Islam’s Origins: Myth and Material Evidence
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 04. 2019
- The traditional narrative of Islam’s origins centers on the career of the prophet Muhammad (d. 632 CE) in Arabia and the rapid spread of his movement throughout the Near East immediately after his death. Over the past half-century, however, scholars have come to realize that this picture is the product of the Islamic community of the eighth, ninth, and later centuries and that its goal of providing a satisfying narrative may not accurately reflect how Islam actually began and grew into the major world religion we know today. In this lecture, Fred M. Donner argues that a more historically accurate view of Islam’s origins has been hindered by the scarcity of documentary evidence from the seventh century and considers some of the key sources that may help us understand these momentous events in Islamic history.
00:04:44 Mecca with the Kaaba was polytheistic
00:07:00 Muhammad recites Quran and dies before a written Quran is completed
00:10:14 Mecca wanted Muhammad out. Yathrib (Medina) invited Muhammad over
00:13:50 Yathrib and local expansion
00:15:56 Islamic expansion
00:18:34 Problems with Muslim narrative
00:21:14 No one knows the beginning of Islam because there is no good evidence
00:24:14 Timeline of evidence sources
00:24:42 Quran likely underwent 'evolution' until about year 700
00:26:45 Early copy of Quran from the 7th century
00:28:19 What was this text from a scholar point of view
00:30:08 Problems with early written Arabic (early Quran)
00:33:10 Believers Movement
00:37:01 Documentary evidence that Islam mingled with other 'pious' groups (Jews, Christians)
00:46:04 Islam as we now know it starts around the years 690-700 (fishing; renaming; word use)
00:50:26 How modern science collect documentary evidence
00:57:23 Interview starts
00:57:46 Q1 Does finding new things make you buzzed?
01:01:24 Q2 How do modern Muslims view your work?
01:03:45 Q3 Are the Hadith still up for interpretation with new evidence?
01:07:40 Q4 Compare historical scholar types
01:10:56 Q5 Climate evidence of volcanos causing the up rise of Islam?
01:13:31 Q6 Why did the Believers not differ too much with other pious monotheists?
01:17:24 Q7 What led the Believers requiring to have to work with others and then stop?
01:21:38 Q8 Opportunities in Germany for Islamic studies...
01:25:45 Q9 Institutionalized Islam... Sufism?
01:29:09 Q10 Line between mystic and historic Muhammad
After you die, you'll know the truth.

Yeah this lecture is lacking
interesting lecture and talk. I thought I was unfamiliar with this guy, and then I was trying to tell my mom about what I was "learning"... about the "creation of Islam"... from this video, about a professor from Chicago studying arabic texts in Germany and Vienna, and then my mom asks "Is it Fred Donner? He's ___'s husband" oh wow lol! The professor's wife is one of my mom's best friends hahaha! crazy ;p
This was so interesting and fun 😆 !
Can you tell us why he has a patch of blue hair, please?
Well you should tell your mother that this guy is lying about Islam, if you want to learn about something ask it's people, you don't learn math from a literature teacher. also if you want to learn about a religion read it's book and see if it looks like the word of god or the word of men.
@@thefakewitchdoctor It looks like the result of an accident. Or maybe he wants to show some solidarity with the "woke" ?
The blue hair?
I so much appreciate this type of exchange of information. So many talks on CZcams are adversarial and distracting.
Imagine having to give this presentation 20 minutes after your granddaughter gives you a surprise makeover. Excellent composer given the circumstances.
Did she make his hair blue on the right side?
@@ArchKomposer yeah. Goofy granddaughter. I mean no full grown adult male would decide to die their own hair blue. Had to be his granddaughter right?
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..

I am wondering if that was some sort of political statement or a really terrible style choice.
The big problem with a lot of the archived materials is the missing digitalisation and online availability for everybody. This slows down the research worldwide. The decision to rather spend billions on other projects is taken by governments and the archive custodians. Some simply want to keep a control and power. To humiliate humans who must surrender and crawl on the doorsteps of their treasure vaults. With lengthy procedures and appointments. Nothing of this will be required if the stuff they hoard since centuries is finally made accessible in a dignifying fashion appropriate for a 21st century. And that these archive prison guards show more respect and less arrogance towards the millions of smart humans who will be able to discover far more in the collections than what a jealous bureaucratic hoarder will be able to read out between his coffee pauses, lunch times and holidays. Not to forget here that restrictions due to copy rights and cash grabbing business of state owned archives have to be terminated. For the sake of human right to its past without kisses to the feet of the archive priesthood.

