because they dont see that , being okay with just shaking hands because its just small thing to be a problem! but after time they want hug, they want kiss on chicks then problems will keep on coming because people will never be contented. and ISLAM prevents this problems despite with this ofcourse muslims are just humans commit mistakes but atleast we dont think that this is OKAY , we sin and we repent.

Look at Japan for example, no one will say that japanese people are backwards or weird because they dont hug strangers like people in the west, but when people in Saudi Arabia do the same thing people think it's strange or backwards or regressive. As a muslim I say this, if keeping with islamic ruling and legislation is regressive, then regressive is good. Progress isn't always a good thing..

This is about the "hugging & shaking hand" part.. There's easier way to understand this rule by knowing this basic rule : 1. If the person you about to hug/shake hand are a person who you can get marry to, it's HARAM (forbidden). 2. Therefore a small child, your mom, grandma..you get the picture...they are HALAL (allowed). You can only touch them hugging/hand shake once you get married. This is simply because human are weak to flesh.. A simple touch could end up to be something else..😅

10:35 Unfortunately this happens no matter what but in Islam, we can say with conviction that this is a human error. Muslims will sometimes lie to themselves or deliberately twist words to their own favor. For example, smoking! Islam strictly forbids eating/intaking anything that is purely harmful to you and (I think) addicting is also forbidden. Yet so many make excuses about why they can smoke cigarettes or shisha. Human's by nature will take the easy way out, it's almost inevitable. But thankfully, this is an individual issue, scholars will generally admit that this is not okay.

You can feel compassion WITHOUT physical contact. As you say, "the world is changing", we have a digital life now. We could hang out with people simply just by talking or texting with them. Also, if any non-Muslim refuse to be touched or hugged, people will say "Well, that's their privacy and personal space. You can't invade it without their consent". Irony, huh? Also, isn't there are five love language that people often to talk these days? There soooo many ways to express the love and compassion. Like Dakara Ma presented in her videos, we smile to people, we share/give food to other people (family, neighboring, friends, or just a stranger in needs), be kind with others, helping them, and says something kind to support them.

[@muhammedhussain1176]

Hugging the opposite gender in islam. 1. You can hug your family - people who you cannot marry for obvious reasons 2. You can hug an elderly , even in their death beds 3. Prevention is better than cure In Islam, the rules about men and women not touching each other are there to keep everyone safe. It's like saying it's better to stop something bad from happening in the first place, rather than trying to fix it after it's already happened. For example, if a man and a woman shake hands, and the man starts thinking he likes the woman just from that small touch, those thoughts could lead to bigger problems like arguments, sadness, or even more serious trouble. So, Islam tries to stop these problems before they even start. By not having men and women touch, it stops any bad thoughts or actions early on. This way, everyone is protected, and we don't have to worry about fixing problems because we've stopped them from happening in the first place. It's all about making sure every single person is safe and respected.

Traditionalism is not the same as conservatism. I think @monder9224 meant in a more meta narrative manner rather than the mere political dichotomy between conservatism and liberalism which both can be characterized as stemming from a wider ‘Liberal’ (modernist) view. Traditionalism is not a political perspective, rather a pre-modernist worldview itself. As it stands, it gives perhaps one of the strongest critiques of Modernism (by extension of liberalism)

In Islam, all thing in life has rules and guides to follow., it's guide us to we won't lost in our way, from wake up to sleep, such as: how to wake up so we feel grateful to be alive, how to take off our clothes, how to take a bath, how to dress, how to look at the mirror, how to cook, how to eat, how to drink, how to entering/exiting the house, how to depart to a journey (go to school/work/market/anywhere), how to study, how to work, how to sneeze, how to yawn, how to propose for marriage, how to do budgeting and spending money, how to behave around other people (parents, teacher, friends, or even stranger), how to take care of children, how to take care of parents, how to speak, how to stand in justice, how to forgive people, how to run a region, how to be leader, how to be a follower/supporter, and sooo many more that I can't write because I need to helping my sister. All of these and other rules you can find them in Qur'an and Sunnah. P.S.: For non-Muslims, maybe these rules are so annoying to follow, "oh, it's my body and my life, so I'll do what I want". It's okay. But didn't all of us follows our country's rules (like taxes or traffic rules)? Even more close, didn't we all live in our parents' house, and they set up their rules, so we grow to be good person? For student, we have the school rules. Worker has their company rules. What's wrong living with guides, rules and order?

