My name is Monkey D. Luffy, and I'm going to be king of the not pirates. Instead, I'm going to be king of the bounty hunters, yes. That is what I have decided. Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything One Piece, and today we have what I promise is a very fun video. Because recently I went something on a mini rant on this channel about the fact that absolutely no relevant bounty hunters actually exist in One Piece, so you know what? We're gonna change that. Because we shall be rewriting history somewhat by changing Luffy's dream into becoming a world-renowned bounty hunter. And more specifically, we're going to see exactly how much Luffy could have made on this career path. Now there are going to be some very basic rules for the sake of this video, starting with rule number the first. Luffy will be following the exact same trajectory throughout the series, visiting all of the same locations and such that he does as a pirate in the same order as well. Rule number the second, every time he defeats an opponent with an active bounty, that number will then be added to Luffy's world government-issued bank account. Thirdly, for Luffy to collect a bounty, he needs to have been the person to deliver the final blow to his target, which means that team efforts do count, but only when Luffy puts in the required work, which sometimes happens and sometimes does not. Fourth, straw hat pirate members in this scenario will all become bounty hunters alongside Luffy, so we're not going to be doing things like trying to cash in Robin and Brook, both of whom had established bounties when they joined the crew. And our final rule is that, where reasonable, Luffy will attempt to claim the bounties of pirates he encounters. Because there's a lot of situations in the series where Luffy becomes friendly with fellow pirates, but that would not be the case as a bounty hunter. And if he has the opportunity to claim their bounties, then he most certainly will. Now to figure out where we're going to be starting this exploration, we are going to have a quick round of bounty trivia, a very simple minigame where I'm going to ask you a multiple choice question, and then you're going to answer it. Now should you answer incorrectly, then your punishment will be to subscribe to the Grand Line Review, which will also result in consistent injections of one piece culture delivered straight into your YouTube feed. And if you do answer correctly, then you may have this bounty candy, which is like a coconut covered in delicious chumplet. But here is our trivia question, which of the following antagonists has the lowest bounty? Is it A, Iron Mace Alveda, B, Captain Blue Jam, or C, Higuma the Bear? What will it be? A, B, or C? Please do select your choice now and we shall reveal the answer in 3, 2, 1, and bam! It is Iron Mace Alveda, with a pitiful 5 million berries compared to Higuma's 8 million, and Blue Jam's rather surprising 14.3 million. So if you selected either Higuma or Blue Jam, then you know the thing to do and please do say hi in the comments below if you are a new member of the Grand Fleet, welcome. But Alveda is most certainly where we are going to begin. This is Luffy's first opponent who meets all of our wonderful bounty hunting criteria. And I suppose, in our canon, Luffy set out from Fusha Village, got shipwrecked, and ended up exactly where he wanted to be. With one fist buried deep in Alveda's gut, whilst the other fist was holding that sweet sweet 5 million berry reward. And to be clear, I did say that 5 million berries was pretty low, which it is compared to our top pirating standards anyway, but that's about 5,000 US dollars. So not at all a bad day's work for our bounty hunting Luffy. And I imagine he would cash that bounty in pretty immediately at Shells Town, where Luffy would also recruit Zoro, and the two would become something of a bounty hunting duo, the inception of the Straw Hat Hunters. And these two would then put their skills to use in Orange Town, where very notably Luffy does defeat Moji and Richie. However, unfortunately also notably, neither of them were ever assigned bounty by the World Government. What we do have though is Moji's captain, Buggy the Clown, who Luffy did not technically defeat alone. However, as per our rules, he did deliver the final blow to the Clownman, as well as kicked him in the balls on one occasion, which is hilarious, but ouch. And in any case, this will be an extra 15 million berries, straight into the old Monkey D Bank. Now something I should note at this stage is that we're going to be changing continuity here a bit, because in order to have Luffy claim Buggy and Elvira's bounties, then we need to assume that they are handed over to the Marines, in which case they will not be reappearing in the future, because they have been caught and imprisoned. Something that will become quite relevant for these two, as well as some other characters going forward. Next up we have Syrup Village though, where the Straw Hat Hunters now including one Nami, stumble into some cat related shenaniganry. Here we're really only focused on the captain though, Kuro, because his defeat is going to own Luffy an extra 16 million delicious berry things. Because despite the fact that Kuro himself had dreams of retirement, his bounty remained on active duty, unfortunate for him. Now all of that hard work has made us quite hungry, so it's time to stop off at Baratier, where we are going to encounter a truly delicious Don Krieg. Oh no. Delicious in terms of bounty I suppose, not in terms of his is everything else. Although what do you think a Don Krieg tastes like? Because I reckon it's like a mixture of sea salt and disappointment. Krieg is quite handily dispatched though, not the easiest missions, but Luffy prevails nonetheless, adding an extra 17 million berries into his ever expanding Gomu Gomu Wallet. And I would assume that some of that 17 million would be spent on further food items from Baratier, in order to embark on our next mission to our long path. And whilst we do find our toughest battle yet, Luffy's bounty hunting prowess is certainly not going to fail against our long, and we will collect a relatively easy 20 million berries from this encounter. Much of which would assumedly be cashed in at Logtown, where Luffy has no problems whatsoever, because he isn't a pirate, thus not attracting the attention of Smoker, nor do Buggy and Alveda return to cause chaos, because they have long since been dealt with. It really is more of a brief touristy stop for Luffy to view the gallows of Goldie Roger, and just imagine what it would be like to catch a man with such a massive throbbing bounty. And that's why we're heading into the Grand Line I suppose, because despite the fact that in a mere few days we've earned the equivalent of 73,000 US dollars, East Blue is just not really worth the effort anymore. There is much more money to be made in the Grand Line. Although we do have to wait until Whiskey Peak to make much, Reverse Mountain is very uneventful for a bounty hunter, considering that neither Mr. Nine nor Ms. Wednesday had bounties assigned to them, tisk, tisk, what failures? However, on Whiskey Peak, after a slight scuffle with fellow bounty hunter Zorro, Luffy is responsible for defeating Ms. Valentine, who held a bounty of 7.5 million berries. However, unfortunately, we can't ward Luffy with Mr. Five's bounty, because he was dispatched by the aforementioned Zorro. Next up on Little Garden though, Luffy is going to hit his biggest score to date by kicking Mr. Three in the face thing and earning a bounty of 24 million berries, which brings his career total past the 100 million berry mark. Very impressive, Mr. Luffy. Here we do have something of a fateful twist though. Also on Little Garden are the giants Dory and Brogy, who together possess a combined ancient, yet still active bounty of 200 million berries. Around twice what Luffy has managed to earn thus far on his journey, so that sounds mighty appealing, yes, yes. And while I don't think that Luffy would have been able to defeat them in a fair fight at this stage anyway, what happened on Little Garden was not at all fair, and Brogy even credited Luffy with being responsible for saving their lives. However, bounty hunter Luffy is going to see this as the score of a lifetime, either