			See what everyone's talking about?
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			Jesus was his messenger
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:51
			Bismillah Alhamdulillah Salaam Alaikum. Peace be with you today. In the studio, we have shit come
out and mechi we come back here on the deen show, we are going to answer some of the top five
misconceptions about Islam. And then when it clear out the junk from the trunk, and then we're going
to deliver the sweet message of Islam for all of those that have been inspiring to know the truth.
We're going to give you the clear, simple explanation of a snap. We come back here on the deen show
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:57
			there's only one
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			is His Messenger
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			Jesus was his messenger
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:58
			Why did that maybe? Maybe it's just a break the ice. Salaam Alaikum. Peace be with you? What if
cinema? Thank you very much. My pleasure. How are you been 100% people can on the deen show calm you
can visit. You have your own private special section, then click there on your picture. And they can
view some of the other shows that we've done with you. I feel honored hamdulillah to have my own
section on the deen show. That's it fantastic. Let the world know. Excellent. We like to keep it
really simple. Very good. So for the not yet Muslims who are tuning in, and the Muslims who want to
be able to explain Islam, but there are some Arabic terms and some misconceptions associated with
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:05
			some words. So we're going to give the people five of some of the common basic
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:45
			misconceptions that people have about some of these, well, you'll define them explain them. And at
the end, we'll get rid of the junk out of the trunk. And then we'll go ahead and explain everything
in fools so they can understand Islam a little bit better. Sounds like to start with this word,
Allah, okay, people think that this is some Arab God, or this is a moon guy. And they have this Miss
notion about this word, Allah. So let's start with this word, Allah. Excellent, very good. You know,
the the whole moon God and whatever other claim they actually specifically the moon god, there's
actually no evidence to this whatsoever. There's no record of any one God called Allah. But
		
00:02:45 --> 00:03:23
			unfortunately, it was people throughout history who couldn't explain away Islam. And so they had,
the best thing they could do is to forge some kind of lie about it, and said, that allow us some
kind of moon garden Arabia. And if that were the case, there would be a lot of evidence to that
would be Arab poetry, talking about this moon God, but we don't have anything of that sort. The name
Allah is very simply, or the word Allah is the name of God in Arabic. And I always tell people, if
you go to any country where there are Jews who speak Arabic, you will find them saying a lot, you
know, Morocco, Yemen, there's some Jews, and they say Allah, and if you go to a church in any Muslim
		
00:03:23 --> 00:04:03
			country, or any Arab country, and you'll see that the Arabic Bible says Allah and those people say
Allah, so sometimes you hear people say things like, you know, Allah is not the God of Moses. So you
really, and Christians would say that. So now what would an Arab Christians say to this, they'd be
very offended by that because they worship a lot. And it's a known fact that Muslims, Christians and
Jews, they do worship the same God, they believe in the same prophets, even the same geographic
locations are in both scriptures. The next common myth and misconception is that people, they have
Islam synonymous with terrorism. Right? How would you go ahead and explain this away? Well, you
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:38
			know, we have a joke about that when we're in the street talking to people, and they ask us this
question, tell people to tell Muslims to kill other people. And we always tell them that, well, if
that was the case, we wouldn't be talking right now, you know. And now, so actually, there is, you
know, terrorism is not part of Islam. And there isn't a verse that command tourism or anything of
that sort. But you know, the history of all religions, not just Islam is that there will always be
people who will either use religion to support their cause or to support their, you know, their
their struggle, and others who will say, you know, we're doing it because of this verse or that
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:59
			verse, but you have to consider the, you know, 1.3 or more billion Muslims on the planet, if all of
them were part of their religion was to go out and terrorize and to kill people, then there would be
a lot more havoc on Earth. But then why is it that we find only a small handful of people who use
their religions name, you know, to commit terror or things of that sort, because those are people
who choose
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:41
			to, you know, interpret things in a certain way and going that direction. But if it was the general
mainstream, then everybody would have been doing it. So there is no scripture or part of scripture
that says go and do that. So this is not it has nothing to do with Islam like 911. This even Muslims
died in 911. Exactly. And, and nobody, you know, nobody wants to consider that. So Muslims died on
in these buildings as well. So, you know, how could that be part of Islam to also if, if you're
claiming Islam says kill non Muslims and what Muslims get killed in this incident as well. And many
other things like even, like even in Saudi Arabia itself, they had a number of terror Acts where
		
