JazakAllah shake boycotted. Now we have the translation of the carrot being presented by brother Jamal Richards from London United Kingdom. Brother Jamal,
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, Most Merciful.
The hour has come near, and the moon has split into. And if they see a sign, they turn away and say, passed in magic.
And they denied and followed the inclinations. But for every matter is a time of settlement.
And there has already come to them of information that in which there is deterrence, extensive wisdom, but warning does not avail them.
So leave them on Muhammad. The day the caller calls to something forbidden.
Their eyes humbled, they will emerge from the graves as if they were locusts right in
racing ahead towards the color, the disbelievers will say, this is a difficult day
the people of Noah denied before them, and they denied our servant and said a madman and he was repelled.
So he invoked his Lord. Indeed, I am overpowered, so help.
Then we opened the gates of the heaven with rain pouring down and caused the earth to burst with springs. And the waters met for a matter already predestined. And we carried him on a construction of planks and nails,
sailing under observation as reward for he who had been denied,
and we left it as a sign. So is there any who will remember?
And how severe were my punishment and mourning?
And We have certainly made the Quran easy for remembrance. So is there any who will remember?
and art denied? And how severe were my punishment and mourning?
Indeed, We sent upon them a screaming wind on the day of continuous misfortune,
extracting the people as if they were trunks of palm trees uprooted?
And how severe were my punishment and warning?
And We have certainly made the for an easy for remembrance. So is there any who will remember
sammut denied the warning, and said, Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness has the message being sent down upon him from among us. Rather, he is an insolent liar.
Indeed, we are sending the she camel as a trial for them. So watch them and be patient and informed them that the water is shared between them, each day of drink, attended by turn.
But they called their companion and he did and hamstrung her.
And how severe were my punishment and warning?
Indeed, We sent upon them, one shriek, a blast from the sky, and they became like the dried twig fragments of an animal and
And We have certainly made the her an easy for remembrance. So is there any who will remember
the people have not denied the warning. Indeed, We sent upon them a storm of stones, except the family of lots. We save them before dawn.
As favor from us. Thus do We reward he who is grateful.
And he had already warned them of our assault, but they disputed the warning. And they demanded from him his guests, but we obliterated their eyes saying taste my punishment and warning
and they came upon them by morning and abide in punishment.
So taste my punishment and warning.
And We have certainly made the Quran easy for remembrance. So is there any who will remember
and they're certainly came to the people of Pharaoh warning. They denied our signs all of them so we seize them with a seizure of Exalted in Might and Perfect in Ability.
Are your disbelievers better than those former ones? Or have you immunity in the scriptures?
Or do they say we are an assembly supporting each other,
their assembly will be defeated and they will turn their backs in retreats.
But the hour is the appointment for jus punishment an hour is more disastrous and more bitter. Indeed, the criminals are in error and madness.
The day they are dragged into the fire on their faces, it will be said, taste the touch of soccer.
Indeed, all things we created with predestination.
And our command is but one like a glance of the eye. And we have already destroyed your clients. So is there any who will remember
and everything they did is in written records, and every small and great thing is inscribed.
Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and rivers in a seat of honor near a sovereign Perfect in Ability.
JazakAllah brother, Jamal Richards will translate translation

mer respected elders, and my brother and sisters, I welcome all of you with Islamic greetings. Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
my peace, mercy and blessings of Allah subhanho wa Taala of Almighty God beyond all of you.
The topic of this evening's talk is Al Quran should it be read with understanding? The Glorious Quran is the last and final revelation
of Allah subhanho wa Taala of Almighty God which was revealed to the last and final messenger, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him.
The glorious Koran is the most positive book in the world. It is a proclamation to humanity, it is a fountain of mercy and wisdom. It is a guide to the earring, it is a warning to the heatless
and assurance to those in doubt. It's a solace to the suffering and it is a hope to those in despair.
How is it possible to derive all these benefits of the Quran without reading the Quran without understanding the Quran
without pondering over the meaning of the Quran, and without implementing the Quran in your life
Alhamdulillah the Glorious Quran is the most widely read book in the world.
But unfortunately, it is also the book
which is most widely read without understanding
because the majority of the Muslims read the Quran without understanding that the reason the contact
the benefit that the Muslims derived from the Quran, it has decreased the touch of the Muslim to the Quran has declined.
Imagine if a person comes to the Quran
and he goes away empty handed
hearts untouched. Soul unmoved
and the life unchanged.
What a tragic myth fortunatus
Allah says in the Quran inshallah Allah Moran chapter number three was the 110 kung fu Cara
oh he Muslims, he are the best of people who are for mankind.
morona bill Murphy, una una bella because we enjoy what is good. And we forbid what is wrong. And we believe in Allah.
Allah is calling us the Muslims, the kerama the best of people evolved for humankind. And the reason is giving us is because we enjoy what is good and we forbid what is wrong and we believe in Allah.
If the Muslims
read the Quran without understanding, how can we enjoy what is good and forbid what is wrong, and if we do not enjoy what is good, and if we do not forbid what is wrong, we are unfit to be called as Muslims we are unfit to be called as head oma.
So if we want to be called as Hara oma, if we want to be Muslims, we have read the Quran the understanding so that we can enjoy what is good and forbidding what is wrong.
The Arabic word Quran
is derived from the Arabic word cara, which means book. It's also derived from the Arabic word Accra which means to read, which means to recite,
which means to proclaim, how can we proclaim the message of Allah subhanaw taala without understanding the message.
And another title given to Quran is Furqan. That is the criteria to judge right from wrong. We can only judge
between right and wrong if we understand the message of the Quran.
Without understanding the mysteries of Iran, it's not possible that we can use the Quran as the furqan as the criteria to judge between right and wrong.
Let's analyze today.
The various excuses given my as Muslims for not reading the Quran with understanding
the most common excuses.
We do not know Arabic as a language.
Today, the world population is approximately 6 billion.
And about 20 to 25% of the world population are Muslim, about 1.3 to 1.5 billion Muslims are there in the world.
And out of the Muslim population, approximately
15% are Arabs.
And there are very few non Arabs who understand Arabic as language. So amongst the Muslim population, more than 80% of the Muslims, they don't understand Arabic as a language. So, the most common excuse that you Muslims have not to read the current understanding is, we do not know Arabic as a language.
When a human being is born,
he does not know any language, the child
initially learns the mother tongue, so that he can converse with the family members.
Later on,
he may learn the language of the society, so that he could communicate with the people around him.
He may learn the language in which he's educated.
Almost all the human beings, they at least know two or three different languages.
Some know three to five languages,
some are linguist.
But most of the human beings almost all they at least know two to three different languages is indeed a requirement
that we should know the language in which our Creator Allah subhana wa Taala has revealed his last and final message the Glorious Quran, isn't it a must
that the Muslims should learn Arabic as language to understand the Quran.
I know that it is much easier for a person to learn a language during childhood.
But age is never a barrier
to prevent any human being from doing any good work.
And that reminds me of the example of Dr. Morris bukal.
Many of you may be aware that Dr. Morris bukal was a very famous surgeon and scientist who was given the French Academy Award in medicine
and automotive bouquets. He was selected for doing research
on the mummy of naptha.
That is the mummy of the body of Pharaoh, who was there at the time of Moses peace be upon him, which is mentioned in the Bible.
And after he did research
on this mammoth naptha, which was found in the valley of kings,
he being a Christian,
he was aware
of have the background mentioned of Moses peace be upon him in the Bible.
And he was aware
that the pharaoh at the time of Moses peace be upon him when he followed Moses to be a fundamental part in the sea. And when he followed him,
the sea again came back to normal and the Pharaoh had drowned.
But when he went to Saudi Arabia,
there he learned
that the Muslims told him
the Quran already mentions in
chapter number 10, was commanded to that.
Allah says, We shall save the body of the pharaoh as a sign for posterity.
Dr. Morris book L. He was shocked that how does this book
the Glorious Quran 1400 years back says that Almighty God will save the body of Pharaoh as a sign for posterity as a sign for humankind
and is not mentioned the Bible. So that instigated him to read the translation of the Quran.
And after you read the translation of the Quran, he was so much inspired that he wanted to understand the Quran better. So at the age of 50, he learned Arabic as language to understand the Quran better. Imagine a non Muslim, a Christian to understand the Quran better he learns Arabic as language.
And after he does research, he says that the scientific points mentioned in the Quran are important.
conformity with what modern science has discovered. And unfortunately, there are many things in the Bible, which do not conform with modern science.
And after refer the research, he writes the book, the Bible, the Quran and science became very famous.
The point to be noted here is,
imagine a person of the age of 50. Being a non Muslim, being a Christian, to understand the Quran better, he learns Arabic as a language.
So we Muslims, the best excuse we have is that we don't know Arabic as a language.
I do not expect every Muslim to be as enthusiastic as
Dr. Morris vocal
that they'd like to learn Arabic at the age of 50.
But even if a Muslim does not know Arabic as the language, yet he has got no excuse because he can yet read the translation of the Quran and hamdulillah
the Quran has been translated into most of the major languages of the world.
Marana abdulmajeed, everybody says
the Quran is the most untranslatable book in the world.
The language of the Quran is so pure,
it is divine. It is noble, it is unsurpassable it is intelligible.
And that is the reason it makes Quran. The most difficult book to translate. Not only does it makes it the most difficult book to translate, in fact, it is a book which is impossible to translate.
Yet hamdulillah there are many scholars who has spent several years who has spent decades and doing research and have translated the glorious Koran
into most of the major languages of the world.
Even though I agree that no translation is 100% perfect, because a translation is a human handiwork and the Arabic Quran
is the word of Almighty God the Creator. But in spite of that, these translations, at least they let us understand the basic message of the Quran. The basic message of our Creator Allah subhana wa Taala.
We Muslims.
They give excuses
for not in the traditions of Iran, saying we are very busy.
We are very busy in our studies.
We are busy in our profession. We are busy in our business.
Most of us we have spent decades
reading and memorizing volumes of books in schools and colleges, as well as universities just to acquire a degree.
Don't we have the time to read the message of accrete Allah subhanho wa Taala
How much time does it take to read the Quran
our beloved prophet masala Salaam said since I had this intermediate, when he said that anyone who reads the Quran in less than three days, he has not understood the Quran. That means if we read the Quran with concentration, it will minimum take a person three days minimum.
If you read a bit slowly, it may take five days. If you read one, just one part a day it will take you one month read
the degree that we acquire in the colleges and universities.
It may or may not help you in this world.
There are hundreds and 1000s of graduates and post graduates that I know that are jobless
and education you acquire in school colleges and universities if it does not get you closer to Allah subhanho wa Taala if it does not get you closer to your Creator, Almighty God, then this education is useless for the hereafter.
So the education that you get in the colleges and the schools in universities may or may not help you in this world. And if it does not get you closer to your Creator last minute Allah it is useless in the hereafter. But as far as the brand is concerned, Allah says in the Quran
in surah baqarah jack number two was the one into Alif Lam Meem xylitol tavolara Buffy Mata Ki
Alif laam Meem this
is a book of guidance without doubt for those who have Taqwa for those who fear Allah subhanaw taala. That means Allah has given him the promise that this book is a book of guidance.
And it will surely benefit you in this world as well as the hereafter. Allah says in the Quran, in fact, I have Japanese 18 Muslim 54
that this is a book, which mentioned in detail,
many similitudes in which is benefit for humankind.
But men is in most things contentious.
Allah repeats a similar message. And sorry as Omar, Chapter 39, was number 27.
That Allah subhana wa Taala has mentioned in detail, many similar dudes.
So that men may receive admonition.
If you read the Quran, it will surely benefit you in this world, as well as the hereafter. You read the Quran, if you don't know Arabic, read the Quran in the language you understand.
If you understand English, in English, the language you understand the best
if you understand or do read or do if you understand hindi, hindi, if you understand French, read in French, if you understand German, in German, read it in the language you understand, irrespective whether you read the English translation, they will do translation, then the translation, the French translation, or German translation, at least read the translation of the Glorious Quran so that you can understand the message of your Creator.
Allah to give an example.
Suppose a very close friend of yours, who's a gentleman, he comes from Germany, and he spends a couple of weeks with you in Bombay.
He being a German, he can't speak English fluently, but he can converse with you. He spends a couple of weeks in Bombay. And when he goes back to Germany, he writes to you a letter in German
because he can't speak English fluently. He can't write English fluently. So he writes to you a letter in German. Now, when you get that letter in German, you don't understand German.
What would you do?
But natural? Because he's a close friend. You will have that letter translated. You will want to know what did your good friend tell you from Germany? You will have that letter translated.
Don't you want to know?
What is the message? The last and final message given by a creator Allah subhanaw taala you don't have to go and translate the Quran. The Quran Alhamdulillah has already been translated in the major languages of the world.
Many Muslims
they think
that the Quran
was only revealed for the Muslims.
And the Quran is not meant for the non Muslims.
Allah says in the Quran in surah Ibrahim, chapter number 14 was number one Alif Lam rah.
This is a book which Allah has revealed. So that Tao may guide is the humankind from the depths of darkness to light. Allah Sterling, that this book the Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him so that he could guide the humankind from the depths of darkness to light.
Allah says in the Quran in surah Ibrahim, Chapter 14, verse 52, that here is the message for mankind. Let them take wanting their from let them know there is one God let the men of understanding Take heed.
Quran says in Surah Baqarah chapter number two was number 85. Ramadan is the month in which the Quran was revealed as a guide for humankind as a criteria to judge right from wrong.
The Quran is a book which was revealed in the month of Ramadan as a guide for the whole of humankind, not only for the Muslims or for the Arabs, but for the whole of humankind as a criteria to judge right from wrong. Allah says in Surah zomer chapter number 39. Muslim 41 will reveal the message to the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him so that thou may instruct the humankind the Quran does not say that the Quran was revealed to Prophet mama so that he may instruct only the Muslims or the Arabs so that he may instruct the whole of humankind.
Yet there are many Muslims
who do not want to share the Quran with the non Muslims thinking what we'll do is not
Muslims understand the Quran.
