- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2017
- We have argued in recent episodes that the over-reliance on problematic hadith has made Islam seem difficult and backward. Are there traditional principles that can help us revisit our approach to hadith? Shaykh Atabek Shukurov argues that Hanafi Principles of Testing Hadith can help us restore a balanced approach. Shaykh Abatek studied in Uzbekistan, Syria, and Al-Azhar University in Egypt. His is the author of the book, Hanafi Principles of Testing Hadith. Let’s get his thoughts now on the issue of over-reliance on hadith.

I truly appreciate this discussion. When I go through the Quran I have never had any trouble in its messages. In fact, I find it captivating in understanding and making sense of its verses. When I come across a few hadith on the other hand, I feel confused, deeply troubled and at a place of not recognizing the religion and even the Prophet that I have come to know and admire. Thank you to the people at Let the Quran Speak.
@@kanizfatima1377 Yes true. Like I said, a few. The hadiths have its importance and cannot be simply discarded. I hope to find more beautiful and true hadiths just like you have.
Willie brown- I agree! When I read the Quran I feel so much at ease and happy but some hadiths really disturb and make me uncomfortable. I’ve felt very disturbed by some hadiths even as a kid when I didn’t know the difference between hadith and Quran, I would hold both books close to my chest as if they’re the same. Of course I know difference today... but Allah has given children that natural feeling (as a means of self protection) when something doesn’t seem right, it also doesn’t feel right even if we don’t have the vocabulary developed to describe it. Today I can say with confidence that such hadiths need to be tossed away and we need to out more emphasis on the Quran which doesn’t teach such barbaric things or making the prophet saw seem like a violent person the way hadiths do.
Hadith destroyed my believe my respect & imam on islam(about captive women)
@@fatimaxo4885 true, we are abandoning quran for hadith, the complaint that prophet muhammad will say on judgement day in the quran
It doesn’t help that many Internet scholars claim Hadith are equal to Quran.
Some people follow all hadith. Some people dont follow hadith at all. Listen follow the hadith that agrees with the quran. Reject the ones that go against the quran...if you see some hadith that neither agree and go against the quran, then just give them a low status. As a student, i think this is the best way to study hadith
You are absolutely correct. The Qur'an is our furqan, or final criterion. There is no need to reject everything.
Do you tell me how you pray?
(A)llâhu nezzele ahsene-lhadîśi kitâben muteşâbihen meśâniye takşe’irru minhu culûdu-lleżîne yaḣşevne rabbehum śümme telînu culûduhum ve kulûbuhum ilâ żikri(A)llâh(i)(c) żâlike huda(A)llâhi yehdî bihi men yeşâ/(u)(c) vemen yudlili(A)llâhu femâ lehu min hâd(in). Allah has revealed the most beautiful Message in the form of a Book, consistent with itself, (yet) repeating (its teaching in various aspects):the skins of those who fear their Lord tremble thereat; then their skins and their hearts do soften to the celebration of Allah's praises. Such is the guidance of Allah. He guides therewith whom He pleases,but such as Allah leaves to stray, can have none to guide.
People Will say People WHO dont read or follow Hadith are kafir 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
This is a big problem in the Ummah
One question how would we check whether the hadith on the age of Aaisha is reliable.
These sorts of Ideas give me a hope and belief in Islam. I have had numerous doubts on the ethics and morality on many of the aspects of the religion. But this sort of fresh thinking is so highly needed, and would help solve some of the problems within the Muslim world today. My only melancholy is the idea that for hundreds of years Muslims have been misusing the Hadith and it is only now that we know to rethink what we believe a little.
No need to be sad. It just proves that the truth which is Quran will always rise to the top. Allahumdulillah.
MAASHALLAH. At last someone brave enough to propagate the use of logic..... May we all become 'people of understanding '. We forget the biggest sunnah, and that is that our Prophet Muhammad SAW lived the Quran. So I agree.... Quran rules supreme. it's time to filter out non authentic and contradictory hadeeth.
“Quran is fully detailed” so there isn’t much need to lock everything down that isn’t prescribed in the Quran itself. The arrogance of the Ummah to impose their own interpretation of Islam is a decease that needs to be addressed. The oppression that has ruined many lives needs to end.
The fact is that the Quran Alone is enough for guidance
It has already been done and dusted .
Please show the method of Salah as we pray, from Quran only.
You will not find in the Qur'an the "method" or "steps" or "raka" of how to pray, because this concept did not exist.
Allah asked the prophet and his people to pray, and they prayed.
This is so helpful- I have struggled so much to make sense of the hadith in my decade-long “career” as a Muslim. I was scared away from hadith because of the false ones and their being placed next to (or, quite often, above) the Qur’an. At this point, I view the Qur’an as a beautiful painting that is perfect in itself, with or without a gallery or museum to house it- but a good museum and a tour guide help us understand and enjoy the painting. The painting doesn’t need the museum, but the viewer does. They are tools- not perfect but they serve a purpose- to understand a perfect book. I should ask a good scholar if this analogy sounds right but that’s what I’m going with for now I guess. Allahu alim.
Exactly the same happened with me.i was brainwashed to believe in all hadiths.
Very intriguing analogy there!
@@nooralammolla7208 oh i ve been brain wash to believe in lot of things
Absolutely i agree, i realise long time ago listen to all and see what's the reason and logic, basically i follow all 4 schools thought
Remember the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in his farewell sermon stated we must follow Kitaab wa Sunnah, NOT Kitaab wa Ahaadith Saheehah.
I recommend you read Root Islamic Education by Shaykh Abdalqadir As-Sufi (RA), who made the distinction between Hadith and Sunnah very clear.
Hadith and Sunnah aren't synonymous and this is a very common mistake, leading to confusion and distress.
I like when he says to go to heaven just do the fundamentals which is don't lie, don't cheat people, etc, and then welcome to heaven.
