00:32 Respected viewers and listeners
00:34 Once again, we are here with the program "Sarmaya As-Silaaf"
00:38 Today, our topic is "Nasir-ud-Din, Imam-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat
00:43 Imam Abul-Hassan Ali bin Ismail Ash'ari Basri Baghdadi Rahimahullah
00:49 Died in 324 AH and a few words of his
00:54 Viewers, what Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah has to say
00:57 In the doctrine of Iqaid, in the knowledge of speech
01:01 There are two schools of thought of Ahl-e-Sunnah
01:04 Like in the Farooq, in the Fikhi issues, there are four schools of thought
01:09 Four schools of thought
01:11 Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hambali
01:14 Similarly, in the knowledge of belief and speech, there are two schools of thought of Ahl-e-Sunnah
01:19 One, Ash'ari, which is attributed to Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah
01:23 The second is Ma Turidi, which is attributed to Imam Abu Mansur Ma Turidi Rahimahullah
01:28 We have already done the episode number 35 of "Sarmaya As-Silaaf" about Imam Abu Mansur Ma Turidi Rahimahullah
01:33 If you want to know about his situation, then go to the playlist of "Sarmaya As-Silaaf"
01:37 Go to that, in the episode number 35, see and listen to his situation
01:42 We will talk about Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah today
01:45 The research of Imam Zahid Kausri Rahimahullah is that
01:48 In Shafi'ah, Maliki, all of them are Ash'ari
01:52 They follow Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah in the principles
01:55 In Farooq, they follow Imam Malik, Maliki
01:58 In Farooq, they follow Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah in the principles
02:03 In Shafi'ah, three-fourth of them follow Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah
02:10 In Farooq, they are Shafi'ah, in Farooq, they are Ash'ari
02:13 In principle, they are Ash'ari
02:15 Three-fourth of them are Shafi'ah
02:17 The rest of the Shafi'ah, some of them were Mu'tazila
02:20 In Hanafi'ah, Imam Zahid Kausri Rahimahullah says that two-third of Hanafi'ah follow Imam Abu Mansur Ma'at-ur-Ridhi Rahimahullah
02:29 And one-third of Hanafi'ah follow Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah
02:33 And for example, the name of whom is mentioned is Mir Sharif Jorjani Rahimahullah
02:38 He is also Hanafi
02:39 In Farooq, he is Hanafi, in principle, he is Ash'ari
02:42 He is attributed to Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah
02:44 He has a connection with their school of thought
02:46 Similarly, some people from Hanbali'ah also follow Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah
02:52 In Farooq, they follow Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal Rahimahullah
02:55 And in principle, in the book of belief and speech, they follow Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah
02:59 So, the beliefs are the same
03:02 Whether it is Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah or Imam Abu Mansur Ma'at-ur-Ridhi Rahimahullah
03:06 It is said that both these Imams and their followers are in agreement on the beliefs
03:11 The difference of opinion is in the definition, explanation, and interpretation
03:17 The points of view are different
03:19 And in some partial matters, the points of view are different
03:22 The rest, the principles, the fundamental beliefs, in those fundamental beliefs, all have the same view
03:27 And the partial difference or the difference in the definition, explanation, and interpretation
03:32 That difference is not of such a level that on the basis of it, a command can be placed on someone
03:37 Neither of Takfeer, nor of Tadaleel, nor of Tafseer, such a command can be placed on him
03:43 This difference is the same as Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Farooq, there is a difference
03:48 Similarly, in principle, this difference is of the same type
03:51 Which does not reach Takfeer, Tadaleel, or Tafseer
03:55 Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah was a very high scholar
04:00 And in the knowledge of belief and speech, his name is prominent
04:05 The top of the list, whose name is mentioned, is Imam Abul-Hassan Ash'ari Rahimahullah
04:10 In the knowledge of belief and speech
04:12 Rest, you were also skilled in other arts
04:14 You were also skilled in Tafseer
