This is a misconstrued by certain sinister groups to discredit this great sheikh. You are technically calling him a mushrik for preaching shirk which is absolute false. Stop backbiting the scholars
Is that Hamza Yusuf in your avatar? You consider Hamza Yusuf as one of the scholars?
Would you happen to be a Sufi? I ask because maybe you yourself are a Sufi and a follower of Hamza Yusuf (to the extent that you have a Hamza Yusuf avatar), so you're not being entirely objective.
Do you believe that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) can hear us in the grave? Can we have a conversation with him while he is in the grave? If we call upon Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and we talk to him about our day and what's on our minds, can he hear us?
As for Hamza Yusuf..... "
When Sheik Hamza Yusuf was summoned to the White House after the World Trade Center attack, he brought President George W. Bush two books. The first was a Qur'an, bristling with Post-It notes marking key verses. The second was "Thunder in the Sky," a book on the art of war by a first-century Chinese Taoist....
Among young Western progressive Muslims, he's fast becoming the most prominent Islamic cleric of his generation."

I mean.... so apparently this was the guy they chose to send to the White House to meet with George Bush........ that's who you want to follow?
The man who advised Bush
LONDON: A few days ago, for reasons that remain rather unclear, the FBI decided to pay a call on the home of Hamza Yusuf. “He isn’t home,” said his wife. ;He’s with the president.;....Then, after joining in with God Save America, Yusuf stood outside the White house..."

so this guy's hanging out at the White House with George Bush, singing "God Save America".........'
'If you hate the west, emigrate to a Muslim country'
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2001/oct/08/religion.uk
denouncing those West-haters.......
It's time for Muslim Americans to condemn Hamza Yusuf
https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/o...cans-condemn-hamza-yusuf-190715130254222.html
"Hamza Yusuf, once
dubbed the most 'influential Muslim scholar in the Western world'".... just that is enough that I would want to stay away from him
"In September 2001, shortly after the terror attacks on the US, he was the sole Muslim representative in a delegation of religious leaders who met President George W Bush and endorsed his decision to launch a military campaign against terrorism - ie, his "war on terror".
wow so he wasn't even in one in a set of Muslims..... he was
the Muslim chose to meet with Bush..... wow.......
"When Trump was elected president in 2016, following a divisive, Islamophobic, misogynistic and racist election campaign, Yusuf discouraged people from protesting against an administration that was elected on a promise to erode the rights of the most vulnerable.
'We have too much work to do, not protesting, not lighting fires, not saying, 'Trump is not my president,'" he
wrote on his website in November 2016. 'He is, and that is how our system works: by accepting the results and moving on.'
.......
"Then, a month later, black Muslims came face to face with Yusuf's
misplaced loyalties, when he declared at a conference that the US is "one of the least racist countries" and tried to use the racist trope of 'black-on-black crime' to convince Muslims not to join forces with the Black Lives Matter movement."
.........
"Last week, Secretary of State and top Islamophobe Mike Pompeo
announced the formation of the Commission on Unalienable Rights... it was announced that Yusuf will also be a member of the commission."
what kind of vague nonsense is that- Commission on Unalienable Rights??????? what a ridiculous, propaganda-sounding name........ but anyways..... they make their Commission on Unalienable Rights, whatever that means, announced by anti-Muslim Zionist Mike Pompeo...... and Hamza Yusuf gets invited........
look, man I'm not against white people simply for being white people....... but the majority of the human race have very good reasons to be a little wary when it comes to white people in general...... if we have a Muslim brother who just happens to be white but doesn't have the negative qualities often found when dealing with white people, who is concerned with non-white people just as he is concerned with white people and who doesn't have a superiority complex and a thinly-veiled desire to be some sort of colonial overlord and force Western ideals on brown people... okay..... but this guy seems like.... well I mean he just seems like..... kind of what I expect from white people...... I mean, we shouldn't just be against someone simply for being white..... but... he's a white guy.... who just happens to think racism isn't an issue........ I mean...... we should be careful when it comes to.... certain white people..... and by "certain white people" I mean the vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast,vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast majority of white people