The non Muslims, the Muslims discover what will they understand the Quran thinking that they are very superior. Do you know this Quran was revealed 1400 years ago.
At a time it was revealed in Arabia at a time which was known as yarmulke helia the days of ignorance.
At that time, before the Quran was revealed, the Arabs were known as the most ignorant people of the world. And imagine this Quran
has changed the lives of these Arabs and made them the torchbearers of the world.
So when the Quran could change those people 1400 years ago, why can't the Quran change the non Muslims of this time?
These are not the days of ignorance
50 deserts that was known as jamahiriya the days of ignorance.
Allah says in the Quran in surah ambia chapter number 21 was the 107 woman or Sinatra Ella Rahmatullah alameen, that we have sent the knot, but at the mercy of the whole of humankind, at the mercy to all the creatures at the mercy to all the world's Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him was not sent only for the Muslims or the Arabs. The last and final messenger was sent for the whole of humankind.
The Quran says chapter number 34, Rama, Salah, Illa capital NASS bashira, one zero, we extend the knot but as a universal messenger, giving glad tiding and warning them against sin.
But most of the human beings yet do not know.
The Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him was not sent only for the Muslims or the Arabs, he was sent for the whole of humankind.
We Muslims
we unfortunately want to sit on the Quran like a cobra, neither do we read it, neither do we want the others to read it.
And many of the Muslims
they caught the Quran saying that Quran cannot be given to the non Muslim because Allah says in the Quran, and the quote
sort of waqia chap number 56 worse than the 77 to 80 which says
that this is the Quran
which is kept in a tablet well preserved.
Who none shall touch except those who are pure.
It is from the Lord of the worlds
and many Muslims say that see the Quran says none shall touch the Quran, except those of your and the non Muslims can achieve their nap are the unclean that is the reason these non Muslims they cannot touch the Quran.
If we read the Newsela Quran, Bible these verses revealed,
we come to know
that
the mushriks and the co founder of mata belaid allegation that this Quran nos Bella are the words of the Satan, the words of Satan. Allah reveals this
that none can touch the Arabic word use this Tabby mcloon that means book were preserved
Tabby McLoone this Kitab maknoon does not refer to this glorious Koran.
This book Quran in Arabic is called as the most of
what the Quran is referring to, if it costs reference.
Also Hebrews chapter five, verse number 2122, which says that Allah has kept the Quran in a tablet well preserved in rahimafrooz. So this Quran which is being referred is referred to the low hammer fools, the tablet well preserved, the book well preserved, it's not talking about this Quran.
Because if it was this Quran, and if the Arabic word use Mata Hari, that it means that only body cleanliness then any non Muslim and easily go to the marketplace and buy a copy of the Quran 450 rupees for 200 rupees for $4 for $5 and the Quran will be proved wrong.
The Mujahideen word used does not refer only to body cleanliness.
It refers to a person's peor
and heart and mind in soul person who's
Unless referring to the angels, that none will be able to touch the Quran in the tablet well preserved lahoma fools, except the angels, trying to give a reply to the allegation of the machines of Makkah, that this Quran
was not the words of the Satan.
So this was the Quran does not indicate
that a person should be your in body, if it's good, it must have a hamdulillah. But it's not a must.
And furthermore,
even if it was a requirement, imagine, even if it was the requirement, if a person's ship can be removed from his life, even if you consider this as a small mistake, to touch the Koran without Voodoo yet removing the shelf, which is the biggest thing in Islam.
To do a small mistake to remove the biggest sin in Islam, it is yet a very good bargain.
But the scholars of the city they say this was does not refer and does not indicate that a person should be in Voodoo
to touch the Quran, but being in Voodoo is good. It is mastaba hamdulillah but not a must.
There are many people, many Muslims who tell me okay, because I can
give the Quran to the non Muslim, but only give the English translation don't give the Arabic text or give the Hindi translation that will do translation I've got no problem with someone only gives the translation of the Quran. But I personally prefer giving the Arabic text along with the translation Why? Because the translation is the work of a human being.
And no human being is perfect.
As I mentioned earlier, that no translation is perfect. And if there is a mistake in the translation, it will not be attributed to Allah subhanaw taala because if we check it up with the Arabic text, besides the translation, we can easily verify that if there is a mistake in the translation into the work of the human being and of Allah subhanaw taala. So I personally prefer
giving along with the translation, the Arabic text, so that if there is a mistake, Allah subhanaw taala
is not responsible. It is a responsibility of the translator.
And furthermore, if Allah hold me responsible, I will be in good company. I will be in the company of the Beloved Prophet masala Salam. Why? Because if you read the theme of the Prophet masala salam,
he dictated letters to non Muslim kings, in which he dictated
verse of the Quran. It was a Savas. He dictated letters to non Muslim kings, in which he dictated was of the Quran. He sent letters to negative Abyssinia to Emperor heraclius, Emperor of Persia, King of Yemen, king of Egypt. Many of these kings Alhamdulillah accepted Islam. But some of them David told the letter, some of them even trampled it beneath the feet. Imagine the verses of the Quran dictated by the prophet.
They were tuned by the things and some of them even trample it beneath the feet.
And one such letter
is available in the Kentucky Museum in Turkey, in which the Prophet had dictated the vasana Salalah Moran, chap number three was 64 He says, cool. Yeah, look it up, say
Tallulah Kalimantan Sawa imbiah anabaena. Come, come to come and terms as us and you, which is the first term Allah Illallah that we worship none but Allah when under Shaka yo that we associate the partners with him while I A ba, ba, ba, ba urban Manila that we erect not among ourselves, lots and pages other than Allah.
Allah, if then they turn back.
Felicia do say bear witness, we are now Muslim, that we are Muslims bobbing ultra last minute Allah This was of the Quran was dictated to the non Muslim kings by the Beloved Prophet.
It is yet available in the museum, the Coptic Museum in Turkey.
And I want to ask you the question, today, there are about 14 million Arabs who are Coptic Christians, who are Christians.
Since generations, I must mean the question which translation of
The Quran Will you give to the 14 million Coptic Arab Christians?
Do you have to translate the Arabic Quran into Arabic again, you will have to give the original text
to these Christian Arabs.
Once in Arabic and the language, Arabic gives the mother tongue, which translation will give will give the nation will give the English translation you have to give the original column of Allah subhanaw taala in Arabic That is the reason I personally prefer along with the translation, the origin Arabic text and the Quran was revealed for the whole of humankind. And the last and final messenger Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him was sent as a messenger to the whole of humankind.
There are many Muslims who say
that the Quran is meant to be read with understanding only by the alums only by the scholars.
a layman Muslim should not try to understand the Quran. The Quran is meant to be read with understanding only by the alums only by the scholars.
I started my talk by quoting a verse of the Quran
which is also recited by the car in the beginning of the program,
which occurs in Surah kamari chapter number 54, no less than four times. So retromer chapter 54 was number 17 was number 22. Was the mortality and was number 41. laka. Yes, sir nella coronella Vickery, farmaco, decayed. We have made the Quran easy for you to understand and memorize, then which of you shall not receive admonition?
Allah subhanaw taala our Creator says that we have made the Quran easy for you to understand, then which of you shall not receive admonition? Allah says in the Quran in several places in several verses, including Surah Baqarah. Chapter number two was number 242. La La Quinta de Lune, so that they will understand.
Allah says in Surah chapter number 15, verse number one Alif Lam bra tilka toccata. While Khurana been that Alif Lam Ra. These are the verses of the Quran that make things clear to you.
So Allah subhanaw taala, saying that this Quran, we have made it easy for you to understand.
Allah says so that they understand. Allah says they have revealed the verse of the Quran, so that it will make things clear to you. So who will you obey? Who will you follow those Muslims who say that the Quran was only meant for the scholars to understand it? Or should we follow the guidance of the Creator, Allah subhanaw taala that it was made easy for the human beings to understand if you don't understand certain things? Allah says in the Quran, in Surah, Chapter 16, verse 43, and so ambia chapter number 21, verse number seven, Allah says, that, if you do not know as the person who possesses the message, as the person who possesses the knowledge, that if you do not know anything,
if you do not possess a message, as the person who's knowledgeable,
for example, if the Quran speaks about science, who will go and ask,
will you as a cobbler, will you as the Baba, you will ask a scientist, because a scientist is an expert in the field of science, a scientist is an alum in the field of science. Similarly, if the Quran
speaks about medicine, who will you ask? But naturally ask a doctor? Because the doctor is an alum. He's an expert in the field of medicine. Similarly, if you want to know something about newsletter, Quran,
who will you ask? You will ask an alum who has gone to dollar Olam, maybe for seven years for 10 years, a person who is expert about the Newsela Quran so depending upon what field you want to know, you have to ask an expert in that field.
So the Quran says that while reading the Quran, if you have certain problems, you can surely very well ask a person who's an expert in that field.
And that reminds me of the example of the keepmoat there were a group of Arabs
followed the advice given in the Quran in chapter 16, verse 43, and for chapter number 20, verse number seven. We says, first Allah Allah Zicree.
In quantum law palemoon, if you don't know, as the person who possesses the knowledge, so these group of Arabs, they collected all the material in the Quran and the Hadith, which speaks about embryology, and they presented it to Professor Dr. Keith Moore, who at that time, in the early 80s 1980s, he was one of the persons who was authority in the field of embryology and he was the head of the department of anatomy in the inner city of Toronto
to the present in the translation of the various verses of the Quran of the kidmore
and they asked him that what are your comments? So, after going through the translation, the way the Vasa Fernanda did, he said that most of the information given in the Quran is in perfect conformity with more than embryology. But there are a few verses
which I cannot say that they are correct.
Neither can I say they are wrong, because I myself do not know about it.
And two such verses, were the first two verses of the Quran to be revealed from Surah Surah. Allah, chapter number 96 was the one in two which says ekra Bismillah. Because Allah, Allah Allah in Santa mean Allah, read, recite and proclaim in the name of the Lord who created who created the human beings from something which clings allegedly exceptions. The Arabic word Allah
means something which cleans it even means a lot of blood. It also means a leech like substance. So Professor Keith Moore said, I do not know whether the embryo in the initial stages looks like a leech or not. So he went in his laboratory, and under a very powerful microscope, he observed the early stages of the embryo and compare it with a photograph of a leech. And he was astonished at the striking resemblance.
And later on,
when about 80 questions were asked to him, he said, at that time, in the early 1980s, that if you would have asked these questions to me, at two years ago,
I would not be able to answer more than 50% because embryology is a new branch of medicine which has developed
and
he is the author of a very famous book, the developing human, and whatever additional material he acquired
from the Quran, Hadith, he incorporated it. In his third edition, the developing human being, and he got an award for the best medical book written by a single author in that year.
And when I was in medical college,
in the 1980s, in the first year of medicine, in the subject embryology, if we wanted to score high marks, we used to refer to the developing human, the book written by Professor Dr. Keith Moore, if we wanted just passing marks, wish to refer to the book written by Dr. In the very thing,
you know, just pass, if you want to score high marks, then we have to read the book developing human by Professor Keith Moore. And this book, later on, was translated into several languages of the world.
And Professor Keith Moore said,
I have got
no objection
in agreeing that this Quran, it has to be the word of the great Almighty God and Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, he has to be the Messenger of God Almighty.
Whenever we purchase an equipment,
along with equipment, we get an instruction manual.
For example,
when we purchase a DVD player,
we get an instruction manual,
which tells us
how the DVD player should be operated.
If you want to play the DVD, put the disc and press the play button. If you want to skip, press the skip button. If you want to stop, press the stop button. Don't drop it from a height it will get damaged. Don't immerse it in more tightly get spoiled.
All the details are given in the instruction manual. Whenever we buy an equipment,
it has an instruction manual and more complicated the machine the more requirement of the instruction manual.
If you allow me to call the human beings a machine, I would say it is the most complicated machine on the face of this earth.
Don't you think it requires an instruction manual
The instruction manual for the human beings
it is a Glorious Quran. The Glorious Quran is the last and final instruction manual for the human being, how a human being should lead his or her life is given the Quran
Imagine if you buy an equipment
and if it is in the language you understand. And we know today, Japan is very advanced
most of the electronic equipment
they come from Japan, but when we get the instruction manual,
we get it in the language we understand there may be a Japanese instruction manual, but along with it
is the English translation. If you buy in India, you also get the Hindi translation.
So when you want to understand the equipment,
whether it's a DVD player
whether it's a washing machine, you read the instruction manual in the language you understand, don't you want to read the instruction manual of the human being? What has our Creator Allah subhanho wa Taala
what as we mentioned in the last and final instruction manual of the human being the Glorious Quran
we don't have to get it translated, it's already available.
Previously,
when automobiles were introduced, the first time in India people did not know how to drive.
So, whenever you purchase the car, the company along with the car, the company also gave you a driver
once another famous navab a very rich man
he buys a car. So along with the car, the company also provides
the driver
one in the morning the name of
the rich multi millionaire he does is diver I want to take my Begum cyber, I want to take my wife for shopping please get the car ready
replies no upside the car is not in working condition. Now observe is very angry. Put the car back in working condition immediately. So diverses to put the car back in working condition I require 10 litres of milk
20 kgs of pure honey 30 kgs of pure ghee and 40 kgs of rice that also basmati rice so now upside
the rich multi millionaire he gives the driver 10 litres of milk
20 kgs of pure honey
30 kgs of pure ghee and 40 kgs of rice that also basmati rice top quality driver gives it to his wife and within a few minutes the car is in working condition.
I'm asked me a question today if your driver tells you that the put the car in working condition he requires 10 litres of milk 20 kgs of pure honey 30 kgs of pure ghee and 40 kgs of basmati rice, what will you do?
What will you do?
Will you give it to him?
What will you do?
You will take him out of the job.
Even though you're not a mechanic, you know how to drive the car, you know very well that a car runs on gas and petrol. It does not run on milk, ghee, rice, you know very well, even though you're not a mechanic, you know the basics, how a car functions. Similarly today, if you know the basic message of our Creator Allah subhana wa Taala if you know what our Creator Almighty God has mentioned in his last and final instruction manual, the Quran, no one will take you for a ride.
