00:00:00--> 00:00:02

It was a great privilege

00:00:03--> 00:00:05

to have been given this opportunity

00:00:06--> 00:00:08

of sharing with you

00:00:09--> 00:00:10

some thoughts

00:00:11--> 00:00:15

on the subject of Islam and other religions,

00:00:18--> 00:00:31

I can safely divide, we can safely divide the religions of the world into two major groups. One we might describe as the Aryan religions, and the other, the cemetery.

00:00:32--> 00:00:40

Among the army religions, I would count Buddhism, Hinduism, and Zoroastrianism.

00:00:41--> 00:00:48

Among the seventh religions, of course, it would be Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

00:00:50--> 00:00:52

The last three the Semitic religions,

00:00:53--> 00:00:57

they from the musqueam point of view, they have a common origin.

00:00:58--> 00:01:05

And we in Islam, we do not really think that these three are different.

00:01:06--> 00:01:08

According to the Muslim belief,

00:01:09--> 00:01:13

there is no such thing as Judaism. And there is no such thing as Christianity.

00:01:15--> 00:01:23

We turn them on Islam, I mean, the teachings of Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad, we say, was Islam.

00:01:24--> 00:01:31

And with the preponderance, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed, they were Muslims.

00:01:33--> 00:01:38

Now, when the question arises, what do you think of today?

00:01:39--> 00:01:55

Is it a compulsion? What do you think of Christianity if it doesn't exist? We see now what it means is, is that we believe that the teaching of these three great personalities, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad was one.

00:01:56--> 00:02:06

And the truth, Judaism or Christianity that terms didn't exist in the lifetimes of the people, you know, was supposed to perform in the face.

00:02:08--> 00:02:09

For example,

00:02:10--> 00:02:12

if Moses was alive today,

00:02:14--> 00:02:19

and if we questioned him if he said, Oh, Moses, what is your religion?

00:02:21--> 00:02:26

I personally do not expect him to say that my religion is tonight.

00:02:27--> 00:02:29

Because this is a term which was never heard.

00:02:32--> 00:02:42

This word Judaism is not in the Old Testament, or the Torah, of the Jews, or the Talmud, or the Messner. It is not to be found any.

00:02:44--> 00:02:46

Now how does this work come along?

00:02:50--> 00:02:57

I believe that when the Jews and the conquered Palestine, Palestine was divided among the tribes,

00:02:59--> 00:03:02

each tribe occupying a certain specific area,

00:03:03--> 00:03:12

and the children of Judah, Judah, the eldest son of Jacob, the area which he occupied was known as Judea.

00:03:13--> 00:03:36

And the people from the outside, they said, or they described the children, the religion of the children of Judah in Judea in July. And this time, they do seem to have taken a liking to it, and they accepted it, but search for it. In the Old Testament, the word is not there, the whole of the Old Testament

00:03:37--> 00:03:45

power in the mismatch is not there in the Talmud is not there. This is how the word But Moses,

00:03:47--> 00:04:01

we expect him to say that my religion is a religion of total submission to the will of God, which is a very lengthy but beautiful definition of what he was out to do to preach the religion of

00:04:02--> 00:04:05

the religion of total submission to go to

00:04:07--> 00:04:09

one word for that in Arabic language is Islam.

00:04:12--> 00:04:23

When we come to Christianity, the same principles apply that Jesus Christ in his lifetime, he didn't hear the word Christianity, nor did he say,

00:04:26--> 00:04:36

if he was with us here today, the second coming and if we could have been prevented the question in simple Jesus, what is your religion?

00:04:38--> 00:04:44

I do not expect him to say Christian, because if he did, ask him further, what should we belong to?

00:04:46--> 00:04:48

Are you a Roman Catholic Church,

00:04:49--> 00:04:59

or a Jehovah's Witness, what Christianity you belong to? So in other words, I expect Jesus to say that my religion is a religion.

00:05:00--> 00:05:01

abodo submission to God.

00:05:02--> 00:05:05

And one word for that in the Arabic language is Islam.

00:05:07--> 00:05:11

Islam. The word Islam comes from the word Salaam son speech.

00:05:14--> 00:05:25

In its religious connotation, Islam means a religion of total submission to the will of God. And the one who submits to such a system is called a Muslim.

00:05:26--> 00:06:10

Again, the root word comes from Salama, to submit, peace, achieve peace by submitting to a higher authority. And we who follow the religion of Islam, we say we are the Muslims, meaning we have submitted our will, to the will of God, whatever he wants us to do, we are prepared to do. He says, according to the information we have received, through Muhammad, that we shall not worship any other god but Allah, since we have said, we are told that we must accept Mohammed is a messenger of God, we accept that we mustn't touch alcohol. We will not say we can't eat babies, you know, we only did they don't gamble if you want to gamble with your spouse for one whole month, and that we will find

00:06:10--> 00:06:21

everything that we are told, we say we claim that we submit, and one word for that is Muslim means one who has submitted. So we have another Muslim.

00:06:22--> 00:06:32

Jesus was a Muslim, in the Quran, because his disciples were Muslims, meaning they submitted the rules to the will of God. Muslim doesn't mean the follow up is one when submitted.

00:06:33--> 00:06:35

In the garden, if you remember that

00:06:36--> 00:06:39

Jesus Christ, Christ is Lord and he said,

00:06:40--> 00:07:12

Oh, my God, if it be possible, let this capacity for me, but not as I will put as out. Now that not as I will. But as Darwin, one word for that would be Muslim. He submitted, whatever God wants you to do, is prepared to go through with it. So we say Moses was a Muslim, Jesus was a Muslim, Muhammad, Abraham was a Muslim, anyone who submits his will, to the will of God is a Muslim, and the religion, they all follow Islam.

