the muslims who seek only Allah's pleasure & then only open their mouths-half knowledge is dangerous

  • You do not ask anyone for anything so that you can gain paradise?

    I ask no one for anything not for selfish gain of paradise, but to not bother others and to be self-reliant. Others ask me for help and I gladly give it. Not to gain paradise. To help others.

    HIslam is a man-made myth. God does not need prophakes.

    My wonderful, brilliant girlfriend is now so happy to be ex Muslim.

    She says most women do not like beards. Why do Muslims have beards?

  • @robertgift Of course God doesn't need prophets. As a matter of fact, God doesn't need anything. God doesn't need to create humankind . But He did. He doesn't need the sun and the planets but He created them. It is us humans who are in need of prophets because God CHOSE to deliver His message to us through them. Can you learn cardiology yourself from a book ? No, you need qualified individuals to teach you that. The same with religion.

  • @FareezLovesMe Thank you.

    What messages does God convey to us through prophakes?

    Prophakes teach nothing of importance. Just laughable unneeded man-made nonsense with some truths and good points.

    Do prophakes communicate to people of other lands and languages?

    Obviously, God chose a poor method of communication if through prophakes.

    God gave humans wonderful minds and consciences and justice.

    No prophakes needed.

  • @robertgift Also, you have misunderstood the true message of the hadith above, as apparently the so-called scholar in it. The Quran - which you obviously never read - is replete with exhortations to do good to the poor and needy, those who need help etc and so too are the Hadiths. Islam criticises those who pray but yet refuse to render help to the orphans, the needy and such. Read for instance Chapter 24:22 ; 2 : 83 ; 14:31; 2 : 262-263 ; 107 : 1- 7 .

  • may allah bring us to the truth and true islam, thanks bilal philips for guiding us, may allah guide us better.

    I have nothing gainst hamza or nazim, we all are muslim brothers, and only allah will punish us if we are wrong right, we dont need to punish each other our selves.,

  • When you still have room for hate in your heart then you are not filling your heart with Allah(swt)

  • @ILUVMuhammad1 : Fully agree!

  • "Iyyaka na'budu wa iyyaka nasta'een" says it all really. We call upon none other than Allah for help, as did Rasulullah salallahu alayhi wa sallam. Jazak Allah khayr for exposing the deviants.

  • @fsacoor What a shame cult members calling others Kafir. One day you'll see how wrong you are

  • Muslims call other Muslims Disbelivers Kafirs!!! Fantastic wawooo

  • (O_o) How about our leaders or Imams contact the person or publisher DIRECTLY and PRIVATELY instead of addressing the issue by means of slandering another Muslim publicly, thus creating controversy and division among Muslims. This is what rap artist do to get publicity, such as 50cent. "O you who believe! Avoid much suspicion, for some suspicions are a sin. Do not spy on one another, nor backbite one another. Would one of you love to eat the flesh of his dead brother?.." Qur'an [49:12]

  • Masha'Allah, very good lecture by Sheikh Bilal Philips. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala reward you for reminding us :) JazakAllah khayr!

  • Be aware of the Salafi Islam - I'm glad I left the Salaffiya dogma

  • @msalafiya1 <---Zionist Troll

  • O you

    have Taqwa of Allah سبحانه و تعالى and don't say anything but the truth

    beware of misguided practices and beliefs

    Have Ikhlaas (Sincerity) to Allah and don't let ignorant, misguided people lure you away from the path

    Surely sufis today is not more than, superstitious practices and beliefs

    and you'll se wherever this is prelevants; grave worshipping and calling upon the dead

    they have turned Islam into that which is done similar like the Catholics

    and such Islam is free from

  • anyone who hates is a fool, doesn't understand the deen, and needs a happy meal. humble yourselves people.

  • Allah سبحانه و تعالى said,

    يَوْمَ لَا يَنفعُ مَالٌ وَلَا بَنُونَ

    The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons will avail,

    إِلَّا مَنْ أَتَى اللَّهَ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ

    Except him who brings to Allah a clean heart

    (Qur'an Surah ash-Shu'ara Ayaat 88-89)

    إِنَّهُ مَن يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةَ

    ..Verily, whosoever sets up partners (in worship) with Allah,

    then Allah has forbidden paradise to him...

