THE ULTIMATE DAWAH COURSE Difficult Questions - 6th Video

[MKhabira]

Shukran for uploading this entire serious. I found it very helpful. May Allah reward you. I'm always confused as to why non muslims search for Islamic videos on youtube only to watch and make negative comments about islam. May Allah guide them.

[elwakty]

I think you are old enough and you play video games

please listen again to BILAL and what she became afterwards .

thanks anyway .

[lilaspastia1]

Philips uses the 'cultural relativism' argument ie that marrying pre-pubertal children was normal in Mohammed's day and so wasn't regarded as paedophilia, so by implication it would be regarded as that today. Sounds very plausible until you remember that Philips himself advocates old men like him marrying girl children (see 'Undercover Mosques' Channel 4 'Despatches', Jan 2006). So what does this make Philips.

I think this man should forget religion and preach about what he knows (ie nothing).

[lilaspastia1]

This man talks for ever and ever about every topic you can imagine. Why can't he try to be succinct?

Many of us have had a bellyful of Islam.

[supersmaster]

Thanks alot for uploading the video it really clears lots of misunderstandings...

Cheers

masha Allahu jazakallahu hairan perpect! dr.bilal

[mbourbi]

@iamnotwrong obviously you didnt watch anything , because you would have known that saying om** is a big sin

[someoneincanada]

To summarize... take this from me, a very openminded person with a genuine desire to learn about and embrace Islam... if you, when faced with questions from non-Muslims, answer their questions using the justifications made by the gentleman in the video, your credibility will too be lost. Because his justification is so peppered with inaccuracy, any intelligent person, if given his answers to their questions would be unimpressed and you would be no closer to showing them the Islam that you love.

[someoneincanada]

Do not read them from the viewpoint of Muslims. People always have a natural bias. It is for this reason that when I seek to learn about Islam, I do not read about Islam from non-Islam sources. If I did, I know that I wouldn't be getting the whole truth.

[someoneincanada]

Just as you (I assume) feel frustrated when people people take Islam and some of it's controversial practices at face value because really there is a long, sometimes complicated reasoning and logic behind the behavior, the same is true for Christians and North Americans in general. Please don't judge us when you haven't lived it and haven't really taken the time to understand. Read up on Christian/North American practices from Christians and North Americans.

[someoneincanada]

I think that it is easy for some Muslims to say "look at the demise of the family in north america" and use that as an excuse to justify their own situations.  I just want everyone to know that it simply is not true.

[hasancoool]

@someoneincanada Listen to Dr Zakir Naik for more precise and concrete explanations. May Allah guide us to truth !

[someoneincanada]

Because she never forced me to stay at home and also never forced me to leave, we have a wonderful loving relationship in which we talk at least once a day. She knows all the details of my life and still offers her wisdom and occasionally disciplines me if she feels that I am getting way off course. She is still my mother and always will be and I will always love and respect both her and my father.

[someoneincanada]

They encouraged me to go to university and let my wings soar so that I can experience more life than I would have, had I stayed in their town. This was hugely painful for both parents, in particular my mother. There was nothing she wanted more than to keep me at home with her so she could shelter me see me all the time BUT she knew that a lot of that was for her own self and that it would be selfish to keep me at home just for reason.

[someoneincanada]

3. The comments about family in North America are grossly incorrect and a very annoying stereotype. Contrary to what many Muslims may think, family is very important in North America. Here people have a different way of acting out that importance but it isn't at all we were portrayed. I love and care for my family immensely. I consider the counsel of my mother to be far superior to anyone else, even friends. My parents did not kick me out when I was 18 severing the ties.

[someoneincanada]

2.The woman who was charged with death for adultery who you mentioned Oprah was supporting. I know nothing of the case but assuming that yes, the woman plead guilty to adultery and was pregnant and gave birth which was deemed evidence enough to support her guilt- okay that is fine fair, she definitely committed the crime. Now, why was a paternity test not completed on her child and the alleged father? That would solve all questions. Paternity tests are by no means a new scientific technology.

[someoneincanada]

It is for this reason that a jury is carefully chosen for trial in North America. Only after a jury has determined that the person is guilty, does the punishment (ie sentence) get determined and this is by a judge. Is this system perfect? No, by no means is it perfect BUT I think it is better than what you sir, have proposed in your clip.

[someoneincanada]

1. The jury system in NA doesn't determine what the punishment is for a crime, its only purpose is to determine (by unbiased people) if someone is guilty or innocent based on a evidence from both sides of the issue. Allowing a family who is obviously emotionally wounded over the death of their loved one determine the fate of someone who may or may not have committed the crime seems irresponsible. Men and women both (not just women) make poorer decisions when under extreme stress and angst.

[someoneincanada]

Unfortunately, the gentleman in the video presents so many falsehoods about North America that he lost all credibility with me which negated any truth that he may have presented. I have never in my life commented on a youtube video but after listening to this gentleman perpetuate myths about North America, I felt compelled to create an account and correct some of his major errors.

