I don't think it's a matter of 'negative energy', it's more a matter of controlling your nafs. The biggest battle is with your nafs. As in sihr it is recommended to recite Surah Baqara and Al Imran frequently. A frequent and repetitive good deed/action in Arabic "wird“ (ورد) is most loved by Allah🌼
The evidence is that Allah has prescribed the reading of the Qur'an as a cure for the body and soul. Let's take a closer look at what the medical science/anatomy says: The parasympathetic nervous system is activated by stimulating the vagus nerve (which is a very long nerve; it runs through the neck, branches out towards the ears and into the larynx, extends into the chest cavity and divides into the left and right vagus nerves. Branches go to the heart, lungs, stomach, pancreas, intestines and other organs in the abdominal cavity). Stimulating the vagus has a calming effect on the body, it signals "rest". So if we take a closer look at what Tajweed is actually based on, it is a practical application of using the flow of air in different areas (for example al khayshum (nasal cavity), al jauf (mouth cavity), halq (throat to larynx area)) and a very precise way of positioning the tongue. By regulating your breathing you are actually activating the vagus nerve. In Tajweed you have the so-called Madd rule, which means prolonging the letter, beginning a long verse by inhaling and exhaling air, using idgham air flow vibrations in the nasal cavity, pronouncing certain letters, qalqala, all these have an effect on your vagus nerve. So imagine reading the Qur'an correctly and beautifully, SubhanAllah. The Qur'an is medicine, we just do not see it.
I usually don't comment on videos. But this lecture feels like an answered Dua for guidance from Allah. I saw soo many videos about Manifestation from Muslims online. I was soo confused as to if it's shirk or not cause there are plenty of Muslims online promoting it. Really wished a Scholar would talk about this and clarify things and Allhamdullilah this video is released on RU-vid. Jazakallah khair!
You attracted this comment requesting you take a genuine intellectually/emotionally honest journey through the "playlist" centered around this on "my page" trying to shed light on/ provide a list of video options seemingly related to this in an attempt to give easy access to a list of possible threads for people to use and unite together and figure this out. Peace and love.... If people shared the playlist, came together with others to arrive at a widely agreed upon map of the flat earth, realize capitalism and money systems beget kids starving in the streets and war after war, and so much more..... maybe this [plane]t can finally have: Peace and love...

May Allah protect our Sheikh 🤲. This is a much-needed reminder, especially on the importance of true reliance on Allah alone 💖. Thank you for shedding light on the Law of Attraction and its misconceptions.
Prophet Muhammad (saw)Hadith..."Be watchful of commandments of Allah,and He will preserve you, safeguard His rights and He will be with you,if you beg of Him alone and if you need assistance supplicate to Allah alone and remember if All the people gather to benefit you they will not be able to benefit you accept that which Allah has written against you,the pens had been lifted and the had dried up".
Sheikh, thank you very much. You covered extremely important topic. Nowadays this concept is so popular among people. Me myself was under influence of the videos for while where "successful" people like to teach how to ask universe for something. However, i always felt wrong it contradicts my faith but they explained so well on a degree you may start to believe. It's kind of propaganda that you can see over and over again in particular among motivational speaker. Alhamdullilah, i realized this quite fast. May Allah protect our ummah
MasyaaAllah tabarakAllah. I’ve been thinking & pondering about this subject for over 10 years. May Allah protect, preserve, grant wisdom & knowledge to our sheikh to educate us & grant all muslims & all of humanity understanding, knowledge & wisdom to better ourselves & mould ourselves to become grateful servants of Allah. Amin
JazakAllah Sheikh and team! Absolutely hammered the nail on the head. Annihilation of fallacies with such wisdom and knowledge. Some misconceptions we take easy, not realizing its implications on our faith and lives. V relevant topic addressed, as it is really creeping into the lives of a lot of us. I attended your lecture in Manchester and someone had asked a question on manifestation, and you had answered with the same wisdom. Listened to a lecture on this topic by a brother who has a you tube channel Muslim Highlander. Very insightful as well.
If you find it hard to perform regular prayers, recite this Dua: (Quran 14:40) 🤍 رَبِّ ٱجْعَلْنِى مُقِيمَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِى ۚ رَبَّنَا وَتَقَبَّلْ دُعَآءِ ▫️Rabbij alnee muqeemas Salaati wa min zurriyyatee Rabbanaa wa taqabbal dua. ▫️My Lord, make me an establisher of prayer, and many from my descendants. Our Lord, and accept my supplication.
Thanks a lot for clarifying it. I always had a belief on manifestation and law of attraction, and i used to do this practice in past. May Allah forgive me, you have opened my eyes. There is so little difference manifesting the things from universe or saying goods words only to ourself for just to train our mind, and for just to be optimistic. I was never able to understand that. May Allah shower his blessings on you. Allah saved me from shirk today through this video. You have opened my eyes. Thanks alot.
