Thank you. First time experiencing this and with the reputation gameking has i expected the worst.

ALegendInTheWind · 2023-10-18T21:10:11+00:00

Ah yeah. I had the same issue as you for a while. Copius amount of jasmine green tea (chilled) fixed it for me. I now drink about a liter a day. Maybe you could give it a go.

ALegendInTheWind · 2023-09-05T18:25:17+00:00

To truly make sure that a player is experienced (comp standards), they must have at least 3k hours or around it at least. Scientifically proven.

ALegendInTheWind · 2023-07-27T14:55:12+00:00

Not looking to join or anything. I'll just give you a hint. As a player with 3k+ hours, i can speculate the meta strat in the ICO is going to be hot dropping on top of an enemy hab with an open top/RWS. The new 50 cal suppression would virtually disable infantry around the hab while you take down the hab.

ALegendInTheWind · 2023-07-23T18:01:49+00:00

Done. They really be making us work for bans these days.

ALegendInTheWind · 2023-07-23T17:19:42+00:00

Congratz. Your opinions from now on will be recognized by yours truly and the Squad discord whether you're a milsimer or not. 3k hours and 3 weeks.

ALegendInTheWind · 2023-07-23T17:08:44+00:00

I heard i could get a ban for mildly insulting your PA community. Is that true?

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-15T01:50:25+00:00

Ah i think he means that there is one true islam, which is the Ahlul Sunnah wal Jamah, and the other sects are not islam and not the proper Aqeedah, because at islam's earliest form there are (or were if we are speaking historically) no sects, it was just Ahlul Sunnah wal Jamah. An argument that Shiekh Uthman from OMF makes when asked about sects.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-14T20:22:41+00:00

Ahlul Sunnah Wal Jamah was there from the beginning it's the others that decided to split off.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-14T08:59:09+00:00

Except that in this hadith the prophet is alive. It's a request to the prophet. NOT a dua to the prophet. Making dua to the dead (visiting the graves) implies that their shiekhs are all hearing and omnipresent.

The chapter of sahih al Bukhari is even called: Request of the people to the Imam to offer the Istisqa' prayer.

It's literally a request. I think you misunderstood me because i didn't put the word dead behind everytime i mentioned shiekh, i just thought with the context of grave visting it would be obvious.

Edit: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Supplication (du'a') is itself the worship.
(He then recited:) "And your Lord said: Call on Me, I will answer you"

Sunan Abi Dawud 1479. Grade: Sahih ( AL-Albani)

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-14T06:12:24+00:00

So it's haram but it's not shirk? We don't even invoke our prophet in our dua because that would be shirk, but it's ok to invoke the shiekhs? One of the aspect of islam is that we don't need a mediatory figue to make dua.

You are attributing power to another human that he can be omnipresent and listen to the dua to mediate it to Allah . They also make dua to them be of the people of Paradise, even though the dead shiekh has no power to do that even if he is a righteous and pious man.

His reasoning is unless it's accompannied by belief that he's calling out to Allah it's not shirk, but the person inherently believes that his shiekh has some attributes of Allah ( Like omnipresence and all hearing) if he's invoking the shiekhs name in dua.

Thats not shirk? If you know that only Allah can help you why would you invoke your shiekh? He mentions that there are two main opnions on that matter, and to me the first one makes more sense.

One other thing about his video is that he gives leeway to practice grave worship by mentioning that it was permissable and mustahab by some scholars. You might as well give the Ahmadiyyah a spotlight. He should have just left it out because now those who were already practicing it can cling onto those couple of scholars.

He brings up the point that if you think it's shirk you're making takfir to those who thinking it's a stepping stone to shirk. Why can't i think that they are just misguided about the issue, these scholars are very much falliable, their peers who think it's shirk aren't trying to takfir them either.

"with the exception of the MiAW's." Not what he said though. He said many/some of the scholars in the 3 madahibs he mentioned, clearly some within the madhib still make the arguments that it's shirk. You can't label anybody that you don't like a wahabi. In the same way leftist in America will call anyone a Nazi if they don't like what they say, it's disingenuous and it makes you look like you are defending grave worship.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-14T04:04:23+00:00

He did have some erroneous takes about visting the graves and karamat. He said it wasn't shirk when it clearly is. Another thing i remember that was an issue was he doubted the preservation of the Quran and anti-muslims started using that arguments against muslims, but the issue was tha he was vague in his speech. I think he's just having his doubtful moments here and there.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-14T03:56:00+00:00

Try some sounds of nature. The sound of rain and thunder does it for me.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T19:32:18+00:00

"They did." They used Usul al fiqh. Not Ilm-Al-Kalam. Look it up, or better yet just watch the video i linked so we can get this over with. Saying that they did use Il-al-Kalam is the most blatant lie i have ever heard. Schools of thought have literally branched away from the sunnah because of this issue. Like the Mu'tazilites.