Maa sha allah, ZABARDAST video and Zabardast reaction.

[@khairurrijalkhalis4172]

There are a few misunderstandings that often occur between Muslims and other religions. Like when you don't have contact with the opposite sex, where people think Muslims are 100% unable to interact with the opposite sex. Like a woman can't hug their little brother or father, that's not true. Interactions between women such as holding hands, hugging or even kissing men on the cheek are limited to men who are not directly related to the family. Muslim women can interact with their sons, with their brothers, with their fathers, with their uncles, with their grandfathers, with their cousins, because they have a close family relationship with her. However, this limitation only applies to people outside the family, including male friends, brothers-in-law, aunt's husband. The reason is quite simple because physical contact can cause feelings for both of them. And in Islam this can potentially lead to something undesirable, and often harms women. So the prohibition against having contact with the opposite sex is a limitation for men and protection for women. That's why touching the opposite sex is not a sin, it is a rule to protect the name of both.

[@Brahim0801]

To comment on what you guys said : Hugging the opposite gender is Haram but not if it's a daughter, a sister, a mother, a wife (ofc lol) grandmas and so on Now this is the main point There are actually other exceptions, for example you guys mentioned that it's a bit cold that you can't hug someone who's struggling with death and so on, well actually it's not that simple, now i can't just say it's halal or haram but it depends, if like your female relative is sick she is hurt and needed a hug im pretty sure it's cold to leave her like that, in cases like these Allah judges you by your intentions, the hug you'd give to someone who's sick is ofc without lustful intentions, and for that we say you can give a hug and the rest is up to Allah, also if she is the one who went for the hug of course you accept the hug, nothing wrong with that, your intention was to sooth the pain of someone else. And as usual, we always say Allah knows best.

[@Glitch_Demon21]

Just so you know, a girl can hug her biological dad, biological uncle, brother(biological or step-brother from mother's side but only If he got breastfeeded by the mom), biological son and her husband.

[@hhgffea]

Muslim woman here, we can hug young children, women, relatives. Hugging the opposite gender doesnt hold the same value to us. For non humans hugging between friends regardless of gender is the norm and how you express closeness. For muslim women, we have non muslim male friends and we are very clear in having boundaries so that male friend understand we appreciate their friendship as we converse with them, laugh with them and respect them. However, we dont wish to hug them. For non muslims going in for a hug is normal but for us not hugging men is normal. Its like how some Europeans kiss each on the cheek, in the UK most people don't practice that. Asian bow, most non asians don't practice that. Most people are comfortable with a friendly hug. For muslims we dont hug either. We tend to place our hands on our check. People adapt easily after this is explained. I have male friends and they arent bothered. We live in a world where opposite genders interact, muslims are more selective on the means but at the end of the day its really simple. Once our friends are used to that it, it become the norm. To the point my male friends would frick out if I hugged them thats how used to it they have become. Personality can be expressed in many ways. We are friendly by smiling, looking after our friends, having meaningful conversations and checking in with each other. Not hugging doesn't make us less friendly nor doesnt mean our friendships arent as valuable to us.

Hugging and hand shaking allowed for certain relatives. Like sister, mother , grandmother, aunt (sisters of mom & dad) etc... the persons you're not allowed to get married by the bond of blood. How it is proggressive to hug someone when you're allowed to marry with the person? Is this rational?

[@jo_jo12e]

Hugging in Islam is not acceptable to someone who is not a family member. For example, my brother and I hug each other. My uncle and I hug each other, but of course I will not like intimate hugs. It will be uncomfortable. At my university, we make friends with the boys within respectful limits. We share close seats, we exchange pens and books, and we study together. We don't need to shake hands when we have " alsalam ealaykum" Of course, my love for my friend will not reach the point of crying for him on his death bed, hugging him in the presence of his wife. My journey with him will end when I find the husband that Allah chosen for me. My love to my friend will be to help his wife and pray for him. Thank you for the reaction 💙

Firstly, let's talk about the 2 types of people when it comes to who you can have physical contact to, mahram and non-mahram people. Mahram people are those you can have physical contact with, and for girls can show their hair. People who come under the mahram category are your spouses, parents, grandparents. They are also the people whom you cannot marry. Non-mahram people are quite the opposite of muharram people and are the people whom you can marry. Now back to aunties and uncles. Aunties and uncles that would be considered be your MAHRAMS are those of your parents blood. So your father's siblings and your mother's siblings. So for a woman, your uncle who is your dad's sister's husband would STILL be your non-mahram, even though he's your uncle. I'm also certain that cousins are considered your non-mahram too, though don't just rely on me do some research too 😅 Anyway that's what I was taught by both school and my parents. If I have said anything wrong don't feel threatened to correct me in the replies 😅

