Glad we got to know him more and know his story. It's not being nosy but when you love and support someone as much as we do with Aysha there's a minimum that we want to know of the story for the sake of our love for her. Now we can go back not knowing anything more about him and only have Aysha and we'll be fine. We know his name, we know he has chill vibe, he is a fashion designer by passion which makes sense because in all the pictures we saw I loved his unique fashion sense, he's revert and bring genuine happiness to our girl. Khalas there's nothing else we need to know.
Yacins sooo chillll and laid back 🥺 This is my first time watching a podcast Lmaoo, as soon as I saw that reel on IG I rushed here. Defo not nosy (lol) but I’m just so happy for you Aisha 🎉❤❤❤❤ been watching your content for so long that you’re now literally that big sis I’ve never had 🥺🫶🏾.
we don’t just love aysha me personally i’m loyal to her ❤ walahi yesterday i was crying 😭 (tears of joy ) seeing her vlogs Aysha and Yaseen till jannah 🫂❤️
It's the way they look at each other and the vibes...The connection is felt.May Allah guide and protect your marriage... For the Cousin podcast/CZcams, much success to you both. Insha'Allah
I've enjoyed the podcast and learning about Yasin.. May Allah grant his and Aysha's marriage peace and goodness. (One of Aysha's subscriber here😊) A point to note: As a practicing Muslim and as an individual who has non Muslim friends, it's extremely unfair to make comparisons between religions, a sentiment that was very obvious here. As podcasters there is a need to have a neutral ground in certain conversations UNLESS if this is a podcast only meant to address the Islamic Brotherhood. Amir: not all Muslims are nurturing and respectful. Black Muslim experience prejudice from other Muslims especially in countries that the majority are those who follow Islam, kindly research on it. It's good to be proud of our religion and to see the goodness and beauty in it but it's ignorant to think less of other religious beliefs simply because we're not ascribed to them, or understand them. We need to be secure in our own belief system because it feels right, because of what we read from the Qur'an and the teachings of the prophet (PBUH) but never with arguments that contrast. May Allah guide us all in our dealings.
I’m Ayesh’s follower almost 4 years now I’ve never been happier for anyone Alhamfulillah May Allaah bless your marriage and keep you away from evil eyes sis Allaahuma Barikkk
This was so lovely & I am so happy for Aysha & her family. It’s so easy to be offended when you are choosing to be offended. A difference in experience doesn’t inherently mean criticism. I am so happy that Aysha has found a love that seems to be ordained by God & it is a blessing to see them love one another ❤
YaAllah subhanAllah I commented on Aysha's recent video and said that her husband looks or seems like a revert. And subhanAllah am so happy for her and especially him that he found Islam. Reverts always inspire me I am born muslim I watch a lot of video about reverts. That's why I commented on Aysha's recent video please I hope I wasn't offensive on my comment Aysha. May Allah give your husband strength, and all reverts and ofcourse every Muslim yarab ameen. Also Sara I know its not my business but I recently noticed that you been wearing a ring lately so...I hope you can share are you engaged or...
I have been followig Aysha for years now. As a Christian girl much attached to my Christian faith, I find it interesting to follow a follow lady like me much attached to her faith. But today, this podcasts made me a bit sad. I am not against comparison at all, but only when you have read and understood for yourself the Christian scriptures. On a seperate note, I am so suprised to see how Christianity in America has become luke warm (I am African and live in France)? Throughout the entire video I was like "Gosh! what type of vibes are my christian brothers and sisters giving out there??". Enough said.. this just made me sad, as the Holy Bible teaches the absolute contrary.
Yay to CCP on Fridays! You guys touched on some interesting points re: the experience of learning and relearning Islam. The older you get, the more you explore the impact Islam has on your daily life and how you connect to it individually! It can be different modes for everyone .
Love the convo the couple are perfect Just want to mention as a Christian we are thought to focus on everyone by everyone I mean specially those who are not in the faith to spread the love more show the path to life I know that apply for Islam too but just putting it out there Regarding community the bond is real within people who go to the Same church ❤
Just finished the entire episode and it was so good, MashaAllah! It felt like I was sitting amongst my cousins and having a nice conversations with them 🤍
Hmm so after viewing this interview I think Ayesha is a great women and she can help any man flourish that she is with because of the strong leadership qualities that she has and is so nurturing I wish you well in your marriage .
Not me realising we never even heard his first name as my girl aysha just refers to him as my husband or bae ❤ and her brother called him ADONIS 🤣🤣🤣 that was tooo funny
Congratulations! Loved the fact that the conversation was mainly about Aysha's new husbandI hope Yasin does an African ancestry DNA test! He really seemed East African as well!
To our christian brothers and sisters here, I have a question, if this was about a person that converted from islam to christianity, would you call his opinions insults? Or you would respect them? I watch videos here on youtube of people that left islam, they say alot of things about islam and some of them are lies but we are used to insults, criticism and people's opinions so we respect them and do what we are supposed to do.
His life experiences are not insults. It’s the host adding uneducated opinions about a religion they don’t know about. They can do actual research and learn before they speak. I wouldn’t watch an uneducated Christian doing that to Islam. No different the other way around. Peace be with you
I just finished listening on Spotify, ran here to drop a comment. This was a lovely episode, I enjoyed the tea and conversation about the sustainable fashion.