You will understand your deen much easier.
No one will make a fool out of you.
There are some people who tell me
that with a socket. Suppose if you're driving a car,
and if you have a temporary license,
temporary license is a license in India temporary license. And if you have an accident,
the police will give you a small fine if you have a permanent license. And if you have an accident, the police will give you a bigger file. Therefore, if we don't read the front, and if you don't understand the Quran, and if you make any thing, God will punish you less if you understand the Quran and then if you commit a sin, then God will give you double punishment. You know very good logic but why
To understand the Quran,
you know,
behave like a person who have a temporary license and enjoy life. No less punishment. I told his brother, for sake of argument, I agree with you that a person who has a temporary license a person who has a kucha license, if he has an accident, maybe
the police will find him with 1000 rupees or $1,000.
And if a person who has a permanent license, if he has an accident, maybe the police will find him double 2000 rupees or $2,000. Okay, I agree with you. But the point to be noted is that if a person has a permanent license in one year, the chances he'll have an accident is maybe one but a person who has a temporary license who has not learned driving Well, the chances he'll have an accident one day, maybe 50. So the end of the year, the person was permanent life and pay the final 1000 rupees $1,000 and a person who has a temporary license, he pays a fine of $50,000. A person who has a temporary license pay $1,000. A person who has a permanent license pays $2,000 for a fee has an
accident once a year. At the end of the year, he pays a fine of $2,000 and a person who has a temporary license, maybe he left 50 accidents in a year. At the end of the year. He pays a fine of $50,000 or 50,000 rupees.
There are some Muslims who go to the other extreme who come and access and they say that reading the Quran in Arabic It is not useful.
Allah says in the Quran in Surah Nisa, chapter number four was the 171 lithography the newcom do not commit accesses in your religion.
To say that a person does not benefit by reading only Arabic is wrong. There are various verse in the Quran, there are various Hadith, which talk about the blessings that a person gets even for reading Arabic.
Allah says in the Quran, and kaboodle chapter 29 verse number 45, that we have revealed the verse of the Quran
and recite what we have revealed to you
with Luma electrometer Kitab. That recite of what we have revealed to you of the Quran.
And a beloved Prophet Musa wa sallam said,
that even tirmidhi Hadith number 2910,
for the Beloved Prophet said,
that anyone who decides one letter of the word of Allah, the Book of Allah, he gets one sabab one has not, and that is multiplied
tenfold and Allah is not one letter Alif is a letter,
llama the letter
is a letter. So you get 1010 1037. For example, if you decide Alif laam Meem, you get 1010 1037. And this is confirmed, there's no doubt about it, but the amount of mistakes we make throughout the day, toward the life, the amount of things we committed, are these 10 1010 sahab sufficient to transport regenda.
If besides reading in Arabic,
if
we understand
in the language we know what Allah has commanded, and if we implement the message of Allah subhanaw taala inshallah, you will get multiple times.
And Allah says in the Quran, in Surah Juma chapter number 62, was, number five, the parable of those
who were given the obligations of the Mosaic Law, talking about the Jews.
But they did not fulfill their obligations is the example of donkey
which carries tons of books, but the understanding not
Allah subhanaw taala he chose the Jews and it delivered the message to them, but they did not do the duty. They did not follow the instructions of Allah subhanho wa Taala.
So Allah says, they are like donkeys,
which carry tons of books, but they understand it not. And Allah says, If you do not do your job, if you do not follow the instructions of Allah subhanaw taala Allah says in Surah Mohamad chapter number 47 was number 13. Allah says yes, stop there common get some more like numb solocom and if you do not do your job, Allah will substitute in a place and other people so my life and they will not be like you.
We will
Muslims, we very often do mccrane especially in Ramadan, finish the Quran once, twice, five times 10 times hamdulillah.
But most of us Muslims
even though we don't have an Arabic, we only recite the Arabic Quran twice, thrice I tell them instead of reciting only in Arabic the Quran twice and if you don't send Arabic recite in Arabic once and the second time read the translation in the language you understand the best in English. Read the English translation of the Quran if you know or do read the Quran, if you know Hindi read the Hindi translation of the Quran. If you know German, read the German darkness the Quran, if you know French, read the French translations of Quran. Read the translation of the Quran in the language to understand the best it will get you more benefit.
So that you can implement on the guidance of Allah subhanaw taala
our beloved prophet masala Salaam said
it's already mentioned hypnagogia chapter 1600. Number 2199. Allah be pleased with him. He said that the Prophet said that oh Buddha, Malawi piece of
it is better that you learn one verse of the Quran, rather than pray 100 rakaats or Salah.
The Prophet said,
if one verse of the book of Allah, if you learn, if you understand
it is far superior than reading 100 rakaat salah and every record Salah minimum that you have to recite a Surah Fatiha minimum seven versus 700 record minimum versus you recite a 700 verses of Iran. So what is Hadith?
If you learn and understand one verse of the Quran and implemented it is far superior.
Then reciting 700 verses of the Quran
men we as the Muslims
that why was the grand reveal.
Many of us say
it was revealed for Quran honey
you know when we have openings are many of us job to recite the Quran.
When we buy a new house, housewarming ceremony, we decided upon when someone dies, they received the Quran. I do not know if any of us in the Quran, know say Hadith in which the prophet or any of the sidebars they decided the Quran for the opening for many of the house or the shop or when someone died.
And they get a group of people
and they decided to run fast, you know, maybe 30 people
each one decided images. So I tell them
that if you really want to do for uncanny, instead of that, do Quran Femi.
Do it on the location, no problem. Do it once a month, do it once a week do it daily, when you call 20 people instead of reciting Arabic modules along with Arabic even read the translation of that Jews which have recited himself 30 people called 60 people
read half Jews in Arabic have just the translation which you understand the best
half Quran phemi understand the Quran and send the message inshallah inshallah, it will get to multiple time masala
I would like to give an example
that there was a person
the Indian who goes to France to get a bachelor's degree.
But when he goes to France, the language of instruction was French and this Indian, he did not know French. So, he's to attend the classes religiously regularly, whenever is to attend, he used to get a p
p for present full year he attends a class
but the instruction and French he doesn't understand it. After one year, he appeared for the examination. The question paper is in French, but yet he gets the p p is not for pass P is for present. But just by being present, do you think he will pass in the examination? He does not understand a word maybe because he knows English.
Like how many of us we know the script or we can decide the Quran.
So he can read some of the friends without understanding because the script of English and French is the same.
Do you think will pass in the examination he gets the P the P is for present it is not for pass.
That is the reason it's very important that we read the Quran with understanding
Muslims with respect to the Quran hamdulillah but many of us they go beyond the limit they get so much respect that they forget for what purpose the Quran was revealed
you know we keep the Quran on the topmost shelf
Alhamdulillah they keep it so much on top that difficult to reach and the Quran catches dust
in the Quran is a book of guidance. It's a guide book. No suppose if you're studying the guide book is normally at a shelf which is reachable
you know it's kept at a shelf which you can reach the easiest you won't keep it on top very difficult to take a stool to get it down.
So Quran is a book we should be reformed every day. It should be handy
and many of us Muslims you know we tie the Quran in a pure silk cloth
and then we tie a knot on it.
Suppose if you want to read the Quran, you start thinking okay five minutes to open the Quran
five minutes again to tie the Quran 10 minutes
the thought of you opening the Quran and again tying it will be a deterrent and if you have 10 minutes this minute every hole number one image
if you have 10 minutes time, you know to open the Quran roll 10 minutes a better note in the Quran.
See, we have to respect the Quran but the main respect is in the heart.
I'm not against keeping the Quran on top Don't get me wrong.
But she did that it is accessible
it's easily available for guidance.
You know many of us Muslims. before touching the Quran, we scrutinize 1000 things as though it's an RD x bomb. Ron very shoes can attach the Quran
Can I read the Quran while standing? Can I read it in the office
all these things that prevent you from reading the Quran, we scrutinize the Quran hazards and IB x bomb going to explode. The Quran
is a book of guidance.
So that very that many of us Indians object to know the Arabs Mashallah the way they treat the Quran, they give respect.
But as a guide, it's available. We Muslims keep it on top shelf, you know, in India, it's catching dust
and rainy will be fine people when they are finished and made the report is different because there is no we have to have that frame of mind. And then we have to see 10 things we can be in shoes, we can't stand and we have to have a head over your head etc etc.
See, many things are good, but don't make life so difficult that the main purpose of the Quran is for guidance is defeated.
And very often if you go to the Gulf countries, you know many of the Arabs when they come for Salah a few minutes before you find them taking the Quran in reading
in India, rarely will you find that
and suppose someone is reading the first row and someone takes the Quran in the second row. There'll be personal object. How can you read the Quran in the second row? The Bacchus says in the Quran haram helaas.
And if you have to sit in the mosque
and suppose at your home or in the mosque, if by mistake if you happen to read the Quran, while the backface in Qibla helaas you will get fatwa Haram.
You know you can read the Quran, with your back facing the Qibla. back facing the Kaaba. I've been to Harlem several times in Makkah, several times. You know, they have the star Miranda in his classes, you know, and the student is sitting in rows.
Many of the backs fails the Quran of the other student was carrying around in the hand and many of them the teacher is facing the Kaaba and the students back facing the Kaaba.
So where do they get this from? Which was the Quran which are these I don't know.
So we have to love the Quran. We have to respect
but we have to know that the main reason the Quran was revealed was for hidayah was for guidance.
Once there was the Indian Imam, very good carry. He went to Saudi Arabia and because he was famous, it was a great time. So that was the carry little a mom, a mom, you lead the Salah. So the Indian Imam,
he goes and he leaves the Salafi Maghreb
he decides and he finishes the Salah, and many finishes a Salah. One se smiles at him.
So then he asks
that what is the problem? Was there any problem in making
Iraq.
Saudi told him no karate was wonderful. I was only wondering that when you recited surah Yusuf, you put use overlay Salam in the well. But before you complete the Salah, why didn't you get him out of the well.
This anecdote would be understood only by those people who read the grant understanding. Those who don't need the grant understand he will not be able to understand that anecdote.
That's how he was telling him
if you need for use of it speaks about the story of Islam. That how he was betrayed by his brothers, and his brothers put them in the well. And little caravan comes, and Isabella Salamis got out of the well. So the southie tells him that you decided very well, but in your Salah, you put yourself in a sir I'm in the well, but at least before ending this, Elijah bought him out of the well.
That means we start
the surah from anywhere, and we ended anywhere without realizing have we completed the meaning or not?
we Muslims, we have several excuses
for not reading the parameter understanding.
And we always give excuses for not reading.
We have the time to read books, volumes, memorize them. But the Glorious Quran, which is the last and final revelation, Allah subhanaw taala. Unfortunately, we don't take our time to read the message of our Creator Allah subhanho wa Taala.
Allah says in the Quran, in Surah, Mohammed chapter 47 was number 24. Allah says, Allah de buena Quran, do they not ponder over the Quran?
Or are the hearts locked up?
Allah saying that don't you ponder over the verse of the Quran or is locked up? Allah says in Surah Baqarah
chapter number two
was the 159.
That Allah subhanaw taala when he makes the signs clear,
after it has been revealed to you, and made the guidance clear,
and if you can feel them, Alice curses on you. Allah says, Those who can see the signs after it's made clear to you, and the guidance after it is given to you allies, curses on such people.
Allah says in Surah Furqan chapter number 25 was the machete
masala salam, he says that these are my people
who took the Quran for foolish nonsense. Imagine the Beloved Prophet masala Salim saying that these are my people who took the Quran for foolish nonsense.
But in the context of the verse is talking about
but unfortunately today
we have Muslims who yet take the Quran for foolish nonsense no still.
The Quran was revealed as the guidance for the whole of humanity.
And when we read the Quran,
there are two types of reading.
One is called Asakura Quran and the other is the de bourree Quran.
The Quran is reading the Quran and understanding the meaning superficially
which can be very well done by reading the translation of the Quran as well as the Arabic
The other one is pondering over the meaning of the Quran.
Thinking about the meaning of the Quran, this if you read the translation, it can be done to a certain level, but if you know Arabic as a language, it is the best.
Takapuna Quran can be done much better by knowing Arabic as a language. A person can say that he isn't a soccer fan. He has read the Quran, but no one can say that he has finished doing Quran he has finished pondering all the verses of the Quran. Because the Quran is beautiful.
It is unlike any other book that you read once it's finished. If it's a very good book you read twice, thrice That's it, Quran even if you read 1000 times, the 1000 and first time you read, you get more guidance.
every verse on the Quran, it has different angles to look at.
The words of the Quran are fantastic
that there is a no human being can say that I have finished pondering over the worst of the front. You can do
better the Buddha Quran. The
more you read, the more you ponder, the more you understand, inshallah, the more we'll implement.
Every Muslim home should have a copy of the Quran. And if they don't understand Arabic, they should have the translation of the Quran in the language to understand the best.
This Quran is the best gift you can give to any human being, irrespective whether he's a Muslim or non Muslim, irrespective of the person or giving the gift to his rich or poor.
Whether it's Annika, or whether it's a housewarming, so many, the best gift you can give. The most invaluable gift is the copy of security scanner.
And if the person doesn't understand Arabic, give the translation of the Glorious Quran in the language understand the best.
The best gift you can give to your child as the Quran.
Many of us Muslims, we send our children
to learn how to recite the Quran. Some of them may have heard of Ron but very few non Arabs.
They make the children and they educate the children in the language of Arabic so that they can understand the Quran directly very few. The best gift you can give to the child is
different than
most of us, including myself. We were unfortunate that our parents
did not think it important that
we should learn Arabic other language
when we were children don't make that same mistake. See to it that you teach your children Arabic as a language.
It is the best gift you can give to your children.
It is the best degree you can give. Believe me all the other degrees of colleges universities, it may or may not help him in this world.
And now Hara if it does not get him closer to Allah Spano tala, it is useless, but if you give the gift of the Quran, if you give the gift of the language of Arabic
insha Allah, because our beloved prophet masala Sallam said that when a person dies,
three things
yet, get them savaria
one is what he has spent in the way of Allah subhanaw taala
number two, the knowledge
that is paid in the way of Allah subhanaw taala and number three, pious children who pray for him.