Atheists mock God "apparently God speaks Arabic...." as was said here and either through ignorance or intent to distort historical information are surely the lowest of the low since they inadvertently, or with true intent do the very same work of the accursed Satan who has vowed to bring mankind down and away from the belief and faith in One True God and all His messengers from our Father Adam all the way down to the last and final Messenger and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

@@jairajsingh2983 What does your comment actually mean, anyway.?
The first part of it, makes no sense, and as for the second part, modern 20th century science proves the very existence of God, as these numerous scientific discoveries are present in the Quran. God created everything in existence , the Universe and all that's in it. Science is just a human word given to a human explanation to limited himan knowledge of our existence.
Look into ......"Scientific Miracles in the Qur'an "
This is why I always say if you mix Judaism and Christianity you get Islam. I like how this man said Islam is basically a monotheistic rival movement. He was also speaking the truth when we said modern Islam is just wahhabism spread by saudi oil money.
Not really
But to call Islam christian Judaism is not so wrong
Islam was there before saudi arabia.
Pretty ignorant statement. They aren’t even close to each other.

As far as i know, In the Quran, there was a very clear distinction given between the believers(muslims) and Non muslims(christians and jews) who were referred to as “the people of the book”.
There is literally a list of traits for a person to be a rightfull believer mentioned in the Quran itself.
Not quite... My understanding is that within the Quraan, anyone can be defined as a Muslim as long as they are righteous, belive in the last day, and in god regardless of their faith...
@@ems8290 Not Really. One can be a Muslim only when he accepts that there is only one God that is Allah and Allah’s messenger that is Mohammed. All others are Kafirs and Kafirs can live only if they pay Jizia. The other option is death by a Sword. People like you either knowingly spread a wrong information to pain Islam in a palatable form.

Allah is just a smoke screen because muhammad came up with such a lot of revelations on his own. Like the three that umar al Khatami came up with, suddenly muhammad said it was revelation.
She is right. It's known to all that there is no God in the sky. If Muhammad had said that he had written all these verses himself, no one would have believed him.He fooled the people by fearing that if you do not obey him then God above will punish you😂😂Even in the age of science, poor fool people believe in Him😂
could somebody tell me what he is saying at 01:00:54 - 01:01:00 . I am not native speaker and I try to follow from subtitle. But at the time, I can't comprhened.
“they’re still not open, we do not know what is inside them” English is my first language and that was hard to understand 😂
Very impressed . I truly appreciate all the details were given in this lecture. I loved the actual pronunciation for the words used as well in Arabic .

@Asadul Hasan Rasel Carbon dating is not an efficient method in aging. One of the 3 labs decided that these manuscripts go back to before muhamad birth. Bart Erhman admits in his book misquoting Jesus that the few translations/copying mistakes he found do not affect any of the basic Christianity believes such as the Holy Trinity, that Jesus is our ONLY LORD/GOD, his birth, his death on the Holy Cross, his resurrection. Only few Human typos and extremely few mistranslated words over about 4000 years of narration & 2000 of translations. The Birmingham copy is not the complete quran just a few pages of it.
@Asadul Hasan Rasel Every item carbon-dated is done in 3 different labs at the same time and each one of them dates such items differently than the other two labs. Each lab is very sure that his results are the best among the three different results. Try it yourself, take a piece of wood, leather, papers, fabric, pottery, etc.. without telling them the age of such item and let them age it. You will see, by yourself, that they will age it few hundred (maybe thousand) years old although it is a new item. Also, don't count on the BBC documentaries. BBC is fake media and almost 100% run by atheists/leftists who are financed by the British government.

