Mohammed Hijab is a cure for arrogance
he’s annoying
Mohammed Hijab is a great brother alhumdulliah 💪🏿
Knowing that all our abilities are from Allaah thus all praise is for Allaah. Being arrogant directly opposes our nature.
Every time I hear Hijab speak draws me closer to Islam one day I will find the courage to attend a mosque and ask questions
The doors of paradise in which rivers flow is waiting for you. If your heart inclines towards this great religion then you are already half way there. Take that leap of faith my brother.
inshallah
Insallah
Don't be shy, just go ahead. You recognize you are a creation of the almighty? Then Islam is already your religion.
True freedom is when you don't have to fear anyone or anything except for Allah.
I pray to Allah almighty to give you that courage.
🤍🤍
This man is brilliant
You're easily pleased!
@@Wiggle65 Can't handle the losing of David Wood?
Very allegorical...
@@SingularityIsThePower I'm an atheist, I've got no runner in the religious game. But I know a hate baiter when I hear one!
As non-religious man who studies religion, I must say that of all religions Islam is probably the most plagiarized... I mean even they say it's the same "god" as the Jews... just a copy of a copy!
I admire brother Hijab, he has the right attitude to deal with arrogant westerners! Never bend, never be apologetic!
❤
I understand him. For example I am not arrogant but there is a certain person in my life that has this mission to try to lower my selfesteem.. that is the person which i am arrogant againsr because that person is a very low life person.
he's just a loud baboon.
Oh of course, Moreover, he's an expert in ad hominem attacks, directly or indirectly threatening critics of Islam, scolding their relatives using sexually connoted words... what an admirable individual.
Definitely agreed!
I’ve both praised and criticized Hijab before, but this side of him where he displays vulnerability and talks openly is truly endearing. May Allah bless him and help him and us improve.
Allahuma amin
allah is the title of god its not the name SATAN IS ISLAMS GODS NAME
Mohammad Hijab is wrong. He wrongly addresses David Wood's argument on Quran 33:56

Ameen Yaa Rabbi
@ahmedyamani7388 There is nothing wrong with being arrogant in the name of Allah
MashaAllah, br Hijab is very self-aware, and more people should see that side of him
Definately not arrogant, confident yes! Alhamdulillah.
MH is able to identify his own strengths and weaknesses. An arrogant person doesnt acknowledge any weakness or accept their wrong, so not to weaken their position in a debate. During debates MH has many times back tracked when wrong and makes it clear, "your right". Being able to clearly and passionately express truth with knowledge you have honed your entire life and continue to do so shows CONFIDENCE, not arrogance.
May Allah continue to strengthen and guide him, and us all.
In today's world, masculine confidence is seen as arrogant
Hijab is not arrogant! He just puts people in their place!
Stop praising men too much
@@malikialgeriankabyleswag4200 do you know him personally?
❤
Lol. By not letting others speak?
@@waterbottles4744I can tell you only watched clips and never finished a full video.
Arrogance is a side effect of intelligence. It's essential to acknowledge that your intelligence is not solely a result of your efforts but rather a gift from Allah. Keeping this in mind can foster humility.
Edit: obviously I mean a *bad* side effect.
True intelligence lies in recognizing one's own limitations as a human being. The greater the intelligence, the deeper the humility, as it brings a clear understanding of our finite nature. And in this realization, we acknowledge that everything we have and are, has been provided to us by Allah, not from ourselves.
Arrogance and pride is what ruined humanity and now you tryna convince us that it’s a side effect of intelligence. I can’t believe what I’m reading how you twisting things around. That’s what destroyed the Jews and the Christians before us. May Allah increase our humility, humbleness and our kindness in this ummah. We have truth on our side but even Allah said this about Prophet Muhammad: 3:159 ( So by mercy from Allāh, [O Muḥammad], you were lenient with them. And if you had been rude [in speech] and harsh in heart, they would have disbanded from about you. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and consult them in the matter. And when you have decided, then rely upon Allāh. Indeed, Allāh loves those who rely [upon Him].)
Pathetic comment. Allah hates takabur(ARROGANCE)
Actually humbleness is an effect of wisdom and knowledge.
Arrogance is a side effect of ignorance.
