Ibn Taymiyya: A Summary of Dr. Yasir Qadhi's dissertation at Yale University
Вставка

- In the latter part of the sixth century of Islam, an Iranian Scholar by the name of Fakhr ad-Dīn ar-Rāzī (rahimahullah) produced a hundred page treatise on the theological discourse of the Names of Attributes of Allāh (subḥānahu wa ta'āla). His treatise was presented to a Sultan who was related to Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn al-Ayyūbi (rahimahullah). In it, he propounded something he called 'The Universal Rule', which stated that if reason conflicted with revelation, precedence must be given to reason over revelation.
Some two centuries later, one of the greatest thinkers of Islamic history, hailing from the city of Damascus, produced a ten-volume magnum opus refuting this alleged 'Universal Rule'. The name of this man was Shaykh al-Islām Taqī'l-Dīn Ahmad b. Abd al-Haleem Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullah), a genius whose intellectual brilliance is hardly seen during or after his era.
Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi, who regards Shaykh'l-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullah) as an intellectual mentor, spent eight years examining the above-mentioned work, and presented it as his PhD dissertation at Yale University. In his work, Ibn Taymiyya argues that there can never be an actual conflict between true reason and explicit revelation.
Join Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi in this very interesting and academic talk on a summary of his dissertation at Yale University.
Recorded on 22nd March 2013
Thank you for this fine presentation.
I studied Islam and ME history for quite a few decades when I was still Christian. Even then, I could see the power of ibn Tayymiyyah's mind. He clearly had a first rate mind--I believed that even though I wasn't Muslim and disagreed with Islam. As a recent revert to Islam, I'm even more impressed with Tayymiyyah's insight and realize even more how important he is. If we don't study this man's work, we are missing one of the powerful figures in Islamic intellectual history.
Spot on brother
Whether you hate ibn Taymiah or like him, one has to admit that he truly was a genius.
How can someone hate shaykh al Islam rahimahu Allah
@F Haque abdul wahab who created his own ideology afyer reading ibn taymiyyahs works, also worked with the zionist British in taking down the ottomon empire
@F Haque since then, theres always been the najdi movement. Wahabism and salafism who are double standard people.
@@firqahnajiyah1 says the person that’s acting like a 12 year old.
@@firqahnajiyah1 yeh thats why I said double standard, cuz some claim to be from hanbali where as some are against the 4 imams. Man saying im the 12 year old when your acting like one. If you have nothing good to say then keep quiet.
Alhumdulilah such a beautiful talk. May Allah raise the ranks of Imam Ahmed and Imam Ibn Taymiyyah who dedicated their lives and faced persecutions for the preservation of Aqeedah of the Salafs.
I love u brother for that comment
This has absolutely nothing to do with the Aqeedah of Salaf us Salih and Khalaf may Allah be pleased with them all, and then you wonder why he was persecuted and put in jail multiple times by prominent Sunni scholars.

Ibn Taimiyah cited this text from Sheikh al-Daremi and he wrote that he believed in it.
Interestingly, there is a similar belief in Judaism, because they believe God rides on an angel. We read in the The Old Testament,
Book of Samuel, 22:11 (King James
version):
"And he rode upon acherub, and did fly.: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind."
Enough about your gods attributes, let's see what ways of transportation he uses to get to his intended destination:
"Allah is able to relocate from here to there through rope"

