What Do Women Want? - Shaykh Abu Usamah At-Thahabi

Smila rahmanir rahim' alhamdulillah wa salatu was-salam ala rasulina or shadow and aya hyena la voix de la sharika lahu y shadow and number Hamadan abduhu wa rasuluhu sallallahu LA he was Saddam who I am about recently I did a program a series with one of the famous Islamic channels it's known globally as well as being in Europe's warm own program or Channel and it was a series dealing with a number of episodes trying to address and tackle many of the contemporary issues and challenges that we have to get a grip upon especially issues that are really important to our youth issues like Islamic entertainment like comedy is there such a thing as a Muslim standing up as a comic and making jokes with the golden objective of making people laugh issues like whether or not the Sharia is compatible with British law issues like sports what does all Islam have to say about sports and is it permissible for our children to aspire to be professional soccer players football players and if one of them becomes a football player how do we deal with the challenges and what does that Islam have to say about those issues I was brought as the expert my job was simply to give my opinion as it relates to what el Islam says about the issues that were brought on the table and they would bring people who are comedians people were footballers people who were in the political arena and sphere I was shocked to be honest with you to see how some of our youngsters think and how many of the Muslims think when formulating opinions like this you love Islamic comedy and entertainment the question is posed to the Muslim comic when it comes to comedy when it comes to comedy who draws the line as to what you can say and what you can't say can you mock people and if you do mock them how far can you go who draws the line who is that up - I think it's basic and fundamental that every Muslim when he hears that question posed to him right away he's going to say eye line is messenger that's how the line is drawn that the prophet sallallaahu was setting them physically drew a long line and he said this is the surat of allah that's must attain and drew subsequent lines to the right in the left of it and said these are all tentative lines and paths and each one of them is a shape and calling to it so when we ask allah to guide us to the sirat al-mustaqim and our prayer we ask him that the sirat al-mustaqim the her dude the lines the demarcations they have been established by law and his messenger but the muslim comic he believes as his answer indicated it's up to the comic to draw the line if i want the curse in my stand-up comedy i can curse and i can swear if i want to lie i can lie i draw the line as for the listening public if you want to come you come and if you don't want to come you don't come but I draw the line but to the credit of the comment to his credit he had humility because when he heard I add to me her a hadith from the Quran and the Sunnah that he had never heard before he seemed to Humble himself and begin to think maybe this is not a good profession maybe this medical profession unlike some of the other people is al Islam compatible the Sharia with is that with the law of the land here the UK the representative comes from Quilliam foundation and we know that these people from Quilliam with their hundreds of pounds of support from the government they don't speak on behalf of lsland there are people who spew kufur Kaufer and hypocrisy and what is clearly against our religion and the man he doesn't fail what we know about them and he says things that will cause you to say wow what are you talking about but from all of those episodes that I want to share with you today is the episode that was called what do Muslim women want your wife and my wife and your sister my sister the Muslim young girls who are growing up in the UK that's what the issue was named what do Muslim women want three Muslim sisters were brought they're highly educated highly articulate progressive in their thinking but again this issue of who draws the line is an issue that is blurred in the mind and in the concepts of many of the Muslims unfortunately one of them was a lady who was of Asian background Allah Island Pakistan I don't know but she was of Asian background well known on the circuit of activists those Muslim women who are trying to be active to get the rights of Muslims the other tool to get the rights of Muslim women the other two were too well-known Reavers white sisters reverse one from this country and one from Germany and both of them are well-known authors both of them was in journalism to the credit of the one who was from the UK she accepted al islam in iran in the masjid of the shiite she saw in a dream a vision and something happened and she became a muslim and it's not fair for people when they hear stories like that to pass judgment on people and say this person is a shiite because they accepted islam in iran you have to meet the person you have to listen to what they're saying before you pass judgments on people this individual became a muslim as a result of the Nation of Islam Louis Farrakhan Elijah Muhammad and that Kaufer he became a Muslim because he went to listen to them he thought that was Islam he met real Muslims in embrace his land don't say that he's from the Nation of Islam and that went over there he accepted Islam after having a serious awful trip on drugs something was open in his mind and he was connected to some spirituality after that experience he became a Muslim a lot guys people the way he wants to guide people the issue is after embracing Islam how is the person to this lady's credit she sat on a number of the panel discussions I was impressed because again she respected the Quran she respected the Sunnah and when the ayahs of the Quran and the Sunnah came to her she said minute and she praised