			more than 100,000 people watching this show, I'm almost positive about that, if not more, I know in
Nigeria alone, and, you know, certain African countries, there's more than that.

teaching people about, you know, that proper believes that was fertile and so on that I mean, if you
look through our previous shows, you'll find that there's just a lot of beneficial a lot of,
		
00:01:45 --> 00:02:23
			you know, things that regard youth and the whole minor at large and especially specific things very
to the 21st century's current issues and saw, so please, we need your support, again, visit a time

just deposit you know, whatever summit is whatever you think it's it's generous Charla, you can
choose to do that. And this will help the show continue, shall if that does not happen. So I've had
a lot, and we're trying to reach out to different ways to come to LA to different people. But if
that doesn't happen, then sadly to say but the show come to a halt. And
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:33
			that reminds me about a beautiful Hadith. You know, when you contribute for something, you know,
where people are going to get larger inshallah
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:44
			you have a numerous numerous reward, I mean, this is the time to please Allah, this is the way to
please Allah subhanaw taala, Allah always mentioned, like, you know,
		
00:02:46 --> 00:03:14
			that you invest your own self and your own wealth. So I think this is a beautiful opportunity for
all the viewers in Sharla, to, you know, help and support this process for any actor that you know,
you know, will get from the show and show that they will share in that that's, that's beautiful
thing without reduction of any ones. Yes. So till now the agenda was contained. Now it's open for
everyone, for you, the viewer, so I'm not, I really don't like, you know, fundraising and, you know,
trying to
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:50
			let me put in nice words, I don't like to use, you know, the words of Allah Deena to like, Come on,
guys, give us you know, look at this hadith and look at that, sometimes, you know, I'm, I'm
apprehensive about that. But I mean, you know, sincerely and if there's a benefit, you know, and
something, no doubt that people should contribute and share it. I mean, it's a benefit for them.
Yeah, I'm there, no one's getting paid Al Hamdulillah. You know, no one's making money from this, I
think this is very clear, and very upfront, okay. So no one's gonna benefit except you and us
inshallah, by giving Tao inshallah and making this information reach out to people and hamdulillah
		
00:03:50 --> 00:04:17
			it's being broadcast that in many, many countries, that's being live streamed all over the world,
and I believe it's moving into Europe and also into America, when it is being broadcasted on to the
USA. So, you know, inshallah, this is, you know, something that you can contribute a lot. That is a
lot. Let's get back to our topic. And we were talking about getting into their scripture, we talked
about the position that Muslims take, when it comes to the, you know, what do we believe about the
Bible, right, right.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:05:00
			Right, like now, so we are very clear, we use this their scriptures, only because they believe in
it, and we use it as, as, I think, a very effective tool, because, you know, they won't deny their
own scripture. So they have to contract themselves in order to you know, deny anything which is
mentioned in there. So, this approach, you know, to identify, to verify, to investigate there
beforehand, their evidence, then we get to know Okay, this is what they believe in. This is the
actual, you know, teaching of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him in terms of the concept of God, the
fundamental thing that everyone has in common, essentially, you know, especially the Abrahamic
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:35
			fates who claim that they have revealed you know, revealed scriptures with them. The fundamental
common denominator is that we believe in Allah subhanaw taala worship Him alone. And that's what
Jesus Christ is appointed mentioned. That's what Moses Peace be upon you mentioned and we find it in
both the Old Testament as well as in the New Testament in the Old Testament, you know, Moses, peace
be upon him. He says in Deuteronomy, chapter six, verse four, Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is
one lot. And the same, you know, teachings followed by Jesus Christ peace be upon him because of
Mark chapter 12, verse 29, he says, Here, O Israel, the Lord our God is one law you should love the
		