I mean fair but there is a very long list of fundamentals and many MANY sins that one can get caught up in along the way. People need to be quite literally hold tight to the rope or Allah (ironically as it says in the Hadith) and do the best that we can to objectively follow things that are clear Islamically (for those who have sense at least)
Respect to the good Shaykh, Imam Hanifa was the closest to any of the early great scholar to the truth. Iblis is at work but Quran is protected and has all the tools to fight his screams.
Nicolás Vera Cabello bismillaah, don't compare between great scholars with such lowly and downgrading speech. you are nothing like any of these men and I advise you to be more careful in putting one scholar above the other. do what you can for the Deen and try to convey the message to the najs disbelievers instead of fighting amongst yourselves.
dont try it is possible. it is called ijtihad, and I suggest going and doing a class on the methods of rejecting and accepting evidences. a good place to start is the 40 Hadith Nawawi lecture series by Sheikh Navid Aziz.
Nicolás Vera Cabello and Don't Try you are well with in your rights to have a preferred so called school Allah SWT does tell us to ' listen to all kinds of speech and take the best" for our self development remember judgement day we are on our own armed only with what we have learned?
Mr T who sheikh atabek ?
Actually I would say Jaffar As Sadiq r.a.. He is the true Shaykh of Islam.
Seems like there were vibrant intellectual discussions between early scholars, knowing that gives me hope...there's room for intelligent debate regarding some of the controversial contemporary issues.
@aqeel -محمود that's why I got rid of my sahih al bukhari set all nine volumes in 2012! Gave it to Muslim charity shop. Even the charity worker was embarrassed with what I had to say on the matter.
@@mohammedjamil2277 all nine volumes
That is as it was in early times. Not so much now.
Masha Allah, may Allah bless you.
I came across such person for the first time.
Today people are fighting for many such issues that has nothing to do with basic principles of Islam.
Jazak Allah
As a revert to islam , i can say what really held me back from fully embracing islam is not the quran , which i think is perfect, but the hadith, which really made me flabbergasted
I also have problems with hadiths that cause disrespect to Rasulullah. The life of prophet should only bring admiration,.....
Indahnya Indonesia oh trnyata di indonesia ada jg org yg sepikiran dgn sy...
Lorenzo Lamas setuju. Banyak bgt.
Lorenzo Lamas ya.
Lorenzo Lamas harus hati2 juga mas, tapi quranis di indo lumayan bnyk.
Memang perawi dan pengumpul hadits tidak maksum. Saya juga agak ragu dengan hadits2 yang dijadikan alat untuk menyerang Rasullulah. Tapi selama hadits dan sunnah sejalan dengan Qur'an dan isinya baik, Insya Allah saya jalani. Tetap ada kemungkinan bahwa sunnah2 itu memang asli berasal dari nabi. Untuk para qur'anis, teknis menjalankan sholat, wudhu, puasa dan lain2 seperti apa ya?
Al-Quran is the most advanced book on earth, it is a living document meaning that we must always review the methodology of translation and interpretation. Unfortunately muslims scholars had never review 3 most important: The Logic/mantic/kalam, the usulut tafsir al-quran bil-quran, and the grammar of the arabic language.
Fakhr ud Deen Razi
Imam Ghazzali
Selamun aleyküm dear brothers and sisters. There is a slight misunderstanding among some muslims against hadith corpus. I like to think myself as a Quran-centric muslim. That's why I neither totally reject nor accept hadiths. You know why? Because there are many verses in Quran that asks the prophet Muhammed (pbuh) whether or not the stories of certain events or people has reached him or he has heard them. That means that even Allah (cc) doesn't disregard
the fact that some information can and will be transferred from people to people verbally and can be relied on that means you don't have to eyewitness the event and they don't necessarily have to be written in a holy book for them to be considered as truth. For example,
85/17: Has the story of the armies reached you?
79/15: Has there reached you the story of Moses?
105/1: Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with the men of the Elephant?
Pay attention the last verse I quote here. It is a known fact that dear prophet himself never witnessed the event itself yet Allah (cc) still asks him if he has any information about the event. That means Allah (cc) doesn't disregard the fact that some information can be transmitted from ear to ear. And these transmitted words don't have to be *always* false. Even the Qur'an itself came to us by the people before us. You may ask "ok but how can be sure which hadith to accept and which one to reject?" The answer is simple. If you put Quran in the center and check any hadith's meaning in correlation with Quran, you can easily realize whether or not something is against Quran or not because the prophet could never say something against the Qur'an. For example there is a hadith that says the prophet said to his daughter that "My dear daughter even I cannot save you from the fire..." Now let's check this hadith with Quran. 39/19: ... Then, can you save one who is in the Fire?
Now When we reconcile the hadith and verse it can be said that the hadith in question may have been uttered by the prophet because it is in agreement with the verse and there is no reason to reject this hadith and it is not even necessary for someone to be certain whether or not this hadith had really been uttered by the prophet because whoever formed that hadith it does not go against Quran. Of course there are many hadiths that goes against Quran, no harm rejecting them and I don't mean that every hadith can be found in Quran word by word. If they do not advise bad things there is no problem.
Finally Allah (cc) tells us to choose the best of the words.
Zumar 18: those who listen to what is said and follow the best of it. These are the ones ˹rightly˺ guided by Allah, and these are ˹truly˺ the people of reason.
I think our approach to hadith corpus should be like this. It doesn't matter from where or whom the words come as long as they do not go against the Quran and logic and they advise the good. The Quran is the ultimate guide. Let it guide you! There never comes good out of Total acceptance and rejection of anything.
Allah (cc) knows the best.
Selamun aleyküm dear brothers and sisters.

Walaykum as salam...I understand your viewpoint on this, but one thing: I don't think saying Allah (swt) 'admits' would be proper. Why would Allah, The Exalted, need to admit anything? I think using a different word would be more proper.
Just because Allah asks the prophet about certain stories by no means is a way of telling us that to its ok to use other books beside the Qur'an.
Brilliant comment. I agree. We should be Qur’an-centric but that doesn’t mean we should reject all hadith.
@@loveknight2245 I changed the word.