00:07:14--> 00:07:19

Now, with regards to the religion books, these three great religions Judaism, Christianity, Islam,

00:07:20--> 00:07:25

the two are contained in one book, July 11, Christianity, the Old Testament in the New Testament.

00:07:26--> 00:07:31

The Old Testament is the Bible of the Jews, the old image we put together the Bible of the Christians.

00:07:33--> 00:07:43

When we use this, we say that if there is such a thing as an Old Testament, and if there is such a thing as a New Testament, we say that there is such a thing as a last testament.

00:07:45--> 00:08:05

You see the Jews. He comes at the end of the book of Molokai, in the Old Testament, he puts a full stop, he doesn't want to know anymore. What I'm about to give is given into the pocket, the Old Testament, the Christian feels that the Jew is doing justice to himself, by not coming a step forward,

00:08:07--> 00:08:09

into greater knowledge and revelation of God.

00:08:10--> 00:08:15

The Muslim says the same thing to the Christian, is a YouTuber doing the very same thing as the Jews. When

00:08:16--> 00:08:29

you come to the end of the book of Revelation, you also put a full stop. So why don't you come forward a step further, and look into this last and final revelation of God, which we say is contained in the Holy Quran.

00:08:31--> 00:08:32

Now religiously,

00:08:33--> 00:08:36

there is great affinity between these three religions.

00:08:37--> 00:08:51

They are we say the same religion, but on different levels. In the fundamentals of Eastern religions, there is not an iota of difference, as taught by the prophets, as taught by Moses, Jesus. And

00:08:54--> 00:08:58

if we take the first among the Jews, the first commandment

00:09:00--> 00:09:00

in Hebrew,

00:09:01--> 00:09:05

this is what it sounds like. The Shabbat dinner,

00:09:07--> 00:09:12

which means literally Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.

00:09:13--> 00:09:21

This is the first commandment given by God through Moses, as recorded in the Old Testament.

00:09:22--> 00:09:26

When we come to Jesus, we are told in the Gospel of St.

00:09:27--> 00:09:38

let alone a man of the Jews, described as a sky alert man, he comes to Jesus. Any questions? The master in the Hebrew language is the rabbi

00:09:40--> 00:09:45

and a priest, Master, what commandment is the first of all?

00:09:46--> 00:09:53

And Jesus answered and says, I believe I'm quoting in the Hebrew language, Shema Israel, I deny it.

00:09:56--> 00:09:59

Means, again, here is the law.

00:10:00--> 00:10:08

God, the Lord is one, he repeated word for word, what was given by Moses 1300 years before without the change?

00:10:12--> 00:10:15

Can we come home at 600 years after Jesus?

00:10:16--> 00:10:34

He is confronted by a delegation of Christians vegetation came from an area permanent ran outside Medina. And these Christians were questioning him with regard to theology and the teachings of Muhammad and the revelation that he had received. And during the course of the discussion,

00:10:35--> 00:10:38

the spokesman for the Christian pose the question,

00:10:40--> 00:10:41

what is your concept of God.

00:10:42--> 00:10:45

And Muhammad was meant to say, as we believe

00:10:46--> 00:10:53

that Muhammad was inspired by God, he was made to add a word as they put into his mouth.

00:10:55--> 00:11:05

So he was going to say, as it is contained in the covenant growth chapter, the Holy Quran, who Allah had said, He is God, the one and only

00:11:06--> 00:11:07

the last word.

00:11:08--> 00:11:24

That means when only Jesus said, yes, that means one of only Moses said, yes, that will be one and only, what is the difference between these three actually is the same word, meaning the same thing. The Hebrew language is that it had Arabic, Arabic.

00:11:26--> 00:11:36

And if I write that, on the board, you know, it's an amazing thing, if I write, I want to make a chart, I just put a dot that makes your heart into the

00:11:41--> 00:11:51

meaning of it, which means in the fundamentals of the teachings of Moses, Jesus, we say, no change at all, as given by the box.

00:11:53--> 00:12:01

Then in the teachings, also we find a relationship, that each is an evolution of the teacher previous teaching, for example.

00:12:02--> 00:12:14

You see the children is right. They came out of the Egyptian bondage. And they were moving to the pilot Sinai Peninsula for 40 years, and wondering people moving from poises devices.

00:12:16--> 00:12:19

And under those circumstances, the Jews and given a low

00:12:20--> 00:12:21

a very beautiful law,

00:12:24--> 00:12:35

which was an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, quick justice. If you injured my eye into yours, move on. There's work to be done. You broke my tooth.

00:12:37--> 00:12:44

This just seems to be that no one there's work to be done. There's no time for language indications. There is no time for putting a man in concentration camp a good

00:12:45--> 00:12:46

eye for an eye.

00:12:47--> 00:12:57

Low. Hey, Jesus, Mohammed couldn't have done anything better in the wilderness for these people. Suppose instead of roses, it was Jesus. What would you have given?

00:12:58--> 00:13:04

I said the same. People have told him to turn the other cheek. Say because it was an awful day in the desert.

00:13:06--> 00:13:18

He's we don't know how much instead of Moses, what would you say, as a word for What to say? Because coming from the same boat, we believe that God Almighty was inspiring Moses to give solution to the problems of his people.

00:13:19--> 00:13:26

The names of the personality doesn't matter. Whatever the name, the teaching would have been the same, according to the needs of the people

00:13:27--> 00:13:28

about

00:13:29--> 00:13:37

the law, if the adult for adults must be stoned to death. If it was Jesus, he would have done the same thing. He will have Mohammadi.

00:13:42--> 00:13:51

Now this, though, is in very harsh and cruel as this was the most merciful way of getting rid of anti social character.

