@@bamhurgers yes as long as you don't hurt other's intentionally.

The ONLY reason why the CROSS works for the Christians is because the jinn without feeling any pain leaves the body of the possessed person to cause misguidance Many muslims claim it is permissible to wear a taweez because Allah says the Quran is a healing for the believers 🤔 As we know Ayatul kursi is recited for protection from the Jinn ( THIS I$ WHAT ALLAH MEANT BY THE QURAN IS A HEALING ) The same Quran also states honey is a healing ( AS EXPECTED WE D0 N0T SEE PEOPLE WITH A H0NEY JAR HANGING FR0M THEIR NECKS ) We all agree It is SHIRK to ask a idol for help even if the idol has Quran verses on it ( Because the point is asking an idol for help is shirk ) We all agree reading Quran verses before eating PORK will not make it halal ( Because the point is pork is forbidden ) We all MUST agree wearing a Quranic Taweez is shirk ( Because the point is wearing a Taweez is shirk ) WHY D0 PEOPLE HAVE A DIFFERENT RULE F0R THE TAWEEZ ❓ The Quran makes it clear pork is forbidden ( Quran 5 : 3 ) ( We do not hear anyone claiming this is talking about pork that has not had Quran recited on it ) The Quran makes it clear idol worship is forbidden ( Quran 14 : 35 ) ( We do not hear anyone claiming this is talking about those idols without Quran verses on them ) The Prophet PBUH said Whoever wears an amulet has committed shirk ( Masnud Ahmed 16969 ) ( Yet we have people claiming this is talking about Taweez without Quran verses in them )
By thy way, this applies to animals, too, in Islam. A Muslim is forbidden to hit an animal in the face. Of course, self-defense is a serious matter that accommodates a lot of exceptions and makes forbidden things permissible; for example, a Muslim can hit the face if it's for self-defense, just as he can eat pork if it's the only food available in a survival scenario and he could die or incur grave physical harm if he doesn't eat something during extreme hunger or famine.
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 747 Abu Hurairah narrated that: the Messenger of Allah said: "Deeds are presented on Monday and Thursday, and I love that my deeds be presented while I am fasting."
I train Muay Thai as a Muslim, only for the sake of Allah, in cases where I will need to defend Islam. It is the duty of a Muslim man to seek physical strength like the Prophet SW did. But hitting the head in competitions, I can see why this is prohibited.
Yeah we definitely shouldn´t give up on martial arts and masculine sports and turn into feminine soy boys and weaklings. I have trained taekwondo for years and we kick and hit in the face and body, but with protective gear and helmet.

Shukran... but why do i feel more clarity is needed. How do we engage when in battle? Or are we referring to civil issues like two people that land up in a brawl? I am not understanding this clearly.
No, they say it is a sin to strike the face during real combat too. The effeminate scholars wouldn't be doing that though, they prefer to say what's wrong and right from the comfort of their arm chair.
I think there's decapitation stuff going on during first 3 Islamic war, compared to head punching, as long as it's not a form of torture it should be alright.
Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: The Prophet said, "Every Prophet used to be sent to his nation only but I have been sent to all mankind." (Sahih al-Bukhari 335)
I also practice martial arts to be fit and loose weight and to protect myself if someone tries to attack or hurt me and protecting my family or friends against someone who causes problems and troubles by being violent Martial arts should be practiced for self-defense only not for money not for amusement not for entertainment and not for any other bad way or things i am a Muslim Alhamdulillah it's a very bad thing and indeed haram to practice martial arts and deliberately deliver punches to your opponent inflicting pain to him or her and causing permanent brain damage to your opponent or maybe receiving punches from your opponent and end up on a wheelchair or being paralyzed yourself. The three sports that are better for us all is jogging, swimming, and even wrestle because it gives you a lot of stamina and is much better for your health and breath fresh and clean air when you run outside when I was 14 years younger i used to swim a lot i was very tired when I was back home but I was tired in a good way it made me healthier and fit and even less sick because when you 🏊 you also use your whole body in water plus our Prophet did all three of them and we should follow our beloved Prophet Muhammad S.A.W advice.
