bringing at your side Islamic scholars from various fields of study. As Amanda has been given
emphasis in Islam, we deem it fit to remind one another. In this book, I'm known to be called Islam.
		

			I am Mohammed mujtaba. Stay with us Let's drive the next hour and take an Islamic tour in sha Allah.
As always, I don't do this program alone. Hence with us today is an Islamic scholar born in Jamaica.
He comes from a family of educationist both his parents were teachers and his grandfather was a
church minister and a Bible scholar. But when he was 11, his family migrated to Canada. After so
many years, he completed a diploma in Arabic and got to be from the College of Islamic discipline
was sold in as the University of Medina in 1979. And later, his masters at the University of Riyadh
and then a PhD in Islamic theology at the University of Wales in 1994.
		

			This scholar taught Islamic education and Arabic in schools and lectured in various universities
like Sharif kabu on Islamic University in the Philippines, presently, is a lecturer of Arabic and
Islamic Studies at the American University in Dubai, and a German University in a German UAE has
founded and directed many Islamic organizations including what is now known as discover Islam. And

and also the founder and Chancellor of the Islamic online university. He is among the globally known
Islamic speakers and lecturers of this time. There is no time to waste. There is no time for
		

			holidays, says this man. When you realize how little time there is and how much work has to be done
for Islam. degrades man is Sheriff Dr. Abu Amina bill Phillips Salam aleikum wa alaikum Salaam
Morocco over cattle doctor Welcome to a wavy television Welcome to Sierra Leone hamdulillah my
pleasure to be here I happy allows Give me the opportunity to visit Sierra Leone again this is the
third visit actually Okay.
		

			Well yours insha Allah we are going to learn a lot and increase our Islamic we need to know that
Islam is not a part time job but a full time one. Which resignation comes only when you live the war
and head for the year after inshallah we are going to get salary. May Allah give us a handsome
reward. not wasting any time Dr. Milan Phillips and I need to be personal for now. We are you born
in Islam?
		

			No, I was born in a Christian family in Kingston, Jamaica. Jamaica. Mashallah. So how do you come to
me to snow?
		

			Well, that was a journey, you know, of part of my life. As you mentioned, my family migrated to
Canada. I grew up in Canada, and
		

			in university, I got involved in politics, student politics, and from that, actually, I went from
Christianity to communism.
		

			Believing that communism had the answer to problems of the world and, you know, equality between
people, and just distribution of wealth and all these other types of things, you know, but after
being a communist for a number of years, I came to realize that communism really wasn't the answer.
And that led me then to look elsewhere. And at that point in time, I stumbled upon Islam as a proper
teaching, because I had come across Islam in the US, you know, in a group called the Black Muslims,
or the Nation of Islam. And farrakhan is now the person in the US who continues to espouse those
ideas, but they weren't true teachings of Islam. So I wasn't interested in them at all, when I found
		

			real Islam, proper Islam, and I came to realize that all of the things that I was looking for in
communism, and the things that I respected in capitalism, you know, which
		

			communism and thrown aside, but was not really able to function without these things existed in
Islam, the good elements of communism was there in Islam, and even, you know, the good elements of
Christianity in terms of, you know, teachings of, of spiritual nature, which deal with being good,
recognizing God in your life, and living a righteous life and these types of things. They're all
there in Islam, Islam had a system, you know, a system of economics, a social system, it was a
series of systems, it was that it could fulfill the needs of society from all aspects. So when I
read enough and talked with enough people and became convinced that this really was the answer, this
		

			is when I decided to become a Muslim, back in 1970 to 1972, before you were born, Indeed, indeed,
before I was born, so Mashallah, since you're a Muslim,
		

			that you've encountered, or things are just Well, well, of course, as a Muslim, you know, you're
going to encounter difficulties myself coming from a non Muslim background, you know, adjusting to
		

			Muslim practices, and, you know, learning them.
		