    (Qur'an Surah al-Maedah Ayah 72)

  • Do not find yourself meeting Allah سبحانه و تعالى with shirk

    beware of it, as Jannah (Paradise) has been forbidden for it

    'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (رضى الله عنه) said,

    I asked the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم), "What is the greatest sin in the

    Sight of Allah?"

    He said, قَالَ ‏"‏ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِلَّهِ نِدًّا وَهْوَ خَلَقَكَ

    "That you set up a rival unto Allah though He Alone created you."

    I said, "That is indeed a great sin..... [Bukhari]

    So beware of the sufi misleaders

  • they will burn in hell they have no love of the prophet

  • salafis they are lost

  • @MrHarryy12345 <===Zionist troll

  • @MuhamedBegBushati91 There is so much Hate within Islam, the Salafi Islam

  • Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) "I possess no power over benefit or harm to myself except as Allah wills. If I had the knowledge of the Ghaib (Unseen), I should have secured for myself an abundance of wealth and no evil should have touched me. I am but a warner and a bringer of glad tidings unto people who believe." (al-A'raaf Ayah 188)

    O sufis, come back to the correct understanding that was sent down by Allah سبحانه و تعالى

    and stop following the misguidance of those who call you to Shirk

  • Hamza Yusuf is a good man, why all this hate to other Muslims???

  • @msalafiya1 it's not we just hate him he is not speaking the truth he is in a Sekt in Islam we call them ( Sufisem ) ... They are also Kafirs!

  • What a fool, and I mean that all the way down. This is why I choose who I listen to WISELY.

  • Islam should be followed as practiced by our righteous predecessors, Salaf us Salih (May Allah be pleased with them. Ameen) & by sticking to the Quran and the Sunnah.

    Sufism is a 'deviation'.Sad Hamza Yusuf is trying to do to Islam what Christians did to Christianity, where God is almost forgotten and most pray to Jesus (pbuh) amongst other things.

    Sufism : The Deviated Path

  • @Objectivity1234

    People who follow the sufi path do not worship Prophet Muhammad saws, and they do not worship saints either. The basis of tasawwuf is purification of the heart.

  • The Video titled 'Hamza Yusuf prooves that Islam is the one true religion in 47 seconds ' is WRONG. I can't believe he said what he said in that video. May Allah swt have mercy on his soul. Nothing he said in that video is true.

  • I love Hamza Yusuf. He is a very intelligent man. I trust him more than anyone to teach me about Islam.

  • @briangpratt You trust him more than anyone to teach you about Islam? Wow...do you not own a Quran or a Bukhari? Very easy to understand and any questions you have should be refered to sound scholars, not innovation based sheikhs.

  • @Objectivity1234

    Hamza Yusuf is a sound scholar. The madhabs scholars are sound scholars. Those who follow the so called salafi dawa have a tendency to exaggerate bidah. Their reasoning on this issue is unsound. I take my knowledge from reliable madhab scholars.

  • @Objectivity1234

    the Messenger of Allah (salla’llahu 'alayhi wasallam) said: “Surely there is in the body a small piece of flesh; if it is sound, the whole body is sound, and if it is corrupted, the whole body is corrupted, and that is surely the heart”. (Bukhari)

  • Rasul Allah saws is an intercessor. This is mainstream Islam. It does not mean you pray to Rasul Allah saws.

  • @briangpratt I can't believe you just said that. He isn't the intercessor, this isn't Christianity with Jesus (pbuh) is the person people pray too in order to get through to God. You don't get to say what is mainstream Islam. Allah swt perfected our religion for us, no one has the right to change it and make it 'mainstream'. Follow the Quran and Sunnah/Ahadith and only worship and pray to Allah swt.

  • @Objectivity1234

    Hadrat Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah’s Messenger (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) said: I shall be pre-eminent amongst the descendants of Adam on the Day of Resurrection and I will be the first intercessor and the first whose intercession will be accepted (by Allah). (Muslim)

  • @Objectivity1234

    Hadrat Abu Sa’id (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah’s Messenger (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) said: Some of my people will intercede for a large number, some for a tribe, some for a group, and some for a single man, till they enter Paradise. (Tirmidhi)

  • @Objectivity1234

    If I ask you to make dua for me, then you are interceding for me too. This is perfectly acceptable. In fact, it is recommended that we ask pious Muslims to pray for us. Because the duas of pious Muslims are more likely to be accepted.

  • @Objectivity1234

    Another type of intercession (tawassul) is when we call on Allah by his beautiful names. For example "Oh Ar Rahman, be merciful with me."