00:13:54--> 00:14:15

Because the system is given by God Almighty to the Jews, was a system in which they could have had limited number of wives, and a limited number of lives. You know, Solomon had 1000 wives and concubines and God didn't say one word, okay to that. Almost every prophet mentioned in the Old Testament have more than one way.

00:14:16--> 00:14:39

They say good metaphysics, and at the same time, Abraham had already got the three lines. And so almost every prophet you name he had more than one way. And God didn't say one word against that system, a system which allow unlimited number of wives. Why must you go and interfere with somebody else's poverty?

00:14:42--> 00:14:43

Can you see that?

00:14:44--> 00:14:45

I mean, if one was not enough,

00:14:46--> 00:14:49

number two is to is not enough at all.

00:14:52--> 00:14:59

Why do you have to go and destroy somebody else's property? That person is an anti social character and the best thing to do with me

00:15:02--> 00:15:04

Every one of them bothers

00:15:07--> 00:15:12

stoning a person. You can imagine it's a new

00:15:13--> 00:15:16

day. And this has to be done in public.

00:15:17--> 00:15:27

Not hidden somewhere down the wall, say in Korea, what they call it liberal. Nobody knows what's going on. No, bring the guy to the marketplace, the whole community gathered.

00:15:29--> 00:15:32

And this is this is just to be meted out to them.

00:15:35--> 00:15:36

This is not for me.

00:15:37--> 00:15:38

Would you like to go through that?

00:15:40--> 00:15:46

So can you see now as Jesus or Muhammad couldn't have done anything better in the wilderness

00:15:49--> 00:15:50

for a nomadic people,

00:15:52--> 00:15:57

but laws have a tendency to change the characters and people who repeatedly apply anymore.

00:15:58--> 00:16:01

Let's stick around. We are living in a color conscious country.

00:16:03--> 00:16:09

Everything is based on color. And I can tell you my experience for 40 years I've been talking to people I love to talk.

00:16:10--> 00:16:16

I love to share with people my thoughts, and what little God has given me of my food.

00:16:18--> 00:16:30

And it will tell you that I had invited hundreds of whites to my home. I invited Africans and parents and Indians, but I'm talking specifically about the whites. The whites

00:16:31--> 00:16:41

learn admin privileges, hundreds of them, and they kind of enjoy the hospitality in German food, you know, food is good.

00:16:43--> 00:16:47

As you see white men he laughs it up.

00:16:51--> 00:16:56

And the color of the African robot, nobody can resist the food that we have. And

00:16:59--> 00:17:06

everybody talks about food you know, maybe the spices and the cooking or the aroma comes from our pots you know.

00:17:08--> 00:17:12

So the white men and women they enjoy food and they enjoy

00:17:13--> 00:17:17

because whatever I'm talking is from an angle which they have not seen before

00:17:18--> 00:17:21

because it's something novel so they enjoy

00:17:23--> 00:17:36

the food and they thanked me profusely when they bought and subsequently when I meet them in the streets oh they shake hands with me how it used to be that how the family Mrs.

00:17:37--> 00:17:43

White man by a white man in 40 years and invited me to his home buy a cup of tea

00:17:46--> 00:17:50

I'm asking my people that are important

00:17:51--> 00:17:52

points like is anybody

00:17:54--> 00:18:00

don't you people know how to reciprocate in your culture Indian civilization is a no such thing as reciprocation.

00:18:03--> 00:18:04

You if

00:18:06--> 00:18:07

you invite

00:18:10--> 00:18:14

to invite me or something else you can go You

00:18:16--> 00:18:29

won't even be able to walk in but at the back of the mind the laws of the country color color color is not into you psyche that thought that this

00:18:30--> 00:18:38

was coming to an elite in a global north on Sunday morning looking for your phone number 10 Downing Street

00:18:39--> 00:18:41

and you will be disqualified

00:18:42--> 00:18:42

and is

00:18:44--> 00:18:49

looking for that membership. And eventually he finds it people walk in the garden there are people sitting on the barrel

00:18:52--> 00:19:00

and then maybe you know I find the house and knock at the door Mr. Smith opens the door and question has Indian hospitality she's

00:19:02--> 00:19:03

telling me that

00:19:04--> 00:19:12

she needs to inside and chatting again. And religion is a deep subject you know you might carry on for hours and that being divides

00:19:14--> 00:19:14

idea.

00:19:21--> 00:19:24

Another relation of the family comes in

00:19:25--> 00:19:27

he finds his black man a grown man.

00:19:29--> 00:19:50

So Marcos will have to go out of his way to explain that person say this, you know, this is Mr. D that you know when we went to his house, his family that is it. So when they gave us a nice food and word and whatnot Oh, you will have your way extra name to justify my presence there. You're right. Just

00:19:52--> 00:19:57

so that this thing is covering many gaps in the middle

00:20:00--> 00:20:27

have a tendency to change and characters of people over a period of time. In Germany, invasions of civil rights have captured the notion of quality. And before one of the most tragic nations in Europe, the goods to come to incinerating 6 million Jews with a factor of fiction, the fact is even 66 million Jews, and this budget nation, Christian nation and other people, 90 million Jews,

00:20:31--> 00:20:43

they announced this massacre to take place. Why? For brainwashing, you know, the Jew, the Jew, cause killer killer, you know, they deserve it. So the whole nation is

00:20:45--> 00:20:49

an easy place as well, you know, they deserved it, they're getting it what's coming to, you know,

00:20:51--> 00:20:59

90 million Germans, they were quite happy record lows have a tendency to change the characters of people over a period

00:21:00--> 00:21:11

10,000 years and 300 between Moses, Jesus, the Jews, these very low, which were meant to know the character and

00:21:12--> 00:21:19

create a happy community. those laws perverted the standards. They were told and I

00:21:21--> 00:21:28

thought, so. If I was changing the words in the old fashioned slave, you know, the one that David used to kill Goliath

00:21:29--> 00:21:31

How do we change it is the book by accident,

00:21:32--> 00:21:39

injured, injured, I am excited. So he goes to the judge, this is you see this guy here.