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
Salam (Peace) -----------------
Nice! Although I would like you to re-examine the concept that God is sending prophets throughout time, but then stops at Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon Him).
Sure ! You wrote the current dogma, defined by the Abbassids. The very early arab believers were having another dogma. They were a sort of not rabbinic jews following an anti chalcedonic christianity, precisely Nasaras, arabs Nasaras. Nasara doest stand for Christian. They were nasara muhajirun who joined at Hijra, to call the Ghassanids armees to destroy the byzantium armees and take the control of Jerusalem. That is why the 1st real organisation was located in Damascus, by Muawyia 1st. Even the first shahada was not mentionning the rassul.
Again, the powerful dogma came 200 years later with Al Hajjaj and Al Mamun.
That dogma required to say that THE gospel was a corrupted Qur'an. But this gospel was the Diatessaron of the Nasara.
There are almost 150 different gospels, and nobody pretends that they were written by god and corrupted..., only the story of one guy : Issa. Not more.
The concept of chirk who defines the Massiyun, comes later as a construction of power. Nothing to do with faith.
I think worth you, muminun, to revisit your dogma. You are likely cousins to us in this great story.
Thank you for this most helpful and insightful lecture by someone who clearly has approached matters from the genuine research efforts to find historical truth! Much appreciated . More please.
I haven’t watched it yet, but it seems to me that a large population wanted their own hero instead of worshipping another.
@@CorePathway what?
@@muhammadeisa1459 People must be able to closely relate to a Prophet to use them to find God. When Europeans co-opted Jesus and made their iconography into their ideal: blond haired blue eyes fair skinned, the Prophet Muhammad grew from the same Abrahamic roots to appeal to a different population, one who had the background and traditions to appeal to a different population. I believe there have been many Prophet and saints. Zoroaster, Krishna, Gilgamesh, and countless others lost to time. God did not ignore the peoples of Asia, South America, Indonesia, China, Russia for millennia. He appeared to them and through their prophets and saints. The Baghavad Gita specifically explains how it’s easier for people to connect with an incarnation of Divinity than it is to worship the Oneness, the Unity of everything. For the peoples of the Middle East the Prophet Muhammad is that incarnation of Divinity. That’s what my belief and opinion is.
@@muhammadeisa1459
''WHAT?''
Islam is a cheap rip off from the existing monotheisms, M0h4mm3d was an obvious liar, rapist, thief and murderer if you read the texts.
All these mainstream religions come from a time when scientific understanding was so poor that for example ‘witches’ were burned alive for causing hail storms, and people were possessed with the devil when in reality they were suffering from epilepsy. So… let’s take all these religious with a humongous pinch of salt shall we.
Admitting there is no god, examining evolutionary biology, comprehending the vastness and coldness of the universe, understanding how long it took life to evolve (millions of years, millions and millions of years) facing your fears and the harsh cold realities that life is a fluke - is the true enlightenment, rather than burying your head in sand with religions.
What was said at 20:17? The audio drops out.
18:15 by the way, the conquest was possible because of the bloodiest war ever between Byzantine and Sasanid Empire right before the Arab invasion. Persia was in ruin at that moment. East Roman Empire managed to repel Arab attacks since it was about to win war against Sasanid.
Read chapter rum chapter 30. It talks about romans(rum) and sassanids and how the defeat will happen within few years. Prophet Muhammad was the greatest leader ever BECUASE not only did he come with a message of god but he lead and was a general of an army that become the superpower.

@@atifsyed9283 - Muhammad was DEAD before the armies of the believers left the Arabian peninsula, according to later Muslim historiography. True is that Eastern Rome and Sassanides had conducted long wars against each other just before the Islamic conquest.
@@Achill101 yes even tho he died before the great expansion but he was the power force behind uniting all of Arab tribes resulting in the power they had. For example in a saying he said verily we shall conquer Constantinople what a great leader it will be and what a great army that army will be. During his time and for the next 600-800 years it was unimaginable to even think about Constantinople but finally in 1400s it was taken. Mehmets motivating cause was this saying hence you will find this saying on a plaque in Istanbul hagia sofia. Peace be with you.
@@Achill101 also yes even tho they had become weak but what’s amazing is what I had mentioned in my original comment. Chapter rum (30) it says Roman’s have been defeated in nearby land but within 3-9 years they will triumph and exactly that happened Roman’s relapsed and took triumph. I’m not arguing with you. I’m just presenting you the truth. Behind Islam. Read it with passion and honesty and you’ll see it’s not a enemy religion but the truth.
Thanks to him for describing the arduous process of earlier hadith scholars sorting out the hadith collections.

