Can relate to this so much, especially loosing christian friends, which actually gave me more belief as they were not following their own book which tells them to love everyone even who they see as their enemies. Its a lonely journey but a worthwhile one.
ITS IS LAMB JESUS NOT ISLAM ITS MUZZLE THEM NO PROPHETS IN THE MIDDLE EAST AFTER JESUS NOT MUSLIM.. ITS I AM THE WORD OF GOD NOT IMAM .. ISLAM IS SATAN RUN...
It is lonely but at the same time so rewarding. Keep your head up dear sister, we are only travelers on this world. Today I went to shroud my neighbor, she just got sick last week and today she is gone. In a few years nobody will remember us anyway but inssallah in hereafter will be forever
Paul's journey to Islam made me, a Muslim, on my journey. I was an atheist, like Paul, but I was raised in a Christian missionary school, named THE HOLY CROSS SCHOOL, in Dhaka, where Sister Joseph Mary taught me "do unto others as you expect others to do unto you" and thought if all humans followed this dogma, there won't be any problem and peace could be easily achieved. But I discovered not only Jesus taught his disciples this dogma, but Buddha taught his disciples the same. In my quest, I discovered that this dogma was taught by Krishna when he preached Sanatan religion to the Yadava tribe 11,000 years ago. When it dawned on me that this is the divine design, planned by Allah/God/Vishnu to guide all his creations (2 billion Christians, 2 billion Muslims, 1.4 Hindus, 2 billions Buddhists etc.) to live worthy life here on earth, called Sharia in Islam.

Brother Paul! I always wondered if u are Muslim because u r never use to say u were. I have been watching ur videos for years now. I am born muslim and ur videos are so much of light and knowledge. Even today I listened to one of ur short clip for 5 times. U have been a beacon of knowledge for us. Thanks 🙏
We " walk " along with you brother Paul. You have shared and accessed - to our immense benefit - so much in terms of Knowledge and Wisdom along the way. We continue to tag along ever since - what a Journey. We love it and we want to continue to be part of yours. Allahuma Aameen. Wassalam Paul
Mashallah Allahu Akbar I saw your 4 year old video when you said you are no more Christian today and wondered what then? And stumbled up on this one Happy for you happy myself too. May Allah bless you and us all Ameen
He who lost God, what did he find?! And he who found God, what did he lose?! May God reward Mr. Paul with Paradise! Thank you for the nice interview 🌾💐
Quran 1:6 - 7: (6) Guide us along the Straight Path, (7) the Path of those You have blessed-not those You are displeased with(the Jews), or those who are astray(the Christians).🙂
I finally found it. The video I was looking for. It took me some efforts but it is worth it. Your research for the truth is fascinating. May Allah keep you on the path of truth until you meet Him.
Q.S. AL-QASAS 28:56 It is true thou wilt not be able to guide everyone whom thou lovest; but Allah guides those who He will and He knows best those who received guidance.
Purpose of five pillars of islam Purpose of Shahada or (Testimony of faith) = To believe in the "Oneness of God" or To believe in "One God" and follow the lifestyle of God's last and final Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him). Purpose of Salat or Prayer = To remember God through prayer or To achieve consciousness of God. Purpose of Sawm or Fasting = To achieve self-control through fasting. Purpose of Zakat or Charity = To become helping hand for poor and needy through charity. Purpose of Hajj or Pilgrimage = To achieve brotherhood by gathering people from throughout the world and together worshipping "One God".
Thank you Brother Paul for the beautiful story of your journey in search of truth. ,,, may Allah, ease this journey for you and us and make us transverse the road quickly.
When I was a christian ( not sure what I am now ) I always had a problem with the trinity and regarding Catholicism the near worshipping of saints and images - I might become Muslim one day but wont rush into anything great vid again thanks -apologies about the obesity ( I'm work in progress )
Mr. Paul Williams as one of muslim brothers, I am so happy and glad that you are muslim converts. Especially you are always speak on your behalf on Islam objective perspectives. Thank you so much my dear muslims brother. Whenever you are coming to Jakarta, Indonesia, we muslims here will be more than happy to welcome you here. You are so welcome to stay in our house. Barakallah my dear brother 🙏
I am very very happy that you embraced Islam. May Allah keep you steadfast in Islam for your whole life. I recommend you to study the biography of Hazrat Salman Parsi one of the close companions of Holy Prophet Muhammad PBUH and you will come to know how he struggled for getting the right path of Islam. He turned Christian from Megian, Jew from Christian and Muslim from Jew.