MashaAllaah wa Al hamdulillah! Great explanation akhi! BarakAllaahu Feekum, Aameen. It was funny when he said they missed the first and last part but "kept the licking bit". 😂 Classic
Alhamdolillah!! So glad I found this channel!
JazakAllah Khair.
There's another angle to this which this video alluded to, but was emphasised heavily in Shaykh Abdalqadir Al Murabit's work "Root Islamic Education".
The matter is, we have been ordered to follow "Kitaab wa Sunnah". Kitaab is obviously the Quran, but many are a bit unclear on what Sunnah is.
Many assume Sunnah=Hadith. As Sayyidah Aishah Bewley mentions, this is a false equivalency.
Hadith are statements but often in themselves mean nothing without a proper methodology in which to understand. Many are also ignorant of the methodology and ethos of various Ulama when they made their Hadith collections.
Malikis make a strong distinction between Hadith and Sunnah. We are obliged to know the Sunnah, which has largely been transmitted through amal, NOT through text. When one looks at the number of Sahabah narrating, they're few in number. Yet the Sahabah still taught Islaam via amal aka action aka Sunnah.
Thus even if a hadith is Saheeh, it does not mean it is necessarily the Sunnah to be followed and enacted upon.
Husbands and wives do not have the same rights. In the snippet which he quotes, it says that women have similar rights, not equal rights, and that men have a degree over women. The verse itself is about divorce and child custody.
How wonderful this program is. this program is great in totality but this one was absolutely the best.
A clear and straight path. Wow. Much obliged. Stay blessed, always
It is not any man to reject a hadith but it is the Quran that rejects hadith.
Masha Allah i liked it sister especially how you brought questions which relates to an ordinary Muslim.
Masha Allah, what a wonderful way this man has of speaking. I have never been more proud of being a Hanafi Muslim. I want to hear more about this brother. He speaks so calmly.
There is no such thing as Hanafi Muslim. We have only Muslims
The fiqh of imam Abu hanifa stipulated that the beard of a Muslim should not be less than 1 fist. This "imam" looks to be unaware of this.
All you have heard of is his opinion. This is not the concensus of the general ulema. Do not fall for things just because you like the sound of it.
It makes no sense that he technically defines usury of mortgages to be not usury by Islam. Islam forbids usury, which is selling money for higher amount of money or anything same for more amount of the same thing, eg some dates for more dates.
@@muhammadmustafiz8040 beard is Wajib in our fiqh not fardh

This was great advise alhamdulillah
Excellent knowledge, well said.
Very enlightening, Respect!! I would like to ask about the name of that Hanafi (RA) book which gives the guidance of rejecting hadith..
Very good discussion.
Excellent info!
Jazakallahu hairan... Very understandable
love this shaykh! hope to hear more!
A very informative and a much needed topic of discussion in today's world, especially for the younger Muslims like me who have probably heard more haidith in their lifetime than the translation of the Quran. For a while, I completly rejected all hadiths that I heard because I didn't quite understand them or just out of ignorance. However, I totally agree with shaykh for taking a balanced approach. Thanks to the whole team at "Quran Speaks" for the great work. Jazak Allah Khayran!
Masha Allah! Great explanation.
Maybe even imam bokharis book has been changed. In the early times there wasn’t many people who can write and read an that book ha published hundreds time. And why no one think about that when you hear a speech from someone you can not 100% remember it the same way and the Hadith has been written at least one generation after first Sahabi, so surly they didn’t remember everything what a sahabi says that has heard from Prophet peace upon him. They was human too.
Absolutely
Fair, but Islamic scholars and Imams have gone through a very rigorous process of preserving these Hadith. I don’t think it was perfect though, and I think some of the original Hadith (Saheeh or not) may be missing surrounding context due to the natural forgetfulness and imperfect memory of human beings, while others simply could have been translated or transmitted incorrectly, or worse and less likely, fabricated. However I don’t think that rejecting Hadith in their entirety is necessary or appropriate, I believe what’s best is rejecting the ones that contradict the Quran and ignoring others that seem to conflict with the Quran or present the prophet or Sahabah in a negative light based on what we know about their personalities and character. You cannot have a prophet (SAW) who is advocating for women’s rights and saying Muslims are all equal except for what Allah judges based on their good and bad deeds, and yet degrade or demean women and suggest that they’re inferior to their husbands or lacking mentally or spiritually.
Great talk.
I needed this so much
Finally!😊
Alhamdulillah the ending sentence answered the question keep it simple 5 basic principles good character
Read the Quran in the chronological order and you will understand much more
Was thinking about attempting this.
Im still divided in the belief it was revealed the way they say it was revealed as in out of order. But ill attempt it anyway.
However i am 100% confident the Quran was completely compiled prior to the Prophets(PBUH) demise.
I’m a revert, and I know what I’m about to say is unpopular but I don’t follow Hadith. I didn’t realize how many Muslims never read Quran to understand, but learned to recite . “Thee Alone do we worship, Thee alone do we seek for guidance” Pretty clear to me. Great lecture tho, very informative.
You need hadith to know how to recite the quran so it does not make sense to reject ahadith.
@@Bing.chilling.1 so you rather recite than understand?
@@andrewdelgado7020 i don't know if you're trolling or not, but just for your info if you are sincere ill explain: diacritic markings (fathah, kasra, dhammah) are not used in arabic originally and weren't used in old copies of Qu'ran until scholars added them to help non-arabs. How do we get these markings? From transmission of hadith.
It was more than extraordinary .... God bless you.
Welcome back and Salam.
Great video..JazakAllah Khair!

Dr Shabir Ally
Mufti Abu Layth
They help us to understand the real Islam!
I agree!
As personal advice, Mufti Abu Layth is not a reliable source as evidenced by his character and statements. I’m not saying this to bash him, but the man walks around in tight clothing that doesn’t properly conceal his Awrah, wears diamond necklaces and bracelets, and has said certain things are acceptable (like Muslims celebrating Christmas for example) which are undeniably haram and against the fundamental principles of Islam. He seems like a nice man, but his sense of judgement is heavily flawed and highly questionable from an Islamic point of view, he’s far from a Mufti.