00:05:41 --> 00:06:24
			civilians and Muslims got killed. So that means then we're dealing with specific, like rogue
individuals who are extremist or who have made interpretations in such a way and they use certain
scripture to say, this is how we justify these actions. So we've had also I know I have it on the
deen, show calm. I've had other scholars on the show that have condemned this. And even when it
happened, is it true that many of the top scholars, they didn't get much media press, but they all
condemned hijacking airplanes, killing innocent women and children 911, seven, seven, whatever, Time
Square bomber, all these things are not according to the teachings of Islam. Right? It's not
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:59
			according to Islam, and the majority of scholars, if not every living scholar, but still, like you
said, they don't get enough media attention. And what you hear is, why don't the Muslim scholars
come out and and, you know, and say this and that, and they do, but nobody listens to them. And at
the same time, also, it's very unfair, where, you know, a non Muslim would do the exact same thing
that a Muslim would do, but it's not referred to terrorism. And I remember it because I live in the
Washington DC area or used to live. And we had a couple of years ago, what was known as the DC
sniper. And this guy would go around and shoot people as they're coming from work and leaving the
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:34
			store, things like that. But he was fantastic. I was listening, and he was terrorizing. Everybody
was afraid to get gas during those days. But I remember clearly listening to the radio, and they
say, and the authorities have said that the sniper is not repeat, not a terrorist. What do you mean
is not a terrorist is terrorizing people. Yeah. But what it really meant was that, you know, this is
not a Muslim, but he was terrorizing people. So he shouldn't be a terrorist by definition. So
there's also, you know, it's not very fair when it comes to the media the other day, there was a
guy, this was many years ago, he packed his truck. He parked his tractor, has a tractor, and it's a
		
00:07:34 --> 00:08:14
			farmer. And he said he had enough the amount of explosives that brought down to Oklahoma building.
And there was a two day standoff with him in the newspapers only said disgruntled farmer, this guy
had bombs like the ones used in Oklahoma, and they only said disgruntled farmer, I would just love
if that guy had a little bit of a beard. And he was, you know, Muslim. It would not say disgruntled
the farmer disgruntled, it would immediately be a terrorist. But there was a man who actually he
flew a plane into the IRS building. And in Jacksonville, Florida, the man blew up or try to blow up
a mosque. And they didn't get much press. nor were they called terrorists. No, but if the name was
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:33
			Hassan, Ali, he'd be a terrorist. This is wrong. This is not critical. It's not fair. Where people a
piece who call people to piece to acquire a piece by submitting to the owner piece, the one create
tour. Excellent. That's it. Now let's take a break. We'll be more back with more of the common
misconceptions here on the deen show.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			I am not afraid
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:43
			I'm not afraid to say
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:47
			I am not afraid
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51
			I'm not afraid
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			I am not afraid
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:00
			I'm not afraid of
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:36
			one god wish come along do what he wants you to do put your desires this thing inside you that just
wants this and once that and you just can't get enough you know what you never get enough until the
dirt in your mouth Don't let it come to that be sincere and honest as the one who created you to
guide us the first step put off chasing all the women and the good times and the parties and this
and that there's no one worthy of worship except a lot don't wait you never know this would come
today for you in the
		
00:09:42 --> 00:10:00
			back here on the deen show. Next one getting right into it. We went from number five for now to
three that Islam subjugates to a woman oppresses the woman. Go ahead and take it away. What do we
have to say? Well, the best thing we can say is asked Muslim woman you see him in the streets all
over the place.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:36
			You know what they were asked him if they feel that they're oppressed, ask them if they're putting
on this garment because of their husband, because of pressure from the society or they're doing it
out of conviction that they're doing this for their Lord. And so and if you look also, in, you know,
Orthodox Jews, the woman cover the in Christianity, many different denominations, you'll find the
woman cover and the cover their head towards something else. And obviously, when you read the Bible,
it tells you that, you know, the woman is not supposed to go with her hair uncovered her head
uncovered in the church, it clearly says in the barber head, all right, well, there's one other
		