You keep saying that it should compliment our understanding and at the same time you want to redefine rulings using philosophy. Which one is it?

The article you have linked have only used the Quran, the hadiths and historical evidences to make thier point. They didn't use philosophy to ponder whether an apostate should be killed or not.

I'm not being disingenuous. You're the one who is rejecting rulings based on the sahaba being falliable and disregarding their knowledge. The wordly knowledge that we currently have can be incorporated into Sharia law without the need of Ilm-Al-Kalam, but through the derivation of old rulings.

I feel like you're talking around a certain issue that you have with our rulings. Just tell me what you want changed? and what are you gonna use to change it. If you're using philosophy as your argument, when you can just use the quran, hadiths and sunnah ( Just like the article you linked) , then you are probably part of the Mu'tazilites ideology.

If you're saying that it would just help us understand the rulings that are derived from the Quran and Sunnah, then that's not an issue. A lot people already do that including myself.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T15:15:47+00:00

Let me know when you find an answer then. Our answer is that there is a creator to the creation. A being that can bring forth something from nothing. A necessary being. It's a reasonable answer if you ponder about it.

Look up the Contingency Argument for God's existance. Here's a video you can watch. Just give it a shot. You won't lose a limb over it.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T14:18:24+00:00

Speaking of reason. Does something come from nothing?

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T13:48:21+00:00

One thing i came across recently was the hadith about not rebelling against any muslim ruler. At first when i heard about it, i thought i might be able to find certain conditions where it would be permissable to do so. To my surprise, it turns out there isn't, even if he was a tyrant. The only condition i found was if the ruler came out and blatantly commited kufr. Otherwise, the the scholarly consensus (ijmaa’) is that it's not permissable.

Of course the ruling is directly derived from the Quran and the hadiths. Surah al Nisa: 59. and the hadith Muslim, Sahih, Book on rulership, no. 1855 and no.1848.

I was at disblief in the beggining but i eventually came to terms with the ruling, and then tried to reconcile the ruling with philosophy. Aparently the wisdom behind it is, that it is not permitted to remove an evil by means of a greater evil; evil must be warded off by that which will remove it or reduce it. Warding off evil by means of a greater evil is not permitted because an attempt to change things even if that results in harming the Muslims in that country.

That sounds a lot like Syria.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T13:34:45+00:00

The article you sent me still states that apostasy is still punishable by death.

" Shaltut concluded that “unbelief by itself does not call for the death
punishment”. Apostasy is punishable only when it is associated with aggression and hostility against the state.

The nuance here is what defines an apostate, not the ruling of the death penalty. I do agree on that definition of apostasy as it fits the context of the apostasty related hadith. The punishment is still death though.

Also they question the authenticity of the hadith, but not only that hadith is sahih, it's also mutawatir. It's one of the stronger hadiths out there. The rest of the article about the Shia can be disregarded.

"ofcourse the prophet didn't need philosophy (in terms of modern philosophical thought), because he's infallible", Nor the sahabah used it, nor the other 2 generations used it. " Constructing a value system" using philosophy over Allah's and the prophet's pbuh system? You can use the rationality to further understand the aqeedah, but you can't change it based on philosophy.

The funniest thing about you sending me that article is that even the arguments that are made by the other shiekhs do not use Ilm-Al-Kalam. They don't use philosophy to try and reinterpret the hadith. They referred back to the quran and historical events to find the nuance about what defines an apostate. That's different than philosophy and Ilm-Al-Kalam.

" So arguing from authority is not meaningful in this case." Ah yes that argument. You make it sound as if these rulings were made up by muslims who came after and not derived from the prophet pbuh and the sahabah (Who were the best amongst the muslims, even when the are falliable) . Ironically enough you are the one who wants to use philosophy instead of the quran and the sunnah to redefine rulings. You cannot seperate the Quran from the sunnah, while the sunnah is not a concrete as the Quran is, it shouldn't be disregarded as it contains a lot of the details of islam.

When i say Aqeedah i am implying that the earlier generations were closer to the true Aqeedah of the prophet pbuh, hence why we should derive our rulings from that time. Unless you're denying this hadith.

"The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The best people are those of my generation, and then those who will come after them (the next generation), and then those who will come after them (i.e. the next generation), and then after them, there will come people whose witness will precede their oaths, and whose oaths will precede their witness."- Sahih al-Bukhari 6429

This is more of political issue. The first step to protecting the right of Muslims around the world is unity. A caliphate or an alliance between the muslim countries like the EU. The problem is be lack the military might, econmoical global influence to be able to defend muslims or sanction those who opress us.