  • @Objectivity1234

    Tawassul is not shirk. It is intercession. It means you ask someone to pray FOR you, it does not mean you pray TO them.

  • @Objectivity1234

    Some bidah is not forbidden. Good bidah (saying sadaqah Allah hu atheem what Allah says is true) after you read Quran. Obligatory bidah (writing Islamic books).

  • Salafi Islam seems to be a religion of killing and Hate

  • @Quran871- Uthman don fodio, umar mukhtar, Salahuddin,all sufis,and more- just ask the million russian muslims where it was death 2 advance islam since early 1900- who kept islam alive there- west call it uderground islam- muslims call it sufic islam- ask the chechnyans and bosnians who kept the islam alive there- the sufis did not go about killing muslims and making takfir on muslims. they keep the essence of islam alive in practice, not by interpreted books,by followng a chain from early islam

  • My brother, live amongst the people in sahel, maghreb to konya in their zawiyyas & mayb u will understand islam. Leave your books and experience islam. If your essece is body, you dead when yr heart stops, but if u consider yr body a cage 2 the soul,then you not dead. u will tell me tat it is another barzakh. I ask, where is this barzakh. in our world or another world. we in the same world.The pious dead r free and their graves expanded and the rest, graves r contracted. know b4 u teach & mslead

  • @hudfadz Hamza yusuf is a dumbass

  • @Quran871 If you don't like him keep your mouth shut. Its better than talking bad about another Muslim scholar. Wallahi. Their is actually a hadith that says that it is better to keep quiet than to open your mouth towards idle talk. I seriously don't ever open my mouth and say bad things about people like Bilal Phillips or Yusuf Estes because they are very knowledgeable MashAllah and they are respected people. I'm not going to hate them because of some stupid reason because they are Salafi.

  • @MohiTal2e3 Lol you know nothing about Yusuf Estes and I have spoken to him. He is not Salafi. You need to visit his website and educate yourself. Yusuf Estes is much more knowledge than Hamza Yusuf will ever be. He has many articles on deviation and sects. islamnewsroom is the site.

  • @Objectivity1234

    Yusuf Estes seems like a nice person. I don't think he would say bad things about Hamza Yusuf.

  • @Objectivity1234 Don't judge any ones knowledge. No one is able to judge that or even say that besides Allah. I've met Yusuf Estes as well. He is an amazing brother MashAllah, both are. They both greatly knowledgeable in Islam but in mostly in different areas. Hamza Yusuf learned at the schools in Mauritania and Yusuf Estes studied in Morocco and Egypt. I'm not saying anything against him. Your focusing on the point that I called him Salafi sorry my bad. And dont ever degrade respected scholars.

  • @Quran871 We should never speak of anyone like this. Allah swt will judge everyone, you and I included. They can't hide from Allah swt and if they are doing something wrong and going against his revelations and the sunnah of the Prophet (pbuh) they will be brought to account on the day of resurrection.

  • @MohiTal2e3 They fought jihad against kafirs. What are you talking about? Sufis are the engine if bidaah

  • @mhamadac Hamza Yusuf is a Sufi. I hate Sufis like I hate rats.

  • @Quran871 Why? Because the the majority creed of the Sufis have been in existence since the 9th century and people like you made up stuff in the 17th century?

  • @justmuslim3

    Get over it idiot, i am pretty sure hamza is smart enough not to seek help from graves, i think he is a little more intelligent then that.

  • Shaykh Hamza Yusuf is a scholar.

    If you have nothing good to say, don't say it at all.

  • relax people, he is free to say what he likes, if you dont like something, look the other way

  • this man should be shot. disagreeing is one thing, with another man of Knowledge. but in Public shows Bilal Philips has no adab......a real sheikh would not do this

  • @funkyfaz55 Please stop talking. You should be shot. Bilal Philips is better then you and you should show some respect. And by the way, you should not say things that you know nothing about. Imam Bukhari has publicly warned against certain people and their chains of narrations, it is permissible to warn against someone. Perhaps you should do your research about who you are listening to.

  • @funkyfaz55 Shame on you, what sort of muslim says a worldly knowledge scholar should be shot? Allah swt sees all. He is giving his opinion and ensuring all sides are heared. He is a great scholar. Don't be so judgement. If you have proof show it, don't just give me an opinion.

  • These stupid idiots make me laugh.