04:16 You were also skilled in Hadith and Fiqh
04:19 But your fundamental field is the field of knowledge of belief and speech
04:23 The skill of Tafseer is based on the fact that you wrote a very extensive Tafseer
04:28 Which was in 70 volumes according to Allama Makrazi
04:32 And according to Qazi Ibn-ul-Arabi Maliki Rahimahullah
04:35 It was in 500 volumes
04:39 That is, you wrote such a vast Tafseer
04:41 And Allama Taj-ud-Din Shafi Rahimahullah has also seen one volume of it
04:47 That is, it was present before, but unfortunately now that Tafseer is missing
04:52 It is missing, it is lost
04:53 In the fitna of Tatar or on the occasion of another event, that Tafseer was lost
04:58 Now that Tafseer is not present, but its mention is present in the books
05:02 And the scholars who have seen it properly
05:04 And have benefited from it
05:05 They have also mentioned it properly
05:07 And have also copied the words from it
05:09 And many of your students have also copied your words from that Tafseer
05:13 In their books
05:14 Maulana S. Ashri Rahimahullah was such a great Imam
05:17 That he himself is a great Imam
05:19 Ustad Abu Ishaq Isfairani Rahimahullah
05:21 Ustad Abu Ishaq Isfairani Rahimahullah is such a great Imam
05:25 That when in the books of knowledge of belief and speech
05:28 The absolute teacher is mentioned
05:30 That is, the name is not mentioned, only the name of the teacher is mentioned
05:34 The teacher said
05:35 So this means Imam Abu Ishaq Isfairani Rahimahullah
05:38 So this Imam Abu Ishaq Isfairani Rahimahullah
05:41 These are the great students of Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah
05:45 Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri's student was Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili Rahimahullah
05:49 Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili's student is Ustad Abu Ishaq Isfairani Rahimahullah
05:53 And Ustad Abu Ishaq Isfairani Rahimahullah says
05:56 I consider myself in front of Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili
06:00 As a drop in the sea
06:04 A drop in the sea
06:05 Like there is a drop in the sea
06:07 So Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili Rahimahullah is the sea
06:10 And I have the status of a drop in it
06:12 And he says further
06:14 And I heard my teacher Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili say
06:18 That he used to say the name of Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri
06:21 That I am in front of Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah
06:24 Like a drop in the sea
06:26 That means Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah is the sea of knowledge
06:30 And despite my full knowledge
06:33 In comparison to him I am just a drop of the sea of knowledge
06:37 And that drop is also of his sea
06:40 So this is such a big tribute
06:42 Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah
06:44 Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili Rahimahullah who himself found the Imam
06:47 Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili
06:49 Found the Imam high
06:51 Like Imam Ustad Abu Saak Isfahaini
06:53 He is saying that this is the sea of knowledge and we are a drop
06:55 This is what Imam Abu Al-Hassan Bahili is saying for Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah
06:58 That this is the sea of knowledge and I am a drop in comparison to him
07:01 So just guess from this
07:03 How high was the foot of Imam Abu Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah
07:06 He was in the right meaning
07:07 The sea of knowledge
07:09 In the right meaning
07:10 The mountain of knowledge
07:11 The mountain of knowledge
07:12 The mountain of knowledge and the sea of knowledge
07:14 Such words have been used for the people
07:17 Among them is Imam Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah
07:20 Imam Al-Hassan Ashri Rahimahullah
07:22 Your name
07:24 Your name is Ali
07:26 Ali bin Ismail
07:27 Abu Al-Hassan is your title
07:28 The name of Ali bin Ismail
07:30 Ashari is related to your tribe
07:32 You are Imam Abu Musa Ashari
07:35 The companion of the Messenger of Allah
07:37 The real name is Abdullah bin Qais
07:39 And famous
07:40 In the name of Abu Musa Ashari
07:42 Hazrat Abu Musa Ashari
07:43 The most respected companion of the Messenger of Allah
07:45 You are from their children
