Guys, as a new revert to Islam, I'm of course learning every single day. Therefore, today we're going to check out the 10 worst Haram things in Islam. By now, I'm fairly confident that I do know what is Haram and what is Halal. But nevertheless, maybe we are in for a surprise today. Guys, before we start the video, if you enjoy the content, leave me a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel if you haven't already and check out the links in the description box below. And now, with no further ado, let's have a look. In Islam, certain activities and behaviors are considered Haram, meaning forbidden or prohibited. This is to ensure that Muslims live their lives according to Allah's teachings and avoid actions that could be harmful to themselves and others. One, idolatry. Worshiping idols or any form of association with partners in worship is considered a grave sin in Islam. Yeah, this is called shirk in Islam. This is the number one sin. However, coming from a Christian background myself, in the 10 commandments, what do we read first? Number one is, you shall have no gods before me. Which means you should worship God alone without attaching any partners to Him. There is no God but God. And this is why I reverted to Islam. Because as Muslims, we do believe that the Christians went wrong there. They have the 10 commandments within the Old Testament where it clearly describes who God is and that there is only one God but then they attributed partners to God. Be it the Holy Spirit, be it Jesus, seeing God as a Trinity. You only worship besides Allah idols and you produce a falsehood. Indeed, those you worship besides Allah do not possess for you the power of provision. So seek from Allah provision and worship Him and be grateful to Him. To Him you will be returned. Many Christians ask me why I reverted to Islam. Why would you revert to Islam? Christianity is a monotheistic religion as well. Listen guys, we have to distinguish between Christianity, the Bible and Jesus. I make the argument that we do not have the fully preserved message of Jesus in the first place. If we look into the Bible, there are certain passages attributed to Jesus and maybe those are really things that Jesus said. Maybe they are not. We don't have 100% proof for those claims. If you look throughout the Bible, you will find many passages that point towards monotheism of course but then other passages that show us a polytheistic way of looking at God. And of course a very humanizing aspect that is attributed to God as well. Starting with Genesis which is not only found within the Christian scriptures but of course within Judaism. There it is described that God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh day. In the Quran on the other hand we read that Allah needs no rest. And this way Islam clearly stands out. We're not attributing any human weaknesses to God. Of course not. And moreover it is only Islam that has the concept of Shirk and Tawhid. Those two concepts are complementary because you have Tawhid the pure unity of God and then you have Shirk which clearly describes that everything that you try to add to God is not God. 2. Consumption of Intoxicants Another significant prohibition in Islam is the consumption of any kind of intoxicants. Any kind of alcohol, drugs or any other mind-altering substances. Muslims are expected to refrain from the use of any such intoxicants as it is considered a grave sin in Islam. So yet again comparing this to Christianity I come from an Orthodox Christian background. The purest form of Christianity if you will but nevertheless within Christianity with an Orthodox Christianity. Yes we do have the prohibition of so-called Pharma Kiya which means we shouldn't take any mind-altering substances. However this does not apply to alcohol and this was absolutely crazy to me. When I talked to the priests they told me that all the drugs are prohibited. You shall not touch any drug. No weed, no mushrooms etc etc you name it. Fine I agree with that. However when it came down to alcohol of course you can enter the church and drink wine at the altar and this was absolutely insane to me because full disclosure here I have nothing to hide. In my past I experimented with all kinds of mind-altering substances and out of all those substances I can say that alcohol is the worst. Alcohol leads to fatal car crashes, to domestic violence, to cheating, to promiscuous behavior in the first place. What do people do when they go out to the clubs on the weekends? The main drug of choice is of course alcohol. And when I looked into the Christian church and I saw them consuming alcohol in the churches this was insanity to me. And the same happened when I went to the Christian monasteries. We gathered to dinner and people started drinking wine. I even saw drunk priests and moms drunk, completely drunk and this is why I say you have to distinguish between Christianity and the Bible and Jesus because if you look into the Bible the Bible claims as well that a drunkard shall never inherit the kingdom of God. Which means you cannot drink and enter the kingdom of God. You're not going to get into paradise. But then the church tells you that it's a-okay to consume wine. Hypocrisy. This is because these substances are harmful to the body, mind and spirit. It's a hundred percent. To cheating, to damaging health effects, illegal activities, and a departure from the teachings of Allah. Yeah, degeneracy. And you who have believed do not approach prayer while you are intoxicated until you know what you are saying or in a state of jinnabah except those passing through a place of prayer until you have washed your whole body. And if you are ill or on a journey or one of you comes to the place of relieving himself or you have contacted women and find no water then seek clean earth and wipe over your faces and your hands