    Sunni till I die

  • Wow cant believe you guys are trying to defend batil (sufi sect)

  • Comment removed

  • @putronogo I ask Allah(swt) to eliminate the modern Sufi fitnah

  • Who are these people, including Ben Philips that come out and say "not" to listen to other teachers and scholars? I've never even herd of Ben Philips? What are his qualifications? Who does he think he is? Hamza Yusuf has way more knowledge and qualification than this Ben Phillips. People like Ben Phillips give a bad name to Islam by sitting there and badgering others. I wouldn't even spit in the direction of someone like Ben Phillips. Grow up man. Get some manners will you?

  • @Peacefulrythm1 if he gets some manners then will you learn to read Bilal philips correctly?

  • @Peacefulrythm1 Who are you to talk about Bilal Philips? Your knowledge of islam is limited. Great imams such as Bukhari have practiced and explained that is permissible to warn against people and it is not considered backbitting. And for you and that other ignorant muslim. Bilal Philips was educated at the university of Medina, and holds a Phd. He is heavily qualified. Matter of fact, he is not the only person to warn against Hamza Yusuf. Perhaps you should do your research.

  • @FaisalQassim Oh ok I see. Bilal Phillips went to one of those free Saudi islamic schools where you don't pay anything. They use that to draw you in. They teach you to become salafi and wahabi. Two of the most fitnah creating sects in Islam. All i see are salafi's and Wahabi's creating these video's on youtube slandering others. Don't have to follow a madheb? Sorry didn't no the GREAT Bilal phillips had more knowledge than Imam abu hanifa. Let's all jump the salafi bandwagon than?

  • @Peacefulrythm1 You think because its free for the student that it doesnt cost anything? you think because its free that they are teaching you garbage? falsehood? If you had any decency in you, you could understand that they never deviate from the Quran and Sunnah. "I leave behind me two things, the Quran and my Sunnah and if you follow these you will never go astray." - Prophet Muhammed(pbuh)

  • @Peacefulrythm1 Its unfortunate that you think what salafi or wahabi is. They are definately not sects, do your research. These are words used to insult those who refuse to deviate from the Quran and Sunnah. I dont know what video your watching, but there is no slandering in this video. You might want to look up the definition. Bilal is saying the same thing various scholars have been saying for time. Your knowledge is limited. you believe islamic hype. Probably endorsed by Hamza

  • To the people who will curse the Sufis:

    You can't look at one extreme Sufi and think ALL of them are like that. Their are very few extreme Sufis, most Sufis are Ashari and don't do extreme things. Meaning I'm not going to listen to a Salafi or Wahhabi and think everything they say is wrong, I take the things I like, and the things I disagree, I either let it out the other ear or I see what good I can do with it.

  • You're just using the term Wahabbi to belittle them. They don't refer themselves by that name. It is youse haters who use it. Alhamdulillah i ain't Sufi. Praise be to Allah (swt)

  • @DJSHAHIR My bad, I don't really mean to call them Wahhabi to belittle them. I don't hate Wahhabis. I dislike some extremist Wahhabi teachings and I ALSO dislike some extremist Sufi teachings. Real Sufis dont call themselves Sufis. There is always the extremism on both sides. Yes, Praise be to Allah!

  • @cadburyoldgold It is sinful to wish death upon another Muslim brother.

  • @cadburyoldgold And may Allah guide your stupid self for wanting to get rid of another muslim. You think Allah will answer your dua to get rid of another muslim brother? Grow up. May Allah educate low life people like you who bring fitnah and confusion to our religion.

  • @cadburyoldgold I suggest you to get rid of this hateful comment, wishing death upon someone, even indirectly is a sin. A really big sin. May Allah forgive me and you.

  • Bilal Philip is the GREATEST WAHABI Spreading Fitnah !!

  • @yuzfigo Go fuck yourself dickhead! That's all you can come up with since you have no facts.

  • @yuzfigo Yea do it coward! u backed off already u big mouth! ppl like u are empty drums..which make lot of noise!!! Fuck Sufism!!!

  • @DJSHAHIR Astaghfirullah. Don't say that about Sufism. If you consider yourself a Salafi than your not abiding by there real morals. There are a lot of great old AND modern Sufi Shaykhs that are praised by Salafi Shaykhs and vice versa. Think before opening your mouth or posting something like this online. If you consider yourself Salafi ask yourself if the Salafs cursed the beliefs or opinions of other people.

