record the Ramadan is the month in which the Glorious Quran was

00:00:18 --> 00:00:22

revealed as a guidance for humanity. Allah subhanaw taala

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

says in the Glorious Quran and SOTL Ibrahim chapter 14 was number

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

be in order to lead mankind from the depths of darkness into light.

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

Allah subhanaw taala says in the Glorious Quran and subtlely Brahim

00:00:45 --> 00:00:51

chapter 14 was number 52. Had Bella only NAS while in the Ruby

00:00:51 --> 00:00:55

00:00:59 --> 00:01:03

know that there is one God let men of understanding take heed. Allah

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

subhanaw taala says in the glorious transfer to Zoomer

00:01:06 --> 00:01:12

chapter 29 wisdom 41 that the book is delivered to be that Prophet

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

Muhammad peace be upon him in order to instruct humanity. So the

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

Glorious Quran, it is not meant only for the Muslims or only for

00:01:19 --> 00:01:24

the Arabs, but the Glorious Quran, it is meant for the whole of

00:01:24 --> 00:01:30

humanity. And today we see in the international media, there is

00:01:30 --> 00:01:34

virulent propaganda about Islam, the media, it is bombarding

00:01:34 --> 00:01:38

misinformation about Islam, whether it be the international

00:01:38 --> 00:01:41

news channels, whether it be the radio broadcast stations, whether

00:01:41 --> 00:01:45

it be television channels, there is virulent propaganda about Islam

00:01:45 --> 00:01:50

in the international media, the media is bombarding misinformation

00:01:50 --> 00:01:54

about Islam, and those articles published in the Newsweek magazine

00:01:54 --> 00:02:01

on the 16th of April 1979 In the span of 150 years from 1800 to

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

1950. And it mentioned that no less than 60,000 books were

00:02:06 --> 00:02:12

written against Islam. If you do the calculation, no less than at

00:02:12 --> 00:02:17

least one book is written against Islam every day. This was between

00:02:17 --> 00:02:24

1800 to 1950 after 911 This has reached epidemic levels. Every

00:02:24 --> 00:02:30

day, several books are written against Islam. And today many

00:02:30 --> 00:02:33

people they use the strategy if you want to become famous, write a

00:02:33 --> 00:02:38

book against Islam malign Islam attack Islam. This is a common

00:02:38 --> 00:02:42

strategy that is used by many individuals in order to become

00:02:42 --> 00:02:46

famous in order to become popular. They light a book against Islam.

