His answer, in his own words
53:19
maulana agla sawal bangalore se hai. abrar mudassir sahab ne bheja hai. unhon ne likha hai: "maulana kuch log aisa samajhte hain ke sabr aur taqwa se jo best milne wala hai woh hai siyasi kamyabi. maulana kya aisa samajhna sahi hai?" yeh to jhoot hai. jhoot mere paas koi lafz nahin is ke liye. jhoot main is liye keh raha hoon ke quran ki koi ayat pesh karen yeh log. quran ki koi ayat pesh karen. main jo kuch bhi kehta hoon sab quran aur hadith ko le kar kehta hoon. koi baat aisi nahin kehta main jo quran aur hadith pe base karti ho.
54:02
yeh to khud sakhta dawayi hai. to jab tak woh apne dawe mein quran o hadith mein pesh karen tab to woh allah ke nazdeek jhoote hain. kuch nahin koi sar na paye is baat ka. bilkul ek base le is baat se main sochta hoon is ko. maulana agla. yaad rakhiye deen mein ek baat aap samajh li jiye. ek hadith hai: "man ahdatha fi amrina hadha ma lais minhu fa huwa raddun." jo aadmi hamare deen mein yani allah ke deen mein koi aisi baat nikale jo is mein na ho. na ho ke maani hain quran o hadith se saabit na ho to woh rejected hai. woh rejected ki jayegi.
54:51
to yeh aisi baaten hain yeh sab nikal rakhi hain logon ne. jin logon ko siyasi hungama karna hai aur sadkon par dhoom machana hai woh aisi hadithon aisi baaten karte hain. yeh to yeh to bidat se bhi buri cheez koi hai. dekhen ek hai bidat jis mein ke sirf naya pan hai. lekin koi kisi ko aap takleef nahin pahuncha rahe hain. ek naya kaam aap kar rahe hain lekin koi takleef nahin pahuncha rahe hain. woh bidat hai. lekin aisi bidat jis mein aap logon ko maaren, suicide bombing karen aur aur aur nafraten phailayen woh to yani worse than bidat hai woh.
55:32
isi mein yeh log mubtala hain. worse than bidat. aap dekhen ke aaj kal muslim countries mein kya ho raha hai. isi tasawwur ko le kar ke ladai lad rahe hain. pachas pachas saal beet jaate hain ladai chale ja rahe hain. kisi ko yeh tofeeq nahin hoti ke ailan kare ke we were wrong. yeh koi kehta nahin. mein to bohat sakht is mamle mein hoon. molana agla sawal lene se pehle ek comment parhein ge jo molana abdul basit umri ne bheja hai doha qatar se.
