Ali Dawah - SALAF VS THE SALAFI - FOLLOW SALAF NOT THE SALAFI

00:00:00.000 you know people they waste their time backbiting all they're doing all day all

00:00:04.640 long is this guy's a muktadi, this guy's a muktadi, this guy's an innovator, this guy's

00:00:09.440 misguided, this guy's a donkey, this guy's a jahid, this guy's an elephant, this guy's a giraffe

00:00:15.600 it turns the whole place into a zoo and this is the reason why we need to understand the reason

00:00:19.280 i'm giving a jump to the seller is you look at the way they live their life you're talking you're

00:00:25.360 saying i'm a seller, i can no longer be your life black and blue, you come outside from before and

00:00:30.640 yet i'm a seller, that's why i say don't want to follow the seller, not the seller

00:00:38.800 beautiful match, as you can see you see this bag here yeah but you see you see how righteous i am

00:00:45.680 look what's in the bag yeah you see there's books in the bag i bought myself a new shirt today i was

00:00:52.560 coming here i was wearing this yeah and this looks a bit old yeah so alhamdulillah i thought i'll

00:00:58.720 treat myself i've been working doing long hours yesterday till six in the morning um so i thought

00:01:04.000 i'll get myself something i'll treat myself and i'm gonna come back to this you know we'll be talking

00:01:09.520 about clothing insha'Allah but what i want to do today is it's a little bit controversial a little bit

00:01:15.360 um and it goes by the the name of follow the seller not the salafi yeah follow the seller not the

00:01:27.040 salafi so now how many of you guys are salafis here no salafis yeah no problem now the reason i'm

00:01:36.720 mentioning this is very important because the thing is there's like a there's like a trend going on you

00:01:41.360 you know yeah you know i'm a salafi you know are you are you you know this thing that it's coming from

00:01:48.000 the youngsters yeah and this is the reason why i really wanted to address this issue and i really

00:01:52.400 wanted it to be recorded because um when you're young when you come to the religion i see a pattern

00:01:57.840 i see a pattern in people who come to the religion and they get excited you know and they study and

00:02:03.760 they think they know everything uh but as they study they realize that they don't even know much

00:02:14.880 he was known for two things he was known for his love for the sunnah and his love for the

00:02:20.080 poor and the way the salaf worked the way they fought was profound it was amazing you know because

00:02:28.480 most of the time that i use this when i'm doing like for example live appeals i use the example

00:02:33.760 a lot of us if i came and said to you guys i have an investment here yeah um there's this you know

00:02:38.080 you know you know you get these guys in suits and these big watches and these cars they don't even own

00:02:41.440 none of them yeah yeah you know invest and you make this much money and you put it here blah blah

00:02:46.000 everybody gets excited yeah yeah let me let me invest you know the thing with hamdollah

00:02:51.760 umar is that the way he was thinking wasn't five years ahead two years ahead yeah let me do an

00:02:56.640 investment two years ahead five years ago no he was thinking thousand years ahead yeah has anybody

00:03:01.840 done an investment thousand years ahead we have done it personally yeah not to brag you guys have any of

00:03:13.040 you guys ever given charity yeah we have done so you've done an investment for a thousand years ahead

00:03:19.760 million years ahead why because you invested in your hair after for the soul yeah you've invested

00:03:26.480 because you when you go and shower the day in general you want to reap the rewards so you have invested

00:03:31.920 you've invested not in this life not 20 years 30 years 40 years ahead you behave like a

00:03:39.920 future thousand years million years because that's the time we're going to live in

00:03:43.600 when a baby came to his door and knocked and he went up to him and he gave him what he had

00:03:48.720 yeah from what i know it was two dinars or something along those lines he gave him two dinars

00:03:54.560 the beggar went then came another beggar now if you gave somebody two dinars and they went away and

00:04:02.560 then another beggar came what would you do me personally i would think to myself look here i did a massive

00:04:07.440 good deed i'm super righteous and i'll take the second beggar sorry i've got nothing for you yeah what would you do