00:21:41--> 00:21:41

See them I

00:21:43--> 00:21:44

I forgot

00:21:45--> 00:21:46

me hit.

00:21:47--> 00:21:58

So I suppose I was that unfortunate. You have the time, I would plead this look, man, brother, I didn't mean to damage your eye. It was an accident for him.

00:22:00--> 00:22:01

This is not to say that I but I

00:22:04--> 00:22:06

am prepared to compensate you I'll give me a tip from

00:22:08--> 00:22:11

Forgive me. He says law, the law says that.

00:22:15--> 00:22:20

He said, He is waiting for the letter of the law. And he's forgetting the spirit.

00:22:21--> 00:22:25

So Jesus Christ, the spiritual division among us.

00:22:26--> 00:22:29

He comes on the scene and he sees this perversion, the sickness,

00:22:31--> 00:22:43

that they have one for the letter of the law that governs the spirit. So one thing to bring them back to the watermedia. The parents, he gives another extreme

00:22:44--> 00:22:45

error the envelope

00:22:48--> 00:22:48

has been sent by them.

00:22:53--> 00:22:53

But I say

00:22:55--> 00:22:58

this is not evil. He who strikes you that he

00:23:00--> 00:23:06

is a person thinks of you who agree with an adversary, while they walk with him on the way

00:23:08--> 00:23:19

the person makes you do a one on one with him to In other words, go to the other extreme. This is an antidote for a sickness, which is a beautiful antidote for a signal.

00:23:21--> 00:23:26

But we used to say this, that that antidote will not work.

00:23:27--> 00:23:33

Because we have a sickness, your sickness has changed. And as the sickness changes, the remedy must change.

00:23:34--> 00:23:41

And in that change, we must explain that Mohammed Brahma last and final revelation of God Almighty.

00:23:45--> 00:23:54

He has given the law and we say is the fulfillment of the laws as given by Moses and Jesus, and Jesus Christ, He will serve the photo.

00:23:57--> 00:24:04

In the Gospel of St. JOHN, he says, I have yet many things to say unto you to the minute,

00:24:05--> 00:24:06

but he cannot

00:24:08--> 00:24:15

get the capacity to grasp this knowledge. God has given it to him, he could have guided mankind for eternity.

00:24:16--> 00:24:28

But the people who were the recipient of that message, they have not fit to receive it, as he said, but he you cannot pay them. And the truth of the statement is writ large.

00:24:29--> 00:24:33

In the Bible, usually they are giving the New Testament in the Gospels.

00:24:35--> 00:24:36

Jesus telling his disciples

00:24:40--> 00:24:41

how many times

00:24:42--> 00:24:59

he experienced as he was explaining to little children, and they can't grasp the message. So he says, I even get without understanding. Aaron's bro further, this is a faithless and perverse generation. Decide how long you can do it you

00:25:00--> 00:25:05

Is it Jesus with the Japanese? Do you hear that when we did it?

00:25:08--> 00:25:10

They gave me a phone

00:25:17--> 00:25:30

they gave me everything is telling them they misunderstand when is true. So he says, I have many things to say unto you, but he cannot be the heartbeat.

00:25:31--> 00:25:46

When he The Spirit of Truth is gone, he will be taught, for he shall not speak for himself, but what things we shall hear, that shall speak, and he shall declare unto you the thing that will come, he shall glorified me.

00:25:47--> 00:25:50

Now we use this, we say that that Spirit of

00:25:54--> 00:25:54

Jesus

00:25:56--> 00:26:02

to an extent that the Christian is he listens to what the Quran says about Jesus.

00:26:03--> 00:26:12

He falls on his back, he can relate with you. He thinks that the Muslim is hypocritical, because when the minister said that we Muslims, we believe in Jesus.

00:26:14--> 00:26:32

So we believe that Jesus was one of the mightiest messengers of God, we believe that he was the Messiah, we believe that you have one inaccuracy without any human intervention, we believe that he lied to the dead by God's permission. And if you could walk around in the lepers by birtherism, the white person feels that we are trying to scratch his back. So he means catch our

00:26:35--> 00:26:38

good words about your Jesus, maybe you might say,

00:26:42--> 00:26:47

maybe in the South African situation, you know, we might have a tendency to do that.

00:26:49--> 00:26:51

And we boosted in South Africa,

00:26:52--> 00:26:59

we are a minority of a minority, the Indian is an oddity. And in the minority, we are one.

00:27:00--> 00:27:02

We are a minority of a minority,

00:27:03--> 00:27:04

in numbers in everything.

00:27:05--> 00:27:12

So as such that is reflected the whites, the Christians, to get some crumbs somewhere along the line, we could just do

00:27:13--> 00:27:14

what I said.

00:27:15--> 00:27:17

There is no one

00:27:19--> 00:27:26

in it. Issue, this particular one had an index. And if you open the index, and open the subject thesis,

00:27:27--> 00:27:38

you see me the word named Jesus will occur in this holy book apart within the text, no less than 25 times the name in this whole body only five times

00:27:40--> 00:27:47

mahama supposed to be the author of this book, his name occurs in the old book, five times the name Jesus benefactors.

