It's a tragedy to see people considering themselves sophisticated because of possession of a degree, an iPhone, a soft cover novel book and a skinny jeans. We forget that true human values remain in possession of faith in God and good manners. Remember, culture is liquid and faith is solid. Once can be changed to meet the demands of status quo and the other remains solid and unchanged.
@@komrahtminkal2359 I think the best way is to read the Qur'an and understanding it's deep knowledge or tafseer of Qur'an that way u can gain knowledge about Islam or read Hadeeth and listen to mufti's and imam's. We should follow the ways of Islam and Qur'an that's how you gain knowledge of Islam and Qur'an
@@komrahtminkal2359 I'm not qualified to answer since I wish to drop even tho I can't bc I wanna please my parents. I recommend getting out of your Comfort Zone. Some might say to get enrolled in Madinah University or something but pls don't do that now. Read lots of Islamic Books, but the best thing you could do now is Memorising the Qur'aan In Sha Allah. In that process learn the Tafsir. And pls don't get extra weightage to study Hadith now, later you'll have time In Sha Allah. Last but not least workhard alot; save money to travel. Subhan Allah travelling to diffent countries will be enormously benefitial. May Allah subahanu watala'a Increase your Knowledge and make you among the Righteous. Aameen:)
@@komrahtminkal2359 don't study the Quran or sunnah without a teacher. Find local scholars you can learn from or enrol at Zaytuna institute of Medina Institute. If you self study it will lead you astray as you need guidance in this matter. Edit: spelling.
mashAllah People like him are supposed to be custodians of the two haramain. Our qibla is Kaba but we look towards sincere Muslims like him for leadership in Islam.
@@c.a.t.732 no he believed mutants should coexist with humans. Cypherx is wrong for comparing such a knowledgeable real human being with a fictional character out of a comic book, specifically when the human he's comparing just said we have an issue with declining literacy. C.A.T., you're wrong for replying as if you know what said fictional character's, who's entire IMAGINED existence is not one you created, opinions are on the subject of demons. As well as reducing the opinions and ideas of a man who's most likely much better read than you are from writers who espouse your own ideas, to demons and possessions.
I feel one of the biggest mistakes the Muslim community has made, is that we have not readily embraced the challenges of the world. Yes, modern entertainment and media is corrupt and shows a lot of unethical ideals and behavior. However, why have we not created viable alternatives which are intriguing but have some moral fiber? The educational system has devolved into a system which inhibits creativity and stunts human intellect, yet why are we not developing better institutions and systems which can combat this? We do some efforts but it appears as if we've largely accepted this observatory role in the world because "they" are so influential and powerful, any attempt to mold society has become futile. Even if such efforts to enact change take centuries, it takes the work which starts today.
True Jamal Bradley. The thing is that the Muslim world is behind because we've fallen for the dunya, like the western world itself. It doesn't matter who's superior in dunya. We Muslims have to get back to practicing Islam. It starts with the self, then the influence naturally carries outward to family, neighbors, community, and the world. But you have many Muslims trying to change the world before they change themselves, and that won't work. We have to help ourselves then start calling others and being mentors. This can best be done starting properly under the guidance and leadership of a proper shaykh of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamah who will teach tazkiyah and teach one to implement the teachings and pass on the help. Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh hafidhahullah is one such shaykh who is definitely doing this better than anyone right now, as I see, through Tareeqah Muhammadiyah, Prophetic Path, U.K. academy of Islamic sciences, Wiselife Academy, and Dabbagh Welfare Trust. The success is in passing on not just the Islamic sciences, but how to truly implement it and help others do the same, at the same time helping others in their dunya through charity, marriage help, help with emotions, trauma, and addictions, etc., and inviting eachother to our true purpose in life.
I agree. We need Muslims who are great in Quranic Arabic Science of hadith and great in medicine, literature, robotics, agriculture, halal financing, etc. We need an Islamic renaissance. Muslims dont know their Deen, so how will Allah allow to conquer the dunya. It's a calamity. Right now you got Muslim voting and seeking help from either trump or biden, rather then being on the Deen seeking istigfar and making dua. We as a ummah have missed the mark.
Agreed and very true . We are standing far away from islam and the teachings of the prophet Mohammed peace be upon him. We are only following the 5 basic pillars .The building of islam is built on this foundation. We are just standing on a foundation .