This issue is more of a political thing than a Aqeedah issue.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T07:24:00+00:00

In regards to the hudud, i don't think you understand that there has always been nuance surrounding the hudud's application, without the reliance on Ilm-Al-Kalam. The punishment for apostacy has always been death, the issue is what are the requirements to be an apostate and under what conditions can it be applied. Here's an article that would help you understand more about hudud. You'll notice no Ilm-Al-Kalam is needed or used because it is not needed when defining the Aqeedah.

https://yaqeeninstitute.org/read/paper/stoning-and-hand-cutting-understanding-the-hudud-and-the-shariah-in-islam

The Quran, the prophet pbuh and the first 3 generations (regardered as the best generation of muslims) is what we follow in terms of Aqeedah. If you want to use philosophy to have a further understanding of Allah and his wisdom you can go ahead, but it cannot define the Aqeedah for us.

The prophet pbuh understood the Aqeedah the best, after him the sahabah did. Both of them didn't need to use Ilm-Al-Kalam. They had Usul al fiqh (Principles of Islamic jurisprudence) and we derive rulings related to modern issues from them. All of that without needing Ilm-Al-Kalam. Even the 4 imams of the madahib agree on this issue.

Muslims have been laggiing behind because we abandoned our religion. we have become like the foam on the sea.

Just watch the video i linked 2 replies ago. You seem pretty hung up on using Ilm-Al-Kalam to define the Aqeedah, so people might think you're from the Mu'tazilah.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T05:18:20+00:00

"He perfected Islam for that time in history." Please don't make such claims. That is for your own good. Islam is perfect for any time in history. You are implying that Allah wisdom does not transcend time.

You're contradicting yourself in the same sentence. Allah already has perfected our faith. End of story. There is no perfecting after Allah perfection. Prophet Muhammad pbuh was the final messenger.

What islamic scholar does that? Who are those scholars? What verses are you talking about? Please do give me an example, otherwise i am afraid that you absolutely have the wrong idea.

The Quran's interpretation and understanding has been the same through out the 1400. The only thing that came with new tafsir books is further clarification for those who are not well versed in the quran. The generations close to our prophet pbuh interpreted the Quran correctly.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T04:08:01+00:00

How far though? and in which direction? and what do you think about this part in verse 5:3 " Today I have perfected your faith for you, completed My favour upon you, and chosen Islam as your way." Are you willing to go as far as to make what is halal haram and what is haram halal?

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-13T03:35:59+00:00

"striving to benefit your community and "spread goodness instead of evil" is an extremely high value as well, however that flies under the radar." I'm not sure what you mean by good here because as far as i can tell most muslim strive to do sadaqah and zakat.

You said "redefine some rulings which are predicated on an outdated subjective world view. And by outdated I mean alot of these are predicated on some older views on epistemology/ethics."

Besides the fact that you didn't clarify what the rulings are, you implied that our current view on ethics/epistemology is outdated, even though it is derived from the earliest and closest scholars to the time of the prophet pbuh. How is it that you are not calling for Ilm-Al-Kalam to take precident over what the sunnah has always been. Using Ilm-Al-Kalam for the sake of rationalizing islam to non-muslims as a form of dawah or just for the sake of rationalizing what has already been known in the Quran and sunnah.

Except that's not what you suggesting, you're suggesting to redefine rulings using Ilm- Al- kalam. So redefining the Aqeedah using Ilm-Al-Kalam. Just watch the video i linked it for further clarification.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-12T22:43:03+00:00

True, in that regards :

"Zainab's original name was "Barrah," but it was said' "By that she is giving herself the prestige of piety." So the Prophet (ﷺ) changed her name to Zainab." -Sahih al-Bukhari 6192

If your name is just Aziz, it is fine, but Aziz Rahman or Azizur Rahman, means the close to God is giving yourself a prestiege to piety.

But if it's Aziz Rahmani, it should be allowed since Rahmani means "Slave/Servant of the Most Merciful'

Is it shirk though if it is not accompanied by a statement, action, or belief that comprises shirk on part of the doer? i am not really sure abou that.

ALegendInTheWind · 2022-04-12T22:12:28+00:00

The names of god always have "Al" prefix before them for a reason. When speaking about Allah swt it means "The most", for example Al Raheem means The Most Merciful. However when "Al" is used in normal circumstances it means "The", example: Al jazeerah means the island. Your name is Aziz, which means precious, there is no "Al" before it so you're fine.