I think, it is always good to realize the True Path, like in your case, than simply to know it, as being born a Muslim...One tends to have more conviction like that!
Very nice to hear your journey to understanding the Islam, welcoming you to this amazing religion for all humanity. Assalamu Alikum I am sorry to learn your friends have stopped talking to you it must be hard for you, let us all hope and pray that one day they will understand you better.
From what I can gather from this video, paul simply wasn't a christian at all in the first place. The fact that he had so much doubts and suspicion about the bible (back when he was an evangelical christian) makes one to question whether or not he was truly a christian back then. If one is a true christian, he will accept whatever that is presented to him in the bible. The bible clearly records that the father, son and holy spirit are 3 members of the triune God. Faith plays a very big part in not just christianity, but in most other religions in the world today. And to make things worse, he became a catholic later on, which everyone knows by now, is an idol worshipping denomination of christianity. This gives him more than enough reason to break away from christianity and embrace islam.
It is because of the lack of education and rights of Islamic women. It is the fastest growing religion because of the high birth rate - plus anyone who leaves is threatened with death.
I watched through all these converts videos, and all people mention that Islam has all the answers, but no specific examples. Can any of you Mulsim give me some examples? What are the crucial answers you found in it ?
In that case, it would help of you search the question directly. As in, from what i recall, here br Paul mentioned the problem of evil as an example of a topic where he found Islam to have the answers. Therefore, you should try searching for "the islamic response to [insert topic or question] I would also recommend you check out Sapience Institute. Videos on the topic by Hamza Tzortzis or Mohammed Hijab
I can give you 2 or 3 specific answers. Islam clearly states how Mary was approached by Angel Gabriel and how she reacted and the whole episode that you can clearly understand without any doubt. The crucifixion of Jesus and he was raised without any harm to him and that he would return one day. And how a similar person was placed by God on the cross in his place. Further if you have doubts if Moses existed? Many people do. So his life and story is fully covered in the Holy Quran. If you read you will love it If
@@syedaleemuddin6804 Some people even doubt if Jesus existed. If he was crucfied ore someone else at his place (Simon of Kyrene?) and was lifted to heaven, who cares. This stupid muslim story is only to discredit Jesus as saviour who died for our sins on the cross. Koran is a fairy tale book full of fantastic BS stories e.g. how Mary was approached by the angel Gabriel etc. According to ignorant Koran Christian trinity is believing in God Jesus and Mary which is false.
Ive just had an apiphany while listening to Paul Williams , seth was adams 3rd son and the scythians or sethians were an ancient Eastern Iranic equestrian nomadic people who had migrated during the 9th to 8th centuries BC from Central Asia to the Pontic Steppe in modern-day Ukraine and Southern Russia, where they remained established from the 7th century BC until the 3rd century BC. Am i just clutching at straws or am i on to something? Ive also just found out that my ancestors who are picts/scottish are also related closely through the scythians, wow oh wow ive been searching for answers for a while now and think i have finally found my history for real. Muslims and Scots are blood related 😮
Atheists miss the point that we believe in the after life which is perfect. This world is imperfect, unequal and unjust. God is testing us who will stand up for justice, feed the poor and work for the less fortunate. Great reward is waiting for the grateful people and the ungrateful ones who deny God & ignore their obligations towards fellow human beings will inherit eternal hell fire.
@Jack William "Allah never gives you more than you can handle". Isn't that in the Quran? But it's not true. Many people are burdened with more than they can bear. So they die, by their own hand or not, or live the rest of their life as soulless zombies.