WHen zakir naik says training for self defence does that mean only only punching bags or hitting head while sparring. And if the answer was the first( punching bag), is body sparring OK as noone ever get hurt just winded in most cases
Is this exempt in situations of self defense, where say, someone who is bigger is trying to harm a woman, and the best defense to get away is to harm his face, I would presume there would be exceptions for such cases…?
That's why I don't get why people participate in sports where they hurt each other by hitting their faces/heads knowing that it would cause permanent damage, disability, and even death...what is the purpose of that? Trying to be "tough" or "show off" that they're the best in sport? It's unnecessary and a waste of time/investment, not worth it. Shame on people who loves to watch and pay for it it's like the history where gladiators fight. Alhamdulillah for Islam.
A sport like boxing has a beauty to it and requires alot of skill and tenacity and I love seeing the amazing reflexes and head movement and technique of boxers, even though I know it's Haram.
Thats what im saying for 15 years. Thats why Muhammad Ali had to suffer parkinson, because Allah wanted to purify him for a high rank in Jannah. Inshallah.
I was learning how to box. I had stopped for a reason and this reason is have the point that people bring when saying boxing/mma is haram are: Muslims is to do no harm to their own body and Hitting the face.
All desi parents need to watch this before having kids and all parents need to watch this when trying to justify and defend themself for hitting their kids in the head and face.
I'll tell you this if someone means harm to you. They will be hitting you in the face. Or at least trying too. And if you've never felt that before there is no way you would be prepared for that encounter.
@Rob-Otter depends. Most scholars have never been in fight gyms. I can agree that becoming a professional and doing it for a living is haram. But doing it as a hobby and self defense should be fine. Modern MMA and boxing gyms are way different than years ago. Head hunting during sparring/going hard etc. Is very frowned upon and gets people kicked out of the gym. You decide how hard you want your opponent to go based on your goals and you let them know
Its very sad. We have alot of brothers now competing in these sports and earning haram income. I was doing MMa at a Muslim club for about two years and I can tell you that I have seen practicing brothers with big beards let there egos get out of control and start punching each other hard on the face. I can understand the training element but punching each other on the face is a massive no and the Quran/Sunnah guidelines must he adhered to. It would be better to stick to wrestling or judo and even BJJ.
As Muslim i like martial arts. I learn 4 martial arts, they are Taekwondo, Muay Thai, Pencak Silat, and Aikido. They're good for self defense and if i want to join for competition, i choose Pencak Silat, why? Because Pencak Silat fight has rules that you can do some grappling and hit like punch or kick only at bodies and for hitting head and lower body it's prohibited during fight competition and sparring. May Allah bless you 🙏
These days western society under men promote this to be a fighter as its cool or gain more status, don't understand dunya anymore its a test know that but its not easy in many ways. Being a muslim community like living in a Islam country my brothers and sister you are blessed
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: *When any one of you fights with his brother, he should not slap at the face.* (Sahih Muslim 2612d)
So hitting the face is not permitted in boxing/martial arts competition, but it is allowed (according to some scholars) in the real world as self defense? I'm confused, did I interpret that correctly?
@jeffbezos61 so it means the competition are haram not the boxing, bcos it's allowed hitting while training for self-defense., The scholars must say competition of any martial art are haram bcos it's like gambling.
@@nowiknow1120That’s not true. Hitting the face is prohibited, even while training/sparring. There are permissible martial arts someone could learn, like Wrestling, etc.
It is also important to learn martial arts and other fighting skills for self protection because you can fall in danger at any moments i mean what if some robbers or bullies or gangster come to harm you. Besides all sahabas were fighters, they used to fight in war and Prophet Muhammad pbuh fought over 500 wars even in his old age. But now a days muslims are too weak in fighting, economics, politics, power etc which is totally dissapointing. Its a shame for us muslims come on wake up we used to rule the world in the past.