You all were not letting him speak and finish his thoughts. Why was that? For example you asked him why LA not NY, he was thinking and you asked another question 😢
Hi. I was wondering if your husband was Ethiopian or African American. I've taken more interest in Islam as well. I've researched both Nation of Islam and traditional islam and there are huge differences. I like the traditional better. I've learned alot. I love the muslim community. I shop at the Somali mall, lots of muslims there. The women call me sista. In christianity, the Christian's l know are not disciplined and there's no community, everyone does their own thing. This is why I'm attracted to islam.
Hi! Yasin is African American. If you have questions about Islam, we are happy to help you in any way. Shoot us a DM on Instagram @cousinconnectionpod!
I feel like there a lot of digs to Christianity here.. I as a Christian woman respect your faith for what it is but I feel like you are almost making fun of Christianity which is not fair
To say they were making fun of Christianity is a bit of a reach… You’re entitled to feel how you feel but their points were understandable given the nature of the conversation which centred around the guest’s conversion to Islam FROM Christianity. Some of these comments are acting as if one of the hosts called Christianity violent or insulted Jesus (peace be upon him)
Am watching this all the way from Nigeria 🇳🇬 Love ❤️ u all and wish Aysha the best of luck in matrimony I just love watching her all the time Salamalekun ww
i started watching Aisha i think 2008/9 she was a teenage , she was my favorite youtuber because she was my age. and i never miss her videos' since then.
For me they are the 3 Mouseketeers I think and it’s obvious they are very close and love each other very much, they really support her when she needed it, so that man is lucky to be part of there family … Hope the 2 others get married to each other they won’t get better out there…
I love this podcast so much! Can’t wait to listen to this and hear all the tea 😂 jk jk in all seriousness I love them as a couple, Yassin (not sure how that is spelled) has a cool calm vibe Allahumma barik I pray they have a beautiful marriage filled with barakah and love ❤
Ma shaa Allah,barakallah fikum. Soo proud of Aysha for this beautiful growth. Have been watching her for quite a while and have seen the confidence grow and Allah swt coupled you with the best match. Wishing you a happy life ahead. May Allah swt grant tawfiq for a life with mawadha and rahma. Aamin.
I am a Christian and I admire Aysha alot and I have been following her for years. I have made some effort to understand Islam and Islamic ways through her Channel and I respect your religion So you can understand how I am not a fan of how Christianity was portrayed in this episode. Our ancestors were introduced to Christianity same as yours was introduced to Islam. So it is what we know and grew up in, same as you in Ethiopia. So yes, its part of a culture same for you but Aysha echoing that Yasin felt it was something 'taught/forced' and not 'innate' is contradictory because I can argue same for everyone born into Islam. And no, West Africa was not 'predominantly muslim'. It actually had traditional worshippers who were converted to Christianity and Islam based on the influence of the colonial masters in that region. The practices of Christians and Muslims are similar in some cases yet very different. Its not fair to hang the fact that possibly the people in Yasin's life did not show/teach him bible scriptures with understanding on Christianity and Christian faith as a whole.- He could have found that closeness with God by asking questions same as he was asking about Islam....to the right people!
Saying that the bible is 'a book that has been changed so many times' is a false narrative and not very informed. We have the bible in various translations to make it easier for understanding as not everyone could understand the Hebrew language. Neither is it a 'story book' with names of Kings and not factual! Come on guys! There are certain things you said that if I have said about Islam I could easily be stoned or burnt to D***th for it as par how Islam is practiced in certain parts of my country and I have chosen not to judge you based on how those people practice Islam so why judge ALL of Christianity based on your limited understanding, interactions and experiences though?
Even around the Trinity and how Christians are attributing humanity to God. Or the fact that there is all this 'Wisdom' in Islam and throwing subtle shades at Christianity.....The bible acknowledges God's Supremacy in every single thing and any Christian that understands and walks according to the words of God will tell you that. That you do not understand the reason or importance of the Trinity or even agree with it does not mean you should not respect it. We can agree to disagree as all truth will be revealed by God when we die.