Hamza Yusuf is just on another level Rahimhu Allah. His knowledge of the Western and Islamic traditions and his synthesis of them is truly astounding. One of the most erudite scholars of his generation.
Couldnt agree more my man.he is a very rational thinker and he doesn’t have cultural,and school of thought biases when making a statement he will lay out the beliefs of all madhabs and give his humble opinion on what he feels is the most sound..truly admirable
To ponder nothingness and eternity. I never looked at it that way. I accepted Islam four years ago and my life has become so much more meaningful. My soon to be 16 year old daughter however refuses to believe in Allah. And she suffers from depression, and I believe that is the reason why; because she is pushed to live a life of meaninglessness by the society surrounding her that she so desperately wants to fit into. This video has made it clear to me. We all sometimes need someone who helps us put something into words that we are in the midst of and can't quite figure out or articulate ourselves. May Allah bless you with the best of this life and the hereafter Shaykh Hamza Yusuf. This video is a godsend for me.
The temptation in our age are the worst ever in the world with unlimited way to corrupt young people esp girl with their phone then peers then pressure of life are immense, I think you should send your daughter to Islamic school like syeikh hamza's school but idk .may ALLAH guide your daughter.
I spent 13 years in Africa studying Islam and Arabic and on my return to America the first thing that I noticed was people cursing..Shaykh Hamza is correct our society is becoming degraded.
The love of materialistic duniya is a major factor in our degradation. Our communities are plagued with crime and drugs. Lack of love for learning, religious or otherwise, has resulted in many of our youth turning to quick rich strategies which are mostly illegal/haram. Our predecessors who conquered the hearts of humanity did things to please the Creator. As a result the Creator gave them success. Today we mostly do things to please our nafs/ego. There is an urgent need to educate our communities to purify our intentions if things are to improve. Start with something as basic as keeping our streets clean of litter. ''Cleanliness is half of faith." Wallahu a'alam.
Ma shaa allah.. i lovee to hear and learn from shayk hamza yusuf. He is such an inspiration! Just looking at his face makes me happy and hopefull!! May allah protect ,us our children and all the good people from the hell fire. Ameen
If only he was leading the whole ummah we could probably get a diamond age with his guidance. Love watching his videos our so called Muslim leaders should maybe watch his videos might learn a thing or 2. May Allah bless sheikh Hamza. 🙏❤️
Hamza is also one of my favorites. I like to listen to his explanations. But every scholar has something special to tell and I don’t expect them to be angels. Nobody is perfect anyway😁 Jazzak Allah for uploading. May Allah reward you🤲🏻
The good Shaykh is fascinating to listen to. So many lessons. He is so well read (an important well to drink from). I’m an Orthodox Christian but I truly admire his teachings on Islam which I readily admit I’m ignorant on. A good man indeed. 🙏
الحمدلله على نعمة الإسلام شيخ حمزة احب اتابع حلقاتك كثير بس الانسان الي عايش في الشرق غير الي عايش في الغرب الثقافة والعلم والعمل وغيره والكل الي يوحد ربنا يعبده ولايشرك به ويخلص النية مهما كانت العقبات والامتحان والمحن ربي يقدره اياه والمؤمن دائما مبتلا ربي يقوي ايماننا ويثبتنا في دينينا ويجمعنا مع الحبيب المصطفى
Slms. Jazakalaa Jazakalaa Jazakalaa Sheigh. My Gratitude To you Sheigh and All Scholars Who Are Trying To Change this Status Quo. May OUR RABB Grant us Knowledge with Wisdom to Strive Relentlessly to Bring the True Meaning Of Islam to the Life Of Our Youth in any Small or Big Way Ameen. May ALLAH SWT reward you and yours Sheigh Hamza.
The problem is not only just social media but that social media feeds you content that you watch. So you're just sucked into the same topics over and over and over. Reinforcing your idea of what the world is and looks like and not being given the opportunity to learn something different.
Everytime i see myself In the mirror Seeing my face and Body change i asked myself Who am i? What am i doing here? Is there meaning in my Life Fuck no i'm just Starring at the Darkness In my Cold fucking Abyss
He is not empty he is choosing his word from different dictionaries and different pages and he is doing this in his mind while he is taking and moving his hand and smiling.