			One of the things that drove me to study Arabic, formerly was because of the fact that my early in
my first year of Islamic when I met Muslims from so many different places, I had a friend who was
from Ghana, you know, one from Morocco, another one from Egypt, one from Pakistan. And each person
had, you know, different twists, different understandings, different ideas, and that's what sort of
drove me to want to go and find out well, what really is the original teachings, and also, these
were amongst the trials that the new Muslim tends to face when he or she becomes comes into Islam,
you know, that, that they may hear cultural Islam
		

			as taught by the various cultures that they are surrounded by, you know, and it may become a bit
confusing, if you don't find out or meet people who can give you a good clear picture of what
Islamic teachings are. Okay, so the solution to that is to get in and study Islam as well. Yeah, and
to try to get it from the source you know, because of course, you can pick up books maybe these
books are also written by cultural you know, individuals writing it from their culture or, or their
school of thought or whatever, you know, you need to, to get in if a person really wants to know,
you know, what the teachings of Islam are, they need to get to the original sources, and read and
		

			study and get a correct idea of what the teachings are. Okay, so how can one get to know these
original sources? Well, now, you know, it's available in English. I mean, of course, the Quran as
you have here, this is an English Arabic version of the Quran. The Quran represents the book of
Revelation, which came to Prophet Muhammad, may God's peace and blessings be upon him. And it's
still here, you know, you can now read it and see what was that revelation? Now, if I were to ask
you, for example, as a Christian, can I see the gospel of Jesus, not the gospel of Matthew, Mark,
Luke, and john, I want to see the gospel of Jesus, what was revealed to Jesus, nobody can provide
		

			you with a book to get you, you know, to know the sources, where did it all come from? It's not
available, it's lost. So I'm hamdulillah in Islam that's available. If you want to know you know,
		

			What did the Prophet himself may God's peace and blessings be upon him? Say, what did he teach? How
did he live his life? And how did he guide us to live our lives and you have books of Hadith, which
compiled the various teachings that he gave, you know, accurately compiled, so you have access to
where the religion and all the practices originally came from. So you can now compare between what
people are doing today and what was taught, then, you know, have the law for the most part, I would
say that the fundamental teachings, you know, the five pillars of Islam, praying five times a day
fasting in Ramadan, Hodge, you know, giving Zakah, which is the compulsory charity, that hasn't
		

			changed, that's exactly the same as it was virtually no change. But in terms of people's day to day,
social practices, you know, there have been changes as Islam spread to different parts of the world,
people came into Islam and brought in with them some of their own cultures. And then in time, people
were not able to distinguish between what was their original culture, and what really was Islamic
teachings. So this is some of the difficulty that the person who newly comes into Islam may face.
Okay, I think the solution here is only for one to really get into the field of knowledge and learn
Islam. Alhamdulillah De Guzman with us today is Dr. Bilal Philips is a globally known scholar, of
		

			course, is no stranger to anyone in the world, because we are faced with his face, his poses
lectures, and most of what he does Alhamdulillah we are having him today, right? In our studios at a
wavy Wesley street doctor, and there's this thing. So many reverts people who come to Islam, they
tend to achieve much more than those limits in Islam. We don't know the reason why.
		

			Well, that may be exaggerated, you know, because perhaps, you know, the those who come into Islam
		

			and who have made contributions, they're highlighted, you know, so a lot of focus is put on them,
you know, so you hear about them, they're here, they're there, etc, people like Dr. Zakir Naik,
although he's not a convert to Islam. But, you know, he's a person who awoke to Islam in his own
area and other people like us investors, and Abdur Rahim green and you know, Yusuf Islam and others,
you know, there tends to be focus on them. But, you know, among people who are born in Islam, there
still there are many, many more who have made huge contributions also, you know, but so I wouldn't
want to say that it's all coming from the new Muslims, you know, the new converts to Islam. What I
		

			can say is, in general, maybe if you compare the average Muslim, to the average new Muslim, that in
terms of the practice of the religion, the average new Muslim may tend to be more sincere in their
practice, they're more, you know, careful to try to do everything and to do it, right. Whereas the
born in Islam Muslim, he takes things for granted, you know, he's just doing whatever his family
did, whatever his culture did, his people did. So he's not as careful. So he tends to be more
careless, in terms of dealing with the practice of Islam. So this is where I could say there will be
a difference. And it's natural, because the personal converts to Islam tries to find out what is
		

			Islam. Whereas, you know, somebody who was born in Islam, you don't have to find out what is Islam
you already know, Islam, you said, I, you know, my parents are Muslims, my, you know, my family, my
relatives, my neighbors, everybody's Muslim. So I, you know, I'm Muslim by by association.
		