Hi there! I can understand how you feel and I apologize for offending you. Aysha, Amir and myself (Sara) were born and raised on Islam and are quite ignorant to the details of the Christian religion. We know tidbits here and there from what we’re exposed to but that’s about it. I don’t think it’s fair to criticize what Yasin was saying though, as he was speaking from HIS experience. Aysha echoing what he said and saying Christianity was taught/forced on him and not something he was curious or possibly interested in is because he obviously shared his experience with her in great detail. Our intentions are never to offend anyone on this podcast but you have to understand that as hosts (Amir and Sara), we are always and can only really speak on things from our own lenses. As Canadians, Ethiopians and Muslims. Neither of us can speak on behalf of any other group because we haven’t lived their experience. If I listened to a podcast hosted by two Christian’s, I wouldn’t necessarily expect to be learning about Islam from them, I wouldn’t expect them to go into great detail about how the Qur’an was revealed to our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ or the attributes of God. To our knowledge, we’ve been informed that the bible has been changed and contains different information in some of the versions. I’m very well aware that there are different translations to cater to different people but to our knowledge, some of the core information was changed. Now, to say that we can’t compare Christianity to Islam is a bit of a stretch…this is a conversation people have on the daily. Just because we did it in a recorded environment from the perspective of 4 Muslims, doesn’t mean that we are wrong. We just have a different viewpoint. As you said, we can definitely agree to disagree, I do appreciate your honesty and your respectfulness and ask that you forgive us for offending you 🤍 If you’d like to chat in more detail, please DM our page or you can reach out to me (Sara) directly on Instagram 😊
@@ifeanyichukwuosaka4240 but its true that the bible has been changed a lot throughout history. Various councils and religious leaders throughout history have made decisions about which books should be included in the Bible and which should not. This has resulted in different versions of the Bible with different numbers of books. The Bible is a collection of books written by various authors over a period of several centuries, and as a result, it contains different styles of writing, literary genres, and perspectives. Some of these differences can lead to apparent contradictions or inconsistencies in the text. Also its worth noting that the four Gospels of the New Testament - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John - were written anonymously, meaning that the authors did not sign their names to the texts. While there has been some debate over the centuries about who wrote the Gospels, the identity of the authors remains uncertain. There is no concrete evidence to support that the gospels were written by the specific authors that they were attributed to based on tradition and speculation. The Gospels were written anonymously and it is possible that the Gospels were written by individuals who were not eyewitnesses to the events they describe, and who drew on various sources, including oral traditions and written materials, to create their accounts.
@@CousinConnectionPodcast thank you for this apology. I do want to make sure this is understood: Yassin has the right to explain his truth and his experiences. That’s his life. It was the adding on mostly by Amir, uneducated opinions about Christianity and also Islam on a public platform that was uncomfortable to watch. A Muslim can speak on Christianity by doing actual research. If anything that just makes your faith stronger, being educated in more than your own. I hope y’all understand. Thanks.
I really like Aysha , it’s because I learn a lot from her. Her positivity always was great to be around. The only thing I kind of disagree in this podcast is I don’t think it’s fair comparing religion. Ofcourse I will be surprised and happy seeing Christian people in Saudi Arabia it’s because a lot of Christian is not living there. In addition there is a lot Christians that follow the bible rules and at the same time majority of them is not. So I don’t think it’s fair to talk about as all Christians are not living there best. I am not disagreeing about all your conversations, I actually enjoyed them but as Aysha has a lot Christian followers or fun I don’t think it’s fair having compar and contrast conversations about religion.
I agree with you very narrow-minded conversation. In Africa we are strict about our chrisianity and devout based around the cultures compared to here in England or USA or canada. The way Islam is practised in Saudi or Yemen or Iran/Iraq who by the way have varying disagreements on the correct history of Islam, they will not even support their type of way of life of Islam and look down on them as devout as this crew SEEM. So it's not one fits all for all Religion.
@Rena Ace So you should spend time correcting the so-called false narratives then, instead of insinuating that the hosts are “not secure in their religion.” Because I don’t think any of what they said was incorrect, especially in light of the caveat they shared before speaking that this doesn’t apply to all Christians.
@Rena Ace Read Malcolm X’s letter from Hajj for more context on the comment about Muslim brotherhood that one of the hosts made. After that you can assume whatever you like 👍🏾
@Rena Ace Actually, at 1:00:37 Amir says “in general” before making his point. Then 10 seconds later, he simply says brotherhood in Christianity “isn’t as apparent” and that he “doesn’t see that.” Furthermore, you are entitled to stand on your point but to dismiss the hosts’ argument as a “false narrative” is highly disingenuous. Just one example to prove this point: Muslims give greetings of peace to each other on sight, break fast communally during Ramadan, and are able to recognize one another as brothers and sisters based purely on the way we dress. Does Christianity operate according to a similar model of brotherhood? If so, please enlighten me. Peace to you
Aslm Aysha😘 and team💕 Love this podcast 😊 yourself and Yaseen makes a great beautiful couple😊Alhamdulillah Yaseen is chilled and i trust Allah will bless your marriage in abundance💕 much love for you 💕 Take care 💕😘🌹
It’s almost as if the four speakers in question are Muslims speaking of their own personal experience 🤔 They even took care to avoid generalizations. You are free to interpret their words however you like but I fail to see how anyone could take offense to any of the points made
@ijaabo8142 Unfortunately, the podcast never failed to warn us that it is a Muslim only space or audience. No offence was taken on my path, I know my truth. It just was a trample on other religions they have never learnt to experience. I follow Aysha, and she is Hijabi, so I am not a closed-minded person. This was gearing into the line of trampling on things and experiences they barely no about.
About that West Africa being predominately muslim, its a big lie. West Africa was predominately Traditional african religion, just as Christianity was imported to Africa, Islam was imported as well.
@skysk5953 When I said traditional African religion, I meant religion and practices related to each tribes traditional and cultural practises not Christianity nor Islam. Whatelse plus I am West African so don't tell me about Africa being a continent. I am not dumb. The specific discuss here was about West African slaves.