07:47 You are from their family
07:48 That's why you are called Ashari
07:50 And this Ashari tribe is a very famous tribe
07:53 The real name of this tribe
07:55 He was named Ashari
07:56 Because
07:57 One of his ancestors
07:59 His name was actually
08:01 Napt bin Adad
08:03 But when he was born
08:05 He had so much hair on his body
08:07 Hair in the Arabic language
08:09 Because of the hair
08:10 People said
08:11 This is Ashari
08:12 So his real name was Napt
08:14 Napt bin Adad
08:15 But the name became Ashari
08:17 Then after that
08:18 All those who came under him
08:20 From their family
08:21 Those who were born from their offspring
08:23 Those who have children
08:24 So the name became part of them
08:25 Ashari
08:26 And the whole tribe
08:27 Then the name became Ashari
08:29 So this is your relation
08:30 Towards the Ashari tribe
08:32 And Hazrat Abu Musa Ashari
08:33 You are from the family of the Messenger of Allah
08:35 Basri
08:36 Which is used by your name
08:37 Because your birth was in Basra
08:39 You have lived in Basra for many years
08:42 That's why you are called Basri
08:44 Then later you migrated to Baghdad
08:46 So on the basis of this
08:47 You are also called Baghdadi
08:49 Your birth in Basra
08:51 There are different sayings about your birth
08:53 But the most famous saying
08:55 It is of 260 AH
08:57 There is also a saying of 270 AH
08:59 There is also a saying of 266 AH
09:01 But the most famous saying is
09:03 That your birth was in 260 AH
09:06 There are also different sayings about your birth
09:09 But the most famous saying is of 324 AH
09:12 Imam Al-Ahsan Ashari
09:14 In addition to being highly ranked in knowledge and virtue
09:18 In addition to being highly ranked in knowledge and virtue
09:20 He was also very advanced in righteousness
09:23 He was a zahid
09:24 You have lived a life of zuhd
09:26 Your present king mentions
09:28 That your servants tell
09:30 That your annual expense
09:32 It was not more than 17 dirhams
09:34 It was a great amount
09:36 In worldly matters
09:38 You used to work with contentment
09:40 You used to avoid exhaustion
09:41 You used to live a life of zuhd
09:43 And you used to worship like this
09:45 You used to offer Nawafil at night
09:49 Sometimes you used to spend the whole night in worship
09:52 You used to worship so hard
09:54 And despite this
09:55 On one hand you are a mountain of knowledge
09:57 On the other hand you are so advanced in righteousness and worship
10:00 Despite this
10:01 Your relationship with the present creation was exemplary
10:04 By the way, it is generally seen
10:06 That those who are more advanced in knowledge
10:09 Then there is a little dryness in the temperament
10:12 Dryness comes
10:13 Similarly, those who are a little advanced in worship
10:15 Then there is a little dryness in their temperament
10:18 Dryness comes
10:19 But some imams, some akabirs
10:21 There are such people of Allah
10:22 That they are also advanced in knowledge
10:24 They are also advanced in righteousness and worship
10:26 But despite this
10:27 There is no dryness in their temperament
10:29 There is happiness in their temperament
10:31 They are happy
10:32 When they meet the creation
10:34 They are humble
10:36 And they are also happy with them
10:38 There is a side of joy in temperament
10:40 Imam Hasan Ashri was one of those elders
10:42 Your translators, your historians have explained it
10:45 That there was a happiness in your temperament
10:48 And you used to be happy with people
10:50 Despite the vastness of knowledge and abundance
10:53 Despite being strong in righteousness and worship
10:56 You used to be happy with people
10:58 You used to be happy with people
11:00 Despite being in the circle of Shariah
11:02 Imam Hasan Ashri's memory was very strong
11:05 And your power of speech was so strong
11:08 That no one could speak in front of you
11:11 You had a great skill in debates
11:14 And he is a great imam
11:15 He is a Sufi himself
11:16 And Imam Hasan Ashri's student is also
11:19 Ustad Abu Abdullah bin Khafif
11:21 In the previous program, Imam Harith bin Asad
11:23 I mentioned him in the program of Muhasib bin Rahim
11:25 Ustad Abu Abdullah bin Khafif
11:27 I mentioned him in the program of Muhasib bin Rahim
11:29 Ustad Abu Abdullah bin Khafif says
11:31 I came to Basra after hearing the fame of Imam Hasan Ashri
11:34 I felt like meeting him