Paul lost faith because he was a protestant and they like to live by the book solely which is impossible without Church cause Church gave us book. Then he found some things from the book that he could not comprehend, which was by design, and now he found another book to live with and he did not start to question it yet and find its inconsistencies. What a bunch of poor sad people :(
The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "if a person accepts Islam, such Islam is good, Allah will decree reward for every good that he did before, and every bad deed that he did before will be erased. Then after that will.come the reckoning; each good deed will be rewarded ten times up to seven hundred times. And each bad deed will be recorded as it is, unless, Allah, the Almighty and sublime, forgives it. Grade : Sahih (Darussalam) Reference : Sunan an-Nasa'i 4998
🤣😄 😄😄😄😄🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 we all need water, whether we agree or not. Because when you get thirsty, you do no other thing but ask for water. You can Take that water, it's available, it's JESUS ❤️❤️
My question for Paul is , did he drink alcohol or use other substances at the party he went to ? was he still intoxicated when he entered the church ? These are very important questions to analyse weather he did not convert for primairily emotional reasons ?
What is also recommended reading is the genocidal history of Islam during the 4 Caliphates. Why would any person today convert to a cult that has such a shocking history.
Asslamu Alaikum Brother, Indeed you are an avid reader and thus you have dived into Islam via reading the Holy Quran. Please also beware of many other books those are not entirely in line with Quranic spirit, may easily confuse many. Follower of those books actually messed among Muslim communities.
Dear Paul brother Islam Christianity and Judaism are the three branches of one faith, the basic belief was the same which was the worship of one God, the judgment day, belief in prophethood, and the concept of virtue and sinful acts. All these were common terms in all these three religions. But with the passage of time the teachings of Torah and Gospel were changed that's why we are unable to find the original texture of Gospel and Torah among hundreds of different versions of these books unlike the Quran e karim which is preserved by Allah taala.
Originals copies of last 2 Scriptures were revealed in different Languages .it's been Translated in few languages before you got the Bibles. Originals copies were list.
Whilst Judaism and Christianity obviously share the one God, only Muslims state that their religion is based on the same God. Muslims are not mentioned anywhere in the bible - they have no Jewish links, Mohamed is not prophesied. The Abrahamic god of Israel and subsequently, Christians is not Allah. .The God of Abraham has a special name - Jehovah or Jarweh - this name is not mentioned anywhere in the Quran. The God of Abraham lived with the Israelites and led them for forty years when they wandered in the desert - the Quran states that Allah cannot enter the created universe. The Quran was only finally written down in the current form (or at least four different versions of it which are still available now) in the 18th Century. By that time, much of it had been lost - mainly by being burned by various leaders over time who disagreed with some suras or were concerned about the vast differences between versions and needed the evidence gone. Ayesha herself records that through carelessness, she allowed some verses to be eaten by a tame sheep but she can be forgiven for her carelessness as it was a the time that Mohamed was finally dying from the poison that a Jewish woman had given him a couple of years before. Some of the Hadiths state that verses were lost because the reciters died in battle so the words died with them. Many Muslims, it seems, only read the Quran through interpretation by others - and so I know that many Muslims are Godly and loving and kind and believe in God with a true heart, a heart that has been misled perhaps but, hopefully will find its way home.
@@tonicbottle where it is stated in the Quran e karim that "Allah cannot enter the created Universe ??" Please give me reference of the verse and chapter if your are truthful, never take support of mere Assumptions or hypothesis, moreover each letter of the Holy Quran is preserved by one who revealed it not only on the paper pages but In the hearts of Millions of Muslims around the Globe throughout the age for the last 1400 years. show me any one single Christianor a Jewish who has ever memorised the Gospel or Torah. This is the living Miracle of Holy Quran that even a child of 7 year can memorised over 6,000 verses of the Glorious Quran.
This is a question for everyone here reading these comments to ask themselves, genuinely, sincerely and soberly: What can you say AND PROVE about Islam that should want to make you run to this religion and convert or stay in it, if you're a Muslim already - a religion from the Third World desert regions of the world - of countries that have nothing except noise, poverty, chaos, heat, flies, stray dogs, stray cats, bad education, bad medicine, no jobs, jobs that pay nothing, premature death rates, high illiteracy rates, no technology of their own, no technological advances (nor lead in any area in life nor the world), and that have NEVER given anything to the world, and have the lowest count of Nobel Prize winners on Earth (most of which are shared) ...What can you possibly say, that the countries of Jesus (the First World countries), don't have more of, and better, bigger, more beautiful, more plentiful, higher, more organized and more excellently???? Think hard about it. "Blessed is the native whose God is Jehovah!" Psalms 33:12 (Young's Literal Translation Bible)
Like every religion Islam has a certain history and tradition and geographic origin. IMO it is absolutely ridiculous and stupid as westerner to convert (or allegedly revert) to Islam. Everyone should stick to his religion (if he has one or seeking one) which is rooted in his culture.