The best gift you can give
to your children is the gift of the Quran. It is a guide for full life
and should make it a habit
that we read the Quran daily.
Whichever time you feel is the best.
Let's daily have a family gathering
mother and father along with the children and recite depending upon the time available
maybe to Roku three Roku Arabic along with the translation to understand the best
if every day you read the Quran with understanding it will change your life
and also tell all the Muslim businessmen
that make it compulsory for your employees to read the Quran daily,
and Islamic foundation Mashallah we have more than 400 employees in all organizations that hamdulillah it's compulsory
every day when they come the first thing when they find the card or they put the thumb thumbprint you know the new machine thumbprint and the attendance chip takes that in is okay this is so and so, he came to the office at 10 o'clock. The first thing he has to do is read at least for 15 minutes,
at least one ruku of the Quran along with the translation in the language understand the best
some people will think 15 minutes every day,
six days a week
12 months in a year 400 employees
calculate lakhs of rupees gone down the drain every month.
Believe me, it will benefit you.
When your employees when they read the Quran, along with the translation, they will work better for you. They will learn honesty they will come on the straight path
irrespective of employee Muslim or non Muslim he will get higher in our organization. It's compulsory that you read the Quran along with translation everyday
compulsory
request
that all the businessman here
we have our businesses and employees seated that you implement it in your business space also
Shall we benefit you?
And there are various different ways you can read the Quran. From first page to last page.
See to the completed at times you may want to read it by the index. You want to read what is the Quran speak about woman, what is the Quran speak about heaven. What is the Quran speak about angels, topic wise all you open the Quran and did whatever comes the various but see to it that you daily read the Quran
and even regularly reading from cover to cover is very important.
And since the talk is in English,
there are Mashallah
more than 50 different English translations of the Quran more than 50.
And in our organization, we have more than 50 different languages in which the Quran has been translated much more than that in our organization, we have more than 50 different languages.
In the English translation, the one that I recommend best is Abdullah Yusuf Ali.
Amongst all the translations they have read,
I feel this is the most comprehensive
and
he took approximately 40 years to write the translation.
And though his English is a bit archaic, with a biblical he The Tao, but more closer to Arabic.
A normal English when you say you, it's the same in Arabic
you know for you for female is different for male is different, singular, different dulal different, plural is different six types, and, you know all in English one you whether it's a male, single,
a female, single, male, dual, a female, dual, male, multiple female, male all sexes same shortcut. So, this archaic English is more closer, but it may be difficult for the modern people to understand, but there are other people who are made it easy, but overall, I feel
the commentary that He has given and the footnotes and the index topic wise.
I recommend for normalcy novela for Muslim, this is one of the good English translations available. The other one is si International, which has been translated a few years back by three American divorced sisters.
And the English is more simple.
And it is more modern.
The other translation is the Noble Quran
by Pakistani lolly and Dr. Mohsen Khan, but this I would not recommend it to be given to non Muslims Muslim sign because the too many brackets in the footnotes they have many hundreds you know, ohare Muslim, which is good for the Muslims, with so many brackets, that you fail to realize, who is saying that Allah or the person who's translated it, so you give footnotes, no problem. But if you have too many brackets, you fail to realize is this message from the translator or from Allah subhanaw taala. So that the reason it is good for references? Bukhari Muslim say Howdy. But for non Muslim, I personally don't advise you to give that.
The other for translation, which is good is by Maulana Abdul Majid, everybody is good for comparative religion. He references from the Bible references from the scriptures.
it's ever been four volumes.
The other one is Mama.
Mama Mama duck tall. You're the britisher
even that translation is good, but it doesn't have any commentary. The other one good is my Muhammad Asad. Mama doesn't this translation is good. He quotes very often some actually.
And he gives root words of Arabic, whatever, be careful, because I'm actually the logical concede, but sometimes it deviate from this I had to have to be careful.
I normally prefer translations which are directly done from Arabic into that language.
So English translation translated directly from Arabic to English are the best. There are other translations which translate from Arabic to ODU. And then English, like molana Moody,
daughter, grandma Shams pizza, they are good, but the chances of error is more
because someone turns from Arabic to do then from or to to English.
And that's what happened with Muramoto the translation and the second edition. The second passage as the first second sorry, is far better.
So this was just
a few translations which I named the other by DB Edwin DB doing the translation more of American English. And there are several other translations. Before and my talk.
I like to give the message which Allah says in the Quran in surah hatia chapter
59 verse number 21 Allah says that had this Quran be revealed on the mountain, it will surely falling down in utter ruin. That means if the Quran would have been revealed on a mountain, and if the mountain had feelings, the mountain would have tumbled down
and would have come down to pieces but to as Muslims, it makes no difference Why? Because you don't understand it.
Allah says that if the mountain The mountain is a sign of power, or something which is hard like rock, if the Quran would have been revealed on a mountain, the mountain would have fallen down to utter ruin, but make no difference to us.
We Muslims
we have read the front is understanding
and we Muslims they feed back into the history the Muslims live on top of the world today. We Muslims on the receiving end Why? The reason previously we were on top of the world was because we were close to Iran and say howdy and today we are on the receiving end is because we have gone far away from a religious scriptures far away from Quran and Sunnah. If we get back close to the Quran and Sunnah inshallah we Muslims would again become the torchbearer of the world. I would like to end my speech with the Hadith of the Prophet of masala Salaam, mentioned Sai Bukhari
Hadith number five zero to seven.
of Buhari in the old edition,
one number 600 number 545. Where this man will not be booted him said that our beloved Prophet mamasan said
Heroku when tala mahalo Khurana
that best amongst you are those who learn the Quran and teach it to the others.

We have three mics arranged in this open ground to four gents. One close to me in front of the gen section for the gents. The second question might for the gents is in the rear section of the gents. We have the third mic in the ladies section in front of the ladies seating for the ladies to put forward the questions on
non Muslims would be given first preference to put forward their questions. Volunteers at the mics are requested to quietly ensure that the same is implemented firmly and kindly.
Kindly state your name and profession before putting forward your question to Dr. Zakir. May we have the first question on the mic number one
Dr. Jackie your name and profession please first minutes is my name. I am professional by spiritual healer.
I'm doing or a * and psychic surgery surgery without cut. This is a exactly the spiritual science. We can say. Medical Science is a science of medicine. And this spiritual science is a science of human body
It's a body, mind and soul. What we say is the root of our soul and the science of a god power. Once the person developed the spiritual power by sadhana, whatever the prayer, spiritual prayer or whatever the namaz and whatever we are doing, and if you develop the spiritual ability to heal others, this is the difference between an ordinary human being and a super human being what we say, and the science of this energy, invisible energy. Now, there is a two type of things which exists in human being, one is visible, physical body, and another is a solid body rule. So now science of the rule, solid body is 99%. And science of the body is 1%. Today, what we are practicing is the medical
science is the science of medicine, and not the science of human body, and purpose of any religion is to keep human body healthy throughout the life and achieve the final goal of the life. So, understand the science of invisible power. So got power? Sir, can we have your question? Without a background? So that just you can have your background? And then your question, if we follow the path of religion, any religion or Quran, we can keep ourselves healthy throughout the life, if you don't get any disease in the body, without a question that he's a spiritual healer. And he heals things without cut, without using a knife, and treats patients etc. Talking about spirituality, healing of
the body healing of the soul. Basically, whether as far as spiritual healing is concerned, there is something like true spiritual healing. And something which is like a deceit, the world of difference in that
we do have many spiritual healing in public,
done by missionaries. And I've attended some of the programs of Christian missionaries, they get a person and they get him on the stage, and the person is lame, and he starts walking, the person is blind, he starts seeing, and we find many.
And I don't know whether you've seen as in many documentaries,
which have tried to expose how they do it,
how they do it. And in our Islamic Research Foundation, are the research organization on Islam and comparative religion, and return killing materials dealing with such things. There are many documentaries, we show that how they do it,
how they make a fool of the public.
For example,
the show a person that the person leaves sitting in the audience,
the healer goes and picks up the stick in the name of Jesus start running and the person starts running. But the person who started running is the person who's sitting on the right, the person who was named was sitting on the left.
What we realize that all these are pre planned.
You know, the pre plan, what I tell them, that really if you're a spiritual healer, you come to the hospital and I'm a medical doctor.
I tell them come to my hospital, direct ready made.
If you treat, the full family will convert.
So if you are a spiritual healer,
and if you need the truth, we require hundreds of people like you, we don't want to have all these government hospitals, you know, narrow hospitals and hospital game hospital will employ you
what we have to realize that isn't the truth or not.
Yes, there are something like spiritual
like for example, the Quran says that the verses of the Quran can be used for healing.
But what if we realize in Islam,
the person who really was Shafi It is He wills
if anyone say that he it is nonsense. It is almighty God who is by the throat doctor.
But doing this surgery without knife, finder laser technology, but surely you aren't using laser technology, or using laser technology.
For men who say that this spiritual thing you're talking about, yes, I being a medical doctor, coming from medical background, if it was true, we would have learned in medical first year that there is this method so we would prefer having more such people then spending five and a half years there. So what I'm trying to say that most of these to what people talk about spiritual healing, it is more of a big fast it is time to make fast buck Fast Money. But but but but there's Almighty God Mashallah. There are words of the Quran which can get peace for you in your mind
which can treat you there are certain diseases
which
Science cannot understand, beyond science understanding, there may be but what we see today, mostly in in the spiritual healing sessions involves gathering. According to me, it is nothing but a gimmick. And all these people who heal, I would like to invite you, brother, less tomorrow go to fine hospital together, fine, and you healed the people. Better have you then are 50 doctors.
Healing generally what we say is a healing. Healing is not for the curing the disease, what occur in the body. But if you treat your mind and soul body, you will never get the disease throughout the lives of preventive care. What we do day to day prayer and namaz and whatever we do it properly, we will never get a health problem. And if you understand the science behind it, it is a science of GOD Power and how to use GOD Power in our day to day life, what is religion of GOD Power with human body. So if you understand that science totally, which is 99% of human health, medical science has not understood the mind and soul science because it's invested in science, it is a science of body
only, and it is 1% of total knowledge. 99% knowledge is just mind and soul knowledge, which is a secret knowledge lost from India. And today, what is the science student, I give up my religion, Jainism to going to temple and other thing for 20 years after learning the science. And when I came to know in 92, about this spiritual healing about Reiki and pranic healing, which came from the foreign, these foreign people are teaching our own science in India, the science which was there in 5000 years in India, Vedic science, Jainism Muslim, whatever, that is lost because Western science has taken over the charge of our human body and human health. And this science was discovered to
kill viruses and bacteria only
chemical poison, what are the questions that I am not a speech time? So we have got your question.
You're saying that if you know this spiritual healing, you will never get the disease of the body I disagree with you. Yes, if you do practice, there may be on certain occasions where there are less chances that you may acquire diseases. But if you say that you will never get diseases, I disagree with you.
I disagree with you. Whatever you realize that I do know that there are certain for example, if you spoke about namaz I can give a talk on the scientific benefits of Salah
I gave a talk of one hour on the scientific benefits of Salah for example, the best part of Salah is the suit, so very to suit you, you put the highest part of your body the fight on the lowest part of the ground. And when we do that, what we find that there is more supply of the blood go into the brain that makes the Healthy Brain the less chances of having chilled veins. That is the disease of the skin of the face. When you're doing food. There is drainage of the bronchial tree, so less chances of having bronchiectasis. Now when we breathe normally, when we breathe normally, one third of the air in the lung remains it's called as rested really, when you breathe in the food, the
abdominal viscera, the press against the diaphragm and the diaphragm it exits out the residual a so you breathe in more fresh air. So because you breathe in more fresh air, there's less risk to delay the chances your lung will be healthy, far superior, less chances of having lung diseases. Furthermore, there's more increased venous return of the abdominal viscera, there's less chances of having piles when you get up from the position of fish that when you stand up, there is more stress on the calf muscles and the calf muscles are going to medical science they are known as peripheral heart. It pumps up blood to the lower part of the body. I can go on and on giving references how
death benefit.
But But we Muslims, we don't pray Salah all these benefits. We pray because we think Allah subhanaw taala
these medical benefits aside dishes desert, our main dish biryani is because we thank Allah and we worship Him.
This these medical benefits may inspire a non Muslim, he may come closer to Islam. It will keep you healthy, but mainly it is to thank Allah subhanaw taala
because you worship Him. It is not because we want to exercise. These are extra benefits, side dishes. But even I've read about other religious about Vedic and all. Some I do agree, do have some benefits. But to say that if you do this, you will never get any disease. I disagree with it. And it has not been proven by science at all. And as for the non Muslims, if they'd like to ask any questions, even outside the topic, if he or she is a non Muslim, you're most welcome to ask questions even outside the topic.
Maybe of the next question from
The brother in the re Salam aleikum, sir
My name is sk ronzoni deputy engineer, government of Maharashtra water supplied department. My non Islamic oho many questions are why the religions are created in the world? I the number of religions in the world
is make a sentence leka Hey, is dvk
peace, the solution? Human in de mera Ismay awry Hey, peace, jelly knowledge are
nxr brothers the question that Why are there so many religions his first question and after that he made a comment that piece, the solution humanity the tagline of peace, TV for peace, you require knowledge and wisdom
and then to agree with you, as far as the first part of the question is concerned that Why are there so many religions? If you realize that Almighty God, our Creator, Allah subhanaw taala has sent only one religion.
Allah says in the Quran, in Surah, Al imraan. Chapter number three was the 19. In the nine the line Islam, the only religion, the only way of life acceptable in the sight of God is submitting a will to God.
The Almighty God only sent on one religion, and all the messengers that came right from Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, peace be upon them all. All of them taught nothing but submitting a will to Almighty God. Now in Arabic, when a person submits his will to Almighty God, he is called as a Muslim.
