im a new revert alhamdelillah. i used to play video games a lot, listen to music, smoke weed..... let me tell you it might feel good in the moment but at the end of the day, you feel empty and you feel depressed. I love this lecture because he hits everything spot on. When I have children insh a Allah i won't allow tv/violent games, However it is very important as Muslims to have good fun safe alternatives, otherwise the kids will end up going to all of this bad stuff.
Brother I will give you a remedy. Find your favourite reciter of Quran (mine is Minshawi in maqaam Nahawand). Listen to the recitation, find those portions (may take a few weeks) which impact and move the heart. Next stage listen to these portions, repeated over and over again, hours a day, till the tears start streaming. This will undo the damage that music had done to the heart, and soon, insha Allah, after a year or two the heart will no longer desire music. This is a treatment I came upon by accidentally and I no longer listen to music with intent for a decade now. The Quran is a cure.
I have a problem with video games, especially war games. Just realized I have 4,000 hours playtime (i saw it on the program log), that is 166 days!! and I only know 3 Surahs!! What the hell!! I even forgot Arabic. This is a wake up call for me
We never had a TV in our parents home. After marriage I and my husband decided not to have one. Yet today the greatest fitna is the internet. I'm battling it all the time and I pray to Allah to grant me strength to overcome the obsession and have mercy on my family and the Muslim youth. May Allah guide all those Muslims who are addicted to gaming, pornography, etc. Ameen
Assalamul alaikum, my name is Abdul Rauf from Ghana but living in Germany for the past seven years. I just banned television in my home in Ghana and here too. Alhamdulillah that I did.
hi sister this is for you may Allah bless you see all these links, czcams.com/users/YasminMogahedOnlinevideos and this too will help you czcams.com/users/MuftiMenkRoxvideos THERE are many good brothers who teaches like him the beauty of islam czcams.com/users/results?search_query=nouman+ali+khan may Allah bless them all.
As a young adult who lived in North America most of his life, I watched this video for the first time a few years ago. It opened my eyes to not only the influence of the media on the world but also how almost each of these things effected me in a negative way from the age of 10 onwards. I am 26 now and have learned to be more wary of these things. InshAllah, I hope Allah allows all the young muslims like me who got trapped by music, movies, gaming, etc. to see it for what it is -- just another distraction to keep us from our true goal to worship Allah. Ameen.
This is so scary, the way we normalise all this music, films, games and downplay the seriousness of them and the impact they can have, not realising how harmful they are. May Allah protect us all, ameen.
" I wish I could sue the people for the empty lyrics in my brain" HAHAHAHA I love this man like he is my long lost brother but I wish for him to no longer be long lost, thanks for recording your words, I hope it lasts forever.

I used to love music. Hamdulilah by Allahs will now with podcasts becoming more popular... I only listen to talks, debates and Qu'ran recitations and discussions. It's honestly shifted my perspective
Dear Hazma Yūsuf, I don’t know if you know my mom through your scholars but I think you know her because she talks about you. My mom is Erim Chaudhury and she studied with Habib Ali. I find your speeches inspirational because I did an experiment with listening to music and the Quran at the same time and I’ve realized it’s true. For some reason my soul can hear it differently now. Hell’s sounds is being played within it.
Alhamdulillah I grew up with no TV. Alhamdulillah whole life hardly ever saw any film or drama. Alhamdulillah for everything. I just worked so hard in life. I'm really happy.
Ive always tried my best to stay away from these influences and im reaching a point in my life where I want to take control of my life. Inshallah pray for me brothers and sisters
Assalamu alaykum thank you for posting! I reverted some seven months ago and am well aware of everything you're talking about here. At first, I wondered WHY Allah SWT let me wander SO far into the dark before calling me back to His service. Why I lived with sorrow in my heart for so many years. I had wished I never knew these things. But I have come to understand. As quickly as others are running away from their fitra...I am running towards mine. I appreciate with my whole heart the love and light Allah SWT showed me when He answered my call that filled that hole in my heart and now want to fill it more each day. My sincerest thanks for your tireless efforts to warn the ummah of what we're up against. JazakAllah khayran to ALL who strive in the way of Islam!