with it. Indeed, Allah is ever pardoning and forgiving. Three, gambling. Gambling which includes any form of betting or games of chance is prohibited in Islam. Muslims are expected to refrain from placing bets or engaging in any form of activity that involves the exchange of money for a chance to win a prize. And this is truly a shame. I grew up in Germany and I was surrounded by so-called Muslims and they were placing sport bets. They were in the casinos. They were gambling. I never knew that it is part of Islam to refrain yourself from gambling. I thought there is no ruling whatsoever. From a Christian background, I know as well that there is no ruling when it comes down to gambling and therefore growing up like that, I of course knew that gambling is bad. I saw people falling into debt, etc, etc. But I never thought that it is a commandment of God to abstain from it, let alone that it is a commandment within Islam. And therefore I have to say yet again, Muslims in Germany, you did a poor job in conveying Islam. The Muslim umma in Germany has to restrain from those things first and foremost to point out a beautiful example. This is because gambling goes against the principles of hard work and earning a livelihood in a lawful manner, which is highly valued in Islam. O believers, intoxicants, gambling, idols, and drawing lots of decisions are all evil of Satan's handiwork. So shan them, so you may be successful. Adultery Adultery is considered a significant sin in Islam. Muslims are expected to refrain from engaging in sexual activities outside of marriage, which is considered a sacred and lawful union in the religion. Adultery is considered a violation of the sanctity of marriage and goes against the principle of moral and ethical living and do not approach unlawful sexual intercourse. Indeed, it is ever an immorality and is evil as a way. Even though within Christianity we don't have a Sharia, we don't have a law so to speak, still it is commonly accepted of course that adultery is absolutely prohibited within Christianity. The same of course applies as well in Judaism and no wonder in Islam. This is crystal clear and why is it so? Is it because religious people are prude and they're also boring? No, of course not, because it destroys lives. And we see this experiment right now in the West. People commit adultery almost on a daily basis, there is absolutely no issues with fornicating around, sleeping around, going out on parties, meeting new people, just having fun and then you see the same people falling into the other traps, into the other sins such as alcoholism and moreover abortions and whatnot. In their thirties, most of those women that committed such acts are absolutely shattered and then they're gonna tell you, I'm gonna be a dog mommy. Five, ho- Can't even say this nowadays without being banned. Sexual conduct between individuals of the same sex is prohibited and is considered a grave sin. The Quran refers to this as lustful desire and it is considered against the natural order of things. Prominent Muslim scholar, Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, states the following, the spread of this depraved practice in a society disrupts its natural life pattern and makes those who practice it slaves to their lusts, depriving them of decent taste, decent morals in a decent manner of living. We have to be very, very careful what we say here on this platform, therefore I'm going to be as PC as possible. First and foremost, objectively speaking, in the three Abrahamic faiths, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, we have the same perspective on ho- actuality. All three religions regard ho- actuality as sinful behavior. The Sheikh in the video said it correctly, those people become slaves to their lust. Why is that so? Let's dissect this. If you are in a committed marriage, of course you can have sex to enjoy the company of your partner. Nothing wrong with that. However, the main purpose of sex is crystal clear. It is about making children. This is how it works. And if you treat it as such and you don't pervert it into just lustful behavior, it will stay productive, it will stay fertile. A man and a woman, they're coming together, they're having sex for the sake of pro-creation. After that, the body of the woman changes. She becomes pregnant, her shape changes, her mood changes, etc., etc., you name it. However, once the woman is impregnated, it becomes crystal clear to the man as well what he has done and what function sex serves. Yes, yet again, it is beautiful. It is a beautiful bond between man and woman. However, the purpose is to procreate, to create children. And if you are in a committed relationship and your main focus is your family building a strong family of believing children in this sense, then your lust becomes secondary as a productive father. You wake up in the morning, you work, you're building houses, communities, you're creating a beautiful family, you're teaching your children, you're occupied with so many things. However, if you practice same sex, what are you really building? You're not building anything because you cannot build a family. It is impossible. And therefore, the only reason for your sexual intercourse is pleasure. That's it. In the Quran we read, Have you seen he who has taken his own desires as God? This is what it boils down to. You're not interested in creating a family. You're not interested in building a legacy. You're only interested in getting your load off in satisfying that need. This is all you care about. And this is why if you start engaging in such sexual behavior, it is a downward spiral. All you're chasing is your desires. The story of the people of Prophet luth. Lot, peace be upon him, as narrated in the Quran, should be sufficient for us. Prophet luth's people were addicted to this shameless depravity, abandoning