00:02:47 --> 00:02:51

So the media and the critics of Islam they use various strategies

00:02:52 --> 00:02:58

in order to malign Islam in order to misrepresent Islam. The number

00:02:58 --> 00:03:03

one strategy that is used by the media, in order to malign Islam is

00:03:03 --> 00:03:07

the pick up black sheep of the Muslim community. And they portray

00:03:07 --> 00:03:11

these people as though they are exemplary Muslims,

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14

that are black sheep in every community, whether it be the

00:03:14 --> 00:03:17

Christian community, whether it be the Hindu community, whether it be

00:03:17 --> 00:03:21

the Jewish community, but the media picks up these black sheep

00:03:21 --> 00:03:25

and portrays as to the exemplary Muslim. And I would like to give

00:03:25 --> 00:03:31

you an example. For example, there is the latest Mercedes car, s 450

00:03:31 --> 00:03:38

or s 500. The s 450, the 2022 or 2023 model. And in order to test

00:03:38 --> 00:03:41

drive this car you put behind the steering wheel, an inexperienced

00:03:41 --> 00:03:45

driver and he bangs up the car, who will you blame the car or the

00:03:45 --> 00:03:50

driver but naturally will blame the driver. If you want to know

00:03:50 --> 00:03:54

how good this car is, look at the specifications. Look at the pickup

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

look at the horsepower, look at the safety measures. Look at the

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00

features and if you want to practically judge how good the car

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

is put behind the steering wheel an expert driver. Similarly if you

00:04:05 --> 00:04:09

want to judge how good Islam is, read the Glorious Quran, read the

00:04:09 --> 00:04:12

authentic teachings of our beloved Prophet Muhammad peace be upon

00:04:12 --> 00:04:15

him. And if you want to practically judge how good Islam

00:04:15 --> 00:04:20

is, do not look at the followers look at the best human being who

00:04:20 --> 00:04:23

ever walked on the face of the earth. That is our beloved Prophet

00:04:23 --> 00:04:26

Muhammad peace and blessings be upon read his Syrah our beloved

00:04:26 --> 00:04:30

Prophet Muhammad peace be upon he was the major benefactor in

00:04:30 --> 00:04:34

bringing peace to humanity. So the the Sidra of our beloved Prophet

00:04:34 --> 00:04:39

Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and we shall realize

00:04:39 --> 00:04:45

that Islam is the solution for humanity. The second strategy used

00:04:45 --> 00:04:52

by the media is the pick up Jews by the media and in fact even the

00:04:52 --> 00:04:56

critics of Islam is the pick up verses of the Glorious Quran and

00:04:56 --> 00:04:59

decoded out of context. And one such exam

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

Bill is where in the critics of Islam and a famous critic by the

00:05:04 --> 00:05:08

name of Arun Suri. He writes in his book The World of fatwas, and

00:05:08 --> 00:05:11

he goes to the to Toba. Chapter number nine was number five. And

00:05:11 --> 00:05:15

he says that the Glorious Quran says and so to Toba chapter number

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18

nine was number five wherever you find a cafe you should kill him.