them and she supported them and she was against everybody who went against that as for the other sisters Allah work but the first question that was put forth by the moderator to the sister was a new revert well-known in Germany well-known author so sister you we want to know what do Muslim women want what do you want and you can speak on behalf of the Muslim community the women she said we Muslim women want to be empowered we don't want anyone to tell us what to do we don't want our husbands our fathers brothers Society we don't want anybody to tell us what to do we have been oppressed and we know what's best for us in light of history and she gave a lot of verbage and a lot of philosophy when you listen to that if you don't know your religion you listen to those $64.00 words those big words and those synthesis that are stream strung along and you say oh it was intelligent although I was in the moderator and it was my job just to answer allow Haram this ayah that hadith i interjected in a nice way i'm deject excuse me sister they brought me here as the expert I'm the expert and I know I'm at the moderator but I know from the Quran and the Sunnah that no human being should say he doesn't want to be told anything because Allah described the nature of Benny Adam in the Quran throughout the Quran Muhammad ahah insan' a new kind of alumina hoola the mankind they carry the amana of giving dower and establishing the Hakka the earth mankind took that where the sky and the mountains and the earth refused Allah samberly mankind he is oppressive and he is ignorant he is oppressive and he is ignorant unless and another Iowa hoodie Callen Sam of IIFA mankind has been created week so listen sister as the expert on this program the Islamic expert if I were to say something and I'm older than you if I were to say something that was wrong do something that was wrong you and those who are younger than you other women men children they have the right to stop me and to advise me and to tell me so no Muslim exist saying I don't want to be told what to do normos the woman can say that no Muslim man can say that I don't want to be told what to do so maybe you would like to rectify that language and change it up explain what do you mean she said I'm adamant we Muslim women we don't want to be told what to do by our husbands and so forth and so on it's not for me to fight her after let that go or I'm going to fit into that narrative of the stereotypical a man who isn't tolerant he's rough he's tough and so forth this one it went to the second sister from this country the river and to her credit you know what that lady said she said I'm going to tell you what I want and what systems like me want is we want to practice our religion we want to be honored we want to be respected we want to be held in high esteem we want to be protected we want to be loved want to take care of our families she said I'll even go a step further I'll say this I'm sorry and apologetic to my ex-husband who before Islam I didn't know the importance of being a wife before Islam I didn't know the importance of the rights of the husband so I didn't treat him well but now that Allah guided me to this religion I see my honor my respect is with how I am with my wife with my husband and my children and then it came to me well share abou sama what do you think that's how Islam empower the woman I said Elohim and Nam al-islam empowers the woman in a way that is pleasing to Allah and way that the Prophet brought some love water you settle them and there are many ways and I'll take up the whole program telling you if you want okay we'll just name a few well at the top of the list and there's no empowerment greater than this for the Muslim woman and that is the empowerment that Allah gave her to worship Him and him alone because when the slave worships Allah he's not a slave to anyone else he's not a slave to a system he's not a slave to his desires he's not a slave to anyone he's not a slave to the media the woman today in American Europe she is a slave she's not happy with herself she feels she's too fat she thinks she's too black she thinks she's too white too skinny too tall too short she thinks this distance her face is not OK unless she packs on her face a lot of makeup and so forth and so on she's a slave to mass media but if she knew her religion and she realized that she was a Mottola first and foremost shoot she's free she's a free thinker thinks for herself beauty is defined by what Allah drew by the line that's been established in lsland not by what men are saying and so forth this one whether they are Muslims or not whether it's from her culture outside of her culture and this is something that funny we never ever ever hear the Muslim women feminists ever mentioned when it is doing when we talk about empowering women they never talk about empowering them spiritually never it's always about money is always about status it's always about some position I went on I said and it helps them a lot this religion empower them and the fact that the lady was she gets married she doesn't have to take her husband's name it's not permissible for her to take her husband's name in lsland that is a sign of enslavement to her husband it is a sign in the West in America when the man married the woman the woman became his property so she took on his name my last name before al Islam is the name of my forefathers master and that's why we slay that name and we buried that name to get rid of it to get rid of that server tool that our forefathers had so when the woman comes into a slam she doesn't call herself fought the mother daughter of Muhammad and then takes the last name of a husband that's what they do in Europe that's enslavement so it's not gave of that freedom and then I told them and here's where the bomb blew up and when I say bomb I'm talking figuratively so that nobody gets upset no one gets