Purification of the Heart: Signs, Symptoms and Cures of the Spiritual Diseases of the Heart The Content of Character - Ethical Sayings of the Prophet Muhammad Two books by Hamza
it's incredible how relevant this lecture is today, in this time of near societal collapse and the race riots, a global pandemic and global financial meltdown. We have to heed these warnings, but i fear it may be too late. may Allah (SWT) protect us all
You are very sophisticated sheikh I cannot stop listening to your interpretations which makes me think, and i hope your word gets further and helps people.
This is my second or third time listening to this lecture. I have a good friend that I pray will watch this someday. I pray He will wake up and see the true evil of this world ... To just take steps toward God and not fall into Satan's trap. I think if people would just give this a little thought and ask God for guidance, He would guide them.
الحمدالله ربا العالمين ما شاءالله May Allah bless Sheikh Hamza and protect all our youths and may Allah open the hearts of our young people to understand the noble Quran and the salaath !!! AhMeen !!!!!
i played games while listening to lectures. i made sure to play games that are lacking in too much attention so i can give a lot more to the lecture.. so i guess logic in one own
Everything Yusuf Hamza says I already know. I figured all this out once I got older and wisdom knowledge and understanding came to me by God. Many comments are like " you so right" well duhh his right.
Beautiful lecture, very articulately spoken and delivered. Jazak Allah, Sheikh. May Allah protect you. I want to know who the disfunctionally unsound people are who gave this a thumbs down.
So rightly said Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, "The Jihad of this age is between EARS because this is the battlefield is the MIND of the HUMAN being and the EXTENSION OF THE HEART"
Allah (SWT) bless Sheikh Hamza, what a powerful lesson, I know this lesson a few years old, and I know things have gotten even worse, God help us. For those of you that pushed the dislike button, are you following and enjoying the steps of shaytan? there was nothing that he said that was not true. We need teachers like him to remind us of what is happening.
...the way Sheikh pronaunces Arabic keep amazing me. WOW...and then that is the keyword I needed to hear NUMEROLOGY...since a year ago number 49 keeps popping up in front of my eyes.. !? بارك الله بك يا شيخ!
@mustafe Ali when you speak like this to others you make yourself and others who people associate with you make them look bad and evil. Does your religion not forbid foul language? Speak good or remain silent. Don't be an ignorant fool

While we were yet sinner, Christ died for us bro why are you disrespecting the Prophet pbuh? Please don’t do such things and mock him. Be respectful at the very least brother 👍🏼
The moment I started remembering my dreams the morning after I realized all the junk my mind was being fed, most of it even passively just passing by TVs, random jingles, ads, and images. Some of the dreams are so sick and frightening, it’s scary to imagine it’s coming out your own subconscious. I had this disgusting dream that a yellow cat with no arms and legs was going door to door to seek shelter and I kept closing each door and saying no to it every time it was such a sick dream full of ugly sights of dismemberment and disgust I have no idea how I can even have dreams like that. I definitely have less dreams like that once you pay more attention, seek protection, and limit yourself to content like this. But it’s hard work! Definitely.
Assalamu alaykom wa rahma'tullah, I can see the relation, however, Hannah is the name of the mother of Maryam [as], so we have to be careful and not go too far. Jazaka Allahu khayran wa barak Allahu feeke.
He was saying that people that worship the devil like to read back wards, and in this case her name was hannah which wasn't her real. But also I'm a Muslim and my daughters name is hannah but we didn't use it for that purpose.
.mASHALLAH, THIS REALLY OPENED MY EYES UP, THANKS FOR THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT SPEECH, JUST 900 LIKES ITSELFS SHOWS THAT HOW MUCH SHAITAN HAS DOOMED PEOPLE
Subhan Allah may Allah give him the heighest station in Janna. His interpretation and analysis is so deep it takes your brains to places that you would never ever go there...he takes you places Subhan Allah he is Lord's gift to us..Alhamdulliah
I never thought about TV and Music like that, it's so mad. I'm defo homeschooling my children in the future and hopefully not keeping a TV at home in'sha'Allah
This things about Islam the signs of the ends days need to taught in Islamic class and Jummah Kutba. Hamza Yusef is one of the best Muslims of this generation.