Your IQ must be below 20
Whoever has a mustard seed's weight of pride (arrogance) in his heart, shall not be admitted into Paradise. (Sahib Abi Dawud)
I'm not advocating for Osama bin Laden , but when he talked he exuded humility and spirituality .
Hijab sounds like a Woke activist rabble rouser . Essentially a demagogue of the CZcams and tiktok generation .
You are a strong men Mashallah not arrogant 💪
❤
masha Allah
It's confidence*
Allah knows best
Ahmed Deedat used to be like this when dealing with non Muslims who debate Islam. Its a personality you must adopt against them and appear from the moral highground just as they do
Exactly
He is not arrogant. He is simply just proud to be a Muslim! May Allah bless jou brother Hijab and all the muslims in the world. Amien!
I'm just glad to have people like Hijab around. Raising a voice and standing on the side of the vulnerable and opressed is admirable and brave, definitely not arrogant.
Muslims are not oppressed, they’re the ones that do the oppressing
Not arrogant, simply a confident Muslim man.
I don’t agree 😅
Great interview.
Great Questions.
Even better answer’s. ❤
truly
Short & sweet with depth. Uncommon combination.
MashaAllah beautiful video. One advice please stop changing the camera angle every half second. Just choose one and keep it or change with topic changes or something. This is to much and hard on the eyes honestly. May Allah swt bless your work and efforts.
Thank you for your feedback and may Allah bless you!
@@i3InstituteAmeen. Love y’all. Keep up the good work.
I love Mohammed Hijab. I wanna see his watch collection, he has some very classic and functional pieces.
May Allah keep him steadfast and guide him to the paths of goodness.
I have loved watching Mohammed Hijab develop. I will admit, I did not like his person in his earlier days. But he's turning into a real beast of the deen in modern times. May Allah bless his efforts and grant him wisdom!
As Muslims in the west, I feel we do have to walk with a certain arrogance when dealing with arrogant people. Similarly, showing humility and compassion should not be far away. When it comes to talking about our religion we can’t help but be arrogant to display our convictions. In the UK, you must be confident talking about Islam and you better be sure you have all the necessary knowledge and education to do this. I totally get his stance.
Maybe he shouldn't run away from debating people who actually understand both Islam and Christianity. When he knows his reasoning and logic is wrong, he resorts to crude methods of winning such as intimidation, strawman arguments, lying, cutting people off and shouting etc. He would get annihilated in a debate with Sam Shamoun or Christian Prince.
THE WEST CREATED ALL THE ARABS WEALTH AND PRODUCTS,, DUMB PEOPLE
@@ally4131 Exactly its just false bravado to save face. He ran away from Siig and David too lol
@@ally4131... except he already debated and destroyed David "Hammertime" Wood.
Islam is number 1 always, and a Christian shouldn't ever speak about logic and reasoning 😂 3 does not equal one.
@@sam-ht6qv I didn’t say David Wood you incompetent clown. I am not Christian anyway, though it has far more merit than Islam, both in doctrine/teachings and historically. If you look at the key figures, Jesus and Muhammad, one was a sex-slave owning murderous warlord who diddled 9 year old Aisha, whilst the other was close enough to sinless and taught: turn thy cheek, love thy neighbour and love thy enemy.
Muhammad did all those things in spite of being called the most moral of men in the Quran and having Allah say nothing about his awful deeds, despite being ‘timeless, all-knowing and all-powerful’. Really makes you question if Muhammad was actually a deceiver or whether or not Allah is what he claims to be. Either way, it’s a massive contradiction that invalidates Islam entirely.
Wallahi HIjab is not arrogant nor narcissistic. People are unjust towards the big man!
He is a liar and a slanderer and he is unjust to other Muslims.
See thorn in the throats and see the proof.
Muslims tend to overcompensate for our otherness put on us by western ideals. We definitely need to grow tougher skins. We need to put oursleves forward with more confidence and pride in our deen as muslims. I agree with Muhammad Hijaab in this stance! He seems a very self reflective person.
He has a pure heart ❤️ and the Courage of a lion.
I apreciate mohamed hijab coming out to talk about his weakness and working on his
It looks like he resonates with the Ghazalian way of tasawwuf. If that doesn't fix him (through his spiritual guide), nothing will.
