I love Sheikh Yasirs' Islamic history lectures... I've learned so much from them about Islam... May Allah give Sheikh Yasir a long life and grant him Jannatul Ferdaus... One small request to him - please continue the prophets series.... it was outstanding...
Lookin' good brother ✌🏼

Clearly from Hajja’s story we see that loving the Quran doesn’t necessarily mean one goes by it’s teachings.
So true this is why Implementing the Quran is much better than memorising it, however he died ad a muslim and upon knowing Allah is Al Ghafoor and Ar Rahman, we should leave his affairs to Allah.
@@billystanfield300 True, but this character seems to be a funny one! So it seems to point that he committed all the mass murdering with the thought that Allah will forgive him for all of it??? An average muslim trembels with fear as to whether Allah will forgive or not when they committ a sin of a way lesser magnitude! And look at Hajjaj on the other hand. Nevertheless, Allah is His judge. We all know the famous hadith of the man who was forgiven inspite of having murdered 99 people. May He forgive us for our lack of knowledge and understanding.
@@ambergris710 i agree, this is pretty much behaviour similar to that of the Khawarij, and his extreme love for the Ummayads and killing/cursing members of the sahaba and Ahlul Bayt are heinous to say the least but he ruled by shariah for the most part, helped islam spread to asia and helped push the Quran of Uthman ibn Affan Radiallahu Anhu (this does not take away from his sins and murders and open oppression upon the people) but in such an extreme and sensitive case like this we must leave his affairs with Allah swt
JazakAllah Sheikh my only source of learning our history is you. May Allah give you long healthy blessed life ameen
i love how he told us the multi sides of Al Hajjah personalities. So much we can learn from this lecture. May Allah grant sheikh a long and healthy life to Sheikh Yasir Qadhi so that he continues spreading knowledge and benefit the ummah
Ameen
Dear Sheikh Dr. Yasir Quadi, please please continue the prophet's story. For me it is as grand and important to us as the story of our prophet.
Jemil from Ethiopia
He has a who series on the Seerah of the prophet (pbuh) in his playlist.
Yasir! Brilliant! Just too brilliant dude!
LOVE where you’ve reached!
LOVE what you’re doing!
Keep it up bro! Just too good.
Ma sha Allah! Fantastic!
Go big guy! BIG.
I could show you ways to do it. smh alas
Two alphabets need replacement in first name! You know!
Just too good. Keep it up chief. Fantastic. Ma sha Allah!
mashAllah love this lecture
Mashaallah! YQ does it best !
This video is amazing.
Jakaza Allah kheir
Masha Allah. I love listening your khutbah eversince. Make me feel good. Alhamdulillah i am from philippines
Awesomeness why stop???? You could listen to his lectures for hours
JazakAllah Khair, I have developed interest in history because of you brother, your way of explaining incidents is beautiful and I love your tangents. May Allah bless you and your family, اللَّهُمَّ آمين
Hajjaj has always been a confounding figure to me. Thanks for summarising his "exploits". It's really difficult to put the two sides of him together. Looking forward to more like this.
Fascinating! Amazing!!! JazakAllahu khayr Shaykh. Loving your lessons. Especially your history lectures opener my eyes and my mind. They are so helpful to understand islam correctly. Please please continue with the help of Allah. May Allah give you the highest paradise and let me be your neighbour. Ameen.
Subhanu Allah al-azeem this reminds me of the times of dajjal. May Allah save us and keep us steadfast on the Deen of Allah at those troubled times and even now when there is so much distraction.
