  • its sad that in EVERY video related to islam there are arguments  of some kind preety sad , but why are there people that aren't even muslim watching this video than talking crap about islam i don't understand jeez just horrible

  • This young brother is right! I lived in the US for over 50 yrs. now. Everytime I tried to go to the mosque, I just couldnt find myself to return, ppl. w/such arrogance b/c they had been praying, just praying, towards anyone new. I cant tell you guys how many ppl. they chased away b/c someone wasnt dressed right, didnt give enough, had long hair, short hair, it was worse than a scene at a bar. I'm not exaggerating either. Inna lillah, the control issues some ppl. had.

    peace/salam

see all

  • @jeethha1 mine too..

  • How do you get the title "Scholar"? same as you get the title Doctor

  • ASA, Bro Nouman you have said a great deal in this brief video. There are many with knowledge and NO humility, which is not a good thing. I thank you for putting the reminder out there. May Allah (swt) continue to bless you and all who truly are seeking it with understanding.

  • MashaAllah dear brother, may Allah give you the knowledge you really need and make you a man of ehlul-dhikr. I hope that one of your next videos will be about a smiliar topic - Humility after getting a lot of knowledge, because many people are worst in point of humility after their learn for years, they think that they are better than someone else - Sheytans main sin. Esselamu aleykum ve rahmetullah!

  • @needfreetraffic As for a youtube video describing the nature of God, I recommend a video by the same speaker Nouman Ali Khan, where he explains chapter 112 of the quran ( a concise description of God in the Qur'an) search: "Surah Al Ikhlas Tafsir By Nouman Ali Khan-Pt 5" . In this section of the lecture he talks about how the word 'Ahad' (unique) is used to describe God in the Qur'an. If you are able to watch the entirety of this lecture I'm sure it will answer your questions :)

  • @needfreetraffic As for the fate of those who never come into contact with islam, it is well known that God will not punish them nor hold them accountable for something they were unaware of. Rather God will only hold accountable people who were exposed to His True message. You can find a very thorough and academic discussion on this by a very reputable scholar named Yasir Qadhi on youtube: Salvific Exclusivity - Yasir Qadhi - A Theological Responce 1/6

  • @needfreetraffic Hi there, as for your first question: by asking God, the Lord of the heavens and the earth, to guide you it is demonstrating humility towards Him and acknowledging that only He can show anyone the true way of how to live life. The fact that you have an understanding of the religion of Islam is in itself a blessing and a mercy from God, opening your heart and showing you true guidance.

  • Moreover, what will be the fate of those who never come in contact with Islam( in the shariah sense)? Please accept my apologies for the barrage of questions, but I am trying to paint an understanding of the characteristics of God in Islam. I would really appreciate if someone could get back to me with some sound answers. Also, a YouTube video describing the nature of God would really help the cause. Thank you, and if the answers satisfy me, I will submit to God right here on YouTube.

  • Hi there, I am looking into Islam, but I have a question that bugs me. When scholars tell you to ask your Lord to guide you in your decision of choosing the right religion, how will this help? I mean you will naturally be inclined to side towards the religion that you have understood the most (and in some case it will not be Islam). So would it be just on God's part if you are thrown into hell for this (provided you lived a morally outstanding life in your alternate religion)?

  • This lecture changed my life....
