The more Europeans turn away from Christ and towards Muhammad, the more the Zionists are rejoicing. Or to anything really, that gets the world away from the Son of God, Saviour of the world. We are undaunted. Jesus warned us that exactly all this would happen before his return. The Great Falling Away when mankind would become ashamed of their faith in Christ. This is only: The Beginning of Sorrows. The time of travail. As when a woman is in birth pangs before the child is born. When men and women and brothers and sisters and parents and children will betray one another because of the corruption of the church and consequent infiltration of the church by false teachers and worldly doctrines. It will only get worse from here on until Christ returns to rescue God's last remaining children on Earth. But thankfully He has promised to be with us in Spirit all the way to the very end as long as we keep our hearts set on Him through prayer and obedience and thankfulness even at the threat of punishment for our faith. Even capital punishment. Mmm. So we have nought to fear as long as we keep our spiritual eyes on Jesus who walks upon the sea unperturbed by the wind and waves all around. Doing so, we too will walk with him no matter the very stars fall from heaven or the mountains be cast into the midst of the sea. For this world is nothing essentially. Heaven is everything and forever. We who have God's very Spirit dwelling in our souls know where we have eternity. We have received freely and we must share our gifts freely with every soul who is hungry for the love God in their soul. And equally we must, absolutely must warn the lost sheep. Even the rebellious ones. ""But be thou faithful even through death itself and I will give thee a crown of eternal life, when I greet thee in Heaven saying: --Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord."" (JESUS WHO WENT BEFORE US IN SACRIFICE TO SHOW US HOW HE WANTS US TO BE WHEN THEY DO TO US WHAT THEY DID TO HIM.) ""Is the servant greater than his Lord? If they have called me a demonic liar how could they call you differently? And if they have persecuted me will they not persecute you who follow in my footsteps? Beware of false prophets that come to you like gentle sheep. Behold, they are ravenous wolves within their souls. But remain ye all in my love and my love will remain in you."" (JESUS)

As an Uzbekistani, i can fully testify to the truthfulness of the reality of Islamic revival in Uzbekistan post Soviet and Karimov regimes….Islam is back among Uzbeks with full its full swing….

[@user-gy4ip2ei6l]

