i am so fortunate to be a muslim and my work involves protecting and promoting biodiversity Alhamdullilah

[@tahaadnan5907]

I feel the same, I am just starting my masters in environmental engineering. Islam has always taught us only the good, yet we refuse to obey sometimes. May Allah protect us and guide us.

When you associate with other life forms, you get a feeling of peace and the pace of every day life slows down.

*Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim* A wonderful talk alhamdulillah, and it is a reminder to know that the Prophet Muhammad _(sallALLAHU alayhi wa sallam)_ is the Receiver of the Religion of Islam, of which ALLAH perfected his (s.a.w) (&HIS) Religion and completed it with all favours upon him _(and for his ummah)_, thus in this context the Honourable Respected Shaykh Abdul Hakim Murad _(Dr. T. Winter)_ said generally that Muhammad sallALLAHU alayhi wa sallam the Last Prophet of ALLAH being the Founder of the Religion _(of Islam)_ as he is the Khatamun Nabiyyeen _(Seal of Prophethood of which no new revelation/law/scripture, nor prophet or religion would come from ALLAH after our Nabi/Prophet Muhammad*)_ thus the Noble Prophet Muhammad who is the Messenger/Rasul _(who Recieved Law)_ Recieved the Religion of Islam from ALLAH in all Perfectness and completion with favours. ... .. A wonderful reminder and inspirational talk indeed. *Isa ibn Mariam/Jesus son of Mary _(upon them be peace)_ will arrive in the future as Prophesied by the Final Prophet that no no new law, no new scripture, no new religion from ALLAH will arrive after the Prophet Muhammad sallALLAHU Alayhi wa sallam, rather Isa Alayhi salam will return as a follower of the Prophet Muhammad being of his _(Muhammad S.)_ Prophetic Nation while by default he Isa ibn Mariam A.S. would remain as a Messenger, a Prophet and the Messiah but not in that capacity of word or action, without change to his nature as the Word of ALLAH naturally of a miraculous birth.. And ALLAH and HIS Messenger Muhammad knows best as his companions/Sahaba radiaALLAHU Anhuma would know to say as they believed.

We can start stopping the distribution of plastic water bottles at our masjids, especially during Ramadan. what's stopping us having water fountains and getting people to top up their own bottles. a small change which will encourage a change in behaviour. in modern countries we have good quality water. If an event is held why not have jugs of water and reusable cups.

There is still a long way for our people to be educated in all things. Progression comes from education

[@minskdhaka]

Great message, as always. Unfortunately, because of the camera work, Shaykh Abdal Hakim's face is out of focus much of the time, which is a bit distracting.

[@banished4eva]

Just audio listen to it

[@Sam-ng3of]

great points! (small correction Dr, Muhammad isn't the founder of islam (noun. 'submission to God') - it predates him by many years. God's first prophet was Adam).

[@nomikzoo]

I too noticed that he called prophet a founder 😳

[@jpaqon]

By the conventions of the English language it would be correct to call the Prophet (saw) the founder of Islam in that the religion that is immediately recognised as Islam was revealed to him, even if He (saw) was the culmination of a longer chain of prophets.

Anyone else noticed most converts from the west are gingers? LSE could research that.

[@Mr_Unfazed0]

Not convert but Revert

[@alhassani626]

Because the Irish have a tradition of reading. And reading is a central doctrine of Islam.
