Baralu Allahu fikum. For those still disagree. Just my quick 2 cents: The cries of protests are from a people who don't have true Iman and reliance on Allah(they neither practice their Deen) nor understand what the power of Dua and Tawakal. And so us who have Allah as a Muala(Allah say they have no muala but the believers have Allah as their Muala) follow the path of a people who don't have Allah. That is a failure and humiliation. The civil movement is not even demonstrations it was fighting just as Palastinians come out of their houses for freedom. We can't even call them protesting. Civil rights movement was about a people taken and stolen from their lands and that came with it. Its not the same as masajids being closed or a wars happening. What would hearts who are lost do for Islam or for our brothers and sisters. Its not just Palestinians who are oppressed so this is a wider picture. And the government's never done anything to give Palestinians back their land. Rather it was the British government that gave Israelis Palastine. This has been for decades. Do you think Boris is gonna say "right, Israel get out and stop your oppression". Even if some mps were to speak up there are always people on the higher level that won't change it. They are allies to one another(and we ordered to be allies to one another too) they're not gonna break off from their allies because of justice, 1 because they are enemies to Muslims also they too carry out injustices and so hide behind others injustices so they are not called out for theirs as well as their interests. Allah Ta'ala has already told us and the Prophet has pathed the way. Let's even say OK we will protest, what kind of people join? Also, there are alot of agendas that people have against us and use that as an opportunity, for example Jews coming to protests trying to make us love them or sympathise with them(long discussion), they use this as a weapon just as the Christians have and is a major part why we are like this, they are smart and most of us think the love us spread vids about their protests with Muslims. As they say, bring your enemies closer than your friends and we are in trap. Wake up. We are not permitted to live in their lands so who are we to demand Masjid etc from them. We have a contract(legal papers to stay such as serving the country),also so that doesn't include us demanding what we want. The humiliation is not just Palestinian, it's all over. And that because it's the state of the Ummah, not what the enemies are doing per se. People need to come back to the Qur'aan and Sunnah. And as the shiekh said we think we have it in our hands(the power of change towards leaders). We should ask from Allah aline after practicing the Way the He orders us to take. The Qur'aan is a book of guidance. If we don't seek the means(people coming back to the Deen) and ask Allah then we will continue in the humiliation. Allah is the One who could change their hearts to do what we want and need once we come with what we are required. Not by not praying, fasting, giving zakat, free mixing, no hijab fahsha etc then shouting aside doors and most of the time violence. Do you think Allah is pleased with that? Being in your own land and oppressed is one thing and be else where where you are not in the face of danger is another thing. Even if you are in Palestine today, is being an excuse for us to not wear hijab, play music etc(not saying anything of the Palestinians)? Demonstrations are begging the kufar. And you are not to. The majority of the people who go for Demonstrations don't even practice their Deen so you think Allah will give them victory against leaders who are politically shut and themselves are oppressors. This is a long discussion. Protesting I begging and scream "you have power over us, help us or don't hurt us or give us" these begging and giving power to is only for Allah and only He can give us, protect us, help us. Majority don't even pray how do expect Allah will give power and honour back to the Ummah. People don't even know their religion and Majority of them are hypocrites and start barking for the wrong reasons or when it only touches them and not when Allah or His Deen are attacked(not saying demos needed then). It's like knowing you have a coward child yet saying go and beat up the entire playground. You have to teach your child to be brave and how to defend themselves. So don't think oh we can just learn and sit at home and be quiet. The knowledge required of course which 1st is Tawhiid. People are going about having Christmas parties yet claim to be Muslims youbthink Allah is gonna put power in to their cries. Allah is the One who subjugate the kufar and as a servant of Allah He can subjugate them in our favour. Masjid being closed either is not a time for Demonstration. Allāh Ta'ala doesn't live in the Masajids and He can worshipped on earth and in houses. A letter of bring to attention can be written by those who are in some what in charge but NOT a letter demanding. When we demand we uphold democracy and soo much more. If they refuse after even an reminder then Al Hamdulilāh the entire earth was given to us. We have already been given the entire earth,we don't need to beg. And it's even more incumbent on us to migrate to a Muslim land. If a Muslim leader banned a Masjid then that letter can be a demand as Muslims and tell them to fear Allah. But who are you to demand in their lands. Its like a guest demanding from you pork. Read more often the Qur'aan, learn the Seerah and you'll understand why we should 1st and always ask only from Allah and never beg the kufar.