Jazak Allah khair sheikhana
‘Asim said:
I heard al-Hajjaj say on the pulpit: Fear Allah as much as possible; there is no exception in it. Hear and obey the Commander of the Faithful ‘Abd al-Malik; there is no exception in it. I swear by Allah, if order people to come but from a certain gate of the mosque, and they come out from another gate, their blood and their properties will be lawful for me. I swear by Allah, if I seize the tribe of Rabi’ah for the tribe of Mudar, it is lawful for me from Allah. Who will apologies to me for the slave of Hudhail (i.e. ‘Abd Allah b. Mas’ud) who thinks that his reading of the Quran is from Allah. I swear by Allah, it is a rhymed prose of the Bedouins. Allah did not reveal it to his Prophet (ﷺ). Who will apologies to me for these clients (non-Arab). One of them thinks that he will throw a stone and when it falls (on the ground) he says: Something new has happened. I swear by Allah, I shall leave them (ruined and perished) like the day that passes away.
He said: I mentioned it to al-A’mash. He said: I swear by Allah, I heard it from him.

The reason why Hajjaj loved Quran was because he was a poet and the Quran was and is the zenith of literature, grammar and Arabic from which one may derive poetic beauty. Being a poet, he was in love with the literature of the Quran. He was, however, totally blind to the teachings of the Quran. These are the people whom Allah refers to as deaf, dumb and blind, even when they have eyes, ears and tongue. Hajjaj loves Quranic literature, calligraphy, grammar and rhyme. But he learnt nothing from it. There hadith mentions that Allah can get good work done for Islam even from non-Muslims. Hajjaj was a namesake Muslim from whom Allah extracted some good for the ummah. But only Allah knows if Hajjaj was able to extract any good for himself from it. I highly doubt it but Allahu Aalam.
There is a scary hadith about a person who fasts in the month of Ramadan and still gets nothing from it except thirst & hunger. Again, the reason is because that person chose to stay hungry and thirsty but did not practice the intended purpose of what was to be achieved via fasting in the blessed month. May Allah protect us all from such deeds of vain.
My dear brothers and sisters, learn from his story and do NOT think of his biography as bad core mixed with some good. Rather, you should look at it as bad core with a varnish of good paint. People can recite the Quran beautifully and still not practice it. May Allah guide us, protect us all.
great video, MASHA ALLAH
Mashallah Tabarakallah Shaikh. Yey back to learn Islamic history.
Jazakum Allahu Khairan sheikh. Love these history lessons ❤️
YES!! I LOVE HISTORY TOPICS!
OMG murderer, shurta, demolisher of the Ka'bah- governor of Madinah and a poet: quite a figure was Hajjaj!! But also in service of spreading Islam, although conflicting with the other parts and difficult to reconcile.. I very much liked the remarks at the end - balanced as always. Ya Cheikh may Allah reward you 🤲
احب ياسر قدي ، ما شاء الله
Loved this lecture, I said before we need more animated videos but, I take that back I need more historical lecture regarding Islam.
Love this history lectures by Yasir Qadhi.:)
Allahu Akbar.. amazing history! Some humans are so complicated.. you just don't know which side to put them
SubhanAllah
We have an amazing Islamic History. Some times it is very hard to internalize it considering the time and place of its occurance.
Because before this War 2 main powerful castles of Islam, Turkey and Saudi Arabia were destroyed and since Pakistan was the last castle of Islam, then it was very essential to defend Pakistan in order to save Islam. #MuhammadQasimDreams

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu
وعليكم السالم ورمحة الله وبركاته
Plz continue Q&A as well
MiAW did the same when he surrounded Makkah.
Since Hujjah loved the Qur'an so much but didnt implemented it in his life , and even worse he did the exact opposite of what The Quran teachings were about.. it could be said that he loved Quran as an entertainment .. ! He loved the Rythm, the Rhymes of Qur'an as he loved Poetry so much.. it entertained him just as a song and poem is nowadays.. nothing more !! The "good" that he did by conquering India etc was with the intention for power of this dunya not at all for Allah as in details it clashed with the teachings of Quran..
Hello YQ, in Pakistan there is a man named Engineer Mohammad Ali Mirza who talks about Early Islamic history. He gained immense popularity in Urdu speaking peoples. His knowledge is so vast. Please check his video to know more about it. He is like you, great in history.
He is a fitna who recently talked about taking arms against Muawiya ra.
