Sajid apparently has missed all those statements,
00:00:02.860
so hopefully he will take note of what I'm saying in this video
00:00:04.900
so that he can stop misrepresenting me in the future.
00:00:11.120
helped to feed those who are in poor conditions
00:00:13.000
and who don't even have the clothing to keep themselves warm.
00:00:17.240
but it can change their life and help them survive the winter this year.
00:00:23.040
The Madhalis say, do not rebel against the ruler.
00:00:26.120
Muslim Skeptic says, do not rebel against the ruler.
00:00:31.000
Muslim Skeptic says, you should obey the ruler.
00:00:35.660
Muslim Skeptic says, yes, advise the ruler in private if possible.
00:00:40.540
then it's permissible to do it publicly in order to serve the greater good.
00:00:43.580
That's the only difference that is causing these Madhalis to denounce us as deviants
00:00:47.040
and declare that we are khawarij, dogs of hellfire,
00:00:50.520
And that is really what it means to be a bootlicker.
00:00:53.620
That is what I am referring to when I use the term bootlicker.
00:00:58.080
don't do khuruj, or don't do takfir, or don't disobey the ruler.
00:01:03.920
Because all of those positions are represented in the scholarly tradition.
00:01:11.280
wa nahi ani al-munkar against the ruler publicly.
00:01:14.620
Shut your mouth no matter what kind of evil and kufr and dhulm the ruler does.
00:01:21.280
And there is no one from the Salaf who share your deviated view.
00:01:24.460
Yes, there were Salaf who remained silent in the face of the munkar of the ruler,
00:01:27.900
and other Salaf who loudly and openly denounced the ruler for that munkar.
00:01:32.320
But the first group never told the second group to shut up.
00:01:38.480
When we look at the Quran, the Sunnah, the statements of the Salaf,
00:01:41.740
and the Fatawa of the senior ulama, past and present,
00:01:44.000
there is so much evidence that agrees with our position
00:01:46.780
and contradicts the view of the Madhalis and bootlickers.
00:01:49.720
Now, there's one other loose end that we should address.
00:01:56.360
In his video, Sajid implies that I have made blanket takfir against rulers.
00:02:00.280
As proof of this, he takes two separate statements I have made in separate contexts,
00:02:04.440
and he brings these statements together as proof that I'm doing blanket takfir
00:02:09.600
The first statement I have made is that no Muslim country today fully applies sharia.
00:02:14.280
The second statement is that not ruling by the sharia makes one a kafir.
00:02:17.980
Sajid combines these two statements to claim that I am making blanket takfir on all rulers today.
00:02:24.360
I made each of these statements in a particular context,
00:02:26.940
and I have never made the blanket takfir that Sajid is accusing me of making.
00:02:30.760
As for the statement that no country applies sharia 100%,
00:02:33.420
that's obviously true, and I dare Sajid to deny it.
00:02:36.540
Sadly, Muslim countries have been ravished by colonialism and military pressure applied by Western states.
00:02:41.500
For that reason, such societies do not and are not permitted to apply the full range of sharia rules.
00:02:45.800
This does not mean that they do not apply some sharia rules or teachings,
00:02:49.180
or that their population and their rulers have categorically rejected the sharia.
00:02:52.780
In stating that no Muslim land applies the full range of sharia,
00:02:55.740
I am simply stating a universally recognized fact.
00:02:58.740
As for the statement that not applying the sharia makes one a kafir,
00:03:03.520
وَمَا لَمْ يَحْكُم بِمَا أَنزَلَ اللَّهِ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ
00:03:06.700
Whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed,
00:03:11.300
Now, this is a clear-cut verse that no Muslim can deny.
00:03:14.400
But of course, that doesn't mean we can apply this verse willy-nilly.
00:03:17.600
Rather, applying this verse has many important nuances
00:03:20.200
that an unqualified person like me is not in a position to exercise.
00:03:24.140
But my point is, I have never claimed that whoever does not rule 100% by the sharia
00:03:31.620
there are complex contextual factors to take into account,
00:03:34.640
which is why I have said explicitly, on many occasions,
00:03:41.320
okay, this ruler is a kafir, this ruler is a kafir.
00:03:45.100
The other side is going to have a problem with that as well.
00:03:50.520
So there's no reason for us to go to that extent.
00:03:54.060
that if you're going to abolish the sharia of Allah,
00:03:59.640
that are literally taking Muslims out of Islam step by step
00:04:11.620
because you're not going in specifically saying,
00:04:13.000
this is a kafir, this is a kafir, this is a kafir.
00:04:15.720
that's just my understanding in a quick nutshell,
00:04:19.440
Sajid apparently has missed all those statements.
00:04:21.740
So hopefully he will take note of what I'm saying in this video
00:04:24.000
so that he can stop misrepresenting me in the future.
00:04:49.500
then I have some questions that I insist that you address.
00:04:54.980
First, if criticism of rulers leads to bloodshed,
00:05:06.320
Number two, if you're so concerned about bloodshed,
00:05:11.680
and CVE policies that are applied in Muslim countries?
00:05:17.040
have been used to kill and imprison countless Muslims
00:05:21.480
on the basis that those Muslims are dangerous khadijis
00:05:24.040
who should be considered terrorists and extremists.
00:05:28.380
Third, there are around 50 or so Muslim countries
00:05:36.900
when these countries often disagree with each other
00:05:40.360
are engaged in criticizing other rulers of other countries?
00:05:43.380
How should we decide which rulers should be obeyed
00:05:57.940
does that count as khuruj and inciting rebellion?
00:06:00.320
Number five, imagine there is a Muslim ruler who says,
00:06:03.760
but I'm going to force every Muslim in my country
