    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.

    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.

    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. 🙄

      @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.

    I am Born Muslim, & I have tremendously benefited from Hamza and all the other Speakers corner Dawah. I really needed to hear all those kind of debates.
    May Allah reward you all with the best in Dunia and the Best in Akhera.
    My parent are not really getting it as much unfortunately. Thx to the videos, I realized all the holes I was brought up to. May allah guide them to the truth, very sad coz they won't listen carefully. (they have problems with full commitment, They are like "modern muslims", They have problems with the Hadiths and Sunna) Shitan used this to drag me down. and I did go down in a spiral, but elhamdoulilah, came back up ever strong. If they hear me say Pictures of living creates are haram to be hung up or put on a shelf... they would call me extremist right away... But that's easy to avoid, I just don't tell them. The harsh part is that my dad refuses to pray Jama3a, + refuses to go to the Mosque in Jum3a. just so you can imagine. He just prays alone all the time. Hates all people with beards. Hate Hijab, Totally hates Niqab.