00:27:49--> 00:28:15

There is a chapter in his book called surah. Maryam means chapter May, in honor the name of the mother of Jesus. There is no chapter in this book, the main aim of Muhammad's mother, or his wife or his daughter. But there is a chapter about me, Maria chapter 19. So it's quite an easy thing, you know, a simple physics speaker. So it's more about Jesus on his nose when there's not this guy.

00:28:17--> 00:28:27

With a beard of Jesus, we open the index. And we begin this one here, Jesus, the righteous mind, chapter six, verse 85.

00:28:28--> 00:28:40

His verse is described in two places, chapter three, verses 45 to 47. In chapter 19, verses 23, one that is open, and let you hear

00:28:41--> 00:28:48

the damage to the quality Association in America, a group of Roman Catholics professionals call the association

00:28:49--> 00:28:55

and I also happen to be in sedap desidera Theological Seminary.

00:28:57--> 00:29:03

And there are I've also opened the book of God. And I read it to the students there.

00:29:05--> 00:29:07

And they just can't seem to be

00:29:08--> 00:29:15

able to see it for yourself. It says to them starting in Arabic, sounds like so what is

00:29:19--> 00:29:22

the engine say for many in Milan?

00:29:24--> 00:29:25

It was the

00:29:27--> 00:29:34

mean that God has chosen the interior it chosen the above the women of foreign nations and reading the Quran

00:29:36--> 00:29:36

about

00:29:38--> 00:29:44

Mary the mother of Jesus, the Quran is chosen above the minimum qualifications, Your mother

00:29:45--> 00:29:46

must do the work.

00:29:49--> 00:29:56

Thought about prostrate dissection bowed out in prayer with those of Allah. Whether it was 45

00:29:58--> 00:29:59

maraca cuyamaca

00:30:00--> 00:30:04

Because the English or maybe in Lola because she wrote a

00:30:06--> 00:30:15

book, say, Allah gives you play tidings of a word from him. His mercy, his name will be the Messiah.

00:30:18--> 00:30:19

Arabic is mercy, Hebrew.

00:30:21--> 00:30:22

Merci,

00:30:24--> 00:30:31

merci de la cara Henning on a in this world and your job while you've been at the company,

00:30:33--> 00:30:45

when you can do masa, and He will speak to the people who will not be in childhood immaturity, when Assad is mean, and he shall be at the company at the righteous, when this good news is given to me.

00:30:47--> 00:30:50

Naturally, she protests, saying

00:30:52--> 00:30:53

whatever.

00:30:54--> 00:30:59

She said, Oh my god, how should I respond when a man has tissue in

00:31:02--> 00:31:05

the liver. So a lot before the words are used.

00:31:06--> 00:31:08

Whenever it is a matter

00:31:10--> 00:31:10

of

00:31:13--> 00:31:15

key energy. This is

00:31:17--> 00:31:24

Jesus that forgot to create anything he was without a father, he has got to go and come today.

00:31:26--> 00:31:40

It is not necessary for God to take a seat implanted by artificial insemination or any other method. He was it a Jesus father, that Jesus is without a father just like that, but who really

00:31:43--> 00:31:44

is

00:31:45--> 00:31:45

not.

00:31:47--> 00:31:48

The

00:31:50--> 00:31:55

the respect with which we take the holy name of Jesus in Islam. No

00:31:56--> 00:32:03

man can ever come before the Christian congregation and speak about Jesus as Isa is that means Jesus.

00:32:05--> 00:32:15

We can never say Isa, a must say hazard precise alarm reader, Jesus made this we are going to him. If he does an ISA, Jesus will be kicked out.

00:32:18--> 00:32:25

You take the name of a mighty messenger of God. And you call him just like that. He said that like calling Buddha. He was telling me yesterday that.

00:32:28--> 00:32:30

So this is how we did it.

00:32:32--> 00:32:36

Now I say that that prophecy that I just want to do

00:32:39--> 00:32:48

this for an hour or two hours. But that is not my purpose. I like to give you an opportunity to ask him a question. But I am by reading that

00:32:50--> 00:33:00

verse with a little emphasis on number one, which will give you an idea that this person that Jesus was possibly prophesied about was not a ghost was not a speed was known as

00:33:02--> 00:33:03

the woods again,

00:33:05--> 00:33:18

this is I have yet many things to say to you, but he cannot be happy when he the spirit of truth has come, he will get involved, but he shall not speak for himself.

00:33:19--> 00:33:28

If I said here, that shall he speaks and he shall declare unto you that he shall glorify me a masculine pronoun.

00:33:30--> 00:33:31

I'm asking

00:33:32--> 00:33:36

Can you find another person this whole encyclopedia for the Bible

00:33:37--> 00:33:44

with eight masculine pronouns? One of those masculine pronouns, pronouns or neuter gender?

00:33:47--> 00:33:57

I am sure that isn't, in other words, Jesus emphasizing that the person is going to come to guide neck and into all pro man, a man

00:33:58--> 00:33:58

man.

00:34:00--> 00:34:04

This is our beef. But I'm open to questions.

00:34:06--> 00:34:06

Mr. Chairman,

00:34:08--> 00:34:09

you know, I'm

00:34:12--> 00:34:13

standing here

00:34:19--> 00:34:23

open for questions, any comments or observations which anybody?

00:34:26--> 00:34:26

Senior

00:34:31--> 00:34:42

is Muslim and Muslim the same thing. I said when you see the Westerner, the real pronunciation is pretty slim. But sometimes when you spend a review the English word that is a Muslim.

00:34:44--> 00:34:50

So some people go out of the way to take the precaution that you don't meet Muslim. So this was a Muslim.

00:34:55--> 00:34:55

Yeah.

00:34:56--> 00:35:00

You you acknowledge Jesus Christ as a prophet.