YQ presents the history how it should be taught unlike Engineer who brings no benefit rather misguidance for the lay man.
And Allah knows best.
he is a fraud
@@TheFuzail89
So you wouldn't fight against Mua'wiyah alongside Ali? So what use is this Caliphate you talk about to Non Muslims?? You can't even hypothetically stand up for your Khalifah Rashid, let alone any other Khalifah.
What about Sahih Bukhari 2812??
Will your love for Mua'wiyah tell you to ignore the Sahih Hadith?
@@watchmyplaylisttoopenyoureyes Lay Man? Do you think there's a priestly class in Islam?? Strange.
Millions of muslim Arab Hajjads nowadays.
assalmualaikum sir yasir Qadhi can you make a detailed video on the the life of malcolm x how can young muslims of this age can learn from malcolm x life in the context of his life and his contribution to islam and make todays muslims know about him
When Abdullah bin Zubair (r) was killed in Makkah. They beheaded him and hung his body while yelling “Allah Akbar”. Abdullah bin Umar (r) watching this said that people who said Allah Akbar upon his birth were better than these people. Why did he say that? There was a short period of time when Muslim male would die after birth but female would survive. People started getting worried that something isn’t wrong. Then Abdullah bin Zubair (r) was born but he didn’t die. So, the prophet (pbuh) held him up in his arms for everyone to see. Everyone started shouting “Allah Akbar”. Abdullah bin Umar (r) was young boy at the time and he was there with this his father. That’s why he said “people who said Allah Akbar at Abdullah bin Zubair’s birth were better people”.

Hajjajis life contrasted with his death bed poem, if true, is an unfathomably ironic. smh. sigh. lol.
I don't understand this character subhanallah. So much love and work for the quran but many actions are so contrary. Allah's qadar subhanallah.
I really laughed yaa shiekh when you said "imagine if the King and princes leds our prayers" but still the governer of makkah is shiekh sudies who is also imam of haram May Allah bestow you all .
Is thia from a monthly class?
Hadith mentioned by shaykh from Sahih Muslim:
Abu Naufal reported:
I saw (the dead body) of Abdullah b. Zubair hanging on the road of Medina (leading to Mecca). The Quraish passed by it and other people too, that Abdullah b. Umar happened to pass by it. He stood up there and said: May there be peace upon you, Abu Khubaib (the Kunya of Hadrat 'Abdullah b. Zubair), may there be peace upon you Abu Khubaib, may there be peace upon you, Abu Khubaib! By Allah, I used to forbid you from this; by Allah, I used to forbid you from this, by Allah I used to forbid you from this. By Allah, so far as I know, you had been very much devoted to fasting and prayer and you had been paying very much care to cementing the ties of blood. By Allah, the group to which you belong (are labelled) as (a) wicked (person) is indeed a fine group. Then 'Abdullah b. 'Umar went away. The stand 'Abdullah (b. 'Umar) took in regard to the inhuman treatment (meted out to 'Abdullah b. Zubair) and his words (in that connection) were conveyed to Hajjaj (b. Yusuf) and (as a consequence of that) he (the body of Abdullah b. Zubair) was brought down from the stump (the scaffold) by which it was hanging and thrown into the graves of the Jews. He (Hajjaj) sent (his messenger) to Asma' (bint Abu Bakr, 'Abdullah's mother). But she refused to come. He again sent the messenger to her with the message that she must come, otherwise he would bring her forcibly catching hold of her hair. But she again refused and said: By Allah, I will not come to you until you send one to me who would drag me by pulling my hair. Thereupon he said: Bring me my shoes. He put on his shoes and walked on quickly swollen with vanity and pride until he came to her and said: How do you find what I have done with the enemy of Allah? She said: I find that you wronged him in this world, whereas he has spoiled your next life. It has been conveyed to me that you used to call him ('Abdullah b. Zubair) as the son of one having two belts. By Allah, I am indeed (a woman) of two belts. One is that with the help of which I used to suspend high the food of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and that of Abu Bakr (making it out of the reach) of animals and, so far as the second belt is concerned, that is the belt which no woman can dispense with. Verily Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) told us that in Thaqif, there would be born a great liar and great murderer. The liar we have seen, and as far as the murderer is concerned, I do not find anyone else besides you. 'Thereupon he (Hajjaj) stood up and did not give any reply to her.

