Subhanallah. I remember about 7 years ago I was in a dark place spiritually and I went to the masjid (almost didn’t) for maghrib. The imam (who I’d never seen before) decided to give a short lecture afterwards, and so I wasn’t in the mood to stay and listen, but I stayed seated away from the circle. This imam immediately realized the situation and he narrated this exact hadith, basically to tell me that because I was shy to leave, Allah would be shy to me. This was a turning point in my spiritul journey, as Allah gave him wisdom in dawah and had sent him to me at a crucial time in my life. Alhamdulillah. Thank you uncle Paul for everything you share.
I cordially invite you to Islam. Allah the most high will surely open up doors of divine secrets to you. You are here for a reason, because these gold mines are not so apparent to even many of the Muslims, who are heedless. You have recognised it, that means, you have personal interest in it. Wish you peace!
Brother Paul, One thing I find beautiful about you is your zeal to share the knowledge. This could have easily been just a personal realization but you took the effort to share it with us. May Allah increase you in goodness and give you more insight.
For anyone now interested in buying the Muwatta of imam Malik, i highly recommend the 'Moroccan Royal Edition'. Although the version of Aisha Bewley (the one br. Paul shows in the video) is an excellent translation, the moroccan royal edition is a more recent publication and is more than just a translation. It has a lot of footnotes with information on the isnads/chains. It also has a large introductory text, which can be regarded as a study in itself on the Maliki madhab and the Muwatta.
These inssights are precious ♡ :as a born muslim the perspective to see the proof for authenticity is not what I realize as I take that for granted which is why I appreciate your contributiions a lot. I recall another short video from your siide about the solar eclipse and the death of the prophet's son and how if he would not be a real messenger he could have related that incident to him from which you deducted the truthfulness of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH. . The extraordinary qualities of the undderstanding of the human hearts as mentioned in this hadith in this source from imam Malik highlights the reality and beauty of our Prophet..; al Muwatta is less known than the later compilations which is another beneficial piece of knowledge you are sharing ..May Allah bless you..
Beautiful! Thank you and jazakAllahkhayr Paul! And notice how the Messenger of Allah, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him, did no point at the men, mention their names, or rebuke them directly. Every act of man can be a spiritual one, and every One who returns to Him will find shelter in Him! For some reason, reminds me of the hadith qudsi, where Allah says, "I am as My servant expects me to be/or thinks that I am."
I don't know anyone other than Paul who can deliver the message so beautiful. Although I am not a native speaker, i have no problems to follow him. Greetings from Austria, may allah be pleased with your work. Jazakallahu Khairan 🤲🤲🤲

Thank you brother Paul I don’t have the capacity to absorb books the way you do, but I thank God he filters his words through you to me. Love you to pieces.
Beautiful story revealing the uniqueness and knowledge of our beloved prophet sala Allah alayhi wa sallam sharing the knowledge by examples like the coran does
Your benefits Mr Paul are beyond what would be thought. alongside the religious benefits and spirituality I also use your videos in class to teach English as a foreign language, my student learn to respect and understand Islam better when they see it's global effect on people who's tongue speaks an other language, in this case a popular deeply affecting language and a dominating culture. First they see a person speaking a very clear understandable English, Native English. Then they hear a familiar other language and they see the mixture of language and culture and the common factor that reunites it all and that allows them to learn a new language and be themselves at the same time no need to try everything but still learn everything possible as knowledge is the advice given to us by Mohamed SAAW a neverending quest.. Thank you.
Our Honourable brother Paul, Probably we all need episodes to share many of the authentic Hadeeths, analyse them and extract hidden/apparent wisdoms and lessons to the audience. Kindly consider it. May Allah (swt) bless you.
Salaam Paul I m very much interested in your books.where can one get hold of them.I have seen a couple of your videos and you seem to have all the right books with you.
MashaAllah Brother Paul! If I may, it also reminds me of something I read from Syeikh Hamza Yusuf. And that is there is an expect that Allah treats us based on how we treat others. Like: he who is not merciful to people will not be shown mercy by Allah. Similar to: do onto others as you would have them do unto you. Allahuaqlam
Masha Allah, alhamdullilah lading on this Channel, thank you very much, is there any other books as historical Islamic reference to be read ?, probably it can help me to understand the validty or level of a hadist
Assalamu alaikum brother Paul, Can you please share the link of the book, I have looking for English translation of muwatta for a long time. Jazakallahu Khairan
Allah is the knower of hearts. The heart turns Either to the.light or to darkness. Qalb means that which turns. Thank you for this brilliant hadith via imam maalik and may your heart always turn to the light and lead others to it. Jazakala
