Jihad al Nafs: Struggle agains the Self-Knowledge vs Wealth -Ghazzali Book of knowledge -Class 14/14

This long lecture revolves around true knowledge, true intellect, and true spirituality in Islam, distinguishing between outward information and inward transformation. Sheikh explains that real scholars of the Akhirah are recognized by their concern for the heart, sincerity, vigilance over the soul, and preparation for meeting Allah, not by fame or argumentation. Central to this path is murakaba and ihsan: living with awareness that Allah sees you at all times. Consistency in small daily practices like Quran, adhkar, and a stable wird is emphasized over extreme or irregular worship. A major theme is jihad al nafs, the inner struggle that must come before any outward struggle. Without purifying the self, religious action becomes dangerous and leads to arrogance, misuse of religion, and harm to faith. The lecture strongly contrasts knowledge and wealth, quoting Sayyiduna Ali that knowledge protects you, grows when shared, and leaves lasting benefit, while wealth must be guarded and perishes. People fall into three categories: scholars who nurture inward and outward growth, sincere seekers on the path, or heedless masses easily misled. There is a deep warning against untrained engagement with hadith, stressing that hadith collections were written for scholars, not laypeople. Without madhhab, method, and context, people become confused, extremist, or reckless in declaring halal and haram. The speaker defends scholarly disagreement, explains bidah categorization, and addresses Mawlid as a matter of valid scholarly difference rather than disbelief. A large portion explains the Islamic concept of intellect (aql). True intellect is not mere debate or cleverness, but a light that leads to right action. It has levels: basic rational capacity, distinguishing possible and impossible, experiential learning, and finally wisdom. Intellect and revelation must work together; separating them leads to misguidance. The lecture criticizes modern excesses: fatwa inflation, obsession with argumentation, neglect of the heart, youth exposed to unchecked desires, and societies that normalize moral chaos. It calls this a form of spiritual Alzheimer’s, forgetting Allah despite being alive. The conclusion returns to remembrance, humility, compassion for humanity, respect for scholars, and seeking beneficial knowledge that leads to action, ending with extensive supplication for guidance, mercy, and restoration of balance to the Ummah. - We are dedicated to bringing you the best of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah knowledge every single day for our Ummah.
