Dr. Zaid Ghazzawi conducted his education in a traditional way by completing a B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering, M.Sc. and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from The University of Surrey (UK). But during His Ph.D. he started re-evaluating the way education is done in the world and contemplating the idea that education can by made much better by adopting a completely different approach compared to what people are accustomed to.

The basic premise of Dr. Ghazzawi's approach to education is to find direct solutions to real life problems facing people by turning to the verses of The Quran by pondering upon them to deduce knowledge that can be implemented to solve these problems facing people.

  • @tigerclaw1000 I ma curious to know your response, especially to show me an example of a TRUE Islam society/State.

  • @going2sleep 2/2 Mohamed's words: "'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him" Clergy, scholars agree that Mohamed instructed the believers to kill the one who live Islam(apostates)

    ""THERE IS NO COMPULSION IN RELIGION." " < congratulations you have found another contradiction in the qur'an

    There is no debate about it almost all agree on the death penalty for apostates in Islam.

    And i am still waiting for that TRUE Islamic state.

  • @going2sleep I told you USA is a religious majority, so is Israel!

    And i asked you to give an example of an TRUE islamic state/kingom, in history even.

    And no that were i didn't misquoted, that's a common apologetic for that verse, Muslims claim that it means "leave theme" or "gently touch(with a brush)" but no secular linguist looked at the word used, and its the same word used in verse to describe how to punish captured enemies.

    1/2

  • @tigerclaw1000 Humanist/secularist = Israel Zionist regime and war mongering U.S.A. No that verse you misquoted does not say to beat them. (1)You don't know the Arabic word used. 2) You don't know how Quran is interpreted. So stop misquoting things you don't know anything about. That is why majority of converts to Islam are 27 year old WOMEN. Because as you say they want to get beat up by men. There is no death to people who change belief when Quran says "THERE IS NO COMPULSION IN RELIGION."

  • @going2sleep "humanist/atheist massacres" ??? what are you talking about?! what massacres??

    Before you say Hitler, Stalin.. they wore not humanist. They embraced the supernatural(the mystical cults, telekinesis, remote viewing etc.)

    "No, my religion does not give you right to beat women"

    Qur'an 4:34 - wife beating

    Sahih Bukhari 4:52:260 - Death for apostasy(if family member reject religion you have to kill him!)

    Mohamed: "'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him"

  • @tigerclaw1000 In history Jews preferred being in governments where there were Muslim rule more than Christians rule. No, my religion does not give you right to beat women or kill family members.It would not prosper in the 21st century. There is violence in any world view you have. What the humanist/atheist massacres and havoc they caused pails in comparison to what God fearing people have done. Simply because we understanding we will be questioned for after we die. You don't.

  • @going2sleep maybe 48% of Americans are below poverty line at some point in the crisis, But USA is religious majority not secular/humanistic.

    Give me an example of a Islamic state in history theme.

  • @going2sleep Shortly after Mohamed death, there ware civil wars between Muslims, this your divine government? they wore 100% Islamic!

    Rights? Right to kill your family member if he levies your religion of peace?!

    Right to beat you wife if she docent listen to you!

    What rights do gays have?

    What rights did atheist have under Mohamed rule!?

    Humanist do not impose anything on any one, we simply protect the basic human rights that your religion of peaces has the habit to violate!

  • @tigerclaw1000 48%of Americans are below poverty line, look it up! Like I said there is no Islam in those countries they are based on dictatorship and complete against Islamic world view.The religion of Islam gives the most rights and honor to Muslims.Humanist don't know what honor is.Ask yourself which kind of governments attacks other countries, kill the innocent, have military bases in foreign countries, forces its world view on other countries.It is only secularists/humanists

  • @tigerclaw1000 You are rich, great for you. by any chance you are not from the emirates?

    you are one man!

    Stat show that islamic states are poor, underdeveloped, bad medical care.

    and if theocracy is so good, why arent you and Muslim countries the supper powers now? you had gos divine knowladge in the qur'an and the perfect manual for life. and 1400 years!!!! So why are you not at the top?