allowing the giants to die or taking advantage of the situation to cash them in alive. Either way, we are looking at a brety damn sweet addition of 200 million berries. Skipping Drum Island, now because Shor will land there, but there is absolutely no money to be made, and as a result, we now find ourselves on Alabaster. In the first to many unfortunate situations for Luffy in this particular universe, because his primary opponent during this arc would be Sir Crocodile, which at face value provides a delightful payday of 81 million berries, but there's just one teeny tiny minor problem, which is that Crocodile is a warlord at this stage and his bounty is frozen, meaning that Luffy cannot claim it. So that was a whole lot of effort for a whole lot of nothing. That's all right though, because we can now drown our sorrows in a bar on Jaya Island, where we are bound to find some valuable scum to clean up, and having mistaken that previous sentence for his own name, Bellamy will promptly show up, and despite the fact that he is an absolute scrub that will get one shot by Luffy, this scrub is actually quite the treasure goblin, because as it turns out, Luffy's singular punch in this situation was worth a whopping 55 million berries. Plus, Sarkis also happened to be floating around here and unfortunately, he did choose to make his presence known to Luffy and Canon, and thus he will also not be ignored here, especially with a bounty of 38 million berries to his name.   Even better than that though, we have a hefty hefty score to be made elsewhere on Jaya, due to the presence of the Sarayama Alliance, made up primarily of the pirates, Mont Blanc Cricket, Salvage King Masura, and Sona King Shoujo, all three of which have juicy juicy bounties of 25, 23, and 36 million berries respectively, all of which belongs to Luffy now, because well, what are they going to do? They're not going to stop Luffy beating them up, so together, that's another 84 million berries of pure profit from Jaya, which is nice because from there, we moved to Sky Island, and well, there are no bounties to be had there whatsoever, not even in their local currency of extoll. I suppose Skypeans just don't believe in that sort of government funded vigilante justice. Things get arguably interesting back on the Blue Sea, now however, because we have a Long Ring Long Land to visit, which is usually completely irrelevant in any and all discussions, but in this video, Foxy the Silver Fox has caught our eye, because he happens to be worth 24 million berries, and no, we are not just going to let that slip away. Davey back fight, whatever, doesn't matter, we are taking him down, which means that we have surpassed another career milestone of Luffy having earned over 500 million berries. Entering something of an unfortunate dry spell, now, Water Seven, the Sea Train, any Sobby, yeah, look, they really give us a whole lot of nothing. It's a very marine, world government focused arcs, so we don't encounter a lot of pirates, actually, not sure if we encounter any, and we probably won't until Thriller Bark. However, this is another one of those terrible situations, where so Luffy can defeat Gekkomoriya, but his bounty of 320 million berries is frozen due to being a warlord. So once again, a lot of unnecessary effort there, but we do have something of a consolation prize being Charlotte Lola. She happens to be aboard Thriller Bark and worth 24 million berries, which hey, that's enough to pay the bills, so let's go. Now, ones that are conceivable for Luffy to capture, such as the worst generation, Shaki in Silver's Rayleigh, et cetera. So there's not a whole lot to do here, except be separated by Kuma and end up on Amazon Lily. And here, Luffy cannot even attempt to capture Boa Hancock, or I suppose he can, but the whole warlord thing means another frozen bounty, although he does fight against both Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold, and they have rather delicious bounties of 40 million berries each, which was a fight that ended in a bit of a weird way in canon, but Luffy was clearly dominating, and so he will pick up both of them, adding another 18 million to the bank. The rest of the Paramount War saga is also quite troublesome, because sure, Luffy can go into Impel Down, but none of the pirates in there actually have active bounties, and whilst many at Marineford do, it's nigh on impossible to determine which pirates Luffy would and would not have been able to comfortably capture in all of that chaos. So we're going to have to call that a bit of an unfortunate wash. I mean, I guess Luffy does canonically go up against Mihawk, but even if Luffy could beat him, Mihawk's bounty, like so many others, is a frozen. So we've really got to move straight past the time skip and upon returning to Sabotee to meet up with the rest of the straw hat hunters. Luffy does defeat Damara Black, aka fake Luffy, who had a bounty of 26 million berries. Although this does trigger a bit of an unfortunate paradox, because if Luffy was a bounty hunter, then Damara Black would not be impersonating him. But for the sake of simplicity, we'll say that he was pretending to be some other pirate and just take that 26 million anyway. Diving down to Fishman Island now and there's not a whole lot to be had here. I mean, actually, Vandedecken does have a bounty, a Fishman specific bounty, but that is not paid by the world government so we won't try to count him and we also don't know what it is. That's a problem. And really the only people of note are Pekoms and Tamago, who show up at the end of the arc. Both very valuable, by the way. And I don't think it's out of the question to state that Luffy could conceivably beat both, adding Pekoms 330 and Tamago's 429 million to the haul, which more than doubles Luffy's career total, landing him with a bank of 1 billion 394.5 million berries. Funk has it now and we have the big prize that is Caesar Clown. He is 100% Luffy's target, netting us a profit of 300 million, very nice. And I guess Luffy does also fight the Eddie Cool Brothers, but they were beaten by both Law and Frankie, the Frankie and Chopper's body that is. So that's a no-go there. Dressrosa has the potential to be quite complicated because there's a lot of bound to horrific beings, especially in the Carter Colosseum. However, as per the rules of the Colosseum, Luffy may only fight during the matches, which pretty much leaves us with Don Chin Zhao, who is a mighty big fish actually, a pirate of old with an active bounty of 542 million. So yeah, we're taking that for sure. Otherwise, Dressrosa becomes a bit of a marine food situation, there's far too much chaos and too many characters to state with any certainty who Luffy would and would not capture. So we will have to settle for one times Chin Zhao here, especially since Dolflamingo did have a juicy 340 million berries, but oh no, it's frozen. Man bounty hunter Luffy has life pretty rough. Zhao is also a bit of a non-event from the perspective of making that their moneys. However, Whole Cake Island is going to see our biggest score yet. Firstly, in the form of Charlotte Cracker, who Luffy did need his fellow hunter Nami's hope to defeat, but the Biscuit Man was taken down regardless and he was worth a mighty 850 million berries.  Perhaps he has some kind of bounty hunter related plot armor. Perhaps not. Either way, Charlotte Carter Curry was worth a massive 1 billion and 57 million berries, both of which added to Luffy's bank totals 4 billion, 143.5 million berries. And since we don't have anything to add from 1-O so far, that's going to be that. But how wild is that? Throughout Luffy's entire career, he has actually owned the equivalent of just over what Shanks is worth as an Emperor of the Sea. And if we were to convert that into good old US currency, that would mean that Luffy had earned over 40 million dollars. Just goes to show that all of those little bounties really do add up and maybe, just maybe, someone, anyone in this series should consider being a bounty hunter because it's wildly lucrative. But if you'd like to explore these in a bit more depth, then please do check out the bounty playlist, which breaks down a lot of fun facts about this series including our highest and lowest ever recorded bounties. Lots of good fun, so I look forward to seeing you there.