The problem with TV and social media etc. is that it is so time consuming and a total distraction from reaching a spiritual state. From reaching a closeness to Allah. People don’t sit and just ponder anymore. People don’t wonder anymore. Just by observing people who watch TV or on their phones one can easily see how distracted they are. They won’t even here you, when you call them. The ”black box” pulls you in and it literally grabs and holds you like a devil. What happened to our society is a shame. We’re loosing every aspect that makes us human. Humans are not supposed to be antisocial beings who are on their phones all day. Doing nothing but staring on a black screen. Becoming nothing in life...
The level of the trials are too great we need guidance from Ruh, The Spirit of God. If we try ourselves with just our brain and our knowledge we're going to be bewildered, some will have mental disorder
kudo you do not realize because you are BRAINWASH there is no afterlife there is no evidence. And there is nothing wrong with music or freedom freedom does not mean that people have to misbehave.And if there is a god I have nothing to prove I am a good person do no harm to anyone.But to think all the time, God would be happy with how I live is terrible And Muslims are so scared that they will go to hell, that is absurd.
Salam Alaykum Waramotullahi Wabarakatu , Alhamdullahi Rabbi Alamin, Shaykh thanks so much for wake up call, sharing and imparting knowledge on us. May Allah SWT bless you and others propagating our beautiful Deen positively. Jazakallahu Khairan
Thank you for bringing out the 'malady of relativity'. If we don't have a spine of steel formed by High Principles, which hold us Up and Straight, we are bound to deviate. High Principles NEVER CHANGE with 'modern views, etc. Like 'Do not do unto others, what you wouldn't like others to do unto you.' It is clear, it is eternal, if one practice just that commandment Jesus gave us, you will never wrong anyone and your life will have the quality only a pure heart aligned to God's ways can give us. We just have to adhere to High Values and Principles given to us by God, not make up our own relative, or adapt to 'whatever everybody is doing'. Thank you again. I am an Epichristian, which means Above What is now known as 'Christianity, which Allah warns you against saying, 'Do not befriend, those Christians, and dJews who befriend each other/. What is called 'Christian' in our days, it hurts me to say it, but has nothing to do with Christendom as taught by Jesus. The Vatican has been invaded by demons and is now - as Vladimir Putin publicly said - under the control of a very dangerous man who is taking advantage of his position to establish a global system of Communism. Thank God Putin dares to go beyond politics and speak the Truth. You have the Koran, which has never changed. That is a magnificent record and I feel part of the strength that holds a true Moslem up right. I descend from someone that had a strong respect for the Principles that hold Islam strong. He and Saladin were respectful of each other, although each one found himself holding war against each other., Saladin gave him a name for which he was known afterwards, it is Saladin who called him 'El Cid' name for which he was later known. I enjoy very much the intelligence of your teachings and welcome the fact that they are available to all of us, Thank you again. I stay in Peace and wish you the best for helping people to be aware that their consiousness is in great danger.
Shaykh is right, I was playing a lot of games as a child, and it really hurt me in the long run. I mis-prioritized and self-sabotaged my life carelessly. I enjoy games, but I realize there is a lot of life to miss out on, and I'm a lot happier, I'm reading, exercising, studying. I do think that there is something deeply problematic about the materialism, violence, sexually explicit overtones. I also think it is possible to craft good games and experiences, I like Nintendo, and some of the more kid friendly stuff, but I'm old now, I'm not a kid, I just don't have the time. I was never interested in the GTA or FPS shooters to begin with. I only recently in the last few years managed to shake myself out of it, and I'm really reluctant to pick up something new, for fear of getting sucked back into it.
I also think that video games can be highly artistic, and the discourse around video games is very black and white; Either it's benign, or it's the spawn of the devil, nothing in between. I don't think video games are responsible for/cause violence. I simply think they are an outlet for aggressive tendencies, possibly destructive ones, and that the discourse surrounding video-games is quite divisive, and it doesn't need to be. People are violent, and art reflects people. The types of games are broad and far reaching, there are puzzle games, action, adventure, role-playing games, tactical, board games, real time strategy, fighting, platforming, shooter, point and click, card games, arcade, 3rd Person, Indie. While it's true that FPS games are the most popular genre right now, the beauty about creating simulations is we can dream something better, and we should. I deeply respect/love Shaykh HY, but I also think that there is a lot of potential for VGs. Skepticism is good, I don't think it's so clear cut to paint with broad brush strokes.
