#13 The “Don’t Judge me” fallacy; harms of public sins; steps to changing culture; positive social pressure

There’s a reason why public sins or making sins public is regarded as such an evil in the deen (Hadith below). Positive social pressure; Public Sins; steps to changing culture. What is positive social pressure and why is it important to embrace it to create a culture of strong morals and ethics? How this was prevalent in the past and how it at least partly explains the different “practising” levels of Muslim communities. This Episode focuses on the societal implications of sinning in public and the “Don’t judge me” attitude. Why do some people care so much about this 3 letter word? I try to explain the ramifications of this utterance. As always, this message is for the deeper thinkers who want to delve beyond the surface level. This isn’t “optimized” for views. If you benefit please make dua. إنشاءالله – Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Everyone from my nation will be forgiven except those who sin in public. Among them is a man who commits an evil deed in the night that Allah has hidden for him, then in the morning he says: O people, I have committed this sin! His Lord had hidden it during the night but in the morning he reveals what Allah has hidden.” Source: Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 5721, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2990 Obviously, in Islam, we remind each other and judge by what is apparent. However, that doesn’t seem to resonate with the “Don’t juj me” crowd. In this video, i try to tackle the fortress from within, i.e. by explaining how one “judges” when one accuses someone of “judging”. ????. Some degree of levity may be perceptible. How is this linked to the aim of this project? It is intended to help eradicate a mindset which is quite pervasive on Muslim social media and destroys the culture of social accountability and helps spread haramic behaviour. On the other hand, positive or Islamic actions are “judged” as being ill-intentioned or for showing off and are then suppressed. A recipe for moral turpitude.
