Hello Belal, I very much enjoy your videos, I am a woman in Melbourne who grew up Christian but since last year have felt drawn to Islam and your messages. Was with friends at the rally today, their son is very drawn to Islam and I was able to recommend your videos 😊 thank you for your videos, and also you have great taste in pastries (Mounas sweets 😋)

Islam is light. That is all the Hamas is living in tunnels, and dying and running like a rat.

[@fadumogeesood2826]

When ever I heard Qaza and the suffering of Palestine, I remembered what Nabi Mohamed SCW went through in the three years of Macca. My heart hurts so much and it’s hard to understand it, then I remember that I am Muslim and I have responsibility and accountability of been Muslim. It’s time for Muslims to return to Allah then nothing in this world could hurt us and we will end oppression, illegal occupation and suffering of humanity.

Im also a revert. Had been procrastinating praying. I have difficulty w Arabic and use a video. But lately I think I heard a sheik talking about this, lately I have after every prayer thanked Allah for letting me pray again and asked him to let me pray the next prayer. And this has been the greatest improvement in discipline that I have had. Alhumdillah.

[@Yahyamajoudou]

Allhamdullillah

[@arsalenshamil4117]

Hey, learn Arabic, but remember that prayers about talking to God and developing your relationship with him. Focused on him with humanity and humble . Just as important. and Arabic learning will come to you as well and make sure you understand the translation of your prayers. Deepest secret of my heart, and understand all supplications in all languages.

[@sher390]

Great to hear. We are also followers of Jesus. In fact, when converted to Islam I started to understand that at that moment I really started to follow Jesus, son of Mary.

[@wanwanmahmud6601]

The Palestinians inspired me strongly from their resilience, patience and perseverance. It's unfortunate that worldly possessions and pleasures make most of us neglect them. Many forget that the atrocities and their suffering are tests on us too.

One thing that’s important as well as Muslims, is we should teach our siblings, children and so on about many companions and righteous Muslims but also the brave ones. Such as Abu Dujana RA, Khalid RA, Umar RA, Dhirar Bin al Awzan RA, Ali RA, Abu Oybada bin Jarrah RA, Al-Qa'qa ibn Amr … we should know about them just like many people know about their favorite football players, fighters. These are our heroes

[@hmmm5082]

Yes, what our Muslim leaders could take from those you mention. A man like Khalid Ibn Walid as head of Muslim army/strength now that'd be something.

[@sidali2590]

May the almighty listen to the people of gaza and bring them peace ameen before Ramadan

[@TheOne-uc9rz]

There’s always a blessing in disguise in brutal situations such as what we are seeing. Alhamdulilah, many Muslims are beginning to detach from their love for this world. As we know about the Hadith about the nations summoning against us is due to our love for the world and hatred of death. Moreover, many are starting to understand how embarrassing and useless international courts are. These are the necessary seeds that need to be planted in our hearts and minds.

Wallahi Wallahi, I am not lieing, I was disrespect to my parents so so so much and i was feeling miserable, depressed in my life and then i was making so many duas ya Allah help me to be dutiful to my parents, I was fighting again and again with my parents, i was failing again and again but every time i was failing i was making dua again ya Allah i got failed again please help me, it took me long but الحمدلله الحمدلله الحمدلله after years making duas Allah made my relationship with my parents so good now they love me so much الحمدلله and i love them so much too There is a tip in wordly sense, whenever they say something to you even if you dont like and its not against sharia just do it even if you lose your dunia, just do it or if you dont wanna do it, on their face dont say "NO", say "Yes" only meet them after a day with proper reasons in respect, even they shout let them shout but i promise if you stay quite they will be very happy with you and they will agree إن شاء الله

This Ramadan, I wish we could designate one day of Universal Fasting for all to feel for people of the Gaza, Iftar for participants in Masajid. A way to give Dawa to our non Muslim brothers and sisters, at the same time.

Pray for them every day. Doesn't need or require an isolated day of reminder. That's the thing about Ramadan. It should be a stepping stone to continuing good deeds throughout the whole year.

Beautiful lecture sheikh keep um coming

[@denisehusbands5751]

I so agree with this message. I am not Muslim or Jew. We are given laws by God for us to follow and when we don't do them ALL then we suffer great hardships. That was promised by God. It is not enough to say I am a Muslim but I am not a practicing Muslim, or Jew or Christian. Too many Muslims have adapted Western liberal ungodly lifestyles. One can't be a Muslim because a grandmother is a practicing Muslim. I receive this message wholeheartedly. I hope that millions would hear this and turn to do ALL that God commands. We must forgive our enemies and love our neighbors as ourselves. Do not seek to avenge ourselves. Allah has a great army and many weapons that can't be seen

A truly excellent talk and among one of the brothers' best of late. And not that it needs reaffirming from me, but his mentioning of the Prophets, Messengers and all the righteousness followers of that same message of Monotheism (of Islam) being correctly termed "Muslim" brings it home - that there was, has, is, and will always ever be only one true way acceptable to God and that is Islam.