If anyone hated Abu Bakr, Umar or Aisha, you would not be taking a neutral stance Sheikh Yasir. You would never call such a person a "lover of the Qur'an". You would never talk about the positives of such a person. Why are you then doing so when it comes to someone who outwardly and proudly hated Ali? He literally cursed Ali in public and without remorse? Why the double standards? Are we not commanded to love all of the companions? Isn't it a pillar of Iman???
how will the companions and good people of this era justify their silence to tyranny?
did they fear tyrant more than Allah

I can’t believe, that someone like Hajjaj had sincere good intentions with his good accomplishments. Maybe it wasn’t for the sake of Allah but to impress and confuse people and get their respect for his Quranrecitation. And maybe he wanted power that’s why did conquests. Allahu a‘lam. We know that also Mujahids, Ulama and rich people who gave much Sadaqa will still go to hell because their intention was not for Allah. Maybe the intention of hajjaj was also not for the sake of Allah. How can one love the Quran and still violate its rulings??? He should have known better if he really loved the Quran. For what use is the recitation only if you don’t live by it?
He has the knowledge but still is not living by it. Like a donkey who is carrying books on its back… (like Allah described some of bani Israel who don’t live according to their book although they study it).
May Allah punish all tyrants who had no mercy for others. And May Allah also don’t show His mercy to them. They had power over the weak but Allah is most powerful.
I think you might be right about Hajjaj ibn Yusuf.
Interesting comment.
As much as I hate Hajjaj and as much as I wanna agree with you (in fact, what you wrote also crossed my mind when I was listening to the lecture), but we need to learn to know our place, and leave the affairs of intentions only to Allah AWJ.
Ameen ameen. May allah punish all tyrants. You spoke everything in mah brain and soul.

What a weird man Al Hajjaj
how can you say he was tyrant when you did not see him by your own. do you know Hujjaj and other Ummayad people contribution towards islam??? even Pakistan blessed with Islam at the time of Hujjaj and his nephew m.Qasim,. people like you have always portrayed Uammayad as tyrant and Hashmites as blessed ones
He really didn’t follow the teaching of the Quran. Allah alone is the judge of mankind but woe this guy he sounds so much like a tyrant.
Obiously he's going to be begging for Allah's mercy on his deathbed, that's what happens to every person in that moment knowing that there is no return. That doesn't show any iman in his heart. Very disappointed with this lecture because it seems like Yasir is defending the honour of Hajjaj to a certain extent. What use is "loving the Qur'an" when you hate Ali [which only a hypocrite does] and you don't take the salah seriously. How is a Nasibi tyrant who killed people for fun gonna be associated with Iman? I'm truly baffled by this lecture.
Thanks for reminding the hadith.
YQ referred to Iman as belief in Allah, His messengers, His books etc. His poetry does show that he believed. What he didn't do was couple this iman with with a'mal as salihat (good deeds). So may be there are levels of hypocrisy, like 1. of heart & 2. of actions. Hajjaj would be in the second.
You seem disappointed by YQ's stance of not judging Hajjaj's status himself. I think it's a neutral stand, not a sympathetic one. The lecture itself was informative & nicely delivered.
A lot of these people (listeners) actually secretly hate Ali, you can tell very easily by the way they defend the enemies of Ali and his children.
So it's no surprise that they defend someone like Hajjaj.
Just listen to some other lectures where Ali is mentioned. This guy downplays him so much, it's ridiculous. But if you say this to them they'll never admit it and make every excuse to prove you wrong.
Then they'll go right back to making "balanced statements" in which the honor of RasoolAllah's family is put at stake for the sake of defending Abu Sufyan's family.