			And a great man with also says Dr. Bill Phillips, the chancellor of Islamic online University, Dr.
You've moved in places around the world, in what could be a comparison between
		

			Islam in Europe and in Africa. Since you've been there on here also.
		

			When Islam in Europe, you know, if you take Canada, you take you say the West rather than saying
Europe, right, Europe represents a party in the West. So in Canada, where I grew up in and I've been
back to most often, you know, the communities of Muslims there are a mixture of people from all over
the Muslim world. So, you find
		

			more, you could say acceptance of different and cultural
		

			practices etc, people are more able to work with each other than underground where you might find,
you know, countries fighting each other, you know, in differences between Iraq for example, and and,
and Syria or Jordan and Quaid, people who may be involved in military struggles at different points,
when you meet them in Canada, well, they're all this, they're all the same in the sense that we are
a minority, we're in Canada, you know, you're not really an Iraqi anymore, you're Canadian, you're
not really a Kuwaiti anymore. You're, you're a Canadian, and your Canadian ness takes precedence
over your cultural backgrounds. So I would say that the communities of the west where Muslims are
		

			minorities and major cities of the West, maybe some one of the largest minorities, you could say
that they are more culturally integrated than in the Muslim world, you know, as we exist today,
Muslim world tends to be divided up in Africa, you know, there are lines which have been drawn by
the colonial masters which have separated our countries to such a degree that, you know, we have
different passports, different national anthems, you know, we identify ourselves differently, even
though you might even be from the same tribe, maybe half of your tribe is on one border and side of
the border, and the other half is on the other, but you're looking at each other in different in
		

			different ways. You know, so, I think that the the tribalism, the nationalism that may be found
		

			in the African countries today, now, which keep people apart, is less present there in the western
minority Muslim communities. So what would you advise Africans to do?
		

			Well, I think the efforts to try to develop, you know, an African Union, you know, where, you know,
you have one passport,
		

			you are able to travel freely between countries.
		

			infrastructure, roads, and, and railways, which allows people to move about the continent more
freely. I think this would go a long way. And this is really what Africa needs, you know, because
		

			the way things are now, I mean, we're suffering because of the divisions that existed, it's a
product of divide and conquer, we were conquered and divided up those divisions, keep us you know,
exploited as an exploited nation instead of a nation with all these resources, producing and and
selling to the rest of the world and benefiting financially and developing their own society. We
just are a service nation, we just provide our services provide our manpower, provider resources,
and everybody you know takes benefit from it. Okay. Dr. Milan, let me take you back in your hometown
to Jamaica. And we see we know Jamaica to be people of music people love something outside Islam.
		

			Now, just from anywhere we see Dr. Bilal Philips a man who has done his in the field of Islam so
much. We are in your legacy in Islam, Masha Allah, Allah would you it would be forever inshallah. So
is Gemma collectors. Do we see it?
		

			Yeah, Jamaica is as you as is portrayed, you know, it's famous figures will say in bolt is the
fastest man in the world. And there is a female also Jamaican, who's fastest woman in the world and
		

			you know, Bob Marley and reggae and, you know, tourism and all these things that that is Jamaica, no
doubt. But Islam is spreading there. You know it when I accepted Islam back in the 70s. And I went
out to Jamaica, you know, I could hardly find any Muslims in Jamaica at all. You know, I only ran
into maybe two or three. You know, now there are 1000s and there are mosques all over Jamaica, you
know, so, time has passed and knowledge and information about Islam is spread. Many people actually
Jamaicans find Islam. In other locations. They go to the UK, they go to the US, and they come across
Islam, then they bring it back to Jamaica, so a lot of it came that way. Okay. So in the long run,
		

			we would see Jamaica inshallah, to be coping with Islam. Yeah, it will be. I think Islam will play a
bigger and bigger role in the future of Jamaica. I mean, it's still a minority. I don't see it as
going beyond minority
		

			position is never going to become an Islamic State. I don't. I wouldn't expect that. But it's it's,
it's a sizable minority that's growing and will have an influence, you know, in the future on the
development of Jamaica. Okay, Dr. Miller, and there are so many propaganda going out there about
Muslims, Islam, Islamic scholars on two occasions, one with Dr. Zakir Naik, wherein he was allege
that he is having an issue with the duck attack. So, how are you? You did the scholars, Islamic
scholars? How are you coping with the media pressure?
		

