salam that my nation will be

divided into 73 sects all of them are in

hell except one

so they said which one is it Oh prophet

of Allah the prophet said whoever

follows my footsteps and the footsteps

of the Companions this is the saved sect

which I claim as well as you do that we

are insha'Allah among them and how do we

know that we are among them by following

the Quran and the Sunnah

nobody's else footsteps we're following

whatever we do you ask me you question

me you stop me in the middle of the

street if you can and I'll answer your

question say share how do you prove that

the Prophet did what you're doing and

I'll show it to you from the Quran and

from the Sunnah other sects can't do

that you tell you tell them why do you

do this

he says Simon says you have to obey but

although I did not order me to follow

and obey Simon Allah ordered me to obey

the Prophet RA salatu salam going back

to our question what does this have to

do with fasting ramadan if a person does

not fast Ramadan is he a kafir first of

all do not play with fire otherwise

you're gonna burn yourself those who

play the TEC fear game so look at me I'm

wearing the Saudi robe and this red

smell we call it I look like a share if

I keep on looking at people and

classifying them hmm

this guy's clothes are below his ankle

is a kafir this guy fornicates with

women he's a kafir this guy

consumes intoxicants it's a major sin

he's in hell he's a kafir this is the

treats of the huarache Allah did not

send me as a judge I'm gonna be

questioned about my own actions and

beliefs not about others so why would I

engage in giving that fear to people not

that it is not part of it slam it is

part of Islam but not to every Tom Dick

and Harry this is something that is

given and appointed to scholars of Islam

after fulfilling the conditions this

individual he's a kafir did you make

sure that the conditions are fulfilled

did you interview him did you

interrogate him are you sure that there

are no obstacles available in him that

prevents us from labeling mass kafir

no I did but he did so and so he's a

kafir you're wrong the Prophet says are

they so some whoever says to his brother

ya kafir one of them is gonna pick it up

either he is truly a kafir it's gonna

stick to him if he's not it's gonna

deflect and come back at me and I'll be

described as a kafir this is a serious

offense so coming back to our question

the person who does not fast Ramadan is

he a kafir Alisoun Mathew aljahmeir

and this is very important and this was

mentioned in el happy that it haha we

which is a big book that speaks about

our Ikeda and it says how he says and we

do not label anyone as a kafir for doing

something unless he makes it Helen we do

not make our label anyone kafir due to a

sin he committed unless we say that he

he says or believes that it is halal

now this statement also has been

explained by many scholars before

in a nutshell I'm not gonna take you

into details because as they say the

devil is in the details the devil does

not have the guts to come and discuss

these things with us because it gets us

closer to Allah so it's just a metaphor

now 'his anata wa l-jama'a believe that

no sin takes you out of the fold of

Islam unless it is sheer cork offer or

salat oh sure

why are you excluding salat I did not

exclude salat

it's the prophet alayhi salatu salam who

stated that between man and shark or co4

is abandoning salat whoever abandons

salat is a kafir he has committed Cofer

this is the prophets hadith it's

authentic I'm not going to go there

because our series are about fasting

this is what I believe you can always

watch the great debate that took place

four years or five years ago in

Birmingham Green Lane mastery between

the Honorable Sheikh Abu Amina Bilal

Philips and my self we discussed this

whether he is a kafir or not and you can

judge for yourself

beautiful debate beautiful manners of my

great beloved brother Amina and it was

enjoyable the weather was fine check it

out so I'm not gonna talk about salat

I'm not gonna talk about everything else

if I consumed in toxicants is it hell

Haram no I'm I know it's Haram but I

like partying I like to drink booze I'm

sinful I'm committing a major sin I'm

still Muslim okay what about the pillars

of Islam if I don't give zakat money in

my account or not what is my intention

is

my intention that zakat is not mandatory

no I agree it's a pillar of Islam but

I'm stingy I don't feel like giving

zakat I'm committing one of the most

heinous and major sins in Islam but I'm

still a Muslim

do I go further I think you got my point

what about fasting shit my cousin

doesn't fasts a single day in drama bond

come why don't you fast Ramadan is it a

pillar of Islam suggests I acknowledge

what I'm least I don't want a fast you

are committing a major and serious sin

that we'd probably throw you in hell for

a hundred years no know how long it's

all in Allah's hand maybe Allah so gel

doesn't punish you but you're not a

kafir you're still a Muslim but in great

danger so to answer the question

consequences of living fast isn't just

like living Salah will it lead to cover

the answer is no it would not need to

cover until you believe and I'll give

you another example of the person who

likes to drink booze so he drinks booze

it is pre-recorded it's not Ramadan so

this is pre-recorded um this is not live

I'm not with you in Ramadan this time

you're watching this I'm in home Jeddah

fasted with my kids so someone who

drinks booze and he acknowledges that it

is Haram and it's a major sin is he a

kafir no he's a Muslim Allah so Jill may

punish him and may forgive him no one

has control over that it except Allah so

Jay a person who never put a single drop

of intoxicants in his mouth but he

believes that wine is not Haram

he is a full-fledged kafir

is belief not because of his action he

did not drink a drop in his life but

because he believes that it is not Haram

though Allah has mentioned this in black

and white and we show him the evidences

from the Quran and from the Sun now we

fulfilled the conditions upon him and we

know that he has no obstacles in this

case the guy has become an apostate so

this is a very important and big

difference between the two when a person

makes a sin believing in it and when a

person believes that the sin is not

sinful and he refuses to acknowledge it

and Allah social knows best yet this

leads us to a 1 million Kuwaiti dinar

question dollars is underrated Quetta

dinar is high so a person who does not

pray should he fast you are not the

judge what do you mean okay don't judge

people and say listen you don't pray

you're a kafir hence you should not fast

what would he do

so a life I'm a cafe and I'm already in

hell might as well leave fasting no this

is not your role your role is a diary

your role is to make people love

goodness and abstain and refrain from

evil and bad things so if a person

doesn't pray yet he fasts he might fast

because if he his belief in Allah he

might fast because of the society in

those around him as a culture it's not

your business

bank on it and utilize it use these

positive feelings in him and ask him to

start to pray at least our way you

invite him to pray a prayer in the

message once every blue moon at least

tell him that Allah forgiveness is the

and if he succeeds in maintaining prayer

that allah azza wajal

would love him more and more