of intercession is one of the most controversial issues with Islam. The Shia school of thought and also other schools within the Sunni traditions believe in the concept of intercession while others like Wahhabism refute it and reject the fact of intercession and claim that every person who believes in it is not a Muslim. The Qur'an addresses this issue in various manners. This is why my esteemed guests and I have dedicated tonight's episode to examine the concept of intercession within the Holy Qur'an, respected viewers, brothers and sisters in Islam. As-salamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Welcome to the third episode of Life from Karbala Ramadan series with me, your host Ahmed Ali. Tonight is a very special night. It's the third night of Ramadan and it is the night prior to Friday, late to Juma and Alhamdulillah, Rab al-Alamin Karbala is packed. However, I would like to introduce my guest who has joined me once again, As-salamu alaikum Sayyidina. How are you? I would like to ask Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to bless you on this very special night. Likewise. The first Thursday night in Ramadan, it's a very special night and Karbala is packed with programs. In the previous episode, yesterday's episode, we discussed Imamah within the Holy Qur'an and discussed the role of the Imam and what are his duties. However, we continuously see the emphasis by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, which Allah and the Alibate place upon intercession. And we see that in the Holy Qur'an, in the traditions of Alibate, Alayhi salam. The question is that when we see this emphasis, and when we see some people who try to refute the concept of intercession, misconceptions begin to raise and issues begin to raise. And this causes Muslims to separate from one another. First, let's break it down and see what intercession is and why is it important? That due to the concept of al-shafa'ah or intercession, followers of Alibate have been attacked for centuries in believing in the concept of shafa'ah and asking their imams to intercede on their behalf for tawassul, for visiting the graves of Rasulullah sallallahu al-wali and the imams in asking them to intercede on their behalf. Now, before we see what the Qur'an exactly says about shafa'ah, let's first understand what is shafa'ah because perhaps we're arguing over nothing. If we define shafa'ah, perhaps we'll discover that we both agree on the same topic. The shafa'ah is legitimate, it's acceptable, there's nothing wrong with it. What is shafa'ah? Shafa'ah is to intercede on behalf of someone. This could be in your everyday life. You intercede with a judge, someone is in trouble.   This is a form of intercession. When you go and you intercede on behalf of someone, for that person's benefit, to reduce punishment, to forgive a crime, to forgive a sin, to elevate that person's status, this is called shafa'ah. You're a business owner and you have people applying for your business as employees. You ask for a recommendation letter. I write a person a recommendation letter. You know me, we're good friends. You trust me. You trust my sense of judgment.  You will hire that person. This is a shafa'ah. That recommendation letter is considered shafa'ah. You will hire that person based upon my recommendation. This is shafa'ah. So is it safe to say that shafa'ah is some sort of assistance? It is a form of assistance. Let's come to shafa'ah in the religious sense. It is when a group of people, sometimes it's not people, sometimes it's a place. Sometimes it's a thing, like a book, intercedes on the day of judgment. Allah swt will forgive some people because of that intercession, because so-and-so interceded, or because a specific place interceded, like a masjid. A masjid will intercede on the day of judgment, and will speak on the day of judgment, and that's not far-fetched. Because the Quran says, وقالوا لجلودهم لمشاهدتم علينا قالوا أنطقنا الله الذي أنطق كل شيء Our skin, our bodily organs will speak on the day of judgment. So it's not far-fetched that a masjid will speak, and will say that this person prayed inside me five times, ten times, twenty times. The Quran will intercede on the day of judgment. Will say this person read me so-and-so many times, it will intercede. And some people will intercede. Prophets, angels, and we believe the Imams will also intercede on the day of judgment. Meaning that they will ask Allah swt to forgive this person, or to reduce his punishment, or to elevate his status. This person is already in paradise. This person who has the right or privilege of interceding will ask Allah swt to elevate this person's status in heaven, or decrease his punishment in hellfire, and so on and so forth. This is intercession, this is called Shafaqah. Now, whatever we say might just be claims. So if you want to make it into, you know, bring accuracy into the topic, and make it 100% certain, we have to use evidences, and you know, and the best evidence is the holy words of the Quran. Because everyone agrees upon the Quran. Definitely. We see that the Quran addresses the issue, or the concept of intercession in three matters. This is what I've gathered. Maybe you have more. First, there are verses which negate intercession. We see that in chapter 2, verse 123, and verse 254. The second matter is that there are verses which say that intercession is exclusively domain by Allah, or of Allah swt. Only Allah is the one who can intercede for humanity. And we see that in chapter 6, verse 70, and chapter 39, verse 44, and the third, we see that there are various verses which take priority over the first and the second matters, where the first is about the one who negates intercession, and the only Allah, and Allah swt. These two verses give certain people who have been selected by Allah swt. The ability to intercede for humanity or specific individuals. Now, what does the Quran have to say? I know we brought a couple of verses. I didn't mention the verses, but I brought numbers of the verses. Some verses, when we do look at this, I mean the first one negates, the second one says only Allah can intercede, and the third ones, they say that Allah can give people the ability to intercede. So does it not increase conflict between the verses and between Islam? So how is that? And how do we resolve the issue? The verses regarding Shafa'ah in the Quran are quite various. As you said, we have maybe more than 25 verses on Shafa'ah. It comes specifically in the word Shafa'ah, Yashfa'ah, Yashfa'un, and the various roots of this word. If you look it up, you will see that this word, with the root word, with the other forms of usage, there is a minimum of 25 verses that have mentioned Shafa'ah, intercession. From my understanding of these verses, I see that Allah, in some verses, says there is absolutely no intercession. Yes, and we do see that. And there are no intercessors. For example, Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 48, Be pious, fear the day in which one person cannot help another, and intercession will not be accepted, period. There's no exceptions in this verse. It's a general law. There's no Shafa'ah. Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 123, the one that you mentioned. And fear the day in which any intercession will not benefit it. No intercession will benefit it. Meaning, no matter who intercedes, it will not benefit them. Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 254, O you who believe, give from what we've given you. Before that day comes, which has a day in which there's no buying and selling, and there's no friendship, and there's no intercession, and the disbelievers are the oppressors. Surah Al-Qiyamah, verse 48, that the intercession of the intercessors will not benefit them. Meaning, intercession is no good. Even if there were to be intercessors, their intercession is meaningless. Surah Al-An'am, verse 51, They have no one other than Allah, as an intercessor. There's no one else. There's no friend to take care of them, and there's no intercessor to take care of them. So we do see the confusion. I mean you just mentioned verses where it says there's absolutely no intercession. Now it's Allah. Here in this verse, that there is an intercessor. The intercessor is Allah swt. No one else. The verse doesn't mention anyone else. It's only Allah swt. There's other verses. What I understand from these verses is that the general law on the Day of Judgement is that no one can help you. You'll come by yourself. You'll be resurrected by yourself. And the only thing that can help you on the Day of Judgement is your actions. What have you put forward?  