So if i box and manage to fight with only light body shots then is it permitted? Like by only stacking up the points and trying my best to not hurt my opponents, it might be difficult but not impossible right ? someone please let me know that
@Rob-Otter I can definitely box as I do believe that I have a natural talent on it but still thanks for the information brother! I will definitely take your advice to heart, and I will try to transition fron boxing to wrestling. Much love brother stay safe and halal may Allah swt bless you and your family
I dont consider it Haram. The Hadith speaking of not hitting doesn't apply to this at all from what I understand. I have a clear and solid explanation for it, but since I'm not a scholar I better keep it to myself. Talking about injuries, just Google it and see which sport has most death and injuries. Boxing will be somewhere in the last of list. While the sports which are actually considered halal are at the top of the list. So, that argument is totally invalid
Learn it for the SELF DEFENSE, BOYS! Go out there and LEARN, you'll find discipline in yourself. May god forbid, if you are caught in a mugging situation, you would know what to do. If you see a GUN, comply with the criminals no matter what BUT, if it is hand on hand, you would be thankful for this.

MMA isn’t war, you are not trying to kill the person. War is about killing people and ending a load of lives so one wins, in MMA it’s a sport which people do for money and fame. If one wants to practice boxing then it’s fine, as long as there’s no sparring at all or any fights. Just using a boxing bag. MMA is haram no matter what people say, try wrestling. Wrestling was done by the best of the ummah, it’s better for you in terms of good deeds and is good in tackling people both defensive and offensive.

Violent sports are haram in Islam as entertainment, as we are the only civilized people on earth. That said, learning how to fight is sunnah, and our prophet used to wrestle with the companies. It is sunbah but I viewed as an imperative part of your aibada. Because of the great rewards gained from fighting in the name of Allah for the umma.

Reality Of Taweez ( Amulet )
Islam is complete & perfect ( Quran 5 : 3 )
The complete & perfected islam instructed us to avoid bid’ah ( newly invented deeds ) ( Sunan An Nasai 1579 )
The complete & perfected islam did not instruct us to wear a Quranic Taweez ( Amulets ) therefore it becomes a bid’ah
The complete & perfected islam taught us ➜ Whoever wears an amulet has committed shirk ( Masnud Ahmed 16969 )
The only reason why the AMULET works is because the JINN without feeling any pain leaves the body of the possessed person to cause misguidance.
The ONLY reason why the CROSS works for the Christians is because the jinn without feeling any pain leaves the body of the possessed person to cause misguidance
Many muslims claim it is permissible to wear a taweez because Allah says the Quran is a healing for the believers 🤔
As we know Ayatul kursi is recited for protection from the Jinn
( THIS I$ WHAT ALLAH MEANT BY THE QURAN IS A HEALING )
The same Quran also states honey is a healing ( AS EXPECTED WE D0 N0T SEE PEOPLE WITH A H0NEY JAR HANGING FR0M THEIR NECKS )
We all agree It is SHIRK to ask a idol for help even if the idol has Quran verses on it
( Because the point is asking an idol for help is shirk )
We all agree reading Quran verses before eating PORK will not make it halal ( Because the point is pork is forbidden )
We all MUST agree wearing a Quranic Taweez is shirk ( Because the point is wearing a Taweez is shirk )
WHY D0 PEOPLE HAVE A DIFFERENT RULE F0R THE TAWEEZ ❓
The Quran makes it clear pork is forbidden ( Quran 5 : 3 ) ( We do not hear anyone claiming this is talking about pork that has not had Quran recited on it )
The Quran makes it clear idol worship is forbidden ( Quran 14 : 35 ) ( We do not hear anyone claiming this is talking about those idols without Quran verses on them )
The Prophet PBUH said Whoever wears an amulet has committed shirk ( Masnud Ahmed 16969 ) ( Yet we have people claiming this is talking about Taweez without Quran verses in them )

No, they say it is a sin to strike the face during real combat too. The effeminate scholars wouldn't be doing that though, they prefer to say what's wrong and right from the comfort of their arm chair.
If self defense or while in war. Is it allowed to punch face? It would end fight faster. Correct me if I am wrong.
I think there's decapitation stuff going on during first 3 Islamic war, compared to head punching, as long as it's not a form of torture it should be alright.