But atleast the importers of Islam didn’t build chapels in Ghana and rape our ancestors in dungeons under the chapels and still pretend to be praising God. Sadly Christians of today after being indoctrinated into the religion by slave masters sill oppress other religions in countries they are the majority. For example so called Christian Mission schools in Ghana starved senior high boarding school girls during Ramadan because there was a rule of no fasting for both Christians and Muslims and forcefully tried to convert Muslim girls, flog them if they don’t go for worship and all of that. The Muslim community had to rise up and talk about it before something was done. Unlike Islamic oriented schools like the one I attended where Christians were actually allowed to go to Church every Sunday outside of the school and never forced to go to worship in the mosque. So there is a lot of personal experiences. If we all want to open up about them there will be more resentment.
There is no need to compare and contrast with other religions if you are secured in your faith. I think it actually takes away from the point you are trying to make if you constantly try to compare Islam to Christianity. This podcast made me very uncomfortable, especially as a Christian. The so-called lack of community among Christians is false entirely. Instead, the same argument can be made for Muslims in the Gulf or black Muslims. There were many unnecessary statements you made and I get that your audience is predominantly Muslim but this whole comparison game you displayed actually took away from the point you intended to make.
Hi Merhawi, no one said Christians lacked a sense of community, just that brotherhood on the basis of creed is a much more dominant concept in Islam than in Christianity. And this is a fact. If you want to know more, I don’t mind sharing. Look into Malcolm X’s letter from Hajj where he argues the same thing. Also, it seems that Christianity was only mentioned in this episode in light of Yasin’s conversion from Christianity to Islam. So although you may not like the comparison, I don’t think it was out of place given the context of the episode. Peace to you
@Rena Ace well the thing is even Christians don’t understand it, they just believe it and do as they are told. Do you know Islam is the fastest grown religion in the world because it is the true religion sent by the one and only god. I would advise you to be more open minded and do your research without hostility and bias!
@Rena Ace it’s not that we don’t understand the trinity as Muslim we understand more than you do and have very clear understanding prophet Jesus and everything that Christianity is mixing up ! And to us it’s so surprising that someone would believe something the don’t understand well. 🤔
Salam alaikum to all of you. Barakallahou lakoum'a wa baraka alaikouma wa djama'a baynakouma fil khayr. Aysha I love you so much for the sake of Allah. I'm Senegalese,my name is Zeynab Mbaye. I would love to meet you one day inchallah.
The nation of Islam was popular among African Americans in the 70s. Under Elijah Muhammad. After his death his son started transition them to al-islam. There was a split. The nation of Islam which is now being led by Farakhan and W.D Muhammad group who practiced Islam.
If you are going to be a podcaster you need to be much more careful with the things you are saying and putting out there. Not only was a majority of this talk putting down other religions and even cultures to imply that Islam is better, which Islam does not need you to do for it, there was also historical misinformation. But the worst part, Amir, is to say that in Islam any Muslim will treat you exactly the same and as a brother, whereas you don't see that in other cultures such as among African Americans. First of all, let's not act like there is not rife anti-Blackness among the Muslim community. And secondly, do not make assumptions about the relationships among other religious communities and cultures when you don't exist in those groups. Do better. Thank you Sarah for trying to tell Amir that he can't know and therefore comment on that in particular.
Hey! Thank you for your comment! You’re right and we hear you. That was our bad. We definitely are not trying to put anyone down and I think Amir tried to think well of Muslims in general by saying that they’ll treat all the same, regardless of race but the unfortunate reality is that racism does exist even amongst Muslims.
You know amir is allowed to speak to his own experience as a black East African maybe hasnt experienced racism....just because others have doesn't mean he has....I know as a Somali I have never experienced any racism amongst other Muslims but plenty from ppl who are not Muslims....amir is a individual and can speak to his own experiences without it triggering others who maybe have had a different experiences....we are not homogenous we can have shared experiences as well as different ones...
@Rena Ace girl bye - thats a pretty racist comment to say my community is the biggest supporter of it but ok...check yourself...again that can be amir's experince and there his OPINION based on his life experiences and its valid...
I love your podcast! I learn a lot from it! But if i can give one feedback is that you guys say a lot: uhu uhu. Hahaha i hope i dont offent you guys but maybe pay a little more attention on the ‘uhu’ ❤
Lmao oh trust meeee, we know! It drives Amir crazy when he edits, but it’s how we actively listen 🥺. We’ll work on the uh huhs so we aren’t driving all of you crazy as well lol
Alhumdulilah for Islam! Allah bless their union and protect them of all evil ameen. Btw, I hope Kevin knows he didn’t have to change his name to Yasin lol, that’s more of cultural expectation then Islamic. Only time name change is needed is when name is religious name like Christian.
Nice conversation but fyi half of the Quran is the same as Bible and Bible was written way, way back than Quran. Let’s not bash someone else’s religion to praise ours.
I’m sorry but this doesn’t make sense and stating facts isn’t bashing anything. The Bible has been edited many times by many unknown authors and even Christian scholars admit this. If you understood Islam you’d know why the Quran and Bible have similiarities, we see the Quran as the final testament sent to mankind and we know that the original Bible no longer exists. We believe the original Bible was sent down by God but it was altered and edited drastically by Kings and others. Respect for all my Christian brothers and sisters but staying historical facts should never be taken as an insult.
@@banandababa believe whatever you want but stop disrespecting another religion. You know you guys could’ve talked about Islam without mentioning the Bible or the Christian faith.