those uzbeks are children of israel and they are same blood as pashtun (most pashtuns are not afghans just like uzbeks and tajiks, most are infiltrating country, if u are afghan u are from israel). I'm from northern afghanistan, bukhara used to be part of talqan. they look jewish to. pashtuns not all, ones that survived are children of israel. Muhammad ﷺ and torah and bible said, 70 percent will die, 1/3 rd will remain and bring Islam to world , conquering it by saving it. bc these people i was born in afghanistan and I'm from north. they do not compromise. all those civil wars in tajikstan, uzbekistan anfghanistan is gog and magog people, the jews against muslims(these gog and magog people are askhenaz and majuj, barrier broke. control financial system ). Uzbekistan used to be called 'Islamic emirate uzbekistan'. Notice they are exterminating north of afghanistan, bc surrounding countries are all pagan, khorasan used to be greater bigger. ZECHARIAH 13:7-"Awake sword against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me(Taliban/Afghans/uzbek/tajik who are from bani israel, soviet then American invasion is end of world bc they are exterminations killing ppl based on genes which reflects on appearance of being from israel, they 'trust' the science! )!” declares the LORD Almighty. “Strike the shepherd, the sheep(Afghans) scattered, and I will turn my hand against the little ones(dead babies).And in all land, declares the LORD,2/3rd will be alive, but a third will be left in it." ZECHARIAH 13:8-““Two parts(70% of afgans are dead) in it will be cut off and perish, But the third will be left alive.” ZECHARIAH 13:9-“This third(Islamic Emirate) I will bring through the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘These(Taliban) are My people,’ and they will say, ‘The LORD is our God.’ ” Khalid Bin Madan-“ If you see a column of FIRE from the East, in the month of Ramadan, in the sky, get food as much as you can, for it is (going to be) a year of starvation (famine).”(TABARANI) خالد بن معدان قال إذا رأيتم عمودا من نار من قبل المشرق في شهر رمضان في السماء فأعدوا من الطعام ما استطعتم فإنها سنة جوع Khaded Bin Madan said: “An Aya (sign) which is a column of fire rising from the East will appear that all people of the World will be able see. Whoever is present (alive) should arrange for his family food supply for one year.”(HAMMAD) إنه ستبدوا آية عمودا من نار يطلع من قبل المشرق يراه أهل الأرض كلهم فمن أدرك ذلك فليعد لأهله طعام سنة Ali bin Abdullah bin Abbas said: "The Mahdi will not emerge until the Sun rises as a sign(from west, gold will come out of ground, if u didn't convert or repent or do charity or good won't matter anymore).” (Al-Baihaqi, Al-Haakim, Al-Harbi, AsSuyuti, Nuaim bin Hammad's Kitab Al-Fitan, Ibn Hajar al-Haythami's book Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntazar, p. 47, Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi's book Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir al-Zaman, p. 33 ) عن علي بن عبد الله بن عباس قال لا يخرج المهدي حتى تطلع الشمس آية 6:20-“Those to whom We have given the Scripture recognize it (Afghans are israelites)as they recognize their sons. Those who will lose themselves [in the Hereafter] do not believe.” ۘ ََُُّْٰٰ ◌ٱلِذیَن َءاتَْینَُھُمٱلِكتَ َبیَْعِرفونَۥھُ َكَمایَْعِرفوَنأْبنَآَءُھُم ٱل َِّذیَن َخِسُرٓو۟اأَنفَُسُھْمفَُھْمَلایُْؤِمنُوَن Muhammad ﷺ "The remaining one-third(rest of Afghans are dead) will gain victory, until, under the leadership of Imam Mehdi, they will fight against Kufr (non-believers). 61:14-“JESUS ﷺ SAID: ‘WHO WILL STAND UP WITH ME FOR GOD[DO JIHAD AGAINST WORLD!]?’” قَالَ عِيسَى ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ لِلْحَوَارِيِّۦنَ مَنْ أَنصَارِىٓ إِلَى ٱللَّ 61:14-“A PART OF ISRAEL BELIEVED(AFGHANS/TALIBAN)” فَـَٔامَنَت طَّآئِفَةٌ مِّنۢ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ 61:14“THOSE BELIEVERS(AFGHANS) WILL ALWAYS DEFEAT THEIR ENEMIES!” فَأَيَّدْنَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ عَلَىٰ عَدُوِّهِمْ فَأَصْبَحُوا۟ ظَٰهِرِينَ MUHAMMAD ﷺ -“A GROUP(ISRAELITES) FROM MY UMMAH WILL FIGHT FROM TALQAN l(my birthplace ) AND ITS AREA(AFGHANISTAN) BEING VICTORIOUS FOR TRUTH!” لا تزال طائفة من أمتي يقاتلون وعلى أبواب الطالقان وما حولها ظاهرين على الحق Matthew 24:9“Then they will deliver you(Afghans) over to be persecuted and killed, and you(Afghans) will be hated by all nations because of My name.” JOHN 16:2-“They will put you out of the synagogues(like banning me from mosques, criminal trespasses?); yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service.” JOHN 16:2-"the time is coming that whoever kills you(Afghans are being killed WORLDWIDE MY WHOLE FAMILY IS ALMOST DEAD FOR THEIR PIETY)will think that he offers God service.” JOHN 16:2-“[JEsus ﷺ said]-The time is coming that whoever kills youwill think that he offers God service.”(ALMOST MY ENTIRE FAMILY IS DEAD! THE REST ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GET MARRIED OR HAVE KIDS, 70% OF ACTUAL AFGHAN POPULATION IS IN GRAVE THAT IS CHRISTIANITY/SHIA/DEMOCRACY AT WORK!) Muhammad ﷺ “The Mahdi is from my descendants, will be 40 years old, his face is like star shining & a black spot would be on his cheek. He would be wearing two qutwani cloaks (Jewish tallit the afghans for thousands of years still wear today). He appears exactly as a person from the Children of Israel (Taliban!/ Afghans).”(TABARANI) قال: المهدي من ولدي, ابن أربعين سنة, كأن وجهه كوكب دري, في خده الأيمن خال أسود, عليه عباءتان قطوانيتان, كأنه من رجال بني إسرائيل Muhammad ﷺ-“Black Flags will come from Khorasan(Afghanistan), nothing shall turn them back until they are planted in Jerusalem."(TIRMIDI) تَخْرُجُ مِنْ خُرَاسَانَ رَايَاتٌ سُودٌ لاَ يَرُدُّهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى تُنْصَبَ بِإِيلِيَاءَ

