1:50:00 I believe he is talking to self-righteous and arrogant people like you. I guess you were too prideful to finish what he had to say. May Allah guide you.

Muslims have lost the spirit of Islam and focused instead of trivial issues such as the length of beard and so on.

I wish everyone would watch this talk and think deeply about what this great man has to say.

And those who are criticizing this talk should learn about tolerance and respect.

Problems that the Sheikh put on the table are real and we should not dismiss them.

May Allah reward him and give him good health.

@ Brother Abd Rahman.

Ya akhi feeLLahi you misquoted Brother Suhaib. For example, you inserted the words “Qur’an and Sunnah” into the following quote: ““Clinging to the text (Quran and Sunnah) will lead you astray”. Brother Suhaib referred to classical texts in general (ie books of fiqh, tafseer, etc), and furthermore he clearly quoted that statement from a classical scholar; therefore, honesty requires citing that fact.

Also, it would be a strange day when everything a student of i’lm said was completely agreed to by everyone of Ahl al Sunnah. Even so, people’s statements should be evaluated according to the known character and expressed beliefs of that individual.

“Words spoken off the cuff are not indicative of all their implications and subtle meanings as much as they are just trying to hit home a general point. Aside from this, scholars are agreed that the indirect implications of a person’s statement are not to be taken into consideration when direct, unambiguous statements to the contrary are available from the same person. Imam Ibn al-Wazîr discusses this matter in his book al-`Awâsim wa al-Qawâsim and says that it is a matter of agreement between the people of knowledge.”

“I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, ‘Allah will not take away knowledge from His servants, but knowledge will be taken away as the men of knowledge are taken away until there is not a single man of knowledge left. Then people will take ignorant men for their leaders who will be asked something and give a fatwa (decision) without any knowledge. They will go astray and lead others astray.” (Bukhari and Muslim)

May Allah (swt) save this Ummah from the likes of Suhaib Webb!!

“Clinging to the text (Quran and Sunnah) will lead you astray”. (This is just what the Prophet (saw) told us to, especially in the time of fitna).
“We should make gay Muslims and adultrer Muslims and drug using Muslims ‘feel welcome’ “. (Should we not also lot them know that what they are doing is wrong and hated by their Creator?
“It is okay to have doubts”. (It is okay to contempalte and reflect, but it not okay to doubt. We must always try to reach certainty and conviction. Doubt is not to be tolerarted.
“I know this sisters is a sinner (constantly and perpertually neglecting the obligation of hijab) but I still love her, respect her, and give her a platform to speak”.
(Again how can we love sinners, and how can we allow them to speak for the Ummah. Remember that there is a difference between someone who sins once in a while and then makes repentence and admits their sin, and one who continues to sin).
“The distinction between dar ul islam and dar ul harb is not found in Quran and Sunnah” (How many are the ayahs in Quran and hadith of the Prophet (saw) which say that Allah is the only legislator. How then can we not make a distinction between lands where He is soverign and lands where is not.

What would the Prophet (saw) think if he heard this speech? What does Allah (swt)think of it?
Suhaib Webb wants to make a ‘comfortable’ life for American Muslims, but in the process he is compromising the Shariah. This is just what the people before us did. They sold their Din for this dunya.
Has not heard the hadith of the Prophet (saw) where he (saw) said that a time will come when holding on to you Din will be like holding on to fire?