			Well, the media, you know, is the biggest source of false information about Islam. You know,
Islamophobia comes from the media, it's a product of the media, the media has created false
impressions, fears, etc, you know, highlighting and, and over emphasizing minor issues, blowing them
out of proportion. What can you do? What can anybody do? The only way is for Muslims to be more and
more involved in media, you know, and I encourage people all the time Muslim communities to take
part in media, too, right, become journalists, you know, get our voice heard. The internet is a
major, you know, leveling field for everybody, because anybody can write anything on the internet,
		

			you know, you know, and Hamdulillah, I have over 5 million followers on my Facebook page. So I, you
know, when issues come relative to myself, I can say something at least 5 million people will hear
it, you know, and they can spread it to another 5 million, whatever. So, that's my part. That's what
I can do, you know, and being on programs like this, also to help clarify these false impressions,
false information, which are out there. Okay, so what's your relationship with those colors, the
doctor clinic enough to make the rest of them? Well, we're close friends, you know, the doctor is
iconic. Of course, he said on piece TV, I do programs for pstv on a regular basis, you know, those
		

			accusations against him are totally false. In fact, the media in India was forced to take them back
and apologize and all these other kinds of things. But usually, we don't see the apologies and the
taking back and all this we only see, you know, in the media when the attack comes, this is the
problem, you know, but we're friends, we're close friends, we share programs, we do things together.
		

			Okay, Mashallah Hamdulillah, we are having to deal with those guys on culture, Islam. Dr. Bill and
Phillips is the chancellor for Islamic online university. He came on tour in several international
law, we appreciate his presence. And we are looking forward to seeing him very frequently all the
time, I could say, inshallah, a doctor. So since you came in Sierra Leone, what is your assessment?
How do you see Islam here?
		

			Well, there's a huge potential. I mean, Muslims are the majority in although there don't have really
a presence, you know, in the, in the political, economic, social
		

			atmosphere of the country, you know, they're very much in the background. And they do need to play a
bigger role.
		

			We have issues here, especially, you know, in the areas of education, this is why I came to Sierra
Leone in the first place, was to promote my University's options for the disenfranchised youth of
the country, whether Muslim or non Muslim, you know, but to provide for them the opportunity to get
access to higher education, which they normally wouldn't have. So there is a huge need in the
country as a result of, you know, what happened in the war, Civil War of the past,
		

			as well as the Ebola and the effects of Ebola and wiping out families, you know, so many orphans are
produced, having no means to fend for themselves. So there's a huge need in the country. And I felt
that, you know, my university has so much to offer to the country that you know, it was obligatory
on me to try to do something here some of my classmates when I studied in Medina University, and in
Riyadh were from Sierra Leone. So
		

			you know, I made contact with them. Since
		

			I've been barking and hamdulillah. You know, there's there's a lot that I hope to accomplish here
for the betterment of the society as a whole.
		

			And particularly for the Muslim community, and in the area of education, in uplifting the overall
consciousness of the Muslim Ummah, here, you know, to prevent the possibility of groups like Boko
Haram or Shabaab or any of these other types of groups, from arising here, who arise where there is
a vacuum, where there is ignorance, they play on people's emotions, and draw them into acts which
are against society, acts of terrorism, etc, all of it in the name of Islam, but they can only
succeed where people are ignorant, where people have a knowledge of Islam, they have a background,
then they are not able to promote their ideas.
		

			So Hamdulillah, we we've had that, let's say Islam and politics. Now, for instance, in Sierra Leone,
most of our Islamic scholars tend to shift far away from politics, thinking it is evil, it is
something that will take them off Islam, what would be your advice in that?
		

