As a born Hindu and having studied Hindu scriptures for over 46 years, I find an equal sense of respect and excitement listening to Ghamidisaheb. A great person with a deep understanding of humanity and universal brotherhood. What a humility Ghamidisaheb has! I listen to him regularly to sharpen my linguistic skills in Urdu and learn about the Quran with proper and correct interpretation. May God bless him with a very long life full of health.

I suggest that once you post any video of Muhtaram Ghamidi Sahab of this sort that you make a list of the 'Topics' discussed in the Video and share them with their 'Start-End Timings' in the comments section. I hope and believe that 'Some' people will certainly find it more beneficial and it would be easier for people to comeback and inspect the response given by Javaid Sahab again. Thank You for sharing this video.

[@azhariqbal1390]

I can't resist respecting and saluting Mr. Javed Ahmed Ghamdi. He is a true SCHOLAR, an extremely rare breed particularly in the present times. May Allah bless him with long and healthy life to continue serving Allah by spreading His word in the correct perspective (Aameen)

shariq hameed What is Haram . What is the definition of Haram do you know. I want to know. I know some sects keep mumbling this is Haram and that is Bidaa .Such are the ones who can't explain what is right or wrong . They are the ones who want to impose their thinking upon others by trying these techniques that has no sense.

[@ansarali7246]

+humaira ali Javed ghamidi is sensible. but i disagree with his thinking about beard. Because beard is mandatory in islam. Prophet Muhammad very clearly ordered all of us in Hadith "Grow beard and cut the mustache"...So disagreed with this point...!

[@garahaman]

+Ansar Ali Sahib, Please let me know in the light of proper evidence, does almost all the Sahaba-e-ikram had beard (without an exception)? I have asked this question to many ulma-e-ikram before, but could not get a satisfactory answer. Please help me out for my own 'islah'. Jazakallahu Khairan.

The clarity of the message makes you look at all the religion and their customs with a circumspect and objective view. Like it. His message about distinction between knowledge and Emotion sums up his grasp on the understanding about religion, human capabilities etc. For some points, I do need to hold the queries like interest on consumable items.

Ghamidi says the Quran tells us about the different eras dominated by different nations of the sons of Noah. Which verses of the Quran say that? I think he meant "The Bible" and not "The Quran"

[@khansherani]

Moby Inayet there is a aayat in quran that says about yazooz majooj “Until, when Ya’jooj and Ma’jooj are let loose (from their barrier), and they swiftly swarm from every mound. And the true promise (Day of Resurrection) shall draw near (to fulfillment)…” [Surah al-Anbiyaa:96-97]

[@stahir80]

Moby Inayet Salam Moby Inayat - Thanks for posting your question, please take a look at following response (interpretation) re. Gog and Magog & related verses in Quran. www.javedahmadghamidi.com/renaissance/view/your-questions-answered96 If you need further clarification, please write to Al-Mawrid online Query service (response time is ~ 48 hours): www.al-mawrid.org/index.php/questions/ask -------------------- Question: Who are Ya'juj and Ma'juj (Gog and Magog) in the context of Qur'an? Are they a sign of the Day of Judgement? According to the Bible, the prophet Noah (sws) had three children. Shem, Ham and Japheth. Gog and Magog (Ya'juj and Ma'juj) are the children of Japheth: Noah's sons who came out of the ark were Sham, Ham and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan. These were the three sons of Noah, and from them came the people who were scattered over the earth. (Gn 9:18) The sons of Japheth are Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech and Tiras. (Gn 10:2) Central Asia and Russia was the homeland of Gog and Magog: The word of the Lord came to me: Son of man set your face against Gog of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Rush, Meshech and Tubal. (Ez 38:1) Rush, Meshech and Tubal are present day Russia, Moscow and Tubalsac. From Central Asia the tribes of Gog and Magog in ancient times migrated to Europe and later on to Australia and America. Almost all the people of the contemporary Christian world of today are the descendants of Gog and Magog. In the background of these historical facts, let us view the two verses in which Gog and Magog are mentioned in the Qur'an. The first of these occurs in Surah Kahaf: Then he [Zu'l-Qarnayn] prepared for a campaign until he reached the tract between two mountains. He found beneath them a people who scarcely understood a word. They said: O Zu'l-Qarnayn! the Gog and Magog [people] do spread mischief on earth. Shall we then render you tribute in order that you may erect a barrier between us and them. (18:94) This verse points out a great feat of king Zu'l-Qarnayn who lived somewhere in 6th century BC. The tribes of Gog and Magog used to attack Iran through Turkey as well as the through the tracts of Caucasia. King Zu'l-Qarnayn in order to check the subversive activities of Gog and Magog built a huge iron barrier which survives to this day. The Qur'an says that in spite of this outstanding feat, the king remained a humble servant of Allah and was never overcome with pride and vanity. The second verse occurs in Surah Ambiya: Until when the Gog and Magog [people] are let loose and they swiftly swarm from every hill. (21:97) The context of this verse shows that near the Day of Judgement, the Gog and Magog people will launch a great offensive upon mankind and it will continue till the advent of that great day. Consequently, their rise can be construed to mean that the Day of Judgement will emerge out of the great upheaval created by them. The Bible tells us that the rise of the Gog and Magog people will begin one thousand years after the Prophet (sws): When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations -- Gog and Magog -- in the four corners of the earth to gather them for battle. In number they will be like the sand on the seashore. They will march across the breadth of the earth and surround the beloved city of Allah (Rev 20:7-9) If this statement is true, then a thousand years have already passed since the Prophet (sws) left us. The Gog and Magog of today (the Christian civilization) are now passing through their zenith. Their offensive, it seems, has already started. When this offensive reaches its pinnacle is something only Allah knows. For with Him only lies the knowledge of 'the hour'. -------------------- Dr. Shabbir in his response mentioned "He believes in the mythical Great Flood destroying the WHOLE PLANET". This IMHO is misrepresentation (or misunderstanding) of Ghamidi sb's PoV. Many Thanks,

[@mobyinayet5383]

Sohail Sarwar Tahir Dear Brother. Thanks for confirming my point. Details of Noah's sons are in the Bible and not in the Quran. Ghamidi Sb probably made a mistake, but that is okay. We are all humans.

[@khansherani]

Moby Inayet referring to bible is not a mistake...many scholars use israeeli rawayat...and earlier books that are our common heritage should be looked always in light of quran

[@stahir80]