I can't agree about Abu Layth because from what I've seen, his methodology is all over the place leading to all sorts of odd conclusions.
Wonderful 👍
Finally! I needed to hear this so bad
Thank you
A real hanafi scholar
When the shaykh is speaking arabic at 15:38, can someone please let me know what he is quoting? It sounds like Quran but I can't find the ayah. Jazakallah khair
All good, found it: 29:43 'Watilka alamthalu nadribuha lilnnasi wama yaAAqiluha illa alAAalimoona' "And so We propound these parables unto man: but none can grasp their innermost meaning save those who [of Us] are aware"
at 15:49 in the video he is quoting 58:11 of the Quran
I like this guy, he is very fair minded, and intelligent. We are told to study and find things that have truth to study something, we are told to seek out what is right and what is wrong. The Quran is the source of this guidance. There is nothing wrong with learning history, and even prove the Quran, see what archeologists and historians say compare and verify. In this case I would put the hadith not as a source of law for Muslims, but as a reference of let's say an idea of why a verse came down. And of course you look at history. Somet things can't be answered by history or by hadith. We take the hadith as a reference, but not as a guidance outside of the Quran. Meaning you can't make an islamic law out of hadith. You can make rulings based on the Quran and its interpetations and how they would fit into your society.
This saved me. For 2 yrs I doubted the ethics of islam. There is no reconciling some hadeeths and sira with kindness
Can you give some examples..
Specially the hadith of war and captives section. They are very dangerous. They are enough to make a Muslim to leave Islam
This is my struggle too. Esp Concubines
If I'm writing book about God can I say or call Kitabulla word of God?
The moment you say we hanafis...there's some problem...
Rather you would be more just if you said...imam Abu Hanifa has a stronger proof here...hence I take it....
You have a point... "we hanifis" does not come across good.
My question is very simple.
First is that plz tell me that if Prophet Muhammad PBUH nominated any Sahabi to write down Hadith as he one Sahabi was given the responsibility of writing down Versus.
2nd Question is that plz elaborate that if a subject was never discussed or touched by Holy Quran and you find many Hadith about that matter so how you would take those to belief.
3rd and last one is that when Hadith were started compiling and why you find even 7 hadith with various words and phrases on the same subject in contrast of Qur'an and it's verses
Will be much Obliged.
Regards
Easy to answer: Firstly there were many hadith written at the time of the prophet like the collection of hadith by the companion of the prophet Amr ibn al As in the book "Al Sahifah al Sadiqah". Imam Bukhari merely compiled hadith that already existed from the time of the prophet, they didn't come with something new.
Quick Question: The Quran says give the call to prayer(azan), what do you say in it? Do you just chant AZAN over and over, that's why you need hadith
#2: The Quran says perform Hajj and Umrah, what's the difference between the two??? Again you need the hadith

DO WE DO AWAY WITH HADEETH? OR WE TAKE WHAT GOES WUTH THE CONTENT OF THE QUR'AAN ONLY?
ALLAAH has warned of a fitnah (trial) that will befall people who disregard The Prophetic statements with the claim that there was a lot about them. See this:
فَلْيَحْذَرِ الَّذِينَ يُخَالِفُونَ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ أَن تُصِيبَهُمْ فِتْنَةٌ أَوْ يُصِيبَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
{And let those who oppose the Messenger's (Muhammad SAW) commandment (i.e. his Sunnah legal ways, orders, acts of worship, statements, etc.) (among the sects) beware, lest some Fitnah (disbelief, trials, afflictions, earthquakes, killing, overpowered by a tyrant, etc.) befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them}.
An-Noor, verse 63.
He also said:
وَإِنَّهُمْ لَيَصُدُّونَهُمْ عَنِ السَّبِيلِ وَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُم مُّهْتَدُونَ
{And verily, they (Satans / devils) hinder them from the Path (of ALLAAH), but they think that they are guided aright}. Az-Zukhruf, 37.
ALLAAH HAS ALSO INSTRUCTED TO HOLD UNTO WHATEVER THE PROPHET CAME WITH.
He said:
الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانتَهُوا وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ
{And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it), and fear ALLAAH. Verily, ALLAAH is Severe in punishment}. Al-Hashr, Verse 7
HE ORDERED TO OBEY ALLAAH AND TO OBEY THE PROPHET:
He said:
قُلْ أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْهِ مَا حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيْكُم مَّا حُمِّلْتُمْ وَإِن تُطِيعُوهُ تَهْتَدُوا وَمَا عَلَى الرَّسُولِ إِلَّا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ
Say: "Obey ALLAAH and obey the Messenger, but if you turn away, he (Messenger Muhammad SAW) is only responsible for the duty placed on him (i.e. to convey ALLAAH's Message) and you for that placed on you (to obey him by complying with the message). If you obey him, you shall be rightly guided. The Messenger's duty is only to convey (the message) in a clear way (i.e. to preach in a plain way)." An-Noor, verse 54.
He also said chapter 24,
وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ وَاحْذَرُوا فَإِن تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّمَا عَلَىٰ رَسُولِنَا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ
And obey ALLAAH and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW)) and fear ALLAAH. Then if you turn away, you should know that it is Our Messenger's duty to convey (the Message) in the clearest way.
Al-Maa'idah, verse 92.
He stated same message in Ch 47 verse 32 and added:
“and His Messenger, and do not render your deeds invalid (by disobeying The Prophet).
THE PROPHET PERFECTLY DESCRIBE PEOPLE LIKE THIS, AS IF HE EAS REFERRING TO THIS CHANNEL AND ITS BLIND, FOLLOWERS.
He said:
عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِيكَرِبَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
”أَلاَ هَلْ عَسَى رَجُلٌ يَبْلُغُهُ الْحَدِيثُ عَنِّي وَهُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى أَرِيكَتِهِ فَيَقُولُ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ حَلاَلاً اسْتَحْلَلْنَاهُ وَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ حَرَامًا حَرَّمْنَاهُ وَإِنَّ مَا حَرَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَمَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ“.