nervous here's where the bomb went off al Aslam has empowered the Muslim lady woman the woman in that she's allowed to get married whoever she wants to get married to I know I know speaking on behalf of our sisters that we have ignorant fathers we have different husbands we have ignorant oppressive cultures that were misogynistic we are male chauvinist we are people don't want to hear what the woman has to say we have enslaved them the way H did by burying their daughters socially socially we bury our daughters we don't want to hear what they have to say we have double standards I'm the first one to say we have to kill that nonsense forcing her to get married Islam empower - you could get married and then I gave them the Haditha banana be subtle of why he was seldom that man told his daughter marry your cousin she said no y'all a soul Allah told my daughter to marry her cousin she disobeys me says no the Prophet said to the girl saw the light he was telling them obey your father she said now Allah he got our soul Allah until you tell me what is the right of the husband over the wife I'm not getting married he said the right of the husband over the wife is if he developed a sore and abscess in his nose and it was oozing blood and pus if she were to liquid and swallow that he/she wouldn't have given him his rice she said well Lori I'm never gonna get married the Prophet said don't force them to get married when I said that hadith right there in the studio those women jumped up oh just like that and I don't exaggerate they jumped up right there filming that Hadees this week that's enslavement what is that I was shocked I was shocked the questionnaire sister there are five conditions that make a hadith authentic do you know one of them know you what makes the hadith weak my chef told me that any time you hear a hadith claiming that the Prophet said this or the Prophet said that's of Allah water you will sell them and it causes the hair on your head and the hair on your skin to rise up then the Prophet didn't say you have to reject it have you ever heard of such a principle have you ever heard of such a principle you read an ayah you hear a hadith and it affects you in that type of way that's the sign that the hadith is weak look at the confusion that's understanding of the Muslim girl that's understanding of Adam's child but look what Allah who Tyler said in the Quran look what Allah said how the line is drawn he said in the Quran Allahu nazara accented hadith Katahdin mutashabiha Metheny touch every woman who Jordan lavinia schöner aboe Allah is the one who sent down the best speech ahsanul Hadees it is a book that confirms itself and it repeats itself when those who fear their Lord hear it and we did their hair stands up their skin stands up out of fear when they read about yomo qiyamah when they read about the NADA that you hand them that I thought what a lot prepared in the paradise when they read about how a lot can do this and will do this and do that they become afraid and they get as the other email but on this person's mind if that happens to me that's the sign that I reject it so I wanted to share with this community especially our children who are here today but this is not just for our women this is for every for Muslim every single Muslim was out there who thinks and he believes and he's been duped and tricked bamboozled into thinkin that empowerment comes to us from outside of Islam you are sorely mistaken empowerment doesn't come outside of what Allah has legislated and as a Muslim this is basic and fundamental if you don't buy into it if you don't believe it then there's something suspect about your Eman maybe you're excused because you're brand spanking new Muslim or you live in the desert some wing you can't read and write so you don't know very much maybe you're excused but for the vast majority of us who can read and write come template consider we we know what's going on what's the excuse for a person to be in doubt thinking that you can get empowered from outside of Islam Muslim women feminists what is that Muslim women feminists I even heard on that program or at the studio the Muslim atheists are the Muslim feminists the Muslim modernists and the Muslim atheist is an oxymoron how can a person be Muslim atheist at the same time where does it stop as it relates to what I'm telling you a person wants to bring empowerment to our community by killing innocent people in Belgium or other than that Isis anyone who wants to empower this woman and bring back the midst of al Islam there is a very slam if you try to do it politically anyway and you go outside of the realms of this religion you won't be successful look what the Prophet said so I love white even sediment would happen a companion Imran even Hussein roblem Allah he alayhi he said that the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa seldom saw a man who came in and a man had a copper ring on his hand rasool allah not knowing the end malade but he said to the man what is that the man said and why he Nayyara sous la la it protects me from rheumatism by wearing this I'll be protective rheumatism the Prophet older man Sal Allahu alayhi wa ala re wa salem Inza ha for in the haladki seed oka in the woman when low mid tower here I like my flag that a bird up hey take that tie wheeze off take that Tamina off take that necklace off take that hocus-pocus stuff off for verily it won't do anything but increase you in weakness and if you were to die and that fingers on you you would never be successful you will never be powerful you will never be saved strong protected never le mom at man he brought this hadith shaken Islam check out his lab Muhammad Abdul wahap in Cataumet oh he he brought that hadith to show them permissibility of wearing the tie weaves and so forth and so on he said this hadith is Schneider una betsa de it's acceptable hadith so the point here