Food- A Balanced Approach-Shaykh Hamza Yusuf 

I suffered and still am for my eating habits. Ended up with Anemia because bacteria (H pylori) was eating my insides due to sugar and the wrong foods. I was malnourished. After everything I tried it was the Sunnah that is curing me. Honey , black seed, olives, eating less but real food. The Quran and Hadith warned me but I didn’t think it would happen to me. The bacteria thrives in me due to eating the wrong food.

I just LOVE Shakyh Hamza Yusuf... May God keep him alive for many... many years from now on. Ameen!

Thank you for uploading this! Very beneficial information that everyone needs to be aware of. It's always nice to hear Shakyh Hamza Yusuf's thoughts on food and nutrition -- not many scholars talk about this and there aren't enough videos about this topic. Alhamdulillah I actually just started growing food :) I couldn't believe how easy tomatoes were to grow! I'm growing several different type of veggies as well as some fruits. Homegrown tastes sooo much better and it's also more nutritious! And it's not as hard as you think... try it!

walahi If i missed fajr salat, i feel i slept too much and wasted my time and life.

What a beautiful conversation.Two great scholars talking in the same line.

Salaam to everyone sheak hamza yousuf for pressedent inshallah ♥️♥️♥️

Mashallah, thank you Sheik Hamza, your comments on environmental issues including diet and our overconsumption are spot on with all current environmental thinking, it gives me courage to do the right thing for our planet and people.

Mashallah! Prior to this lecture I had a different perspective on what malnutrition was, and I believe now I've understood it better. May Allah reward you sheikh.

MashAllah. Those two brothers are amazing. May Allah protect them and reward them. Dr Ali is so soft spoken which is charming but he's hard to understand. It could be his mic tough. Anyways, I could listen to them for hours.

Allah bless Shaykh Hamza Yusuf

Thank you

mashaAllah beautiful reminder

thank you so much for the great interview. I am studying the life of Rumi and this very helpful

Thank you for sharing your wisdom beloved Shaykh.

Interesting debate. Good to see the brother, Dr Abdullah, chilling and reflecting. Eating small meals, however, is recommended for people with problems with regurgitation or Helicobacter pylori. It regulates the stomach acid. One reason it is hard for people to fast if they suffer from this illness.

Ma Sha Allah

mashAllah a beautiful invitation to amazing content. I have always loved to know our beloved prophet SAW diet. Alhamdoulilah. JazakAllah kheyr

Thank you for posting this shaykh sidi Abdullah, it was wonderful to gain more insight about the shaykh's daily dietary practices and rationale for them. May Allah reward he and you both. What was the final decision about the stunned chicken? I know Imam Zaid prefers not to eat it, and it is not something professed on the halal package 'stun' or 'no stun' - so is it a company by company basis?

Thank you for the lecture my dear brothers

thanks danjewad sukran allways welcome in brussels

Lol! My husband is from Chad he will not eat until I sit down with him.

Abdal?Whao!

MashAllah excellent talk, presenter abit annoying by adding sound effects

But sahih hadith states that prophet muhammad saw did eat whole wheat. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I think the Shaykh meant Otto Heinrich Warburg

I work at a Taco Bell part-time, I’m a student, is this acceptable?

ehm ehm ehm yeah yeah right ehm ehm ehm ehm ok ehm ehm hmmmm ehm hmmmmmmmm ok right right eh ehm. I am pullling my hair this makes me stressed

It's not our fault it's the advertisements and commercials that keep repeatively showing to us and pounding that stuff into our heads because they want our consumption it's evil and sad

The presenter just goes off topic randomly, annoyed me abit. But a brilliant lecture.

Why does the presenter keep humming throughout the interview. If the presenter can't stop humming and agreeing to every point maybe his mic should be switched off.

An interesting offering, though what Hamza Yusuf said about farmed fish is quite inaccurate, as farmed fish are fed items which have harmful effects on people (cancer is said to be caused by this) if consumed regularly. Interesting though nevertheless, but please do not blindly follow either of these two in all that they say.

are enemas allowed in islam please can someone comment on this topic

الحديث اللذي ذكر لا تجعلوا بطونكم مقابر للحيوانات لم أجده في البخاري بل وجدته عند الشيعة فأرجوا التثبت من الحديث Couldn't find the hadith he mentioned don't make your stomachs graves for animals in Sahih al bukhari rather found it with the Shia so we need to be careful and confirm the Hadith before qoating

A man should bring a woman with status meat 3 times a week ??

The absolutely shocking fact inside Abrahamic traditions is the almost complete absence of consideration of animal suffering! They do not reflect one second about the hell that animals go through - they are often killed when fully conscious, boiled alive, violated, cut their legs in order that they cannot run away, hung up and their throat slit! This appalling fact made me become a Hindu Vaishnava - they know what is DHARMA and AHIMSA, because their SHASTRAS are Apaurusheya, coming directly from the Source, where the others cut themselves off the source - and hence swim in ignorance - ahankara!!!

“um hmm um hmm um hmm” SHUT UUUUUP

The Prophet never at wheat?
