Battle of the Da'ees

To be honest, I don't follow most of the YouTube channels. Every once in a while, something will come into my attention and that will cause me to sort of visit that online neighborhood briefly, but I usually don't stay very long. For me, I don't find most of it very compelling or informative and I concluded long time ago that I'm not really the audience that they're playing to. But I will say this, there sure is a lot of righteous indignation out there with people calling each other hypocrites, detrimental to the dawah, you know, cowards, dishonorable, on and on and on, deviant. Sometimes it's like watching a promo for a WWE match or something, and the debate challenges.

Yeah, Allah. Enough with the debates already. But let me tell you a phrase because I know that a lot of the people who subscribe to my channel also subscribe to these channels. So this is a phrase that you are not gonna hear very much on these channels. But it's important to remember that this phrase exists.

It's really magical. And you can use it as an alternative to calling someone deviant, saying that someone is detrimental to the dawah, saying that someone is a hypocrite, or, you know, saying that whatever they're calling to is basically like calling to the gates of hell. You don't have to call them misguided. You don't have to say that they are leading people astray. All you have to say is this, I disagree.

That's it. It doesn't need an hour long tirade cautioning your viewers to shun this or that or to inflate this or that opinion or views into the status of being some sort of catastrophic blow against the foundations of Islam itself, just say, I disagree. That's what we used to do. You just say, disagree with you on that topic. On that opinion that you hold, I disagree with you.

Simple. Move on. It doesn't need all the drama.