So you would have told hazrat hussein to sit and pray , than go out to Kerbala.

[@purpleocean4806]

Muslim leaders are worse than western leaders. Look around you. Protesting is not "begging". It is demonstrating an opinion and solidarity on a particular topic, and voicing truth and justice. Not all protests contain the elements you describe. As for banning them due to free mixing. Look around you in this world. Where can you avoid free mixing... In the Muslim or non Muslim world. During your daily life you have to encounter the opposite gender. Most of the Islamic struggle was fought before the commandments of hijab came down. Those women stood firm. It is denigrating to assume people showing up to speak up for justice and stand up to be counted are focused on fahisha. First ban free mixing everywhere. Muslims are supposed to show up for the Eid prayer in large numbers precisely to show solidarity and strength in unity of the ummah. That is the aim of protests. To show a united voice. It is the avenue open to us in the modern world

[@sahara-gm8vq]

Yet again, someone acting like you can’t protest and demonstrate while also being a practicing religious muslim 😭 Your post aged really badly after this New war on 🍉 was started because so many things have happened that have proved your point wrong, and even in history. Do you think the steps toward correcting injustice never started with protest?? The injust Vietnam war was eventually brought to an end because of intense protest in America, slavery was finally brought to an end because of first protest and activism which then lead to the civil war that finally saw slaves freed. and the pal 🍉 people cried and were relieved to see messages of support from the protesting American universities, and made videos thanking them! Astaghfirullah, and you’re trying to advocate for taking away what is now their only hope for a change in their country. The audacity to even think you can claim that the Jews and Christians have some kind of agenda, I mean what is this? Can they never do anything right according to you, even when they HELP us you have something to say. who are you to judge their hearts and motivations, many of these people started out just protesting and ending up joining the deen too. I dearly hope you reconsider your points. Nobody is “begging” kuffar, we’re trying to force and pressure them, not “beg” on our knees. We absolutely have the right to do that if our tax money is being sent to murder people, so yes it does affect us. As for moving to a Muslim country, as we can see, these “muslim” leaders are also disgusting and corrupt, so it seems that according to you we’d be left with nothing to do but keep silent and just let them burn children in peace! Most of the time for anything else we’d say make dua and also effort in this life. Suddenly this is an exception? I make plenty of dua and yet I also still want to protest, it’s not mutually exclusive.

There's one area that I need clarification on, you mentioned shaykh 'uthaymeen has the opinion that if there's a greater harm (ie, the masajid being closed) then protesting is allowed, I was wondering isn't the lives of the Muslims more dear to Allah than a Masjid [The hadith, that the Muslim blood is more beloved to Allah than the ka'bah]? Could we argue every time a Muslim's life is in danger anywhere in the world, we can protest in the countries that can bring about a change for that/those Muslim(s)?

The arguments against protest in non-Muslim lands when people know it is not worship are weak. The good of the protest (the cause people are protesting for) is often greater than any harms (haraams) connected to protest. The good out weights the evil. For example, protesting to help Palestinians (to save the blood of Muslims) is a greater good than any evil that may come from the protest. Also it can be argued often protest are the lesser of two evils. So often what people are protesting in non-Muslim countries is stopping a greater evil continuing or a greater evil raising than the evils connected to the protest. Thus protest in non-Muslim countries is the lesser of two evils.

[@ozzieone16]

What good of protest is often greater? The harm is worse multiple elements of haram are in this with results of barely anything people have been protesting for years yet still their government is still funding Israel what good came out?