@@nasirmeraj618 i love hamzah yusuf but watching things like this (black and white) categorising makes me hate myself really, i mean what should i do sit all day pray in masjid and read quran, even hamazah yusuf doesnt do that, sometimes we need to take things lightely and its good to fire up some game online and just play for a while. I have tried before to stop lisnteting to music and movies and videogames for several years, i was super religious, was feeling great for a while, but with time i got depression severe depression, and almost lost all my hobbies, ended up feeling a void like no other, like everyday is just a drag... the common man like us is not a sheikh, we are not travelling the world for dawah or having a college to run like sheikh hamzah yusuf, not everyone is destin to be a sheikh, straight up, so i think the best thing we can do is being in the middle, i cannot live like hamzah yusuf even if i tried, the guy is a genius and have studied islam from one of the biggest ulama in our times (in the malaki sect), i mean if i had his genius and got oppurtinity to study with an alim i would not have time to play videogames anyway, and i will be having little to no knowldge about it which is apparent when he addressed videgames, Mind you my comment could b a cope... an excuse i make to tell myself to avoid what hes saying and presenting, allah knows best.
@@Phantom-ez4zv Insh'Allah, Ameen, may Allah SWA facilitate for you, and strengthen your resolve and discipline, and across the Ummah. Genius takes work, and habit.
@@nasirmeraj618 yes you can increase knowledge by hard work and discipline, but not everyone will be einstein, im good at sports naturally gifted in physical things, i know my strengths. You seem like u went straight to "judge mode" for what i said instead of continuing on the main topic of video games, im not looking for sympathy or encouragement, was speaking my mind.
The white Dot at 13:09 our beloved sheikh is talking about my Elder brother described it to me when i was very young similar to the sign of peace the Chinese have, my brother said the dot is good or bad and is whatever you feed it when either consumes your heart your either enlightened by Allah swt or become Evil in sin.. May Allah reward my brother in his efforts he made and grant him jannah Insha allah and bless our sheikh Insha allah for making it clear for me today Ameen 🙏

it's incredible how relevant this lecture is today, in this time of near societal collapse and the race riots, a global pandemic and global financial meltdown. We have to heed these warnings, but i fear it may be too late. may Allah (SWT) protect us all
I am still young hamdoulillah and I stopped watching TV since a long time.
❤💛❤
Good for you, Barak Allah feeki
You are very sophisticated sheikh I cannot stop listening to your interpretations which makes me think, and i hope your word gets further and helps people.
Sheikh Hamza Yusuf is in a league of his own. We are so lucky to have him in our Ummah. May Allah (SWT) protect him. (copy-pasted from @bluegarson)
This is my second or third time listening to this lecture. I have a good friend that I pray will watch this someday. I pray He will wake up and see the true evil of this world ... To just take steps toward God and not fall into Satan's trap. I think if people would just give this a little thought and ask God for guidance, He would guide them.
الحمدالله ربا العالمين ما شاءالله
May Allah bless Sheikh Hamza and protect all our youths and may Allah open the hearts of our young people to understand the noble Quran and the salaath !!!
AhMeen !!!!!
i played games while listening to lectures. i made sure to play games that are lacking in too much attention so i can give a lot more to the lecture.. so i guess logic in one own
Great sheigh great speech, very powerfull!!! Alhamdoullileh!! We must remember this speech every 6 months.
Alhamdulilah!
Everything Yusuf Hamza says I already know. I figured all this out once I got older and wisdom knowledge and understanding came to me by God.
Many comments are like " you so right" well duhh his right.
Beautiful lecture, very articulately spoken and delivered. Jazak Allah, Sheikh. May Allah protect you. I want to know who the disfunctionally unsound people are who gave this a thumbs down.
