What kind of host is Shaikh Ghias? And what kind of questions were those? As a host, it is your responsibility to allow the guest to answer the questions. The guy was looking for controversy and he got it in the shape of a Burger meme. I do not know how Syed Muzamil Hasan Zaidi was able to endure those questions, especially the final question. The show could have ended smoothly, but the next guy just wanted to insult him.
I listened to the entire podcast and, to clarify, I respect Syed Muzamil Hasan Zaidi and usually listen to his podcasts whenever I can. People have been criticizing the host’s behavior (I did know Ghias as a standup comedian as I attended his skid at Olomopolo before, but this was my first time listening to him) and have been messaging me to ask for my feedback, so here it is. It’s only the surviving ‘certainty’ in the faith of Islam that removes ‘doubts’ created by Postmodern Liberals of the Left in Muslims’ minds and not the other way around when it comes to neocolonialism.
There are three types of people; one who you advise with hard evidence and objective Divine Truth, he takes it and follows – that is a man who’s modest and trustworthy and you go easy on him; another who seemingly accepts but keeps oscillating between right and wrong – for he’s a borderline hypocrite; the third type rejects the truth and looks down on others – because he’s either an arrogant or an ignorant – you leave him to his state of misery because you’re not his manager or a judge and because there is no compulsion in the matters that Muslim scholars have already reached their consensus or ijma. Our job is to just inform them of what’s right and that which is wrong precisely according to the Scripture and the Prophetic ways.
Is Syed Muzammil Hasan Zaidi considered elite?
Lastly, the middle-class topic that has gone viral is often overrated in every story. The definition of the middle class is subjective and can vary from person to person, and nobody has the right to question anyone else’s class status. The transition from middle class to upper class is a journey that can be a significant achievement for the person experiencing it, but this topic has been diluted so much that if anyone genuinely talks about this transition, it is often considered underrated or a “topi-drama” (not targeting anyone specifically). In conclusion, we should accept these types of conversations and society needs to hear both sides (unfiltered) so that we can make our own judgments about what is correct.