Narrated Al-Miqdam Ibn Ma'dikarib: that The Messenger of ALLAAH (صلى الله عليه و سلم) said: "Lo! Soon a Hadith from me will be conveyed to a man, while he is reclining on his couch, and he says:
“Between us and you is ALLAAH's Book (let's hold only to The Qur'aan). So whatever we find in it that is lawful, we consider lawful, and whatever we find in it that is unlawful, we consider it unlawful”.
Then The Prophet added a warning:
“Indeed whatever the Messenger of ALLAAH (ﷺ) made unlawful, it is the same as what ALLAAH has made unlawful."
At-Tirmidhiy, 2664,
Abu Dawud, 4604,
Ibn Majah 13,
Ibn Majah 12,
And so on.
INTELLECTUAL ARGUMENT:
Let's even assume what Dr Ally Shabir claims and this Atabek, is true.
The companions were closer to The Prophet.
They have told us The things The Prophet said.
Now, I want you to be very honest with yourselves. Do we throw all their narrations away in the claim that “it doesn't go with what the Qur'aan says”? The statements of The Prophet do not oppose The Qur'aan. It is our human shallow understanding that is defective.
You want to use Imaam Abu Haneefah's statements to discard that of The Prophet, as narrated by the Companions of The Prophet? Common! The companions were right there with The Prophet days and nights. Abu Haneefah was not even born when the last companion died in 95 or 103 years after Hijrah. Do we accept his own, and throw the companions own away?
Common sense determines that The opinions of The companions, not opposed by other companions supersedes that of Abu Haneefah.
WITNESSING THE REVELATION IS AN ADVANTAGE.
That the Prophet's companions witnessed the revelation of The Qur'aan is an advantage and they understood it better than any scholar that will live today. We should rather be follow the companions' assumed right ways than another person's assumed right. They knew the circumstances in which every verse was revealed and the reasons.
They stayed and were trained with and by the Prophet. They can't be wrong while Dr Shabir Aliy and Atabek are right.
If they narrated something, and we think they were wrong, do we then rely on Dr Shabir, who never met the Prophet?
Dr Atabek claimed Abu Haneefah was closer to the era of The Prophet than other Imaams. Same way The companions were closer to The Prophet than Abu Haneefah.

If the companions made mistakes, ALLAAH had promised to forgive them and told us He is pleased with them and promised them Al-Jannah. He also told us to follow their footsteps (see surah 9, Tawbah verse 100).
Lastly, I want to remind you that ALLAAH categorically told us that we can gain success in life and hereafter by following Him and His Messenger. He said:

The only saying of the faithful believers, when they are called to ALLAAH (His Words, The Quran) and His Messenger (SAW, his traditions), to judge between them, is that they say: "We hear and we obey." And such are the prosperous ones (who will live forever in Paradise). An-Noor, verse 51.
May ALLAAH set our affairs right and guide us to the right path and keep us guided. May He take our souls only when He's pleased with us.
Dear Muslims, let's think about the consequences of what we consume online.

That's why the Turks are necessary to Islam. They carry the hanafi madhhab which can make Islam a modern religion.
A liberating discussion, well done!
ABSOLUTELY GENIUS WOW
He also studied in Darul ulm Banori for 3 years and also I believe in Darulom karachi. Often the western centric muslims forget the science of islam us built on the contribution from the east nomatter how much they like to hide. Shaikh Atabek acknowledges this unlike the presenter.
Asalamu alykum wa rahmatu ALLAH wa barakatuh Quran Speaks could you expalain the 4 famous scools of Islam?
and jazakum ALLAH khayran.
More of such content please. Opinion of learned alims in hukum.
Thank you so much good work
very great video,
plz if u put a debate on orphans heirship in islam plz
Does anybody know what verse he quotes at 16:00?
Tom Ward
Ayah 11 of surah mujadala
James holmes True , Knowledge not=degree
Where can I find the real hanafi fiq?
Good but as for as correct logic is concerned,it reject everything that collides the Truth,it is a holy text or unholy text
I reject all haram, forbidden, punishment and reward (do this 3x get all sins erased nonesense) type hadith.
Sunnah was supposed to be about actions of the Prophet(PBUH) and mannerism, etiquettes ect. An example, especially for early converts, for how to behave and carry oneself and interact in social and private settings.
May Allah Subhanahu wa Taala bless the Shaikh! Amen!
Asalamu alykum wa rahmatu ALLAH wa barakatuh could you explain the 4 famous schools of Islam, and Jazakum ALLAH khayran.
Max Max they aren't schools, they are sects within the religion of sunnism.
5:38 reference of this Hadith?
I can't speak for Saudi, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
But rest of the Muslim world is desparately wanting scholars to revisit all interpretations and translations and science of hadiths.
We can't say that out loud because we are afraid that we will be called slaves of liberals, but attitude of traditional Interpretations and actual Qur'an text doesn't match at all.
Why can't we benifit from Qur'an at it's best potential, why these ultra traditionalists and literalists stop us from doing that?
They don't have monopoly over Qur'an.
Just because they got tawhid right doesn't mean everything they say is right.
And to detachment from old pagan religions and superstitions, we muslims are arriving on natural Tawhid on our own.
Shirk is dieing it's own death due to science.
90% of muslims are not even following what these literalists preach, muslims are living in apologetics fashion, because they can't practice literal meanings in practical life. Then why not give muslims the interpretation which they can practice in practical life.
May Allah make things easy for us.
Prevalence of a belief or a practice certainly does not make it right.
Belief and faith should not go against actual science.
I agree that it is ridiculous to think inspiration would conflict with revelation or God would sanction a prophet who would cause conflicts with his teachings by example.
It is important to realize the difference between what is attributed to Islam and how it may differ from its fundamentals and actually philosophy of religion.
If you're talking about the Salaf of Madinah, then yes it makes it a Sunnah guaranteed.