in the shack adhere the Muslim the human being he wants to take something to get strength he wants to be empowered he wants to be helped by something that is diametrically opposed to the religion did me tell us some love why he was telling them anyone who invent something introduces something in this religion that's not from it it will be rejected it's not going to help you you think it's going to help you and empower you but in fact you're on a slippery slope that thing will destroy you one narration of this how do you Fed if you die and this thing is on you you'll die on other than the middle of Muhammad I don't want nobody to tell my want anyone to tell me what to do look at what happened with the nippy's hadith of Allah quite himself that proves the point what's the issue what's the point if we look for is the power on a respect from outside of his land with the government with the media with this with that you look for outside of the boundaries of Allah has prescribed you won't find it he mention sallallahu alayhi wa seven an authentic hadith I'm the authority about delighting your mind and citing Bukhari another black Abu Huraira narrated the hadith as well may Allah be pleased with all of those companions what julilah a Lulu was sir our Adam in sharra for a married woman to shut by becoming for who a men who Russell I said anyone who goes against my way who goes against my command anyone who goes against my way then what's going to happen is he's going to be subjected to servitude he's going to be subjected to being low and being down trotting and whoever resembles a people he's from those people so that hadith clearly indicates and clearly shows what has happened to the Muslims we're subservient we leave our countries and we abandon the resources in our country that we don't even have control over and we come to other countries to help enhance their way of life we are subservience to the West's slaves to the west why because we did everything in opposition to what Allah Azza WA JAL has decreed in his religion not everything obviously but the umma for the most part we've left what we've been given the other hadith of blood her mother even al-kitab and what I was collected by imam ahmed similar to that first hurry he says sallallahu alayhi wa sallam eva Tobiah to Marina what I have to be a deniable Bakr what I did to Mazzara water optimal jihad sunlit Allahu Allah convey la la Anzio ha ha tighter G with a Dina comb a few people this Ummah if this Ummah becomes preoccupied with the dunya commerce money agriculture the main thing for you is what kind of car I'm gonna be a slave to a car where I'm going to live these issues become the dominant things that occupy our minds the doing it becomes the main thing in your existence if you do this and you abandon of jihad in the course of Allah Allah is going to make you serve other people he's going to make you on you put you down put your next under the feet of people who don't care about you and won't have any right my pipe and allow and leave it that way until when until you come back to your Dean when you come back to your Dean then I'll ever get to help now raha let me hakuna later and maybe a co Manhattan you how you do MIDI enthusiam Allah won't change the condition of this community - they can change their own condition what's changing the condition changing it from bad to worse we're in a tough situation we're going to go from bad to worse by trying to become empowered by something that's not legislated now we're going to go from bad to what is better coming back to the religion practicing the religion get in what we need from inside of the religion Jabril Jabril came to our nibby saw a loved one even said him giving him advice giving him instruction he told him a number of things this is what Jabril told the Prophet for the person who wants to know the Muslim sister who is looking for empowerment anyone who's looking for empowerment is a Anna shut off Gabriel told him a number of things and then he told him why l'm and sheriff and muslim qiyamah who believe where is zu is sick matter when Anais he said Muhammad you have to know that the nobility you want to be Nabil you want to be a noble person you know like the people the king the queen their court the Dukes and these they have nobility the tribe you come from you want that ok the muddle in the way he gets nobility is the way he's like that in the last site is by praying qiyamah Leila and if he wants essa if he wants essa then the way he gets essa is being free from the people not be an individual who has to rely on people helping him his situation is if he wants to build a rocket he has to get people to help him outside of him if he wants to establish his government he has to get people his enemies outside of him to help him he's free from the people he doesn't need them he relies on a lot and he relies on those who with him who have the same idea the same girls the same objectives so the point here on mental Islam brothers and sisters if this ummah wants to be people who go back to that original state of is an earner that those campaigns that there's only one way of getting it there's only one way of getting there's not a second way and that one way of giving it is by doing what the Prophet legislated somebody was selling them by a lost permission come on Evan Elka thought may Allah be pleased with him when he went to receive the keys uh baked amuck this and he was at that time walking with his shoes off barefooted and his condom was taken his turn on the right and beasts as he came all the way from Medina all the way to bake them up this on one animal the amendment meaning Allah decreed that when he came into the eyesight of the people it was his turn to walk and it was the turn of the HUD them to ride I mother smart how come I said ahead get down let me get up there and I'm going to ride this animal in here to show