00:35:01--> 00:35:27

Not everyone, is you regarding them as a son of Christ, oh God. You see, I would say yes. And I would say no. See, yes, metaphorically in, in the sense in which God speaks about the righteous, his righteous servants in the Holy Bible, who he describes as the sons of God. Because, according to that God has got funds by the talents

00:35:28--> 00:35:34

in the Bible, in your eyes, he's got the mother tongue. But when you ask him or many Christians,

00:35:35--> 00:35:37

how many sons of God God is the one

00:35:38--> 00:35:39

the only says

00:35:45--> 00:36:19

in the book of Genesis chapter six, verse three, it says, And the sons of God for the daughters of men that they failed, and they took them to wipe all that they chose, and the sons of God in African seals are hot. And when the sons of God came into the role of men, and cultural to them, they became great men of old men of renown. In the book of Exodus, God says, Israel is my son, even myself, in the book of Jeremiah, key for me is my son, even my firstborn. In the book of Psalms, God speaks to David. And he says, I will declare and decree and will be the power of my son, this they have

00:36:20--> 00:36:37

a religious tone, as many as are led by the Spirit of God, and the sons of God. In other words, anybody everybody can do if you follow the rules, and then of God, you are a godly person, in the language of the Jew, you are a son of God. It's a metaphorical statement.

00:36:39--> 00:36:44

Everybody who follows like Jesus was a Jew, is your father, the devil.

00:36:45--> 00:37:02

Now you don't have to shop your phones for killing books, but with a less hands on his own disciples. Know what it is that you are your father and the devil, meaning that if you do not happen to the Word of God, and give you your harmony with the suggestions of the devil,

00:37:03--> 00:37:04

in the language of the Judah,

00:37:06--> 00:37:09

if you are a botany person, in the language of material

00:37:10--> 00:37:25

isn't in that sense, I think Jesus was pre eminent in the Son of God, because he was faithful to God than any of us can ever be. That point of view, we see Jesus is the Son of God. But we lose things we take exception to that.

00:37:26--> 00:37:33

When he says that Jesus is the only begotten Son, because they're not made. This is what he says.

00:37:36--> 00:37:55

Because not me. So I'm asking the English man, because I seem to know English better than any other language. So as much more diverse, English speaking people than with anybody else. Excuse me, sir. When you say, Be cotton, not me. What are you trying to emphasize?

00:37:56--> 00:38:01

Will you please explain? When you say the Gordian knot may What are you really trying to tell me?

00:38:02--> 00:38:10

And believe me, no English man, yet, in my 40 years of experience, has opened his mouth to tell you what it means.

00:38:12--> 00:38:20

Maybe you might be brave and American. Yes. I'm an American. Who speaks English, you say inspired by God. So?

00:38:29--> 00:38:34

I'm only telling you when you say because they're not made inside? Oh, my God.

00:38:36--> 00:38:41

What do you mean? Isn't it doesn't mean that such a, if it doesn't mean that why do you say,

00:38:42--> 00:38:45

God you see you creating unnecessary conflict between me and you?

00:38:47--> 00:38:56

is you don't leave it. Why is it? Because that is the thing that's dividing 1000 200 million impressions of the world without a million Muslims and divided

00:38:57--> 00:39:16

the way the same thing will be so you are sincere, you mean real. But when you're talking these terms, you don't know the implications in your own language. I don't know what the implications of what you're saying. So we Muslims are getting qualified. When you talk about people often not made, so that they get clarity.

00:39:17--> 00:39:22

So that fighting over words, why did you say that? I don't mean that.

00:39:23--> 00:39:30

But the English man, you know, he, speaking about his wife is speaking to Mother, mother.

00:39:31--> 00:39:33

Instead telling a story about the

00:39:35--> 00:39:37

Englishman if you Didn't your mother

00:39:42--> 00:39:43

younger than you said, Yes.

00:39:45--> 00:39:47

She your stepmother? This is no

00:39:49--> 00:39:49

this is a very

00:39:51--> 00:39:51

Hi,

00:39:52--> 00:39:55

my children. And I love to talk so

00:39:57--> 00:39:59

why don't we tell you why

00:40:00--> 00:40:00

But

00:40:05--> 00:40:10

I can carry that further didn't have the guts, if I hope you

00:40:12--> 00:40:22

visit Mary at the time or the conception, and they whose child wanted Mary Carrie there is a son of God.

00:40:24--> 00:40:37

At the end of the night, when you put in the question, it means you still stand by the curtain not me. You see it was made by Bob, will you believe it? Everything he created, a vasectomy will

00:40:39--> 00:40:45

be edited. So you guys want to see Jesus? Because not had no.

00:40:49--> 00:40:51

I said the first thing he created every dog

00:40:53--> 00:40:54

whose father was,

00:40:55--> 00:40:56

who

00:40:58--> 00:41:05

are the population and the vet who? God, God. In other words, he is our Lord and cherish our

00:41:06--> 00:41:11

Creator, and marisha smbc He is the father of everything.

00:41:12--> 00:41:16

In the case of Jesus, as the grant says, For God to create

00:41:18--> 00:41:18

by him.

00:41:21--> 00:41:51

Whenever he sees a matter, God Almighty, He realizes the key energy, in other words, he will. And Jesus came to be, as the word of the Union was coming to me today, as the one that I'm coming to be, of course, we do not take literally, you know what you think that God Almighty took a lump of clay, and he molded the shape of a man. And you know, he breathed into it. And if you can imagine that it took another level of play, there may be an element, and then we move

00:41:52--> 00:41:54

into the middle number today. And you know,

00:41:56--> 00:42:03

Madonna lives as an icon doesn't work like that. There is a concept I have a quote from it, the Quran says, but you somehow are

00:42:05--> 00:42:06

the origin of the heavens and the earth.

