Andrew Tate's View on Islam
My brother asked me what my opinion is regarding the Andrew Tate video that went around a couple of weeks ago where he was saying arguably positive things about Islam and how Muslims were so happy about that. First of all, let me just say this. Rasulullah said that if the dunya had the value of like a mosquito in the sight of Allah, he wouldn't let a non believer have a sip of water. Andrew Tate has a net worth of around $10,000,000. What you can learn from that is the uselessness and worthlessness of the dunya.
Someone like this can have that kind of wealth and enjoy the kind of comfortable privileged lifestyle that he has when as a man, as a person of character, he's empty. I've never had a moment in my life where I asked myself, I wonder what Andrew Tate thinks. With regards to his opinion about Islam and how the position of women and the relationships between men and women in Islam in the Muslim world, first of all, he's an outsider, but it's useful in terms of exposing the lie that some Muslim red pill type, Muslim manosphere type people are trying to propagate within the ummah that our men are pathetic, our men are ruined, our women are all feminists, and the all of the illness and the sickness from the West is infecting the Muslims. It's not. Non Muslims look at Muslims and see Muslim men and see that that's where masculinity is in the world today.
It's with the Muslims. That's where real masculinity can be found is in this ummah. So it kind of undermined the message of certain Muslim manosphere people who are trying to propagate this slanderous message about the men of this ummah and the women of this ummah. There may be a small segment of our population that is influenced by them, but that's always been the case. And it never really gains any headway because we are inoculated against it by Quran and Sunnah.
And Quran and Sunnah is stronger than any ideas that they wanna come up with. Any misguidance that they come up with, guidance is stronger. The Muslims are not on the verge of ruin. Anyone who's ever predicted that has always been wrong, and they always will be. So it was useful in terms of that.
It was in it was useful in terms of undermining this, false message that some Muslims in the Muslim manosphere try to propagate about the men and women of this ummah that dishonors them and slanders them. So it was useful for that. Other otherwise, his impression of Islam is not particularly important to me. It shouldn't be important to you. If he comes to Islam, it doesn't benefit Islam, benefits him, and he needs it.
As things stand, he's not headed for a good destination. And here it's important to point out. If any of you Muslims out there are looking at someone like Andrew Tate and thinking, that's a real man. Real men don't go to hell. Real men don't go to hell.