Im training in Muay Thai strictly for self defense reasons. I knew this which is why i have no intention of competing in muay thai
Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: The Prophet said, "Every Prophet used to be sent to his nation only but I have been sent to all mankind." (Sahih al-Bukhari 335)
Its really hard to accept the truth
What if we do for self defence? Is it allowed?
I also practice martial arts to be fit and loose weight and to protect myself if someone tries to attack or hurt me and protecting my family or friends against someone who causes problems and troubles by being violent Martial arts should be practiced for self-defense only not for money not for amusement not for entertainment and not for any other bad way or things i am a Muslim Alhamdulillah it's a very bad thing and indeed haram to practice martial arts and deliberately deliver punches to your opponent inflicting pain to him or her and causing permanent brain damage to your opponent or maybe receiving punches from your opponent and end up on a wheelchair or being paralyzed yourself. The three sports that are better for us all is jogging, swimming, and even wrestle because it gives you a lot of stamina and is much better for your health and breath fresh and clean air when you run outside when I was 14 years younger i used to swim a lot i was very tired when I was back home but I was tired in a good way it made me healthier and fit and even less sick because when you 🏊 you also use your whole body in water plus our Prophet did all three of them and we should follow our beloved Prophet Muhammad S.A.W advice.
Then the money that a person earn from boxing or MMA is also haram isn't it?
Grappling is sunnah
WHen zakir naik says training for self defence does that mean only only punching bags or hitting head while sparring.
And if the answer was the first( punching bag), is body sparring OK as noone ever get hurt just winded in most cases
Ma sha Allah. Alhamdulillah. Allahu akbar.
Is this exempt in situations of self defense, where say, someone who is bigger is trying to harm a woman, and the best defense to get away is to harm his face, I would presume there would be exceptions for such cases…?
Muhammad Ali everyone...?? May Allah grant him jannah.
Perhaps he didn't know.
Ameen!
@@SirChivalRegal
Look what it cost him he died because of it
I don’t like boxing it’s stupid …. True what our brothers are saying ❤
That's why I don't get why people participate in sports where they hurt each other by hitting their faces/heads knowing that it would cause permanent damage, disability, and even death...what is the purpose of that? Trying to be "tough" or "show off" that they're the best in sport? It's unnecessary and a waste of time/investment, not worth it. Shame on people who loves to watch and pay for it it's like the history where gladiators fight.
Alhamdulillah for Islam.
A sport like boxing has a beauty to it and requires alot of skill and tenacity and I love seeing the amazing reflexes and head movement and technique of boxers, even though I know it's Haram.
Thats what im saying for 15 years. Thats why Muhammad Ali had to suffer parkinson, because Allah wanted to purify him for a high rank in Jannah. Inshallah.
I was learning how to box. I had stopped for a reason and this reason is have the point that people bring when saying boxing/mma is haram are: Muslims is to do no harm to their own body and Hitting the face.
My mom hit me right on my nose as I was 3-4 years, then blood flew out my nose.
All desi parents need to watch this before having kids and all parents need to watch this when trying to justify and defend themself for hitting their kids in the head and face.
I'll tell you this if someone means harm to you. They will be hitting you in the face. Or at least trying too. And if you've never felt that before there is no way you would be prepared for that encounter.
@Rob-Otter depends. Most scholars have never been in fight gyms. I can agree that becoming a professional and doing it for a living is haram. But doing it as a hobby and self defense should be fine. Modern MMA and boxing gyms are way different than years ago. Head hunting during sparring/going hard etc. Is very frowned upon and gets people kicked out of the gym. You decide how hard you want your opponent to go based on your goals and you let them know
Is it allowed to hit the face during a war?
How about the solar plexus,the manhood or liver?
Its very sad. We have alot of brothers now competing in these sports and earning haram income. I was doing MMa at a Muslim club for about two years and I can tell you that I have seen practicing brothers with big beards let there egos get out of control and start punching each other hard on the face. I can understand the training element but punching each other on the face is a massive no and the Quran/Sunnah guidelines must he adhered to. It would be better to stick to wrestling or judo and even BJJ.