And the religion of Islam comes from the root word salam, which means peace. It's also derived from the Arabic word film, which means to submit your will, to Almighty God. So Islam in short means be acquired by submitting a will to Almighty God. So Almighty God our Creator, God, only one religion, but by the passage of time, the scriptures kept on getting changed. There was interpolation, there was fabrication, and whenever the scriptures kept on changing, as Allah says in the Quran, in Surah Baqarah, chapter number two was number 79. For lunula, Xena, una caja de su Miko Luna hominin de la liga,
la la, la la la macatawa de him, for me max a boon to those who write the book with their own hands, and then say this is from Allah to traffic with it for a miserable price, war to those of what they write for, to those for what they earn. Now, whenever Almighty God sent a revelation, center instruction manual, in the passage of time, the instruction manual, the revelation of Almighty God changed. Now when the message got corrupted, Almighty God sent a new messenger and a new message. This kept on happening until Almighty God sent the last and final messenger Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. And last and final message. That is the Glorious Quran. All the messenger that came
previously, our beloved Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam said, that Almighty God 724,000 messengers on the face of the earth, by name only 25 was mentioned the Quran, the others? We don't know. Maybe someone asked me that, can you consider you coming from a Hindu background? If you ask me? Can you consider Rama the Messenger of God? Or can you consider Shri Krishna to be the Messenger of God? I say cynefin name is not mentioned in the Quran or the Hadith. I don't know. Maybe he was, maybe he was not. I cannot say for sure. But the point to be noted, all the messengers that came before Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, they were only sent for those people and that time, so
even if ROM was the Messenger of God, even if Christian was the Messenger of God, he was sent for those people and that time today, all the human beings irrespective whether they live in India, or in America, or Saudi Arabia, or Canada, or UK or any part of the world, they should follow the last and final messenger prophet masala Salaam and last and final message that the glorious cannon
and elastic in a promise in for a hitter, chapter number 15 verse number nine that we have revealed the Quran and we shall guide from corruption so Almighty God sent only one religion that is submitting your will to God. Islam means peace acquired by submitting a will to God. And you said peace can be acquired by knowledge and wisdom. Yes, knowledge for the best. You
Almighty God our Creator, who's the most wise, Al Hakim, it is Allah Subhan Allah Almighty God, the best piece can be given to you is by following the knowledge and guidance of our Creator, Allah subhanaw taala. Hope that answers the question. Thank you.
Yes, sister. Good evening, sir. My name is Manju Singh. I would like to ask you one question. First of all that I would like to tell you something and I've seen your videos, that is Hinduism similarities with Islam. So, I would like to ask you that, what is the difference if any non Muslim will read with understand of Vedas or he or she should read with understand of Al Quran so it is necessary that all the non Muslims should go through that Al Quran. This was asked a very good question. That what is the importance of reading the VEDA with understanding like how I give a talk on Al Quran should be better than understanding and the sister has seen my video cassette, the DVD
on similarities between Islam and Hinduism and sister towards the end of my talk, I told and I requested the Government of India. I said that you should teach Sanskrit as a language. Unfortunately, Sanskrit has become a dead language. Only a handful of people know I requested the Government of India that teach Sanskrit so that the Hindus read the VEDA. And when they read the way the they will come closer to Almighty God.
When you read the scriptures, then the scripture says, If you read the Punisher, it is mentioned in tendo Punisher chapter number six. section number two was number one, a comedian God is only one without a second. It's mentioned it's with us is our Punisher. Chapter number six was number nine. Not Jessica sage. Jonathan is a diva of that God. He has got no superior he has got no parents. Almighty God has got no father. He has got no mother. It's mentioned further sister Punisher chapter number four verse number 19. Natasha Timothy of that God, there is no prathima prathima and Sanskrit means image, photograph, picture, painting, sculpture idol, according to synthesiser, Upanishad
chapter number four was number nine it says Natasha Timothy of that God, there is no image there is no picture. There is no painting, there is no portrait, there is no sculpture, there is no statue, there is no idol. Same thing with chapter number 33 none
of that God there is no image. So I'm asking the sister that if you read your Hindu Scripture with understanding, not only chanting the verses, inshallah you will become closer to God and inshallah you will submit your will to God.
And if you read the Indian scriptures, it's mentioned into scripture, I can give hundreds of references. It talks about the coming of the last and final messenger, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. If you read the publisher Parana para 303 a day three shlokas, five to eight, it speaks about masala salam, it's mentioned in para para three and the three are the three shlokas 10 to 27 about the coming of masala Salam is mentioned atharvaveda in
in Book number 20 hymn number 127 verse number one to 14. He's prophesied in atharvaveda book number 20 hint number 21 verse number six, and only references I can keep on giving in which is mentioned about mama salatu salam he's mentioned as Amma Amma means one who praises and he's mentioned several places. If you read hooter, check, mantra number 1500. It speaks about Amma mama salatu salam, if you read Indra chapter number two was the 152 It speaks about ama if you read chapter 31 verse 19. It speaks about Emma is also prophesized at Nara, Shanta na means man Shanta MySpace was the Nara Sansa means a person who's praiseworthy? If you translate Arabic it is mumble. So Mombasa la Salam
is mentioned my name is Nora Sansa in several places in breakaways book number one, him number 30 in verse number three in three ways, book number one, him number 18 verse number nine in three ways book number two him number three was number two, in Greek myth book number seven him number two in graduate, Chapter 20, verse number 37 yoruba chapter number 20, verse number 57, Nigeria by job number 21, verse number 31, Nigeria by chapter number 28, was the 19 I can go on quoting only references from the Hindu scriptures about the coming of mama Salah Salam. So sister if you understand Sanskrit, and if you read the fanciest scriptures if you're just stupid understand that
you should submit your will only to God. He has got no image you have no portrayed and have to follow the last and final messenger Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him
Hold on to the question, sister. Thank you.
Next question from any brother, if a non Muslim Brothers here will allow for the next mic they summon any non Muslim brother. Yeah.
will allow on the next mic. Yes, brother, I'm asking on the behalf of non Muslim brother. Okay, we'll allow that. So he's like an atheist, he doesn't believe in God. And what he said that we don't believe in Quran and you should not believe in God. Why in this 21st century, you're believing in Almighty God, this in modern era, the science acknowledges that much higher than Why should you believe in God, you should not believe in God, he should do what is better for human beings. Thank you, brother as a question on behalf of a friend with an atheist that I believe in God in this age of science and technology, you know, be a good human being. Brother, the first thing I'll do is I'll
congratulate your friend.
Why? Because most of the human beings unfortunately, that ingrained belief. He's a Hindu, with a father, the Hindu is a Christian, my father is a Christian, some people are Muslim, because the father is a Muslim, this friend of yours atheist is thinking, he may be coming from a religious background, but he may not agree that the God which his parents worship,
they are worth being called as God. So the reason I congratulate him is because he has said, the first part of the Islamic Shahada La Ilaha, there is no God.
The only thing I have to do is prove to Allah but Allah, which I shall do, inshallah. So this person, half my job is done to the other non Muslim. First, I have to prove to him that God is worshipping a false god, and then prove to me about to Allah subhanaw taala. This non Muslim is an atheist, half my job is done. He's already said, the first part of the Islamic Shahada, Laila, there is no God, the only thing you have to do is elaborate Allah which I shall do inshallah. Now, since you said your friend believes in science and technology, and the world is advancing, I will ask the atheist a question
that suppose and equipment is born in front of him, who no one in the world has ever seen? And if the question is asked to your friend, that who will be the first person who will be able to tell you the mechanism of his equipment, who no one in the world has seen?
Who is the first person
and the reply he will give,
he may say that the manufacturer or he may say the inventor, or he may say the Creator, or he may say the maker, whatever he says it will be somewhat similar is a creator, maker, manufacturer, inventor, whatever it is, it will be similar. And the second person is whoever the Creator, inventor manufacturer told he'll be the second person, but the first person would be the Creator, the manufacturer, the inventor, keep designs as the back of your mind, and ask him the next question that how did our universe come into existence. So, he will tell you that you notice science advanced and we have come to know that our universe was once a primary nebula. Then there was a big bang,
there was a secondary separation, because you have Astro galaxies, the stars, the sun, the moon, and the earth on which we live.
When you come to know this, so he will tell you, it was in 1973. When a group of scientists they described the Big Bang and the creation of the universe. So you tell him what you came to know hardly about 3536 years back is already mentioned the Quran 1400 years ago and ambia chapter number 21 was the motto by says Avila Mira la Vina Kaku do not the unbeliever See, and the samovar de Cannes rock concert number, that the heavens and the earth are joined together and we close them asunder? Who could have mentioned this in the Quran 14 years ago. So the atheists may say, maybe it was a fluke.
Don't argue, continue asking the next question. What is the shape of the earth? So he will tell you previously, the human beings thought that the earth on which we live is flat. It was in 1579 when Sir Francis Drake, when he sailed around the earth, He proved that the earth is spherical.
You came to know in 1579, hardly 400 years back. Quran mentioned 14 years ago. It's mentioned the Quran in surah nazjatar chapter number 79 was the mortality what are the Basilicata haha and thereafter, we have made the earth x shape.
The haha one of its meanings can expand and the earth has an expanse. The other meaning is derived from the Arabic word which means an egg and it does not refer to a normal egg. And we know today that the world is not completely round like a ball. It is certain from the pole.
It is geophysical in shape. And the Arabic word the haha doesn't refer to a nominal leg. It specifically refers to the egg of an ostrich. And if you analyze the shape of an egg of an ostrich that too is just a helical shape. Imagine the Quran speaks about the god
spherical shape of the earth 1400 years ago, you ask a friend who could have mentioned this in the Quran, he will say, oh maybe your Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him he was intelligent man. Now you continue, you ask him, the light of the moon is its own light or reflected light. So he will tell you that previously we human beings thought that the light of the moon is its own light. Recently in science 100 years back 200 years back 200 years back, we came to know that the light of the moon is not its own light, it's the reflected light. What you came to know recently is mentioned the Quran 14 years ago instead of farrakhan chap number 25 was number 61. The Quran says the light of the sun
has its own light. And the light of the moon is described as no need or * meaning borrowed light or reflection of light. So who could have mentioned that the light of the moon is not its own light but effected light 14 years ago, he may give a pause and say okay, maybe your profit was very, very intelligent. No, no, continue.
I learned in school that the sun, though it revolved in the solar system in the galaxy. It did not rotate about its own axis is that what is mentioned the furano that what I learned in school, we are the 1982 1982 27 years back, I had learned that the sun was stationary. But Quran says in Surah ambia chapter number 21 was number 33 homology calaca levana Hara It is Allah was created the night and the day, what stumps overcomer the sun and the moon
is behind each one traveling in orbit with its own motion that everybody has bone means it describes the motion of a moving body. The Koran says the sun and the moon. Besides revolving, it even rotates about its own axis. And today science has come to know that the sun takes approximately 25 days to complete one rotation. Who could have mentioned this in the Quran? 14 years back, which became known recently, hardly 20 years back 30 years back
is your pause. Don't wait for the answer. You can continue.
Quran speaks about the sky. Almighty God has made a predicted ceiling without it. Life cannot exist on the face of the earth infrared ambia chapter number 21 was number 32. Quran speaks about what a cycle in several places in the Quran. In Surah zomer chapter 39 verse number 21. And for the room chapter number 30 verse 24. So here's our chapter 15 verse 22. And for a moment on chapter 20, verse number 18, and chapter 24, verse number 40, and three or chapter number seven, verse 57. Seven replaces the Quran speaks about the word cycle in great detail. Who would have mentioned this 14 years back? heliopause don't keep on continuing. peran speaks about biology
that we have created every living in from water. Quran speaks about botany that we have created every plant in pairs to and to in sexes, male or female, and SATA chapter 20 verse number 53. Quran speaks about that the animals have been killed from water. So the new chapter 24 verse number 45, Quran speaks about the human medium he came from water. So therefore can chapter 25 verse number 54. The Quran speaks about genetics, that it is a male fluid which is responsible for determining the * of the child. And so in chapter number 53, verse number 4546 and 40 Amma chapter number 75, verse number 30 3039. The Quran speaks about embryology. The Quran speaks about geology. The Quran
speaks about oceanology you can give a talk for us together after every scientific sign mentioned in the Quran. I see a friend who could have mentioned this in the Quran for 10 years back. The only reply can give you is the creator, the manufacturer, the maker, the inventor, this creator, this manufacturer, this inventor, we Muslim call of Allah, we call him God.
So today, science is not eliminating God, it is eliminating models of God La ilaha illAllah that the reason a famous philosopher by the name of Francis Bacon said little knowledge of science makes you an atheist, but in depth knowledge of science brings you closer to Almighty God. So you can ask your friend to see my video I said is the Quran God's word and Quran modern science in which there are various other proofs, talking about the existence of Allah subhanaw taala Hope that answers the question.
We would request non Muslim brothers and sisters if you're curious, why this book Al Quran, it should be read.
Compared to so many other readings you may have which may be more engrossing, more interesting, more thrilling for you feel free. This is your opportunity to ask. We have Dr. Zakir Naik on this side and this is your session. I am here to help you
you clarify and help you get a proper answer, inshallah maybe of the next question from the sister side salaam aleikum, Rado, any non Muslim sister, this question is on behalf of a non Muslim friend named dipti. She's working in a call center. Excuse me. If any non Muslim brothers or sisters here who has some reservations on coming in front on the mic, we would allow them to put a question through your friend or if there are questions slips available on the aisles with our volunteers. Feel free to write your questions I would require the volunteers to kindly have slips presented and shown in your hands so they can get the slips from you put your question on the slip have it sent
down to me on the stage and inshallah the more interesting one from them, we will put it forward to Dr. Zakat, but is more preferable you ask on the mic. So that's not that I am playing around with the slip or juggling with them and putting the more easy questions in front. Yes, sister. The whole question is, is it compulsory for me to accept Islam to read the Quran? Can I read the Quran without accepting Islam? is a good question that is it compulsory for me to accept Islam to read the Quran? Or can I read the Quran without accepting Islam? As I mentioned my talk that the Quran was revealed as a guidance to the whole of humanity. It's not necessary that you have to be a Muslim to read the
Quran.