natural, pure, lawful relations with women in the pursuit of this unnatural, foul, and illicit practice. That is why their Prophet luth, peace be upon him, told them. What of all creatures do you approach males and leave the spouses whom your Lord has created for you? Indeed, you are people transgressing all limits. Six, interest, riba. Interest or riba is strictly prohibited in Islam. Any transaction involving interest or usury is considered unlawful as it goes against the principles of fair trading and sharing profits justly. Yet again, I have to be very careful in what I say here, because we do not want to upset certain people. However, if you look into riba, if you look into debt, if you look into the banking system, if you look into the families that created the banking system, you will always find the same pattern. Follow the money. It will show you who is behind the system and it will show you why the system is so godless. If we eradicate interest, we already solved half of the puzzle. You have to understand this. And this is why I find it so sad when so-called truth seekers do not see this issue. It is the elephant in the room. If you're truly a truth seeker, you look down the rabbit hole, you've been rat-pilled, then of course you will understand who runs the show. And if you know that, you will find Islam as well. That was one of the pathways that I took. I saw who the bad guys are in this equation and I saw who was fighting evil. It was the Muslims. It is the Muslims. It is only the Muslims. The Christians, they're siding of course with the military-industrial complex and they're fighting actively against the Muslims. So if you follow down the rabbit hole, you will see who the good guys are, who the bad guys are, and then you will see that the only solution is Islam. There is no other religion prohibiting ribba. Islam encourages trade and commerce that is based on mutual benefit and fairness for both parties. 7. Gossiping and slandering Gossiping and slandering are considered sinful in Islam. Muslims are expected to refrain from talking behind the backs of others or spreading rumors that could be harmful to others. The Quran strictly prohibits spreading rumors or engaging in any form of behavior that could lead to defamation of another person's character. All I have to say about this point is, I wish we would see more Muslims adhering to this type of behavior on YouTube. Allah prohibits in the Quran by comparing it to the disgusting act of cannibalism. O you who have believed, avoid many negative assumptions. Indeed, some assumption is a sin and do not spy or backbite each other. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it. So hate backbiting and fear Allah. Indeed, Allah is accepting of repentance and merciful. Let this be a beautiful reminder to all of us, guys, because let's be honest here, man. If you're talking to somebody and that person is talking smack about another person behind their back, you can be sure that they're doing the exact same thing to you. So why would you engage with such a person in the first place? And the same applies as well to YouTube videos. Even if you're just watching those videos where Muslims talk bad about other Muslims, you're supporting the backbiting. Theft or any deceitful behavior involving taking something unlawful that belongs to someone else is strictly prohibited in Islam. Muslims are expected to respect the property and belongings of others and should avoid any action that results in the loss or harm of another person's property. It's, of course, self-explanatory that we should not steal. The same applies to Christians as well. In the Ten Commandments you read, you shall not steal. Therefore, this is a universal rule for obvious reasons. However, I would like to get into the Sharia and the perception of it in the West. The West never will say, oh, it is barbaric to chop off hands for stealing. But is it truly? Think about it. Do you want to live in a society where you have absolutely no real penalty for somebody stealing? It is, of course, a huge crime, if you think about it. The mother of my wife, they went to the airport in France and she got robbed by an adult, physically fit, young man. This man has absolutely no need to steal from an elderly lady in her sixties. How is this justified? Of course, it is not justified. No, it is atrocious and it is a huge sin. Therefore, if we see this as something wrong within our society, why wouldn't we punish it harsher? If you have so little punishment for stealing, it will happen again and again and again. And you see that in the West. Pickpocketing is rampant and therefore I'm really wondering why people have such a problem with the ruling of chopping off hands. If anything, this would discourage people from further theft. And this is an amazing thing. Are you a thief? I'm not a thief, so I don't care what happens to the thief because I know I'm not stealing. My children are not stealing. Thank God. My father was not a thief. So what are you worried for? Do you want to encourage thieves in your society? No, you don't get it. Murder, killing another human being except in cases of self-defense or in the name of justice is strictly prohibited in Islam. The sanctity of human life is considered invaluable and every human being is expected always to preserve human life. Whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption done in the land it is as if he had slain mankind entirely and whoever saves one it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. So yet again this rule applies in Christianity and in Judaism as well, you shall not kill. However, within Islam it is more precise. It tells you in self-defense it is of course okay to kill. Obviously, in Christianity they tell you it is not good to kill then on the other hand they are going to war in the Old Testament then they tell you you shall point to the other cheek if you are hit. So it is very, very confusing. On top of that you do have the crusades so Christians killed after all. So therefore the question becomes yet again what is right what is wrong in Christianity? Islam is not vague at all. We have clear rulings for what is halal and what is haram. 