SubhannAllah, someone who worked hard to be knowledgable, and relies on Allah, and uses his knowledge to fight the arrogants! This man is not arrogant. He is a lion. الله يرحم أحمد ديات. He reminds me of him.
Why is the interview so short? It felt like we only just started when it ended.
I think he’s not that arrogant but rather forceful. He can become quite the opponent with people who try to straw man him! In general I find him a compelling speaker and mostly agree with him, even if I’m not Muslim
I really like that he is never intimated by the arrogant islamophobes, so they label him as arrogant
The problem with us Muslims we have become afraid of speaking the truth and finding excuses to justify the bigotry questions, whereas the reality is that women wearing a skirt, gays, lesbians, and having sex before marriage is not the norm but an alien thing.
But, Whether it be cousin marriage or arranged marriages those things are not in the minority but rather in the majority it's just we are getting brainwashed into thinking Western minority master is the right and the majority is in the wrong..
And another thing we get quite often is Muslims are backward... Again. no in reality Muslims are the forward ones and the Western ideology/ mentality is going backward, the only modern thing about the Western world is their surroundings and other nonsense like having sex before marriage, gays, lesbians, prostitution, and women wearing next to nothing is nothing new but goes back to the cave days
Yeah I don't get the shock at cousin marriage tbh. I do have some cousins that were like siblings to me growing up so ofc I wouldn't marry them but other cousins would be fine. Arranged marriage just has a bad image and gets confused as forced marriage.
You need to cut our Muslim brothers and sisters some slack, post 9/11 we've been under a 24/7/365 media bombardment along with endless false flag operations, and mountains of cases of social engineering. If it was a level playing field, no Muslim would cower to profess their faith to the extent they do today. The new video on blogging theology about internalized Islamophobia is an excellent dive into the topic.
@@greatcaledonianpenicillin5378 See what's happening here we've been brainwashed into thinking what is right is wrong and what is wrong right.
If Muslims aren't backward, why is the Islamic world an abject failure and so many Muslims choosing to leave Islam? Ask Hijab about the 23% apostasy rate.
@@greatcaledonianpenicillin5378 Arranged marriage is forced marriage and marriage between cousins prone to causing the genetic defects you burden the NHS with.
He is not arrogant but confident and proud to be a muslim
Mashallah it is really a good topic to discuss with. I think by bringing kinds of discussions indeed the new generation who have no idea of the side effects of being arrogant will learn more and will make them understand about their behaviour which eventually lead them to a better understanding and guid them to the right path
Why does the camera angle change every second? It makes it very hard to watch
"Advice does not benifit the arrogant. Situations do" - Mohammed Hijab
i was searching for this guy ramy from the first time i saw him on the 3 muslims ... this guy is smart .. actually very smart .. listens very well .. he is very logical and a person that i preceeve to change faster when he is convinced .. will folllowwww he is good
I love the self introspection 💜 May Allah bless and protect those who spread the Deen.
The good thing is that he is self aware and works towards fixing it. The worst would be if you're in denial or you don't care
I think you're bold in expression and action but not arrogant 👍
Never heard of this brother up until the war on Gaza and he’s debates with that idiot Morgan…like the fact he knows what he’s talking about..we need more representation like him in Islam…
Hijab is the man.
Hes not arrogant. Just look at how he speaks with bros and this host. He only deals with arrogance by repudiating it with the same thing 🙄 so people like piers ben shakira deserve arrogance
You’re spot on, brother! But ben shakira is crazy
This man is so clear and true. He answers straight from the ❤️
yes, masha Allah
Very much appreciated the final section - self reflection, and focussed istaghfar, will lead us closer to Allah, InshaAllah
mdhijab is definetly not an arrogant man, but the people who view him as arrogant is either ignorant and biased or just below average, intellectualy and just typical. It's an awful feeling to get named as arrogant and I think people who do claim someone is arrogant need to stop and rather challenge their suspect appropriatley.
Total nonsense. His arrogance is obvious to anyone, doesn't mean he is stupid or ignorant. But the man is indeed non humble
@@spartabricshe is stupid. On piers morgan he just made up his own figure about 100:1 death ratio and people blindly follow what he says even a quarter of that ratio is no where near the truth. Having these people spout total nonsense is stupidity
@@spartabricsits not obvious to me and im part of anyone.....so your assertion doesn't hold water
Lol 😂 I think this guy is arrogant to the highest level of arrogance.
