    Avoid criticizing the female activist, it is through her way of questioning we see the beauty of Shaykh Hamza's character displayed in his answer. The ˹true˺ servants of the Most Compassionate are those who walk on the earth humbly, and when the foolish address them ˹improperly˺, they only respond with peace. [Qur'an 25:63]. May Allah guide her and us to the right path.

    You are 100% right . Even though I have been in shaikh hamza Yusuf’s lectures a lot and I respect him so much but here once again we all witnessed his humbleness and patience. If she didn’t ask or act the way she did or what she asked shaykh hamza wouldn’t even talk about it from his point of view . Everything happens for a reason . She showed who she is and what her views are and helped us appreciate who we are learning the religion from .

    Don’t you all remember the Bedouin in the time of the Prophet saws, he didn’t complain or shame like many of you are doing to this women. She was frustrated and how typical to say a woman is to emotional etc... if it was a man I bet you wouldn’t say it. So bless Shaykh for having patience as our Prophet saws, he was always telling people to calm down, be easy. She was frustrated she wasn’t disrespectful in her words, she was passionate. It’s ok, relax. May Allah preserve Shaykh Yusuf!

    Beautiful answer sister...i have recently heard a lecture of Nouman ali khan in which he was explaining the incident which has taken palce when hazrat khola came to Rasul Allah SAW about complaining her husband.. At that time she was stressful she raised her voice and puts arguments but when Allah gave revelation Allah did't talk about the women being disrespectful intead he ignores nor even prophet SAW complain and ALLAH and his prophet SAW taught us a lesson there that sometimes its ok if people are stressful if they gets overboard dont get mad relax gave them some margin and have patience indeed you will also be rewarded being patient.. Here if our sister done some mistake we shouldn't be focussing on her behavior rather her condition ..sorry for such long note and for my english.. But after reading your comment i got influenced..

    Yes the woman seems upset and a little emotional but I don't think she was totally disrespectful and she wasn't yelling, just passionate. The sheikh gave a great response and displayed knowledge of our deen to back up his position. I just wish he would have spared her the criticisms, but it's just because I feel bad about the backlash she must have received. Like he says the Qur'an says work together so why not forgive her and understand what she is trying to say? May Allah bless Sheikh Hamza Yusuf and continue to guide him, and the same for the woman and all of us. Ameen.

    Brother Hamza Yusuf has such a wonderful blend of humility and open minded reasoning that is replete with profound scholarly knowledge. Hamza doesn't strike me as one who needs publicity to live Islam and espouse the virtues of Muslim unity that is powerful enough to bring global recognition of ALLAH'S Power, Mercy and Compassion. He and the panel are servants of ALLAH. They struggle to perfect their practice of Islam and hope we will join them. The true leaders of Muslims are The Quran and the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), not uncontrolled emotionalism and egotistical ambitions.

    I love Sheikh Hamza Yusuf, I've been listening to his material for a long time and I really admire many of his views. But I think that he is wrong in using those Hadiths in this situation, I even doubt their authenticity. I don't think it's fair for us Muslims to be constantly seeing our sheikhs trying to apply "political hadiths" from 1400 years ago in our time, it's simply wrong. Saying that "don't curse those in power because God put them over you" is absurd, it doesn't work like that, and one minute later he said "it's a free country, THANK GOD, people can protest their government..." I mean you can either believe that God put them over you and then you go and have patience or do something about it but you can't have both. This idea that it's Qadar to have this corrupt kaliph is what started this whole political/religious mess in the Muslim world from Muawia's day to this minute.

    Honestly, Reda, I think you haven't grasped the level of intellectuality of Hamza Yusuf by rising your inconsistency objection, you are seeing in his discourse. The reality is that we will disagree in such things, but Sheikh Hamza is more concerned about the inward experience of Muslims and their metaphysical worldview which is more and more affected by the positivist/atheistic worldview because if the only what is count is the outworld "good" life then it is not difficult to argue that atheistic hedonism is the only philosophy that makes sense as teleology. His commitment to the tradition is part of his philosophical check upon this inward experience. I am sure he will be glad if you challenge his opinion regarding the authenticity of hadiths or their utility but he only wants you to not compromise on the metaphysical dimension in your thinking process (your ijtihad basically).