Weird Aqeedah these people have.
@@amp7930 Brother his lectures are always informative and amazingly delivered, I have nothing against the Sheikh lol. Far from it. I have an issue with the stance, and yes you are correct. I have an issue with the neutrality of the stance. Iman is not simply saying you believe in Allah, you believe in the Qur'an, etc. Your actions can negate that belief, just like believing in another Prophet like the Ahmadies. On the outward appearance, yes Hajjaj was a Muslim, but he was not a Mu'min by any means. He was a hypocrite and a mass murderer, our stance on him should not be neutral whatsoever.
ALSO VERY IMPORTANT: Isn't loving the companions one of the pillars of Iman? So how can this person have Iman when he hates a Sahabi? and not just any Sahabi, we are talking about Ali ibn Abi Talib!!!!!
On the point of loving the Qur'an by the way, I don't think you can say he "loved the Qur'an". Again, you do not love the Qur'an if the words do not have any significant meaning to you. How can you claim to love something when you outwardly, willingly, and arrogantly go against it on a daily basis.
The point on Ali is very important here as well. The speakers are also quick to condemn and dissociate (I.e., not be neutral) when it comes to anyone who hates Abu Bakr and Umar. Why is there a leniency when it comes to Ali? Is Ali not of the 10? Is he not among the first 1-2 Muslims? Is he not karamullah wajha? I don't appreciate the double stanards/hesitancy when it comes to Ali. We cannot be "neutral" to a figure that openly and proudly cursed and hated Ali. I mean this is common sense bro
@@whatsgood7840 If Hajjaj outwardly and proudly cursed Abu Bakr and Umar, the speakers would be very hostile and very explicitly condemning him. But for some reason when it comes to Ali, there is a hesitancy to stake a stance. I don't understand. Who in the hell is Hajjaj compared to Ali? Why is this even a discussion we have to have. Very disappointed because yes I have noticed the things you are mentioning. That's one criticism I have of Sheikh Yasir Qadhi, he is a brilliant speaker and he is much more fair and tolerant than many others, but for some reason he has this hesitancy/weird reaction when it comes to anything related to Ali and his children. I do not understand why. Substitute the name Ali with anyone else and he will not have that kind of reaction.
I agree 💯
Your balanced statements mean that you're cursed never to actually stand up for the Truth and oppose the Evil. You try to butter everyone up because you don't want to fully take the right side against the wrong, and you think you're justified because of the times we live in. But you're not justified. Haq must always be stood up for, and Batil must always be opposed.
If you don't think Hajjaj and his entire movement was evil, you're not worth your salt as an Alim. Anyone can read Hadith books and books of Ulema and start giving lectures, it's the way they represent the truth is what matters. You haven't done any favors to truth with this lecture.
You've just buttered up people's ears who don't know about history in the first place. In a way, you've misguided them. May Allah forgive you and forgive us.
Lol, someone woke up. In the wrong side of the bed.
Did you really listen the lecture fully till the end? He just stating the facts. Never did he downplay AlHajjaj atrocious acts. In the real world , people personality is complex . Understanding that helps us grasp history or seerah better n how it can be related to real world current events. If we are just teaching kids or beginners seerah, mayb would be easier to just simply say fulan bin fulan is an evil guy or good guy. end of story. But for more advanced learners, it is beneficial to learn with more depth n nuance about the figure. Nothing wrong with that
@@SodaQuasar My brother, I'm sure there's a good side to Fir'aun too, but the way we would speak about that wouldn't be in a manner in which we downgrade his crimes. At the end of the day, he is an evil person. The Quran is filled with references to humans who are Shaytan, and humans who are evil, people who are enemies of Allah. Now none of us is so naiive to believe that they have never done any good at all in their lives. It's a given that they're human beings too and they also have mixed deeds. But their evil far outweighs the good, so Allah curses them. Hajjaj is someone who fits into that category. Brother Yasir Qadhi didn't do justice to all the Sahabah and children of Sahabah that Hajjaj killed, or the burnt cover of the Ka'bah, or the tears of Asma bint Abu Bakr, or the blood of Abdullah Ibn Umar and Abdullah Ibn Zubayr.