00:04:13.440 personally if you do the same yeah but look at the way the seller did look look at the way i've got

00:04:19.280 it on the mark look at he went to the first beggar he ran to the first beggar and he said i've given you

00:04:25.920 two dinars borrow me back the one dinar i'll give you back and he took that one dinar and gave it to the second beggar

00:04:33.040 would any would any of us think in a million years to do that we wouldn't but what's different about

00:04:38.000 the seller because the way they think the way they operate is because they have certainty in the

00:04:42.640 hereafter they believe in it and that's how they operated everything in their life was based around

00:04:48.320 that how can i get drunk how can i what can i do everything was based around that that's when you

00:04:53.040 would see that he thinks to himself automatically i'll go to the first beggar i'll get another dinner

00:04:57.840 but give it to the uh the second one and pay back the first one do you see how that's that's profound

00:05:04.720 i find that profound it's amazing then let's go to abdul ibn abbas um no abdul ibn abbas

00:05:15.840 he was in the car for uh and he was sitting there and then he saw a man coming to the masjid

00:05:21.600 and he saw the man is distressed he's upset he's he's not he looks really distressed so he went to

00:05:26.720 him and said what's wrong why are you so stressful he said i owe a man some money and he's giving me a

00:05:33.440 hard time so he said look if i had the money i wouldn't pay for it myself but i'll come with you

00:05:40.160 and i'll try to get the guy to give you some more time yeah so as he's walking off once i was talking

00:05:47.600 he said where are you going to get the car you can't leave the masjid and he said look i heard the

00:05:51.600 was saying that anyone who helps his brothers to start in the hardship it's as if he's done it

00:05:56.240 to come for 10 years yeah for 10 years so and we know many other examples from all companions

00:06:05.120 who are umar al-qadda we're going for justice yeah a very just man khalib al-wadi no one to be a warrior

00:06:10.640 yeah every single one of the salaf they played a role be the female companions or male companions yeah

00:06:15.920 the reason i'm calling this follow the seller and not the salafin is because everybody is

00:06:23.520 going to stand i'm a salafin okay this guy comes he says okay this is binar this is uh this is haram

00:06:28.160 no problem another guy comes okay he goes to the first salafin okay you're not a salafin he goes

00:06:32.160 no no you you're not a salafin yeah now they're fighting with each other no you're not a salafin

00:06:36.400 because look my you know my travels with uh my um focus above my uncle i wear night training with

00:06:42.880 socks etc etc they're just arguing with one another we've made the religion so superficial

00:06:50.640 so superficial that it's become like like like like like a you know you know you can like yeah

00:06:57.280 you know my name is there you know etc wallahi this even happens with marriage yeah the religion

00:07:04.560 has become so superficial yeah i mean you guys are waiting for a marriage documentary yeah how many

00:07:09.440 people are waiting for a marriage documentary yeah yeah inshallah coming back soon

00:07:16.240 that's the reason why brothers and sisters in the marriage for example a lot of people fall for

00:07:22.720 bravo i thought he was an imam he was wearing a phone he had a long beard he had miswa in his hand

00:07:29.520 and these are beautiful things don't get it twisted these are beautiful things

00:07:33.360 but what it isn't we've made the religion so superficial that a sister's niqab yeah how long

00:07:40.000 her niqab is how many layers she's got on etc we just fall for the apparent like okay that's it

00:07:47.920 and personally when i'm looking to get married i make the same mistake and when i make mistakes

00:07:52.880 i'll make it very clear a sister wearing the niqab is a beautiful thing it's an amazing thing a brother's

00:07:58.000 wearing the beard the folk trying to follow the sunnah that's a beautiful thing the point here is

00:08:03.680 this is that we have been so superficial that we deem somebody to be knowledgeable if he has a

00:08:11.280 thought if he has a topic if he has books behind him and he says yani bida shirk uh um um tawhid um music

00:08:18.960 of food yani bida shirk uh um yeah this person is knowledgeable who brought the religion to such