Great lecture Tabarkallah. We are so much influenced by the western world in such a negative manner that we should be grateful that we have Imams like our Sheikh Assaad who are tackling real contemporary issues our Ummah needs healing from.
So glad that this is being addressed, some muslim content creators seriously spreading evil (practice of shirk) and sugar coating it in islam knowingly or unknowingly and i believe its because they really don’t know who Allah سبحانه وتعالى is and are attached too much to the dunya
thank you so much for this! i've not been educated on this topic enough at all, its definitely something in my generation that has become so normal and a very popular. as a 21 year old, i hope all 16-21 year olds listen to this, we need the knowledge
Allah said in Quran “Be grateful , I will give you more” Means gratitude will help you to get abundance. So in law of attraction is think positive and be grateful you will get more.
May Allah subhana Taa’la guide our hearts with His blessings and mercy, Ameen. JazakAllahu khairan to you, brother Belal Assaad and the team for this video.
Alhamdullillah! A lecture worthy of being listened to... Yes, there are many muslims being misguided by the LOA and Manifestation. Dua is our weapon, but not everyone knows how to use it. The Qadr of Allah is true, yet many do not believe, as they haven't yet accepted it in their hearts and so many muslims are taken up by LOA and Manifestation. It is shirk if only they knew.
Masha Allah tabarakalla sheikh Bilal may Allah s.w.t continue to guide and protect you from all evil and increase your iman and me too alhamdulillah I lean a lot from this charnel ❤❤❤
Assalamualaikum sheikh belal, as a teenager i really appreciate your content. you give detailed lectures about prevalent topics. can u please talk about body image but from the islamic insights. we struggle a lot w peer pressure, comparison, self harm/neglect, depression bcz of the way the elites and evils are profiting off of our insecurities and constantly making us conscious about them, sometimes things we don't even know or think about.
The topic is so important now. My feed is full of videos about it. Content from Joe Dispenza and others that make it sound so scientific but we lack Islamic knowledge to repute it fully. Thank you for explaining it so clearly! When we don’t understand or lack knowledge, it’s so easy to fall into this and apply this to Islam astagfirulla.
Spiritual atheism has completely taken over my FYP and it’s concerning when you see Muslim content creators regurgitating this nonsense. May Allah swt guide us all 🤲🏼
I've been seeing the same thing too and it just doesn't sit right with me. How is it that these "influencers" were able to manifest it all which btw if Allah wills can happen but not to the point where its happening to everyone that we forget Dua'as take time to be answered (like Allah answers them immediately and decides what's best for us) but there is no waiting period or anything of that. Its almost like they found a magic 🪔 and genie just grants them whatever they want 🤷🏻♀️
Finally someone who shares this - It is extremely worrying to see soooo many videos that feel the need to speak about manifesting. Why do we need to talk about this. If it was necessary, it would have been part of our religion. It comes from New Age spirituality.
Beautiful lesson. I have encountered plenty of women who say they’re manifesting yet the actions they take, what they’re actually doing is practicing secret arts. May Allah (swt) continue to guide & protect us all. Again beautiful lecture… jazakallah Khier
"Wahdat al-Wujood (Unity of Being) is not the same as pantheism, though it is sometimes mistakenly compared to it. Pantheism asserts that God and the universe are identical, essentially equating all existence with God. In contrast, Wahdat al-Wujood is a metaphysical and mystical concept that originates from Sufi thought, particularly associated with the works of Hazrat Ibn Arabi. It posits that there is only one true existence (God), and everything else exists as a manifestation or reflection of that single reality. However, the distinct line is that Wahdat al-Wujood still maintains a distinction between the Creator (God) and creation, even though creation is dependent on and reflects the divine reality."
May Allah reward you my brother, there’s a lot of misunderstanding and misinformation about this. I know without a shadow of doubt that There is no god except Allah Who is alone without partners, associates, or children and Muhammad is the last prophet and Messenger ( may peace and blessings be upon him and his family and companions). I also know that everything in this creation is a reflection of all of Allah’s Attributes, a reflection is no where near the True reality. Allah is one and everything in creation is interdependent reflecting that Oneness of Allah
@@generalalim1615 lolll i had ChatGpt write it up as i didn't feel like explaining it and it did a good job. Seriously though, i do believe Wahdat Al Wujood is one of the most misunderstood topics in our community. most people constantly comparing into to Islamic pantheism
Dear sheikh ustadh Belal Assaad ,I ask the almighty Allah to reward you for all your dedication to the community and younger generation. I have been on your videos on you tube since i lost my brother 4 months ago,Allah yerhamo and your loved ones yarab ameen. I would just like to take the time to ay im one of your biggest fans and you have taught me so much, you have motivated me to become closer to Allah and Allah swa sent you to my family and I. I really do hope to attend one of your lectures one day inshallah. warm regards your sister Farrah
This is very beneficial. These things are very hyped right now. It can cause a younger Muslim to be misunderstood about this. People nowadays want peace. Maybe they neglected the Islamic rules and rituals by doing those things.