Dear Mohammed (Host), Assalamu Alaikum. This is the first time I am watching an interview on your show. As an ardent follower of Shaykh Abdul Hakim Murad (AHM) for over two decades, this interview popped on my KZbin feed. You have done an outstading job interviewing this gem and genius of a person. Perhaps, I will rate it as one the top three interviews of AHM. Your questions were probing and wide ranging; you gave the space and the time to your interviewee to respond in detail and bring out the delicate nuances. Your gentle and respectful interaction with the interviewee is reflectve of beautiful islamic adab (I contrast this with the rudeness of many interviewers in the west, where I live) . May Allah (swt) grant you success in this endeavor you have undertaken. I think your show is a much needed one : expose people outside of Saudi to real people in Saudi without going through the propaganda channel. It is also needed for exposing Saudis to outside spiritual and intelelctual giants like AHM and others. I hope you will bring in people who are sincerely and constructively critical of some of the aspects of Saudi society and some of the harmful cultural elements it is importing from thd west blindly (e.g., Halloween, which is not practiced in the US by many Christians). I hope the authorities will give you the sapce to engage in such a self criticism. After all, self-criticism is an integral and essential part of normative Islam and is healthy at the individual and collective level. I pray for your success. All the best. Regards,

[@TheMoShowPod]

Thank you very much for your lovely feedback 🙏🙏

[@snakejuce]

Agreed, wholeheartedly

[@pellaxestorba4836]

You seem to be under the impression that Western conversation and deliberation is something it never was. Western conversation/ deliberation/ philosophical discussion etc is the highest quality of public interaction you will ever get anywhere in history. Muslim Easterners are only recently learning it from the Christian West. It's best to not conflate CNN, BBC, FOX etc television news debates with anything Western. Those television and social media channels are owned by people who came here from the Orient. And it branches into the dear unwitting public. But perhaps you need to remember how things are like in the courts of Sharia and what has become of London's Speakers' Corner and most of all just who has caused it? Remember, true philosophy is just as much about sincerity as form. Truthfulness is the heart of Western conversation. Truth is impossible with Tq. Only by truth and mercy is iniquity finally purged. That is precisely why Muslims prefer to live amongst Westerners and Christians more than with other Muslims. The truth is always revealed. Every tree is known by its fruit.

[@pellaxestorba4836]

Christian Westerners are kinder and more godly than the Muslims. Thus God the Father is revealed in God the Son and through his sons.

Wow what an interview Abdal Hakim Murad was phenomenal “the eternal boy, we never really grow up nowadays” this spoke volumes, jarring to hear though nonetheless that this has become the reality in today’s day.

[@user-ur4wu4nc8g]

First-time I get to know the channel and the guest, 100% positive and appreciative comments... mashallah, brilliant

[@kausamsalam8543]

Glad I learned from this talk, Alhumdullilah. Still I haven’t yet read Imam Murad’s books yet-but plan on In’sha’Allah. Jzk “There’s a lack of seriousness in…culture.” So true-what a gift of thought. (If you’re listening, dear young co-chai-maker that we made for blessed-you-know-who, this is your opportunity to go back to Allah to fill your life with Mercy). Some have said the newer generations have apathy, but once you listen to Imam Murad and the brother here, you will know the treasures that we discussed, In’sha’Allah).❤️🌹❤️

In the breaking of dawn The passing of the night The rising of the Sun And the hymming of sparrows I saw you Allah In the drops of rain The sprouting of seeds The blooming of the rose And the scents of Spring I saw you Allah In the union of marriage The signs of conception The endurance of a mother And the birth of a child I saw you Allah In the play of the toddler The passions of youth The dedication of a father And the shield of morality I saw you Allah In the trials of life The soreness of the heart The weakness of limbs And the consolement from prayer I saw you Allah In the leaving of the day The glory of the moon In the final breath And the tears of the family I saw you Allah In the crowing of the cockeral The lamenting of the dogs The harkening of the blackbird The silence of the wind And the call to salaah I saw you Allah As I overheard the compelling warning "O mankind hasten towards good Lest death soon overtakes you"

That's beautiful. Would you be willing to share the source, please?

