    this talk is good and rightly guided, however i have to remind women: if i tried to do what another person wants, to conquer my selfish desires, and in service to another, and i become miserable in that situation because i gave up what makes me happy (having my own job and living in a region/climate i like (say for example from a forest in northern california to the city center of houston (materialistic, selfish and worldly desires of mine), and he becomes violent to everyone, it is not noble for me to stay there. it is ok to do what i need for myself to survive and for my chldren and mother not to be traumatized.

      O you who have believed, if there comes to you a disobedient one with information, investigate, lest you harm a people out of ignorance and become, over what you have done, regretful. - Surah al-Hujurat, 49/6
      O you who have believed, avoid assumption and suspicion. Indeed, some assumption is sin. And do not spy or backbite each other. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead? You would detest it. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is Accepting of repentance and Merciful. - Surah al-Hujurat, 49/12

    Very wise words but you somewhat undermined what you said at @22:59. How so? Well, you pleaded to a human with his own foibles of various descriptions. Having established the key strengths of Allah (swt), you referred to a human messenger. 3:144 and other verses show he is only a conduit. Sure, his hadith are of great merit but they are not the words of Allah (swt) within an Islamic framing. My heart and its connection to Allah (swt) have very little to do with Muhammad (pbuh) .. Think about it.

      Why did Allah create? What was the first creation- not the Ruh of The Prophet SAW? and before the beloved SAW creation His SAW name was already inscribed on the Arsh next to Allah SWT in the shahada… Nabi Muhammed SAW is the walking Quraan as said by Lady Aisha RA… and I could go on and on. Rahmatul lil Aalameen
      Habeeb ul Allah
      … that is why we read the Shama’il so we may be blessed to recognise Him SAW on that day when nobody else will intercede for you…. He SAW is everything, not a postman bringing a message but the living embodiment of the message.

    Sufisim has nothing to do with Islam. You are doing a huge mistake by interpreting the Quran the way you want, we must interpret it the way Allah reveled in to Prophet Muhammad. أنا فتحنا لك فتحاً مبيناً Alfat’h refers to Allah telling the prophet about the triumph of the treaty of al-hudaybiya. This has nothing to do with opening the heart! Ibn Arabi just interpreted Quran esoterically

    • @noosy530
      @noosy530 2 місяці тому +1

      Al fatah is a name of Allah and surah al fatiha is the opener. The root word f-t-h refers to both triumph and opening. He is studying the linguistic meanings of the root word, not solely surah fatah. I hope this clarifies for you that your correction is based on a misunderstanding :) peace be upon you ya Hamad

      @@hamad4142 Hamad, the claim you are making was not mentioned in this video at all. Please reference the published work by Ibn Arabi that makes this claim if you are truthful. It is also important to remember that one false belief does not negate all other beliefs or wisdoms of a human being. There is not a single person on the planet who you agree with one hundred percent of the time. This does not mean we cannot learn from others pertaining to wisdom. It is true, the root word f-t-h refers to both opening and triumph, so your original comment is not a valid correction, because you misunderstood the original topic being discussed. Take care, and may you be blessed with the kind of mercy and gentleness we all hope for from Allah as we journey through our lifetimes.
