    Asalamu alaykum, I've had a similar experience when it comes to marriage here in Canada. Being a Revert, half French and half Jamaican, it presents a big problem apparently. Too much discrimination in the community... even in the black muslim community. May Allah make things easy for the brother. Ameen.

    Legit talk and I love seeing the humbleness from Bilal. In my experience the greater humbleness is when you identify your faults, your not afraid to state them openly without fear of looking lowly or undermined and fixing yourself. I like that and may God make us more like that. Too many people think they are better or entitled to more than others.

    A couple of things:
    How is an intellectual, practicing, eloquent and grounded brother like Muslim not married. May Allah make it easy for him. Ameen. Parents being racists is a lot to do with culture and lack of education for true Islam. A black woman was the Prophet saw milk mother. A black man was the first to call Adnan. SubhanAllah. The next generation has more knowledge so inshaAllah less racism.
    2. This was very enlightening talk MashaAllah tabarakAllah
    3. I think faisal needs to be aware of the stuttering. Perhaps write his questions or points down.
    4. Also, you can mix the podcast up, to a quick rapid round of random question, 60 seconds.
    5. Keep up the good work.

    As Salam alykum, may Allah bless your channel and all the good you are doing. I have tried to find a way to message you privately but was unable to find a way to do so. I would just like to inform you of something I have noticed with your channel and many islamic CZcams channels from the UK. It is evident that the only time a black person is bought on this channel is when they have gained enough accolades and recognition by the entire 'muslim' Community to do so, for example, from the streets to Islam, entertainment, scholar or etc. It is also clear that Muslims from Asian and Arab backgrounds are invited to talk on such platforms just as hey are, for example, your average father, your average business man and etc. I hope this is not come off as a us against them thing, but I think it's important to understand that there are loads of black Muslims who live basic lives like other Muslims who are doing amazing things and platforms like this need to recognise that black Muslims are just as normal as other Muslims and don't always need accolades to be invited to speak on such platforms. Please forgive me if I have offended or failed to make my point clear but I hope you understand what I mean.

    I agree with muslim Bilal, but not all over the world. Some parts in Africa men will choose a beautiful dark skin over a light skin and white girl. I know this from experience. It's the media that's changing our mentality. Subhanallah it's crazy that Muslims could even me racist. Most people don't even know that the prophet who's name was mentioned more than any in the Quran was dark skin as our beloved prophet SAW explained invthw hadith. (Musa) this shows that skin isn't the case on the sight of Allahvits what's in the Hearth and your believes.

    This racism within the community is a real sickness. Even within the black community we're racist like racist. And after we cry when other people treat us like trash. Recently my parents refused a marriage proposal from a black brother cuz he is not from my country. Its a madness. If We black people dont stop looking down on our own brothers, white people won't stop their hatred towards us cuz what you do, so shall you reap. And Allah doesnt change a group of people's condition if they dont change what is inside their heart. Stop the hate

      Don’t let it get to you bro. When culture gets involved with Islam, as with any religion, things get twisted and people don’t follow Islam how it should be. The new generation of Muslims are more woke and more accepting to others, as with most spiritually woke people in this world, Islam or not. Remember that being Muslim is a state of being, not a state of identity