Aameen
@Ahmad when ashari means intellectual, wahhabi. 🤣
some of these comments are truly saddening. if any of you feel like ibn taymiaah (r) is wrong about something, it is okay. however, it is not okay to insult him ( dead man ) or his many followers. after all we can differ in opinions, and opinions can change with experiences. to comment " ibn taymiyyah is a kafir " or " stupid " without reading any of his work, is merely ignorance. love each other for gods sakes, we are limited beings.
Anyome who hates ISIS must hate the Shias. Shias pioneered suicide bombing in 1983, more than two decades before ISIS took up the baton from them
Mustafaplays I agree, brother. Ibn Taymiyya (ra.), is dead. Regardless of his controversies, we must pay respect
Nature Lover shut up Wahhabism is bigger enemy then even shia, atleast shia don't pretend to be sunnis. u are kufar Wahhabi who wants to divert the issue to shia, nice try. I don't hate isis for suicide bombings, I hate them because they follow an infidel named ibn taymiyyah
Mustafaplays but most salafis haven't read his work either and still hold him to such a high status.. no one had heard of ibn taymiyyah for hundreds of years he was a average mind it was only 2 hundreds years ago his teachings came out again.. you are the product of suadi Arabia pumping billions into the movement
Have you read all his works brother?
Super like.
Rasulullah (SA) said in one hadith narrated by Ibn ‘Abbaas:
“Reflect on the creation of God but do not reflect on God.”
When I first read the name of these book in a biography of Ibn Taymiyyah rahimahullah, I wished to read it. Jazakallahu Khair Mr. Yasir Qadhi for giving us the essence of the book and wallahi, my respect to Shaykh ul Islam increased manifolds after hearing the elegance of his arguments. May Allah have mercy on him.
Mashallah, much love and respect to Shaikh Yasir Qadhi.
Its humbling to learn the immense knowledge of the scholars of the past.
Thank you for your explanation. May Allah bless you
I keep revisiting to your topics to refresh and re-orient myself everytime when I feel I have lost the plot and refresh myself of the subject matters. May Allah keep you healthy and safe from getting dragged into any political leanings. May Allah continue to bless you with akal and eeman.
Jazak Allah Khairun.
Beutiful explaination Sheik Yasir Qadi,May Allah give us more intellectual like of Yasir Qadi
Sounds like a pure masterpiece! Can't wait till your dissertation is published Shaykna, so that we all can benefit from your research & thesis, insha Allah! :D
Fascinating! Allahumma barik. JazakAllahu khayr.
very thought provoking lecture, jazakullah!
I appreciate your intellectual explanations. Alhamdulillah ! Allahuakbar !
Subhan Allah, Shaykh ul Islam ibn Taymiyya (r) was truly the epitome of what a Scholar should be ...and a mind like his is really what is needed in our times!
The greatest battles are the battles of the intellect, only the feeble mind resort to derogatory and vulgar language or worse, physical harm when critiquing their opponent who belongs to a different group or sect.
Shaykh ul Islam ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullah) is the perfect example of an intellectual brilliance and personality that was way ahead of his time and his works are just mind blowing, only if people understood the genius of his writings - may Allah have Mercy on him and bless us to walk his footsteps for the betterment of the Ummah, Allahumma ameen.
Sorry to say that this guy is a Dhajjal not just misleading the Muslims but also the entire Americans and others.
The time of general public is precious and there are plenty of things they have to know. This kind of philosophical matters should be limited to be discussed among scholars or specialized study purpose the way he did for his Doctorate.
The mere fact that this guy is discussing all these difficult matters with general public is the proof the this guy does not have proper idea of Quran eventually Islam.
Ibn Thaymiah and F Razi discussed issues related to their time which should be analized in their context but not in the modern time. What we need is to analyze the scriptures (Quran and Hadeeth) according to the modern time and its challenges; and find out practical mechanisms which suite the modern time.
Please convey this message to this guy and let him stop spreading falsehood otherwise they won’t be no option than targeting further.
sunnis called ibn taymiyyah an apostate only Wahhabi imposters like yourself love him
Systems Academy Your explanation was so good. Too bad you had to resort to Dhajjal calling... that was poor.
Ibn Taymiyya = Saudi Arabia.
No they are not based on him but someone after that called Muhammad ibn Abd-al Wahhab
[35:12] Amazing point. Great lecture in general. Jazakallahu khair.
Thanks, really appreciate your thoughts. I just wanted to know about Ibne Tammya, in Urdu , unfortunately couldn’t find any book in Urdu , but this lecture did help.
So, once we have Iman that’s all matters, we don’t have to go in ever ayat and looking for a philosophy behind it.
Thanks To Allah, Quran is for everyone, Allah knows his creation , only 4 or 5 % of people who reached to the top of Maslow’s hierarchy.
What Rasool peace be upon him gives us we need to follow.
Jazakallah brother Qadhi
Moulana abul hasan nadwi has one volume on ibn taymiya which goes by the name tarik dawat wa azeemat it has also been translated in english by the title saviours of islamic spirit
Better for you as a Muslim to learn Arabic . Ibn Taymiyya said it is fard Ayn for every Muslim.=obligatory.
Immensely enjoyed watching this