You help an orphan. You help your parents. You respected someone.  It's only your actions. This is the general law. There's nothing that can save you on the Day of Judgement. Nothing that can help you other than your actions. It's just like in Arabic we say We give an example, but examples remain not very clear. There are some game shows on TV. Who wants to be a millionaire? You're asked questions. The first thing that can help you on this show is what? Your brain. Your knowledge. Your brain. Your memorization skills. How much you've memorized? By default, if you don't have knowledge, you should not go on that show. Right? However, even if you have knowledge, but sometimes you forget, you get to ask someone for help. There's assistance. There's assistance. You get to call someone. Call someone, ask the audience. Or ask the audience. But by default, it has to be your knowledge. What you know. What you've memorized. How much information and knowledge you have. You're qualified to go on that show. Allah SWT is trying to tell us that number one, the first criteria is your actions. What have you brought with you on the Day of Judgment? This is the general law. So don't come to the Day of Judgment thinking that someone will help you. This person will help your mother, your father, this prophet, that Imam. No. Bring your actions. You don't have actions. Good luck. No one can help you. No one can help you. If you don't have good deeds, you're in big trouble. This is the general law.  And to every rule there's what? There's an exception. Yeah. To every rule there's an exception. The exception is that some people will have the right to intercede. And some people will have the right to receive intercession. Who will see later on? But let's first prove that some people have the right to intercede. Because these people are special. Not because of who they are. No, by merit, by their actions, by their qualities. These people are special. Allah SWT has given them the right to intercede. Does this conflict? It does. You still see that there's a conflict? I mean, well, the thing is that first we said that there's action. Yes. So is action the only solution to that? You see, it's just like when you go and propose to a lady. Yes. You have to have a couple of criteria. Yes. But there's one criteria more important than others. Yes. The first criteria is faith, for example. For some families you have to be a Muslim. Yes. If you have this criteria and you have others, that's great. But if you don't have the number one criteria, you're out. You're not even welcome. The first criteria is actions on the Day of Judgment. Now, after having actions, some people, they need a boost. Yes. They need the word that you used, assistance. Yes. There's a difference between someone who comes on the Day of Judgment and has absolutely no good deeds. This person has no room for Shafa. And another person who comes with good deeds, but he needs a boost. Yes. He needs a form of assistance. Shafa is for this person. Okay. Or this person has good deeds, but has some bad deeds as well. It's not that he came empty handed whatsoever. He has good deeds, but at the same time he has bad deeds. Mistakenly. Here he receives Shafa. The Quran says in Surah Maryam, verse 87. He has made a vow with the All-Merciful. Has the right to intercede. Surah Taha, verse 109. No intercession will be accepted except. You see that general law is that intercessions are not accepted.  These are a group of people that Allah has chosen because of their merits, because of their qualities as a reward for what they've done.  One of your rewards is that you get to intercede on the Day of Judgment. Allah has the right to give permission. Allah is the one who says on the Day of Judgment there's no intercession. He's the one that says, yes, I've made this law. There are no intercessions except for a few. For those that I've given them the right to intercede. So he makes an exception. And another verse. Surah Saba, verse 23. And to such a zulna be accepted unless a person is given permission. Surah Zokhruf, verse 86. They will not have the right to intercession unless they witness to the truth. Allah will tell them fine. Aitur Kursi, we're all very familiar with Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 255. Who dares intercede? Who will intercede? Allah be with me. If you have permission, you can intercede. If you don't have permission, you can intercede. So it's a matter of do you have permission to intercede or you don't have permission to intercede? Are you allowed to receive intercession or you're not allowed to receive intercession? So that negation, even though it's general, but every general law has what? An exception. An exception. I don't know. Do we have time before the break to go into details on who receives intercession or who doesn't receive intercession? I think we have a couple of more minutes. But now I know why it's confusing and it's very controversial amongst the traditions. But the thing is that when we do come to understand that intercession is only to Allah and then we have to the ones who are granted permission by Allah, we do see that isn't it confusing? I mean why is Allah stating in the first that no intercession and then Allah intercedes and then He grants permission? Good point. When Allah SWT says, intercessions for me. And then He says, some people, or He's making receptions. At the end of the day, Allah SWT can intercede or gives that right to others. That's possible. There's verses that speak about taking life. Yes. In some verses of the Qur'an, Allah says, Allah takes away lives. And another verse, He says, Say that the one who takes your life is the angel of death. Is this a conflict? No. Because when the angel of death, Allah says, And another verse says the angel of death takes away your life. Is there a conflict? No. Because when the angel of life is taking life and bringing death to a person, He's doing it with the authority of whom? Allah SWT. So what I understand from that is that they're intertwined through the command of Allah. Perfect. So when Allah SWT, when He allows someone to intercede, Allah is giving Him the permission to intercede. And in reality, Allah has interceded. Because He's giving permission for someone to intercede. Yes. That's perfect. So Sayyidina, we'll go into a short break. Insha'Allah. We'll come back to this discussion. So respected viewers will be presented with an overview of tonight's episode, as well as live footage from the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain, peace be upon him on Thursday night. So to the break, we'll go back shortly. We'll be presented with live footage from inside the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain, peace be upon him. It's Thursday night prior to Friday. And as Ahlul Bayt, peace be upon him, and the traditions from our beloved Imams, they state that whoever sends his salutations and sends blessings upon Imam Hussain, on Thursday night Allah SWT will grant him paradise and will grant him the ability to come and visit his beloved Imam Hussain, peace be upon him. So join us as we send our salutations to our beloved master Imam Hussain, peace be upon him. Respected viewers, welcome back. I hope you, insha'Allah, enjoyed those live footage from inside the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain, as you can see. It's very packed. And Alhamdulillah, Rab al-Alamin. Karbala is flourishing through its programs and through its zuwar. And Alhamdulillah, Rab al-Alamin. What better place to be other in the Holy Land of