Contextual interpretation of fighting verses
“Moulana, you always say that we have to see the verses in the context of their background when they were revealed. And therefore those verses like fighting and kafir related were meant for the time when they were revealed. When should we apply them today?”Asked by Ahmed, Mumbai

1:10:31Moulana, agla sawal Mumbai se kiya hai Ahmed Sahab ne, aur unhon ne likha hai: "Moulana you always say that we have to see the verses in the context of its background when they were revealed. And therefore those verses like fighting aur kafir related were meant for the time when they were revealed. When we say this to people, they tell us what is the basis of your argument that those verses were not meant for future.
1:11:04They say that all the verses were meant for future as well. Moulana how can we address such issues on a rational level?" To main to jawab de diya aap ko ke sare Islam is cards mante hain ke qital ki ayat hai woh hasan li-zati nahin, hasan li-ghairi hai. Hasan hasan li-zati hain, hasan li-ghairi nahin. Yani hasan li-zati aur hasan li-ghairi ka matlab yeh hai ke violence fateh ka violence ke liye nahin hai, kisi positive end ke liye hai. Woh positive end nahin ho to ladai bhi nahin ki jayegi. Yeh to sare log mante hain, Yeh sare log mante hain.
1:11:48Na mare to yani bohat ajeeb baat hai ke agar koi na mare, us ko kiya khaas ladna ban raha hai? Laren, maren hain aap. Yeh Islam hai, yeh koi maqsad nahin hai, koi koi koi positive end nahin hai. Khwah makhwah badhen, lad ke maren. Yeh koi Islam hua? Quran mein dekhen ayat hai ke qaatiloohum hatta la tuqro fitnatun
1:12:16Jab fitna ko khatam karne ke liye laro. Fitna nahin to ladai bhi nahin. Yani fitna khatam karne ke liye laro. To ab fitna kahan hai? Fitna ka matlab hai religious persecution. Jab religious persecution nahin to ladna kis liye? Jab religious persecution nahin hai to ladna kis liye? Dekhen is mein koi. Yani yani kuch cheezon ke bare mein yahi ulma mante bhi hain. Misal ke taur par dekhiye Quran mein hai ke a'idduhum masaddatakum bil quwwati yani quwwat quwwat faraham karo. Apne rival jo tumhare hain un ke liye muqable mein quwwat faraham karo. Quwwat ka matlab kiya hai?
1:13:10hadis mein aata hai ke ala ind al quwwata aram ke sun lo ke quwwat se murad hai teer marna. to kya aap aaj koi muslim state teer kaman ki fauj banayegi? koi banati hai? koi koi fauj? koi muslim fauj? koi dunya mein koi muslim mulk aisa hai jo kahe ke adad quwwat ka matlab hai teer kaman par raho?
1:13:41yahan par sab logon ne, sare ulama ne yeh maan liya ke teer kaman ki baat is zamane ke lihaz se thi, aaj ke lihaz se nahi hai. aaj adad quwwat aaj ke lihaz se hoga. aaj jo jis cheez ko quwwat samjha, jo cheez quwwat hogi, us ke lihaz se hum tayari karenge. to yahan to log mante hain, log adad quwwat ka matlab teer kaman nahi hai. aur doosre cheezon mein nahi mante. yeh to bilkul hi mein samajhta hoon ke sare log jo double standard ho gaye hain. sab ke sab double standard ho gaye hain.
1:14:19maulana, agla sawal dilli se kya hai mahmood asim sahib ne, aur unhone likha hai: hindustan mein jo communal violence ka issue hai, us se niptne ke liye quran ka application kya hai?