Wonderful and intellectual. I am an Ashari Sunni, and I truly enjoyed this lecture. Allama Yasir has done a good job, but please please have cross dialogue with Ashairah like Hamza Yusuf, Sh Asrar Rasheed, Sh al Yaqoubi. This would be great service done
His some of the claims is problematic, he call theology as pseudo science...
Imam Ahmed (the only imam of the 4 to live in that time) opposed the ashari aqeedah
May Allah guide us to the truth
@@shuaibmohammedc it is a pseudo science
@@tataoma9976 no he did not
Masha Allah sheikh... Very nicely put forward... I hope people understand...
Thank you so much for this information. It as causes me to go to the library.
I cannot stop loving sheikh ibn taymiya, if only Shia and Sufi and other sects understand him, he takes us scripturaly and logically to Islam of first generation.
the only ones who are in a sect are the followers of ibn taymiah's anthropomorphism
he said that god is like a young man with long blond hair running in a meadow
your guru is a schizophrenical psychopath
without saud's hell money you would never have heard about him
Understand that he ascribed attributes of human face, eyes, hands etc etc to Allah (swt). Lahawlawala quwwat
@Path of Sahaba ua-cam.com/video/_cQBifAcpWk/v-deo.html this is just a glimpse for what is about to come for you InshaALLAH. InshaALLAH will discuss about his life and why many known sunni ulamas declared him as kafir. But if you still refute to all the statements then brother you are on the path of kufr. And what is this path of sahaba? Did they bring Islam or was it Holy Prophet (saww)? If you deem all the sahabas to be guided then brother you need to be schooled about that too.
@@hasanbilgrami5735 If Kalam theologans will reinterpret this verse about estewaa (being above the throne) because the act of being above a throne is human-like then they have to deny and reinterpret the hundreds of verses that describe Allah as seeing, hearing and speaking for these are indeed human-like as well. Of course Kalam and Ashari theologans will respond that the divine attributes of seeing, hearing, and speaking are in a modality كيفية that is befitting his Majesty and glory compared to those of man.
Ibn Taymeyyah and the Salaf before him demand that the same principle should be applied to the attribute of estewaa (being above the throne) as well. i.e God's estewaa above his throne is of a modality that is befitting to his Majesty and unlike that of man. It's the same principles when it comes to all Allah's attributes. We don't cherry pick based on our whims.
Ibn Taymeyyah and the salaf's position is very clear and straightforward when it comes to divine attributes: we should describe Allah only with the terms that He or His prophet used to describe Him and negate what Allah and his prophet negated.
That's why Ibn Taymeyyah refused to affirm or deny corporialism as it wasn't affirmed or denied by Allah or his prophet, so we don't go there and we don't speak about God without knowledge. We do not reinterpret what we simply don't like with our reasoning because human reasoning is limited to what we experienced in this earthly life where nothing is like God.
I would love to read the full dissertation. Amazing
Me too
I agree. Shaikh al Islaam ibn Taymiyyah was amazing.

Watching Dr. Yasir's presentation of his PhD on Ibn Taymiyyah is intriguing. Particularly when Dr. Yasir shows Ibn Taymiyyah as the pianeer who nigated and refuted all mutakallim contradicting to themselves. In reality Ibn Taymiyyah himselves immensves articulated about properties of Allah rendering hugely on his own intelectual capacity.

