WEBVTT 00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:09.730 Summary of Sunni concepts 00:00:09.730 --> 00:00:13.910 What is meant by debate? 00:00:13.910 --> 00:00:19.910 Debate is dialogue and debate between two parties about a specific topic 00:00:19.910 --> 00:00:23.910 Each of them has an opinion that differs from the other 00:00:23.910 --> 00:00:30.910 Each of them tries to prove his point of view and invalidate the other's point of view 00:00:30.910 --> 00:00:35.909 Or arriving at a debate on the debated issue 00:00:35.909 --> 00:00:41.909 It is an area of ijtihad that allows for disagreement but does not necessitate division 00:00:41.909 --> 00:00:49.130 With a sincere desire for the truth to appear and to recognize it when it appears 00:00:49.130 --> 00:00:52.340 Of symmetry 00:00:52.340 --> 00:00:57.340 The first is to seek debate with scholars and abandon debate with ignorant people 00:00:57.340 --> 00:01:02.340 Because it is not based on principles that can be referred to in the event of disagreement 00:01:02.340 --> 00:01:07.340 Rather, it is built on whims and increases people's ignorance and suspicion 00:01:07.340 --> 00:01:14.379 Perhaps the ignorant person will defeat his opponent and silence him through arrogance rather than through force of argument 00:01:14.379 --> 00:01:17.379 Imam Al-Shafi’i was right when he said 00:01:17.379 --> 00:01:24.379 I debated with a scholar and defeated him, and an ignorant scholar debated with me and defeated me 00:01:24.379 --> 00:01:28.109 How to argue with arrogant people 00:01:28.109 --> 00:01:35.620 If the arrogant person argues about things, he cannot argue about everything 00:01:35.620 --> 00:01:38.620 Let him be careful not to harm him when arguing with him 00:01:38.620 --> 00:01:44.620 To change from what he is arguing about to what he cannot argue about 00:01:44.620 --> 00:01:48.780 To oblige him to recognize the truth 00:01:48.780 --> 00:01:53.780 As Abraham, peace be upon him, did with those who argued with him about his Lord 00:01:53.780 --> 00:01:55.780 God Almighty said 00:01:55.780 --> 00:02:02.780 Have you not seen the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord that God had given him the kingdom? 00:02:02.780 --> 00:02:07.780 When Abraham said, “My Lord is the One who gives life and causes death.” 00:02:07.780 --> 00:02:10.780 He said: I give life and I kill 00:02:10.780 --> 00:02:17.780 Abraham said, “God brings the sun from the east, so bring it from the west.” 00:02:17.780 --> 00:02:23.780 So the one who disbelieved was astonished, and God does not guide the unjust people 00:02:23.780 --> 00:02:29.419 Principles to be taken into account before arguing to be right 00:02:29.419 --> 00:02:35.699 Before the debate, the scientist must look at the person he is debating 00:02:35.699 --> 00:02:41.699 Does he believe in certainties and axioms, or does he dispute them as well? 00:02:41.699 --> 00:02:47.699 If he does not believe in it, there is no point in debating with him about the branches 00:02:47.699 --> 00:02:49.699 That's a waste of time 00:02:49.699 --> 00:02:52.699 As should the debaters 00:02:52.699 --> 00:02:55.699 Agreement on the reasoning method 00:02:55.699 --> 00:02:58.699 Otherwise, the gap of disagreement will widen 00:02:58.699 --> 00:03:01.699 It will not reach a result 00:03:01.699 --> 00:03:05.500 Editing the dispute 00:03:05.500 --> 00:03:11.620 Before the debate, it is also necessary to edit the subject of the dispute 00:03:11.620 --> 00:03:17.620 So as not to waste time on matters that are the subject of agreement between the two parties 00:03:17.620 --> 00:03:20.620 Or so that the discussion does not become more complicated 00:03:20.620 --> 00:03:23.620 He argues about matters that go beyond what is intended 00:03:23.620 --> 00:03:27.620 Or the lowest rank of what the debater denies 00:03:27.620 --> 00:03:31.620 It may be similar to the prohibition of mixing 00:03:31.620 --> 00:03:34.620 He sees it as permissible for women to display adornment 00:03:34.620 --> 00:03:37.620 Or a man being alone with her, for example 00:03:37.620 --> 00:03:39.620 It is correct then 00:03:39.620 --> 00:03:42.620 Refrain from talking about mingling 00:03:42.620 --> 00:03:47.300 To the symmetry in the prohibition of display and seclusion 00:03:47.300 --> 00:03:50.710 Debate etiquette 00:03:50.710 --> 00:03:54.710 It is one of the etiquettes of debate that we hope will benefit, God willing 00:03:54.710 --> 00:04:00.710 Presenting what is agreed upon between the interlocutors over what is disputed 00:04:00.710 --> 00:04:05.710 This led to the formation of the debater’s heart and his acceptance of the truth 00:04:05.710 --> 00:04:07.939 God Almighty said 00:04:07.939 --> 00:04:12.939 Say, “Do you dispute with us about God when He is our Lord and your Lord?” 00:04:12.939 --> 00:04:16.939 We have our deeds and you have your deeds 00:04:16.939 --> 00:04:19.939 We are loyal to him 00:04:19.939 --> 00:04:22.939 He provided agreement on the oneness of the Lord 00:04:22.939 --> 00:04:25.939 Despite their differences in work 00:04:25.939 --> 00:04:29.769 Arguing with the People of the Book 00:04:29.769 --> 00:04:36.279 Debating with the People of the Book should only take place in what is best 00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:39.279 As God Almighty said 00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:44.279 And do not argue with the People of the Book except in a way that is best 00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:48.310 This includes not giving back everything they have 00:04:48.310 --> 00:04:51.310 Just because they say so 00:04:51.310 --> 00:04:54.310 Rather, we accept what agrees with the truth 00:04:54.310 --> 00:04:58.310 As for the stubborn and arrogant people of the Book 00:04:58.310 --> 00:05:03.310 The attitude towards them is turning away from them 00:05:03.310 --> 00:05:09.300 Whatever contradicts the truth is invalid, whatever it is 00:05:09.300 --> 00:05:15.170 What evidence is established that it is true and the servant is certain of it 00:05:15.170 --> 00:05:19.170 It also requires that everything that opposes it is false 00:05:19.170 --> 00:05:22.170 Every suspicion brought against him is corrupt 00:05:22.170 --> 00:05:26.170 Even if the right holder cannot refute it 00:05:26.170 --> 00:05:29.170 And respond to it in detail 00:05:29.170 --> 00:05:32.170 His inability to refute it does not necessitate defamation 00:05:32.170 --> 00:05:36.170 What he asserted was right and the evidence was based on it 00:05:36.170 --> 00:05:41.170 Because whatever contradicts the truth is invalid, whatever it is 00:05:41.170 --> 00:05:43.230 God Almighty said 00:05:43.230 --> 00:05:47.230 What is after the truth except error? 00:05:47.230 --> 00:05:50.230 With this great rule 00:05:50.230 --> 00:05:54.230 Everything the speakers want is removed from man 00:05:54.230 --> 00:05:56.230 Of problems and similarities 00:05:56.230 --> 00:05:59.230 Even if the answer is not known in detail 00:05:59.230 --> 00:06:01.230 Its original function 00:06:01.230 --> 00:06:05.230 To explain the truth with his evidence and call for it