So rightly said Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, "The Jihad of this age is between EARS because this is the battlefield is the MIND of the HUMAN being and the EXTENSION OF THE HEART"
It is easier to lie to somebody than to convince one, we live in a very corrupted world, be safe and may allah swt guide and help you in your Life
Allah (SWT) bless Sheikh Hamza, what a powerful lesson, I know this lesson a few years old, and I know things have gotten even worse, God help us. For those of you that pushed the dislike button, are you following and enjoying the steps of shaytan? there was nothing that he said that was not true. We need teachers like him to remind us of what is happening.
It’s clear as day light 💯
I haven't stopped TV and music but I try and listen to good things. I never watch things with profanity - well i try
i watched that Video many times the last 6 Years ! Alhamdulillah, Thank you so much !
*LONG OVERDUE LECTURE. JazakallahKheir. i wish have millions to sponsor great programs like this. Please make DUA!!*
Great lecture. Mashaallah
Beautiful lecture by Shaykh Hamza, May Allah protect him and inspire us to follow him in his good deeds. He's so right
...the way Sheikh pronaunces Arabic keep amazing me. WOW...and then that is the keyword I needed to hear NUMEROLOGY...since a year ago number 49 keeps popping up in front of my eyes.. !?
بارك الله بك يا شيخ!
Asc may Allah grant you long life with a great deed I love you logic. I watch your lectures many times you open my eyes each time I watch them.
This changed my life
One of the brave soldiers with balls - is bro Hamza Yusuf !!!
Shame I don't see other Muslims rise like him and speak truth!
Beautiful advise! Thanks so much!
This is 6 years ago, now things are far more explicit.
America and Uk got best Islamic talent.I hope with in 50 years Islamic center will be USA and Uk
Ameen...
Islam is the truth n complete submission to Almighty Allah SWT...
@mustafe Ali when you speak like this to others you make yourself and others who people associate with you make them look bad and evil. Does your religion not forbid foul language? Speak good or remain silent. Don't be an ignorant fool
@Jesus, name above all names hello my dear sweety, seems like your bible is so pure right yes very very pure,holy... judges 19.25 gang bang😆.2 samuel16.22 with father's wives🙄
@Jesus, name above all names how pure of you and your faith😄
While we were yet sinner, Christ died for us bro why are you disrespecting the Prophet pbuh? Please don’t do such things and mock him. Be respectful at the very least brother 👍🏼
Mashal Allah,may Almighty Allah continue to shower His blessings u n all thy believers.
Aameen
The moment I started remembering my dreams the morning after I realized all the junk my mind was being fed, most of it even passively just passing by TVs, random jingles, ads, and images. Some of the dreams are so sick and frightening, it’s scary to imagine it’s coming out your own subconscious. I had this disgusting dream that a yellow cat with no arms and legs was going door to door to seek shelter and I kept closing each door and saying no to it every time it was such a sick dream full of ugly sights of dismemberment and disgust I have no idea how I can even have dreams like that. I definitely have less dreams like that once you pay more attention, seek protection, and limit yourself to content like this. But it’s hard work! Definitely.
Assalamu alaykom wa rahma'tullah, I can see the relation, however, Hannah is the name of the mother of Maryam [as], so we have to be careful and not go too far. Jazaka Allahu khayran wa barak Allahu feeke.
He was saying that people that worship the devil like to read back wards, and in this case her name was hannah which wasn't her real. But also I'm a Muslim and my daughters name is hannah but we didn't use it for that purpose.
.mASHALLAH, THIS REALLY OPENED MY EYES UP, THANKS FOR THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT SPEECH, JUST 900 LIKES ITSELFS SHOWS THAT HOW MUCH SHAITAN HAS DOOMED PEOPLE
I hope he visits Minneapolis the Somali community love him here💗
May Allah bless shaykh Hamza. He is a true blessing to this ummah.
that shekh is amazing great scholar.
Jazak Allah the heaven, you exposed them very well! now you do not forget to protect yourself with ( morning and evening "Zekir")
Sheikh Hamza greatest love respect for you since you are delivering and exuding greatest love for our prophet saw. What u say captures my soul
Subhan Allah may Allah give him the heighest station in Janna. His interpretation and analysis is so deep it takes your brains to places that you would never ever go there...he takes you places Subhan Allah he is Lord's gift to us..Alhamdulliah
I never thought about TV and Music like that, it's so mad. I'm defo homeschooling my children in the future and hopefully not keeping a TV at home in'sha'Allah
Excellent video MashaAllah
Ney and kanun(qanun) are the best tunes which will set your mood and frequency right! When you listen, you will feel the peace in your heart and soul.