these people don't mess with me the Prophet did that you know that I will do Jenna was that the jihad and the Muslims were rested after fighting they took arrest and they were wounded and they had low below I will dijanna got on his horse and started making his horse walking away like that show horse does to say to the people let's go we're going to get busy out here and when the Companions saw that they got excited the Prophet says sallallahu seldom Hadi misha lied to jews ooh unless he hasn't become this type of walking is not permissible because it's arrogance is only allowed right here in this constricted circumstance get people fired up I'm not gonna said get off get off let me get up there and I'm gonna walk I'm gonna go in here like her like a soldier he didn't do that he kept walking so the leader of the Muslims they're one of the ten people promised Jenna abu ubaydah abu ubaydah obey w Jorah he said yeah I mean I mean yeah minimal meaning put your shoes on put your shoes on get on top of the thing you gotta go in and ease people gotta see you and I said I wish someone ever and you said that yeah about Ruby de you're one of the ten people promised Jenna one of the original Sabatino alene you said he said let me remind you we were people the Arabs the low Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula we were a group of people who alone down trodden under foot Persian room used to spit at us laugh at us we were low and downtrodden and then Allah sent the prophets Allah Solomon le slab and Allah gave us is ax and here I am going to get the king we got is ax you said anytime anytime we start to look for our Cyrus and Islam Allah is going to bring us down Allah is going to bring us down so if you're going to be in politics Abdullah let the lines the demarcation but her dude the boundaries they be determined by the Quran and the Sunna if you want to be a student if you want to be a teacher if you want to be a businessman then let the lines of the religion determine what you're going to do which not going to do and don't be apologetic but the person who has wisdom because wisdom is from our religion Apollo kolyada was stuck for Allah he welcoming us Allah Ta'ala toph it was said that Alijah gel mentioned in the Quran alhamdulillah wa salatu was-salam ala rasoolillah lincoln a uri dallisa for the laser to jamia anyone who wants Issa then Issa belongs to allah if that's what you want then seek for it and look for it with your Lord don't be one of those miscreants one of those weak minuscule human beings that doesn't know his Worth and don't know the ability of his Lord where he's trying to get honor from any and everything by any means necessary even if even if it means to sell is religion to sell himself out sellers the sellers self-respect and so forth and so on and how are we going to seek Alisa from allah azzawajal if we're people who don't know the religion and concluding you young people members of our community you don't have to and it is not expected of you to come here in a week two weeks one month three months insha'Allah to deliver the hood / to Juma you do not have to memorize all of the Quran or sizeable haughty or even memorize the 40 hadith of an imam a knowing but learn enough of your religion learn enough of your religion so that you can understand things when they come at you because we're living in a time your p.m. is closed things at topsy turvy and this is no joke we're living in a time right now people hate the wrong people and love the wrong people we're living in a time right now where everything is upside-down the way we think is crazy we are slaves to things and all we need is the opportunity slow down and just think smell the coffee and just think you don't need that in your life and you don't need that you don't have to live like that letting these people decide for us and determine for us how we think politicians and other than that the median other than that the young child the young child as I told you before on a daily basis honey Ami's go these non-muslims there's some of them who have some principles and they have some morals they stand up for a slant lady in America african-american University professor she had tenure at the University she went to the University wearing hijab to stand in solidarity with the Muslim women to tell the University your policies are not fair and if this was something that we had that was done against Christians and some aspect they were religion we would have seen everyone standing against that particular thing she lost her job burst her job what's the point yet what's the point Eric ballast of what's her ethnic background was her sex she's a non Muslim who stood up for a principle but for the one who's always scared he dares to speak the truth he's afraid to be against the tidal wave of the opposition what people think my family there are going to be against me don't be like that be of the people who learn how to think for yourselves and if we are people who are given to watching movies listening to music and that's what we give ourselves these people are going to control you the people powers to be are going to control your mind and that's not to say we don't have any recreation but what's the reactor recreation the recreation is where the line has been drawn the Islamic recreation the recreation that the Prophet used to do some Allahu alayhi wa ala ali wa cellular so we asked a lot roboticle dollar to make things easy for us to protect all of us as individuals and families to raise up off of us this loneliness and servitude that we have and to make us of those people that he is pleased with and that he connects us in shall lives which other to those people who our righteous predecessors from those companions Redwan allahi I mean as main and honey we have a gang load of people here today because this is Good Friday meaning every Friday is good to us so we
