[amboiiray]

may Allah bless the uploader of this good deed and Ustaz Yasir Qadhi for the beautiful ceramah. Amin Amin Amin

[ifrahabdi]

thank you khalifahkloking

[tehninjadude]

Why does he keep using arabic words? That just throws off and alienated English-speakers.

Especially when he says "Allah" instead of God. Really alienating, throws you off, dude.

Great video, though!

[khalifahklothing]

@tehninjadude The speech was given to a Muslim audience.

[ilovetodrinkblood]

How does khalifahklothing do it? How does he/she manage to source all these videos?

[omerkha]

[airblade97]

does anyone have the full skript on paper for this speech please i would love to have it jazakalah kairh

[ummluqman101]

Jazak Allahu Khairan Katheeran brother. Its an excellent lecture Alhamdulillah. Now I really understood as to what is Ihsan from your lecture. May Allah grant us taufeeq to reach to the level of Ihsan & include us among His Muhsinoon slaves, Ameen.

[irfand4]

Excellent lecture.

Is there a transcript available anywhere ?

[MajulaDiaby]

As-salamualakum brother,

Your advices inspire me a lot, and make me feel more closer to Allah MACHA ALLAH.

You are right, because at anytime I feel that ALLAH is by my side, and think about ALLah I do everything properly without any effort. But I can't do anything properly without having a connection with ALLAH. I can't even talk properly, or eat properly without a connection to my one true love ALLAH (SWT). I use to be surprised by that.

Jazakalahu khayran.

La-Ilaha Ila-lahou.

[Onedivineprinciple]

JazakAllah khair!

[SkatePhotography]

Allahu Akbar! very good lecture!

[Realityoffaith]

[MahbubAnir]

Assalamualikum Khalifaklothing, I TOO love you brother for the sake of Allah s.w.t, I learned a lot from your videos, Alhamdoulilah.

I hope Allah s.w.t will grant you Paradise Inshallah.

[9tiin]

i love this brother,i gain from every lesson.praise Allah

[nafism6969]

simply terrific

[Menelius91]

"Everyone are Muslims first then we are free to choose our path"

This phrase is almost a bit arrogant. Why should this be right? Wouldn t christians, jews, Hindus, bhuddists (ok, those maybe not), sects, shamans etc. say the same thing too???

[xclusiv4321]

@Menelius91 Well it comes from the belief that Allah swt created us, and so when we were born we were born without sin and with the full knowledge of Allah swt, and later on we were free to choose. It's a faith-based statement that can't be proved or disproved. and yes, i believe all the followers of the religions you mentioned would say the same thing.

[Jenntasnim]

@Menelius91 What you are saying is right. I, after years of being called to Islam, converted to Islam from Christianity. Once I Took Shahaddah I realized that I was a Muslim the whole time. I heard the same message concerning why I should worship Allah S.W.A. With that said though, I don't hear or feel any arrogance coming from this brother. The message of Allah has been brought to humanity through all of the holy books throughout time (rightly preserved and completed in al Quran) He comes from

[faro0485]

Ah never mind, it was this one: /watch?v=7BWw1AprX_E

[faro0485]

This doesn't seem to be the lecture made by yasir qadhi, where he explains why we pray/worship. In where he references the comparison of Adam vs Iblis in each of their prayers to the god.

If anyone knows where that could be found, let me know.

[iqi88]

@faro0485 salam brother. the lecture you are referring to is How Do You Speak To Your Lord?. hope that helps, wasalam.

[iqi88]

@faro0485 salam brother. i believe the lecture you are referring to is How Do You Speak To Your Lord? hope this helps, wasalam.

[whitelilys88]

mashaAllah. Thank you for this. Really helped me allot.

[TheMrMagnanimous]

All Praises are due to Allah. This is an oustanding lecture! I learned a great deal of knowledge from Brother Yasir.

Surah Al 'Alaq

"Proclaim! (Read!) In the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created"

[AllahURabBI19]

oh streetkingz69, how can you respect jamie's disgusting believe. Atheist r da most ridiculous creatures on earth.

[ithowfeek]

May Almighty Allah reward you more and more. Non Muslim brothersplease watchthis clip just for your understandings...Thanks

[omnipotence99]

i consider myself a logical person. show me facts and ill believe you, especially scientific facts. what more do i need? well good character and morals? check. what else? preservation of the book (not one single letter has been altered in the quran sinces its birth). got that covered. so i ask myself, why am i still not researching islam? i dont know. do you?

[xclusiv4321]

@omnipotence99 dang, i'm trying so hard to remember this one lecturer's name who is renowned for lecturing on all the scientific proofs of islam. don't forget about this comment, i'll try and remember his name, or at least find a book i could recommend :)

[52hogg]

I FEELED TOUCH OF THIS VIDEO

[checkyourintention]

mashallah, May Allah swt accept your effort in posting this lecture, there are many things that can be learned from it,

most importantly the knowledge of Ihsan was very helpful for me and i am sure it will help others inshallah,

message to All: please share this lecture with everyone that you know/care about...

