In the realm of fatwa, the extent to which someone views their audience to be both intelligent and morally responsible will naturally affect their legal conclusions and guidance on a topic. This is pretty natural. You wouldn't expect an illiterate man in the middle of a village to be addressed in the same way as an educated non-specialist. The villager is likelier to be held by the hand when presented legal guidance, especially when the issue in question carries multiple variables. Naturally, then, those with little confidence in their audience’s intelligence or moral responsibility are more likely to argue for unrestricted prohibition rather than conditional permissibility, or to appeal...

Sh. Yusuf al-Qaradawi (d. 2022) on the consequence inauthentic reports can have in understanding the priorities of Divine guidance and the hierarchy of laws. This point is frequently missed when discussing the utility of weak reports - a topic which often gets turned into some strange polemic. In summary, he says that Allah the All-Wise has given each action its unique value of importance within the hierarchy of laws. This value of importance must be recognised and should neither be emphasised more than it deserves, nor should it be devalued from its appropriate status. One of the consequences of not recognising this is the tendency to exaggerate the reward or punishment of an action, whi...

Sh. Abu Ghuddah (d. 1997) on whether it is necessary to pledge allegiance to a spiritual guide or mentor. I quote Sh. Abu Ghuddah as someone whose reputation as a traditionalist is perhaps uncontested. In summary, he states that it is not necessary, and that Divine revelation is itself a 'guider' and assigns personal responsibility to each individual and their relationship with Allah. He later quotes Imam Shatibi (d. 790 AH) who states that the requirement of sticking by a single spiritual guide is historically a later trend that is not found in earlier works. What is found from earlier practice is to rather benefit from teachers imparting general knowledge (شيخُ تعليم) - (which is why pe...

The ambiguity in the term 'Tasawwuf/Sufism' often leads to disagreement in public perception. The term Tasawwuf can be used for embodying ethical virtues on the one hand, but can also be used for different types of mysticism, non-transparent forms of knowledge, or a formal system of "spiritual" groups (or cults at the far end of the spectrum). This is why scholars, including Sh. Abd al-Fattah Abu Ghuddah (d. 1997), sought to sift through the term Tasawwuf, to include only the things they characterised as conforming to Divine revelation or (the spirit of) the practice of early communities. In other words, they recognised that the term Tasawwuf is appealed to quite broadly, and can include b...

You don't need to read every book in your library, but you should certainly know which books are sitting on the shelves. This is one of the issues that naturally arises when buying books in bulk... or downloading a ton of papers online with the click of a button. Forgotten books that sit on the shelf are effectively like undiscovered manuscripts. They don't actually exist until you find them. The way around this is for you to actually gain familiarity with each work you have by scanning through them or reading select passages before placing it on your shelf. In other words, when you buy a book, always check the contents page and look for something that catches your interest. That way yo...

Some might be curious about contemporary scholarly views on Jinn possession. To be more accurate, this is a question on whether it is possible for Jinn to have complete control over a human's body such that they lose all autonomy or control. There are two aspects to this discussion: one is whether this is a required theological belief that is textually mandated, and the other is how to help those who are clearly troubled and in need of assistance (may Allah ease their suffering). This post is focused on the former: is it a theologically mandated belief? In summary, there is no text that is both authentic and explicit to indicate this as a theological reality. In fact, the opposite can be...

It's been a while since I've shared a book summary. https://youtu.be/ixTp6stXfJE?si=yhiCwjpIhJl9v6sb This is my summary of Imam Ghazzali's (d. 505) work on the relationship between reason and revelation, known as Qanun al-Ta'wil (The Rule of Interpretation). I explore Imam Ghazzali's life and biography (including his temporary spiritual crisis), then offer a summary of the book, before landing myself on the topic of Jinn possession where I share the views of contemporary scholars. I hope you enjoy! ❤️🙏

As Imam Ghazali (d. 505) says, the intellect is the very thing by which one recognises the truth of revelation. It makes little sense, then, to assume that after embracing revelation, one is called to dismiss the very intellect that got them to the truth in the first place - as something that was initially a source of knowledge cannot suddenly stop being a source of knowledge. قال الإمام الغزالي: من كذب العقل فقد كذب الشرع، إذ بالعقل عرف صدق الشرع. ولولا صدق دليل العقل لما عرفنا الفرق بين النبي والمتنبي والصادق والكاذب. وكيف يكذب العقل بالشرع، وما ثبت الشرع إلا بالعقل؟ (قانون التأويل)

In an important verse from Surah Al Imran, Allah teaches us the principle of how to correctly understand Scripture. Allah says: "It is He who revealed to you the Scripture. Some of its verses are definite in meaning (muhkamat) —these are the foundation of the Scripture—and others are ambiguous (mutashabihat). As for those in whose hearts there is perversity, they follow whatever is ambiguous in it, seeking dissension and seeking (to distort) its interpretation." (3:7) Allah categorises verses into two: 1) Decisive (Muhkamat) 2) Ambiguous (Mutashabihat) He then tells us that the decisive verses (muhkamat) are the foundations of the Quran, and that because they are the foundation of Scriptur...

This last post just reminded me of myself while in the Islamic seminary. 😅 While I was in the Islamic seminary, I had maintained a consistent interest in Fiqh studies throughout the years, and also went through periods of focused Kalam reading and Hadith reading, both in and out of the institute. My interests thereafter have involved deep dives into different topics throughout the sciences, and have been shifting perpetually alhamdulillah! There was one seasonal topic that I happened to be invested in during my early study years, however, and that was the topic of how to perform Isha during persistent twilight in the UK. A handful of teachers may have also associated this with me after I...