[@yazmanyay4972]

Guys don't forget to do your research too, I may have missed some info out. And if I have said anything wrong again feel free to correct me :D

[@InabaAa-th1lp]

Muslim women CAN hug fathers, brothers and uncles

[@mona60102]

A very good and informative video, but she forgot to mention that women in Islam can hug and kiss their MEHRAMS meaning their brothers, fathers, sons, husbands, grand fathers and brothers of their moms and dads. But not cousins and husbands of their paternal and maternal aunts (among relatives).

[@janexdoee]

6:21 wanted to mention we CAN hug and touch family/close relatives. We’re not hermits that never speak to each other lol

[@user-sg3bn7yp1m]

The first thing I would like to clarify is that Islam has such perfect laws or rules that even in a progressing society you adapt to them with no problem whatsoever. Secondly, hugging or any physical contact is strictly prohibited when you don't know the opposite gender or they are not part of your family but hugging or other physical are allowed if it is your family. and this rule is to protect us so that someone doesn't take advantage of us.

[@stayspiritual]

I hear what your saying about the laws, I just know that depending on who your talking to, they might disagree. We would have to go through every rule, and even among Muslims I bet there would be disagreements. Life is very nuanced, and rules and laws evolve over time. I bet that even for a Muslim things have changed over the past 100 years, depending on where you live, relating to what your allowed to do and not do, as it relates to the Quran.

[@user-sg3bn7yp1m]

@@stayspiritual Then I would also like to add that this question was raised by Muslims way back in the day so that is why we have something called the " Four Imams" and every Muslim follows the rules of only one Imam for life but there rules are about the way of life so that solves all the problems we have

[@malakazzouz80]

she forgot to mention that we can touch and hugs and kiss our relatives dad brothers and famlly

[@anisbbk45]

Not completly right it depends on what kind of relative and uncles from both sides are mahram which means you can hug and kiss.

[@user-ov7nj6pz3c]

Islam teachs us every day moral that why we arent changing with time

[@bilbloblep6769]

10:20 there is actually something like that lol, instead of having to wash our feet every time you do ablution , you can instead lightly graze your socks with water , but this has some requirements aswell, like your socks have to be completely clean and you have to wear them after doing full body ablution (essentially just a shower with some extra steps) , then you can proceed to wetting your socks (lol) before prayer for the next day and a night then the ritual expires and you have to restart with a shower and clean socks. this might seem useless but trust me it makes a difference in winter if you suffer from chronic cold feet like me.

[@hellosigh]

[@remana2815]

We can hug our brothers and uncles and grandfathers and fathers etc..😂 she mean unrelated men

[@usmanfarooq9301]

Islam also has its own rules of Economics (for example "Interest" is forbidden).

[@ravz123]

When you haven’t hugged someone you won’t want to hug them in their death. We are ok with praying for them. And that’s the best thing anyone can do.

[@zennynurrohmawati799]

I love the arts.. so cuuute🥰🥰

[@leenaalghamdi620]

We are allowed to hug anyone that is related to us that can not possibly be our husbands in the future. Example grandfathers, uncles, my dad, brothers, sons, nephews… and I do agree with your point that with anything there are consequences, but if you compare one is clearly better than the other one. In other words, if you close the door and the window how much air can get in compares to leaving the door/ window open

[@tmr10059]

It's ironic that westerners sometimes call "angry Muslims" when only Muslims are angry if the Christian god is insulted

[@AliAbuzaid-sq9zm]

Hi I'm Muslim and I will tell you something about the hug 🫂. You can hug you brother and father but you can't hug other or other family members. 😊

[@booklovers1560]

Thats how you fight the tide, standing firm

[@hamidaittaleb825]

Just a correction about no hugging the other gender. You can hug your brother/sister, father/mother, niece/nephew, stepfather/stepmother, stepson/stepfather, basically, close relatives.