  • @MohiTal2e3: I don't consider myself a salafi. I'm a Muslim. period. So u r saying shaikh nazim is right? hwo abt u? dyu condiser urself a sufi?

  • @DJSHAHIR No most Sufis don't consider themselves Sufis except the ones who do forbidden things on graves and dance. And to be honest, I dont think that Shaykh Nazim is always right Lol, I feel bad saying that because I am backbiting about him. But I don't follow Shaykh Nazim, but this bad image of Salafis and Sufis need to stop, and also this name calling. The ummah is in a great crysis thats what matters most right?

  • What is your explanation of this Hadeeth Al-Sahih? أن رجلا ضرير البصر, أتى النبي - صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم – فقال : ادع الله أن يعافيني قال : إن شئت دعوت لك وإن شئت صبرت فهو خير لك قال : فادعه, قال : فأمره أن يتوضأ فيحسن وضوءه ويدعو بهذا الدعاء : اللهم إني أسألك وأتوجه إليك بنبيك محمد, نبي الرحمة, إني أتوجه بك إلى ربي, في حاجتي هذه, لتقضى لي, اللهم فشفعه في .

  • Hamza Yusuf's Qualifications > Bilal Philip's Qualifications

    Unfortunately us Muslims are EVIL to each other. Damn straight I said it, EVIL. Hamza Yusuf studied 20 years all over Classical Islamic Schools. Bilal Philips is a convert who makes speeches. But since Hamza Yusuf follows the way of our prophet and is modest, polite, caring and steadfast we badmouth him.

    Curse you people who insult a man as knowledgeable as Hamza Yusuf! If you disagree thats fine, but be respectful and intellectual!

  • @mhamadac Bro Bilal Philips, and Hamza they both converted, check bilal philips Educatition you come to know that he is more educated then Hamza, i came up Hamza sayin women can lead pray... anyway i love both!

  • @mhamadac If that's the case, a Uni graduate is more qualified than the prophet Muhammad (saw), does that mean he's more righteous than him?? Since when was qualifications was used to introduce God fearing people?

    I was fan of Hamza Yusuf before, until i found out his Sufi ways. Alhamdulillah the Ahlus Sunna wal Jammah or Salaf are growing like never before. Praise be to Allah(swt)

  • @mhamadac such an ignorant commen ; "Bilal Philips is a convert who makes speeches" learn about him and then criticise....

  • @mhamadac Hamza Yusuf doesnt have any degrees. but Billal is highly qualified.

  • @mhamadac Do you have any idea what sufism is about.

  • @mhamadac And just so you know, the prophet(pbuh) has warned you to NEVER curse anyone. Bilal Philips is accurate in his claims. He is far more intelligent and knowledgeable then you and Hamza Yusuf put together. You should ask yourself, since hes studied for "20 years all over Classical islamic schools" why he does what he does, and why VARIOUS scholars have warned against Hamza Yusuf. Use your brain.

  • The general rule is this, not qualified from Saudi based institutions and does not follow Saudi version of Islam then not to be listened to and is immediately categorised as a Sufi which in their opinion is a Mushrik . Instead of appreciating diversity of Scholary opinion in Islam it is used to spread hatred among us much like the old tactics of the colonialist occupiers of Muslim lands. Sometimes makes me wonder if these guys are working with them by dividing the us against each other.

  • @mhamadac Typing an opinion doesn't make it true. Just by your reply you know nothing of Scholar Bilal Philips nor of his education, nor of how many years he has worked in spreading the truth of Islam. Innovation is not permitted regardless of your opinion. The Quran and Sunnah/Ahadith is all Muslims need. The Quran is explicit in stating that SECTS and deviation is not accepted. You are also hearing things that don't exist. There are no insults in this video.

  • @mhamadac I recommened you visit the deen show and huda tv and peace tv and listen to the imans, sheikhs and scholars there.

  • @mhamadac Verily, All Praise is due to Allah. We praise Him, and seek His help and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah, Most High, from the evils of our own selves and from our wicked deeds. Whomever Allah guides cannot be misguided, and whomever He leads astray cannot be guided. I testify that there is no true God worthy of being worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner or associate.

  • @mhamadac [Reported by Muslim] and in another narration, "every newly invented matter (in religion) is a bid'ah and every bid'ah is a dalaalah (going astray) and every dalaalah is in the Fire." [Reported by At-Tirmithee and it is saheeh].