What a deep analysis on this growing issue, your words reflected how much you have researched on this topic. I myself was very very confused due to these growing fallacies which seem nothing like shirk but are totally bafoonery and time waste and can unknowingly deprive one of faith, faith in Allah. May Allah guide us All Aamin Jazaak Allah sheikh
Thankyou for bringing this topic bcs our young generation need this in order to prevent us from doing shirk. Im so grateful that Allah send you to us because your lecture always up to date with whats trendy nowadays and explain it in islam perspective so we dont get lost
This is an excellent topic. It is currently very popular, and the younger generation, who are more technologically inclined, are particularly drawn to it. They believe that it does not conflict with Islamic teachings. Jazakallah
Sheikh please do not judge or belittle people who have cut off family who have genuinely physically/ mentally harmed someone. Be grateful you haven't experienced this kind of pain of loss while they are still alive. Otherwise good talk
I appreciate this discussion from an Islamic perspective. I would say one thing though, that there is a slightly different school of thought based on the Law of Assumption/Belief and the concept of the Bridge of incidents (which can have seemingly negative things but are interpreted with patience as one knows The End will eventually be Good) which is base on Biblical Scripture re-interpreted by Neville Goddard (and some others). He emphasised God is known through our personal consciousness/Awareness of Him and it is only His power that gives and takes in our world. He is as we think of Him (which we have in Islam). And we must purify our perception of any and all external causes, or other sources of power (like astrology, Tarot), which we also have in Islam (shirk). The ultimate goal of this School of thought is not the manifesting itself but the recognition of the Oneness of God and Him being the only source of power/manifestation in the world and in our personal life and to trust Him and Him alone. From an Islamic perspective this is the first part of the Shahada, tawheed, but also develops the concepts of taqwa, tawakkul and yaqeen. But as Neville Goddard taught from the Bible it's a Christian perspective and so they miss the second part of the Shahada: Mohammed rasul Allah. Which gives us the practises we should follow to purify and elevate our souls in this life and the akhira.... I mention this as I think there are some benefits to having a discussion on the Law of Assumption/Belief and especially Neville Goddard, from an Islamic perspective, rather than the law of attraction. Jzk 🙏.
Dear brothers and sisters, the law of attraction is from Shaytan. We cannot manifest anything but rather it is Allah who has power on all things and He is the One who makes things happen. The law of attraction is shirk, demonic and a dangerous practice. Same for Yoga, it is a pagan practice and it is spiritual meaning you cannot separate the exercising aspect from the spiritual one. This too is very dangerous. Concepts like healing, energy, visualization, affirmations, meditation, twin flame, soulmates etc are all based on a false ideology which is new age which is modern day shirk. It seems harmless and positive but is a doorway to shirk and hence demonic influence; + it is everywhere and we are in a time of great fitna. Hold onto your aqida. May Allah guide us.
Thank you so much for this information Sir. I was thinking about this topic and Islam and I couldn’t ask anyone because I didn’t know if they were to laugh at me. Thank you very, very much.
Law of attraction worked for me though. I had a burning desire to marry a British lawyer and I did. Alhamdullellah I’m so grateful to Allah. Like this anything I ask Allah with passion he give it to me so law of attraction is true. There is no ayat and hadith that it’s haram or wrong. It works
What about meditation? You focus there on your breath so you become more present, calm & you doesnt get easily influenced by your negative thougts. Is mediataion therefore allowed if you of course dont believe in the universum & magical power but it helps strengthen your mindset?
@@northeastsouthwest1Properly breathing throughout salah will make us more focused and overall it will be a good quality salah. When we exercise with proper breathing the exercise has more benefits. When we eat and breathe slowly, the food digests better. Unfortunately, many uf us are not breathing the way our body needs us to breathe. Our body is amanah from Allah and we need to take care of it. Breathing correctly is one of them.
performing salah and reading quran is the best way to relax and forget the dunya and focus on Allah. just sitting there and doing nothing… is only wasting time
@@tisch9233 “Meditation is a practice that involves focusing or clearing your mind using a combination of mental and physical techniques”. Nothing about that is wasting time. You can pray, do dhikr etc and still meditate. It’s the same as stretching or doing exercise. Just a way to calm down
JazakAllah Khairan for sharing this. I have been seeing many videos appear by Muslims on manifestation and it is sooo worrying astagfirullah. I was hoping someone would share about this. Even the comment sections in those videos are all praising the influencers for speaking about it and explaining how to do it. Astagfirullah. Also please be aware, I have seen many weird videos pop up as well, which are made by AI (so a computerised voice and AI type of images) sharing this which they claim are Islamic, but they are not!! Again, many Muslims comment on these videos with all praise etc. some videos tell Muslims to believe that Angels guide them (this is from new age) and that if you feel an unseen thing touch you or call your name, that this is from Angels. Astagfirullah. Maybe you can share about this as well.
