Hey, hello. I have a kind of a dumb question to ask you guys. Can someone please explain me the Leg Before Wicket rule?

Please read this :-

So, i know you are probably gonna get out if the ball is 1) In line, 2) it's in the off side and it should be hitting the stumps, right?

The thing i don't get is that, why is not considered out if the ball is coming from the off side, it is hitting the stumps but it's just not in the that straight area? I mean, it's Leg Before Wicket, right?

I tried to look at the rules but they were just eh. Didn't understand much. So, can anyone explain that to me.

Thanks.