Hmm. I'm a bit wary of this video. It has some truth mixed with falsehood. He mentions a Hadith and makes the assertion that we can't rely on Hadith from prophet saw. However the Hadith in Q is mawqoof, not even a Hadith from prophet SAW. A lot of these types of ahadith are actually Israelite narrations from Jews n Christians
In order to know which hadith are basically a lie, then comparison with Quran is needed to clear them from trash....Or just not follow hadith...just because it's not that necessary in some cases of life.
Jenni Raisovna nope u shud follow hadist too...don't talk like that sister
Follow the real hadith, not fabrication.

Actually it's ijaza. Whichb is a stamp approval to teach th e Quran. But I know where your coming from. The guy is saying this as a fique prospectus.
"How can you understand the quran without hadiths?" Said the people who never read the quran on their own without hadiths and most probably never actually read but only merely memorize it and recite it.
There are certain things in the Quran which have additional details that are clarified in Hadith, which is why we have them. But the Hadith were intended to be a more detailed guide on how to handle various forms of guidance, not to overtake the Quran. But some issues are stark, like the killing of apostates for example even if they don’t betray the Muslim Ummah and are peaceful. The disagreement over issues like that literally causes people to murder one another, that’s extremely bad for the Ummah and it doesn’t make sense logically to kill a peaceful person who simply wants to leave Islam with no ill will towards the Muslims. That’s why we need more discussion and less rigidity on these issues

How many sahih hadith can one reject and still remain a muslim?
If the compilers of the hadith (all of them being Persians), have made significant errors, how can we trust them at all?
Are there any original writings by Bukhari or others?
If the Prophet a.s. has predicted the future and warned his Ummah about so many things (from proper use of bathroom to airplanes and Burj al Arab), why didn't he mention Bukhari or his likes?
Why didn't he leave a book of hadith or give the instructions how to collect and classify the hadith?
Tide Turns the prophet did tell he’s companions to learn what he said, abu huraira used to spend a third of his night memorizing Hadith. The prophet did not need to predict Bukhara because all Bukhara did was compile the teachings of the prophet.
they all were not persians

salam Sister, you brought a Gem discussion to us. May Allah bless you and your family.
Bismillahir rahmaniir Rahiim!
Asalamualikum! Scholars of Islam, Please read Quran 7:3 & 69:44-46, see if consistent with your teachings of Hadiths of men. Quran is complete, perfect, clear, in detail Words of Allah swt as finally & fully revealed to the last final Prophet Muhammad pbuh. How come after his death came thousands of hadiths of men all attributing them to Prophet Muhammad pbuh? How true they were all his words? How do you know hadith writers are not agents of the enemies of Islam when there is no way of confirming the TRUTH?
I am not a scholar of Islam but I search & studied not only the Quran & Bible in search of TRUTH & I finally found that it is nothing else but the Quran Alone.
Masha'allah! Subhanallah! Alhamdulillah! Allahu'akbar!
Hadith are absolutely a requirement to be a practicing Muslim in some capacity. It’s not unreasonable to believe that people documented the sayings of the rasool SAW during his lifetime (we have historical evidence of this as well), and thus the Hadith were born. However, the Hadith were meant to clarify some verses in the Quran. The Quran is perfect and complete in its own right in terms of laying out guidance, knowledge, ethics, rights, and punishments, absolutely. However, the Hadith serve to explain the details, rights, and conditions of the Quran’s verses and judgements, and I think it is appropriate to ignore any Hadith which doesn’t align with the Quran’s rulings and sounds questionable
Salaam. I'm a Jewish convert to Islam from Iranian and Aramaic background. I've been Muslim for 15 years and know if this hadith that says on the day of judgement the bushes and trees will speak and say, there's a Jew behind me, come kill him! This hadith really upsets me. Please explain this hadith, not just for me but also for general Muslims and non Muslims and people who follow this hadith literally. JZK
Ask this question on Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth on his channel. Insha allah hope your question gets answered.
That’s why don’t follow Hadith it is not a revelation like the Quran
I heard that's about the followers of dajjal who will be opposing muslims in a war , so not just any jew.
If we dont believe in hadist how do we know the movements of the shalat prayers ? how many rakaat for each shalat etc ? , since it is not mentioned in the Qur’an.. ..or you just cherry pick the hadists ?
Brother y do quranites are not following sunnah of Prophet Muhammad SAW.
I believe in one thing that if the hadit goes against the Quran then it is not acceptable.
What do you think of it brother.
Mohammed Rafi .. Of course, thats the no 1 rule..
@@ydw8405 brother my question to.
Reminder: don't be angry at me.
Do you really believe that the prophet is poisoned by Jewish woman.
Like what hadit says.
But that hadit is false.
What do you think of it.
Proof is here th-cam.com/video/gCid83kRA2I/w-d-xo.html
You need hadith to know how to recite the Qur'an so hadith is vital for understanding Islam. so I urge any muslims reading these comments to ignore them as they contain serious errors in aqeedah.
This video saved me
There is DEFINITELY an over-reliance on the hadiths and ignoring the Quran. It’s very sad, tragic, arrogant and even blasphemous. How can you take a single-narrator report and uproot verses from the Qur’an and Qur’anic principles?
Welcome to paradise..Insha Allah :-)
Weclome back 👐 Peace
Principials of hadith.
We can reject hadiths based on what
Which book of Abu Hanifa.
Ibadiya are the closest to authentic Islam. I'm really fascinated by them.
They are the earliest islamic school of thought initiated by Jabir ibn Zayd May Allah bless him.
Ladies and gentlemen you are witnessing first hand the evolution of islam. Same as the jews and Christians evolved over time. The age of the knowledge has ripped religion apart. Wow. Sahi hadith are being rejected left, right and centre.
Please no sweeping statements
I watched this programme and we know that there are people called Quran niyuun and basically they reject our profit’s saying. The Hadith is the explanation of the Quran. I have question for you show in the Quran how many Rakat are there in each salah? You have to refer for the hadiith. Ignore this man
Where there Hadiths...during Muhammad pbuh lifetime..or where they available the day after his death..no religion..should command you too become a scholar in order too get the message
Yes there were hadit just research everything before you speak.