It is very disheartening that we preaching to the ordinary practising Muslim, who's trying their best through marches & sharing videos and images through social media, to voice their condemnation of the Israeli atrocities, condemn by the UN and many International Human Rights organizations and activists, some even calling it war crimes! It's even more disturbing, that we observe some modern-day Salafis are even have the audacity of questioning the validity (bidah or not) of Muslim demonstrations, Subgan-Allah! These preachings should rather be aimed at the leaders of the majority Muslim countries. They condemned with little actions! We know that the 4 Arab countries signed the so-called "deal of the century" Abraham Accord was all about greed. "Normalisation ties" that the Palestinians responded by saying that they've been stabbed in the back. Then there are the countries, that allow Israeli aeroplanes to fly over the airspace. The current supplicated Digital Age, never existed during the period of the Prophet (SWA) nor in the 3 generations that followed. Indeed, we should perform our Islamic duties in conjunction with obligatory Belief, Salah, Zakat, Sawm & Hajj (if you by the means) and the social media, to voice our condemnation and disgust of the illegitimate Occupation and Oppression of Palestine; their sufferings; blockade; siege; strangle-hold; water-contamination, etc. The list just goes on. No, we cannot sit back and "preach to the converted"!

Mashallah to the other brother for questioning and not just rolling over straight away. I feel Ustadh started off strongly debunking how the innovation and rebelling against a Muslim ruler points don't hold weight, but his reasoning that it 'distracts people from the remembrance of Allah' or that by not demonstrating at all it will 'destroy democracy' are equally as weak. The fact of the matter is you can't prove that protesting IN AND OF ITSELF is haram. As the brother mentioned a scenario where only brothers are protesting against british support of Israel, not to get closer to Allah, and this happens between salah times there is nothing wrong with that.

[@ballistic20vt]

A structured approach to the subject and interesting discussion. I feel like it was a stretch to make the principles set out in the beginning fit with the conclusion he tried to draw on the issue. There's 'free mixing' in supermarkets and haram things being sold there, lower your gaze and have some self control. Also looting and riots is being conflated with peaceful marches and protests in this video. Its a custom of the west (but not exclusively) for 100s of years. It doesn't matter if we are sure or not if its going to work, we are just following the means available to us, all of them. Literally been weeks of protests in London over Palestine. Peaceful and no harm. Plenty of places one can pray if one was going to anyway (as one should). It does draw people and allies to the cause and raises awareness on issues that could easily be hidden otherwise. In reality most of the arguments here could be said about the internet, social media and KZbin, yet here we are. I do agree that we shouldn't protest over trivial matters.

[@sumiyahyasin5887]

Totally disagree with this. 1. When I was in Syria I often heard 'The Syrians are peace loving, they will never uprise' ( Obviously now we know the Syrians were being prepared not to defend themselves, when their own 'Leaders' would inflict them ) It's crystal clear that narrative was being pushed to make the people cowards; at a time when their children, women and old would need them the most. 2. People advocating to remain silent in cases of injustice, is a narrative being pushed by the elite and those in power ( They want to hold on to their power at every cost) 3. Did Musa (PBUH) wait for Pharoah to leave his throne? 4. Did the handful of youth ( In Surah Kahf) not stand up against their Ruler and speak up? 4. Finally, what the masses are doing around the Globe is not Revolting. They are showing solidarity to the Oppressed, educating others and saying to the Oppressors that their Brutal Occupation is Unacceptable. 5. Whosoever of you sees an evil, let him change it with his hands; and if he is not able to do so, then with his tongue; and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart - and that is the weakest of faith [ Muslim]

Also how do we decide whether or not the matter were protesting for will do greater harm then protesting it self.... in example the free Palestine movement, is the situation of the people in Palestine; being blown up, dispositioned and attacked, is that harm to those people greater than the harm that will come from us protesting and how do we measure that?

@Efron F okay I see, I don’t know if I’m reaching here or wrong from this deduction but would I be right in saying... we’re just trying to get to the basics what is the long term plan does it stop at raising awareness or do we carry on protesting until the matter is actually solved in this example... would it just be the ceasefire or the removal of isrealis at a whole? if it has a long term goal how are we gonna get it through protesting does it turn to arms or any other method.... So possibly for short term goals you may be able to outweigh the bad that protesting causes... however if the goal is more long term you may not outweigh the bad that happens from protesting... Or you might be better off having another means of action for achieving that long term goal.