00:08:23.520 a low level it talks so far or says a few words we think yeah this person is knowledgeable and this

00:08:29.120 is the reason why we need to understand the reason i'm giving an example to the seller is you look at

00:08:34.560 the way they live their life you're talking you're saying i'm a seller if you're acting you're racist

00:08:38.960 you're racist you're racist you don't like black people you don't like you're the same person

00:08:43.120 yeah okay good brother you are the same person you will never let your daughter marry a black guy

00:08:50.080 you will never let him marry a black guy you're the same person you you go and yes and don't let me

00:08:55.760 say again it's important for us to clarify the matters yeah when it comes to innovation etc i'm not

00:09:02.080 belittling them i'm seeing priorities yeah you go home and swear at your mom and then you think i

00:09:07.600 don't know how to be that i was yeah i've done a few years ago what are you talking about seriously you

00:09:12.480 insult your mom at home you go home and beat your wife black and blue you come outside you're before

00:09:18.720 and yet i'm a salaf that's why i say wrong with the sisters follow the salaf not the salaf that's the

00:09:24.880 reason why i specifically want to talk about this because we need to understand look at some of the salaf

00:09:29.680 they would spend nights praying yeah their connection with their lord was strong but with

00:09:36.240 so superficially i'll wear a phone i have a book you know i'll have this book i walk around with

00:09:42.080 this book under my like this yeah is this thing really is this is this what you've made a religion

00:09:50.640 you know and you have a sister you have a brother praying salah he is he's not he's looking at what

00:09:56.160 the other guy's doing oh let me see what he's doing brother you're in salaam but no to him no no no he's

00:10:03.760 doing this he's not doing it how's he moving his arms when he goes to rapport his back straight

00:10:11.280 do you see how the shaitan gets at you the shaitan attacks your ship if you can't get your ship

00:10:17.200 people to bidder if not bidder major sins if not major sins minus it if not minus it you will get

00:10:21.520 you to do things that are halal but timeless then or you'll get you to do the lesser of two goods

00:10:27.040 this is the shaitan shaitan is your enemy he's attacking you and what i'm saying is priority

00:10:32.880 yeah priority your priority is that you worship not under allah you pray salam you pain zakat you

00:10:40.560 fast and ramadan yes you go to hand your fear as a means to you abstain from major sins yeah build

00:10:47.040 your connection with your lord don't jump on this hype thing yeah it's what's going on yeah you have

00:10:52.720 little kids what my little kids you've got 12 15 16 year olds some 18 year old do you interfere

00:10:58.400 calling random Muslims a Catholic like this happening is like yeah you're a Catholic like just do you

00:11:04.160 understand the magnitude of what you're saying oh this person is the innovator oh what do you mean by that

00:11:09.200 oh one of the seven districts are going to go to the fire you know it's come to the point where brothers

00:11:15.120 the reason i'm mentioning this is because you at this age or 19 20 22 23 24 no problem you need to

00:11:23.440 concentrate on developing yourself do not concern yourself with this group that group etc make it

00:11:30.480 clear follow the quran is from under the word yeah attach yourself to that but don't get caught up and

00:11:37.600 you're going to waste your time you know people they waste their time backbiting all they're doing

00:11:42.560 all day all long is this guy's a muktadi this guy's a muktadi this guy's an innovator this guy's misguided

00:11:48.880 this guy's a donkey donkey this guy's a dragon this guy's an elephant this guy's a giraffe he turns the whole

00:11:54.800 place into a zoo yeah he's a gorilla he's like what am i here he's turning into a zoo he's like he's going to a zoo

00:12:02.000 and he's he's wasting his time you're looking even in ramadan you're looking brother ramadan is

00:12:06.880 the time to get crossed out of the time he's doing what is it we're doing uh writing here

00:12:11.280 why are you writing here for his hands are here the the umma the youngsters don't know allah they're

00:12:17.840 committing sinner you are concentrating well why is your hand here what is wrong with you do you see