I believe that you cannot make up knowledge if knowledge is lost.
YOU UNDERSTAND?
17:48 and note that Haroon was the Prophet there with them and even he could not stop Banu Israel from their disobedience!
most these hadith he speaks about are weak to begin with, so you know they are to be rejected without a need of using mans ration which can be compromised
Someone writing about prophet about prophet
Salaam! In the book entitled, "Knowledge of Allah", the shaykh who dictated the book said ",people are tied to the times they live in," it is obvious that we live in a time where kufr is the dominant ideology. It is the worship of the self and the intellect not the worship of Allah who created all of that. The result is confusion to the point that even the scholars are confused. The Quran and authentic hadith go hand in hand. It is not an obligation on the common everyday Muslim to be a scholar of tafsir of Quran or Hadith the obligation is to consult with the scholars on these issues. The common Muslim is obligated to learn the basics, The Kalima, how to pray, the halal and haraam and how to recite Quran correctly. Allah says in the Quran, "ask those who know if you don't know," Allah didn't say figure it out on your own! Lastly, another scholar said that there are fundamentally two forms of knowledge in our world, 1) knowledge which serves mankind, and 2) knowledge which mankind has to serve. The knowledge which serves mankind is technology, agricultural, and these type of things. The knowledge which mankind has to serve is the knowledge of Allah and the Prophetic way of life. In the beginning these two were connected, and the knowledge which mankind has to serve was above the knowledge which serves mankind. The Shaykh said that this order has been flipped upside down and the knowledge which serves mankind has become dominant over the knowledge that mankind has to serve, the knowledge of Allah and the Prophetic way of life , and this is the root cause of the disequalibrium in the world today. The Prophet (SAAW) is reported to have said in the khutba ta haja, "whomever Allah guides no one can lead astray, and whomever He has left to go astray no one can ever guide." Ya Ikhwan fear Allah and ask Allah for forgiveness and guidance, steadfastness in this Deen and well-being in this life and the Akhirah! Ameen and Allah knows best.Whatever was said that was correct is from Allah and what is incorrect and out of otder is from shaytan. May Allah forgive us increase us in the knowledge that benefits, and unite pur hearts on the Kalima Tayyiba Laa ilha illa Allah wa Muhammed ar Rasulullah
What funny those rejecting hadith completely is using shiekhs example to excuse themselves, the shaikh is not rejecting everything, while many here are rejecting all hadith so they can engage in things that hadith forbid. May Allah guide you people
His scholarship comes out when he speaks Arabic.
The host is sharp ma shaa Allah and follows through with questions well. The guest needs to work on his translations of the quranic verses specially if he want to use them as evidence to support a viewpoint. As an arab listener I felt his quranic quotes were out of place and translations inaccurate. Otherwise his hadeeth views are good and tallying with views of some scholars of the past and present.
Thank you for the interview.
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله و بركاته
Some of his reasoning is flawed. His attachment and ascription to being a Hanafi affects his ability to reason. He states in this video that he can not say that Saheeh al Bukhaari is the most authentic book or a completely authentic book because Bukhaari indirectly challenged Abu hanifah through it. He states numerous times that he cannot accept something because he is a hanafi. This is a closed and non-evidence based way of navigating the truth. These are claims that should be accepted or rejected based on them being true and being accurate or not and not anything else. The moment that you tie yourself to a principle or to a person or group that is always subject to change and susceptible to error you have set yourself up for misguidance. While he makes some great points I feel there is still an attachment to tradition that hinders his ability to be objective and view things without bias. I also feel with Shabir Ally that the reasons he gives for things being problematic are sometimes rooted in error. He will state that a Hadith is problematic because it makes things difficult for Muslims to, for example, buy a house because of the interest and for this reason it should be looked at. Or he will say that the ahaadith regarding music are problematic because we live in a time where music is unavoidable and it would limit us from being able to go to places like malls and this would be a type of extremism. These types of justifications focus on the difficulty a certain stance would cause to Muslims rather than the actual important thing which is whether or not it is prescribed or prohibited in a clear way. If it is proven that any of these things are prohibited or commanded and enjoined upon us as Muslims then it is for us to try our best to endure whatever hardship comes with that. It is difficult in many cases for a Muslim living in the west to socialise with non Muslim work colleagues without being prepared to go to bars and drink, or for many Muslim youth to fit in without being prepared to have casual and extra marital sexual encounters which are a norm in most western societies. None of these would be reasons to question the clearly established rulings pertaining to alcohol or Zina (adultery).
I am not making any claims about the validity of the prohibition of music or giving any rulings or fatwas on interest and its characteristics, permissibility or conditions. I am saying that the reasons for questioning these things should be based on their validity and adherence or opposition to the evidences and what is true and correct and not what hardship adhering to the truth entails.
I don’t care WHAT the truth is, I care that it is established based on clear, unambiguous and solid evidence and that once that is the case Allaah allows me to follow it, regardless of the hardship it entails, or on the flip side, the ease that it affords me.
You are absolutely right, Islam is complete. Not believing in hadiths only just because it is difficult to follow in current time is a sign of weak emaan.
Nothing that you said is in at odds with anything I said so I really don’t see what I’m wrong about. Would you care to elaborate and highlight what I said that contradicts the aayaat that you paraphrased? Allaah not wanting to cause hardship and granting us ease in the deen does not contradict the fact that an alcoholic finds it difficult to give up alcohol or the other examples I gave in the long comment I posted above. I think you completely missed my point.
Thank you brother.
DO WE DO AWAY WITH HADEETH? OR WE TAKE WHAT GOES WUTH THE CONTENT OF THE QUR'AAN ONLY?