But when it came to music industry everything change 360 and lead people to astray.
This this needs to be taught everywhere
Allahumma sholli ala sayyidina Muhammad, waalaa alii sayyidina Muhammad.
Fitn means trials and tribulations
رحمت الله عليك وعلى والديك يا شيخ حمزه
Absolutely amazing, salaam sir hamzah
This things about Islam the signs of the ends days need to taught in Islamic class and Jummah Kutba. Hamza Yusef is one of the best Muslims of this generation.
Who else listens to sheikh Hamza to calm themselves? I know it's not only me.
Yeah, me too
Hamza Yusuf is part of the devil's trap. A wolf in sheep's clothing
His voice is definitely relaxing
The problem with TV and social media etc. is that it is so time consuming and a total distraction from reaching a spiritual state. From reaching a closeness to Allah. People don’t sit and just ponder anymore. People don’t wonder anymore. Just by observing people who watch TV or on their phones one can easily see how distracted they are. They won’t even here you, when you call them. The ”black box” pulls you in and it literally grabs and holds you like a devil. What happened to our society is a shame. We’re loosing every aspect that makes us human. Humans are not supposed to be antisocial beings who are on their phones all day. Doing nothing but staring on a black screen. Becoming nothing in life...
*hear
Alhamdulillah,I watched this video repeatedly,it is one of his best lectures, may Allah be pleased with brother Hamza efforts ❤
Listening to this about 6 years later and 46:20 is sadly still our position.
Can we download the presentation slides and references. Thank you
The level of the trials are too great we need guidance from Ruh, The Spirit of God. If we try ourselves with just our brain and our knowledge we're going to be bewildered, some will have mental disorder
Mystic Trader44 i love america and europe i love my freedom. and i love music movie and nice wine men and the wind through my hair🎹🍺🍺🎸🎸🍸🍸🥩🥩🌈👙👙👙👙💄
Mystic Trader44 Guidance only comes from Allah.
kudo think you are the slave of backward medieval rituals and customs.
kudo you do not realize because you are BRAINWASH there is no afterlife there is no evidence. And there is nothing wrong with music or freedom freedom does not mean that people have to misbehave.And if there is a god I have nothing to prove I am a good person do no harm to anyone.But to think all the time, God would be happy with how I live is terrible And Muslims are so scared that they will go to hell, that is absurd.
Listening to shaykh in Ramadan 2021 ❤️
Salam Alaykum Waramotullahi Wabarakatu , Alhamdullahi Rabbi Alamin, Shaykh thanks so much for wake up call, sharing and imparting knowledge on us. May Allah SWT bless you and others propagating our beautiful Deen positively. Jazakallahu Khairan
Thank you for bringing out the 'malady of relativity'. If we don't have a spine of steel formed by High Principles, which hold us Up and Straight, we are bound to deviate. High Principles NEVER CHANGE with 'modern views, etc. Like 'Do not do unto others, what you wouldn't like others to do unto you.' It is clear, it is eternal, if one practice just that commandment Jesus gave us, you will never wrong anyone and your life will have the quality only a pure heart aligned to God's ways can give us. We just have to adhere to High Values and Principles given to us by God, not make up our own relative, or adapt to 'whatever everybody is doing'. Thank you again. I am an Epichristian, which means Above What is now known as 'Christianity, which Allah warns you against saying, 'Do not befriend, those Christians, and dJews who befriend each other/. What is called 'Christian' in our days, it hurts me to say it, but has nothing to do with Christendom as taught by Jesus. The Vatican has been invaded by demons and is now - as Vladimir Putin publicly said - under the control of a very dangerous man who is taking advantage of his position to establish a global system of Communism. Thank God Putin dares to go beyond politics and speak the Truth. You have the Koran, which has never changed. That is a magnificent record and I feel part of the strength that holds a true Moslem up right. I descend from someone that had a strong respect for the Principles that hold Islam strong. He and Saladin were respectful of each other, although each one found himself holding war against each other., Saladin gave him a name for which he was known afterwards, it is Saladin who called him 'El Cid' name for which he was later known. I enjoy very much the intelligence of your teachings and welcome the fact that they are available to all of us, Thank you again. I stay in Peace and wish you the best for helping people to be aware that their consiousness is in great danger.