			My advice would be that, you know, a righteous Islamic politician, you know, is needed, that people
can see that
		

			one can be a politician and be an honest politician, you know, looking after the needs and the
rights of people, you know, and be known, you know, as the incorruptible, the uncorruptible
politician, you know, that's what we need. We don't need Muslims will come into politics and be
corrupted by politics because then you're just like everybody else, you know, so we need because
that is the example that the prophet may God's peace and blessings be upon him left. He left for us
the example of of honesty and trustworthiness he was known as, I mean, the trustworthy the honest.
So we need to bring that aspect of Islam this aspect of character back into the forefront so people
		

			can respect Muslims again. Okay, so we don't need to stay back live in politics with the non Muslims
No, that is foolish. It's foolish because you know, politics is the running governance running of
the country and Muslims being a majority should play an active part should be you know, represented
in the government you know, by their numbers or representative numbers should be there to be able to
express their points of view but we do need to have you know, honest and reliable politicians. Okay,
we do need to have honest and reliable politicians. So Dr. Bilal Philips Masha Allah we are having
him live at the wavy studios Wesley Street. inshallah we are going out for a break. Let's take a
		

			look at this video a very interesting one that would send a message to you that we will discuss
later on in sha Allah, stay with us. We call to Islam and
		

			inshallah,
		

			Islamic online university,
		

			changing the nation through education.
		

			Register now and get started. Visit www.io u.edu. GM for more details.
		

			Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Welcome again, the program is called to Islam. And so the
result is the man himself Dr. beeler Phillips, globally known Islamic scholar and Chancellor of
Islamic University, Dr. without wasting any time, you know, the chancellor of Islamic University.
How does this come about?
		

			Well, Islamic online university is a product of some years of my own development as a university
professor, founder of Islamic Studies departments in the UAE, setting up my own university also in
Chennai, India, and
		

			working with universities in the Sudan
		

			that culminated in the online presence of university level education, which was missing. There was a
vacuum. There are a few universities available but not accessible to the masses of the people. So
		

			when I realized that the need
		

			was a global need. I'd been working locally, I'd worked in the UAE for years. I was in Qatar working
there. Also on the university level running university programs. I worked setting up the university
in Chennai in India, you know, these were all localized. So all you can eat in India was sort of
national, but I wanted to go international, I wanted to be able to reach a much wider audience. So
the online route was the is the only route it was clear ahead of me that I needed to take that
route.
		

			capacity.
		

			Right now we have 260 plus 1000 students, 260,000 students, you know, we have average about 100 new
students signing up with us every day, every day. 100 students Yes. Mashallah. So throughout the
people sign up.
		

			Throughout the year there, as I said, every day, 365 days a year, we have an average of 100 students
joining so we have approximately 36,000 new students who register every year. Sure. So what causes
Do you offer
		

			we're offering
		

			not only Sharia, because of course, when people hear the name Islamic online university, they see
Islamic they think, oh, there must be studying Quran and Hadith in Arabic. You know, it's Islamic
Studies, Sharia This is what's expected? Well, it is true, we did begin with Islamic Studies. In
fact, when we started University in 2007, we started it as a free diploma. You know, we offered a
free Diploma in Islamic Studies, just to spread general knowledge around the world. And we've kept
that three diploma program going, because until now, I mentioned we have about 260,000 students, but
really 254,000 of them are in the free diploma. Okay, there's only 6000 students who are actually
		

			paying fees for for undergraduate programs. So what you asked me about was the different programs
we're offering. So we offer Sharia, and we offer it in English medium. This is what's unique,
because you can find others childcare programs available in Arabic online also. But we're teaching
in English medium being the global language. And added to that we teach Arabic students after learn
Arabic also, but it's basically an English medium. And we started off as I said, with the program
for Sharia or Islamic Studies. However, in 2014, when our first batch of students graduated, and we
had for the first time in history,
		

			university graduation online,
		

			where students receive their certificate, you know, valedictorian addresses were given guest
speakers where there are 1000s watched as students graduated online. So we made history on that day
in 2014. At that same time, in 2014, we added three new courses in one bachelor's in education,
bachelor's in psychology, and a Bachelor's in Islamic banking and finance. And in 2015, we added
also a Bachelor's in Business Administration and a Bachelor's in information technology. And this
year, we're adding also a Bachelor's in Arabic language for teaching Arabic to non native speakers
of Arabic.
		