Al Hadid of the Hades!
@@koroglurustem1722 he is correct. Mecca is suppose to to be Abraham's place of origin but the pilgrimage is to Jerusalem combined into one. Marwa and Safa, where do you think they are located? They are Mt. Scopus and Mt. Moriah in Jerusalem. Who puts Marwa and Safa at Jerusalem, the very names that Muslims think are mountains in Saudi Arabia? Josephus, the 1st century historian. Jahannam in the Quran is Gehenna, where the apocalypse is suppose to take place. Bakkah in the Quran is mentioned in the Bible as a rest stop to Jerusalem. Islam at it's core is based on Judeo-Christian traditions but heavily distorted by political factors where Muslims have no idea where their religion comes from. They think it came from a prophet named Muhammad but if you notice in the Quran, you get no real information about Muhammad as prophet but you come across Jesus plenty of times. The Dome of Rock inscriptions is about Jesus with no information who is MHMD as an individual but when you consider the subject matter, MHMD is most certainly Jesus. Jesus is the messenger of Allah. The Christology of Jesus matches well with Nestorian Christology that Jesus has two full natures and they are not intermixed. The historical "Islamic Muhammad" of the Arab conquests, at best, was Walid ibn Khalid, who was called Al Farooq, the Redeemer, the Savior, the one who divides between good , and bad, also known as Umar. Contemporary sources put "Islamic Muhammad" at the wrong place and at the wrong time.
@@samuelmorales2344 thanks for your uncooked half baked ideas, rather daydreams
@@koroglurustem1722 how are they half-baked? You don't make any sense. It is pretty clear that Muhammad of Islam was invented 2 centuries later. Invented with many hadiths and siras and the scholars wettled down the material to create Islam. Muhammad the miracle man in Sahih Muslim to Gnostic Muhammad who existed before Adam. The Dome of Rock is dedicated to Jesus. It tells a full narrative of Jesus the prophet. There is no Islamic Muhammad in it. There is no angel Gabriel, the caves of Hira, none of that. It is all Jesus.
Beautiful lecture, delving into an almost criminally understudied period of history. I hope Dr Donner and others continue this vitally needed scholarship.
He is a Liar.
He doesn't tell you the truth about Islam
Sneakers Corner YT channel has done excellent reasearch tying together various diverse sources with very interesting thesis on Islam's origins.
Lots of work done actually.
@@galaxyamer5656 The Islam scholars wont debate the reality of history of Islam just shout from the side lines the infedel dont tell the truth about Islam . For me roman Catholic the information explains the diversity of Islam believed across the planet and why the Saudi version gets the most traction in certian regions. For the countries that ban the Saudi Islam teachers and Mullaghs they often get a peacefull muslim population. The lectuers from sneakers corner and this lecture explain many of the hidden mechanisms of Islam and make it more possible for non muslim Christians like me to understand the logic of the muslim I deal with such as west african muslims versus Indonesian muslims that have a culturally different type of Islam beliefe . This cultural religious diversity can be seen in even different regions of Europe with Roman Catholic beliefes that differences exist give them . Hopefully in time I can utilise the history to convert Muslims to my religion and Muslims are welcome to try to convert me to Islam but now i have better understanding as to why Muslims wont debate the history often because they cant as they adhere to Ciaro 1926 Koran is perfect logic when there are many Korans and many thousands of differences
@@shiningirisheyes how can you say this
@@shiningirisheyes Converting muslims to believe that their God couldnt forgive Adam and Eve and their offspring until he sent his innocent son to let him die in the hand of his creature. and Halleluja, we are saved. We just have to eat God"s blood and flesh every sundy and baptize our kids because they are born with this etenal sin.
Your belief is the weakest in all abrahamic religions. You dont even have the originals of your bible which is filled with mistakes, historical theological scientific and you name it, endless contradictions. Jesus spoke aramaic and what do you have today? 1000 Bibles for every sect, we have one Koran and I dare you to find two or more. If you are confusing "Arts of recititations" which is like two english speakers with their respective dialect, not other words, and we have the original copies in Birmingham, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Paris etc.. You have the Vulgata, which is in Latin translated from ancient Greek, where is aramaic the language of Jesus, how can we know for sure what he said when we know the history of modifications of your Bible, its like a commercial book with new "embellished and modified versions every couple years.
The Koran and even Sahih Al bukhari und Sahih Muslim are more historical documents than your bible. we aint even sure who actually wrote your gospels, they are affected to Mathew, John, Marcus, Peter without even any evidence. The new testament doesnt support your triniarian belief which is a catholic dogm, like Eucharisty, Baptism, Papa etc.. you have contradictions in stories of "Jesus presenting himself to Paul" who toke it as proof of his mission to change(corrupt) the christian belief from within and insert some strange beliefs like "the alt law doenst apply to you" "Eat what you want" "dont circumcize" etc.. and the dogm of "God is died for your sins, you just have to believe in him and you are saved"-... GOd dying is already an Oxymoron.. the bible itself states that "God is immortal"
So, brother catholic.. which muslims do you want to convert after watching this funny pseudo lecture, that really funny and pathetic. You should maybe look to keep your fellow catholics in the church after the massing leavings due to the sexual scandals of your very "pious" bichops and chruch Fathers. Still want to try to convert muslims?:D
In the early picture of the ' Yemen ' text of the koran, there are no dots above and below the script. 16 letter Aramaic alphabet ?

