The fact that it was so distasteful and so severe got the point across, it really helps you to understand how severe shirk is, which most people don't understand and think it only means believing in multiple Gods.

[@t-4579]

The argument was that tawassul/istigatha isnt shirk especially as permitted by Imam Nawawi, Ibn Hajar, even Ibn Taymiyyah is recorded to have done it. Tbf even those who say its not shirk place heavy restrictions/say its haram as many laymen today misunderstand it. (Has he used same example for someone who is polythiest then people wouldnt have been as mad)

[@rolandgrodkowski771]

Except the example was wrong because tawassul isn't shirkh and therefore not worse than zina 😅 The evidence is there from major scholars and hadith like imam Nawawi etc.

[@roastingminer6919]

Tawassul and istigatha isnt shirk... IF done properly ofc, thats why it is advised that the layman does not do it unless he is learned enough

[@kinGsaL1515]

@@roastingminer6919 If you're making dua to anyone, because you believe them to be more pious than you and therefore think they can serve as an intermediate between you and Allah, this is shirk.

[@roastingminer6919]

@@kinGsaL1515 we make dua to Allah... How can you make dua to "anyone" else? And it's recommended to ask others to make/ seek dua of others. Like when you ask your brothers to make dua for you, when you seek dua through your parents. Making dua after fardh prayers, is mentioned in hadith to make dua after fardh prayer. The noble companions always asked the best of creation to make dua for them, was Allah not there to listen to their prayers directly? Of course Allah will still grant and listen to the sahabis dua, but they asked through the best of creation as he was beloved to Allah. Same way on yawm ul qiyamah, we will seek the "intercession" of the best of creation. Again, Allah will be able to hear us, but he will accept the dua of the best of creation and ONLY THEN will we continue. Edit: so we are asking Allah to accept our dua, for the sake of his mercy first, and his majesty first, but also for his love for his friends which he has mentioned (his friends) in the Qur'an

If he outwardly displays this then it will be accepted.” Then he recited the statement of Allāh the Exalted: (إِلَّا الَّذِينَ تَابُوا وَأَصْلَحُوا وَبَيَّنُوا فَأُولَٰئِكَ أَتُوبُ عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ ُ) [سورة البقرة 160] Except those who repent, rectify, and clarify; they are those who's repentance shall be accepted.

Hey I struggle with khushoo too, here are a few things that have helped me. 1. Understanding what I'm reciting in Salah. Learn the meaning of Surah Fatiha and everything else you say in Salah. 2. Being sincere and making sure I mean what I say e.g in Surah Fatiha 3. Taking long pauses after each ayah as Allah responds to us in Salah. Abu Huraira reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah Almighty said: I have divided prayer between Myself and My servant into two halves, and My servant shall have what he has asked for. When the servant says, ‘All praise is due to Allah the Lord of the worlds,’ Allah says: My servant has praised Me. When he says, ‘The Gracious, the Merciful,’ Allah says: My servant has exalted Me. When he says, ‘The Master of the Day of Judgment,’ Allah says: My servant has glorified Me, and My servant has submitted to Me. When he says, ‘You alone we worship, You alone we ask for help,’ Allah says: This is between Me and My servant, and My servant will have what he has asked for. When he says, ‘Guide us to the straight path, the path of those whom you have favored, not those who earned wrath and went astray,’ Allah says: This is for My servant, and My servant will have what he has asked for.” Source: Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 395 And finally, I saw this video pls watch it, its like 2 mins and this has been a life changer.

Assalaamulaikum ustadh, for me the main concern is not the example, but rather how you view istigatha. I personally do not partake in this, but you make it seem as if it is an action that is kufr. Those who practice istigatha, have a large sum of authentic evidences that justify it. And if you are so inclined to the view that it is shirk/ kufr, why is it that you nor Ustadh Abdul Rahman Hassan were unable to convey this to Shaykh Asrar Rashid. Rather you both held the position that it is haram, and not shirk. If you can do an in-depth video where you objectively review the arguments and explain your position this would be very beneficial.

Sunan Ibn Majah 2274 It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "There are seventy degrees of usury, the least of which is equivalent to a man having intercourse with his mother." حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْشَرٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏ "‏ الرِّبَا سَبْعُونَ حُوبًا أَيْسَرُهَا أَنْ يَنْكِحَ الرَّجُلُ أُمَّهُ ‏"‏ ‏.

Obviously they will take this video out of context and make it look bad.

Alhamdulillah

The example is from Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab

...as least it proved the point of how bad & evil Shirk is.😈🤷🏿‍♂️

Do you have proof you are related to the Prophet (ﷺ)

we all make mistakes

[@SD-yf9hw]

Imagine someone has to apologise for an example 😂 you people are soft.

[@hakimvlogs6579]

What did he say wrong though? Shirk is worse than zina There’s no debate about it

[@jamaal7505]

Asking the Prophet (saw) to make dua for you when he was alive is proven in ahadith such as that of the blind man. Now that he has returned to Allah it is merely bidah to ask the Prophet SAW to make dua to Allah for something.

[@jamaal7505]

Also the example was very disturbing so may Allah forgive Abu Taymiyyah for even mentioning it

[@hakimvlogs6579]

@@jamaal7505 this is what I don’t get you Sufi / asharis are arguing against a shirk using a bidah 😂 so you’re clearly accepting it’s Biddah at least so why you so adamant for it? Your argument don’t have legs to stand on, you’re like saying oh it’s bidah not shirk so it’s okay, loool how’s that make any sense? Also that’s when he was alive.. now he’s not alive and there’s a big difference
