A lot of people get scared, they think, oh, it's like a shahada.
00:00:03.400
You're going to have like this white light coming here,
00:00:06.180
and then there's going to be flowers and something strange is going to happen.
00:00:10.960
Sister, if you take your shahada, all it means is this.
00:00:15.760
There was a door, you've been analysing that door for a long time,
00:00:19.540
you want to go through that door and start your journey.
00:00:22.220
What advice would you give, you're a reaver, me too,
00:00:24.960
and inshallah you're going to be a reaver today as well, yeah?
00:00:32.540
and easily, at the first verses, I was convinced.
00:00:38.560

00:01:05.980
But I have some, not doubts, but questions I have.
00:01:11.800
Before I came to this time, I was the same as you.
00:01:13.940
Like, you know, I was convinced, but there was a few little things.
00:01:18.500
I'm here at your service, inshallah, sister, with anything that I can help with.
00:01:23.120
Um, I know this is incorrect, but I'll just say it.
00:01:27.720
Um, the Prophet Muhammad, peace upon him, his marriage to Aisha.
00:01:33.820
But I still, it doesn't really make sense to me.
00:01:44.980
Say, look, Brother Ali, this is what I don't understand.
00:01:57.340
Now, firstly, what we need to understand is that child, adolescence, yeah, that specific
00:02:05.740
period, it's different from now to back then, yeah?
00:02:10.560
Now, everybody speaks on behalf of Aisha, yeah?
00:02:16.120
Everyone wants to be a hero, like, yeah, we're speaking on behalf of her, yeah?
00:02:19.940
But the question is, these people, they only use that against the Prophet, yeah?
00:02:28.260
I don't believe it's because they genuinely care, oh, Aisha was six.
00:02:32.780
They don't like him and they don't want to use anything against him, yeah?
00:02:35.080
So what are we learning from that is that when people come and attack the Prophet because
00:02:39.420
of that, we say, hold on a second, you're attacking him because you think he's doing
00:02:51.660
Now, at the time of the Prophet, peace be upon him, he had his uncle, Abu Jahan, and Abu Laham,
00:02:58.660
But for some reason, within that time, none of them used this against him.
00:03:04.500
So none of them came and said, hold on a second.
00:03:06.420
You know, they called him like a magician, a suitsayer, a poet, all kind of stuff.
00:03:13.000
But none of them ever, ever attacked him and say, why are you marrying Aisha and six?
00:03:17.500
Because, so number one, the thing that we need to understand is that his enemies, his
00:03:26.560
Now, point number two, we have to look if, let's, tell me someone that is dear to you.
00:03:36.720
If I said to you, your mom, I saw your mom steal something.
00:03:47.200
So what you're doing is, you're going based on testimony of, I know my mom.
00:03:53.440
So what are you basing it on is the Prophet, I mean, your mom's life.
00:03:59.580
How long you've known her, and you're emotionally attached to her.
00:04:04.740
So, besides that, that could be subjective, yeah?
00:04:09.360
However, because you know her, you know what she's like, you know she's not bad, you base
00:04:18.740
Now, if I came and showed you a footage of your mom taking something and walking out the
00:04:28.060
Okay, would you not think to yourself, what excuses would you make for that scenario?
00:04:31.860
If I just showed you the footage, she's walking out with something in her hand, what excuses
00:04:50.700
Because in your head, your mom, you know your mom.
00:05:01.840
This man, yeah, when he was being persecuted, trying to be killed, yeah?
00:05:06.940
And I think Surah Muhammad, it talks about how they were plotting to kill the Prophet, yeah?
00:05:16.260
When he conquered Mecca, he didn't get people killed.
00:05:27.700
So what we do is, we look at his whole life and say, hold on a second.
00:05:33.200
He wouldn't do what you're claiming he would do.
00:05:36.580
Because from what we know, he's not that person.
00:05:39.900
So what that means is your perception of what has become the wrong of today.
00:05:45.340
Now, the Prophet, peace be upon him, he did not want to, he didn't propose to Aisha
00:05:56.780
Aisha, Aisha, Aisha, Aisha was proposed to you before.
00:06:01.500
So, point number one, he was, she was proposed to you before.
00:06:05.660
So if she was proposed to you before, it shows that that was the norm of our society.
00:06:10.380
So now, secondly, the Prophet, peace be upon him, when he proposed, he was married to
00:06:23.100
Now, we look at his life and we say, okay, what do we get from this person?
00:06:27.580
If I'm a 25-year-old man, why would I marry a 40-year-old woman?
00:06:51.320
And he stayed married to her for 15 to 20 years.
00:06:58.800
If the Prophet had those kind of sexual urges and desires, why did he find a need in a society
00:07:07.800
And you could marry two, three, four, as much as you like.
00:07:11.140
He stayed married to one woman for the majority of his life.
00:07:15.520
So we need to question and say, hold on a second.
00:07:20.200
It shows it must have been a genuine person who could have married multiple women, but
00:07:32.700
So that negates and takes the fact out of his feeling wanting to marry a child, yeah?
00:07:46.200
Everyone's saying, oh, yeah, why did this happen?
00:07:49.780
Aisha is one of the biggest female scholars in Islam.
00:08:01.760
And one of the people in Medina who would give fatwa was Aisha.
00:08:06.020
There was Ali Radiran, Umar ibn Qattaf, Ibn Masood, Abdul ibn Abbas, and a few other people.
00:08:18.920
You know, we go to a scholar, like, can I have this?
00:08:22.480
Is it all right for me to have this drink that has 1% alcohol?
00:08:31.200
Aisha, she narrates from the Prophet that they would watch the Abyssinian,
00:08:36.020
tribes dancing, and she would put her cheek on the Prophet's shoulder.
00:08:44.320
So, for example, in her younger age, when they were married,
00:08:52.300
And as she grew a bit more older, they had a race again, yeah?
00:08:56.020
As she went through, Bittin, she really got stronger.
00:09:04.360
You should do some football commentary as well.
00:09:07.100
Anyway, so when they were racing, Bittin's the Prophet won, yeah?
00:09:10.780
And he made a joke and he said, look, you've put on weight.
00:09:12.980
And when he would drink, he would drink, so when they would drink water,
00:09:18.980
he would drink from the exact place that she drank.
00:09:49.560
Go and see white middle-aged men, most, not one of them,
00:12:24.780
the prophet waited three years for her to become an adult.
00:12:30.260
and compare a nine-year-old to 1,400 years ago.
00:19:34.100
you've been analysing that door for a long time,
00:29:30.780
there are people who will want to take advantage of you,
00:29:53.260
and I'm going to get sisters in contact with you,
00:30:21.200
if somebody wants to ask for my daughter's hand,