Im a muslim security guard if i used self defense i would take the person to the ground unless fists are needed
As Muslim i like martial arts. I learn 4 martial arts, they are Taekwondo, Muay Thai, Pencak Silat, and Aikido. They're good for self defense and if i want to join for competition, i choose Pencak Silat, why? Because Pencak Silat fight has rules that you can do some grappling and hit like punch or kick only at bodies and for hitting head and lower body it's prohibited during fight competition and sparring. May Allah bless you 🙏
Do what does Habib have to say about this ?
He takes Islam very seriously 😮
Of course he said that! That's the rule of wrestling!!
If he say don't eat during Ramadan are you going to say eating is haram in any situation?
These days western society under men promote this to be a fighter as its cool or gain more status, don't understand dunya anymore its a test know that but its not easy in many ways. Being a muslim community like living in a Islam country my brothers and sister you are blessed
That why traditional martial art like silat and karate don't hit the face
So who is giving khabib Islam advice ? So he's all of the money he's eating is Haram ? Dayum.
May Allah rabbul izzat give all of us jannat ul firdaus for eternity in the hereafter. Ameen
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
*When any one of you fights with his brother, he should not slap at the face.*
(Sahih Muslim 2612d)
Brother would only imply Muslims
Non-Muslims arent brothers so its permissible 😮
@@hazemaster007
But there should be some reason. It's not like you just go to any non Muslim guy and hit on face.
Something I never knew
So hitting the face is not permitted in boxing/martial arts competition, but it is allowed (according to some scholars) in the real world as self defense? I'm confused, did I interpret that correctly?
Yes in self defense you have to protect yourself. So in that scenario hitting the face is allowed .
@jeffbezos61 so it means the competition are haram not the boxing, bcos it's allowed hitting while training for self-defense., The scholars must say competition of any martial art are haram bcos it's like gambling.
@@Rob-Otteryes for self defense you can even kill the attacker because it was emergency.
@@nowiknow1120That’s not true. Hitting the face is prohibited, even while training/sparring. There are permissible martial arts someone could learn, like Wrestling, etc.
It is also important to learn martial arts and other fighting skills for self protection because you can fall in danger at any moments i mean what if some robbers or bullies or gangster come to harm you. Besides all sahabas were fighters, they used to fight in war and Prophet Muhammad pbuh fought over 500 wars even in his old age. But now a days muslims are too weak in fighting, economics, politics, power etc which is totally dissapointing. Its a shame for us muslims come on wake up we used to rule the world in the past.
Just incase if someone tries to harm you physically
Getting hit on face especially nose is the worst thing every man can get while fighting. You are literally stunned irl like in video games
I’m atheist, my friend is a Muslim. I spare him from time to time. Is just like a light spar with head is allowed?
JAZAKALLAH
I prefer body spar only. That's far better i think
Asslamualaikum
Wa Alaikum Salam
Asian parents left the chat
How we should learn self defence except boxing
So if i box and manage to fight with only light body shots then is it permitted? Like by only stacking up the points and trying my best to not hurt my opponents, it might be difficult but not impossible right ? someone please let me know that
@Rob-Otter I can definitely box as I do believe that I have a natural talent on it but still thanks for the information brother! I will definitely take your advice to heart, and I will try to transition fron boxing to wrestling. Much love brother stay safe and halal may Allah swt bless you and your family
I dont consider it Haram.
The Hadith speaking of not hitting doesn't apply to this at all from what I understand.
I have a clear and solid explanation for it, but since I'm not a scholar I better keep it to myself.
Talking about injuries, just Google it and see which sport has most death and injuries.
Boxing will be somewhere in the last of list.
While the sports which are actually considered halal are at the top of the list.
So, that argument is totally invalid
@turkishGhaz nah dawg, I just realized how stupid that is😅 my bad man, my bad
@Sheriff1418 yes, you are right
@turkishGhaz yep
I’ve always had a feeling it was haram.
Learn it for the SELF DEFENSE, BOYS! Go out there and LEARN, you'll find discipline in yourself. May god forbid, if you are caught in a mugging situation, you would know what to do. If you see a GUN, comply with the criminals no matter what BUT, if it is hand on hand, you would be thankful for this.

