I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who broughtOh people, we are your sisters, by God 😭😭😭 We do not even find a loaf of bread inside the house that would satisfy you, oh nation of Muhammad. People are brothers. Oh God, make your righteous servants subservient to us. Oh God, make your righteous servants subservient to us. My appeal to every Muslim, oh Lord, if he sees this message, may He prolong his life, make him happy, and cover him. May God reward him. God is sufficient for me, and He is the best disposer of affairs. There is no power or strength except with God. Oh people, oh nation of Muhammad, oh people of goodness, oh people of mercy. We are your sisters and your children. By God, we do not even find a loaf of bread inside the house that would satisfy you. Oh nation of Muhammad, I only spoke out of extreme hunger and distress. My mother, sisters, and I are displaced from our homes because of the war. We are in a state that no one knows about except God. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs, against those who brought us to this state 💔💔 By God Almighty, I only wrote this appeal out of extreme poverty and poverty, oh people. I beg you by God Almighty, Lord of the Mighty Throne, that I do not have food at home. By God, my brothers and sisters have been sitting around for two days. Without food, by God our situation is very difficult, we are 4 people in the house and my father passed away and there is no one to support us and we live in a rented house and we cannot pay the rest of the rent. I am not lying to you nor deceiving you nor cheating you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced because of the war between me and my family over a rent dispute and the owner of the house. By God, my brother comes every day and humiliates us and talks about us and wants us to go out to the street because we are unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and talked to the neighbors again and gave us a deadline until the end of the week and we swore to God to let us out of the street now we are in arrears of 60 thousand Yemeni riyals for 3 months rent may God have mercy on us our country is suffering because of this war and we do not find our daily sustenance and we live my mother and sisters our father passed away may God have mercy on him and we do not have anyone in the world to come to us in these harsh circumstances my little sisters went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stood at their door giving them even a piece of bread and by God in whose hand is the heavens and the earth they closed the door and kicked them out and they came back crying dying of hunger no one has mercy on them and now the holiday has come back to me if no one of us helps us with a kilo of flour by God we will die of hunger brother I seek refuge in God and then in you and I want your help for the sake of God I ask you by God you love goodness and help me even if it is about the rent of the house send me a WhatsApp message on this number 00967716649494 and ask for my card name and send it and do not delay may God compensate you with all good My little sisters, look at their situation and help us and save us before they throw us out into the street and humiliate us or my family and I die of hunger. We ask you by God, if you are able to help us, do not delay on us, and may God reward you with good.'~~_«%•&»_~~_~&:»'////;&&;&;&;;&🎉😢😢😢😢;&;&&&//&..,!~~~♡♡♡~~~♡~♡~•~•~•~•~♡~♡~♡~;l.i.i.i.i.i.l.|-~].{[¶≈{[¶≈{[¶≈{[¶≈{[¶≈{[¶≈{[¶≈{[¶≈{[¶≈&;;%&;;%;😭😭🥺🥺

Thanks man big video

[@acecream1411]

Two brilliant minds I lean more towards Al Ghazali‘s standpoint but can’t deny that Ibn taymiyya has some valid points which we see nowadays with all these different sects deviating from ahlus sunnah wal jamaah

[@AbrarManzoor]

Great video and well researched.

It was all done with ai. They just copy and pasted some text from both scholars and let ai do the rest

[@rgyalchanhussain9966]

Ibne Tammiyah himself was a sufi . He mentioned Abdul Qadir Gillani as Sheikh in his writings.

[@FarhanMahdi-hb8kn]

He appreciated some aspects of sufism doesnt mean he was a sufi. + abdul qadir zilani followed the salafs he wasnt a mutabidi.

[@HelloWorld-rg8ee]

He was not a suffi,het get jaild by the sufis.. he was hanbali

[@thanoonsaleh5460]

Because ibn taymiah was a hanbali at first just like abdulqader al gaillani

[@Fatehali-yg3ky]

Sheikh Abdul qadir gillani was not a Sufi but a scholar hanbali fiqh

[@tony.fergzn]

he classified tasawwuf in his kitaab al-Istiqaama as al-Tasawwuf and al-Tasawwuf al-Mohdath (the bida'ie method of sufism)

[@soulunknown1]

Is this a real conversation they had or one of fiction?

[@shuhaibali5795]

Fiction based on their opinion. Probably ibn tamaiya may have raised opinions. Since he was born centuries later

[@kaiserbeigh]

3:21 right on point

[@roshanburgai3902]

Imam Alghazali is at least 2 centuries closer to the Prophet Muhammad PBUH, that's one of the reasons I would accept Imam Alghazali over Ibn tayemia.

[@virtualwanderer]

That's a fallacious way to measure truth. There were many of those at the time of the salaf as salih that were upon the wrong path. It's like the verse where Allah says the misguided say "I follow what my forefathers did before me"

[@cano5063]

Ibn taymiyyah very much used philosophie all the time. Imam Ghazali refuted the philosophers.

[@virtualwanderer]

He used it to refute those who relied upon it. He didn't use it himself to justify his own position, only to demonstrate the irrationality of those who do.

[@cano5063]

@@virtualwanderer unfortunately not. If you read his works he also used philosophy to justify his positions on aqidah for example.

[@virtualwanderer]

@@cano5063 tell me which aqeedah book of his contains philosophy?

[@cano5063]

I think it was majmu al fatawa if i remember correctly. But it is a very well known fact. If you don’t believe me watch muhammad hijabs video about him. You can’t deny that Ibn taymiyyah used philosophy all the time.

[@virtualwanderer]

@cano5063 bro he used it in his booms refuting the philosphers. Majoo al fatawa is a collection of his fatwas, it's not a book of aqeedah like "aqeedah Al waasitiyyah". Anyways we can agree to disagree but I've read his aqeedah books and they're free from philosophy.

@@Mrfunny663vnb83 I dont see why people are obsessed with ibn taimiyya - his books are a jumble long winding boredom with no coherent argument or structure. Same with his sidekick the son of qayyim or chief janitor of Jawziyya academy schools.

[@yassersharif]

​@@ampagetech2624I'm a Sufi and I will tell you guys to fear Allah. These 2 scholars were incredible scholars. It's just that the Salafis miss quote them and cherry pick from them creating an illusion that they were Salafis, but Salafia is a modern movement.