00:10:36 --> 00:11:11
			thing that happens, you know, they still do this today. That's why if you look in the States,
specifically, always the woman will wear a hat to church that had to church is the remnant is the
remainder of that order to not go into church with your head uncovered? Yeah, so even the woman
wears her hat, the church, she doesn't really know why she's doing it. But she's doing it initially,
because people used to not uncover. So now Jews are not supposed to uncover and the Christian women
are not supposed to uncover, but the ones following the Scripture, primarily would be the Muslims.
And so now they're singled out as the ones who are, you know, whatever oppressed or this and that,
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:45
			but everybody's supposed to be doing that to begin with? Wasn't the church for some time
contemplating if the woman even had a soul? Yeah, there were all kinds of issues. And if you could,
you know, you would inherit the woman and all kinds of things. And while this was going on in Europe
and other places, Islam had already given the woman her rights, and she was not a piece of furniture
and she was respected. But again, it takes you know, the honest individual who is going to go out
and ask questions, seeking the truth and seeking the right answer. And if you examine and you can
stop people and ask them and speak to them, and you'll see the truth, that it's not about
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:48
			oppression, or anything of that sort that the Prophet Mohammed.
		
00:11:49 --> 00:12:30
			And they throw certain false allegations on him that he was a warlord that he was about war and
fighting and womanizing, what do we have to say? Right? If he was about war, the wars wouldn't have
stopped, he wouldn't have signed peace treaties, and he wouldn't have, you know, refused to shed
blood. And even when he was victorious, and conquered the city of Mecca, no oppressed muslims for
years, when he gave the standard to one of the soldiers, that soldier said, Today, alone will
humiliate the chorus, which is the tribe of Mecca. And today is the day of bloodshed. So what did he
do? He took the standard from him and gave it actually to his son base, the son of Southern Nevada.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:13:07
			So the truth is, then if you wanted war, you know, well, keeps spilling blood. But why go through
peace treaties, Why settle in places and not go to war, and why all these things, so if he was a
warlord wouldn't stop at anything, just like, you know, in history, Napoleon, for example, you know,
he didn't stop at anything, he just kept going and going, and only the weather would stop him, he
would come back from Russia, and then he would go to Egypt, it just kept killing, you know. So
that's one thing, woman as far as being a womanizer, you know, the womanizer doesn't get one or two,
or three or four wives. There's no limit. You know, in the Quran, there's a verse that limits and
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:42
			tells the person that he cannot take any wife after this, right. And if he were a womanizer, then he
wouldn't be any limit. And he would marry as many as possible. But his first wife was 15 years older
than him. She was 40. And he was 25. And she was twice widowed. a womanizer doesn't marry someone
like that they marry a young girl who's still a virgin and things like that. He stayed with her for
15 years. Now, again, a womanizer wouldn't stay with one woman for that long, they just keep getting
married, especially if you can pretend to be a prophet, and people think you're a prophet of God.
You could put it right in your scripture, tell people, hey, you want to bless your wives, bring them
		
00:13:42 --> 00:14:21
			to the Prophet, when a * your daughters bring him to the Prophet. But that wasn't the case.
And so when we review and analyze the actions and the marriages, the prophet said, lamb, we come to
a clear conclusion that he was not doing it out of love of woman. And we actually see other wisdoms
behind his marriages. But again, it's for the truthful people to examine it unbiased. So we're
making this short, short and sweet. So you can see that these things are just a lot of childish
accusations that are thrown out. Some people are just going with the flow, and not really thinking.
But if any thinking man or woman come to this with an open heart and open mind, they can see that a
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:43
			lot of these are just foolish, foolish things that really hold no weight. Absolutely. And if they
were, if there was any truth to these things, a lot of Muslims wouldn't be Muslims. But the Muslims,
you know, we examine them. And we know that it doesn't add up, the accusation doesn't add up. And
that's why they don't hold much water. Muslims, they say worship a black box in the desert.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:59
			Right, and that the black box is as a sacred house, and it is not worshipped whatsoever is this part
of the ritual that it's circumambulated seven times. And part of those rituals also have to do with
submission because it's not means that
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:38
			Mission is not to amount to a monkey, but submit to the One God who created you. And so, part of
submitting is, we do certain actions like, for example, when we go around the sacred house, which we
believe was built as early as the Prophet Adam, and rebuilt again, the foundations by the prophet,
Abraham or Ibrahim, and then so it is the sacred place and has a great place in the hearts of the
believers. And so part of the ritual is to go and circumambulate the sacred house. Now, just like
when you go to a church, you don't worship the church building. When you go to a mosque, you don't
worship the mosque building, when you go to a synagogue, you don't worship the building, but that's
		