To a true believer of the Christian God. There is no travil to Islam . I am secured in my be faith. So ask why are followers of Islam. So afraid of my faith. We are not taught to force. So if you leave me alone. I ,you. Because I am Taught to live with differance. As long as no force. I'm very secure in the arms of my savior. Jesus.
You can find some good videos on this topic from Hamza Tzortsis, Mohammed Hijab etc or generally if you search on RU-vid. Also check out IERA's website
You mentioned the experiences, perspective and suffering of Palestinians Muslim and Christian……. but you never mentioned that you understand the experiences, perspective, and suffering of Israeli Muslims, Christians, Jew, atheists etc 🤔
Do people get married in church as a magnets of families mergers example meaning of alhamdulillah when breaking wording to original meaning Al one with Ham meaning one Du meaning two ill meaning seeking or Shifu or sick or Sikhism looking for lah meaning love
It seemed like Paul didn’t really believe in the Bible. He had to believe by faith that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and he will give us the Holy Spirit to guide us while we are on this earth there’s no way that you will get into heaven by your works on this earth, it is by faith and by God‘s grace that we will enter into heaven and John 10 verse 27 and 29 he talks about he will give us internal laugh, and that no man will be able to pluck them out of his hand !
"Christianity ignores the problem of evil" what??? How can this guy say this nonsense? The crucifixion of Jesus itself is the best answer to the problem of evil.
@Paul Williams if you wind up speaking with Shaykh hamza yusuf could you ask him to comment on Imam Mahdi? I'm intellectually intractable in Catholicism; I've been listening to Hamza Yusuf on RU-vid probably for the last ten years and I've never heard him comment on him. I understand if it's too contentious or if there's a difference of opinion and he doesn't want to comment. I've heard Hamza yusuf mention Dajjal, who is probably the same person Paul is talking about in Second Thessalonians. Things Muhammad predicted have a way of coming to pass. I suspect the last Pope and Imam Mahdi may at least be moral support for each other... I'm open to being corrected.
Quaran 4:157 That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:- Who is the "We" killed Christ Jesus? So They did kill Jesus.. but "THEY" killed him not, nor crucified him So, who is the "They" and who is the witness ? Was it Mo ? Then " those who differ therein are full of doubts with no knowledge, but ONLY conjuncture to follow, for a surety they killed him not" - IT means clearly that Jesus did die on the cross. For further info Jesus mentioned before his last breath " Forgive them for they know not what they do " ALSO, in the koran it is said ----- 19:33) Peace be upon me the day I was born and the day I will die, and the day I will be raised up alive."21 (19:34) This is Jesus, the son of Mary; and this is the truth about him concerning which they are in doubt. ---They killed him not --- But Allah raised him ['Iesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allah is Ever All-Powerful John 19:32-34 32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and those of the other. 33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs. 34 Instead, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water flowed out.…
@@OptimizedMuslim Nonsense is the correct word. After all only someone who admires a cult that has a genocidal history would want to convert to such a cult. Islam during the 4 Caliphates from 634 to 1918 was a predatory cult whose followers invaded other countries and killed, enslaved, raped and castrated millions of people. How can worship of God be considered as ethical or moral through a cult that has such a genocidal history. Instead of reading the Quran Mr Williams should have read the history of Islam.
@Mas-ud Al-hassan Nonsense is a legitimate response when observation contradicts propaganda. Muslim propaganda is clearly contradicted by historical facts. The only ones who should cry are Muslims who have allowed themselves to be the victims of their cult's propaganda.
why only the interviewer had subtitles and not paul? it reminds me of this meme skit about the journalist interviewed the talibans and the talibans complaining about why only him had subtitles although his english is perfectly well understoood
I would agree with you if that was the case 😂. However, if you go beyond 14 seconds you will note that the subtitles were added only for the intro question. In any case, I switch on the auto-generated captions which although not 100% accurate, they're decent. You can toggle them on/off from the settings