[someoneincanada]

I am a Christian who is in a serious relationship with a Muslim. We are both Canadian. I decided to watch this clip in an effort to qualm my fears about some of the highly publicized negative connotations about Islam. I know that if my bf and I were to marry, our children would have to be raised as Muslims so now I am spending my time finding out exactly what it means to be a Muslim. I was hoping that by watching this clip, I would be able to rest some of my fears.

[FinalRev]

im curious as to what you are scared off excactly. if you feal that this man isn't credible, i can give you links to other speekers who use more from their religous texts and scriptutures to answer some of the same issues brought up in this vid. their are much more focused presentations of islam availible. pulling from sorces other then one's own opinion doesnt seem to be very big with Philips. i dont think youll find what your looking for here,(i know i didnt) you might like hamza yusuf better.

[irooni100]

THIS NIGRO NEEDS TO SHUT THE FUCK UP.

[ThSkBj]

I see and accept many of his points, but much of what he says about the western culture is factually wrong. Like parents in western cultures does care about their daughters/sisters etc. People aren't just out on their own. And if some lack family to provide security there are systems that are designed to be able to help.

[nazirdjon]

good video

[TribeofShabazz]

I don't like Bilal Philips' approach to the difficult questions at all. He is using secular and governmental examples and laws to rationalize the actions of Islam (execution, etc.. 1 man's terrorist is another person's freedom fighter (U.S.' Revolutionary War). These were appaling examples.

Do the Ahmiddiyans believe the same concerning execution of Muslims who leave their faith.  I don't like how Bilial Philips JUSTIFIES such actions which is erroneous!!!

[ugurds]

Go away with your nation of islam CULT !

[TribeofShabazz]

Who brought up the Nation of Islam? By the way who is in it? NOT ME! U wrote this message to the wrong person. I am not in the Nation of Islam (NOI). I'm in the Nation of Gods & Earths (NGE).

[ugurds]

O then your an Idol Worshipping idiot, im still curious why an idol worshipper is watching islamic movies, damn treehugger

[TribeofShabazz]

Treehuger? Are you mentally unbalanced? LOL! I watch Islamic videos (not movies moron), because I am Islamic. The members of the Nation of Gods & Earths celebrate Islam as a culture & not as a religion.

If you look in the commentary of the Maulana Muhammad Ali translation of the Qur'an it states that Islam is not a religion. It is a culture. The NOI calls it a religion, but Allah who came in the Divine Person of Master W.F. Muhammad said it was NOT a religion. Peace!

-Angelo Allah

[ugurds]

AHAHAHA !!! I knew it fuckin nation of islam cultist, go with your low life crazy ideas and kill yourself, people like you dont deserve to live.. fuckin idiot !

[ReExile]

No.. I'm not with the idea that Islam is a culture.. neither religion.. Islam is a way of Life.. As I make Islam as my life.. Islam is perfect.. beautiful way of life... complete way of life. Whoever understands Islam... He will know that Islam is perfect and peace. And he also will reason that Islam... from God Almighty.. The Creator.. Lord of the Worlds..

[TribeofShabazz]

In the 35th minute, Bilal Philips said that after the Gulf War, he and others who were helping new Muslims buy gold and silver. GOLD! Gold is considered haram in Islam! BILAL PHILIPS IS WRONG!

[ugurds]

You FOOL, its haram for men wearing it, not for woman, you are a blind idiot .. damn ignorant cow !

[TribeofShabazz]

LOL! How old are you? Three years old? LOL!

Y can't we disagree with each other without insulting one another? I'm not even a Muslim and I'm showing the spirit of the Propghet greater than you are.

[ugurds]

Shut up you retarded hypocrite, people like you make me sick, go educate yourself before you can even SPEAK about things that go beyond your IQ, you fool !

[nazirdjon]

Bro, may you be blessed. i liked your channel, but you it is better to use better words when expressing yourself. i can't stand when Muslims insult others and use haram words to express themselves. speaking nicely is also a sunnah, isn't it? thank you. assalomu alaykum :))

[ugurds]

Im sorry Bro, may Allah Azza Wa Jall bless you too, sometimes .. I go beyond my limits.. sometimes people make me just mad.. but as always i keep my head cool.. ;) thx for liking my channel :) i like ur chanal 2 ;) Wa Alaikoem Salaam Wa Rahmatoellah

[TribeofShabazz]

Don't worry about beloved. I forgive you. As-Salaam-Alaikum.

Mathematically Yours,

Angelo Allah

[hasancoool]

@TribeofShabazz He never said that 

[TribeofShabazz]

Just b/c the West still hits their women despite their laws and religious morales DOES NOT JUSTIFY Bilal Philips' belief that women may be struck.  There are many things that I love and agree that he has said in this DAWH series, however I must strongly disagree with hitting your wife.

[ugurds]

The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said: If you hit your wife, do it with a small feather.. so in other words. do it gentil.. dont hurt her .. idiot !!