00:15:38 --> 00:16:23
			where you do the worship. And so when you go to Kaaba to them to Mecca, you do the worship, in that
area, in the quarter yard and around the physical structure, you're not worshiping the structure.
And obviously, anything that's worship, besides Allah is greatly shunned and discouraged and
prohibited to worship anything besides Allah, and Islam. Now, tell us, and go ahead, please,
because, okay, we move some of the junk out of the way. And now, while many other manmade religions,
they're very difficult to understand the divine religion, the way of life system from the Creator
has to be simple, and has to fit What's with what's deep inside. So show them just how simple it is
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:59
			when you when you're able to just explain the basic message of Islam. And let's say two minutes or
three, absolutely, we can do it in two minutes, because it's so simple, and allow it only reveal
something to you that you could understand and you could fathom as a human being. So it's really
simple, and nothing is easier than the number one, four isn't three isn't. And seven isn't. One God
who's indivisible, doesn't have children, doesn't have relatives, or grandparents or partners, or
neighbors or anything of that sort. This one, God created all of humanity. And out of his fairness,
he communicates with them, the best way to talk to them is through sending prophets and messengers
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:35
			rather than appearing to them. Because if he appears, he has to appear for every generation. And for
everyone that's being born as we speak, they need to see this. So the most The thing that makes the
most sense is that he sends prophets and messengers, these are good, noble and chosen people from
amongst a nation or a group. And Allah will communicate with them through the Archangel Gabriel. And
this has been the situation if you read throughout the Old Testament, the New Testament and the
Quran, this is how to communicate, but he sent his final prophet and messenger Muhammad Sallallahu
Sallam in Arabia 1400 years ago, and he's not sending any prophet after him because he's going to
		
00:17:35 --> 00:18:10
			preserve his message. So this is the easiest, and the most digestible thing for the human being is
that there's one God sends prophets sent all the great prophets that we believe in as Muslims and he
sent the final messenger, Muhammad wa sallam and all of them came with the same basic message. So
it's evidence they came from the same school. And that's it. Simple, simple as that. And thank you.
We're out of time. My pleasure. God Almighty, Allah rewards you once again for being with us. We
look forward to having many, many more shows. Thank you, anytime. And that's it. That's all we have.
We just wanted to give you a taste, move out the junk that's in the trunk and deliver the clear
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:53
			message of Islam. Continue to come back here every week to the deen show, to get a free copy of the
translation of the Quran. One 800 662 Islam continue every week we're here with a new show. Also,
check out our radio show, and we'll see you next time, inshallah God Willing until then, peace be
unto you is the lead. One of the beautiful things about our religion of Islam is the emphasis on
direct ritual and prayer to God directly. There is no intermediary, the lights will go on after the
party, and the party will end. It's very simple and very clear. There are no superstitious rituals,
no strange incantations the Time's running out, we might not make it till tomorrow. And this is
		
00:18:53 --> 00:19:31
			something that we need to think about. No speech is better than to do that call people to Allah and
to do the work. No speech is better. No, nothing is better than that. Is it true that if one person
on the law giving you the ability to guide someone, the last permission the creator's permission
that is better than everything in this world, but in the whole world and everything that's in it in
another nation, it's better than the best of wealth, but if we really felt that that he would, we
would not be giving out giving and this is something that we encourage all the MSA all the dowel
organizations, the machines to get this we want to print more we give these to the non listeners for
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:33
			free for free for free Warner Brothers.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:46
			eats comb eats lay everybody sleepy.
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:59
			asked a lot of thinking may own law you see oh law you know
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:05
			All the things I do I turn to you to begin
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:14
			your
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:24
			runs away. Oh Allah guide me