Karbala on a night like this, the night of Ramadan, the night prior to Friday. But back to discussion with my dear guest, Sayyed Hussain Qazmeen, you're welcome back. How are you, Sayyidina? Alayha Khaldiqum. Alayha Khaldiqum, insha'Allah. Before the break, we cleared up some confusion regarding the concept of intercession and the issue regarding it. And, you know, some verses we stated that no intercession is allowed. Then we said Allah is the one who intercedes. Allah gives or grants permission to some individuals with special characteristics and merits who they can intercede as well. But all of that comes under the command of Allah SWT. But some state that Prophet Muhammad and the Ahlul Bayt, peace be upon them, have absolute power of intercession. Is it not, you know, that characteristic only to Allah SWT? How does Prophet Muhammad and the Ahlul Bayt possess that? We believe that Allah Azawajal has given Rasulullah, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, the right to Shafa'ah. And this is clear in the whole of Quran. And so too to the Imams. Really? In fact, in fact, some might ask the opposite question. Yes. What's the point of Shafa'ah? Allah SWT tells us to have a direct relationship with Him, without middlemen. Yes. Allah SWT says, He says, Call on me and I'll answer you. There's no middleman. Not call on someone else. Not call on someone else. Don't put a middleman between me and you. Fine. That's true. Allah SWT could call on Him directly. No one says you can't. Yes. Call on Allah directly. However, sometimes some human beings, they want to boost. Yes. They want to make sure that their prayer is not rejected. Yes. Perhaps Allah might reject me for my sins. Yes. And He has every right to do so. For my sins, for my misbehavior, hypocrisy, lack of sincerity, and so on and so forth. As human beings, He has the right to reject us. Yes. But when I come and I put forward, O Surah Allah SAW, when I put forward Imam Ali Ali, What's the point of Shafa'ah? What's the point of Shafa'ah? Will He reject me? Will He say no? Most likely not. Yes. Because that Shafa'ah will give me a boost. That's the point of Shafa'ah. Otherwise I could go directly to Allah SWT. And have the possibility of being rejected. And have the possibility of being rejected? Yes. And Allah has the right. No one could say that. No, that's injustice. No. If I misbehave, if I oppress Allah, if I sin, if I transgress, Allah has every right to turn me down. We're being injustice. We're the one committing the injustice. Yes. Now, there's a verse in the Quran. That's the biggest proof of Shafa'ah. Specifically regarding Rasulullah SWT. The Quran says, Those who oppress themselves. Yesterday we talked about self-oppression. We talked about self-oppression. Meaning those who committed sins.  Because you're exposing yourself to punishment. They come to you. First they oppress themselves. They come to you. They seek forgiveness. And Rasulullah asks Allah to forgive them. Why do they come to Rasulullah? They can go directly to Allah SWT. And ask forgiveness from Allah SWT. But they know that it's a 50-50 chance of being rejected and denied. But they know that if Rasulullah asks Allah to forgive them, Allah is not going to say no to Rasulullah. He might say no to them for their sins. But is Allah going to say no to Rasulullah? Absolutely not. Absolutely not. They will find that Allah is all forgiving, all merciful. Is there any clearer proof that Shafa'ah exists? This is Shafa'ah. This is Rasulullah interceding on behalf of a group of sinners. Another proof. More proof. The sons of Yaqub alaihi salam. The sons of Yaqub, Prophet Yaqub. After their father discovered what they had done. That they had thrown Yusuf alaihi salam into a well. They confessed. They came clean. They came and told him, They said, forgiveness means what? Forgive us? No. Ask forgiveness? It means ask Allah to forgive us. Ask Allah to forgive us. This is Shafa'ah. He didn't say no. This is shirk. This is not allowed. This is useless. Ask Allah directly. What did he say? say I will I shall ask Allah to forgive you this is Shafa'a this is Shafa'a this is clear proof of Shafa'a in the Qur'an well now I would like to move to a different yet related topic to intercession this also raises misconstruction you know Al-Shia Alhamdulillah I mean we hold we hold a firm basis regarding the traditions and the commands that we have received through the Al-Waid Al-Alim Islam regarding intercession but other schools of thought refute and reject the matter of intercession and they bring forth evidence from the Holy Qur'an that ones that you've mentioned but there's another verse which is chapter 9 verse 14 regarding Ibrahim alaihi salam he says God's beloved servant could not intercede on behalf of his father who was a pagan so isn't he a prophet and he couldn't intercede so they said through this you can't intercession is is not allowed in Islam we say Nuh who could not intercede on behalf of his son when he was about to drown he says oh God this is my son he says no you know perfect perfect examples and then Prophet Muhammad could not intercede on behalf of his uncle Abu Lahab in chapter 111 verse 1 to 3 or relatives in chapter 9 verse 80 so the question that that that is raised right now are there any traditions from the Sunni school of thought regarding intercession yes there is but to answer you on these verses we stated that Shafa'a is for those that need a boost that have good deeds and have some bad deeds but they need a boost the examples that you mentioned Ibrahim could not intercede for his uncle yes not for his father or uncle his uncle his uncle not his father we believe that the person in the Qur'an it's not his father it's his uncle okay and that's another topic that's another topic even though he uses the word ebb because we believe that the fathers of prophets or monotheists they cannot be polytheists anyhow his uncle was an idol worshiper yes he had no good deeds so in order to intercede for him to intercede for him for what he hasn't done any good deeds yes that would be unjust to intercede for a person just because he's an uncle or just because he's a nephew or just because he's a son that's not a merit or for Nuh to intercede on behalf of his son why his son was a kafir he willingly rejected definitely Nuh can now intercede on behalf of his son because his son had no good deeds he lacked faith we said in the beginning that Shafa'ah is for those that have good deeds that have faith but at the same time they slacked off a little bit he's locked off here they slacked off there they missed maybe a Salah here a Salah there maybe maybe I don't know but this is the idea that I have a Shafa'ah according to the Qur'an in that hadith those who they have some deeds but they need a boost they need assistance Abu Lahab the uncle of Rasulullah he only had bad deeds he didn't have a single good deed for Rasulullah to intercede now intercession in Sunni book sub hadith it's very clear there's lots of narrations I'm only gonna mention one or two two or three he's Sunan al-Nisa'i an Jabir ibn Abdullah I was given five things now that no one before me was given I was given intercession and no prophet before me was given intercession this is in Sunan al-Nisa'i I also in Sunan al-Nisa'i he asks for my help he will receive my intercession another hadith another hadith my intercession is for those that perform the big sins in my I will intercede on their behalf I will get them I will get them back in Assyrian Nabawiyah by Al-Halabi this is a Sunni source Abu Bakr came to the corpse of Rasulullah after his death he removed the cloth over his face and he threw himself on the body of Rasulullah and he said to his father and mother may my mother and father be a sacrifice for you it's Kurnaya Muhammad and the Rabbik mention us remember us with your Lord what is this Shafa'ah Abu Bakr is asking Rasulullah to perform intercession while in akun feebalik remember us don't forget us with Allah this is just a couple of drops from the ocean of narrations mentioned in Sunni books of hadith so that also somewhat does