@@user-yq1im2xd1w 🤨 Brother Yasin converted FROM Christianity… That’s quite literally the only reason Christianity was even mentioned in this episode, and it was relevant to discuss
@@user-yq1im2xd1w I never disrespect Christians and as Muslims we are instructed by God not to. However, I still don’t get how saying factual statements that the Bible has been changed is triggering for you? Living in wilful ignorance and being scared of historical facts is so strange to me. People question Islam ALL the time and we welcome all questions and answer them. I’m genuinely sorry if I offend someone but that’s not my intention.
MashaAllah TabarakAllah may Allah bless and protect you all, your families and relationships. MashaAllah what a beautiful name Yaseen is….one of the beautiful surah’s and names in the Quran. May Allah guide us all on a path that please Him in the most beautiful way 🙂
The scream I sceamed when i realized that Yacin went to the H******💀💀💀. I always describe my high school as the "Turkish charter school" in order to dissociate from it 🤣
I love this but ,you3( 2 need to chill and let Yasin speak for god sake, you kept interrupting him uhhh Habeshas are not good at conversation Restlessness is real. I come in peace ❤
He’s so chill, love that for Aysha! May Allah bless their marriage abundantly!
Ameen

Hi. I was wondering if your husband was Ethiopian or African American. I've taken more interest in Islam as well. I've researched both Nation of Islam and traditional islam and there are huge differences. I like the traditional better. I've learned alot. I love the muslim community. I shop at the Somali mall, lots of muslims there. The women call me sista. In christianity, the Christian's l know are not disciplined and there's no community, everyone does their own thing. This is why I'm attracted to islam.
Hi! Yasin is African American. If you have questions about Islam, we are happy to help you in any way. Shoot us a DM on Instagram @cousinconnectionpod!
I feel like there a lot of digs to Christianity here.. I as a Christian woman respect your faith for what it is but I feel like you are almost making fun of Christianity which is not fair
To say they were making fun of Christianity is a bit of a reach… You’re entitled to feel how you feel but their points were understandable given the nature of the conversation which centred around the guest’s conversion to Islam FROM Christianity. Some of these comments are acting as if one of the hosts called Christianity violent or insulted Jesus (peace be upon him)
Am watching this all the way from Nigeria 🇳🇬 Love ❤️ u all and wish Aysha the best of luck in matrimony I just love watching her all the time Salamalekun ww
Aysha's brother is a beauty
i started watching Aisha i think 2008/9 she was a teenage , she was my favorite youtuber because she was my age. and i never miss her videos' since then.
Love love love how close the family is! Its really a blessing to have it and nurture🫶🏾
For me they are the 3 Mouseketeers I think and it’s obvious they are very close and love each other very much, they really support her when she needed it, so that man is lucky to be part of there family …
Hope the 2 others get married to each other they won’t get better out there…
I love this podcast so much! Can’t wait to listen to this and hear all the tea 😂 jk jk in all seriousness I love them as a couple, Yassin (not sure how that is spelled) has a cool calm vibe Allahumma barik I pray they have a beautiful marriage filled with barakah and love ❤
Ma shaa Allah,barakallah fikum. Soo proud of Aysha for this beautiful growth. Have been watching her for quite a while and have seen the confidence grow and Allah swt coupled you with the best match. Wishing you a happy life ahead. May Allah swt grant tawfiq for a life with mawadha and rahma. Aamin.
This is my favorite video by far loves aysha and Yasin .
And also congrats for 3 k
I am a Christian and I admire Aysha alot and I have been following her for years. I have made some effort to understand Islam and Islamic ways through her Channel and I respect your religion
So you can understand how I am not a fan of how Christianity was portrayed in this episode. Our ancestors were introduced to Christianity same as yours was introduced to Islam. So it is what we know and grew up in, same as you in Ethiopia. So yes, its part of a culture same for you but Aysha echoing that Yasin felt it was something 'taught/forced' and not 'innate' is contradictory because I can argue same for everyone born into Islam. And no, West Africa was not 'predominantly muslim'. It actually had traditional worshippers who were converted to Christianity and Islam based on the influence of the colonial masters in that region.
The practices of Christians and Muslims are similar in some cases yet very different. Its not fair to hang the fact that possibly the people in Yasin's life did not show/teach him bible scriptures with understanding on Christianity and Christian faith as a whole.- He could have found that closeness with God by asking questions same as he was asking about Islam....to the right people!
Saying that the bible is 'a book that has been changed so many times' is a false narrative and not very informed. We have the bible in various translations to make it easier for understanding as not everyone could understand the Hebrew language. Neither is it a 'story book' with names of Kings and not factual! Come on guys!
There are certain things you said that if I have said about Islam I could easily be stoned or burnt to D***th for it as par how Islam is practiced in certain parts of my country and I have chosen not to judge you based on how those people practice Islam so why judge ALL of Christianity based on your limited understanding, interactions and experiences though?
Even around the Trinity and how Christians are attributing humanity to God. Or the fact that there is all this 'Wisdom' in Islam and throwing subtle shades at Christianity.....The bible acknowledges God's Supremacy in every single thing and any Christian that understands and walks according to the words of God will tell you that. That you do not understand the reason or importance of the Trinity or even agree with it does not mean you should not respect it. We can agree to disagree as all truth will be revealed by God when we die.