If you are from OIC country then raise your voice against the oppressing of muslims in India by Hindutva terrorists.... Tell your government to declare Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang dal as a terrorist organisation......Please help us..... We need your help.....
Thats why khabib uses wrestling, jujutsu and other grapplings arts to finish the opponent
After smesh/ground and pound.
@@matsuda1994 he only used smesh on Connor but mostly he tries not to throw punches instead he tries to use submission but for the sake of winning he use punches
@@AsadKhan-gp9sk barbosa was punished by khabib with multiple punches to the head
@@AsadKhan-gp9skhe literally almost elbowed someone to death in 2012, stop trying to defend the sins khabib was known for heavily aggressive ground and pound
Not true, khabib’s well known to be a dangerous striker, he also bring destroys others peoples faces when he’s wrestling lol, lets not put khabib on a pedestal
What about Wrestling and Grappling?
Dont hit the face
@@Clachgames172 You don't hit the face here but you can choke someone out
Wresting is encouraged in Islam
I thought the hadith only limited to women?
Plz any one accrodingly to islamic law help me plz im still dont know to continue my MMA or not ?
Becoz only one doubt i have when its war everything is allow so same in a MMA match its a war both fighters ready to go whats about this ?????? My mind running out help me any one plz make me or break me
MMA isn’t war, you are not trying to kill the person. War is about killing people and ending a load of lives so one wins, in MMA it’s a sport which people do for money and fame. If one wants to practice boxing then it’s fine, as long as there’s no sparring at all or any fights. Just using a boxing bag. MMA is haram no matter what people say, try wrestling. Wrestling was done by the best of the ummah, it’s better for you in terms of good deeds and is good in tackling people both defensive and offensive.

@@Rob-Otter my bad I read this late brother, you was the one spitting facts. I just added a few so people can see that it’s not only one person saying the truth but many also know it. If we all work as a team then many will listen to what we say. May Allah Swt reward you and the rest of the ummah that speak facts without watering down the deen.
Naos Billah .. that's why Moses hit the face of Malukul Maut..
Right
Violent sports are haram in Islam as entertainment, as we are the only civilized people on earth.
That said, learning how to fight is sunnah, and our prophet used to wrestle with the companies.
It is sunbah but I viewed as an imperative part of your aibada.
Because of the great rewards gained from fighting in the name of Allah for the umma.
My friend please help me im getting lost in darkness, some aspect of my is becoming ex Muslim and im going to convert to Christianity but i dont want to but i dont know what to do im so comfuse my brain is confuse Allah (SWT) or jesus whos the lord,why Allah (SWT) DOESN'T show him, why ALLAH(SWT) HAS BE be so strict why doesn't he talk to us ,nooooo i dont know what's happening to me ,
Thats why khabib dont like to KO his oppenent with punch because he know its prohibited to hit the face and rather drag the fight to submission and make his oppenent tap out, BUT still the sports he doing is haram
He sometimes trying to KO his opponent with face punch though
@@Rob-Otter you seems justify their actions. Me too grew up without mobile phone. Are all dagestani people a fighter? No, right? I'd prefer living in hard conditions (living as a tenacious hard-worker) than become an mma/wrestling fighter.

It seems like the owner of this video doesn't even care what kind of adds are being advertised. Nobody walk the talk.
yes only Ebrahimi is a true Muslim
Muhammad Ali?
So is Khabibs UFC earnings haram money?
Khabib did that
Sometimes you just have to slap the fool
WHAT ABOUT WRESTLING? IS IT HALAL
hmm someone should tell this to my parents..when I was younger they did that alot. but never forgot about the right of the parents in Islam a they abused me physically and mentally and emotionally
See slapping tournament matches usually happens out of self defense because usually the two would have a bone to pick with and the tournament are seen as battles that both know they are in for painful game
Singapore Malaysia Indonesia Thailand
Oh man, I was really training to become an mma fighter. Guess I'm stuck working a 9-5 😔