But inshallah, if you read the Quran with an open mind and unbiased mind and an open heart, inshallah inshallah, after in the Quran, inshallah she'll accept Islam,
that there is a use of Islam.
In an interview, he said, that it is good that I read the Quran before meeting the Muslims.
He read the Quran, accept Islam, if you have met the Muslim before in the Quran, maybe you will not accept Islam. With the Quran is the best example. It is the guidance for the whole of humanity. And your friend can very well read the translation of the Quran in the language to understand the best. And if you have any query, she's most welcome to ask on the email, or to a [email protected] hope that question
may clarify for those who didn't know brother Yusuf Islam is the same person. Cat Stevens, the very famous one of the leading pop singers, British pop singers. Yes, sister. This is a question from a student Aparna she's in the audience today. And she would like know, why is Friday given more importance?
The question that why is Friday given more importance.
And a blog Prophet said it is like a weekly eat
that weekly, like how the Christians they have Sunday, the Jews had Saturday. So for the Muslim to be different, that there isn't the Prophet chose Friday. And there are various the with mentioned the importance, even a Friday, the Saudis mentioning that the Noah's Ark came and it got the land when there was a flood on a Friday and various benefits but in the Islamic context, it is the weekly important day in which we have the congregation of salah and the congregation Salah it is more important normally we pray five times a day. But once a week, we offer the Juma Salah, which is a bigger gathering. It's like a weekly eat and it's compulsory that we should pray in the gathering.
And in that Juma Salah like we had today in the afternoon, the mom gives a fatwa, he gives a speech and gives guidance, the weekly guidance to the Muslims, what is the requirement he may talk about the local affairs, he may talk about things which are important and convey the message. So Friday basically the weekly, although weekly, mainly, of the Muslims hope that's the question.
Yes, brother.
What do you mean, sir? My name is Rohit renessa. Basically, I'm Hindu. And I just recently converted to Islam. And not only because
I'm in love with a Muslim girl, not only because of that, problems and all those things, because I accept Islam from my bottom of heart. And I tell you, frankly, I don't know about Arabic I don't know about or do from the very initially. And I don't know about the Sanskrit also because I am from the Hindu background. Now I want to learn about Islam, not only because
I am going to be married a Muslim girl, and why the controversies are there so much in the nature that people are creating. Not God is creating that controversy and not God is not
Giving the message to people that do all those if a non Muslim, marry a Hindu, Muslim girl, and if a non Muslim, Hindu, marry a Muslim girl, so why the controversies are there? And if I accept Islam, then there is no problem and their family also so why there there must be a lot of controversies. Please explain me without a question that hunger relationship or Islam decently and you're the love of the Muslim government that was not the main reason except some of the bottom of the heart. He says he doesn't understand Arabic He doesn't know Sanskrit, whether it's not compulsory. There is you know Arabic to go to Ghana, it's not compulsory, but at present I am translating English Arabic.
But as I said, it's not compulsory for a person to know Arabic as a language to go to Jana, I said if you know Arabic you can understand the Quran the best. If you don't know Arabic, read the Quran in the language you understand the best if you know English, read the English translation of the Quran. If you know Hindi, read the introduction of the Quran. What you'll have to do is minimum what is required for your Salah.
Salah one of the important Pillars of Islam. What is the word for Salah that much at least you should memorize? Because when you worship Allah subhanaw taala you have to say in the original word, if you translate a translation may be wrong. So besides this, knowing is not compulsory, but read the translation of the Quran in the language you understand the best as far as the main question is concerned that why this controversy? You have accepted Islam. So what's the controversy? As far as the Muslims are concerned? There's no controversy. Why I'm not telling you about the Muslim controversy. I'm telling you about the Hindu Hindu controversy. Why? Why I'm saying because the
Quran says in Surah Baqarah chapter number two was number 21. It says that do not marry an idol worshipper until he believes
a believing man, even if he's a bondsman, even if he's a slave, he is far better than idol worshipper, even if he allows you. And the same is vice versa for the girl and for the boy. The reason is that when if you have a vehicle, and one tires of the bicycle, and the other of the truck, how is the vehicle run, but natural all the tires should be similar and, but natural, any good pious girl would want that the husband also goes to Janna,
go to Paradise. So she has found the way to paradise that's acquire peace by submitting a will to Almighty God. That's what she may have requested you and that there is an accepted Islam. As far as the Hindus are concerned, you have to show them a video asset.
similarities between Islam and Hinduism. What I tell them
people talk about interfaith, I tell them, at least agree to the non Muslims.
You know, I don't believe interfaith dialogue that Islam is the same religion as Hinduism. As Christianity. All I say, I don't agree with that. I being a sort of compact religion, I know the differences, what I tell them, at least agree that one book is 100%, the Word of God, the kitchen will say, I don't mind agreeing that Bible 100% the Word of God, then you will say I don't mind believing without me the Word of God, the Muslim will say, I don't mind agreeing that Quran is the word of God. So I tell them, that whatever is common in all the scriptures, let us agree to follow 100% What is different, what is conductivity we can discuss tomorrow? At least what is comment
letters are good for 100% and when we read the scriptures, all the scriptures say that there is only one God.
All the Scriptures say Almighty God has got no images, he has got no idea, you have got no statue. So let us all agree to believe in worship one God who has got no image has got no idea. All the scriptures, whether the Vedas, whether the Bible or the Quran, they say that the last and final messengers, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him.
Even if read the Bible, Jesus Christ peace be upon him said it's mentioned the gospel of john chapter number 15 verse number 12 to 14 Yes guys, peace be upon him said, I have many things to say and to he but he cannot bear them now. For him in the spirit of truth shall come. He shall guide you into all truth. He shall not speak of himself, all that here shall speak. He shall show you things to come. Now here. Jesus Christ peace be upon him is telling that I have many things to say unto you, but you cannot grasp my message. He when the spiritual truth shall come, he said, I don't also talking about Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. The scriptures of all the major world religions,
Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, all of them say there's one God. You have to worship Him alone. And the last and final messengers, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. Save all the religious people read the script.
inshallah this conflict would be solved, and all of them would acquire peace by submitting their will to Almighty God Hope that answers the question.
Yes, any non Muslim brother on the mic?
Any sister, Islam Allah, this is on behalf of our non Muslim sister. Her question is, there are certain verses in the Hindu scriptures, which speak of monotheism, whereas there are some which speak of the opposite. So her question is,
to quote those verses which are contradicting to monotheism, which is asked a very good question that there are verses in the Hindu scriptures which speak about monotheism which I quoted, but there are verses which speak exactly the opposite about many gods. So why don't I quote that, as I mentioned, that the most highest in authority amongst all the scriptures, it is a weight.
And the weight basically speaks about monotheism, there are other scriptures,
other scriptures, which are lower down in authority, which do speak about pantheism. We do speak about polytheism. But as a logic, we are if there's a contradiction, we follow the higher thing. And what I mentioned in my formula, I said what is different we'll discuss tomorrow. So even if there is a verse of polytheism, there is no word for polytheism in the Quran.
So that goes out, we are talking about that which is common, and logically, how can an almighty god contradict?
How can Almighty God say in one page, there's one God, other place there are many gods, that means there's a contradiction and if there is a contradiction cannot be the Word of God.
So then it is a Hindu to decide that how can they follow a scripture which has got contradiction?
Quran says in Surah Nisa, chapter four was a do for la casa de Barun. Quran, Allah panna meaning the gorilla loves you to fix 11 Coffee rock, do they not consider the Quran with care? Has it been from anyone besides Allah? There have been many contradictions, there have been many mistakes. So how can a word of God a contradiction? So if there are contradictions, you have to reject that scripture?
It's easy. And if you follow my formula, I'm taking only that which is common, I can give a longest speech talking about differences in Islam and Hinduism. But I have not come here to bring the differences I am come here to get the similarities because Almighty God says in the Quran, how to speak with other people in Surah embrun chapter 364 days, Tallulah Kalamata and Saba imbiah have come to come in terms as well as a new which is the first term Allah in the law that we worship man but Allah will under Sheikha, you know that we associate the partners with him, voila, he's a ba, ba, ba, ba, ba ba and when Allah that we elect not among ourselves, lots and paid other than Allah
finds our low if then they turn back Felicia do say a bear witness, we are no Muslim moon that we are Muslim is boring, I will call last minute Allah. So this is a formula shown in the Quran, how to speak with different types of people that come to common terms, differences we can discuss tomorrow. Today, we come to common terms and let us agree to follow what is common. So I'm picking up those verses which are matching with the Quran. If there is a contradiction, I reject that scripture. I don't consider to be the Word of God, but because the Hindus consider to be a word of God, I'm quoting from the Scripture. Hope nuns has a question sister.
Yes, brother. Good morning, Mr. Jackson. Hi, my name is blockchain wish karma. And I have a question.
bakrid is very, very, very near this time. And a Muslim has believed that Turkey on the occasion of bhakri that sacrifice the goats buffaloes and cows and all that, and according to the Islam, insomnia and humanity is very important and every I should DPT and kind on animals and human being and all that then if they believe in this then why they give the sacrifice of goats cows and buffaloes on the occasion of bhakri whether this whether it is in favor of humanity our humanity or in Santa Rosa very good question. That why are we sacrificing goat on bhakri? If not, can we sacrifice
any animals any dynamic sacrifice good if the noble creed
their sacrifices the case? Matthew the question that myth of no book read if you sacrifice animals allowed, no.
Question. Why do we have non wage correct? No, no, I'm not getting what you're saying. Your main question is why do you have non wage Why do you have meat
Actually, I want to say
Handle case no other occasion is
on the occasion of bhakti. Allah says in the Quran in surah, chapter number 22, that the blood and the meat does not go to Allah, it is your piety which goes to Allah. So unlike other religions, in other regions, they sacrifice the sacrifice of God and keep it in the altar in the name of it. And who is God Almighty.
In Islam, when we sacrifice What do we do one third, compulsory minimum, we have to give to the poor people. One third, we have to give to the relatives and friends. One third you can keep for yourself. So maximum you can keep is one third for yourself. If you want to give full inch it also can give. So when we are sacrificing, what are we doing, we are benefiting the humankind.
We are giving them food to eat. Now giving food to eat is good or bad weather
giving food
to the poor people to eat? Is it good or bad?
in humanity, is that good or bad? So therefore Islam is a religion of humanity. Now you may ask the question, what about killing animals? is good for humanity? But what about animals?
In short, a Muslim can be a very good Muslim, even by being a pure vegetarian. It's not compulsory in Islam, that it should have non waste. But since Almighty God has given us permission to have non vege Why should we not have gone which Allah says in the Quran, and for him Isaiah, chapter number five was number one, each of the four footed animal which has been made lawful for you. Allah says in Surah nalsap number 16 verse number five, that the cattle has been made for you so that you benefit from them and of the meat you can eat the same message repeated and phenomenon chapter number 23 was number 21. That in the catalyst, instructive sign, from the belly of you drink milk
and have the meat you eat. So since Almighty God has given us permission, why should we not have it?
Now, coming to the logical aspect today, science tells us that in non which food in flesh food is rich in vitamins,
and it is only food, which has got complete protein, our human body, there are total 23 amino acids required by the human body, out of which eight are not synthesized in the body, it has to be given from the external side, there is no vegetarian food, which gives you all the eight amino acids. It is a flesh food, the non waste food, which gives you all data miner assets. Furthermore, if you analyze the set of teeth, of the herbivorous animal, cow, goat, sheep that were flesh that have teeth, the only vegetables they can have flesh, if we analyze the set of teeth of the carnivores, Animal, Tiger, leopard, Lion, never pointed set of teeth. They have got a carnivorous set of teeth,
they have current set of teeth, they only have flesh food, they can't have vegetables,
if you will, from the middle, and we see a set of teeth, we have got pointed teeth, as well as flat teeth, we have got to only wear a set of teeth. If Almighty God wanted us to have only vegetables while he was appointed for what?
To have the flesh food. Furthermore, the digestive system of the herbivorous animal, cow goat sheep can only digest vegetables, they can't digest flesh food. The digestive system of the carnivores animal, Tiger, leopard lion can only digest flesh food, they can't digest vegetables, but the dices system of the human being has got small intestine and understand we can digest vegetable as well as fresh food. If Almighty God wanted us to have only vegetables, why did he give our diocese return? We can digest both.
Furthermore, there is a misconception that Hindus should not have known which it's misconception.
If you read the Hindu scriptures, it's mentioned Manu Smithy. chap, number five was some authority that Almighty God created some animals to eat and some to be eaten. If you eat the animals that have been created to be eaten, you're not doing the same. It's mentioned Manu Smithy chap, number five, verse number 31. That Almighty God has created some animal for sacrifice. So if you kill the sacrificing animal, you're not doing a sin. It mentioned Manu Smithy, chapter number five, verse number 40. That killing in sacrifice is not a sin.
There are various references in the Hindu scripture and the Vedas, that the sage and sons they are non which they will add beef.
If you read Mahabharata nauseous and para, chapter number 88. You know the story of the bundles, no bundles, five brothers, delta is better Yudhishthira he asked Bheeshma that what should we give in yagoona in puja so that our ancestors
We'll be satisfied.
So beach my replies that if you give her then subs and vegetables of ancestors will be satisfied for one month.
If you give fish for two months, if you give meat for three months, is to give her rabbit for four months. If you give God for five months, if you give bacon for six months, if we give birds for seven months, if you give deer eight months and the menu continues, if you give buffalo for 11 months, if you give a cow, our ancestors will be satisfied for one full year.
And if you want your ancestors to be satisfied in exhaustively give red meat of God or a rhinoceros, who says that
Bheeshma to use the full menu of their vegetables, fish, rabbit, goat, everything is in Buffalo cow. So even in Hindu scriptures, eating non veggie is permitted. It is many of the Hindus because they were being influenced by other philosophies of Enza, they started practicing it. And this people who follow me that non violence, not killing any living creature, if any human being
can lead a life without killing living creatures and for it, what they say killing animals is a big sin because the life killing life is prohibited. Today science advance and we have come to know that even the plants have got life. So by eating vegetables are killing life also. But the logic of saying no, no, we understand that the plants have got life, but the plants can feel pain. Therefore killing a plant is a lesson as compared to killing animals.