10. Consumption of Pork Muslims are forbidden from consuming pork products as it is considered unclean. This is mentioned in the Quran and is considered a significant taboo among the followers of Islam. He is only forbidden to you dead animals blood, the flesh of swine and that which has been dedicated to others other than Allah. A little fun fact here on the side when I lived in Germany the only thing I knew about Islam is that pork is prohibited within Islam. This wasn't due to my ignorance alone because when I looked at the Muslims in my environment the so-called Muslims the only thing that they really considered haram was eating pork. They drank alcohol they smoked cigarettes they fornicated were taking drugs were involved in all kinds of criminal activity but then they said pork is haram bro, I'm Muslim but whoever is forced by necessity neither desiring it nor transgressing its limits there is no sin upon him indeed a lies forgiving and merciful. This is a beautiful display yet again where Islam is absolutely precise absolutely concise and crystal clear. It tells you swine is prohibited you shall not eat it. However if it is a life and death situation you are dying in a desert you have nothing else to eat and out of a sudden a pig pops up yeah well then by all means eat the damn pig of course because it is a survival situation. The reason why I'm mentioning the desert is you have Paul on his way to Damascus going through the desert and out of a sudden after not eating for three days he has a vision of Jesus in which Jesus tells him hey eat whatever you will basically right? So couldn't this have been if it happened the way that they describe it a survival situation because Jesus Christ may peace be upon him certainly did not eat any pig during his lifetime in this Jewish environment of course he did not moreover he said he came to fulfill the law and he wasn't here to break the law and within the law you find as well which animals shall be clean and which animals shall be filthy for you swine being one of them. So therefore yet again you have so much contradiction within Christianity on one page it says the swine shall be filthy for you and another page says eat whatever you want nothing defiles you that exits your mouth how does this make sense man? These ten haram actions in Islam are considered sinful and are strictly prohibited for followers of the religion Muslims are expected to maintain their behavior and conduct according to the teachings of the Qur'an and the traditions of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him it is important to note that while these things are considered haram in Islam our religion also emphasizes forgiveness and redemption and encourages individuals to strive for self-improvement and moral excellence All right guys this is it for today's video as I mentioned throughout it I was already familiar with all of those 10 points mentioned the reason being is I actually read my Bible back in the day as a Christian and therefore within Christianity pork is not haram however within the Old Testament in the Bible pork is haram and the same applies as well to the rest of those harams you will find every single point of those within the Bible and I personally believe I'm not a scholar this is my opinion that we can find glimpses of the true message within the Bible as well after all there has been revelation of God and people then corrupted it of course and bended it to their will especially Paul in the later days however you can find all of those halals and harams within the Bible as well if you have the eyes to see and therefore back in the day when I was a teenager I opened up the Bible I saw that the swine shall be filthy for us and then I looked around and saw all the Christians eating pork this is when I saw that they are hypocrites and this is when I saw I have to stop with it and this is why I stopped eating pork over 20 years ago by now so therefore I want to make this point very very clear oftentimes you read in my comment section ah Mashallah you have so much knowledge about Islam no I don't I'm not a scholar and I'm not pretending to be very very humble here I really do not have much knowledge about Islam I just reverted yes I read the whole Quran I'm reading hadith I'm reading other excellent works of Islamic scholars but nevertheless I do not have much knowledge I come from a Christian background I read the Bible I visited the monasteries I went to the pilgrimages and so therefore I reflected upon the three books the Torah, the Bible and the Quran and once you do that you see a red thread it becomes crystal clear to you what is halal and what is haram but to say that I have some extra ordinary knowledge about Islam would be plain wrong I want to urge you if you guys are seeking Islamic knowledge go to an Islamic scholar the channel is still called Bobby's Perspective and therefore all I'm doing here hints is sharing my perspective and documenting my way you can see that on my channel at least in the videos that are not deleted by YouTube you can see how was a vegan a raw vegan into bodybuilding shamanism new age and what not finally coming into Islam alhamdulillah all right guys but this is it for today's video if you liked it leave it a thumbs up if you haven't subscribed already guys please do so and if you want to support this channel via Patreon for example all the links are in the description box below thank you so much for your ongoing support guys and as always may god bless you all much love and peace
