			What makes a slam unique? There's a lot of things I would pick probably two big ones. One is how
simple and intuitive. Its theology is what we believe in. We only believe in one God. There's no
like multiple gods. There's no like multiple persons in one person, anything that's confusing or not
intuitive, and there's no middlemen. There's nobody that stands between you and your Creator. When
it comes to, you know, asking for help or praying to Him or seeking His guidance on an issue. The
other thing
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			I would say is how specific
		
00:00:45 --> 00:01:26
			Islamic Guidance is on so many different areas of your life. So if you're, you know, you want to
know what to do when it comes to your finances. Islam has very specific guidance for your finances.
If you want to know how you should treat your neighbor Islam has very specific guidance for how you
should treat your neighbor. You want to know how you should divide up your inheritance and leave it
to those who come after you. Islam has very specific guidance for how that should happen. Every sort
of major activity that human beings are usually involved in when it comes to child rearing when it
comes to custody when it comes to marriage and divorce. When it comes to warfare when it comes to
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:33
			politics, anything that you can think of Islam has very, very specific principles and guidance for
those things.