33.00 and how many times is the word man / human beings used. As sometimes the addresses are believers and sometimes just human beings. ??
Eye-opening. I learned that Islam started out as an inclusive “believers” revival movement centered on three things: monotheism, piety, and eschatological judgment day. Further, I learned that Christians and Jews were included in the early movement era. Oh that we can roll back time!
Well, yeah. Muhammad was informed at a young age that he would be a prophet of god. It was a Christian missionary doing what Jesus commanded him to do, who told young Muhammad this. So, how could he reject the religion who inspired his? I mean, it's obvious he had a translation of certain books of the Christian Bible at that time, as he references Abraham, Jesus, etc.

No there's something wrong with your head. Go seek help. Now!
It says in the quran: Q 5:3 (This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion.” ) so its not something that was randomly chosen by some people from 8th century as he said, its clear in the verse that Allah gave this religion a name and mentioned it in the Quran. Some people are not true what they research. And definitely most of what he says is untrue.
Excellent point
Islam is evil
He is absolutely right, islam covered all believers in one God, every individual who believes in one God he is a Muslim, this is how Quran describes it.
Would that definition disqualify Trinitarians?
At 31:36. There is a clear distinction between Muslim (Islam) and Mu'min (Iman). They are not interchangeable. There is also a third term, Ihsan. So the three terms are Islam, Iman, Ihsan. Without getting into technical details, one can say that they are three levels of one's spiritual status with God, Ihsan being the highest. These terms are not used randomly in the Qur'an, and they have not come to mean/signify anything different over time. I am surprised Mr. Donner is not aware of the ample literature available on the subject.
muslim means a person who submits to God, Islam means submission (has other meanings such as peace), Mu'min means believer, iman means faith. These are all different words.
No matter which religion, I suggest it is only because humans are so harsh and judgmental of each other, that so many are willing to place faith in the existence of a harsh and judge-mental god.

Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.

Had you been born into a Christian culture, you would be posting to me that to have my soul saved, I would have to believe Jesus is my savior.
Which religion you "belong to" is based on where you were born and raised.
The truth of that matter will set you free of all religion.
Been there ... did that.

My guess is, the existence of gods and devils and all stories of the supposed supernatural, started back in the caveman days, when they knew nothing about the subject of hallucinations.
From the book … Hallucinations … author … Oliver Sacks
Hallucinatory experiences, whatever their cause, generate a world of imaginary beings and abodes-heaven, hell, fairyland. Such myths and beliefs are designed to clarify and reassure and, at the same time, to frighten and warn. We make narratives for a nocturnal experience which is common, real and physiologically based.
When traditional figures-devils, witches, or hags-are no longer believed in, new ones-aliens, visitations from “a previous life”-take their place. Hallucinations, beyond any other waking experience, can excite, bewilder, terrify, or inspire, leading to the fokelore and the myths (sublime, horrible, creative, and playful) which perhaps no individual and no culture can wholly dispense with.
@@junevandermark952 Wow. you are lying
@@fabak You have to believe that you see evil in others, before you can believe in the existence of a judge-mental god.
If you believed that you saw only goodness in others, you would not be ABLE to worship an image of a judge-mental god, because you would think that if such a being existed ... it would be a horrible bully to pick on such wonderful people.
Do you believe that is also a lie?
You DO believe that YOU are wonderful ... don't you.
Or do you believe that you also are an evil sinner ... not worthy of any kindness from a judge-mental god?
Why ignore the fact that oral tradition was the common way of communication and "documentation", the proof is the most popular literary genre if the time was poetry that survived until today.
Islam was bringing change but you can't expect illeterate people to document everything from the beginning because some western historians are expecting to find some manuscripts from that era.
Prophet Muhammed pbuh had scribes e.g. Zaid Thabit. They were definitely writing back then.
How stupid do u have to be to still be doing oral traditions in the 7th century? Muslims !
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said:

Loved the lecture! Agree with you 100%
But just pronouncing "muslim" correctly is a giant leap for the west!
No He did do his home work now days many fake visitors come to my Country and try to study fake history and at end they lost what they want to achieve I don't why he bother to come to Saudi Arabia and next time we are making rules just the rules that non believers can't cross the free way close the our prophets grave they try to lie about him do something they like and stay away from us

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?"

Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.

About the climate question ~1:10-1:13. The years 535-536 saw the most extreme climate the last 2000 years, probably from vulcanic eruption. This affected communities in the north more thought, maybe 50% of population in Scandinavia starved to death, than in the ME.
Furthermore, there is no need to seek for climate catastrophe. Since Islam rose against the backdrop of the Justinian plague 541-549 AD and against the backdrop of the terrible devastating horrible war between the Sassanids and Byzantine empire 572-591 that laid waste to the ME.
So, the question had some foundation but was overall pretty uninformed.
Some good points you are making.
U clearly state abattle between the Persians and romans that happened 8yrs prior to the conquest andforget the
Rida wars fought by the caliphate in arabia at its juvenile stages. So tell me what you say about that
@@muhammedali2578 The question I was commenting. Was speculating about a destabalizing climate catastrophe paving the way for the Arab explosion.
My answer is that no such climate catastrophy is necessary. The war between the Sassanid Empire and the Roman Empire depleted their resouces. But more importantly, delegitimized them in the Levant. The war seesawed back and forth, back and forth, across the Levant. First the Sassanids sacking a city. Then a year after, the Romans sacking that city. Then the Sassanids sacking and massmurdering again. I believe that this terrible war made many people in the Levant feel an utter disgust with these two outside powers that devastated THEIR region but were not based there. So, this is a much better explanation than a climate catastrophe.
The early battles described in Muslim tradition are neither here nor there for this particular question. They do not affect the discussion about the conditions that preceded for the rise of Islam/the Arab empire. The early battles from Muslim tradition describe the actual process of the establishment of the rule of Islam / the Arab Empire. So, different question.

I just played the video can anyone tell me what's the blue dye on the guy's hair?!
Those bits and pieces resemble that of the year 325 when The Bible was chosen from a lot of writings in Nicea.
Why does this perfectly reasonable and scholarly gentleman have a shock of blue hair? I know most of the comments seem to be about this, but I think it's an important question!
The blue hair definitely DISTRACTS from the credibility of his lecture. 🤔
His granddaughter played with the hair and got it blue, according to some comments.
I think that it's the fashion these days
important to a man child
@@seansoblixe9711 Actually, only a child would dye their hair like that. I'm sure in your "community" it's pretty common.
This made me happy and confirmed some thoughts I had about my religion. Thank you for such treasure working. How I can follow your studies?
U should be wary tho. Cause he clearly get stuff wrong like saying "Muslims fight each other all the time" and that's a bit hyperbolic. And the word Islam as a religion didn't exist when in the quran there's a verse that says : the religion to Allah is Islam.
@@ldahmyi think we shouldn't be harshly judging his studies because,this man i studying old stuff without a bias. So he is only speaking on the basis of his study, so let him study. And his study isnt about preaching islam so we dont need to follow that.
And the party of him saying muslims fight eachother all time , is true. Although we believe in the same religion, we argue on the basis of madhabs/ sects and a lot of stuff. There are sects which are even banned from Saudi Arabia, because they have concepts that are so messed up that, normally they aren't even muslims anymore.
You also have shias who have scholars who even discard hadiths and even claim adulteration of the Quran.
Iam not sure about the term islam ,coz i have never studied that( as its too small of a matter to give importance), so i will study on that too.
@@mahbubellahi9191 I appreciate your answer here but I think to say that other sects are so "messed up" is the whole basis he is trying to explain here, all he is saying is that we have been fed one sided and biased narratives that have changed so much since the life of our prohpet that muslims are blindly accepting hadith and history that may not be true at all, for example the term Muslim and Islam were also mentioned in the early covenants of the jews and christians....we can't accept hadith in the same manner as the Quran. Hadith even when completely 'sahih' has been narrated in almost a chinese whisper methodology and when comparing two same narrations by different narrators it's clear to see there was no consensus on some key information between the narrators, just proving the point that Hadith is a good foundation but should not be used to narrate history from a historians pov due to the sheer biases. You aren't to know which sect is really messed up and which is truly on the right path from these hadith as they are subjective. JaazakAllah
@@ldahmy "And the word Islam as a religion didn't exist when in the quran there's a verse that says : the religion to Allah is Islam." إن الـديـن عـنـد الله الإسـلام That presupposes that din means religion and islam means Islam as we understand it today as a religion. islam could also be a practice: to submit to Allah. What exactly does dín mean? Does it connote a fixed set of rules and a historical community that adheres to it? How then can both Muhammad and Ibrahim be Muslims, when they lived in separate time periods? Is dín then a certain way of behaving, a way? Then you could translate as: The way with God is submitting (unto him).
@@johannesrosenbaum actually in Surah 22:78 we are named as "Muslims" literally
"Strive for ˹the cause of˺ Allah in the way He deserves, for ˹it is˺ He ˹Who˺ has chosen you, and laid upon you no hardship in the religion-the way of your forefather Abraham. Who named you 'Muslims' ˹in the˺ earlier ˹Scriptures˺ and in this ˹Quran˺, so that the Messenger may be a witness over you, and that you may be witnesses over humanity. So establish prayer, pay alms-tax, and hold fast to Allah. He ˹alone˺ is your Guardian. What an excellent Guardian, and what an excellent Helper!"
Very interesting but I recommend some kind of break system or dividing the video into chapters so viewers can search specific sections of the talk
Newest Abrahamic religion same as the last. I'll continue to trust what we keep leaning about the universe using scientific methodologies, thank you.
Since I read that the moon was split in two, without historical proof or witnesses (other than muslims), i ve become very critical.
on judgement day moon will be split reread verse
its funny that something like splitting the moon no historian could see , but Muslims belief that it is a miracle
lil hammad really? I reread (Versus 54: 1-2) According to the companions of Mohamed, he performed that miracle to show pagans that islam was the ”true” religion.
Where should I reread?
@@lauragf.9206 verse refers to the endgames. moon will be split in two...you just need a little reading comprehension

