A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.
0:08
Various forms of extremism that are left unaddressed.
0:13
Extremism is entirely blameworthy and rejected.
0:16
Yet, unfortunately, we see today a selective approach to criticizing extremism.
0:22
Many limit their criticism to only certain types.
0:26
While criticizing those types is undoubtedly necessary.
0:29
They refrain from speaking out against other forms.
0:32
True justice and the correct balance.
0:34
Is to criticize extremism in all its forms and manifestations.
0:38
And to clarify its danger to both the religion and the soul.
0:41
And to the preservation of the five essentials.
0:44
Among the forms of extremism that are left unaddressed:
0:47
First, the extremism of elevating men and raising them above their proper status.
0:53
Such as the extremism of the Rawafid regarding their Imams.
0:56
And the extremism of some Sufis regarding their shaykhs.
1:00
And the blind partisanship for certain scholars.
1:03
By prioritizing their opinions over the Qur'an and the Sunnah.
1:06
And the extremism of praising rulers, displaying their images, and glorifying them.
1:11
Second:
1:13
The extremism of the hypocrites among the liberals and secularists.
1:17
By flooding the lands with doubts and base desires.
1:21
And their audacity toward the religion and its fundamental tenets.
1:24
Such as the implementation of the Shari'ah and Jihad in the path of Allah.
1:28
And the hijab, and so on.
1:31
And their beautification of the religion of the disbelievers.
1:34
Third:
1:36
The extremism of the Rawafid in declaring the Ahl al-Sunnah to be disbelievers.
1:39
And their torturing and killing of them whenever they gain power over them.
1:43
As occurred in Iraq and Syria.
1:46
Fourth:
1:48
The extremism of some who claim to follow the Sunnah.
1:51
Those influenced by Irja'i thought in their hostility toward some scholars and callers of the Ahl al-Sunnah.
1:58
And toward those who strive in the path of Allah.
2:01
Conversely, they go to extremes in heaping praise upon oppressors.
2:05
And seeking excuses for them.
2:08
And labeling anyone who criticizes them as an innovator or a Khariji.
2:14
Fifth:
2:16
The extremism of tyrants.
2:18
They take the enemies of Allah as allies and show hostility toward His allies.
2:22
And they cause them to disappear into prisons and detention centers.
2:26
Sixth:
2:28
The extremism of both the disbelieving West and East in their disbelief.
2:32
And their oppression and war against Islam and its people.
2:36
As the Americans did in Afghanistan and Iraq.
2:40
And the news of the Rohingya in Myanmar.
2:43
And the Uyghurs in China.
2:45
Is not far from us.
2:47
It is regrettable.
2:49
That every extremist from the aforementioned groups.
2:53
Describes themselves with all sorts of beautiful, deceptive labels.
2:58
Such as moderation, balance, liberation, and enlightenment.
3:02
And so on.
3:04
In contrast to that.
3:06
They accuse the people of the truth of extremism and radicalism.
3:10
Much like the proverb says:
3:12
"She accused me of her own affliction and slipped away."
3:17
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.