00:05:35 --> 00:06:21
			Lord your your God, you know with all your strength with all your love it all you care, so Jesus
says, Our Lord, Amen, his Lord as well of course and as we're also very clear in the in the Quran,
when a Salah Salaam and he says, When Israel Abu Dhabi or any other Surat Mr. And Mrs. Draper.
Exactly. So why are the Christians then saying, Yeah, one Lord, one or but three and one? Why, why
this confusion, this idea of, you know, triune, God, or Jesus being God, this was started, you know,
with the teachings or the contamination, so to say, in the Bible by Paul, okay. Now, that basically
gives a big question that is, you know, always we are getting engaged with the Christians in a very
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			noble and nice way.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:07:02
			very emphatic of rhetorical question is Jesus God. So, when we, you know, again, investigating,
verify and study the Bible, the Bible says, No, for instance, in Gospel of Matthew, chapter 19,
verse 16, and 17. When one comes to him and says, Master, good Master, what good thing shall I do
that I may have eternal life? This is why you call me good for imagine, he didn't want himself to be
called as good. He said, Why are you calling me good for and this is something amazing, because
Muslims have this type of or practicing Muslim should have this type of understanding. When someone
praises you, right? You deny that praise, right? And we
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:38
			attribute all those factors. Exactly. So Jesus emphatically says, Why are you calling me good? For
there is none good, except one, and that is God. And if you have entered into this, you know life,
keep the commandments. So Jesus says, keep the commandments, of course, okay. That's the teaching of
Jesus Christ upon him. On the other hand, the teachings of Paul, it goes, you know, if you have to
believe in Christianity, you have to believe that Christ died for your sins. And that is the only
way for your for your salvation and soulmates are
		
00:07:41 --> 00:08:23
			not existing, but they're important. Exactly. I mean, it is overshadowed almost. So, when we study
the Bible, Jesus Christ is broken, he clearly outstand this, I am not gonna you know, God, of
course, when we, when we when he meant, while calling Good, good in terms of God, not obviously, we
know for sure that he was one of the mightiest messengers of the last panel, but he was definitely
was best of that time. So but when people have that kind of, you know, ideology, that notion that
you are equating someone with God, that they deny themselves to be as good as you know, as God. So
we could actually list down five essential reasons why Jesus is not God, okay, which is supported
		
00:08:23 --> 00:09:09
			with logic, regeneration, based on the scripture as well. Number one, he never claimed to be God,
right? For a person for people to you know, attribute him as, as you know, God, then they have to
have a claim that he said, So, if our Master Jesus Christ, peace, be upon him have so upset, so
please bring it to us. Now, let me let me stop you there. Some of the Christians might be standing
there, but didn't just say I am the father of one is something that I use all the time, right. Now
there are so many indirect statements which are derived in a in a way that indicates or denotes that
Jesus is God. And there are numerous ones. One of them is this where Jesus Christ peace be upon him
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:22
			the gospel of john chapter 10, verse 30, he says, I and my Father I want and then full stop. That's
it. That's it. So now, in terms of this, we basically tried to share and make them understand, look,
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:48
			just, you know, catching this para verse or the statement does not solve your problem, if you want
to really understand it. Look at the context, the context means the tax that goes before and after
the context of this. It starts from verse number 23, of you know, gospel of john chapter 10, verse
23, onwards, and it basically says, in terms of the purpose,
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:59
			God and Jesus are one one, okay. And he clearly mentioned his gospel of john, two verses before and
gospel of john chapter 10 was 28. My father is greater than all
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:49
			And then he said, My father is greater than me, and who no one can pluck them out of my father's
hand. And then he says, No one can pluck them out of my hand, which means that the purpose of God is
to save mankind, the purpose of prophets and messengers, same, it's the same as light, in the same
purpose. We all are one, if you have that notion, that ideology that care, that common, you know, or
concern, and we all are one, and correct me if I'm wrong, but going down a few verses after Jesus
talks about his disciples, and all of them being one exactly in the same word as us them by
believing him in Greek and, exactly. So if that is true, that's true, then, you know, your Trinity,
		
00:10:49 --> 00:11:29
			and then 12 disciples and 15 gods, so that that doesn't make sense. And nobody, no Christian accepts
that. So we find these, you know, implicit verses or, you know, VS code of out of context, if it is
understood with the context, then we can definitely solve the issue and mentioned very clearly that
Jesus is never, he never claimed himself to be good. So that's number one. He never claimed
directly, explicitly that I am God, or worship me, let me just interrupt again, for our viewers, if
you have a Christian friend or someone or you know, someone who will make sure you give a call to
watch this, and I'm reminding you that it is a live show, and we do accept phone calls, phone
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:41
			numbers on the screen, if you want to give us a call. You never know, you know, someone might be
listening. And this panel, I remember I met a few, actually a friend of mine, who was how he became
he became Muslim by watching a TV show.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:43
			From Buddha TV.
		