			So in the clear context, I will use not limited to museums. No, it is open for any and everybody.
Okay, are there several unions? Yes, we have some some hundreds that have registered already. You
know, and in the
		

			so we had a graduate
		

			from St. Louis, we had with a one one graduate, and he had the lie he was accepted in university in
Russia is currently doing his master's there in Russia. Mashallah. So, are you having teachers also
from Sierra Leone? We have some professors from Sierra Leone in our courses, and we'll be hiring a
number of others because we know before when we hired we hired just for Islamic Studies, whereas now
we're looking for professors in other fields in Mass Communications, for example, because we want to
start that up next year mass mass communications and in public health. We also want to launch
courses in public health. Okay, Mashallah. So, how would you compare Utah the standard universities
		

			around the world
		

			well, it
		

			is among what we may call the mega universities, in that we have, you know, over 100,000 students
out who our number is actually 260,000 Plus, right. So from that perspective, we're in a small group
of universities that may be called mega universities. But beyond that, we are unique in the sense
that all of the courses that we teach, are taught from a comparative perspective. We're not taking
from the field of education, for example, just whatever is taught in conventional universities,
whether here or in the West, we're taking that looking at it, judging it, analyzing it, comparing it
to what Islam teaches, etc. so that the students will get a feel for what that particular discipline
		

			has to offer society, and to be able to choose what is the best way in which that may be delivered?
So we have a comparative, you know, critical thinking approach to our studies.
		

			Meaning you just don't have a causes for the sake of offering you scrutinize them the perspective of
Islam, yes, martial law. So as you're planning the future
		

			for IOU here, you know, we are in the process of
		

			gaining accreditation in the country with the TC where we've already gotten the accreditation from
the NCT VA,
		

			which is for offering the diploma and certificate level courses. We're now working on the next
level. And we plan to partner with other educational institutions around the country to be able to
bring university education into high schools, you know, where where you have high schools where
students are graduating, and they are in other parts of the country like Bo or whatever, they don't
have a means to come here to, to to Freetown or they can't afford it. You know, that we want to try
to develop learning centers in such
		

			Institute's institutes, where the students can just continue their education into university level
education using online study. Mashallah, as you've said, IU is among the mega universities. So what
does it cost me if I want to live you? Well, I owe you is also
		

			perhaps the lowest costing university in the world.
		

			The lowest the student pays only $70 per semester, registration fee, not per class per semester,
that's $140 per year. That's $560 for an accredited bachelor's degree in the fields which I
mentioned, Mashallah, this is a blessing I use a blessing Mashallah, we thank Allah for sending for
us Dr. Bilal Philips, because he is doing his in the field of Islam. And in other issues around the
world. We appreciate that so much May Allah handsomely reward you. So if one could want to contact
people from within Sierra Leone? Are you having any contact here whom are working on your behalf?
Yes, we have
		

			an eight Stuart Street. We have a branch office that is being set up there. We're on eight, Stuart
book history. Yes. And we have a representative here, who is the Registrar of the campus that we're
developing there. And his contact number is 076847100. You may be contacted on the number or zero
double 8027334 so we can get further information. Through those numbers. We're setting up a full
operation there on Stuart street over the next couple of weeks. This the place should be in full
operation, and we welcome people to contact us. Or as you saw in the ad, that that came previously
about the semicolon University. You just have to go to the online site and register. Because we are
		

			accredited in Somalia. We are officially accredited by the Ministry of higher education in Somalia.
You know, our name is
		

			Within the list of UNESCO recognized universities, accredited universities, okay in Africa.
Mashallah. So Dr. Bilal Philips time is against us now, what would be your final answer? Well, my
final words to the people of
		

			Sierra Leone, to uplift this country through spreading education knowledge, which will help to
develop a more productive youth oriented society. Because we know that
		

			theory on like the other countries of Africa have a preponderance of youth 60 70% are young people,
which is quite different from the west where it's the opposite way around. This is an advantage for
the development of the country, but the youth need to be properly educated, so that they can
contribute to the development of the Sassa society. So we need to all put our hands together, you
know, and help with those of us that have means need to provide scholarships, and help these young
people, you know, uplift themselves and uplift the society along with them. So that's my final words