For sake of argument agree.
Today, science tells us that the human ear can hear frequencies between 20 cycles per second to 20,000 cycles per second. Anything below and above we can hear
today science tells us that even the plant cries, but the human ear cannot hear. So there was a farmer in USA who had equipment which converted the cry of the plant to the human ear, and he's to know that that required water
somewhere is okay. Okay, fine. I agree that the plant can feel pain, but you know, it has about two or three sentences less. Therefore killing a plant is a lesson as compared to killing animal which I got five senses. For sake of argument, I agree that plants were two senses less as compared to the animal. I'm asking you a question that suppose your brother, God forbid, if he's born deaf and dumb.
And when he grows up, someone comes and kills him. So will you go into the judge me Lord, give the murderer less punishment because my brother he was deaf and dumb. Will you say that? You will tell the judge give him a bigger punishment. My brother was monsoon he could not he could not speak. So in Islam, it does not work like that two senses more to senses this. Allah says in the Quran in surah baqarah chapter two verse number 168 eat of the good thing were provided for you what is good, what is tired you can have
And furthermore, I personally have no problem. If the non Muslim don't want to have non which I've got no problem personally, only when they tell me it's a sin. Or you tell me it's against humanity I give the reply. Personally, if the non Muslims continue having visited good for me, if all the non Muslims start having non wage when the price of mutton and beef will go high was never no problem.
This is a question for non Muslim brother. My name is Sophia and his name is Ankit snarly come here one question which is divided to art. He was about to become a Muslim. He took a step back. He told that as a Hindu, Muslim also have a cast like you are divided into Shia Buri, Sunni, Giamatti LED. And he have a second question that he can go to the graves. And he can ask from them as they are the mediator between him and Allah. Without the question that one of his Hindu friend was about to accept Islam took a step back, thinking that even Islam there are * like they have in Hinduism. In Islam. They have got sect, Shia Sunni, the mother Islamic Islami la de
whether you read the Quran, there are no Shia Sunni in the Quran. There's no Shia Sunni, there's no the mother Islami there's no Allah didn't know.
What is the Quran say? Quran says in Surah imraan chapter number three was the 103 what the theme will be oblige me Allah to hold the rope of Allah strongly and be not divided. The rope of Allah is the rule
If Quran we have to hold to the glorious Koran and the authentic hadith of mama Salah Salaam and be not divided, and it clearly mentioned the Quran in surah Anam chapter number six was number 159. where Allah says, He says the profit, that profit if anyone makes division six in the region of Islam, you have nothing to do with him. Allah will look after the face on the Day of Judgment. So making sects in Islam is haram. It is prohibited.
What was a beloved prophet? Or the Shia or the Sunni? What was he a beloved prophet masala Salam you as a Muslim. that the reason when I spoke about the master key of Solomon chapter three verse 64, he says Allah, Allah Kalamata
Allah, Allah, Allah, Masha, Masha, ALLAH hafiz Abaddon, Abaddon, Alibaba, Manila, find double o for colusa to be a non Muslim woman, that same email witness that we are Muslims by having a will to Allah. So Muslim is the person who submits the will to Allah subhanaw taala. So tell your friend in Islam, there is no caste system. There is no set. We have to be Muslim. Muslim means someone who submits his will to Almighty God.
And anyone who submits the will to Almighty God, he is called as a Muslim.
And if you have to ask Allah, Allah says in Surah Fateha, chapter number one was number five.
The alone we worship, the alone we asked for help. Allah says in Surah Rafi chapter number 40 verse number 60, you asked me and I will answer your prayer. So if you want to ask Allah, Allah directly, that is the right way. And that is the best way to answer the question.
Yes, sister Assalamualaikum. This question is from a non Muslim sister, her name is Apoorva and she is a student. Her question is why are the Muslims not allowed to sing one day Mataram?
This is the question that Why are Muslims not allowed to save under Mataram?
Before I give the answer, this is a common question Why are Muslim not allowed to save one day Mottram, which was even asked in the press conference beginning of the conference by the press media? Before answering that, I would like to tell you that even the Hindus even they should not say when they Mottram
because if you know the song written by buncombe Chapa. One day Mataram means I bow down to my motherland. One day Mottram. It occurs strife in the full song. And as I mentioned earlier, according to the VEDA, it's clearly mentioned in graduate chapter number 32 was number three and synthesizer Punisher chapter number fours number 19. Natasha Timothy, of that God, there is no prathima there is no image there is no photograph, there is no picture. There is no portrait there is no sculpture, there is no idol.
So where is the question of worshiping the land, so any Hindu who has knowledge of his VEDA will never agree with him. If he does not know his scripture, he may say it. But if we know his scriptures, well, there are three lines three stanzas. Whenever it says one day Mottram, I bow down and worship to my motherland, he is going against his VEDA.
As far as the Muslims are concerned, there are 12 lines,
which are against the Quran and the Hadith.
thrice.
It says that about, remember the land, which is prohibited in Islam, we only bow to our Creator, Allah subhanaw taala.
V Muslims.
As long as the law of the land does not go against the law of the Creator, we are for the country. We love the country.
We want to support the country. We want to bring the country if required for the truth, very to die for the country, but we are not ready to worship the country.
Because we worship only Allah subhanaw taala.
He alone requires to be worshipped and this land, who's the creator of this land, Allah, Almighty God. So why should we worship the creation? worship the Creator, not the creation.
And furthermore, there are stanzas. In Monday Mottram, talking about divine giving attributes, talking about Lakshmi, talking about Durga, all the things, they go against the concept of the Quran. That is the reason and if you go back to history, this became a political issue. There's a couple of years back
You know, it wasn't done in 1800 and 60s or 70s. But mangium to the idea, it was more of a political motive.
And today, they want to make a political gimmick,
not realizing it is going against their own religion.
This song, one day, Mottram is going against the old religion. So my advice is not only Muslim, my advice to the Hindus is that even you don't even have a mantra.
Yes, brother
Assalamu alaikum Assalamualaikum.
My name is Leon john. And Firstly, I'd like to thank my friend, neural law for bringing me here, and giving me this opportunity to hear some wonderful teachings from you. Now, I got two questions to ask. First is, what does it take to be a true Muslim? And the second question is, Muslims pray five times a day? Why don't we Catholics and other religions pray five times a day? Is there any explanation for this?
Brother, I have two questions. First, is that what does it take to be a Muslim?
What is the requirement? And second is why do Muslims pray five times Catholics pay less? What is the reason?
As far as what does it take to be a Muslim? As I mentioned earlier, Muslim means a person who submits evil to God, say, if you submit your will to God, and follow the commandments of what you're Muslim.
The number one thing is that you bear witness that there is no God but Allah, no God, but one true Almighty God. And you bear witness that Prophet Muhammad is the third one and the Messenger of God. This is the basic faith. It is a fundamental creed known as Shahada. So once you say this, you enter into the basic fundamental creed, and to be a good Muslim, you should submit your will to Almighty God. So if you follow the commandments, given by Almighty God in the Quran, and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him his authentic hadith, then you'll be a good practicing Muslim.
As far as the second question is concerned, why do Muslims pray five times and we Christian vpls. The reason is, we Muslims, Salah is a sort of programming towards righteousness. So normally people, they say, pray,
pray is not the right translation of Salah.
Pray, Minister asked for help.
in Oxford Dictionary premise beseech in Salah. We don't merely ask for help. Besides asking for help, we are getting guidance from Allah subhanaw taala.
In other religions only ask for help in Islam, besides asking for help, we are getting guidance from Allah subhanaw taala for example, if the Imam otter savatya
recited recites the verse of the Quran also reminder chapter five verse number 90 yeah you live in harmony or you believe and number come roll my through most certainly intoxicants and gambling while on Zavala, Islam, dedication of stone divination of arrows reached a minimally shaytan these are sacred and fashionable Welcome to fluid abstain from the handle with me prosper. Yo we are getting guidance from Allah subhanaw taala in our Salah that don't have intoxicants. Don't gamble. Don't do fortunetelling don't do it. Worship is a central handiwork after informatory may prosper. So besides asking for help, besides asking, we are getting guidance from Allah subhanaw taala and we are
tending Allah subhanaw taala. So I prefer calling Salah as programming towards righteousness. And if you enlarge today, the amount of evil we see around us.
You know, bad things happening. evil thing, obscenity, cheating,
there are high chances that we can get deprogrammed
how a doctor tells you for a healthy body, three meals a day. So our Creator Almighty God knows that we have to be programmed five times a day
so that we will be on the straight track.
So he's our Creator, he knows that. So if you are drew Christian, even you should have a fight time You know why?
Well, if you read your scriptures, the book of acts like how we do ablution ceramizer chapter five, verse number five, that you have to wash your hands,
wash your face, rub dead with water, and wash the feet of triangle, similarly is mentioned in the book of Acts. Similarly, the Book of Exodus, that Aaron and Moses, they've washed their face enhance before they appear in front of the Lord. Same thing, the basic part of this da sujood if you're Genesis chapter number 17, verse number three, it says
Abraham fell on his face and prayed to God.
In Numbers, chapter number 20, verse number six, Aaron and Moses, they fell on the face and pray to God. Joshua, chapter number five, verse number 14, Joshua fell on his face and pray to God, if he is the Gospel of Matthew, chapter number 26, that Jesus Christ peace be upon him in the Garden of Gethsemane he, he took a few steps forward and fell on his face and pray to God.
Can Acrobat fall on his face and pray to God better than the wavy Muslims do? Marry to sudduth we put the highest part of the body the fire on the lowest part of the ground and say Glory be to Allah, the Most High, you know to be to Allah, the Most right price. So all the prophets of the Bible, they prayed the same way as the Muslims pray, and Jesus guys peace be upon him said in the Gospel of john, chapter number 16 was summer 2014. I have many things to say unto you, but do not bury them now. For him in the spirit of truth shall come, he shall guide you into all truth, he shall not speak of himself, all that he shall speak, he shall glorify Me. Now Jesus Christ, peace be
upon him said that wait for the spirit of truth, talking about Muhammad, peace be upon him. And there are various references of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him in the Old Testament, as well as the New Testament. If you read the New Testament, in the book of Deuteronomy, chapter number 18, verse number 18, in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 18, verse number 19, in the book of Isaiah chapter one and verse number 12, in the Song of Solomon chapter number five, verse number 16, all of the references speak about the coming of the last and final messenger, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, even in the New Testament, gospel of john chapter number 14, verse number 16, gospel of
john chapter number 15, verse number 26, gospel of john chapter number 16, verse number seven, gospel of john jack number 16, verse number 2014, all of these references, speak about the last and final messenger, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. So if you're a true Christian, if Christian means a person who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, the Muslims are more Christian than the Christian themselves. If you're a true Christian, you have to follow the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, and do ablution before Salah you should do food, and you should pray five times a day. Hope that answers the question. Thank you. I appreciate
that.
Thank you, brother Leon for your questions. The next question from the brother in the re a Salam alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. Sir, I'm having a question. This question is being framed by my professor. I am a student of first year computer science. And my sir is teaching me physics. His name is Rajiv but and I'm from enji Azaria DK Marathi college ambu. He is convinced by all the I mean to say what what misconceptions regarding Islam was the he's accepted that it is not misconceptions. So he is not only convinced by was last point that is ruthlessly killing of a good during bakrid. If you heard your question correctly, your professor wants to know that can we have
non wage from Hindu scripture? That's the question. I mean to say the ruthless killing of a goat. The ruthless he believes that you are killing a goat directly from the slowlyslowly.
Rather as the question of why ruthless The Killing he agrees with the killing of the goat. But why ruthless killing is his question. Yeah, fine. So he's convinced that you can have non wage but he's asking why do the Muslims they torture the animal before killing? Yeah, does one jotika photogra animal died? Why is it only torturing
now the discussion a similar discussion going on between a stick and a Muslim? And the sacred the same question, you Muslims, you are a merciless, you are ruthless. Don't kill the animal slowly and torture the animal to death. We seek one jotka for that and the animal dies. So the Muslim replied, No v Muslims. We are mirth kabocha we attack from the front we are mesh. Oh, you think you're a coward? You are Brazil you attack from behind?
Anyway, this is not the real reason why we Muslim Rosa. This was his wisdom, his achema this is not the real reason why we Muslim to Serbia. The reason we Muslim to Serbia, that Islamic slaughtering is when we cut the throat
and the vessels of the neck and the windpipe
without damaging the spinal cord. Because if the spinal cord is damaged, then there'll be cardiac arrest and the nerve going to the heart will be severe, and the blood will immediately stagnate. Now, when we cut the throat, and the windpipe and the vessels of the neck without damaging the spinal cord, the heartbeat pumping and majority of the blood it flows out of the body. Today science tells us that blood is a very good media of germs and bacteria
So we Muslims via hygenic, we want to let the blood flow out of the body. When the blood flows out of the body, even the toxins and the germs and the bacteria that contained in the blood flow out of the body, there are less chances of having diseases when we have that meat. Furthermore, when we cut the throat, and the windpipe and the vessels of the neck, the nerve, which is responsible for feeling of the pain going into the brain is also severe. So the animal does not feel pain, the animal kicks and breathers it is due to the gush of the flow of the blood outside the body. The ticking and reading is not due to pain, it is due to the muscle contraction and relaxation to the
animal dies a peaceful death in the method of stunning, very often, the animal dies a painful death after us. So the Islamic method of slaughtering is far more humane. And furthermore, if you slaughter the animal by the Islamic phobia method, the mutton and the meat remains fresh for a longer time, because it does not have blood. Hope to answer the question whether?
Yes, sister.
I'm asking this question on behalf of my friend who is the Hindu His name is Sachin and is an actor by profession. He would like to know why Muslim women are not allowed in the Cobra Stan or graveyard? And if it is the grave that women are not allowed to visit, then does that include the dargah? This was a question that why aren't women allowed to visit the graveyard and there are various different added that I didn't say Buhari in which the Prophet said he prevented the woman from going to the grave. And the reasons may be many, because maybe they are very emotional, and they may not be able to take the death of a human being. That's one of the reasons and furthermore,
there are other occasions in which the Prophet said that these women are not allowed because of the deeds.