11:36 I saw Imam Hasan Ashri sitting in a gathering
11:39 The first day I saw him
11:41 I asked him who is Imam Hasan Ashri
11:44 He did not tell me
11:46 He said come tomorrow and meet him
11:48 The next day I went there
11:50 I saw a gathering
11:52 There were many people sitting in the gathering
11:54 Imam Hasan Ashri was also sitting there
11:56 There was a misguided sect
11:58 His people, his representatives, his scholars were sitting there
12:01 And they were presenting their objections
12:04 Imam Hasan Ashri was listening to everyone
12:06 After listening, when they finished their speech
12:08 Imam Hasan Ashri started speaking
12:11 He addressed everyone
12:13 He said
12:14 You said this and that
12:16 And his answer is like this
12:19 Then he addressed the second one
12:21 Then the third one, then the fourth one
12:22 He repeated the objections of everyone
12:25 And he also answered the objections of everyone
12:28 In a great way
12:29 Everyone was silent in front of him
12:31 And everyone accepted what he said
12:33 And the end of the gathering was like this
12:35 Everyone was facing you
12:37 And everyone was bowing their heads in front of you
12:39 Saad Abubudillah bin Khafeel says
12:41 When the elders got up and went ahead
12:45 I started following them
12:47 And I started looking at them very carefully
12:49 I blinked my eyes and blinked my eyes again and again
12:52 They said to me
12:53 What are you looking at?
12:55 I said to them
12:56 I am looking at how many tongues you have
13:01 How many ears you have
13:03 How many eyes you have
13:05 So they laughed at this
13:07 That is, seeing the strength of the memory of Imam Hasan Ashri
13:12 Seeing the quality of your speech
13:15 And in the gathering, you made everyone quiet
13:18 You answered everyone's doubts
13:20 And at the same time, you heard their objections
13:23 And answered everyone's doubts
13:25 And seeing your response
13:27 They were so surprised
13:28 That they started looking
13:29 That he has only one tongue
13:31 He has two ears
13:32 He has two eyes
13:33 He is closer to them than this
13:35 He is far from two-eyed, two-eared and one-tongued man
13:39 That he heard so many people's talks at one time
13:42 Look at them
13:43 Then pay full attention to them
13:45 And make everyone quiet
13:46 Answer everyone
13:47 This is rare and rare
13:50 So they saw your greatness
13:53 And accepted it with heart
13:54 And then they
13:55 They took your company
13:57 Imam Hasan Ashri
13:58 You have studied many books of Imam Hasan Ashri
14:03 You have studied more than 300 books
14:07 But they have been lost
14:10 Most books are missing
14:11 Lost
14:12 We did not reach
14:13 The literature that has reached us
14:16 I will mention some of the selected books
14:19 In short
14:20 And your teachers and students
14:22 We will mention in an episode
14:25 If we come to the books
14:26 Your colleagues
14:27 You have studied a very good book in these colleagues
14:30 In the name of "Istehsanul khaud fi ilmul kalam"
14:33 I have the decoration of our table in my hand
14:35 In this book, you have highlighted
14:37 Those who object to "ilmul kalam"
14:39 And "ilmul aqeedah"
14:40 That this is a innovation
14:41 And you cannot speak in it
14:43 You have given three answers to it
14:45 And explained it in a very good way
14:47 You have given answers in a logical way
14:49 Explained it in a very good way
14:51 Explained it in such a way
14:52 That the suspicion
14:53 It was proven to be weaker than the spider's web
14:57 The spider's web is called "makri ke jaal"
14:59 That is, the way the spider's web is weak
15:01 When you have come to answer their suspicions
15:04 You have proved it in such a way
15:06 That they do not hold more than the spider's web
15:08 Their suspicions
15:09 And "ilmul aqeedah wal kalam"
15:11 It is "mustahsan" to ponder over it
15:13 And "farzi" is sufficient
15:15 You have proved it with great excellence and quality
15:17 And there is a very good translation of it in the market
15:20 "Idaahul maraam min risalatil ashari al imam"
15:23 That is also the honor of our table
15:25 Then after this, you have studied the book
15:27 "Maqalatul Islamiyeen wa ikhtilaful musalleen"
15:30 All the Islamic sects
15:32 Which are Muslims
15:34 And all the sects that have been formed
15:35 The statements of all those sects
15:37 What are their statements?