Protest? This is collective amr bil-maruf and nahy anil-munkar Allah says in the Qur'an: Let there arise out of you a band of people inviting to all that is good, enjoining what is right, and forbidding what is wrong: They are the ones to attain felicity. A band of Muslims must go out and condemn the evil of murdering innocent Muslims and enjoining the resistance against the murderers and thieves Allah says in the Qur'an: Rise for Allah, in ones and twos Allah says in the Qur'an: What's wrong with you that you do not fight in the way of Allah while the oppressed men, women and children call? Allah says in the Qur'an: Allah does not love loud odious words except for him who has been done an injustice, and Allah has been Ever-Hearing, Ever-Knowing. The companion and Prophet's grandson Husayn ibn Ali and his companions rose against the caliph of their time Yazid in protest as recorded by the consensus of historians through saheeh hadith The tabi' tabi'i Zayd ibn Ali, again a great great grandson of the Prophet, and his companions rose against Hisham the caliph in protest by the consensus of all historians through saheeh hadith The Sunnah is clear: Abu Sa‘id al-Khudri reported that the prophet Muhammad said, "Whoever amongst you sees an evil, he must change it with his hand. If he is not able to do so, then with his tongue. And if he is not able to do so, then with his heart, and that is the weakest form of faith" When we have the freedom to speak, we must change it with our tongues. Otherwise we are going against the saheeh hadith of the Prophet. The Qur'an and Sunnah and practice of Salaf call to rising up as a band of Muslims, even if one or two, loudly condemning the unjust and joining the struggle to liberate oppressed men, women, and children Only the CIA wants these verses and saheeh hadith and consensus history to be forgotten in order to favour Israel and Saudi Arabia.

The sheikh said if the issue is bigger then the protest should be done, but isn't what's happening in Palestine currently the bigger issue bigger than what's happening in protests. Children are being killed,sold, murdered,raped and Allah will question us why we didn't say anything about it. 3. As much as protesting has it's negatives it also has it's positives because a lot of ppl learn about what's happening by asking the crowds and social media blowing up . 4. What can we do to help though? We can't just sit by and watch and say protesting is haram so I can't do it but what else can we do.

@@abdul-hadidadkhah1459 yes they did have an effect. if it was not convenient for the elites the protest would not take place or the movement would be demonised. The success of protests is determined by the elites. They muster support and make the movement appeal to the general public or do the opposite. Protests are just a tool for them by which they can get support for a cause or demonise a cause. If they want the cause to succeed then the good publicity of the protest would prevail such that the public will support it once they become aware of it. Otherwise the opposite happens where the protesters are kept minimal, unheard or mocked tin-hat wearing conspiracy theorists by which a movement is only belittled. The elites can make it one way or another to change public perception, that’s all it takes. So do not think the protest comes from the people, it’s a spark started according to the convenience of those in control. A spark they add fuel to by mass media and other publicity.

@@abdul-hadidadkhah1459 call it Monkey’s theory then. I didn’t say all protests come from the elite. But it will only have mass support if it gets out in the public eye, aka by permission of the elite because its convenient. Otherwise they would crackdown on the movement or belittle it with mockery. Of the ways to win against an enemy without fighting is to demonise them especially by having someone infiltrate them and humiliate them with uncivilised savagery. Or to provoke them until they have no choice but to explode in reaction and then to capture their reaction. You talk about people cracking down on the civil rights movement initially. Ask yourself who was doing that? Why were they doing that? The south especially was excessively racist, sudden changes can lead to civil war and a paradigm shift in government acceptance towards coloured people by giving them more rights would not be tolerated by half of the USA. This acceptance had to be drilled into their heads overtime. To the point that even today racism has not been purged yet it matters not since the movement was successful and the elites gave it the green light to go. The government has to act like it’s with the people, every step of the way relating to them in order to gradually change overtime. Sudden changes in major attitudes won’t be received well, so there is no surprise the civil rights movement was initially met with overwhelming opposition only to be eventually brought into the masses with acceptance and sympathy.