[ramlb258]

part2: 90 years old(also according to u christians), so also the step ather of ur God is a Pedophile. So what we have is a god raped the mother of ur God. A God(jesus) son of a raped mother and a pedophile stepfather.

Sick People wallahi.

[ramlb258]

Part1: really,christians r hypocrites. they r talking about our Prophet, judging him according to western laws. Well listen I have a surprise 4 u. I live in Germany and I can tell even we r in 2009 girls r having Sex even before the age of 13. If u consider our Prophet a pedophile, well ur God will go in history as the first god raped a girl, cause according to christianty, Mary was about 12 as she was pregnant with Jesus and Joseph, who was married to Mary before she got pregnant, was

[amroshah007]

I believe we should say what its most likely ..(correct me if i am wrong ) ..

Hazrat abu bakkar who was elder then even Prophet Mohammad (pbuh), and at his old age, he wants to put her young dughter into a save place where ,her safity,dignity and respect maintain..before he dies.. he therefore ask Prophet (pbuh) to marry her..because without being married, In Islam you cannot live or take any women in ur costody.. Prophet(pbuh) most wives were orphans or widows, he gave them shelter. Alhamd..

[norasweetcakes]

LMAO DIFFERNT STROKES!!1

loooooool

[dln3472]

Of all the things I've learned about the life of Allah's Messenger (SAWS) this is the first one I've had an issue/concern with. The explanation given does not help in alleviating this concern. A child is a child in my book. I guess I don't have to agree...Allah (SWT) and his Messenger know best.

[khalifahklothing]

This is a problem because shaytan will use this and lead you astray. The thing is what were the prophet's intentions when he married? Did he like little girls? Aisha is the only virgin he married. Did the kuffar of his time have a problem with this, and use it against him? No, but they did have a problem when he did other things that went against ttheir "culture", like marrying Zaynab. Which is a commandment in the Quran to him. And his marriage with Aisha is from Allah aswell. Clear your doubts

[khalifahklothing]

And watch these videos:

watch?v=5kSbtTz76Gw

watch?v=aeIFubRerrk

[heidi1981work]

Aisha was already engaged to another man before a woman made a proposition to the messenger pbuh to marry Aisha. (the engagement got broken after her family became Muslims)

there are several Arabs and non-Arabs, Muslims and non-Muslims whose grandmothers got married at the age of 10, 11 and 14. this happened only within the past couple centuries let alone 14 centuries ago.

[agreeableviews816]

Allah subhana wa ta'ala says in the Qur'an that Muhammad sala Allahu 'alaihi wa salaam is the best example for us. The various marriages that our beloved Prophet were involved in throughout his life were the limits ordained by Allah in the Qur'an.

[deeba123]

excellent reply may God bliss you my bro

[agreeableviews816]

Also, it is a known fact that women of around the same age of 'Aisha 'alahi as-salaam reach the beginnings of puberty, enabling them to be married and comsumated for that matter.

[obeid3434]

That's still go on till now, there is really no age factor 10,16,18 or 25 and you need to know the culture and the area and we are talking marriage. I am sure you live in the western world with these ideas in your head. But I till you go check any school wherever you live and see how young there are having sex!

[Mathenaut]

That you can't see the difference between two teenagers having sex and an old pervert taking advantage of a kid, honestly explains alot about this religion.

[obeid3434]

Look fool! I am saying my opinion. Find somebody of your level!

[Mathenaut]

Well, I didn't think you that far below me level on the onset....but if you insist.

That was short.

[obeid3434]

I thought You were an idiot!

[itzanaltime69]

@dln3472 akhi Aisha RA was not a child when the prophet married her she was an adolescent. Open a medical dictionary up and a child that has undergone puberty is then an adolescent another name for teenager. Americans make problems about this but in 1812 is when the law was passed that a bride must be atleast 14 before that it was younger.

[dln3472]

Of all the things I've learned about the life of Allah's Messenger (SWT) this is the first time I've had some issues or concerns. But I guess I don't have to agree...do I?

[bytedildo]

hehe..it's so funny to me that each religion has to explain it's own written discrepancies.

But what you are saying is one can marrie a kid and it's not considered to be a pedophile.

If you were as good historian as you think you are ,maybe you wouldn't sell this nonsense, cause you woulnd't be a religious person, cause you would know how religion was made and how the "sacret" books were written.

[binsaif]

You speak of written discreprancies. Kindly state them with regards to Islam. What he is saying is that as soon as a person has developed the ability to reproduce it is permitted for him or her to do so. This is the natural law. Were we to only have sex at 16 or 18 then our Creator would have had us reach puberty at that age. However, that is not the case.

[binsaif]

Imagine a young lion developing the ability to reproduce and then waiting 5 years to do so. That never happens in nature. What does happen is once the lion develops the ability to reproduce it does so. That is the natural law. Now humans once they develop the ability to reproduce they have the right to do so then and they have the right to delay it a day a month a year or years.