answer the question is that since they have that within their books why is it within their schools of thought the idea of intercession is rejected that's it's either up to them or you can answer I mean it's up to you because somewhat it's it's confusing because when you have two schools of thought who believe in the same prophet and who believe in the same book they tend to you know because the verses we mentioned aren't just you know cherry picked from the Quran no they're actually verses who state which state that intercession plays a very significant role within you know the Muslims within the Muslims life and as you mentioned you know some people do have mistakes yet they need a little boost now you've mentioned that the one with Abu Bakr who says remember us with your Lord remember us with your Lord that means that on a day of judgment after everyone's everyone dies Rasulullah remembers him I don't know if he does or not but remembers the Muslims on a day of judgment the question is is that who gets to intercede on a day of judgment the prophets the imams regular people pious who gets to intercede the verses on the Quran they say that you know we read some of the verses that no one has the right to intercession except Allah has given permission just off the bat we can assume who has the right to who will be given permission prophets I mean if prophets are not given the right to intercede who will be given the right to intercede imams our imams our imams are not less significant than the prophets and their deeds and their spirituality and their righteousness and their akhlaab as we mentioned yesterday in their worship they're not less significant than the prophets so they too have the right to intercede we have narrations that say angels will enter that have the right to intercede scholars al-ulama they have the right to intercede martyrs al-shuhada they have the right to intercede the Quran has the right to intercede the masjid has the right to intercede no these are narrations these are narrations in hadith some places of worship and our you know from the Sunni school of thought they agree upon this if you see them you know they have a they have a practice when they pray in one place the next salat they'll pray somewhere else the third salat they'll get up and pray somewhere else that's good this is a good practice why because we have narrations that say the place where you pray will intercede for you on the day of judgment will come and say that this person prayed on top of me so the more places you pray on the more places will intercede on the day of judgment and they agree upon this as well in the Sunni school of thought now if a place intercedes if a copy of the Quran intercedes if a mosque a building intercedes an infallible imam cannot intercede and we'll talk about infallibility tomorrow insha'Allah an infallible imam a sinless imam a righteous person if a scholar intercede are the imams not scholars all schools of thought agree that imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq was a scholar his father imam al-Baqir was a scholar Musa ibn Ja'far was a scholar according to their on biographies there are scholars if you agree that scholars intercede are imams also intercede so I mean it's very beautifully said that since any scholar can intercede how can the imams or the prophets not intercede so we do see that whoever is granted permission so infallible or not infallible still they can intercede so that somewhat removes the confusion the conflict within but earlier in the episode you mentioned actions and the importance of actions I know we have a couple of I think 5 or 6 minutes left since that we do our 3 minutes since that we have the actions that they come since that we have the actions and intercession if intercession plays that role what's the role of actions this is a very important question and this is where some people they fall into a slippery slope they think that as long as there is shafa'a there's no need for actions I'll depend on I'll depend on imam Ali as long as I have love for the Ahlul Bayt I'll depend on imam Al-Hussain there is shafa'a but at the same time there's actions we said in the beginning that intercession comes as a boost as long as you have actions if you don't have actions who said you'll get shafa'a who said you'll get shafa'a there's some people they think they could come on the day of judgment empty handed absolutely empty handed and they'll receive the shafa'a of imam Al-Hussain who said imam Al-Sadiq Ali on his deathbed he gathered his family members and he said I want to say one last statement I want everyone to hear and those of you that are here say it to the ones that are not here that we don't get shafa'a our intercession will not reach someone who doesn't take the prayer seriously is not someone who doesn't pray whatsoever no, he prays but he doesn't take the prayer seriously instead of praying on time he delays Salat an hour, two hours, three hours this person will not receive intercession let alone someone who doesn't pray whatsoever this person will not receive intercession this hadith by itself tells us that actions are a must you cannot replace actions with shafa'a shafa'a was not meant to replace actions do good deeds come do the best of deeds and intercession will help look at our top scholars in Maraj'a they were almost infallible you don't see a single scholar that commits sins and relies on intercession and shafa'a and says, you know what, I have enough I'll have the shafa'a of the al-Habit no, they came with good deeds and insha'Allah they hope to receive some shafa'a insha'Allah and that's a perfect perfect statement to end tonight's episode is that actions is more important than intercession because if you don't have actions intercession doesn't play you'll be like the son of Nuh perfect, or the uncle of Prophet Abraham thank you very much Sayyidina for joining us tonight may Allah's upon ta'ala bless you for your dedication respected viewers thank you very much for joining us in tonight's episode we have cleared up the confusion regarding intercession and may Allah's upon ta'ala bless everyone on a night like this the night prior

In one color so we're in Walmart right now and of course the first thing that Mariah wants to buy guys This is so not fair. Yeah, she does see Mariah has to win this challenge. I'm not letting you beat me Do you have any drinks that are like yellow? I really do not know who's the winner. I don't either Back to our channel guys, how is it going today is a beautiful day? It is what 85 degrees out in Florida We're in nothing but short sleeves. You cannot Pass out but today as you guys have read by today's title We are buying everything in one color. So basically today. I'm wearing pink So everything that I buy today. I have to just have everything has to be pink and I'm wearing yellow So everything that I buy today no matter what it is has to be yellow or have a majority of yellow in it Oh my god, which is going to be hard because we're not only just doing foods. We're doing Different everything it's not just a food challenge or a drink challenge. We're doing toys games if we go anywhere Exactly we need a chair. I got to get a yellow chair like literally anything that we get today And we're gonna be on all day buying stuff. Yes, you're gonna see it firsthand We got to buy it in our color and if we don't we fail But we're not failing guys We're not failing for all of our new guests that are watching this video out here So make sure to stay tuned to watch the video till the end Give this video a big thumbs up if you guys haven't already Let's try to get this video to what 15,000 likes 15,000 likes for uh, what for? Florida for Florida give it 15,000 likes and we'll do another one of these challenges But we got to switch it up below. We'll do a little twist to it Oh, yes But if you guys haven't already make sure you go down and hit that subscribe button join the mower family And let's get on to today's video. Let's go All right guys so for our first stop we had to get breakfast because we literally had not eaten anything today and What it is one o'clock in the afternoon And that's okay because we're at Perkins and we're gonna order but remember you can only order red right or you're doing pink All right, so anything that's pink. So what I'm doing is I'm gonna get strawberry pancakes. That's red Yeah, no, it's pink. It's like a pinkish red. Wait, wait, wait, so you're saying you can do pink and red now You get two colors. There's some pink strawberries. They're like a pinker side. They're pinky. They're pinky red Because I know there's nothing else on the menu except ham. I'm gonna let you go with that one strawberry That looks pink. It gives it a little pink. It gives it people All right, whatever whatever she can get the strawberry. That's fine Strawberry pancakes. No no Girl, you don't even look at this. I already got an orange shoes. Do I know why because it's yellow And do I know what you can't have it because it's mine and I'm buying it. It's perfect. I love orange shoes That's what I drink in the morning guys. It's like a straw.  