In this powerful After Maghrib episode, Sayed Mohammed Ali Rizvi reflects on the life and legacy of Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq — the revered teacher of the founders of the four Sunni madhabs: Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Hanbali. Despite his vast influence, why is Imam al-Sadiq nearly absent from Sunni hadith collections like Sahih Bukhari? Was it fear of Shi'a association? Discover the forgotten impact of his teachings on Islamic thought and the stark contrast between famous history and the real truth. A moving tribute to a giant of knowledge who still shapes minds, yet rarely gets his due.

Hana Shafi is a Canadian illustrator, essayist and poet whose new book, “People You Know, Places You've Been,” takes readers on a journey from public transportation to antique stores to waiting rooms, looking at the connections we create with total strangers as we go about our daily lives. Hana speaks with guest host Talia Schlanger about the book and the power of those seemingly mundane interactions. Plus, she reads a poem from the collection.

Today is Thursday the 12th of Muharram, 1446 Hijrah. Yesterday I read a very disturbing news coming from Oman that a masjid in Oman was being bombed and took the lives of nine people. Apparently according to the news report, Daesh or IS claimed responsibility for the bombing and the masjid is said to belong to a Shia community in Oman and they were observing the mourning of the day of Ashura when the bombing happened. Now this is very sad because this is against the teaching of Islam.We need to look beyond sectarian divisions within the Islamic Ummah. Rasul salallahu alayhi wa sallam said,من صلى صلاتنا واستقبل قبلتنا وأكل ذبيحتنا فذلك المسلم“Those who pray our prayers and face our Qibla and eat from our slaughter, that is a Muslim that is under the protection of Allah and under the protection of Rasul salallahu alayhi wa sallam.”So this barbaric act of killing innocent lives, taking innocent lives just because of sectarian differences is haram. This is a great sin.Now are Shia Muslims? The answer according to this hadith is absolutely clear. Yes they are Muslims. We differ in certain things with them. I'm a Sunni, I'm a Shafi'i Sunni in terms of my theology. I grew up and learning Sunni creed from the Ash'ari school of Aqeedah, Shafi'i school of law and Ghazali school of Tasawwuf.Yet it doesn't mean that I would call our Shi'i brothers and sisters Kafir. We disagree. I disagree strongly with many of their teachings, with the way they view the Sahaba but that doesn't make them Kafir. That doesn't exclude them from the fold of Islam. Rasul salallahu alayhi wa sallam gave us this clear criteria. They pray like we pray. Look at the way our Shia brothers and sisters pray. Yes there may be some minor differences and those minor differences fall within Fiqh differences but by and large it's the same prayers and they face the same Qibla. It's not like they face some other places. It's not like they face Karbala in prayers. They face Masjid al-Haram. They face the Kaaba like you and I, like the rest of the Ummah and they eat from our slaughter. That makes them a Muslim. That makes them fall under the protection of Allah and the protection of Rasulullah salallahu alayhi wa sallam.IS  you did this. You're going to answer before Allah and Rasul salallahu alayhi wa sallam in Yawm al-Qiyamah. So we have to rise beyond these petty differences. We can disagree but there are matters bigger concern, matters of bigger concerns to the Ummah that we will need to unite. For instance the matter of Palestine. The matter of Palestine we are one Ummah and we see realistically in the world today politically the only countries that are taking real actions beyond words, beyond rhetoric are the Shi'i countries. We see what the Houthi in Yemen are doing and the impact they have on the economy of Israel.Now just because they do that doesn't mean that we condone, we acknowledge their teachings as the correct teaching. We can defer yet they are still Muslims. We can strongly disagree yet they are still Muslims. We believe that they are Muslims but their teachings in some matters within Islam is wrong. We can sit down and discuss academically with regards to this matter but it should never lead to bloodshed. It should never lead to death.May Allah have mercy upon those who were killed at this Masjid in Oman. My condolences to the people of Oman. Oman is a peaceful country. People of Oman are beautiful souls, very peaceful, peace loving people. May Allah protect all of you and Allah bless Oman and her people. May Allah shower mercy upon those souls that have departed and may Allah destroy IS, may Allah destroy Daesh. Get full access to Be Quranic at bequranic.substack.com/subscribe

