Mashallah, My Prophet (s.w) is merciful to all.❤❤❤❤❤

[@MultiAmmar2000]

Honestly, how does the story even make sense when God says about the prophet: "And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds."?

[@journeywithmycoffee7967]

Thank you for the clarification. May Allah bless you.😊

Why should there be a war in first place??plz explain..

[@Thaqlain]

Covered in the previous episodes.

[@zdenkopecirep2812]

How many Yews live today in Medina. Why dont nobody show that trentch, and pove that there is less or more than 500 bodies.....

[@Thaqlain]

The current rulers of Hijaz and Najd have extremely strong ties to jews. They should definitely explore this.

[@PierrickYAH]

Hmm... Convincing.

[@Deepaksharma-uf1ns]

I do trust in God..but not religion. Because I don’t need to defend any evil deeds like this…dude , god really don’t need a messenger . And do u think god knows only arab language?

[@Thaqlain]

God doesn't need messenger. It is us who needs so we can know how does God want us to spend our lives. Who who told you God only knows Arabic language?

[@Deepaksharma-uf1ns]

@@Thaqlain true.That was my point. God dont need a messenger and he never chose any........It was humans chose a messenger 🤣

[@Thaqlain]

We never said that God never chose messengers. As it is Allah who sends them with his message, it is He who chooses them.

[@Deepaksharma-uf1ns]

@@Thaqlain with this new culture, new technology , new way of living ..compared to people who travelled in camels now travelling in vehicles....GoD should send a new messenger now, ryt? to teach how to spend our lives in this new civilised era

[@Thaqlain]

The Earth is never empty of a divine representative. Hence, the reason we have Imams of Ahlulbayt who guide us with the interpretation of God's final message.

[@shankhan-yg1tt]

Such a peaceful religion😂

[@francisiva8212]

Without lies....Islam dies......

[@Thaqlain]

An accusation requires proof :)

[@truthislogical]

Respected Sir why were the womens and children not spared?

[@Thaqlain]

Who said women and children were not spared?

[@truthislogical]

@@Thaqlain weren't they sold?

[@Thaqlain]

We don't find any such narration in the School of Ahlulbayt. We have, however, covered in a separate episode why Islam continues slavery while changing its norms.

[@truthislogical]

@@Thaqlain ok thank you for giving me your valuable time 🙏🏻

[@Setbackfor]

Btw modern Jews are not related to those Yemeni, khaleeji arab jews.

[@LogicAwakning-gv3ez]

Taqiya 😂

[@Thaqlain]

And do you know what what Taqiyya is?

[@user-dg6gr1sp6s]

I dont believe you

[@mohsinsyed9253]

Then dont watch

[@babotobati2745]

it's true story according shia and sunny resources

[@Thaqlain]

No story is true if it goes against the fundamentals of Islam.

[@babotobati2745]

@@Thaqlain The witnesses who reported the incident are honest and noble men according to Islamic standards. Denying the occurrence of the incident means accusing these men of lying, which undermines their credibility in conveying the words of Prophet Muhammad and others. Imam Ahmad: Hujayn and Yunus narrated to us, they said: Al-Laith bin Saad narrated to us, from Abu Az-Zubair, from Jabir bin Abdullah that he said: Saad bin Muadh was hit during the Battle of the Trench, so they cut his vein. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) cauterized it with fire, but his hand swelled, so he cauterized it again, and his hand swelled again, so he cauterized it once more. When he saw that, he said: "O Allah, do not take my soul until You have satisfied my eyes by avenging the Qurayzah tribe." He held his vein and not a single drop fell until they passed the judgment on Saad. The Prophet (peace be upon him) sent for him and he ruled that their men be killed, and their women and children be taken as captives, to be used by the Muslims. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "You have judged according to the decree of Allah." They were four hundred in number, and when he finished killing them, his vein burst and he died. This was narrated by At-Tirmidhi and An-Nasai from Qutaibah, from Al-Laith. At-Tirmidhi said: Hasan Sahih. (mean it's a good source of Hadith)

[@Thaqlain]

That's not how the science of Hadith operates. Sometimes, one person in the chain is corrupt or untrustworthy. Sometimes, the narration is forged/tempered. There is an entire science of hadith, which examines a hadith based on its chain and content.

[@leel69540]

6:50. "Islam does not kill people that are innocent or have played a role in..." A peaceful religion its claimed.

[@Thaqlain]

sorry we were not able to understand your point.

[@valleyofgold]

Avec tous mes respects, je pense que vous devriez quitter l'Islam si vous arrivez à réfléchir aussi bien, car vous conscience a du mal à accepter cela alors que ce massacre a bien eu lieu cher Iman. C'est compliqué parceque en tand qu'humain vous vous dîtes c'est vraiment pas bien ce massacre et en même comment pouvez-vous penser que le (prophète) a été injuste autrement dit vous n'êtes plus musulman et que vous doutez. J'avoue que c'est pas facile pour vous. Reniez sa foi n'est pas évident du tout.

[@Thaqlain]

If we listen to something while we have already decided what we wish to hear, we are not listening :)

[@user-dg6gr1sp6s]

You youst admit that they know there will bé killed😂😂😂😂if you lié dont get busted..

[@ahmedharajli189]

What?

[@Setbackfor]

Wow Shia islam is good but the only problem is u worship Ali , Hussain etc.

[@Thaqlain]

Which is an impression given to you by some of your scholars so you stay away from the School of Ahlulbayt. No shia can even think of worshipping Imam Ali or Imam Hussain 🙂

[@Know_Truth.75]

It is a totally fake and unislamic explanation given by this Imam because Islam will be explained by the reference of the Qur'an and Hadit that was absent in his lecture. Prophet did so unmerciful things to them that Muslims are now shameful also. This is the reason this Imam presented his mindmade arguments that are not in Islamic history.

[@Thaqlain]

Please share the reference in the Quran about this alleged massacre.

[@Know_Truth.75]

@Thaqlain Muslims, Hazrat Imam, are not reached in a common conclusion that Hadits are excluded from Islam. So why are you looking for references to me just only from Qur'an, while Islam is composed of Qur'an, Hadits, Cirat and Fatowa, etc? Banu Quraiza's Massacre is a history written by Muslim writers. You believe it also. So now, why do you twist it because you're shameful on what your prophet did? Are you Ahale Qur'an follower?

[@Thaqlain]

Nope. What we do follow is that if the massacre was such a great extent as some Muslim historians have pointed out, why is there not even slight mention of it in the Holy Quran. Considering the fact that such matters from the life of the Prophet are always discussed in the Quran.