00:11:45 --> 00:12:29
			It's amazing, definitely, we don't know how Allah will, you know, guide people and missionaries. And
so that's, that's number one that we can you know, Muslims die is, they can engage and ask a simple
question. Look, we are told in the Quran to produce, you know, to ask, and you know, produce the the
behind the evidence, or the proof, proof that Jesus claimed himself to be God or worship me, they
cannot bring so that's number one. Number two, on the contrary, Jesus peace be upon him, he said,
and attribute it that qualities that are not God, see, God is greater than me, God is greater than
all. So on the contrary, he mentioned these things, which indicates definitely he is not God. Number
		
00:12:29 --> 00:13:15
			three, Jesus peace be upon him, he professed he preached, and he proclaimed himself as a prophet of
Allah as a prophet of God. We read in, you know, Book of Acts, chapter two, verse 22, even of Israel
in Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved by God, appointed by God, doing wonders and miracles in the
midst of us, as you yourself, is a witness, Jesus peace be upon him, he himself says in gospel of
john chapter 14, verse 24, the words that you your mind, but the father who has sent me now this is
the engagement and the inspiration that comes from Allah are to the prophets, not to anyone else. So
third reason he is not God, he professed himself as a prophet of God, as the Messenger of God.
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:46
			Number four, Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, he worshiped God Almighty, He worship God Almighty.
Now, if somebody says, then if he is God, and He is worshiping to God, so well, he was whispering to
himself. We can't you know, we can't buy that argument. Right? So Jesus, as mentioned in the Gospel
of Matthew, He moved a little further, and he fell on his face, and he prayed who he was praying to,
he fell on his face, though, if he exactly like Muslims, or Muslims pray, hammer. Well, I
		
00:13:47 --> 00:14:29
			was impressed if I have to say we are more Christian, in terms of following Christ than the
Christian themselves. So we grow beard like you, when you when you say Christian, you mean like
Christ like so people dress like a follower of Christ? We are true, sincere, don't misunderstand.
Exactly, exactly. So that's, so these are the understanding or the arguments or the regional, you
know, things that we can share with them, essentially, to prove that Jesus Christ peace be upon him.
He never claimed God. And the fifth one is that he always distinct himself from God, like for
example, the qualities of God are unique, you know, it resolves and it is suitable only to God. For
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:40
			example, Jesus Christ, please be part of me says, In Gospel of Matthew, chapter 13, verse 32, no one
knows the future. So you know, not neither the angel, neither the Son of God,
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:59
			except God Almighty. So the future the knowledge all knowing the attribute of Allah name. It is only
for Allah, Almighty God, it's not for him. So he didn't know what was going to happen. The knowledge
of the hour, the knowledge of, you know, resurrection, all those things in the future.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:39
			So he himself was limited in knowledge and that cannot be a quality of God. Similarly, he says in
gospel of john, chapter five, verse 30, I can have my own self do nothing. As I hear I judge and my
judgment is just because I seek not my will, but the will of my Father was sent to me, that means he
was a powerless God, if he's got was Apollo's and we can't accept that God is powerless in any way.
Something very important that you said is that he did not know the hour, when he's asked about the
hour, he doesn't know. And so patola even the process of sending money last month isn't alone. And
he said, that's good for the hour, right? And last one, they respond, you know, in different ways
		