What would hearts who are lost do for Islam or for our brothers and sisters. Its not just Palestinians who are oppressed so this is a wider picture. And the government's never done anything to give Palestinians back their land. Rather it was the British government that gave Israelis Palastine. This has been for decades. Do you think Boris is gonna say "right, Israel get out and stop your oppression". Even if some mps were to speak up there are always people on the higher level that won't change it. They are allies they're not gonna break off from their allies because of justice, 1 because they are enemies to Muslims also they too carry out injustices and so hide behind others injustices so they are caught out. Allah Ta'ala has already told us and the Prophet has pathed the way. Let's even say OK we will protest, what kind of people join? Also, there are alot of agendas that people have against us and use that as an opportunity, for example Jews coming to protests trying to make us love them or sympathise with them(long discussion). We are not permitted to live in their lands so who are we to demand Masjid etc from them. We have a contract(legal papers to stay such as serving the country),also so that doesn't include us demanding what we want. The humiliation is not just Palestinian, it's all over. And that because it's the state of the Ummah, not what the enemies are doing per se. People need to come back to the Qur'aan and Sunnah. And as the shiekh said we think we have it in our hands(the power of change towards leaders). We should ask from Allah aline after practicing the Way the He orders us to take. The Qur'aan is a book of guidance. If we don't seek the means(people coming back to the Deen) and ask Allah then we will continue in the humiliation. Allah is the One who could change their hearts to do what we want and need once we come with what we are required. Not by not praying, fasting, giving zakat, free mixing, no hijab fahsha etc then shouting aside doors and most of the time violence. Do you think Allah is pleased with that? Being in your own land and oppressed is one thing and be else where where you are not in the face of danger is another thing. Even if you are in Palestine today, is being an excuse for us to not wear hijab, play music etc(not saying anything of the Palestinians)? Demonstrations are begging the kufar. And you are not to. The majority of the people who go for Demonstrations don't even practice their Deen so you think Allah will give them victory against leaders who are politically shut and themselves are oppressors. This is a long discussion. Protesting I begging and scream "you have power over us, help us or don't hurt us or give us" these begging and giving power to is only for Allah and only He can give us, protect us, help us. Majority don't even pray how do expect Allah will give power and honour back to the Ummah.

Protesting is part and parcel of commanding good and forbidding evil. The believing men and believing women are allies of one another. They enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and establish prayer and give charity and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah will have mercy upon them. Verily, Allah is Almighty and Wise. Surat at-Tawba 9:71 Let there arise from you a nation inviting to good, enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong, and those will be the successful. Surat Ali Imran 3:104

[@nadhirabdullahmillatuibrahim]

@Fisabilillah فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّٰهِ You are wrong Jihad is the highest from of protesting under the umbrella of commanding good and forbidding evil. Before quoting great scholars (Hasan Al-Basri, Ahmad ibn Hanbal) from the past a question needs to be ask and answered. What you quoted were sayings about "rulers/leaders". Is what we see today like what the rulers and judges in the time of Hasan Al-Basri and Ahmad ibn Hanbal (Umawiyyah and ‘Abbassiyah Khilaafah) were upon? What type of rulers were Hasan Al-Basri and Ahmad ibn Hanbal refering to? What is the United Nations (UN), or the 50 different rulers/governments who have all abandoned all/part of the Islamic Sharia'? Our fiqh al-waaqi‘ (knowldege of current regional/world events) is not the same as Hasan Al-Basri and Ahmad ibn Hanbal. Ibn al-Qayyim said: The mufti or judge is not able to issue a fatwa or verdict without understanding two things: (i) Understanding and having a good grasp of reality: he should have a good understanding of what is happening, on the basis of circumstantial evidence and other signs, so that he has a full understanding of it. (ii) Understanding what is required in the light of these circumstances, which means understanding the ruling of Allah that He issued in His book or on the lips of His Messenger concerning this reality, then he should apply the one to the other . I‘laam al-Muwaqqi‘een, 1/87 Shaykh al-Albaani said, "... The ruling on a thing is a projection of one’s understanding of it, and that cannot be achieved except by understanding the circumstances surrounding the issue for which they have to give an answer. This is one of the bases of giving rulings and fatwas in particular, and is one of the principles of knowledge in general..." Su’aal wa Jawaab hawla Fiqh al-Waaqi‘, p. 14-16 Lastly, I have not giving Bay'ah (pledge of allegiance) to any ruler. I believe as Shaykh al-Albaani believed that there is no Bay'ah to the rulers today.