Hi there! I can understand how you feel and I apologize for offending you. Aysha, Amir and myself (Sara) were born and raised on Islam and are quite ignorant to the details of the Christian religion. We know tidbits here and there from what we’re exposed to but that’s about it.
I don’t think it’s fair to criticize what Yasin was saying though, as he was speaking from HIS experience. Aysha echoing what he said and saying Christianity was taught/forced on him and not something he was curious or possibly interested in is because he obviously shared his experience with her in great detail.
Our intentions are never to offend anyone on this podcast but you have to understand that as hosts (Amir and Sara), we are always and can only really speak on things from our own lenses. As Canadians, Ethiopians and Muslims. Neither of us can speak on behalf of any other group because we haven’t lived their experience.
If I listened to a podcast hosted by two Christian’s, I wouldn’t necessarily expect to be learning about Islam from them, I wouldn’t expect them to go into great detail about how the Qur’an was revealed to our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ or the attributes of God.
To our knowledge, we’ve been informed that the bible has been changed and contains different information in some of the versions. I’m very well aware that there are different translations to cater to different people but to our knowledge, some of the core information was changed.
Now, to say that we can’t compare Christianity to Islam is a bit of a stretch…this is a conversation people have on the daily. Just because we did it in a recorded environment from the perspective of 4 Muslims, doesn’t mean that we are wrong. We just have a different viewpoint.
As you said, we can definitely agree to disagree, I do appreciate your honesty and your respectfulness and ask that you forgive us for offending you 🤍
If you’d like to chat in more detail, please DM our page or you can reach out to me (Sara) directly on Instagram 😊
@@ifeanyichukwuosaka4240 but its true that the bible has been changed a lot throughout history. Various councils and religious leaders throughout history have made decisions about which books should be included in the Bible and which should not. This has resulted in different versions of the Bible with different numbers of books. The Bible is a collection of books written by various authors over a period of several centuries, and as a result, it contains different styles of writing, literary genres, and perspectives. Some of these differences can lead to apparent contradictions or inconsistencies in the text.
Also its worth noting that the four Gospels of the New Testament - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John - were written anonymously, meaning that the authors did not sign their names to the texts. While there has been some debate over the centuries about who wrote the Gospels, the identity of the authors remains uncertain. There is no concrete evidence to support that the gospels were written by the specific authors that they were attributed to based on tradition and speculation. The Gospels were written anonymously and it is possible that the Gospels were written by individuals who were not eyewitnesses to the events they describe, and who drew on various sources, including oral traditions and written materials, to create their accounts.
@@CousinConnectionPodcast thank you for this apology. I do want to make sure this is understood: Yassin has the right to explain his truth and his experiences. That’s his life. It was the adding on mostly by Amir, uneducated opinions about Christianity and also Islam on a public platform that was uncomfortable to watch. A Muslim can speak on Christianity by doing actual research. If anything that just makes your faith stronger, being educated in more than your own. I hope y’all understand. Thanks.
Lol piece of advice for Amir hahaha you need to give your guests the chance to speak specially if they are quiet people 😂
I really like Aysha , it’s because I learn a lot from her. Her positivity always was great to be around. The only thing I kind of disagree in this podcast is I don’t think it’s fair comparing religion. Ofcourse I will be surprised and happy seeing Christian people in Saudi Arabia it’s because a lot of Christian is not living there. In addition there is a lot Christians that follow the bible rules and at the same time majority of them is not. So I don’t think it’s fair to talk about as all Christians are not living there best. I am not disagreeing about all your conversations, I actually enjoyed them but as Aysha has a lot Christian followers or fun I don’t think it’s fair having compar and contrast conversations about religion.
Again you know ppl can and have their own experiences they can speak about...
I agree with you very narrow-minded conversation. In Africa we are strict about our chrisianity and devout based around the cultures compared to here in England or USA or canada. The way Islam is practised in Saudi or Yemen or Iran/Iraq who by the way have varying disagreements on the correct history of Islam, they will not even support their type of way of life of Islam and look down on them as devout as this crew SEEM. So it's not one fits all for all Religion.
@Rena Ace So you should spend time correcting the so-called false narratives then, instead of insinuating that the hosts are “not secure in their religion.” Because I don’t think any of what they said was incorrect, especially in light of the caveat they shared before speaking that this doesn’t apply to all Christians.
@Rena Ace Read Malcolm X’s letter from Hajj for more context on the comment about Muslim brotherhood that one of the hosts made. After that you can assume whatever you like 👍🏾
@Rena Ace Actually, at 1:00:37 Amir says “in general” before making his point. Then 10 seconds later, he simply says brotherhood in Christianity “isn’t as apparent” and that he “doesn’t see that.”
Furthermore, you are entitled to stand on your point but to dismiss the hosts’ argument as a “false narrative” is highly disingenuous. Just one example to prove this point: Muslims give greetings of peace to each other on sight, break fast communally during Ramadan, and are able to recognize one another as brothers and sisters based purely on the way we dress. Does Christianity operate according to a similar model of brotherhood? If so, please enlighten me. Peace to you
Aslm Aysha😘 and team💕
Love this podcast 😊 yourself and Yaseen makes a great beautiful couple😊Alhamdulillah
Yaseen is chilled and i trust Allah will bless your marriage in abundance💕 much love for you 💕
Take care 💕😘🌹
🎊Congratulations on 3,000 plus viewers!! 🎉
This podcast was interesting, but very one sided, almost saying islam is more accepting, than other religion.