Can anybody add subtitle (english)? Because we'll translate but some words that we do not understand. Please?
People just have no idea the weight of the words that they are saying. May Allah have mercy on Ibn Taymiyyah, and may He have mercy on all the righteous scholars of Islam, ameen.
I do really hope that i can watch the Q&A session. It must be interesting.
To all the people spreading hate and filth below it really shows what is in your hearts. Fear Allah swt if you have any iman and speak good or remain silent. And please stop pretending to be scholars and giving fatwa on who was guided or misguided, and go learn how to read surah Fatiha.

Love the Sheikh for the sake of Almighty Allah...
The core of Tanzeeh is to believe that Allah is ABSOLUTELY beyond need and comparison. Hence, believing that Allah is a spatial entity or something with a size, shape, or form, is tantamount to tashbeeh (resembling Allah to the creations).
Abu Ja`far At-Tahawi said: "Allah is supremely clear of all boundaries, extremities, sides, organs, and appendages. None of the six directions contain Allah as is the case with all the originated beings."
Ali G this is the true sunni creed

There is only one clear verdict on this from Allah's Kalaam: Refer to Aayah 7 of Surah Aal e Imran: 03:07:= "It is He Who has revealed the Book to you. Some of its verses are absolutely clear and lucid, and these are the core of the Book. Others are ambiguous. Those in whose hearts there is perversity, always go about the part which is ambiguous, seeking mischief and seeking to arrive at its meaning arbitrarily, although none knows their true meaning except Allah. On the contrary, those firmly rooted in knowledge say: 'We believe in it; it is all from our Lord alone.' No one derives true admonition from anything except the men of understanding."
this verse alone refutes most of ibn taymiyah points mentioned in this video.

"Simple as this, leave it at that."
`Aqeedah really isn't that hard. Philosophy is really a perfect label for what it is - love of speaking. It's too much. Allah is One and Completely Unique. What's there to talk about?
Salaams bro!
Aqidah is not hard - it is the explanation of aqidah ('ilm al kalam / theology) which is hard and cannot simply be dismissed. Most believers simply accept the aqidah for what it is at face value and do not need to go further. But other people are so constituted that their intellect forces them to search into these matters - theoogy is a medicine for them, and also a shield and sword against heretics and non-believers.
Mohammed Hanif Very true, but it can lead very quickly to absurdity as well. Depth of understanding is a must.

Asalam Alkeoum
Jazak Allah Khair Shaikh, for everything you do, and I would like to request from you to addres an issue that is spreading a lot, which is "disrespect and disregarding scholars"
I've Lived in many places around the world for long times, not just visiting and one of the big issues that I'm seeing, is many professionals that are muslims disregard scholars
many saying the disaster of our Ummah is from the scholars
others make jokes on some fatwas or mistakes ....etc. from current and past scholars (even the Ulamma of the sahaba, and the 4 imams of the mathahib)
and many started making up fatwas that they think it's right and fits their brains (or desire) or from reading 10 or 20 random islamic books from here and there
I know the scholars can make mistakes, and yes using our brain to know what is wright from what is wrong from what is said ..... but disrespecting and talking badly about past and current scholars is not the way of our deen.
please can you focus a bit on this .... jazak Allah khair
jajakallah
@sheikh I want the book of ibn taymiyyah in English can you make your theses in book format because I use to read the books of imam ibn taymiyyah as well as yours too please send me your book in pdf format
If Shayk ul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah is not a Muslim, who is? You? You Ahlul takfeeri?

No hate. Asking for educational purposes
Turn from the majority to a small minority,
I'm not ashari sufi deobandi shia rafodhi etc, but what ibn taymiyyah wrote about Allah Almighty I strongly disagree with and so should everyone else.