@@waelharp4060 I am really wondering what is arrogance then for the ones claiming that this is not arrogance??
JazhakAllah Khairan to both of you and specially to Mohammad Hijab. He is doing a lot.
Mash’Allah he is a brother. We are proud of May Allah protect him.Ameen
Alhumdilah he is amazing
Pride comes before downfall.
(قال إن الله اصطفاه عليكم وزاده بسطةً في العلم والجسم)
I remember brother Hijab every time I read this verse: (He said, "Indeed, Allah has chosen him over you and has increased him abundantly in knowledge and stature) Chapter 2:247
I don’t think he is arrogant it appears so with him because he doesn’t put up with no disrespect whatsoever he will fight back. He is able to go tow to tow with anyone. Intellectually and fizically if nessasery .
His honesty and self- awareness in answering the question is refreshing, MashaAllah. Everyone one has flaws in their character. The best person is the one who can identify his flaw and work to fix it. May Allah reward Br Hijab for his efforts.
Love ur videos guys. 1 improvement i think yall can make is try not to cut between camera angles at such short intervals. It makes it too jumpy. Other then that u guys r doin an amazing job Alhumdulillah
May Allah bless you! We are working on fixing that for future videos inshaAllah. Stay tuned!
Hijab accepted this interview and accepted the question, this immensely signifies he has no arrogance.
My heart smiles hearing Mohammad's response.❤
As he faces the world bringing Islam to many seekers, he also comes strong defending that which is right and morally just, to the best of his ability. Approaching 'arrogant ' people with double their arrogance.
At the same time he works continuously on his personal striving to perfect himself for Allah(swt). May he succeed in such aspirations. At such a heavy and desperate time of wanting justice for Palestinian, Mohammad Hijab comes at the perfect time calling hypocrisy for what it is. Alhamdulillah
Alhamdulillah people dont wanna give the bro credit
❤❤❤ Alhamdulilah for this
Imam Malik said when a man begins to praise himself he has lost all his Honor
Imam Malek was an Arab from Quraish Tribe. What is your thoughts about these three?
Imam Malik was a Yemeni you iidiot.@@uniuni8855
It takes a BIG man to admit his weakness. Well done Hijab.
you are not arrogant brother, we appreciate you for always standing up for us. may Allah answer your supplications and grant you lots of kheir.
True intelligence lies in recognizing one's own limitations as a human being. The greater the intelligence, the deeper the humility, as it brings a clear understanding of our finite nature. And in this realization, we acknowledge that everything we have and are, has been provided to us by Allah, not from ourselves.
Allah swa protect our brother Ameen
He is not arrogant at all - lovely brother IMO
Love this video, the honesty and the perspective on controversial topics (we are exceptions to the rule in the west)
Great clip! Note to the editor: there were too many camera angle changes and cuts, slow it down! Its distracting :)
Hes so confident, i hope my son becomes a confident man.
He is to manage his emotions especially when he feels proved. Keep yr cool! Is not easy but u wil be more acceptable to a lot more people. Avoid hitting your opponent ‘below the belt’
Beautiful discussion! Thank you
MashãAllāh, but you need to sort your camera switching out, too quick - making me dizzy.
i'm not a muslim, don't care about religion...But Mohammed Hijab sometimes speak nothing but the truth...
This is not arrogance, this is pride to be a muslim. Also he has a certain (in a good way) cheekiness in his eyes, when dealing with bigots. I think he has a lot of fun.
the switching of the cameras is too much tone it down abit
I love that Hijab gets to the crux of structural racism in the Western narrative. The dominant ethic is not that of the Global South.
Don't need to watch the video. It is justified pride, strengh and courage. Allahuma barik.
Hijab is a strong person not an arrogant one. Nowadays, people hate those who tell and truth and bring good reformations in the community. Many are living a delusional lifestyle and don't want to be told the truth or corrected.
Thanks for this.
A little advice for video editing. Please reduce the cuts . It jumps a lot from one camera to rhe other to the point it is very distracting. Pleae give each time enough time before cutting to the other.
Barak allah feekom
Great conversation
Mashallah
So proud of Hijab. First time i saw him 6 years ago when his videos popped up, i knew he was something special. Went over to Speakers corner just a few times to meet him in the summer of 2020
Ma sha Allah brother. You speak up for the truth that's why they see you as arrogant person. We become passionate about what we believe in.
