To me, is more better not put anyone on pedestal no matter how great their background is. Dr Yasir Qadhi is just like any other human. He can make mistake, he has an his own opinion and his biases, just like any other scholar. I only look the evidence they present and how they interpret it. I judge their opinion after that.

Dr Yasir, may Allah richly bless you and increase you in Imaan, good health and resources to keep doing the good works. You're a blessing to our time.
This was such an intellectually binding and view changing subject! Thank you for this!
Subhaan Allah, such an insightful and detailed explanation of what is arguably a complex topic. Alhamdulillah for scholars such as YQ who - as well as being highly knowledgable - are great public speakers and gifted with the skills to educate the masses with clarity.
Our brother,Shaykh Dr Yasir Qadhi is a gift from Allah s w t for all of the Muslim ummah.One of the most brilliant Islamic scholar,in the world.
Ma sha allah awesome information Gazak allah khir
Jazakallh hayır ustath, our first and foremost duty and obligation is to pass our faith to our next generations.
MashaAllah! What An ever needed lecture in this our present time. Without no doubt Dr. Yasir is an exceptional scholar in this our Ummah. He is one my favourite scholars if not the favourite😊. It's only one who has a disease in his heart and who is not open minded to reality will hate him out of no good course. But like all scholars he is a human and so prone to mistakes. As followers or listeners it's an ever good act to express our gratitude to him for his tremendous efforts in teaching us our deen but we should not do so to an extent of putting him on a level that will make him questioned by Allah in hereafter or in a manner in which we look down on other scholars that we are also blessed with in this Ummah. Rather, we should be thankful to Allah for them and pray to Allah to accept their efforts, continue to increase them in guidance, knowledge and wisdom with ourselves included in that prayer. May Allah bless him for his efforts and continue to guide and protect him. Aameen.
Even before the program start I need to click 👍💖💯

The 3 steps of Preventative / Spiritual / Rational .. is very Ghazalian aswell in his Book 2 Qawaid al Aqaid , when he talks about imparting religious instruction gradually... The use of Rational Arguments is supposed to be medicinal as he mentions.. the child if he is properly nurtured he is in no need of the arguments of the mutakalimeen.
This is why a lot of who had watched zakir naik video that challenging christian or any religion with logical explanation and evidence from their own holly book still there are many stay in their believe and faith. Because not all people could triggered their fitra using logical evidences rather some fitra could come from simple things like a smile or good akhlaq towards other people in society.
Assalaamualaikum wrt Can anyone help me get Ibn Taymiyyah book "FITRAH " pleaseeeeee help me !!!
❤️
Can you link to the nasheed!
The more a person is knowlegeable in sciences...the nearer for him to recognise the existence of God...shouldn't be the other way round...

In my experience, people's rejection of God seems to always be based in emotion at some level, even if they try to use some kind of logic to rationalize it. They feel sleighted or saddened by the state of the world and don't want to accept that God would allow that. Their fault, in my opinion, is that they cannot think beyond the world, and the universe, and understand that this life is temporary and not what we should strive for.

Shaykh please do a video on your visit to Pakistan and on the Al Qadir university. Perhaps do an interview for one of your podcasts with PM Imran Khan like Sh Hamza Yusuf did recently. Jzk
Very poor videography! The presentation on the screen has hardly been shown. Seems like this issue is reducing the rich content of this interesting lecture.
This is so juicy, 5 seconds in.
May Allah bless Dr. Qadhi for his talk. However, when using polls and statistics, it must be kept in mind the demographic and number of people that is being surveyed. Extrapolations from a survey of a small number people from specific demographics give false positive conclusions.

subhanAllah. I love the concept of Fitrah as it solves so many epistemological problems the modem Western philosophy faces. ❤️ also the analog of fitrah being the center of our soul like mind is for our body is just beautiful.
salaam i would just like to comment that rather than "Deism" being the growing trend it's the "Spiritual but not religious" category. This category deals in areas such as "Perennial Philosophy" of Huxley, new age thesosphical movements, psychedelia, meditation, yoga, kundalini etc.. It's all rehashed paganism. Unfortunately they all have certain principles which are common to all of them but not a single creed, i think the daees need should focus on this area of concern.