00:42:08--> 00:42:20

But even Amaya kulambu for releasing words, whenever he doesn't matter, he was in the country. And the Bible also confirmed in the book of origin, it is said

00:42:22--> 00:42:48

that the heavens and the earth recreated paddle board and other things visible game through the false invisible, which means the invisible we have brought everything to be as such, God is the Creator, Father sustainer, everything of everybody. But physically, we say God does not negate. So this was by Mira God, that doesn't make Jesus any more important, as some of

00:42:49--> 00:42:50

you will know.

00:42:51--> 00:43:02

If Jesus because there's no father, if that makes him the Son of God, then Adam has a greater right to be the Son of God. Then geometry the last verse, it says, an Adam, the Son of God.

00:43:04--> 00:43:08

So I said, you see it's metaphorical statement, God created the Magneto will.

00:43:10--> 00:43:12

Glory be to God, for

00:43:13--> 00:43:27

as the scripture says, When Jesus performed this ridiculous, impossible thing, decent Glory be to God, for giving such powers and to me, Glory goes to God, again and again. So people are creating Jesus without him.

00:43:28--> 00:43:41

So in that in literally the God becomes his father, he is as much Jesus father is Allah and Jesus Christ, you remember, in the very easy for us. He said, I will teach you how to pray, pray like this,

00:43:44--> 00:43:49

which are in heaven. Judas was Judas within the group, he is the father of evil, Judas, who

00:43:51--> 00:43:51

will

00:43:52--> 00:43:55

be dying, die, kingdom come, thy will be done.

00:43:58--> 00:43:59

So we say God.

00:44:01--> 00:44:07

This Luckily, he doesn't get NSF, we are taking exception to the terminology that you're using.

00:44:09--> 00:44:12

Is pre eminent with the Son of God, metaphorically, but physically.

00:44:15--> 00:44:16

This is the Muslim stance.

00:44:18--> 00:44:23

And therefore, when you die on the cross, do you accept God to save us from our sins? No.

00:44:27--> 00:44:29

You know, I'm reading this book, the Bible.

00:44:31--> 00:44:34

I think it used to be Yes, you are.

00:44:35--> 00:44:36

Still, you see,

00:44:38--> 00:44:43

you know, I'm telling the English speaking person as in you know, you read this book the Bible in your own mother tongue.

00:44:44--> 00:44:59

Because the Bible is not available in 1500 different languages in this tiny tower and village in Zulu, Africa, what language you want 1500 different languages, Arabic which are up in Milan, to tell you why and why can you

00:45:00--> 00:45:18

Daddy, for the house 11 given an Arabic Bible, no longer an excuse anymore, for say you don't have access to the Word of God direct, personal, you have a direct English. And yet, I'm finding that the English man, when he's reading a book, I'm telling him as you know, you're Superman

00:45:20--> 00:45:29

do the politics. So you assume that you are reading a book in your own mother tongue, and you are made to understand the exact opposite of a theory

00:45:30--> 00:45:37

is misunderstanding. For example, if you are not commit adultery, you are understanding thou shalt communicate.

00:45:38--> 00:45:39

Can you say that you can do

00:45:41--> 00:45:42

something special?

00:45:43--> 00:45:46

That you read something and you understanding the opposite of what you're reading?

00:45:47--> 00:45:57

So what are you referring to as the universe? When Jesus returned to the upper room? We were the last of our endeavors crucifixion, he goes in.

00:45:58--> 00:46:00

And he wishes his disciples. Basically.

00:46:02--> 00:46:06

He's being given his disciples recognize that this is Jesus.

00:46:08--> 00:46:10

I'm asking why would the chariot

00:46:11--> 00:46:16

So Luke tell us that they were attracted because they thought he was desperate?

00:46:18--> 00:46:18

He thought,

00:46:19--> 00:46:24

because he thought he was. So why should they think the man is a spirit digital Tiger spirit.

00:46:31--> 00:46:43

Confused? So I said, Look, I'll help you. You see, the disciples of Jesus, they had heard from hearing that the master would hang on because they had heard from hearsay, that he had given up the ghost. In other words, he had died.

00:46:44--> 00:46:52

They were busy, but now he didn't get it for three days. And then we set the reputation when you see those because they expect you to be

00:46:54--> 00:47:00

so excited, because they thought he was a spirit. So Jesus says,

00:47:02--> 00:47:04

Behold my hands and my feet

00:47:05--> 00:47:10

have my hands and my feet that is my child. And the same for a man

00:47:12--> 00:47:15

What are you afraid of people say See,

00:47:16--> 00:47:23

this is basic English, but it's a Queen's English. You don't need a dictionary and you don't need a theologian book in your life.

00:47:25--> 00:47:30

Send handily and see for a spirit has moved him

00:47:31--> 00:47:32

as you see me and

00:47:33--> 00:47:49

there is no visible. So if I were fishing bones in that case, and tell him English man, I'm not a spirit and notice book I'm not a ghost. Am I right? Is that what it means in your language? So everybody says yes. If I said I'm officially involved in that day, I'm not a street I'm not.

00:47:51--> 00:48:00

A Muslim Africana is 100%. That the fiber flesh and bones are not the

00:48:01--> 00:48:23

same. In other words, Jesus is telling you that the body that you have seen, it is not a translated body. It is not a metamorphose body. It is not a body because the resurrected bodies have specialized. So the letter geyser who says that Jesus is aware of Luke chapter, really with the things you put in clinical dentistry, go back further.

00:48:25--> 00:48:27

What does this even mean? It is what it says.