ALLAAH has warned of a fitnah (trial) that will befall people who disregard The Prophetic statements with the claim that there was a lot about them. See this:
فَلْيَحْذَرِ الَّذِينَ يُخَالِفُونَ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ أَن تُصِيبَهُمْ فِتْنَةٌ أَوْ يُصِيبَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
{And let those who oppose the Messenger's (Muhammad SAW) commandment (i.e. his Sunnah legal ways, orders, acts of worship, statements, etc.) (among the sects) beware, lest some Fitnah (disbelief, trials, afflictions, earthquakes, killing, overpowered by a tyrant, etc.) befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them}.
An-Noor, verse 63.
He also said:
وَإِنَّهُمْ لَيَصُدُّونَهُمْ عَنِ السَّبِيلِ وَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُم مُّهْتَدُونَ
{And verily, they (Satans / devils) hinder them from the Path (of ALLAAH), but they think that they are guided aright}. Az-Zukhruf, 37.
ALLAAH HAS ALSO INSTRUCTED TO HOLD UNTO WHATEVER THE PROPHET CAME WITH.
He said:
الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانتَهُوا وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ
{And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it), and fear ALLAAH. Verily, ALLAAH is Severe in punishment}. Al-Hashr, Verse 7
HE ORDERED TO OBEY ALLAAH AND TO OBEY THE PROPHET:
He said:
قُلْ أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْهِ مَا حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيْكُم مَّا حُمِّلْتُمْ وَإِن تُطِيعُوهُ تَهْتَدُوا وَمَا عَلَى الرَّسُولِ إِلَّا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ
Say: "Obey ALLAAH and obey the Messenger, but if you turn away, he (Messenger Muhammad SAW) is only responsible for the duty placed on him (i.e. to convey ALLAAH's Message) and you for that placed on you (to obey him by complying with the message). If you obey him, you shall be rightly guided. The Messenger's duty is only to convey (the message) in a clear way (i.e. to preach in a plain way)." An-Noor, verse 54.
He also said chapter 24,
وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ وَاحْذَرُوا فَإِن تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّمَا عَلَىٰ رَسُولِنَا الْبَلَاغُ الْمُبِينُ
And obey ALLAAH and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW)) and fear ALLAAH. Then if you turn away, you should know that it is Our Messenger's duty to convey (the Message) in the clearest way.
Al-Maa'idah, verse 92.
He stated same message in Ch 47 verse 32 and added:
“and His Messenger, and do not render your deeds invalid (by disobeying The Prophet).
THE PROPHET PERFECTLY DESCRIBE PEOPLE LIKE THIS, AS IF HE EAS REFERRING TO THIS CHANNEL AND ITS BLIND, FOLLOWERS.
He said:
عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِيكَرِبَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
”أَلاَ هَلْ عَسَى رَجُلٌ يَبْلُغُهُ الْحَدِيثُ عَنِّي وَهُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى أَرِيكَتِهِ فَيَقُولُ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ حَلاَلاً اسْتَحْلَلْنَاهُ وَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ حَرَامًا حَرَّمْنَاهُ وَإِنَّ مَا حَرَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَمَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ“.
Narrated Al-Miqdam Ibn Ma'dikarib: that The Messenger of ALLAAH (صلى الله عليه و سلم) said: "Lo! Soon a Hadith from me will be conveyed to a man, while he is reclining on his couch, and he says:
“Between us and you is ALLAAH's Book (let's hold only to The Qur'aan). So whatever we find in it that is lawful, we consider lawful, and whatever we find in it that is unlawful, we consider it unlawful”.
Then The Prophet added a warning:
“Indeed whatever the Messenger of ALLAAH (ﷺ) made unlawful, it is the same as what ALLAAH has made unlawful."
At-Tirmidhiy, 2664,
Abu Dawud, 4604,
Ibn Majah 13,
Ibn Majah 12,
And so on.
INTELLECTUAL ARGUMENT:
Let's even assume what Dr Ally Shabir claims and this Atabek, is true.
The companions were closer to The Prophet.
They have told us The things The Prophet said.
Now, I want you to be very honest with yourselves. Do we throw all their narrations away in the claim that “it doesn't go with what the Qur'aan says”? The statements of The Prophet do not oppose The Qur'aan. It is our human shallow understanding that is defective.
You want to use Imaam Abu Haneefah's statements to discard that of The Prophet, as narrated by the Companions of The Prophet? Common! The companions were right there with The Prophet days and nights. Abu Haneefah was not even born when the last companion died in 95 or 103 years after Hijrah. Do we accept his own, and throw the companions own away?
Common sense determines that The opinions of The companions, not opposed by other companions supersedes that of Abu Haneefah.
WITNESSING THE REVELATION IS AN ADVANTAGE.
That the Prophet's companions witnessed the revelation of The Qur'aan is an advantage and they understood it better than any scholar that will live today. We should rather be follow the companions' assumed right ways than another person's assumed right. They knew the circumstances in which every verse was revealed and the reasons.
They stayed and were trained with and by the Prophet. They can't be wrong while Dr Shabir Aliy and Atabek are right.
If they narrated something, and we think they were wrong, do we then rely on Dr Shabir, who never met the Prophet?
Dr Atabek claimed Abu Haneefah was closer to the era of The Prophet than other Imaams. Same way The companions were closer to The Prophet than Abu Haneefah.
The earlier we follow The guidance of The Prophet the better for us.
If the companions made mistakes, ALLAAH had promised to forgive them and told us He is pleased with them and promised them Al-Jannah. He also told us to follow their footsteps (see surah 9, Tawbah verse 100).
Lastly, I want to remind you that ALLAAH categorically told us that we can gain success in life and hereafter by following Him and His Messenger. He said:
إِنَّمَا كَانَ قَوْلَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِذَا دُعُوا إِلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ لِيَحْكُمَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَن يَقُولُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا وَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ
The only saying of the faithful believers, when they are called to ALLAAH (His Words, The Quran) and His Messenger (SAW, his traditions), to judge between them, is that they say: "We hear and we obey." And such are the prosperous ones (who will live forever in Paradise). An-Noor, verse 51.
May ALLAAH set our affairs right and guide us to the right path and keep us guided. May He take our souls only when He's pleased with us.