The Consensus on Marriage Between Muslim Women and Non-Muslim Men The issue of whether Muslim women can marry non-Muslim men has been subject to debate in recent times. However, there has been a binding consensus among Islamic scholars since the time of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that such marriages are impermissible. This consensus is rooted in the understanding of Islamic law and the principles that govern marital relations. This view is grounded in various Quranic verses and Hadith, such as: • “Do not marry polytheistic women until they believe” (Quran 2:221).• “And do not marry the polytheistic men to your women until they believe” (Quran 2:221).• “Then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four” (Quran 4:3), which implies that marriage should be within the bounds of faith. The Role of Scholars and Usul al-Fiqh To navigate complex issues like marriage and other contemporary challenges, it is crucial to rely on scholars well-versed in Usul al-Fiqh, the principles of Islamic jurisprudence. Usul al-Fiqh involves: 1. Determining What Constitutes Evidence: Not every claim can be supported as valid evidence in Sharia. As Imam Al-Baydawi stated, “Not everything can be an evidence in Sharia.”2. Proper Utilization of Evidence: Knowing how to apply evidence correctly. “The principle in private parts is prohibition; if both permissibility and prohibition are encountered in a woman, prohibition prevails” (Imam al-Suyuti).3. Scholarly Qualifications: Ensuring that those who engage in Islamic legal discussions have the necessary academic and practical training. “The conditions of the person who can engage in Islamic law must be met” (Imam Al-Baydawi). Refuting Modern Arguments for Permissibility Some modern scholars argue that there is no explicit evidence in the Quran and Sunnah against marriages between Muslim women and non-Muslim men, thereby claiming such marriages are permissible. This argument relies on the principle of Istishab, which presumes continuity unless there is evidence to the contrary. However, this principle is misapplied in this context. Understanding Istishab and Its Application Istishab means assuming that a ruling continues to apply unless there is clear evidence to change it. In the context of marriage, the default state is that marital relations are haram without a valid marriage contract (nikah). This principle places the burden of proof on those claiming permissibility. They must provide clear evidence from the Quran and Sunnah to justify their stance. • Imam al-Shafi'i: “All private parts are prohibited for everyone under all circumstances, except when allowed by marriage or ownership.”• Principle of Istishab: “Seeking evidence to prove a point without evidence is rejected.” Legal Foundations in Islamic Marriage 1. Presumption of Prohibition: The foundational state of marital relations is one of prohibition unless there is a valid contract.• Imam al-Shafi'i: “The foundational relationship between non-marital people is that they are not allowed to have a physical relationship.”2. Burden of Proof: It is not sufficient to claim permissibility without evidence. The absence of explicit prohibition does not automatically translate to permissibility.• Imam al-Qarafi al-Maliki: “The foundation of sexual relations, the default of other people's property, and the default of other people's wealth is haram unless there is an aqid.” Conclusion: Adherence to Traditional Scholarship In conclusion, the long-standing consensus against marriages between Muslim women and non-Muslim men is well-founded in Islamic jurisprudence. Scholars trained in Usul al-Fiqh provide the necessary framework to understand and navigate such issues. Young Muslims are encouraged to invest their time in learning their faith deeply, adhering to traditional scholarship, and understanding the principles that guide Islamic law. By focusing on these principles and maintaining a strong educational foundation, Muslims can ensure that their practices align with the core teachings of Islam and continue to uphold the integrity of their religious traditions.

We often hear from Muslims that our ummah suffers from disunity on a local, national, and international level. Slight differences of opinion can cause major divisions. Our countries remain deeply divided between themselves and there is an impression that has consolidated that we will not be able to recover our position. This situation has led to despondency. Helplessness and in the extreme an acceptance of the status quo. But is this written? Is there anything we can do about this parlous situation? Have we come to the end of Muslim civilisation and are we now merely managing decline? Are we waiting for the Mahdi, a leader who will change our situation? Or is there anything we can do about our predicament? To help us understand the issues of unity and division from an Islamic perspective we have invited Shaykh Dr. Shuayb Wani. Dr. Shuayb Wani is the Director and Co-Founder of the Dār Al ‘Ilm Institute. He grew up in Indian-occupied Kashmir and started his quest to learn Islamic ‘Ulūm during his schooling years. He completed his foundational Islāmic Studies in India, and Al-Azhar University, Egypt. He devoted 10 years studying advanced Islāmic Studies specializing in Usūl al-Fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence) at the International Islamic University, Malaysia. He holds a Ph.D in : “The Legal Thought of Imam al-Shafi‘i” which was published in 2021. He has 20 years experience of teaching Islamic ulum. He lives in Istanbul with his family.

In this episode, Hana and Chetna talk about: Resistance and activism through frizzy hair Creating new worlds through visual art; drawing what we want to see in the world, from cool fashion to authentic femininity Clothes as wearable art yet co-opted by capitalism that make it seem frivolous The paradox in Hana's art between colorful and vibrant and dark and creepy The power in what is deemed as “ugly” Showing the unpleasant parts of humanness, like squeezing zits! Hana's fear of clowns and drawing jester archetypes Going to various phases of mediums in art-making Hana's love for Shakespeare and the value of the wise fool  Making art that scares us is channeling our disruptor/tricker energy How Hana's has drawn from her mental illness in her drawing, from literal depictions to more dualistic expressions The paradox and appeal of upbeat or vibrant art that's also speaking to deeper issues like addiction and mental illness The importance of art that reflects multiple realities Creating art for yourself to validate your own experience and being in community with your own art  The acceptance that not everyone is going to be a masterpiece, it's okay to experiment with different artistic mediums or processes The struggle of performativity on social media The proverb of “if a tree falls and no one hears it, did it really fall” and how it applies to our art-making practice Recognizing that we are being witnessed by more than the human world, but by the trees and bees and life all around us, including ancestors, spirit, etc… and that can be enough! The significance of art that takes a long time to create, unlike AI art, it's more than “content creation” Sharing from a place of safety and generativity, versus pressure or obligation Being mindful with how we consume art, and how we're consumed from to avoid being extractive in how we consume art or expect from artists Letting ourselves have an eb and flow with our mediums, without adhering to “consistency” if that isn't happening Francisco Goya as a muse in shifting our vibe and energy in our works as artists Cycling through styles and mediums of art-making is normal and natural The creativity within you is worthy to be expressed and freed!