[streetkingz69]

I'm muslim and i respect wat u believe Jamie cause u got a point in a way

[jamie30701]

Have fun worshiping allah if it makes you a better person. I am an atheist and allah is not my master nor any god that man has made up over the centuries. I believe the destiny of the world is in mans hands and not some man made god. Peace out no offense to your beliefs =)

[serkaji]

Hi jamie30701. I feel that the fact that you had the initiative to watch this vid & leave a comment is proove that deep down in you, you don't really believe nor know that ur destiny is in ur own hands and allow me to advice u to "give ur self the best chance and seek the truth" I am not saying follow islam although I am a muslim but seek answers to your questions and dig deep into any believe or religion u know of, because there is one thing for sure thats not in man's hand is death & beyound.

[checkyourintention]

with all the respect dear brother in humanity,

Allah is not a man ,

you your self did not destined to be born, you did not destined your self to be male, did you choose to be a human, did you choose to be born through your own parents, ofcourse not, then how can the destiny be on your own hand?can you make the hot pepper to grow as sweet pepper, can you make the water of the sea into milk, can you make the sky as a ground to walk on, can you write one sentence like the sentences of the Quran?

[TheMrMagnanimous]

You're not an Athiest because Athiest do not believe in the Existence of a supreme being. The fact that you are acknowledging God means that you are not Athiest.

"Man's hands" - the same man that creates mischief on the earth when he is not guided?

Jamie, keep in mind that one day you will die. No Pharoah, Walt Disney or Elvis could escape death. There will be a day that there is no doubt, a Day of Reckoning.

[faro0485]

Allah is translated into English as "the god".

Do you understand what that means? Such as "The cat sat on a mat" vs "a cat sat on the mat"

[aali1992]

MashaAllah - so important!

[tahmina1234]

i love this lecture so much. SUBHAN ALLAH

[amlh2000]

Salam Alaikoam in the Name of the Most Caring, the Most Compassioate the following are also ways we may worship or acknowledge the gifts Allah has given us:

1. Do Living Prayer or Living Acts of worship by caring well or ourselves, others and the world including all the seen and unseen with Affirmations of Faith.

continued.....

[amlh2000]

2. Seek Education, Counseling, Consultation and Medical Attention for all our challenges in ourselves, our community, nation and world, essentually skills development

3. Rise to our Station as Messiah, Prophets, Messengers, Manifestations of God an People of Spirit a Living Messiah ready to be the Trustees and Caretakers of ourselves, others and the world.

4. Recycle as much as we can for this action is one of the greatest efforts for the Iman of all beings seen and unseen.

continued

[amlh2000]

Lastly

Remember True Islam is made up of all beings, seen and unseen, it is made up of all religions and the absence of it.

Everyone are Muslims first then we are free to choose our path, do not hoist your path over others but rather offer it gently and without expectation or hidden mischiefs.

Rather share whatever your path with grace and dignity and be the best example of it as you can that is by far the greatest teacher of Islam and the best of your Iman. Salam Anne Marie Elderkin

[hogan1040]

When we say that Isa(PBUH) is the son of Allah we are referring to the Spirit of Allah in Isa(PBUH)and the choice of the limitless and all-powerful in sending Isa(PBUH). In fact, we read in the Holy Books that Isa(PBUH)has opened a way for humans to also be sons and daughters of Allah, and that is OBVIOUSLY not biological. Isa(PBUH) was born of the blessed Mirriam, a virgin, as stated in the Koran. I pray that this eases your mind and heart about "the people of the Book".

[hogan1040]

This would indeed be as repugnant to us as it is to you, but it is not what we Christians believe and it is not taught by the Injil. So much hostility is based in this deadly misunderstanding. Forgive us for not correcting this long ago. Most followers of Isa(PBUH) are unaware that the Muslims believe that we think God had a son biologically. May it never be!

[hogan1040]

I want to apologize to all followers of Islam on behalf of the followers of Isa(PBUH). We have allowed you to carry a misconception of our belief that very rightly disgusts you and we have failed to correct this perception for 1400 years. I am sorry. Please allow me to set this straight. It is not biology. No believer in God believes that that Isa(PBUH) (Jesus(PBUH)) is Allah's son through biological processes.

MashaAllah, Yasir Quadi is amazing!

Masha Allah

[nyyduh786]

Masha'Allah.

[NormalPerson1989]

Allah is One God!!

Muhammad s.a.w is the last prophet

Jesus is not His son because Allah don't have a son and wife!!!Allah don't have the partner!!!

Allah adalah Tuhan yg Maha Satu

Muhammad itu Nabi dan Rasul Allah yg Terakhir

Isa itu adalah Nabi dan Isa itu bukanlah Anak Allah kerna Allah tidak ada anak dan isteri.