    In another warning the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: "Whoever introduces into this affair of ours something that we have not commanded it is to be rejected." [Reported by Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim].

  • @mhamadac The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: "He among you who witnesses an evil, let him change it with his hand, if he cannot do that, then by his tongue, if he cannot do even that, then with his heart, and this is the weakest faith." [Reported by Muslim].

    Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'lla) said: "It is not for a believer, male or female, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have an option in their decision.

  • @mhamadac And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in plain error." [Qur'aan, Al-Ahzaab, 33:36] A serious issue appears to have arisen in our MSA and it is that of deviant teachings that have crept out and are threatening everyone in the MSA. I believe that everyone has sincere intentions to learn about their Deen, however the problem is the sources where this knowledge is acquired.

  • @mhamadac As Muslims we must warn one another of danger when it appears. As Allah (Glorified and Exalted) states: "And Help one another in Al-Birr and At-Taqwa (virtue, righteousness and piety) and do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allah. Verily, Allah is Severe in punishment." [Al-Maidah 6:2].

  • @mhamadac After certain deviant people were exposed for their deviant teachings someone took it upon themselves to protect these misguided so-called Sheikhs and to speak up on their behalf. Thinking in the best of ways towards whomever sent out that message, we will think that the person who sent out that message did not understand the seriousness and the magnitude of the issues involved. Therefore, in all ernestness THIS IS A PLAIN WARNING.

  • @mhamadac Do not get trapped in arguments claiming that Muslims must Unite under all circumstances and so forth. This is not the way of the early Muslims in particular, and Muslims of all times in general. It cannot be, since Allah clearly tells us to ENJOIN GOOD AND FORBID EVIL. May Allah guide us all to the straight path, Ameen.

  • @mhamadac Saleh As-Saleh's in his "Warning The Muslims Against Deviant Creeds and Methodologies," clearly and without a doubt exposes the deviant teaching of those who stray from the Quran and Sunnah and cause fitnah and misguidance amongst the Muslims. As-Saleh states "the case of Nuh Ha Mim Keller is very much representative of those who follow the late Ash-'arite scholastic theology and share a brand of mysticism and blind imitation of Mathaahib.

  • @mhamadac The dangerous aspect is the deception approach, which is used by those who hold such concepts. In this regard, one does not see a great deal of difference between the concepts and approach of Nuh Ha Mim and those of another person by the name of Hamza Yoosuf" (229).

  • @mhamadac They seem to hold the same methodologies and thoughts and as everyone will see, this is not an attack on them per se, but a warning against deviant philosophies and since they adhere to these philosophies they must be warned against. We ask Allah to guide them and us to the straight path.

  • @mhamadac As-Saleh states that "Today mystic Sufis attempt to influence the Muslims, especially in the West (due to the inability of many Muslims to read the original Arabic texts), by presenting themselves as followers of "mainstream or traditional Islam," and that those who expose the corrupt doctrines of esoteric Sufism are named 'extremists.' They [claim] that they are "lovers of humanity," and stress the call for "Unity with diversity," meaning that the Muslim should

  • @mhamadac "understand and tolerate" the different philosophies among Muslims misleadingly claiming that the basic foundations of the creed ('Aqeedah) are agreed upon by all Muslims, but there is diversity in the branches of the religion!" (As-Saleh, 231). However, this is not the Islam that the scholars of the Sunnah including Imam Abu Haneefah, Imam Maalik, Imam Ash-Shaafi'ee, and Ahmad Bin Hanbal (May Allah's Mercy be upon them) .

  • @mhamadac fought so hard and were punished and tortured trying to preserve. The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: "By He in Whose Hand is my soul! You will enjoin righteousness and forbid evil, or Allah will send a punishment upon you from Him. Then, you will supplicate to Him, but He will not accept your supplication (if you don't enjoin good and forbid evil)." [Reported by Imam Ahmad and At-Tirmidhi].

  • @mhamadac The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: "By He in Whose Hand is my soul! You will enjoin righteousness and forbid evil, or Allah will send a punishment upon you from Him. Then, you will supplicate to Him, but He will not accept your supplication (if you don't enjoin good and forbid evil)." [Reported by Imam Ahmad and At-Tirmidhi].