It’s almost as if the four speakers in question are Muslims speaking of their own personal experience 🤔 They even took care to avoid generalizations. You are free to interpret their words however you like but I fail to see how anyone could take offense to any of the points made
@ijaabo8142 Unfortunately, the podcast never failed to warn us that it is a Muslim only space or audience. No offence was taken on my path, I know my truth. It just was a trample on other religions they have never learnt to experience. I follow Aysha, and she is Hijabi, so I am not a closed-minded person. This was gearing into the line of trampling on things and experiences they barely no about.
About that West Africa being predominately muslim, its a big lie. West Africa was predominately Traditional african religion, just as Christianity was imported to Africa, Islam was imported as well.
@skysk5953 When I said traditional African religion, I meant religion and practices related to each tribes traditional and cultural practises not Christianity nor Islam. Whatelse plus I am West African so don't tell me about Africa being a continent. I am not dumb. The specific discuss here was about West African slaves.
But atleast the importers of Islam didn’t build chapels in Ghana and rape our ancestors in dungeons under the chapels and still pretend to be praising God. Sadly Christians of today after being indoctrinated into the religion by slave masters sill oppress other religions in countries they are the majority. For example so called Christian Mission schools in Ghana starved senior high boarding school girls during Ramadan because there was a rule of no fasting for both Christians and Muslims and forcefully tried to convert Muslim girls, flog them if they don’t go for worship and all of that. The Muslim community had to rise up and talk about it before something was done. Unlike Islamic oriented schools like the one I attended where Christians were actually allowed to go to Church every Sunday outside of the school and never forced to go to worship in the mosque. So there is a lot of personal experiences. If we all want to open up about them there will be more resentment.
This was soooo good is wish it was longer! 💕
Amazing couples❤ may God bless your union.
Yes more like this please!! Loved it!
Masha Allah beautiful couple I'm so happy for you aisha allahumma barik
*mashaAllah what a beautiful couple*
There is no need to compare and contrast with other religions if you are secured in your faith. I think it actually takes away from the point you are trying to make if you constantly try to compare Islam to Christianity. This podcast made me very uncomfortable, especially as a Christian. The so-called lack of community among Christians is false entirely. Instead, the same argument can be made for Muslims in the Gulf or black Muslims. There were many unnecessary statements you made and I get that your audience is predominantly Muslim but this whole comparison game you displayed actually took away from the point you intended to make.
Christianity doesn’t make sense
Hi Merhawi, no one said Christians lacked a sense of community, just that brotherhood on the basis of creed is a much more dominant concept in Islam than in Christianity. And this is a fact. If you want to know more, I don’t mind sharing. Look into Malcolm X’s letter from Hajj where he argues the same thing.
Also, it seems that Christianity was only mentioned in this episode in light of Yasin’s conversion from Christianity to Islam. So although you may not like the comparison, I don’t think it was out of place given the context of the episode. Peace to you
@Rena Ace please explain the trinity in Christianity ?
@Rena Ace well the thing is even Christians don’t understand it, they just believe it and do as they are told. Do you know Islam is the fastest grown religion in the world because it is the true religion sent by the one and only god. I would advise you to be more open minded and do your research without hostility and bias!
@Rena Ace it’s not that we don’t understand the trinity as Muslim we understand more than you do and have very clear understanding prophet Jesus and everything that Christianity is mixing up !
And to us it’s so surprising that someone would believe something the don’t understand well. 🤔
Salam alaikum to all of you. Barakallahou lakoum'a wa baraka alaikouma wa djama'a baynakouma fil khayr. Aysha I love you so much for the sake of Allah. I'm Senegalese,my name is Zeynab Mbaye. I would love to meet you one day inchallah.
Wa alaykumus salam, thank you for your comment! ❤
The nation of Islam was popular among African Americans in the 70s. Under Elijah Muhammad. After his death his son started transition them to al-islam. There was a split. The nation of Islam which is now being led by Farakhan and W.D Muhammad group who practiced Islam.
Allahuma Bareek 🎉❤
Great episode!
Great episode 🤍
Congrats to both of them
MashaAllah they are soo adorable!
Walaahi I feel like I'm one of the cousins. Aisha is basically like my real sister and Walaahi I made a secret dua for her and Allah answered it
How did they met
I enjoyed this episode 👌🏾
Great Episodes ❤️
We do looooove Aysha❤️❤️❤️
If you are going to be a podcaster you need to be much more careful with the things you are saying and putting out there. Not only was a majority of this talk putting down other religions and even cultures to imply that Islam is better, which Islam does not need you to do for it, there was also historical misinformation.
But the worst part, Amir, is to say that in Islam any Muslim will treat you exactly the same and as a brother, whereas you don't see that in other cultures such as among African Americans. First of all, let's not act like there is not rife anti-Blackness among the Muslim community. And secondly, do not make assumptions about the relationships among other religious communities and cultures when you don't exist in those groups. Do better. Thank you Sarah for trying to tell Amir that he can't know and therefore comment on that in particular.