Cukuplah Allah untukku!!

Ya Allah, jauhilah aku drpd menyekutukan Engkau ya Allah. Allah Tuhanku yang satu dan tak punya Sekutu. Suci Allah daripada segala yang batil.

[JesusFreek1234]

okay,that was pointless.

[JesusFreek1234]

I don't know what your "truth" is but, I believe in Abosolute Truth. I believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior. He is worthy of ALL glory and praise. Unlike the fake and unworthy god "allah".

[misc9111]

u believe am man who need'd to eat go to the Bath room and was needy like all other Humans was God. How can this be possible. Also even if he was the son of God which he isnt why would he live on earth.

Also the mean of the word God had many meaning one of them is the ever lasting; the eternal. but yet Jesus (P.B.U.H) died. You can not kill a God so therefore by deffinition he is Not a God I also do not mean to slander him at all am just saying he was not a God.

[abushtayyah]

Tell me Freek? who was controling the world why Jesus was dead for 2 days & 2 nights? was he realy dead? If he wasn't completely dead then he didn't die for anyones sin?

Talk to me how could God be ignorant of his own creation the Fig tree for example? How could God be hungry and Mad & sleepy?

What did Jesus do for 40 days & 40 nights when he went with saten? The rest will come later. Islam is the way Islam is the answer.

Peace

[xclusiv4321]

@abushtayyah salaam. as a fellow mulsim, i highly suggest that you fallow the way of the prophet and speak to people with respect and dignity :)

[Farhanizzle]

mashallah, this is one of the most beautiful lectures i have ever heard...jazakallah khair to both the speaker and the uploader...

[JesusFreek1234]

We'll see who's talking non-sense when Christ comes for his people.

[Listendudeok]

But what will you do if he doesn't come ?

[JesusFreek1234]

Oh, we wont have to worry about that. He's coming back.

[Listendudeok]

JesusFreek1234. Ok, that's alright with me. But till then, let's do something useful with our life. I could also pretend the opposite, but that's of no importance. We have to live, right ?

[JesusFreek1234]

Our lives are very useful. I live life to the fullest and praise God for it all.

[June821]

who were the prophets before mohammed.

[OsirisOne1]

...Abraham,...Mose...Jesus,Moh­ammed.

[JesusFreek1234]

i praise jesus not allah!

[Ruellian]

thats why you are a freak

[JesusFreek1234]

Yep. Jesus Freak and proud of it. We'll see who's a freak on Judgement day.

[furrydices]

Yes, I can't wait for Judgment Day too! Allahu Akbar! And by the way, "Allah" means God in arabic. Even Christian Arabs use "Allah" when reading the bible! Like I said.. I can't wait for Judgment Day!:D

[JesusFreek1234]

We'll see whos correct in the end. But, I will pray for you in hope that you will convert to Christianity.

[JesusFreek1234]

Oh, really. Because muslims are trying to take over the world and kill all of the Christians for the cause of allah. Dosen't seem like you're sorry for me.

[Rumaaysa]

in the name of ALLAAH the most merciful most gracious

muslims are trying to take over the world and kill all christians what a joke , who are the people invade iraq, afganistan and palestine

christians and jews killing muslim in the name of Terrorism but really because they are muslim countries and who are the people who lock up innocent people because of their beliefs and say it's for justice.

you need to open your eyes and see the truth.

[JesusFreek1234]

look, i dont know anyone who wants to kill muslims anytime they see one. I'm not out to kill anyone.

you need to open your eyes and see who the REAL God and messiah is.

Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior, Amen

[deeba123]

Asalamu Alykum Warahmatullah. Your brother Umar in Islam.

[WasatStudios]

SHERAZ35, the voice is Imam Fisal Mohammed's, the Imam of MCC masjid in Chicago, IL. Search for "imam faisal" videos and you will find lots of his stuff. :)

[shaykha]

TabarakAllah.

JazaakAllah Khair for making the video

[SHERAZ35]

Does anybody know the name of the person who reads Bismillah at the start of the video? He has a nice voice and I wanna hear him recite some more.

[khalifahklothing]

Imam Faisal. thank you wasatstudios.

[SHERAZ35]

Does anybody know the name of the person reciting Bismillah at the begging of the video? He's got a nice voice I wanna listen to him recite some more.

[soniiaali1]

we should also try to act upon what he said besides listening because its only the actions that will lead a person to everlasting bliss or torture.

May Allah Subhana Tala bless all of us with Janat ul Fidous and save us from the hell fire.Ameen.

[medinaemaan]

Asalamalaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakathuhu..

wow this lecture very thought provoking, had tears in my eye when the brother mentioned the thing about the angels and their sadness of not being able to worship Allah SWT, enough.. even tho they have been since their existence! Masha'allah