00:12:23.920 how shaitan tricks you and makes you busy with these things and then you get caught up in the moment and

00:12:29.040 jump on the bandwagon and you waste your time what you need to do as a youngster is stay away

00:12:36.320 look knowledge me personally i see this very clearly if you see me talking about matters that i should

00:12:43.520 be talking about unsubscribe and block simple as unsubscribe and block why because if i'm going to come

00:12:50.720 and talk about this what's what's the point of people of knowledge what's the point of the people of

00:12:54.880 knowledge if i if one brother came and said to me oh yeah but you know the scholars are not talking

00:13:00.800 about this or someone should i go subhanallah i said the scholars are not talking you want to

00:13:11.760 i said if the scholars are not talking it means you should shut up scholars not talking is aside for you

00:13:18.160 as an imam you as an imam go go work with your own shoe yeah do you probably miss some parts yeah

00:13:25.040 sometimes people get obsessed in the bar for two hours but go the scholars are not talking

00:13:30.560 look at you once oh you think you're abdullab in a past yeah you get gas you know yeah abdullab coming with

00:13:36.480 this obvious yeah but you know imam bukhari they're like oh subhanallah you and imam bukhari now you're

00:13:41.520 example is imam bukhari from a community imam bukhari is telling no you can't so what examples are you giving

00:13:49.920 so my advice to you guys is very important follow the salah not the salafi yeah i'm making it very

00:13:57.520 clearly and categorically yeah we handle in love we follow yeah we try our best to yeah but do not see

00:14:06.160 superficial superficial and it comes back to the shirt yeah why because i'm in the dawah how am i

00:14:13.680 why am i dressed up like this yeah why am i not wearing my phone where is my topic again it's a

00:14:20.080 beautiful thing and believe me there's reasons personal to me that i can't wear a phone i'd love to

00:14:24.240 wear a phone i have the phone and the phone is the most comfortable thing ever yeah personally because of

00:14:29.360 my family etc i don't wear it but there's other reasons as well for the dawah the reason i dress up

00:14:34.000 that's why because i want to relate with you yeah when you look at him you're like look at brother

00:14:36.640 ali he's got a slug on yes and the man's falling deep yeah he's got a slug on you know you see how

00:14:40.640 he's dressing up yeah but the thing is it's just that connection with the young people you get it

00:14:44.480 i believe this will stick on the bar do you get what i'm trying to say but it all comes back to this

00:14:48.640 do you not make the religion superficial do you not look at somebody and oh look at this person look at

00:14:53.120 yeah look at how he's dressed yeah obviously as long as it's not around yeah but don't dress him

00:14:58.480 oh look at this guy he's got adidas yeah you don't talk to yeah you need to wake up somebody i'm joking

00:15:03.520 adidas i don't like that person yeah you can't be looking at oh look at this guy you're not good

00:15:07.600 about what's he going to know about the religion no no what are you talking about don't make the

00:15:11.120 religion superficial you know don't look at hijab and he's jacking a finger that this guy doesn't know

00:15:15.280 nothing yeah he might not but the issue is don't judge people based on their feelings because then what you do

00:15:23.680 is yeah you really text him subhanallah yeah i'm joking i'm joking that's literally so

00:15:32.240 inshallah the religion is more bigger than that problem system inshallah work on your um building

00:15:38.880 yourself to get across allah and go study inshallah respect your teachers etc they've even been here

00:15:46.720 when we have people of marriage that the imam etc are still in Paris we're not just our number but we

00:15:52.080 need to always respect the people of college always that's what we've been whenever before i

00:15:56.320 don't talk about stuff that i don't know if i don't know i go to my teacher sure yeah this is the

00:16:01.440 question exceptional why you have to wonder these people yeah these people have given their nine

00:16:05.680 years ten years twenty years just because you're on youtube and you're studying if you think you come

00:16:09.840 here and stuff no it shouldn't be like that if that's me i'm taking you know that was my general reminder

00:16:15.120 notion element this is the fear modes and so i want to show you i didn't want to hell a bitЗ