Oh wait No, but I didn't I didn't buy it though. Those are free. So technically boom Yeah, no, you're good. You go see she even knew hey, if you don't buy a babe, I can use it That is a free straw. So that is mine, but I'm buying the orange you so you can't have any So what I'm gonna get on the menu I'm gonna get something that goes along with eggs because luckily it's yellow and I love eggs good protein Good everything good diet, right? I'm like pancakes So let's order this up and we'll see you guys a little bit.  Those are a little little pink But the strawberries are right, but I'll let I'll let this one slide babe because you thought of it And you don't really think of a lot of good ideas. So I'm just kidding. I'm kidding. But what is with this? This is not pink explain This is was pink before it was made. So it's still raw sausage Raw sausage. It's not pink because she literally no you're right. That that was a good idea Sausage is pink before it's cooked Right, you're going way too. All right. No guys. I'm sorry after breakfast because look at mine. Look at mine This is a shade of yellow. This is look at the shirt. Look at the shirt Take it. I don't need it. I don't need it. You know why because I'm doing this challenge, right? All right, I'm gonna tell you right now after we eat guys We are actually legitimately only buying the color that we have Really not just the sauce on the pancakes. All right. Stay tuned guys We're heading to some stores later.   But why do you need a pink ball? Hey, that's okay. That's okay. Put in the cart I'm not getting yellow ball. We don't need it. We don't need two big balls What are you gonna use that for? To hit you with? Put in the cart. Come on. That's your first item Guys, this is so not fair. We need a tv right babe. Yeah, we need a tv for our House that we're gonna be moving it to very soon. For my color I wanted to buy this so bad and look at the box. You never see this for a tv. Are you ready ready? It's a yellow freaking, you know part of it's brown, but it's mostly yellow that box literally matches my shirt It literally does. I'm so mad if it wasn't for us having a small little car our corvette We would have been able to purchase this today, but if we have you all I would buy this right now This would literally work so good for my color. This is so annoying Excuse, what are you putting in the car? What is that? Give me that future girl, baby shoes Why do we always get caught up in the baby aisle, babe? How cute these are? You actually want them? Yeah, we should just keep them. Fine put them in the cart. I don't they're your color you could buy of I can't believe So we just swapped over to target because walmart low key sucks We were at walmart. They were remodeling the store and it was just complete disaster So we were over at target and I've been striking out. I can literally not find anything But i'm gonna try harder and target target is going to be the place that I spend probably a lot of money But what are you getting already? Oh my god, look at okay. No, you can't really say because that's cute. You know, it is cute. No, it is cute I'm not gonna lie. I'm gonna like seeing these on your instagram right make sure to follow us on instagram guys because She'll be posting these. I'm beating him in a challenge so far. She has what three things Well, maybe she was a ball and a bikini. I could beat that come on All right, so let's go find some stuff because I am in need of some yellow things right now and should I just get this Do you actually get those? Yeah, actually you look so Should I that guys I'm gonna wear that at the end of the video make sure to watch I will put this on once we get home stay tuned makes to watch us all the way through a walk girl Are you kidding me? Yeah, but this will fit me fine. Okay. This damn near is a large. Are you kidding me? I am really wishing I could change my color right now Like Mariah is finding stuff No, I'm not feeling It pink sucked for foods, but this do you realize? No, do you realize that literally yellow? There's no yellow anywhere. Do you see like? Yeah, what what is that? I'm not getting a beach ball like are you kidding? Or should I should I actually you know what because you said I'm failing. I'm gonna get a football This is yellow right it's yellow oranges more yellow than anything. So boom. Are you kidding me? It's okay. I'm still gonna meet you. No now. You know what? No You know what? Okay. I'm gonna do noodle.  Yeah, my soul. You can't copy me How about anything that I get you can't get new rules starting now anything that I pick you cannot pick the same thing in a different color Starting now guys bill is still striking out. I got myself a pink mug or a jug for when we work out In every eye. Sorry team Mariah has to win this challenge. I'm not letting you beat me. So oh I see something. I don't know if you're blind, but I definitely see something And I'm not gonna tell you I want you to figure it out over there. Do you see what I'm talking about? Let's go wait That big thing Why would you why would you tell me? Oh, yeah, let's go. Let's go. Hold on. Hold on back the fluff off babe back up I found this fair and square. I'm buying it. Look at this. Look at this beach chair. Wait, what? No, there's more yellow than pink. There's more yellow than pink that yellow takes over the whole thing That's a pretty cool beach chair. And do I know what it's mine. I'm buying it So here do you want to hold the camera next to you? Team bill really thinks he's out here. He's gonna beat me, but he's really not Do you think Bill's trying to act all sliggy? He almost broke it. No, that's the last color too. That would have sucked for you Baby, this is kind of pink. Why don't you get that a nice little throw rug, right? Your chairs help me. That's cute Yeah, get it. No, it's cute. It's my chair. You're not going to beat my chair now. My chair is too good for you Okay, but you're it doesn't matter about what your chair is. It depends on how many items I can find right? Well, good thing that I'm finding more right now. Yeah, you have the cart. So you're stuck. I'm going I'm in the process of finding I didn't find them yet, but I'm in the process of finding them chill Oh, babe. This is yellow. Mariah. Guess what? This is yellow Guys, I literally found the jackpot. I did not realize but food is my aisle They don't have they don't have yellow things anyway except in the food aisle guys I'm not gonna lie after we moved out of like the toys section and all the like goodies and stuff Literally mariah has not found anything in the past 10 minutes. So I'm looking up on this challenge I'm not trying to eat junk food I think we should head out of target because we basically went through every aisle and see what we can find next Yes, let's go guys. I've never seen so much of two different color on a like scale at once. It's so funny All right guys, we just made to starbucks and you already know I gotta start off the day with the pink drink Or I'm sorry I'm half day of the pink drink. I need some energy and unfortunately bill cannot get a pink drink I know and now he has to find something. Can I get one grind a pink drink with no berries and light ice? And then do you have any drinks that are like yellow? Is that yellow? Yeah Is that like a yellow yellow? Yeah All right, I'll do regular lemonaise And then That's fine, and that'll be it Okay, but that's so embarrassing. I can only drink I'm so embarrassed guys. Give me a minute. You know what you know what give me a minute Fine. You come in this seat. You think it's easy Guys, we did it. What did he say when he handed me this? He goes. That's yellow. He goes. Uh, is that yellow? And I'm like, I'm like, yeah, that's yellow. That's perfect.  