Just read one of his book called AQEEDATUL TADMURRIYYAH
So much venom here below against Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahu'llah), it could make one sick! Truly the devil has beautified your actions in your own eyes.
Does God Almighty have a face? Yes, that's what HE says in the Qur'an.
Does He have two hands? Yes, that's what HE says in the Qur'an.
Can we ever imagine or understand what's meant by those words? Never! Not in this life.
So who gave YOU the right to negate those attributes or to interpret them as per YOUR own whims and intellectual taste?
This is NOT tajseem/anthropomorphism! It is simply an affirmation of God's own words WITHOUT any interpretation whatsoever.
May Allah guide those who genuinely seek His guidance.
excuse me brother,
can you please reference where Allah says He has hands or a face?
Mohammed Hanif
Dear Brother, if you're asking for an Aya that says something like: "I have a face" per se or "I have hands" per se, then you obviously won't find such ayat.
However, if you're asking for a literal reference to Allah's hands and face in the Qur'an, then please read below.
Reference to Allah's two hands in Aya 75 of Surat Sad:
قال يا إبليس ما منعك أن تسجد لما خلقت بيدي أستكبرت أم كنت من العالين
Here Allah (SWT) says: "I've created with my (own) two hands".
Reference to Allah's face in Aya 27 of Surat Ar-Rahman:
ويبقى وجه ربك ذو الجلال والإكرام
Fadi Al-Mufti dear brother,
Then when you wrote earlier: "yes that is what He says in the Quran" in reference to face and hands, you were making ta'weel and not taking these verses literally? You were.actually interpreting those verses despite saying you weren't.
The strict non-interpretive understanding of those 2 verses would be
1. God created with two Hands
2. The Face of our Rabb will remain
without saying He has two Hands or a Face or what these refer two.
My problen is that you seem to condemn some Muslims for interpreting these verses but you do so as well.
Mohammed Hanif Brother, may I ask you if you are an Arab yourself?
Fadi Al-Mufti no, I'm not an Arab.
does yasir qadhi mention ibn taymiya believed the world was always existing with Allah?
Does he mention ibn taymiya mentioned this in at least 7 of his books?
does he mention ibn taymiya went against the consensus of the scholars more than 50 times?
does he mention ibn tamiya said Allah sits on the Arsh (!) and leaves a space on it for Prophet Muhammad?
does he mention ibn taymiya was imprisoned 3 or 4 times and died in prison as a result of his heretical beliefs?
or does he believe all the scholars conspired against him and were haters?
Subahanallah. I wish the comments section was disabled. Ibn Taymiyya (rahimahullah) is a well respected scholar. And to see Muslims trying to use vulgar language and defame each other is so disheartening. May Allah guide us all to the straight path and accept our forgiveness and grant us Jannah. May Allah disgrace the people who disguise themselves as Muslims to create confusion and mischief. Ameen.

To say God has a body belittles God and is scientifically impossible.

They are abusing him and he is better than us
Which scholars of old referred to the Ashari's as Ahlul Sunnah? I don't mean in the broad sense, Sunni or Shia.
@123455667 like everyone except ibn taymia
The Problem which Muslim Ummah is facing today is that they dont respect if somebody disagrees with them , I m Shia Muslim , I myself read some of his work like Sharh Aqidatul Wastiya, I completely disagree with Ibn Taymiyyah thoughts , not only with him I also disagree with some thoughts of Shia Muslim scholar - Allamah Majlisi on Usool , but giving intellectual respect to some scholar is must , this is the same trend which i see when there is video about Imam Khomeini , instead of looking at his books like 40 Hadith , Discipline of Prayer etc , some people Misquote his book on some theological and Jurisprudential issue , i just said these words here becoz i saw comments below this Lecture in which ppl were sending somebody to Jannah and somebody to Hell , this attitude will make Islam a mockery ,which to some extent has happened , also followers of Shaykh Ibn Taymiyyah should also know to respect other scholars whether he is Sufi like Ibn Arabi or Barelvi or Shia so that despite our strong differences with ibn Taymiyyah still we respect his beliefs and rational thoughts , Inshallah the differences in this Ummah will flourish and enrich the Islamic Civilisation based on the principle of Tawheed and Universal Brotherhood