  • @mhamadac Just like the Christians did with Jesus (pbuh) with their corruption and innovation in worshiping Jesus, praying to him, statues in holy places, praying to them, so on and so forth. Now people like this are trying to do this to Islam. May Allah swt protect us from the evil path and keep us on the middle straight path. Ignorance isn't your problem Mhamadac, but the illusion of knowledge is. Allah swt knows best.

  • @mhamadac Also you don't have the right to curse anyone. Only person I see being evil here is you with your condescending comment. How does he follow the way of your prophet when he is innovating?

  • @mhamadac Saleh As-Saleh continues stating that "according to these [corrupt] mystics, those who expose the corrupt philosophies of mysticism, Shee'ism, scholastic theology, and so forth, are against the unity of the Ummah and that they are extremists (231). But once again this is not Islam this is the way of the Christians, the misguided people, the people of deviance and innovation,

  • @mhamadac and those who hate the Sunnah because Muslims enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil and fear no one other than Allah (Glorified and Exalted).This is the way of the Sahabah, the Salaf As-Saleh (The Righteous Predecessors), and the scholars of the Sunnah. We do not love everyone, nor should we. As Muslims we love for the sake of Allah and we hate for the sake of Allah. Allah (Glorified and Exalted) does not love everyone, Allah (Glorified and Exalted)

  • @mhamadac "loves those who submit to His command and worship none but Him, while He hates those who reject it and associate partners with Him in worship. May Allah, the Most High, guide those who were deceived by the mystic paths to the truth" (As-Saleh 232).

    "It is not easy for anyone to stand against the way of the truth. The struggle between the path of falsehood and that of the truth will continue until the time that the Hour will be established.

  • @mhamadac What is important is that the Muslim dies on the Sunnah and not the Bi'dah. He, therefore, should seek the truth to succeed in this life and in the next to come.

    One of the forces of Bid'ah is mysticism, which is a strange body that feeds on ignorance. Ignorance is the fertile soil for the growth of deception, which is the main weapon of the mystics. SUNNI ORTHODOX MUSLIMS. FOLLOW QURAN AND SUNNAH/AHADITH. READ DR LAURENCE BROWNS BOOK THE LAST COMMANDMENT.

  • @mhamadac Knowledge, however, is the impenetrable barrier that stands to protect the Muslim against all forms of evil forces. It exposes the deception and its people.

    Nuh Ha Mim Keller compiled subjects in the Reliance of the Traveler, which are blind imitations of the mystic Sufi path and promotion of deviant distortions of the Islamic creed regarding the Names and Attributes of Allah.

  • @mhamadac The book could be very deceptive for those who are not aware of the true nature of mysticism and of the various deviant sects whose thoughts continue to exist [and are also taught] in many parts of the Muslim world.

    The original text of The Reliance of the Traveler by the Shaafi'ee faqeeh Ibn Naqeeb Al-Misri (in Arabic) is supported with authentic evidence, overall sound judgments, and provides a great deal of benefit.

  • @mhamadac However, Nuh Ha Mim Keller plays with the translation using weapons of deception to distort the sound parts of the fiqh matters and mixes them with the poison of corrupt concepts of belief and mysticism in order to propagate his own deviant agenda. This is the biggest danger that the Muslims face, they start off with good intentions seeking to acquire Islamic knowledge,

  • @mhamadac and are then deceived with the words of the innovators who falsely claim that "Our way is based on the Qur'aan and Sunnah," not knowing that they are actually being misled from the straight path. May Allah guide us all to the straight path and bless us with Paradise, Ameen.

    One method that Nuh Ha Mim Keller uses to propagate his corrupt philosophy is through lies and fabrications.

  • @mhamadac He falsely claims that Imams Maalik and Abu Haneefah (May Allah's Mercy be upon them) "had the higher education of Sufism" (See Keller's Classical Manual or Reliance, sec. w9.3, p.863).

    Keller quotes a Sufi scholar who fabricated the following and claimed that it was said by Imam Maalik, "He who practices Sufism without learning Sacred Law corrupts his faith, while he who learns Sacred Law without practicing Sufism corrupts himself. Only he

  • @mhamadac who combines the two proves true" (Reliance w9.3, p.862). Keller tries to falsely attribute this corruption to the scholars of the Sunnah so that the people without knowledge would be misled into believing that Sufism is part of Islam or that it was supported by the great scholars of the Sunnah.

    However, the truth is revealed about the attitude of the early scholars of the Sunnah in this authentic narration by 'Abdullah Bin Yoosuf