00:48:28--> 00:48:58

He says, you see the Jews were coming to you with poses which was again and again. Now they come to him. There's a monster there was a jewess among us and then dress according to a Jewish customer, husbands in one photo die there's no hospital and the second wife and when he finished the third and the fourth and the fifth say seven guys and this one woman, but there was no problem by here on this earth because it was one by one. Now the modern woman Jesus that there is a Russian rich guy want to have her because they all had her here

00:49:00--> 00:49:03

is your head a woman has a mental image you see on another side.

00:49:05--> 00:49:07

My wife everybody was okay, guys.

00:49:11--> 00:49:14

created an institution which has affected people throughout the world.

00:54:41--> 00:54:51

Post September 11 has created a great deal of animosity towards Muslims. mosques in America and throughout the world were targeted and even damaged.

00:54:52--> 00:54:59

The focus on the world today is Islam and Muslims. And we have the best opportunity to turn this focus and present Islam

00:55:00--> 00:55:13

sheer comedy there has successfully halted the worldwide Christian missionary onslaught against Islam and inspired the Muslim world with these unique contributions, which is a legacy that we have all inherited.

00:55:14--> 00:55:42

Men being irrational entity is dependent upon any need of reason for a proper expression of its personality. A person's ethics behavior, relationship with other individuals will be based on how he or she perceives the reason for one's existence.

Since the aims and incapacity of Shama deeded a new set of trustees have taken over the running of the IPC AI. The primary objective is to continue and expand the work of Sheikh Ahmed deedat and to train people in his method of Dawa. Our training program is focused on creating the future D debts. The Holy Quran, Chapter 21, verse 16, and chapter 44, verse 38, says, We have not created the heavens and the earth, and all that is in between them for idol play.

00:56:15--> 00:56:51

The mosque is the house of God Almighty. We hold every aspect of ourselves in trust, we do not own it. We are accountable to the creator for its upkeep and development to its maximum potential. We have to develop the society. Our life is not foreplay. It is a job and we are required to do it well. We have been given detailed instructions to guide us in performance of this task. The Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam showed us the way the service should be performed. If we fail to realize our duty, we are failing the purpose for which we were created.

00:56:52--> 00:57:08

Allah subhanho wa Taala even states in the Holy Quran Chapter 51, verse 56, we have not created the jinn and the human beings except for service. Unfortunately, we have lost the widest significance of service and have become more richly inclined.

00:57:10--> 00:57:31

The universe is governed by laws. The Creator called these laws, His signs and advises us to observe them, understand them and use them to our advantage. Our minds are limited and will change if we can successfully perform the tasks for which we were created. We are part of the scheme and we have to do the work to become the successful people.

00:57:33--> 00:57:42

Saudis ambassador to South Africa, Dr. South Sudan at the IPC I function said, Our work is not done once we have delivered our message.

00:57:43--> 00:58:25

He has seen cases in the townships where a group of people have studied and embraced Islam, and the missionaries came in with their aid programs only to undo whatever work we have done. The ambassador expressed his joy and said he will make himself available at all times to the apci, whose founder he holds in high esteem. Chef Ahmed deedat, has established a visit to the mosque as one of its core functions for visitors to witness what transpires in the house of God Almighty shirahama deedat and the late Mr. Vanka personally conducted tours for over the 25 year period. students from schools, training colleges, church groups, civic institutions, fire departments, police force and other

public way invited via press adverts.

00:58:29--> 00:58:57

We need your help financially or otherwise to be stronger now than we were before. We cannot afford to lose people into religions other than what God Almighty has chosen for mankind. Help us to help others as share Ahmed deedat said, if we had the means we would flood the world. Help us financially to distribute these audios, videos, DVDs, and literature to all corners of the globe even to those who cannot afford it.

00:58:59--> 00:59:03

de la serda colonialism. This is a Muslim House of Prayer, and it is called a mosque,

01:01:00--> 01:01:51

a Hindu House of Prayer, a temple, a Jewish House of Prayer, a synagogue, a Christian House of Prayer, a church. This is a Muslim House of Prayer, and it is called a mosque. And allow me to welcome you all, with the traditional Islamic salutation of wishing you all as salam, o Alaikum, which means peace be unto you all. You see when we Muslims, when we meet one another, we wish one another as salam aleikum, which means peace be unto you, and the hero replies, waalaikumsalam and on you also be peace. So with that salutation, I welcome you all I say Assalamu alaikum peace be unto your Jesus uttered these words in the book of john chapter 20, verses 1921 and 26. If we analyze the

01:01:51--> 01:02:04

words, good morning, or good afternoon, what does it mean? It means that we should enjoy ourselves for a particular period of time. Whereas when the prophets greeted one another, they said peace, which was for eternity.

01:02:06--> 01:02:47

The very first thing that you were asked to do when you entered this house of prayer was to take off your shoe. In the book of Acts, chapter seven, verse 33, and Exodus chapter three, verse five, God Almighty commanded Moses, put off by shoe from off Thai feet for the ground we upon those standards is holy ground. In the Holy Quran Chapter 20 verses 11 and 12. It is stated for lamotta han udia Musa Indiana rabuka La Liga in acaba, de mercado de Soto. When Moses came to the fire, a voice was heard all Moses verily I am thy God, therefore, in my presence, put off the shoes from off Thai feet, for thou art in the valley of war

01:03:07--> 01:03:19

So in respect of that commandment, we Muslims, we take off our shoes, because to as Moses is as much our Prophet, as Jesus and Muhammad are, we accept them all,

01:03:20--> 01:03:46

as the mighty messengers of God. Now, before we go in for prayer, we make ablution. In other words, all the exposed parts of the body are being washed the hands, the feet, the nostrils, the nape of the neck, gargling the mouth, brushing the teeth. Now this the Muslim does five times a day, every day of the year, the one who's particular with this press