[@khalilahmedesat5098]

Your post reminds me of the حِكمَة of Ibn Ata'illah RA & a du'a of Sheikh ibn Arabi RA below. May i post this on a blog I to which subscribe? If you agree, I will obviously cite you as the source, so the name under whihc you would wish tit to be published would be helpful. Also, there appears to be a typo in line 4 of your poem, and I am not sure if it is supposed to read "And the HYMNING of sparrows" or "And the HUMMING of sparrows". Hikam 16 of Ibn Ata'illah: كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شُيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ الَّذِي أَظْهَرَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ! since He is the one who manifests everything (adh-dhahara kulla shay’)! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ الَّذِي ظَهَرَ بِكُلِّ شيَءٍ! since He is the one who is manifest through everything (dhahara bi-kulli shay’)! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ الَّذِي ظَهَرَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ! since He is the one who is manifest in everything (dhahara fi kulli shay’)! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ الَّذِي ظَهَرَ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ! since He is the Manifest to everything (adh-dhaharah li‐kulli shay’)! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ الظَّاهِرُ قَبْلَ وُجُودِ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ! since He was the Manifest (adh‐dhaahir) before the existence of anything (qabla wujood kulli shay’)! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ أَظْهَرُ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ! since He is more manifest than anything (Adh’haru min kulli shay’)! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ الْوَاحِدُ الَّذِي لَيْسَ مَعَهُ شَيْءٍ! since He is the One (al-Waahid) alongside of whom there is nothing! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَهُوَ أَقرْبُ إليَكَ مِن كُلِّ شَيْءٍ! since He is nearer to you than anything else! كَيْفَ يُتَصَوَّرُ أَنْ يَحْجُبَهُ شَيْءٌ How can it be conceived that something veils Him, وَلَولَاهُ لَـمَا كَانَ وُجودُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ! for were it not for Him, then no thing would have been manifest! يَا عَجَبًا كَيْفَ يَظْهَرُ الْوُجُودُ فِي الْعَدَمِ! It is wondrous [indeed] that Being (al‐Wujood) has been manifested in non-being (al-‘adam)! أَمْ كَيْفَ يَثْبُتُ الْحَادِثُ مَعَ مَنْ لَهُ وَصْفُ الْقِدَمِ! And how the contingent (al-haadith) has been established alongside of Him who [Alone] possesses the attribute of Eternity (wasf al-qidam)! Ibn Arabi RA:  In الْحِزبِ اَلْأَوْرادُ الْأُسْبُوعِيَّةُ لِمَوَلَاَنَا الشَّيْخْ مُحْيِي الدِّينِ بِنْ عَرَبِيِّ قَدَّسَ اللهُ سِرُّهُ of Sunday AM وَ"اَلْـحَمْدُ الِلّٰهِ" مُظْهِرِ كُلِّ مَوْجُودٍ 2 Praise be to Allah, the manifester of every existent! وَاحِدٌ اَحَدٌ عَلَى مَا كَانَ عَلَيهِ قَبْلَ حُدُوثِ الْـحُدُوثِ 8 One, Unique, He is as He has [always] been [as He Was before the occurrence of occurrence] مَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ قَبْلَ حُرُوفِ الْـحُدُودِ before the letters of limitation! لَهُ فِي كُلِّ شَىْءٍ أٰيَةٌ تَدُلُّ عَلَى أَنَّهُ وَاحِدٌ مَوْجُودٌ 11 He has in every thing a Sign, pointing to the fact that He is One Existent. مَعْبُودٌ بَاطِنٌ بِالْأَحَدِيَّةِ ظَاهِرِ بِالْوَحْدَانِيَّةِ 32 [He is] Inward in Uniqueness and Outward in Oneness. وَعَنَّهُ وَبِهِ كَوْنُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَلَا شَيْءَ From Him and through Him is the existence of everything; so there is no thing. إِذِ الشَّيْءُ لِذَاتِهِ بِالْـحَقِيقَةِ مَعْدُومٌ مَفْقُودٌ If there is a thing, in realty, it is devoid and bereft of existence.

[@Onlyhuman1972]

Sh.Abdul Hakim Murad is articulate and knowledgeable ma shaa Allah. I pray the show focuses more on international and religious content rather than weak contents like film industry or yoga and things that are not really very beneficial to Muslim audiences.

[@rosiebegum225]

Hakim is always always always a pleasure to listen to regardless of what he is talking about or where however I’d like to send a big big big congrats and thanks to the host for doing everything properly and finding such great questions to ask. May Allah subhanehu ve Teala be pleased with both of you.

According to Muslim historians Muhamnad was the servant of a rich old widow. Later he married her and started Islam. He used to raid caravans and villages of non muslims and capture their wealth and make them slaves He made slavery legal in Islam and allowed muslim men to have sex with their female slaves He allowed muslim men to marry 4 wives and get 72 virginsbin heaven. He also married a six year old girl and consumated the marriage when she was nine. He asked his own adopted son to divorce his wife and married her. No person would never resowct such a man and have resoect for such a religion.