That guy read a lot of stuff from the christian camp (mtd, benedikt option)
Honestly, the fitra argument is very weak. Some of the favorite arguments of islamophobes are those of fitra about things that we have to defend to the detriment of dawah. Or something more innocuous such as petting and loving dogs - everyone outside of Islam will tell you that they naturally feel sympathy for dogs, but we are taught contrary to that. So I don't believe it's something we can appeal to, and I would agree that the fitra is different from Islam, and that a person doesn't apostatize during childhood if they were born to a non-muslim family. We don't know what the fitra is exactly to compare it to the principles of Islam, we just know it exists. All convictions come from the outside and go inward. Feelings are flimsier than reason, despite what Ibn Taymiyyah may have believed, otherwise God would have appealed to our emotions more than our reason. And the appeals to emotions He made were still based on justice, which is based in reason - it's unavoidable.

@@tzimisce1753 let's take pigs as an example for what you're saying. People say pigs are very intelligent and kids tend to find piglets adorable. You can't eat pig meat in Islam and you probably can't own a pig either. But they're cute animals, it doesn't mean we have to kill them when we see them. You can have compassion for pigs as a Muslim, you just can't eat or own them. That doesn't negate the Fitrah.

@@yourenviousenemy That's a cope. That's like saying "it's not haram to have alcohol, as long as you don't drink it" - people don't buy alcohol to have it sitting around, they buy it to drink it, they have soap for cleaning and don't need alcohol sitting around. People want dogs because they're cute, not for hunting, nobody needs dogs for hunting. Children aren't naturally born with those rules, they love to have dogs inside and don't mind dogs licking them. Muslims squeal in fear and flee at the sight of dogs or dogs touching them. This is a learned behavior, it's not natural. There are lots of other examples: women aren't born thinking that it's okay to share a husband but that the husband doesn't have to share wives. People aren't born thinking that they have to pray 5 times per day specifically, people aren't born thinking that mahr needs to be given to marry someone, people aren't born thinking that it's haram to shave the beard but okay to trim the moustache, nor that women need to cover their hair, nor eat with their right hand, nor that "it's better to get a metal rod through your head than to touch someone of the opposite gender" - the fitrah has so many things that are against Islam. It's an Athari cope to equivocate the fitrah with Islam, because Ahmad Ibn Hanbal and Ibn Taymiyyah backed you into a corner, and now you are forced to pretend that the most unnatural of commandments are "completely natural and spontaneous, and isolated children in a jungle would invent them themselves if they were left alone". There are people like that, isolated from everyone, and they don't have these rules. They have the exact same fitrah as everyone else.
Sheikh Yasir, with all due respect, up until now, this is the most theoretical and nonsensical lecture you have ever made. Those who are learned know that your assertions have not textual basis. You have created a theory based on Ibn Taymiyyah's ideas. Most of the things you mention as "recognising by the fitra" is arguably recognized by the aql. Most of your assertions on "nourishing the fitra" is arguably related to tazkiyyat al-nafs. You are clearly demonstrating your bias against the traditional scholarship of the Asharis and the Maturudis. Your idea that the notion of fitra as advanced by Ibn Taymiyyah is in no way superior to "other" classical scholars' arguments based on aql. Good try but, in this juncture, I must politely ask you to rid yourself off your bias against the "majority" and tred lightly on proposing nonsense like this as if they have any textual basis. Your whole lecture has no textual basis, but philosophical/rational arguments ;) which seem to contradict your own assertions. The Quran does not support your ideas on the superiority of an ambiguous notion of the fitrah. Quran supports using the aql and tazkiyyat al-nafs and not some fantastic and exaggerated notion of the fitrah as you hypothesise. Yes, we believe can believe in the fitrah as some sort of innate knowledge of tawhid, but that is it ya Sheikh, rest of it is sorry to say - speculation - which reason would disagree with. Your expansion of the notion of the fitrah seems to have utilised the functions of aql and nafs with huda of Allah unsuccessfully because there is no basis from the naql.