May Allah bless and prosper Dr Yasir Qadhi. Ameen.
Fakhruddin ar-razi seems a real rational and intelligent man who didn’t want to be a sheep and believe anything
One argument I did not hear the sheikh address...And that is, unlike mutazila, philosipha, etc. who were changing core meanings, taking metaphorical understandings of certain texts, like gods names, does not change the core meaning of the islam. The same message is taken away from either approach. Big difference in that and mutazila isnt it?
For example, Asharis say God cannot be on a throne, for it would assume, God is limited to time and space, therefore, it must be metaphorical. Asharis say, no God says he is on a throne, but it is unlike any throne we can comprehend. So essentially its really just a meaningless statement with no value, as they have no idea what the throne means. Therefore, the throne becomes metaphorical for them as well...What's the difference? Seems like semantics. At least with the Asharis, we can attempt to understand the text. The Atharis have no take away from the message.
Secondly, I wish he would address the role of metaphor in text. Does Ibn Tamiyah deny the existence of that? If so, that is strange, as metaphor is used all the time in language in Arabic poetry is it not? And is he does agree on the use of metaphor, where and when is it used in the texts and how do we know when to use it?
Thirdly, I wish he would have addressed the downside to literal interpretation of text. Namely its tendency to promote extremism and intolerance. Some text clearly contradict other text, without metaphorical understandings of some, how do you make sense of it all and reconcile it all together? Seems like you cant, and rather just ignore certain texts.
good questions
Just reading the type of aggressive, arrogant and foul language in this comments section proves the point that most often 99.9% will not read the actual works in full and if made simplified by a youtube lecture 80% will not bother to grasp what is being said but all will indulge in blind hero worship or blind hatred and engage in a drunken war of self righteousness.

How did Ibn Taymiyyah reconcile the fact that on one hand he discredits aql as being subject to the individual(subjective) and time(culture, surroundings etc.), and on the other hand he appeals to it to accept his arguments? If it's invalid to begin with, then surely accepting his arguments is just as prone to be wrong.
I find it fascinating that a lot of what he described against the rationalists(that they use difficult words and do the emperor-has-no-clothes thing) is happening now with the salafi atharis who do the exact same thing, but argue what he argued.
Shia are guilty of what they accuse others of
Al Kafi is the most authentic Shia Hadeeth book
We read
H 21, Ch. 1, h 21
Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from al-Washsha’ from alMuthanna
al-Hannat from al-Qutayba al-A 'sha’ from ibn abu Ya‘fur from a slave of clan of Shayban
from abu Ja‘far (a.s) who has said the following.
"When al-Qa’im, (the one who will rise with Divine Authority) the guardian, of our family will appear
from occultation, Allah will place His hand over the heads of His servants and, thus, He place their
intelligence together and complete their understanding."
Further more if we do not use our Akaal and ponder over verses then you will find many contradictions. Surah Iklaas is in direct refutation of God having literal hands even if they are like nothing we can comprehend.
Congratulation Mr. Qadhi!
@52 regarding "conditional belief"...isn't this also the aqeedah of iblees?!... just saying
dr yasir qadhi raheemullah
May Allah bless, prosper and protect Dr Qadhi and his family.
what is akel and what is nakal?
aqal = reason
naqal = transmitted texts ie. the Quran and Hadith
@@mohammedhanif6780
Aqil is intellectual , brain , common sence ,

So yasir is a graduate of wahabiayyah as taught in that university outside of medina city.
the part where he says "a daleel is not based on whether it is aql or naql but by the yaqeen reached by the aqil or naql due to the daleel's own merit" is a farce. It's word play. We know from the Imams of the salaf that one Imams daleel had no merit in the usul of another Imam. The debate has always been what is considered merit to whom. It's a fancy way of stating an obvious age-old fact the beginning seeker of knowledge even knows. It's just his way of saying "I already know I'm right and here's where I tell why i think so"
