Uthman Farooq is a honourable man. May Allah make him even better.

A few months ago I came across this video, I inattentively watched a few minutes here and there and came to the conclusion that Ustad Faris was being too extreme and just hating. Now that I’ve actually sat down, been honest with myself and attentively watched the video without jumping about, with sincerity, I can say that I regret my prior foolishness and completely accept the facts that Ustad Faris has brought here.
May Allah accept it from him and keep him sincere, Ameen.

The emphasis on quality over quantity in the context of Islam aligns with the Quranic and prophetic teachings that highlight the value of sincerity, good character, and strong faith over mere numbers. A smaller group of committed, knowledgeable, and morally upright Muslims can have a more profound impact on society than a large group lacking those qualities.

Riyad as-Salihin 668

Wa'il bin Hujr (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Salamah bin Yazid Al-Ju'f (May Allah be pleased with him) asked Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): "O Prophet of Allah! Tell us, what you command us to do if there arises over us rulers who demand of us what is due to them and refuse us what is due to us." Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) turned away from him, but he repeated the same question. Thereupon Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Listen to them and obey them. They are responsible for their obligations and you are accountable for yours."

[Muslim].

وعن أبى هنيدة وائل بن حجر رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ سأل سلمة بن يزيد الجعفي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، فقال‏:‏ يا نبي الله، أرأيت إن قامت علينا امراء يسألونا حقهم، ويمنعونا حقنا، فما تأمرنا‏؟‏ فأعرض عنه، ثم سأله، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم “اسمعوا وأطيعو؛ فإنما عليهما حملوا، وعليكم ماحملتم” ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.

30:40 اعتقد هذا اللي نفتقده هالايام، الولاء والبراء. احسان الظن بالدعاة فقط لأنهم دعاة خطأ كبير، لان الكثير منهم يُفرق اكثر من ما يجمع. بارك الله فيك اخوي فارس

my islamic age is a young one, this will be my 3rd ramadan, inshallah. Alhamdulillah. this all brings me great confusion, seeing many of the brothers I heard about the truth from in my early days, turn on each other like snakes in a pit.. I am not educated enough to discern between these disputes on my own. i hope this is all settled between all the brothers everywhere and that the false brothers are clearly exposed, inshallah. i love you all. as salammu aalaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu

Unfortunately we have a problem with listening and not learning and the biggest I find is blind following it’s a big sickness in the ummah

I took many knowledege from him. Sharh Zad al-Mustqani,. May Allah forgives him and guide him. Thanks for clarify this. My loyalty always to the Quran and Sunnah with understanding of Salaf. May Allah bless you and reward you Ustadh Faris. Make dua to muslims in Malaysia. Love from Malaysia.

He has a masters in hadith. How can you say that he should not give dawa? If he can't with his credentials than who can? You made a clear mistake by this statement because nobody is perfect

Crystal clear !
جزاكم الله خيرا وبارك الله فيكم

Excellent advice Shaik thanks may Allah reward you greatly.

Jazakumullahu khayra for clarifying this for people

Remember, ya ikhwah. We're not attaching ourselves to those duats due to their personalities or their popularities in the dawah scenes, but rather the messages that they're spread. Once they're deviated from the Qur'an and the Sunnah and they haven't repented from their deviated ways, then we're detaching ourselves from them. Don't do the same mistakes that those deviant sects loves to do by doing ghulluw and even worse than that which is doing taqlid to their teachers despite their misguided ways and acting like they can't do no wrong despite being ordinary human beings like all of us

A lot of people in ybe dawag scene get affected by this, May allah guide Brother uthman farooq and us

Sheik uthman is an honorable man

Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
Get used to say “in sha Allah” brother

Me As a non Arab that knows Arabic, I can say that his "mistakes" are really understandable coz these "wrong" words he's using  actually do exist in arabic and have similar meaning on what it should be. So it shows that he really knows what he was talking about but get mixed somehow with other words as a human error, but it doesn't mean he doesn't know what he's doing. Allah know best. May Allah protect us always.

This clarification was important. A lot of people on the fence about him. May Allah guide him. Ultimately our aim is of rectification and to warn people until he corrects himself inshallah.

May allah increase your knowledge...we hope sheik usthman will see this video and give a response ..if he admites and return from his  mistakes we respect him for sake of allah or else we have restrict ourselves and others from watching his videos for sake of our aqeeda... we hope for him and us guidance from allah

BaarakAllahou fiek for this !❤