7:07 The concept of revelation often involves individuals claiming to receive messages or insights from a divine source. However, interpretation of such experiences varies widely. Some view these claims skeptically, attributing them to delusion or other psychological factors, while others accept them as genuine connections with the divine. Ultimately, how one perceives revelation depends on personal beliefs and perspectives. Some may choose to ridicule the concept, while others respect individuals' beliefs and experiences, allowing them to interpret their encounters with the divine as they see fit.
Either we deny the concept or make fun of everyone.
Where and when did the current Islamic characteristics of religious murder and sadism arise?
From the beginning.

Such basic mistakes, the Quran says quote "This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful." End quote Soura 5 Aya 3
Where is the mistake in this verse?
The reason some of the Meccans didn't want to convert is not because it means their forefathers were in Hell. Rather, it doesn't mean their forefathers are in Hell. Since they did not receive revelation, they couldn't be judged according it, so they will be judged primarily according to their deeds. Rather, the Meccans didn't like how it threatened their monopoly on the pilgramage.
Being a Muslim i need to clear a few misconceptions here.
1)Islam is what this religion was called from the start. It is clearly referenced in quran as the name of this religion.
2)Momin is a term for pious or Good mualim. So not every muslim is a momin but every momin is a muslim. Take it as an elite group of mualims.
3) khalif is the orignal term as Fist successor of the Prophet Muhammad( peace be uopn him) , Abu bakr was called Khalefa tul Rasool.. meaning successor of the prophet. 2nd successor Umar was called Amer Ul Momineen( head of the pious muslims) out of convenience since it was not practical to call him sucessor to the successor of the prophet.

*Who explains to us why the Koran says Christians believe God has a biological son!*
To all Muslims! Son of God means NOT SON! What is called the son of God is the word of God = god himself! Which has nothing to do with a child (son)! Thus, the Son of God is incarnated as the human Jesus and the human Jesus is therefore referred to as a son, which does not mean a son!

IIRC the "transcript" that you see as subtitles is generated while the video is running. For this video, sometimes it's comically bad - better not to rely on it, but use it only to follow coarsely.
@Joels310. One can always tell when one has a weak argument. Those with a weak argument begin to insult and disparage their opponent. Name calling and bashing is always telling about the speaker than the one spoken of. We thoroughly understand what is trying being conveyed. For the intelligent and fair-minded, the ploy doesn't work. The first rule we learn: Speak not about that which you do not know. Google and picking up rhetoric doesn't qualify as scholarly.
Correct yes. One can expect these kind of 'scholars' in the end times. People of the anti Christ trying to gather some steam against Islam (many also toppling Christianity). Satans pride wont allow him to enter hell alone!