00:15:39 --> 00:16:13
			that they you are from it science or you know, this knowledge only with Allah Subhana Allah,
exactly. Any person, you know, you have like Nostradamus, you have a lot of the philosophers and so
called prophets or port tellers, you know, that, you know, guests, you know, you have the Incas, and
so on people in this South America 2020. And you know, people getting ready 2000 and millennium,
right, people have guests over and over again, throughout our history, and they failed, and they
failed. But that's the interesting thing. If someone would have wanted people to come to Him as
their, you know, the leader of a cult or religion. Let me draw people to me, they would never say, I
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:24
			don't know, exactly say, Oh, yeah, I'll give you a let's say, let's make it 5000 years from now, I'm
going to be dead anyway, people, you know, will will come to me So, but he said, I don't know. I
don't know Jesus.
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:57
			So, Jesus, I don't know, Mohammed's awesome say, I don't know, all the prophets, none of them ever
said on and they're not scared to say, Well, people are not going to follow him because they see all
this. They all said that this knowledge rests with Allah. And he says that I've hidden this from
anyone. No, not even the angels. No. And even the the the angel will blow the horn, right? He
doesn't know he doesn't know he's waiting. He's waiting is like about but he doesn't know when it's
gonna answer. I mean, that's an amazing you know, exactly a profit. Exactly. So, these are the
profit shop, you know, they are they are I mean, they are trustworthiness, they are honest, they
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:40
			speak only that, which Allah commands them to speak. So we can list out the Christian viewers, if
they're watching. I would like to, you know, or request them, analyze these five reasons and judge
yourself. Yeah. He never claimed himself to be God. He said something contrary to you know, being
God. He said, you know, things which as, as a prophet says, He never, he always worshipped God, God
Almighty, and he has distinct qualities than God. So these are the vibrational, you know, things
that we can at the same time, I also invite the people, you know, the Christian, to actually analyze
also the arguments that their pastors and their leaders, give them to convince them that Jesus is
		
00:17:40 --> 00:18:15
			God, and to see if these arguments make sense, number one, and whether they're backed up by
scriptures, and are the scriptures here are people trying to, you know, men do mental gymnastics,
and, you know, play with the scriptures? Because that's very important, you know, because we don't
want people to go, you know, I'm an engineer sitting there, you know, behind the camera, talking
about things they don't know, because my pastor told me all, you know, 10 verses that proves that
Jesus God actually read those verses, actually analyze those arguments very carefully, and see
whether Jesus agree with those were the scriptures agree with those? And what is not we've just
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:58
			quoted you so many different proves that Jesus say no. So why would these two contradict and what's
going on? They cannot be the both of them are true. And the whole concept of, you know, full man,
fully man, 100% man and 100% God, it was made to respond to those kind of you know, allegation.
Well, yeah, those verses are true. And these verses are true, because Jesus was fully man and fully
God. I mean, this is an fatica Lee refuted by the Bible, the Bible. So it says in Noah's in two
different places, in in Book of Numbers, chapter 23, verse 19, God is not a man. God is not a man,
chorus or a man that he shall lie. Nor assignment. administrator Panthers. Exactly, exactly. And
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:40
			then in Book of Job, chapter 25, was three to five or three to six. It says, How can man be
justified with God? I mean, how can you equate man with God when he in terms of you know, in
comparison with God is like, it's like a mega, tiny creature. Nothing, no creation at the end of the
day. So how can you equate, you know, God with man? it I mean, this is something derogatory,
coincidentally, as you said, you know, when they go back to the the pastors, their own leaders, you
know, learn what people one of the things that happened, you know, I had one of the dialogues with
one German scholar, and the audience were not common people. They were Muslim students, and the
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:59
			Christian students, I mean, Christians who are learning the students of Bible and interfaith
basically. So we had a very selective gathering. And during the, you know, dialogue, after the
dialogue, I've been mentioning the you know, court of, you know, proofs regarding Jesus Christ,
peace be upon him, not God and about crucifixion and things like that.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:18
			This one of the students, he goes back and he asked the pastor, he will saying this and this and
this, what do you say about it? This is you know, I will not answer you Jesus will answer you, oh
sleep and you will have a dream and you will have vision of Jesus. Allah says one day pass second
day parents.
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:22
			So Masha Allah, he accepted Islam.
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:43
			So this is I mean, this is something truth. And truth is always appealing, should is always
attractive. Truth is very authentic. And truth is always clear and simple. And that's why we claim
that our conception of God is clear, is simple, is complete, is authentic.
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:56
			So that's what we need. I mean, the people as as Paul says, God is not the author of confusion,
especially in the matters of God. So pawsitive taken some some lessons.
		
00:20:57 --> 00:21:27
			So we say that look, study, study, study, you will verify the truth in Sharla and this business here
and it's very important that people you know are sincere and they're not looking for what they want
or no look into some kind of specs that someone else has you know, dictated before but they're
actually sincere. When you click are less or less break inshallah giving the last thought shall,
again, our phones for lines are open if you want to give us a call. So we're gonna take a short
break and we'll come back with the last few thoughts and shout from Mohammed and myself.
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:29
			Jesus
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:34
			a chance to gain re
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:37
			spend on you