Everything is just washed away as political animosity, but don't forget that oppression and being oppressed are concepts that exist in the Quran, and they don't always mean religious oppression. Political oppression is still Zulm and it needs to be called out with passion.
He made Hajjaj look like a guy who people can appreciate. Hajjaj cannot be appreciated by righteous Muslims in any way. Not by anyone who knows the history.
@@whatsgood7840 if you listen to his other lecture about the siege of Mecca, he told the story in more detail about abdullah , asma n other sahabah during the siege n how AlHujjaj is indeed a very cruel tyrant. Perhaps if u listen to that lecture u would feel better? Again, sheikh ys and nobody here is justifying AlHujjaj actions. He was a tyrant, he was condemned times n times again in the lecture. Understanding that he got complex persona doesn't discount his crimes. At the end of the day, unlike firaun, he is still a muslim. That is where the difference lies. There is still a certain degree of akhlaq n hayaa that we as a muslim hold when discussing about another muslim, even a tyrant. Yes we condemn his actions , we condemn the killings n massacre he commited. We do not try to paint him as a hero. We need to acknowledge that he is evil, but he did some good, n the evil outweigh the good.. n Allah swt is going to judge him for this actions.
@@SodaQuasar "There's a certain level of Akhlaq and Haya we must have when we speak about another Muslim" I guess that's where we disagree. Because if a Muslim is more evil than a Non Muslim, we must definitely stand up against that evil passionately. No time to worry about Haya for someone who doesn't have Haya for the life of Muslims, especially Sahabah. I would have more Akhlaq and Haya speaking about Isaac Newton, even though he's a Non Muslim, than I would speaking about Hajjaj. Because the personalities are different. Not everything is based on Aqeedah. Nobody is denying the complex persona, but it definitely seems like Yasir Qadhi wants us to appreciate some things in Hajjaj. That's just too much. Appreciate Hajjaj why? Why do we need to have Akhlaq and Haya when speaking about Hajjaj? Did he have any Akhlaq or Haya when slaughtering the Sahabah? Why and for what reason would anybody have a soft spot for Hajjaj? Because he claimed to be a Muslim? Shia claim to be Muslims, do you guys have as big of a soft spot for them? Do you use Akhlaq and Haya when speaking about them? Quranists claim to be Muslims. What about gay people who claim to be Muslims?? Does claiming to be a Muslim mean we'll treat the criminal with more respect? That's not something based in Islam. In Islam a criminal is a criminal no matter what his Aqeedah is.
Yes Allah is the only and best judge, but Allah has given us criteria by which he will judge. If Hajjaj is forgiven, then the justice of Allah is such that we will all be forgiven for everything and nobody will be punished for anything. Because there's hardly any bigger criminals than Hajjaj in Islamic history.
There's a consistent praise of the Banu Umayyah that always comes from this platform, and it begs the question, what about all the Hadith in which the Banu Umayyah are clearly shown as oppressors and tyrants? I mean, Yasir Qadhi one time said that they spread Islam to the four corners of the globe. They did? It wasn't the decree of Allah?
Umar Ibn Khattab called Khalid Ibn Walid back from his position, because people were attributing the victories directly to Khalid. And the political victories of the Banu Umayyah are constantly portrayed as service to Islam, and they are the reason for Islam's glory? That's just not fair, and it's sad that people take these ideas seriously.
May Allah give us all the Tawfeeq to read the actual Hadith books in totality, instead of always learning our Deen through someone else's personal opinion.
Narendra Modi is much better than Hajjaj
Tyranny wise, NM seems 'much less bad' would be the term I'd use.
😂
I'm a Muslim and our towns are comfortable under NM.
May Allah have mercy on you Sheikh Yasir. I still respect and admire you immensely but please take off this blind Sunni filter you have on.