[@nadhirabdullahmillatuibrahim]

@Fisabilillah فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّٰهِ There are two matters/questions. (1) Have the ruler/government apostated (with proof from Allah)? And (2) is there a leader with support (scholars/military) to replace the current ruler/government. I say yes to question 1 and no to question 2. A ruling can be given without necessarily having ways/means to implement that said ruling. Shaykh al-Albaani views on Bay'ah in the link below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/banKhKWfbKd2fLc

[@nadhirabdullahmillatuibrahim]

@Fisabilillah فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّٰهِ I agree with al-Shaykh Ibn Baaz. I just believe that when all else has failed Jihad (fighting/war) is the final form of protesting.

[@elafzal5866]

​​@@nadhirabdullahmillatuibrahimWhy didnt the sahaba and the Prophet peace be upon him, protest during 10 years of oppression and suffering before performing Jihad? Was Jihad the last option for them after protesting for 10 years? No, they didnt resort to demonstrations. Never. What was their methodology then? Patience, holding on to the Qu'ran and Sunnah, staying away from sin and enjoin good. Giving da'wah. Or making hijrah(Abisiniyah) Also, you have not contested that protesting is impermissible because of the reasons mentioned in the video, you just consider it permissible and to be exhausted before performing jihad. Also can you give evidence for Jihad being a form of protest? Can you also give your evidence for your reasoning for protests being permissible? How can the means be halal if the demonstrations are inherintly linked to the harms mentioned by Ustadh? Surely if there was any good in it, the Prophet peace be upon him and sahabah would have resorted to it cause they suffered the most of all.

[@nadhirabdullahmillatuibrahim]

@@elafzal5866 Your foundational principle of why Muhammad (ﷺ) and the Sahaba didn't protest during 10 years of oppression is wrong. The Quran was not completed in those first 10 years. Since the Quran is complete we are no longer living in the Meccan period only. Alcoholic drinks were banned in the fourth year of the Hijra (Muslims migration from Mecca to Medina). By your logic, alcohol can be consumed because it was consumed during the first 10 years of Islam. Halal and Haram is determined by Allah. The general principle is that everything is halal except for what has been made haram by Allah. So, anyone claiming protesting is haram must provide proof for it being haram. Narrated Salman:" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was asked about fat, cheese, and furs, so he said: 'The lawful is what Allah made lawful in His Book, the unlawful is what Allah made unlawful in his Book, and what He was silent about; then it is among that for which He has pardoned.". sunnah.com/tirmidhi:1726 .Thus, Muhammad (ﷺ) referred to the general criterion for determining the halal and the haram. But since you wanted proof for protesting, then this verse is the proof, " You are the best nation produced as an example for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah...".(3:110). Lastly, the proof that Jihad is a type of protest is this hadith; narrated by Abu Sa'id al-Khudri the Prophet (ﷺ) said: The best fighting (Jihad) in the path of Allah is to speak a word of justice to an oppressive ruler. sunnah.com/abudawud:4344 .The below video explains protesting in detail.

[@muhammadkhurramahmed3815]

Ustad we have multiple examples of protests without any of these مفاسد you have mentioned in Pakistan at Press Club

[@alia-wm8ug]

These scholars have confused the Muslims of their roles in Islam. Most of them just want us to stay home and think about only ourselves and families salvation and to not speak against injustice and oppression that's been done on Muslims by their rulers. They are taught to protect the rulers at all costs even though our rulers have openly allied with the West and are trying to westernize and eliminate Islam even in Saudi Arabia by bringing singers and other Western culture.