15:38 What are their views?
15:40 What are their thoughts?
15:41 The mention of their views
15:43 And you have given their introduction in a very good way
15:46 That is, it is an encyclopedia
15:48 With reference to the history of groups of sects
15:51 "Maqalatul Islamiyeen wa ikhtilaful musalleen"
15:54 And from such an imam
15:56 From such a scholar
15:58 Who is an authority on this art
16:00 Whose authority is considered
16:02 This book is very good
16:03 The Urdu translation of this book is also available in the market
16:05 The original book is in Arabic
16:06 The Urdu translation is also available
16:07 Then you have studied the book
16:09 "Al-Luma fi-r-raddi ala ahl-e-zayyi wal-bida'i"
16:12 This book is also in my hand
16:13 It is also on the knowledge of belief and speech
16:15 It is a brief book
16:16 But it is very good
16:17 It is very good
16:18 It is on the knowledge of belief and speech
16:19 It is worth reading
16:20 Then you have studied this book
16:22 "Risala ila ahl-e-saghr bi-bab-il-abwab"
16:25 This is called the border
16:27 Bab-ul-Abwab was an area
16:29 Which is also called Bab-ul-Hadeed in the modern language
16:32 Bab-ul-Hadeedi is also called
16:33 Some of the border areas there
16:35 Some of the border areas of Bab-ul-Abwab
16:37 Some of the border areas
16:38 The jurists had sent you some questions
16:40 So you had written their answer
16:42 In the form of a letter
16:44 It is published
16:45 It is called "Risala ila ahl-e-saghr bi-bab-il-abwab"
16:47 It is also on the knowledge of belief and speech
16:49 It is very good
16:50 And at the end of it
16:51 You have also given a list of 51 collective issues
16:54 Which are in your view
16:55 You have also mentioned the collective issues
16:57 Then after this
16:58 We see your book
16:59 "Al-Ibaana an-usool-e-dyaana"
17:02 This book is also a very magnificent and excellent book
17:05 But the printed copies of this book
17:07 There are references in them
17:09 So the readers who want to read it
17:11 They should refer to the Mustana-e-Dulama
17:13 And keep in mind the other books of Imam Abu-Hassan Ashari
17:16 So that they can find out
17:18 Which is the fabricated area
17:20 Which is wrongly attributed to them
17:22 But anyway, this is your writing
17:24 Then after this
17:25 We see a book
17:26 "Mujaradu Maqalat-ul-Imam-e-Sheikh-e-Ab-il-Hassan-al-Ashari"
17:30 This book is by the name of Imam Abu-Bakr Muhammad bin Hassan Ibn-e-Furaq
17:35 Who was the student of your student
17:37 Ibn-e-Furaq is the one who
17:39 Ustad Abu-Sa'ad Isfahaini and Qazi-e-Bakr Bakilani
17:42 These three are called the triangle of knowledge
17:46 Triangle of knowledge
17:47 That this is the triangle of knowledge
17:48 This is the triangle of knowledge
17:49 There are such great scholars
17:50 And these three gentlemen
17:51 Imam Abu-Hassan Ashari is the student of the student
17:55 So among these three
17:56 Qazi-e-Bakr Ibn-e-Furaq
17:58 The book he wrote
18:00 "Mujaradu Maqalat-ul-Imam-e-Sheikh-e-Ab-il-Hassan-al-Ashari"
18:02 In this, many books of Imam Abu-Hassan Ashari
18:05 He has collected many books
18:07 And collected many opinions and thoughts
18:09 Good book, worth reading
18:10 Then we see a book
18:12 "Badi-umda Imam Hafiz Ibn-e-Asakir Dimashqi"
18:15 Our special respect
18:16 "Tabyeenu Qazi-bil-Muftari Fima Nasaba Ila-l-Imam-il-Ashari"