thank you very much, I was humbled by reading your comment. may GOD bless you.
great words
Shaykh is right, I was playing a lot of games as a child, and it really hurt me in the long run. I mis-prioritized and self-sabotaged my life carelessly. I enjoy games, but I realize there is a lot of life to miss out on, and I'm a lot happier, I'm reading, exercising, studying. I do think that there is something deeply problematic about the materialism, violence, sexually explicit overtones. I also think it is possible to craft good games and experiences, I like Nintendo, and some of the more kid friendly stuff, but I'm old now, I'm not a kid, I just don't have the time. I was never interested in the GTA or FPS shooters to begin with. I only recently in the last few years managed to shake myself out of it, and I'm really reluctant to pick up something new, for fear of getting sucked back into it.
I also think that video games can be highly artistic, and the discourse around video games is very black and white; Either it's benign, or it's the spawn of the devil, nothing in between. I don't think video games are responsible for/cause violence. I simply think they are an outlet for aggressive tendencies, possibly destructive ones, and that the discourse surrounding video-games is quite divisive, and it doesn't need to be. People are violent, and art reflects people. The types of games are broad and far reaching, there are puzzle games, action, adventure, role-playing games, tactical, board games, real time strategy, fighting, platforming, shooter, point and click, card games, arcade, 3rd Person, Indie. While it's true that FPS games are the most popular genre right now, the beauty about creating simulations is we can dream something better, and we should. I deeply respect/love Shaykh HY, but I also think that there is a lot of potential for VGs. Skepticism is good, I don't think it's so clear cut to paint with broad brush strokes.
VidAngel, look it up
@@nasirmeraj618 i love hamzah yusuf but watching things like this (black and white) categorising makes me hate myself really, i mean what should i do sit all day pray in masjid and read quran, even hamazah yusuf doesnt do that, sometimes we need to take things lightely and its good to fire up some game online and just play for a while. I have tried before to stop lisnteting to music and movies and videogames for several years, i was super religious, was feeling great for a while, but with time i got depression severe depression, and almost lost all my hobbies, ended up feeling a void like no other, like everyday is just a drag... the common man like us is not a sheikh, we are not travelling the world for dawah or having a college to run like sheikh hamzah yusuf, not everyone is destin to be a sheikh, straight up, so i think the best thing we can do is being in the middle, i cannot live like hamzah yusuf even if i tried, the guy is a genius and have studied islam from one of the biggest ulama in our times (in the malaki sect), i mean if i had his genius and got oppurtinity to study with an alim i would not have time to play videogames anyway, and i will be having little to no knowldge about it which is apparent when he addressed videgames, Mind you my comment could b a cope... an excuse i make to tell myself to avoid what hes saying and presenting, allah knows best.
@@Phantom-ez4zv Insh'Allah, Ameen, may Allah SWA facilitate for you, and strengthen your resolve and discipline, and across the Ummah. Genius takes work, and habit.
@@nasirmeraj618 yes you can increase knowledge by hard work and discipline, but not everyone will be einstein, im good at sports naturally gifted in physical things, i know my strengths. You seem like u went straight to "judge mode" for what i said instead of continuing on the main topic of video games, im not looking for sympathy or encouragement, was speaking my mind.
Probably the best video on CZcams. I encourage others to also watch the Army of Satan series.
This is really nice I hope everything ne watching this has a good day inshallah
The white Dot at 13:09 our beloved sheikh is talking about my Elder brother described it to me when i was very young similar to the sign of peace the Chinese have, my brother said the dot is good or bad and is whatever you feed it when either consumes your heart your either enlightened by Allah swt or become Evil in sin.. May Allah reward my brother in his efforts he made and grant him jannah Insha allah and bless our sheikh Insha allah for making it clear for me today Ameen 🙏
God bless you Sheikh...