Arrogance is needed at the right timing.
If I punch you and you punch me back are you a bad guy?
You are reacting to what happened.
I don't know about his example . I'm LGBT and have whites, Mexicans, Arabs and people ask me all sorts of uncomfortable questions. Some out of malice, but most out of pure curiosity.
As someone who isn't Muslim, I can say some of the questions I've asked Muslims were unknowingly rude. But that's how we learn.
Also many of us do stick up for Muslims. Yes you are strange to us, but we are strange to everyone so most of us get it. Same reason why many of us are pro Palestine even though homosexuality and transexuals are illegal there.
Hi,
Hope you are well.
I'm a revert Muslim myself and one of the first questions I asked before becoming Muslim was "Is Islam homophobic?", because I care deeply about my family and friends that see themselves that way. And I discovered just as with any sin in islam, it is haram for us to judge the sinner, because we are all sinners at the end of the day. Mohammed Hijab is clearly a very intelligent brother, and he has done a lot of good work so I cannot discredit him for that, but to be honest with you I don't see eye to eye with his approach on certain things.
Thing to remember is Islam is a forgiving, merciful way of life, so please don't generate an image of it based on any of us, please refer to the life of the Prophet Muhammad (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who exercised so much mercy even to the tribe of Taif, who tortured him by throwing stones at him for hours until he bled from head to toe, and when given the option to destroy them all, he still asked for them to be saved. This is the man who we are supposed to look up to.
I can't clearly understand the hidden reasons for you to be whatever you are now! But in Islam Allah Warren the believers and disbelievers don't follow the devil's step In Islam, we know there's a judgment day where we will stand in front of Allah to weigh up our good/bad deeds.
The only advise for you if you will keep living your life based on earthly imagination and culturally life, you'll fall into devil's followers, Allah it's not Human being or old man with white beard. Islam will give you the right perspective about how you should be, and what you have to do in your life.
If you have enough intelligence you have to ask yourself what's the purpose behind what you've been created for.
@@holaco5697
🤷🏽♀️ O well.
is there a full podcast for this
This man's a top man! Been watching his videos for a few years and he never disappoints. He's helped me so much in going out of my comfort zone and being a better me!
You have to be arrogant to an arrogant person. Well said hijab
hijab is fearless when it's all about truth and pointing them. that's why it felt like arrogance bcz that's what we were doing for the decades.
I admire Mohammed hijab for not getting intimidated by bullies of western media. If you don’t talk out loud and firmly to make your point people don’t take you seriously.
If we want to call people to Islam we need to live Islam no matter how hard it’s, be kind,empathise, helpfu, compassionate
May Allah reward you both.
When a person is knowledgeable and assertive when communicating and others don't like what you're stating, even or especially when it is truth, they call that person 'arrogant'
Because brother Mo speaks the truth so he becomes arrogant, that what people make it out.
In fact he’s brilliant ❤❤❤❤and we love for the sake of Allah.
Unite the whole Ummah
He's not arrogant. Being confident may seem arrgant to others but people call him arrogant because they can't handle his intelligence.
Mashallah, i ve been watching Hijab s debates and videos for a long time. And i think his aproach is exactly the right aproach. You cant be humble if it s contra productive with certain people you are adressing. And hijab has a very good way to handle things. His character and representation as a muslim is mashaallah very nice. May Allah give him more knowledge and courage. İnspiration for you g muslims
"The oxford graduate", i wasn't ready for that one again 😂😂😂
Lovely interview ma shaa Allah
May Allah reward you my brother Muhammed, you do have a good heart, and in the day of judgement Allah will look at your heart.😢
Spot on. Had the same assessment of you. A little vain but no arrogance.

@hijab i dreamt of this yesterday and i woke up to el fajr and prayed ... it is the only thing i feel ... i pray always to god to remove this part from me .. i didnt know the word vanity till u explained the feeling ... i really need to remove it ... finally no one see it alhamdollah and it took years and years for me .... but by my self ... i think i am an arrogant person and it hurt ... bec every prayer i pray to god to remove this part of me ... i am really only wanting the ending ................. :)
Yes it's very true....