00:05:19 --> 00:05:23

If you open the Glorious Quran, Allah subhanaw taala does say in

00:05:23 --> 00:05:26

the Glorious Quran sutra toolbar chapter number nine wisdom five

00:05:26 --> 00:05:29

better will you find a cafe should Killip but it is in context. In

00:05:29 --> 00:05:33

order to read the context you need to read from the start of the Toba

00:05:33 --> 00:05:37

from was number one, in the first few words of Surah Toba chapter

00:05:37 --> 00:05:41

nine, Allah subhanaw taala is talking about a peace treaty

00:05:41 --> 00:05:45

between the mosaics of Makkah and the Muslims. And this peace treaty

00:05:45 --> 00:05:49

is unilaterally broken by the mosaics of Makkah. And by the time

00:05:49 --> 00:05:54

Allah subhanaw, Taala reaches was some four and five he is giving

00:05:54 --> 00:05:57

the most ships of maca and ultimatum, a warning that put

00:05:57 --> 00:05:59

things straight in four months time, otherwise declaration of

00:05:59 --> 00:06:05

fall and later on when the music's of makadi, big the peace treaty,

00:06:05 --> 00:06:09

war is declared. And in Surah, October chapter number nine was

00:06:09 --> 00:06:12

number five, Allah subhanaw taala say in the battlefield, it is in

00:06:12 --> 00:06:16

context, in the battle field, wherever you find the enemies

00:06:16 --> 00:06:20

wherever we find the non Muslims, when you are fighting them, kill

00:06:20 --> 00:06:25

them, and any army general in order to boost the morale of the

00:06:25 --> 00:06:28

soldiers. He will say wherever you find the enemies kill them, the

00:06:28 --> 00:06:32

Army General will not say that run away. So we need to look at the

00:06:32 --> 00:06:37

context. For example, if there is a war going on between USA and

00:06:37 --> 00:06:43

Vietnam, and the USA Army General tells his soldiers that wherever

00:06:43 --> 00:06:47

you find a Vietnamese you kill him, it is in context it is in the

00:06:47 --> 00:06:51

battlefield. But today if I called the USA Army General and if I say

00:06:51 --> 00:06:53

that the USA Army General is saying by the way you find a

00:06:53 --> 00:06:55

Vietnamese today you kill him, I would make him sound like a

00:06:55 --> 00:07:00

butcher. So it is in context, it is in the battlefield. So the

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

critics of Islam they pick up war says of the Glorious Quran and the

00:07:04 --> 00:07:08

quoted out of context, and if you read the Hindu scriptures, it

00:07:08 --> 00:07:11

talks about fighting against oppression. And in the Hindu

00:07:11 --> 00:07:15

scriptures, it is mentioned in Bhagavad Gita, chapter number one

00:07:15 --> 00:07:21

was Psalm 4647 and 48. It talks about the war against oppression

00:07:21 --> 00:07:28

against injustice, and law and Krishna tells Arjuna encouraging

00:07:28 --> 00:07:31

him to fight against oppression, to fight against injustice. And in

00:07:31 --> 00:07:35

fact, in Bhagavad Gita, chapter number one was Psalm 4647 48.

00:07:35 --> 00:07:41

Arjun, he says that I would prefer dying an arm rather than fighting

00:07:41 --> 00:07:44

with my relatives. And in Bhagavad Gita, chapter number two was

00:07:44 --> 00:07:48

number two and three, it is mentioned, Krishna tells Arjuna

00:07:48 --> 00:07:53

that how can you be so important? It is the duty of a chakra of a

00:07:53 --> 00:07:59

warrior to fight and even if it be against your relatives. Now, if I

00:07:59 --> 00:08:03

quote, The Hindu scriptures, and if I say that Krishna said to

00:08:03 --> 00:08:07

Arjuna, that fight your relatives, but naturally it is out of

00:08:07 --> 00:08:11

context, it is in context, it is in the battle field, to fight

00:08:11 --> 00:08:14

against oppression to fight against injustice. So your we

00:08:14 --> 00:08:19

realize the critics of Islam, the pick up verses of the Glorious

00:08:19 --> 00:08:25

Quran and decode these verses of the Glorious Quran out of context,

00:08:25 --> 00:08:29

and after quoting, so to talk about chapter nine was from five

00:08:29 --> 00:08:32

if we read the next was of sorts of Toba, chapter number nine was

00:08:32 --> 00:08:37

number six. Allah subhanaw taala says that if the enemies did want

00:08:37 --> 00:08:40

peace, don't just grant to them, escort them to a place of

00:08:40 --> 00:08:45

security. Today, the most generous Army General maximum you can tell

00:08:45 --> 00:08:49

enemies is Go away, you are free, but the Glorious Quran goes a step

00:08:49 --> 00:08:53

further. And Allah subhanaw taala says that do not just grant it to

00:08:53 --> 00:08:58

them, escort them to a place of security. Certain people, they may

00:08:58 --> 00:09:02

argue and say that the Glorious Quran says escort them to a place

00:09:02 --> 00:09:05

of security, so that they will establish prayer and if they

00:09:05 --> 00:09:08

become Muslims, then only release them. This is mentioned the

00:09:08 --> 00:09:13

Glorious Quran, but at the same time, the Glorious Quran also

00:09:13 --> 00:09:18

mentioned and the meaning is that if the enemies even if they don't

00:09:18 --> 00:09:21

accept Islam, if they're asking for peace, then P should be

00:09:21 --> 00:09:27

granted to them. So the Glorious Quran is very crystal clear as far

00:09:27 --> 00:09:34

as promoting peace is concerned. Islam it is the religion of peace.

00:09:35 --> 00:09:38

And on surely after quoting Serato by chapter nine, verse number

00:09:38 --> 00:09:42

five, he directly jumps towards number seven. Why? Because verse

00:09:42 --> 00:09:46

number six has the answer or the response to sickness, Allah

00:09:46 --> 00:09:49

subhanaw taala says so Toba chapter number nine was number

00:09:49 --> 00:09:53

six, that if the enemies want peace do not just granted to them

00:09:53 --> 00:09:57

escort them to a place of security. So yo we realize the

00:09:57 --> 00:09:59

critics of Islam, they pick up words

00:10:00 --> 00:10:03

Because of the Glorious Quran and the quoted out of context