[@Rayjj7]

You seem like a good and genuine people so I just thought I should mention that the “distance” between the two genders is just for stranger and the people who someone “can marry”. Like it’s okay for siblings to hug and for parents with their kids or grandkids, for also nephews with their aunts and uncles. These people are your family and of course you can appreciate and love them as one’s family. The way you looked at it is from a male perspective, which is okay, but you know how some males force themselves into the females all over the world. This is a way to protect females rights, the way I see it. I am a woman who works closely with both genders and I LOVE it when males be mindful of their distance and try to move out of the way when I do my job. There are also some cases that of course physical contact is unavoidable. As in hospitals and such. These cases are okay like it’s not really up to you to decide if it’s critical situation or something. So these exceptions are fine, and this isn’t just new, it always has been. Keeping your livelihood safe is important in Islam that’s why even the prohibitions become allowed in such cases. I agree that some people need to be open minded and accept/understand others, but you are looking at it from a single lens which is the western perspective. I don’t really like it when westerners say that we should do something different just because of their own views. We view these things as orders from the creator who knows what’s best for you and what’s not. If people TRULY live their life following the Islamic teachings completely then I swear you won’t see any problem. Even westerners who have studied religion very well and are not biased will know that this is the truth.

[@kingcobra2013]

Just FYI..In Islam a female can hug her husband, her father, brother, son and uncles (father and mother's brothers).

[@limedragonz]

The point about “at death”, as Muslims we also have specific burial customs. There are specific rules after someone passes away about who can touch the body. There is also a strict timeline on how soon the body must be buried. So that relative who is across the country might not even make it in time for the janazah (funeral). 6:40

[@aioochy5695]

ummm y'all understood the "no touching the other gender" in a wrong way guys xD when we say this, we mean no touching people who are not family to u, or as we call them "non-Mahrams" which are the people who we should put hijab in front of them. so ofc u can hug ur brother or father or grandfather or uncle... plus in islam there is no such thing as "close friendships" with the other gender, but only friendships that are baced on respect if so. just like a worker would respect their co-worker and would do anything to help, but no more than that.. no hanging out and stuff.

[@Safia91]

When 'don't touch a stranger of the opposite sex' is controversial. It is society which need to change not the rule. Just don't touch a woman you are not committed to. This should be common sense. May Allah protect us from the devils plans

[@ayabaker3502]

About hugs in Islam, you can hug the opposite gender of your family members like your child (even your adopted child), spouse, parents, parents siblings, siblings, siblings children and you can hug your cousins/nieces until they are 12

[@textingworld897]

imagine seeing ur crush shaking hand with someone. imagine her hugging somene. what feeling gets formed? jealousy. imagine u shaking hand with some girl. what feeling u might get? you know it right. to prevent every those kind of feelings its said. moreover if ur gonna just go and hug some girl then whats difference between her husband and u???????

[@al9it_al9at9ot]

You can't hug strangers , if he was a friend yes you can You can hug your family the whole family from the grand parents to little brother

[@user-nv1vg7vb9j]

Mashallah brother

[@MohdHasriHassan]

Ok SO its only to male or female strangers that cannot touch each others but you can touch your family /the male in the fam .so only the related ❤hope you get it

[@insan8485]

There is a thing called mahram which includes your father, brother, grand father, son, step son, paternal uncle, maternal uncle, nephew and few More - which you can shake hands and hug other than these There is a Thing Called non mahram which includes every male outside The List Said where you can't have physical contact .

[@user-ls6sc5po1j]

6:26 brother, and fathers or uncles hahahaha it’s okay to hug them 😭😭 I am a Muslim and from Saudi Arabia

[@SHIERO_]

This is the most trivial way to learn about Islam

[@stayspiritual]

or freaking genius 😉✌

[@theductductgoose]

10:25 you're absolutely right, and I even have an example about this exact topic, wudu! (ablution, as she translated in the video). There is a hadith (saying from the prophet, pbuh) that says if you do an ablution, and then put socks on, you keep the ablution under the socks. meaning, if you break the ablution (going to the bathroom, passing gas, etc) then the next time you do an ablution, if you haven't taken the socks off, all you have to do is wipe over them. the same is true for hijab. BUT this is a thing that people will just conveniently leave out: the socks referred to in this hadith are *leather* socks. meaning waterproof! normal cotton socks of today do not fit the bill to apply this hadith! but people will stop you taking your socks off at the mosque for ablution and insist you don't need to.

[@hatemhashlamoun1915]

7:15 here there are a lot of relatives that women can hug and kiss (on the cheek) like brothers and father, strangers can't, which are all specified so it's not confusing