[@PoeticSonic]

i think the brother missed a few points, is that a demonstration in of itself doesn't have to be made for the ruler of the country you are in, especially if you didn't do a mubai'a and this happens way more often than you think. for example, 1 country can take over another country, or it's still happening so the people use protest because they don't have physical weapons and this is the only way to fight against an invading force like India and Britain. protests are also used to gather people (increase confidence) to yes fight and cause damage if they were under occupation or a false leader. also you didn't answer what would the brother have done if a non Muslim country does destroy mosques and kill/ torture Muslims. china is currently doing it, France has already limited a lot who can wear the hijab and I'm pretty sure it totally prohibits niqab which is fard in islam. what then? you don't weapons to fight the government, so you can't defend your hurma (sanctity) other than using protesting as a weapon then we will need to discuss what makes a ruler a ruler in Islam. this alone changes a lot of things. also just because you say protests is the foundation of democracy, doesn't actually mean that it is objectively true. furthermore, most "democratic" systems in the west isn't real democratic systems, by voting, you are practically making mubaia3a which the people have the right to do. kingship isn't the only system of ruling in Islam. i can go on and on. as for saying there are bad things involved that are haram like free mixing and no control, well you can try elect leaders beforehand and sub leaders to look over the groups in the protest, basically, just look at the protests as war. they used to bring women with them in wars AND you couldn't control everybody in a war, some might even commit suicide or other haram things, does that mean wars are haram? i feel like both brothers aren't looking at it in the right way. ow and btw, for the black lives matter, the cops that killed the man that started the whole thing got prison time which they would have never ever happened if there was no protest, and other cops that killed black people have also gotten into much more trouble for doing what they do for black people than before the protest. and generally, every time black people protested, they gave more rights to not only to themselves but to other minorities too. think of it as a type of war. most wars these days are fought online with no bloodshed, protests are wars with varying amounts of bloodshed and weapons. sometimes those weapons are numbers, sometimes it's burning liquids in bottles.

So what is the solution

[@YasDD-z5q]

Assaalmu aleikum, jazakum Allahu khairan for sharing. I'm a European Muslim and I find surprising these conclusions. We deal with mixed environments in our everyday life and Islamic cultural communities or mosques may be closed during the week due to work. Islamic history is full of mixed situations, Aisha RA used to be a leading figure not only for women but also for men, the manager of the market at the time of the prophet sws was a woman, not a man. The point was just how to behave and deal with these situations, not to completely ban them. I'd say further things, but AlhamduliLlah I found them well summarized in the following video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6fOaZ55fZ1pkJI

[@YasDD-z5q]

Concerning the hypothetical risk of engaging in situations where there's harm, my question is then: In the West acts of islamophobia are rising. Sisters wearing the hijab may incur major risks. Thus, could the conclusion be: no more wearing the hijab? The same could be with driving, entering traffic may engage you in potential incidents (national statistics show that the death rate increases due to incidents). Would driving become haram because it could potentially harm ourselves and others? In the end, all arguments seem weak in a Western context. And starting with the assumption seems not applicable as there's no specific aya or hadith stating so. I'd say it's more a matter of engaging in an intellectual conversation considering different fatwas, opinions, and contexts. W'Allahu a3lem

[@adxm094]

‎وعليكم السلام‬, thank you for your comment on this matter brother. There’s just a few things, Aisha RA, even though she did lead an army it wasn’t under mixed circumstances. And with Khadijah RA when she was a business woman, she would hire people for the trades and didn’t do it herself. Yes, in the west we are in unavoidable situations where freemixing would take place but those are out of necessity, such as public travel. As for protesting, we are choosing to be there. ‎إن شاء الله‬ I hope this message reaches you in good health. ‎السلام عليكم‬

[@YasDD-z5q]

