Summary of Sunni concepts

2
00:00:08,609 --> 00:00:15,630
Imitation and from pre-Islamic times is imitation of infidels

3
00:00:15,630 --> 00:00:20,629
The greatest of them is following their opinions and theories that are contrary to God’s law

4
00:00:20,629 --> 00:00:23,629
And God Almighty says

5
00:00:23,629 --> 00:00:31,629
Follow what has been revealed to you from your Lord, and do not follow any friends other than Him

6
00:00:31,629 --> 00:00:34,630
Little do you remember

7
00:00:34,630 --> 00:00:41,859
This does not mean not benefiting from their knowledge in worldly matters in a way that does not contradict Sharia law

8
00:00:41,859 --> 00:00:43,859
It is imitating the infidels

9
00:00:43,859 --> 00:00:48,859
Follow their returns, fees and social customs

10
00:00:48,859 --> 00:00:51,859
And celebrate their holidays

11
00:00:51,859 --> 00:00:57,859
The Commander of the Faithful, Omar bin Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him, forbade the nonsense of foreigners

12
00:00:57,859 --> 00:01:00,859
That is, speaking their language

13
00:01:00,859 --> 00:01:02,859
Imam Ahmed said

14
00:01:02,859 --> 00:01:07,859
Speaking in a language other than Arabic for no reason is hypocrisy

Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah said

16
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,920
Similar in appearance

17
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:17,920
A type of affection, love, and loyalty is inherited internally

18
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,920
Also, love is inside

19
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,920
Outward similarity is inherited

20
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,049

21
00:01:28,049 --> 00:01:32,049
This includes imitating Westerners when shaving their beards

22
00:01:32,049 --> 00:01:34,049
And in hair styles

23
00:01:34,049 --> 00:01:38,049
And in the fashions that distract people in this worldly life

24
00:01:38,049 --> 00:01:42,049
It distracts them from caring about important matters

25
00:01:42,049 --> 00:01:45,049
And what enables them to lead the world