Let me restrict it certain moment because of the deeds. So this is the reason why women are not permitted into the grave. Though there are scholars other scholars who do say that there are different ways in which the Prophet did permit certain woman to go depending upon the context, as far as the question is concerned that about the grave, the beloved partner masala Salaam said that a person should visit the grave, it will remind you of your Ark Hara.
Let me remind you, that finally you have to die. But when you go to the grave, you should pray for the person not to the person or through the person who can answer the question.
Yes, brother, your name and profession and your question. My name is gaydar. And this is my friend Naresh. My question to you, Mr. nyak, is that the laws that govern the universe have not changed from the time the universe was created? They were always there since the creation of the universe. So does God have any choice in changing the laws of the universe since time immemorial? Why hasn't God not changed the laws which governs the universe? If God has no choice in changing the laws of the universe, then why call him God? The question that the laws of the universe have been famous since the time it has been formed. So does God have a choice of changing the laws or not? And if God
does not have a choice in my column, God, I agree with you. It is God's choice, that he does not want to change, that the reason you haven't changed, you should not follow your choice. But it is God's will, that he does not want to change, no, you are forcing him to change my god follow you. If God wants to change, you can easily change. But Allah says in the Quran, in Surah, room, tap number 30 was number 30 that follow the nature of the law. So this is God's law.
If he wants he can change but does not want to change that this choice. Now you will tell him that okay, that God he wants to make the sun rise from the east and set in the West.
The challenge is you the Can you make the sunrise from the west and set in the East? The answer is no.
But under the earth karma. One of the signs of karma is that the sun will rise from the west
to show that if God wants you can do it. So on the Day of Judgment, karma, that will happen. How will it happen? Allah Allah, so Quran says clearly in Surah, Chapter 35 was number one, that Allah has power of all things, that he has power all things, but Allah does things which he wants. And he does godly things. Hope answers the question.
Yes, any non Muslim brother?
Brother. I'm asking this question.
On behalf my very close friend, he's a non Muslim. He don't want to disclose his name, but he's an engineer by profession. He wants to know, Quran does not contradict with modern science, but it says Adama Salam was the first man on the face of the earth. But this goes against the theory of Charles jiving regarding evolution.
But as a question he says Quran matches the sign but does not agree with the stripping of the Puranas and Muslim is the first human being. It goes against that theory of Charles Darwin and I agree with you. The Quran does not agree with the theory of Charles Darwin because Charles Darwin's theory, Quran is a book of fact, not a book of theory.
And
if you read the book of Charles Darwin,
if you read the book of Charles Darwin, the origin of species, it says that Charles Darwin went on the ship by the name of HMS Beagle, which went on Island men of color tropics, and he saw birds packing in holes and niches, depending upon the niches the bird packed, the beak became small and long. Based on this observation, he propounded his theory of natural selection, but he wrote a letter to his friend Thomas Thompson saying that I have got no 100% proof regarding my theory, but because it helps me and embryology and rudimentary organs, etc, he has propounded that otherwise, Charles Darwin himself agreed that they were missing links, that the reason in school, if we had to
insult someone, we used to say that if you were present during Charles Darwin's time, then his theory would have been proved right insinuating he looks like an ape.
So, this is just a theory, it does not affect at all, I have not come across a single book, which is called as the fact of evolution. All of these are theories of evolution. And furthermore,
according to paragraph a, he says, it is letting imagination done to wild, just based on few vestiges that we are assuming that we have been evolved from apes. Today, science has found four ways. First is Australopithecus. From the Ice Age, then CRO Magnon, Neanderthal man. All these what science has found, there is no link between them. And there's no proof that we have been evolved from apes.
And according to Hans, it's Craig, who's an expert in molecular biology. He says, it is observed just based on DNA to a view that our forefathers were apes. It is just an assumption. There are hundreds of scientists who have written against Darwin's theory, Darwin's theory has been proved false long ago. Now something is come on the internet recently. Okay, Darwin's theory, these are just hypothesis.
But certain things of Darwin, that life has been evolved from water, no problem. Quran says that instead of ambia, chap number 21 was number 30. So certain things are correct. But as a whole, that human beings have been dry for me. It's unscientific. It's a theory. And that's not a fact. I hope that answers the question.
Any sister, Islam welcome, brother. This is a question from a non Muslim audience. Her question states that we see on television many women in tortured in Afghanistan. Why do Muslim men torture or degrade women in Islam sisters as the question that we see on the television, you know, that Afghanistan, Muslim men are torturing woman? So why in Islam, Muslim men torture and degrade the woman? Sister? This question was replied, just a few days earlier. On the second day of the conference, on Saturday, on Saturday, 31st of October, I gave a talk woman in Islam protected or subjugated, and I gave the talk in detail. So ask your friend, to watch that tape, watch the DVD,
inshallah. It will answer all the queries regarding a main point that she saw on the television,
then Afghanistan, Muslim men, they are beating the woman.
And one when I was traveling, I came across a Malaysian couple. Both of them are doctors. They said that they spent more than a month in Afghanistan. And they told me that what they saw on television, the Taliban beating the woman, the Taliban.
So I asked them how do you know they told me that we have been Afghanistan has been more than a month. We know how the Taliban tie the turban. You know, when we see an Arab, we feel all Arabs the same? Emirati Saudi Kuwaiti but they themselves know that 1000 times the country in a different way and I'm
Dive into different style. If you go to a Kuwaiti different style to similarly the Taliban's, they have a particular style of time determines what she told, and what he told the couple that what they shot
even that they didn't do properly. That means they could shoot the party of the scene Hollywood, you know, 10 commandments, Moses peace be upon him party they see, but they made a fault when they show Muslim men in Afghanistan beating the woman. So therefore the Quran says in Surah Surah chapter number 49 verse number six, whenever you get information, you check it up before you pass it on to the third person. What we realize this isn't the gimmick of the media. And in the last conference 2008 my last talk was media and Islam war of peace. And I showed how the media goes out of the way to malign Islam. I'm not saying all Muslims are 100% good Muslims, there are black sheep in the
community. What what the media does, picks up these black sheep and portrays those exemplary Muslims and many a time they show thing which absolutely nonsense. It does not exist in Islam. So ask your friend to watch my tape woman writes Islam protector, subjugated and media and Islam war of peace hope Nancy's question. Yes brother. My name is Dino syarikat. I am doing research on the subject of a spiritual science aura.
One Muslim lady I was treated for breast cancer she was operated for one breast right child breast in Tata hospital. And second time she got breast cancer in the left breast. And when I have taken photograph of that lady, I came to know about the salt that was present animal salt what normally as you are eating animal soil, you can visualize the shape of the animal only. So this is an energy and electromagnetic energy of any kind is the root cause of 99% of health problem, say mobile, how much mobile is danger to kill 100 crore people of India, the mobile itself is a sufficient and government doesn't know medical science doesn't know the science of spiritual science of invisible energy. That
is electromagnetic energy. And your other brother, Dr. Zakir is a medical and a science student. What I would suggest that let's keep aside the background question rather eating a non wage, it is a process which is prescribed how to cut the animal. So if it is cut it once the soul goes out, energy goes out. And you don't get any health problem from that meat. But if it is not cut properly, and it is cruel way discard the energy remained in that made and you don't know when you are going to get that type of made, it is cutting edge opportunity and it is cut in a factory, then it will souls goes out there is no harm in taking that meat. But if it is not cut properly, then you are going to
get cancer paralysis attack. And this is happening what I have observed for 10 years with a photograph. Now there is each and every little answer
will answer whether they asked a question saying that there was a Muslim woman and he cured breast cancer then she got in the other left bed and secured the cancer. And then he went on to say that the animal is killed. Immediately the soul goes out no problem. If animals will ruthlessly it remains and there's a problem and Kansa come in shot.
Brother, I'm requesting you again. Why don't you join the Tata Memorial Hospital of cancer.
I know the doctors there I can tell you, brother government has made a low interest in magic remedy act 1954. Rather, which says that so many disease cannot be cured, you cannot claim for the disease and that is 99%. Now, I haven't answered your question. The five minutes left we have to give other people a chance and answer your question. Government is rightly not giving you permission. Because we don't want to have more problem in the hospital. What do you have to do medical, your cancer? Why are you standing here you will get the Nobel Prize medical sciences
for science. If you can cure cancer and cure the diseases just by spiritual thing, then allows the Nobel Committee to give you the Nobel Prize but but the committee will never select you. I'll tell you why. I gave such a scientific reason why Muslims slaughter the animal and let the blood flow out yet you're saying that the soul remains and the soul goes out. You love canfor brother, your medical knowledge is so weak.
Today man he tells us that blood is a good set of bacteria and germs and toxin. If we slaughter the Islamic way, the blood goes out and the toxin goes out. There's less chance of in disease you're saying the opposite no v signs are talking about I don't know. I'm a medical doctor. I want MBBS degree. And Quran says in Surah * chapter 16 verse 43 and four
ambia chapter number 21 verse number seven, first Allah Allah victory in quantum law, Solomon, if you don't know, as the person who knows. So this is my speciality, you can very well do what you want, the way you want to practice. But I am giving a scientific reason why we do it. And that is the reason the Islamic method is far superior. And it is much more hygienic, and the meat remains fresh for longer time hope to answer the question any sister, this is on behalf of a non Muslim sister. Yes, that would be the last question of the day Please. Her question is, what is the major difference between Prophet Jesus and Prophet Muhammad? If Prophet Jesus teaches people how to live
life, and worship God, the same thing is taught by Prophet Muhammad, those who are following Jesus, are they correct? Oh, should they follow the instructions of Prophet Muhammad? Because Prophet Jesus may come again on this earth. So he could be the last prophet? It's just a very good question. She has the question What is the difference between Prophet Jesus and Prophet Muhammad? Both of them taught good things to worship the same God what is the difference? Who should we follow? And Prophet Jesus is going to come again so he will be the last prophet? As far as the question is concerned, that amongst all the prophets, five prophets are considered according to the Hadith as great
prophets,
Prophet Abraham,
Prophet Newell salam, Prophet Moses, Prophet Jesus, and Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. So we consider Jesus Christ peace be upon him as one of the mightiest messengers of Allah subhanaw taala. Before answering the question, and it is one thing that no Muslim is a Muslim, if he does not believe in Jesus Christ, peace be upon him. We believe that he was one of the mightiest messengers of God, we believe that he was the Messiah considered Christ, we believe that he was born miraculously, without any male intervention, which many modern day Christian today did not believe. We believe that he gave life to the dead. With God's permission, we believe he is those born blind
lepers with God's permission, the Christian and the Muslims, we are going together.
You may ask Where is the parting of ways, the parting of ways is that many Christians, they say that Jesus Christ peace be upon him, he claimed divinity. In fact, if you read the Bible, there is not a single unequivocal statement. In the complete Bible, where Jesus Christ peace be upon him himself says that I am God over receivership me. If any Christian can point out any words of the Bible, any unequivocal statement, any unambiguous statement from the Bible, where Jesus Christ, please be upon him himself says that I am God always says worship Me, I am ready to accept Christianity.
In fact, if you read the Bible, Jesus Christ peace be upon him said, it's mentioned the gospel of john, chapter number 14, verse number 28, my father is greater than I, gospel of john chapter number 10, was number 29. My father is greater than all Gospel of Matthew chapter number 12, verse number 28, I with the finger of God cast out devils Gospel of Luke chapter 11, was number 20. I was the Spirit of God cast out devils gospel of john, chapter number five was Timothy, I can have my own self do nothing. Either you're a judge, and my judgment is just for I seek not my will, but the will of my Father, anyone who says, I seek not my will, but the will of Almighty God, he's a Muslim,
Jesus Christ peace be upon was a Muslim. He never claimed divinity is clearly mentioned in the Gospel of john chapter number 14 was summer 24. He said that the words that you hear are not mine, but my father's were sent me as mentioned the gospel of john chapter number 70, verse number three, this guy's peace be upon him says, This is life eternal, so that you may know there is one God and Jesus Christ and our sin is clearly mentioned the book of Acts, chapter number two was the 122.
A man of Israel, listen to this, Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God amongst you, by a wonders and miracles and signs, which God did by and you haven't destroyed.
A man approved of God amongst you, by wonders and miracles and signs which God did by manual witness to it. to Jesus Christ, peace be upon him was one of the mightiest messengers of God, but he was not God. And if you want to follow Him, as I mentioned earlier, in gospel of john, chapter number 16, verse number 2014, he said, I have many things to say unto you, but he cannot buy them now. For him in the spirit of truth shall come, he shall guide you into all truth. That means, if you are a true follower of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, besides believing in one God, you also have to follow the last and final messenger, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, as far as the last question is
concerned, that he will come again, so is indeed the last prophet. It's mentioned
In the Quran in surah majda chapter number five was the 116 the Jewish guys peace be upon him face to Allah Spano tala, that he may witness. I never said, worship me, but I said with the law worship Allah Robbie, who's my Lord and your Lord, so he will come in the Second Coming. Why? He is the only messenger of God, whose followers as a whole mistook that he claimed divinity, all the other messengers. None of the followers mistook that they claimed divinity, he Salah salam, Jesus Christ peace be upon him is the only messenger whose followers had a misunderstanding that he claimed divinity, that the reason in a second coming, he will come as a follower of mama salatu salam, he
will not bring any new teaching, he will come to testify that he never claimed divinity he will not bring any new message. The message is complete Francaise from Isaiah chapter five verse number three this day have a perfect religion for you. And I've chosen for you Islam and I've completed my favorite on you. So nothing new can be added or subtracted from Islam. He Salah, Salah millisecond coming he will come to testify to the Christians. He never said worship me but with Allah worship Allah Robbie, ora Baku, who's my Lord and your Lord, so he will come as an Amitabha masala salam to clarify the misconception among the Christians hope to answer the question Walker Davina hamdu