Baraka Allahu fik for your great replay! Much appreciated. I agree with what you shared. However, there are actual examples of women engaging in battle, i.e., Um Umara or Nusayba bint Kab in Uhud battle. The prophet allowed them to come to the field and they ended up playing a great role. Another name is Um Atiyyah who joined several battles. Women in general were strongly active in all societal fronts, from education to healthcare (a bit of Sira gives a lot of names). These are clear examples that the issue is not the mixed environment itself, but the way we behave (if we want, intentions themselves are crucial, first hadith al Bukhari). Let's take another example, the Hajj. Isn't it another highly mixed environment? And it's one of the five Islamic pillars. We engage in it with great commitment for the sake of Allah swt. Islam teaches us how to deal with the opposite gender, not how to avoid and ban it (we are indeed made also to build families, and so find our spouse). Let's take the teaching of lowering the gaze, such a teaching would have no meaning if we are made to live in non-mixed situations. Allah swt is the wisest and most knowledgeable, the all-knowing. The point then is not about banning these situations but about learning how to deal with them. Palestine is one of our crucial Islamic causes. I firmly believe that we have the responsibility to act and do our part. Praying, studying, sharing, and engaging in public discussions and events. Victory will come, it's Allah swt promise, but the effort is upon the Ummah (not only our Palestinian brother and sisters). @@adxm094

[@adxm094]

Jazakhallahun khairun for your detailed reply brother. Yes, indeed what you said about women participating in battle is correct. I was only trying to clarify the statement about Aisha RA. Your detailed reply is very much appreciated and of course the efforts are upon us. I would only disagree with the protesting but every other effort you mentioned such as events, studying, and sharing I 100%. May Allah bless you and grant the people of Palestine Freedom.

[@YasDD-z5q]

Amin, ajma3n brother. Giving a final comment, I'd say it depends on the context. If we have a look at the global situation, there's no country avoiding engaging in protest. not only in the West but also in the East. Let's take for example Turkey or Malaysia which are predominantly Muslim. Populations are rising their voices. And if you pay attention, in Turkey there are images where protests are endured with women and men separated, they are placed in two different groups to avoid the mixing issue previously mentioned. Thus, things are possible according to the local tradition and majority rules. In the West, we know to have major limits, and as for everyday life, we can deal with it in extreme situations like the current one. We are not engaging in it for fun, we are standing up against injustice and inhumanity for a cause that has its roots also in our Aqida. Let's all endure in deep prayers for our Palestinian brothers and sisters, in these hours of deep darkness and isolation they are facing. And the more they try to nullify and silence them, the more we raise their voice and cause. May Allah swt bless and guide us all toward UNITY. Free Palestine. @@adxm094

Protest? This is collective amr bil-maruf and nahy anil-munkar Allah says in the Qur'an: Let there arise out of you a band of people inviting to all that is good, enjoining what is right, and forbidding what is wrong: They are the ones to attain felicity. A band of Muslims must go out and condemn the evil of murdering innocent Muslims and enjoining the resistance against the murderers and thieves Allah says in the Qur'an: Rise for Allah, in ones and twos Allah says in the Qur'an: What's wrong with you that you do not fight in the way of Allah while the oppressed men, women and children call? Allah says in the Qur'an: Allah does not love loud odious words except for him who has been done an injustice, and Allah has been Ever-Hearing, Ever-Knowing. The companion and Prophet's grandson Husayn ibn Ali and his companions rose against the caliph of their time Yazid in protest as recorded by the consensus of historians through saheeh hadith The tabi' tabi'i Zayd ibn Ali, again a great great grandson of the Prophet, and his companions rose against Hisham the caliph in protest by the consensus of all historians through saheeh hadith The Sunnah is clear: Abu Sa‘id al-Khudri reported that the prophet Muhammad said, "Whoever amongst you sees an evil, he must change it with his hand. If he is not able to do so, then with his tongue. And if he is not able to do so, then with his heart, and that is the weakest form of faith" When we have the freedom to speak, we must change it with our tongues. Otherwise we are going against the saheeh hadith of the Prophet. The Qur'an and Sunnah and practice of Salaf call to rising up as a band of Muslims, even if one or two, loudly condemning the unjust and joining the struggle to liberate oppressed men, women, and children Only the CIA wants these verses and saheeh hadith and consensus history to be forgotten in order to favour Israel and Saudi Arabia.
