[@mbaharuddindstaba1320]

Thanks a lot bro

[@jordanm169]

Mashallah. May Allah reward Hamza for his efforts and patience with me (ive definitely tested him lol) and all the others he has helped. Top geezer and a true asset to the dawah

[@Abdulaziz_M54]

May Allah make you and all of us steadfast upon Islam, brother Jordan.

[@kaz4845]

Facts 💯

[@HPzFreelance]

Seeing you take the batton and run makes it all the more rewarding. May Allah SWT protect, reward and elevate you all. Ameen

[@umz535]

I Agree Brother Jordan M 100 percent Masha Allah. You guys are a great asset to the Dawah community. Keep up the good work. You guys are touching so many lives Alhamdulillah.

[@kaz4845]

@@Muhammad-bv7sy, right.. Like anyone cares what a nobody like you thinks 😂..

[@mosh71]

I have a korean female friend who has been a Muslim for 5 years. Still hiding from her family for fear. She left Christianity and decided to learn Hindusm, and for that purpose went to Cinema to watch "My name is Khan" thinking she will learn Hindu culture, but what she learned is about Islam. Eventually she became a Muslim for realizing it's the truth.

[@user-qq2yp1cg9u]

سبحان الله العظيم

[@PeaceIsIslaam]

Wow what a great story ma sha Allah may Allah protect her and be by her side yarabb

[@wo1vuso70]

AlhamduliLLah. But the most shocking fact in ur story is that she left Christianity, but could choose Hinduism, which makes even less sense than Christianity

[@user-iq1sl1py1i]

هل هي متزوجه ؟

[@user-lt3wx4rh1z]

As a born muslim I can truly say Hamzah you is a blessing. Such depth of knowledge really is phenomenal.

[@strictlyyoutube6881]

Glad Ben is doing the interviewing, a fantastic move!

[@raheelaali9767]

Your an absolute legend Brother Hamza, I’ve learnt so much from you . I pray The Almighty Allah SWT keeps you steadfast Ameen. Lots of love to dear brother Ben, you rock bro 💙

[@rizekil7928]

Allah is Al Ghofuur Allah is All-forgiving. Alhamdulillah. All praises be to Allah.

[@sisterfleur7523]

Loooove him for the sake of Allah! A true inspiration! May Allah preserve him immensely

[@Omar-jy1gr]

Absolutely agree! He's such a great man!

[@safwanshahriar4108]

Ur a French revert?

[@thedreamville]

“Did they think they’d just say we believe and they won’t be tested?”

[@brianlucena]

I love Hamza for the sake of Allah. A true exemplar

[@sakuram146]

I love Hamza's charismatic personality

[@Seanus32]

Gotta hand it to Hamza. The man gave up a lot, studied really hard and has stuck to his guns. He found his calling. We quite widely differ on subjective Vs objective views of God but variety is the spice of life and all that jazz. Through difference one sees unity. May Allah (swt) reward him for his work.

[@iifsyifa102]

May Allah open your heart and guide you.

[@Aquacrystal78]

May Allah (rab ul Izza) grant you Hidaya and turn your heart towards Islam.

[@Ismail-Yahya]

Akhi Hamza, Wallahi your story had me tearing up @37:37, born Muslims have no idea the struggles people go through for the truth! We love you brother for the sake of Allah, don’t forget you have the Ummah as your family; We watch your videos regularly and enjoy your straight up no nonsense Dawah. In’sha Allah may Allah preserve you and make you a benefit for the English non Muslims brothers and sisters of the UK.

[@junaidbinkibria9403]

Subhan Allah what a tough journey by Hamza. We by born muslims take this precious gift of being born in a muslim family for granted. May Allah guide us all.

[@Irffan-J]

Speaking about oppression on women, in Italy in 1957, a woman wearing a bikini on a beach or in public would be fined. Modern women today just follow what society normalize. Perhaps 200 years from now, society will be happy for you to walk in public stark naked and that would be normalised and they may look back at us and say, poor women in bikinis were oppressed. Look at us and our freedom. 🙄

[@relativelycivilized2786]

People walking naked has already been done. I mean rome greece egyptians indus they all had that. And the cycle continues.

[@siriuskhan]

The amount of the sacrifices brother Hamza has to go through, - or other reverts - may Allah SWT accept all his efforts and keep him steadfast. May Allah SWT open her then gf and specially his daughters heart to the truth! The interview was enlightening but never was boring and at times very funny too. JazakAllah!

[@HussainFahmy]

*_Masha'Allah, an interesting journey to Islam._*

[@mobinurrahman4377]

My favourite brother in dawah scene.may Allah give him right intentions.

[@SoldierOfTheDeen]

May Allah SWT reward brother Hamza abundantly for his wonderful dawah and his beautiful reminders about how Islam is full of benefits and guidance for humanity, and may Allah SWT guide his loved ones.

[@doniaalkasah8939]

[@amania9254]

I have learned much from his about the Da'wah! He's a Force of Truth! He is well Experienced! And he has the Amazing Team/brothers with him, mashallah! So much respect 🙌 to him, his Colleagues, friends, and other Da'eeis ! And of course I will pray for his father, so that Allah SWT may guide him to the right path Islam very soon, Aamin! Truly love brother Hamza's style of Da'wa, mashallah he is Amazing (sometimes gets a bit ..., but he + his team/brothers are one Amazing Da'wa team)!

[@Thedrivebye]

Honestly untill recently I knew nothing about the beauty of the religion I was blessed to be born into. Not untill I heard the stories and the actions of the revert brothers and sisters who had to change their lives, struggle, learn and practise. My faith grew thanks tp these brothers and sisters may Allah bless each and every single one of you.

[@JannahInProgress]

Amazing content :) may Allah give you succes ! From a danish revert 🤲🏻

[@mohammedrahman3714]

Amazing conversation. Its nice to get an insight into the man

[@rawnza9608]

[@TravelwithRia92]

1:17:08 has me dead 😩😩😂 you damn right you’ll never see a Somali woman carrying bags and walking behind her husband 🥴🥴 that would never happen in a million years. Us Somali women are tough Mash’Allah 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

[@ishhhdurrani]

its the opposite in my culture 😂 very common for pashtun women to walk behind her husband

[@Dawahdude0]

Masha Allah excellent job Ben , May ALLAH swt reward you Ameen

[@r.mahmood4494]

"Angel of death can come to you anytime. So prepare yourself before going to next world.Take every day as your last day on earth. You will find yourself doing goods deeds avoiding sins without wasting time. So remember death frequently."

[@AdrianMuslim]

Whose quote?

[@mimmss6556]

Jazakallahu khairan

[@AdrianMuslim]

@Ga Su The fact that you have to come here and tell people this shows you're worried about what will happen to you after death. So deep down you have that fear. We use logic and reasons to know God exists. Then we use logic and reason to know which religion is from that God. And then what that religion teaches is from God and if it says what happens in afterlife, it's truth. It's not imagination. It's called intellectual investigation.

[@markdoughty8780]

Inspiring journey - thanks for the upload.