Hey! Thank you for your comment! You’re right and we hear you. That was our bad. We definitely are not trying to put anyone down and I think Amir tried to think well of Muslims in general by saying that they’ll treat all the same, regardless of race but the unfortunate reality is that racism does exist even amongst Muslims.
Totally agree with this comment. Great start to the interview, but disagreed with the put down of other faiths and cultures so had to stop watching.
You know amir is allowed to speak to his own experience as a black East African maybe hasnt experienced racism....just because others have doesn't mean he has....I know as a Somali I have never experienced any racism amongst other Muslims but plenty from ppl who are not Muslims....amir is a individual and can speak to his own experiences without it triggering others who maybe have had a different experiences....we are not homogenous we can have shared experiences as well as different ones...
@Rena Ace girl bye - thats a pretty racist comment to say my community is the biggest supporter of it but ok...check yourself...again that can be amir's experince and there his OPINION based on his life experiences and its valid...
Are Muslims friendly and nice only to other Muslims?
Love this channel ❤
Nice video 🔥
Thank you for Sharing ☺️
I love your podcast! I learn a lot from it! But if i can give one feedback is that you guys say a lot: uhu uhu. Hahaha i hope i dont offent you guys but maybe pay a little more attention on the ‘uhu’ ❤
Lmao oh trust meeee, we know! It drives Amir crazy when he edits, but it’s how we actively listen 🥺. We’ll work on the uh huhs so we aren’t driving all of you crazy as well lol
Some1 tell me,was Aisha not married to a white guy years back,not African looking guy.some1 fill me in.
Dope my gs 💪
How to hard launch your man online SENT ME LMAOO!
Mashaallah for aysha i am happy for you
Alhumdulilah for Islam! Allah bless their union and protect them of all evil ameen.
Btw, I hope Kevin knows he didn’t have to change his name to Yasin lol, that’s more of cultural expectation then Islamic. Only time name change is needed is when name is religious name like Christian.
Allahuma Barik 🥰
Nice conversation but fyi half of the Quran is the same as Bible and Bible was written way, way back than Quran. Let’s not bash someone else’s religion to praise ours.
I’m sorry but this doesn’t make sense and stating facts isn’t bashing anything. The Bible has been edited many times by many unknown authors and even Christian scholars admit this. If you understood Islam you’d know why the Quran and Bible have similiarities, we see the Quran as the final testament sent to mankind and we know that the original Bible no longer exists. We believe the original Bible was sent down by God but it was altered and edited drastically by Kings and others. Respect for all my Christian brothers and sisters but staying historical facts should never be taken as an insult.
@@banandababa believe whatever you want but stop disrespecting another religion. You know you guys could’ve talked about Islam without mentioning the Bible or the Christian faith.
@@user-yq1im2xd1w 🤨 Brother Yasin converted FROM Christianity… That’s quite literally the only reason Christianity was even mentioned in this episode, and it was relevant to discuss
@@user-yq1im2xd1w I never disrespect Christians and as Muslims we are instructed by God not to. However, I still don’t get how saying factual statements that the Bible has been changed is triggering for you? Living in wilful ignorance and being scared of historical facts is so strange to me. People question Islam ALL the time and we welcome all questions and answer them. I’m genuinely sorry if I offend someone but that’s not my intention.
@Rena Ace that’s a you problem. Your insecurities have nothing to do with us Muslims.
Masha Allah
Did she just call us nosey 😂
In the most loving way 😅🫶🏾 I know y’all love aysha so much and I love to see it!
I suspected something when you made that soup recipe...i thought to myself why is making such a large pot of soup!
18:21 mashallah!!! my standards as a incoming fashion student have been rasied 😅😂
I love shopping for eid clothes
Am here from Aysha group. Much luv from Uganda
MashaAllah
You guys have to give your guests a break like a cup of tea may be😅😄👊🏾

I love this. You guys should have sessions like this where you invite people
We dooo 🥹
Love this ❤
MashaAllah TabarakAllah may Allah bless and protect you all, your families and relationships. MashaAllah what a beautiful name Yaseen is….one of the beautiful surah’s and names in the Quran. May Allah guide us all on a path that please Him in the most beautiful way 🙂
I feel like Muslims get included more with diversity inclusion since the LGBTQIA+ community fights for there inclusion. It’s interesting…..
The scream I sceamed when i realized that Yacin went to the H******💀💀💀. I always describe my high school as the "Turkish charter school" in order to dissociate from it 🤣
Masha Allah 🥹🥹🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰
No questions because he could have been a friend. I never saw a clue as to he's Aysha's husband.
Wearing new clothes in eid it's a must in Arab countries 🤣🤣🤣
I like Aysha❤
I’m not interested relative marriage , anyways guys congrats happy marriage
Not the Hararge Muslims talking about forcing a religion on another community 😂 okay
Not a whole husband 🤭… that was good joke
I love this but ,you3( 2 need to chill and let Yasin speak for god sake, you kept interrupting him uhhh
Habeshas are not good at conversation
Restlessness is real.
I come in peace ❤
❤❤🌹🌹
Masham