He goes. Is that yellow? So is that yeah, I was wondering because he's like, uh, we got like a green tea lemonade I'm like green tea sounds like green. Dude. I need yellow and then he was like, no, it's yellow. So we're good. We're good Oh my god. Bill is so awkward guys.    It's time to count up to see no it is time Let me find this for you. I'm making up for all the rules again No, you will know exactly once I pull it out this no, I totally forgot for that Babe put it on ready. I'm gonna throw it.   You are looking mighty fine. Like you don't mean that Something you think that fits you better than if it would fit me. Should I rock again?  We're going to the gym. I think I'm seeing progress.  Wow, baby. You are looking so good guys This is not out of you. Thank you so much for watching this video all the way through But here the video is not over yet because we have to count up. I really do not know who's the winner I don't either. I gotta count our drinks too. So our drinks are one All right guys, but we'll be back. Who do you guys think's gonna win team bill or team raya comment down below All right guys. So first thing I got myself my drink. Where's your drink? Okay, come on Your yellow drink. I got my yellow drink. All right. So that's one One for one for mariah one for team bill mariah Wait, wait, I got my two too. Wait. Hold on. That's two three Hold on three. Wait a minute four. Wait. I got four Where's your fit? Where's your fit? Five. I got five. Oh no Hold on hold on hold on Five that's five wait mariah Do you realize look at this five? Where's your six? Show me another six Hold on. Hold on guys. Dang it. Only six wait. Hold on seven Items, I really thought that I'm sorry. That was actually really hard, but guys I did not even think that I got seven items like that I honestly thought I had more But I thought you won because she No, I would literally turn it and you shoot yourself in the face I honestly had no idea that I was gonna win So many things guys. You have no idea. They had no yellow things in the beginning of this video. I swear I think I just hit the jackpot like I cannot believe that I actually did this mariah Give me some knocks. Give me some knocks for team build being better. Come on.  Team build back Guys, thank you so much for watching this video If you are new to our channel, make sure to go out and hit that subscribe button and join the marvel family We're trying to get this video to 15,000 likes 15,000 likes and we'll do another color video I know you guys love them and we love filming them as well Well, I should know the day. I want you guys to comment down below any video ideas Do you guys would like this to do on our channel? Challenges, cranks, blogs, yes everything and we've been slacking on our vlog channel We really we missed an upload this sunday, and we're so sorry guys. We were so hectic with our house stuff in Florida Just wait a lot a lot of content is coming with that. We got a house coming and we got a lot of home renovations to do Once we get our house. So stay tuned guys. You guys are gonna have a lot of content How do you wear this without it like hurting you? Well, I told you should get a large but you said this fits I'm not a large It's so weird all the boats they keep passing in the canal over here And I see people like looking through the windows like the heck is he wearing But thank you guys so much for watching and we will see you in the next video Peace. Love you guys


Plants undergo a gradual decline in the level of MIR 156 and an increase in the expression of its target genes, SPL genes, during the transition from the vegetative to reproductive phase. This process is regulated by gibberellins, jesmonic acids, and cytokinins, but other phytohormones may also be involved. The mutant plant DWF5 has a delayed transition due to reduced levels of SPL9 and MIR 172, as well as increased TOE1 levels. GSK3, like kinase bin 2 then phosphorylates these two proteins, leading to their degradation and thus delaying the transition. This article was authored by Binging Du, Qingluo, Yanhuixian, and others.


When we talk about frictional losses in internal flow, we sort our frictional losses into two categories. Major losses, which are the frictional effects between the fluid and the pipe wall, and what we call minor losses, which are any point where the fluid changes shape or changes size or changes direction. Minor losses can include losses through valves, elbows, bends, nozzles, diffusers, those sorts of things. They typically make up a small proportion of the frictional losses. That's why they're referred to as minor losses. For frictional losses in general, we describe them as head losses, and we can calculate them by considering our conservation of energy equation from chapter 3. We had neglected the frictional losses, the head loss, but we can talk about it now. In general, our friction head, or our head loss, is the Darcy friction factor multiplied by the unitless proportion of length over diameter, multiplied by the velocity squared divided by 2 times gravity. The Darcy friction factor in general is a function of the Reynolds number, a relative roughness, which is the proportion of how bumpy the pipe is divided by diameter, and the shape of the pipe or duct through which the fluid is flowing. We can calculate the friction factor by using 8 times the shear stress at the wall divided by diameter times velocity squared. For laminar flow, we can use our Poiseuille flow velocity profile that we had developed back in our differential relations chapter. And for Newtonian fluids, we can use a shear stress relationship between viscosity and shear rate to represent our shear stress at the wall as 8 times dynamic viscosity times velocity divided by diameter. When we take 8 times that result divided by density times velocity squared, we end up with 64 divided by the Reynolds number. So for laminar flow, the Darcy friction factor is just 64 divided by the Reynolds number. A nice, simple, easy equation. For turbulent flow, our equation looks like this. This is called the Colbrook equation, and it relates the friction factor to relative roughness and the Reynolds number. Unfortunately, it's an implicit relationship. Meaning friction factor appears on both the left and right sides of the equation. In order to solve this, we have to come up with a numerical solution by guessing and checking. If you're using a fancy calculator or MATLAB, it can do the guessing and checking for you to converge on a very accurate number. If you're solving this by hand, you either have to guess and check yourself or use a graphical solution like the Moody chart. The Moody chart relates friction factor to Reynolds number for a variety of relative roughnesses. Relative roughness is a dimensionless proportion, and it represents the average bump height along the walls divided by diameter. That average bump height we represent with an epsilon. Here's a table of some example epsilon values for a variety of substances. If you're buying a pipe, you can either check with the manufacturer to figure out what the epsilon value would be, or you can go through a third-party testing service, or you can measure it yourself. But armed with an epsilon value and a diameter, we can calculate a relative roughness and use that value with our Reynolds number to look up a friction factor on the Moody chart. That is about plus or minus 15 percent accurate across the entire range of the chart.