Muslims will also skew Islam to suit their viewpoints which is why we get so many disagreements and versions of Islam today. I would rather someone who knows how to present information objectively and accurately than someone who is doing it to mislead people and confirm their own bias. Also so many people just make things up to justify their arguments Muslim or not Muslim, It would be refreshing to see a non biased and historically accurate history of islam
@@aliyaf9869 There is only one Quran in Arabic in its original form and there is no contradictions or disputes about it. Viewpoints are secondary.
Unfortunately , there are many wrong information in this lecture . This doctor says there is no mention in Quran that Islam is a religion revealed by God , while the truth is in Quran there are clear notions that Islam is the only religion that shall be accepted by God , Quran says " whoever adopts any religion apart from Islam, it will not be accepted from him by God " . This is just only one example of this doctor inaccuracies that he posed in his lecture. I do not mind anyone to discredit Islam provided that he avoids faking up evidence . Be just objective and honest and respect people's mind . My best wishes for you anyway .
And actually Quran references contemporaneous historical events such as the defeat of the "Romans" (Byzantium) at Sura 30:2-4 which corresponds to a Byzantine defeat at Antioch in 613.
Yes but who really wrote the Quran, why and when?
Many people who firmly believe there is only one Almighty have grave doubts about the authenticity of the Quran and it's self contradictory messages many of which are racist, theocratic and elitist.

'i believe in one god and mahomet the apostle of god' is the simple and invariable profession of islam. the intellectual image of the deity has never been degraded by any visible idol; the honours of the prophet have never transgressed the measure of human virtue, and his living precepts have restrained the gratitude of his disciples within the bounds of reason and religion."

We are so lucky to seat at home, and get the benefit of such a valuable presentation. It is obvious that such a talk, is a result of many years hard work, thank you.
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way), don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..

السلام علیکم
Please accept my regards and let me thank you for your open mindedness and intent to talk.
In fact, I have a genuine understanding of religions, especially Islam. This, because I have grown up in a Muslim society and when i was a kid I learned how to read Quran. I have studied the history of Islam, and I have examined religions (not only Islam) as part of my education which is Anthropology of religion. My conclusion which is related to this discussion is, there is no religion, but religious people. Let me elaborate on this. As you mentioned there groups of Muslims who misrepresent the religion. The case is those also believe that peaceful people like you misrepresent the religion. For a third person, who is the real Muslim? Which one is real Islam?
This problem exist for all other religions as well. It is said that there are 39 000 different Christian sects. Obviously each on of those believe they have the right religion and all other are mistaken.
My point is, we cannot find a clear and unambiguous definition of the concept of religion, and not such for any religions people have believed in, during the course of history. I mean there is no such definition that all Muslims unanimously accept. Then we come to what is a real matter: All religious people have their own interpretation of the faith. That's why two groups with very very close understanding of Islam, namely ISIS and Al-Nusra Front, were two fiercest enemies of each other,. So much so, that they executed the captured soldiers of the other groups. They did so, because they considered each other Kharijites.
Thanks for your time, and peace be upon you

32:05 - You don't need to be a believer to be a Muslim!!! Islam does NOT mean SUBMISSION, but SURRENDER!!! If Islam means 'surrender' then Muslim means 'one who surrendered.' Submission ≠ Surrender. Submission is voluntary, internal or private. Surrender is involuntary, public or political (Islam/surrender/ أَسْلَمْنَا /aslamna - in Quranic terminology is a military term). Therefore, you don't need to be a believer to be a Muslim!!!... See - verse Quran 49:14 - The Bedouins say, 'We believe.' Say: 'You do not believe; rather say, "We surrender"; for belief has not yet entered your hearts. If you obey God and His Messenger, He will not diminish you anything of your works. God is All-forgiving, All-compassionate. (Arberry translation)

You would think such a scholar would give more insight on Muhammed. Just a perusal of where he was from and how he came about the visions and book. There are known facts that give a more vilified view of the "prophet". It would be interesting and beneficial to hear more about the man and what happened via the facts, how he proceeded/progressed with his first wife and family and his leaving and his marriage to the rich widow. His shunning of her after coming to power and marrying "ayesha" at 6 years old and consummating that marriage when she was 9, according to the qur'an.
It is very hard to give that sort of insight with any kind of certainty, as most religious characters and their founders, as depicted in the various holy books of the religion itself, are typically very detached from actual real history.
This applies to all "abrahamic" religions present still today.
@@Bluesrusebiblical characters and their stories are not claimed to be literal retellings of stories as opposed to Quran and Haadiths
@@dr.vegetable Well, that depends on who you ask, and when.
If you tell an average Christian, that none of the sayings or deeds of Jesus can be traced to an actual historical figure, they don't take too kind to that sort of stuff.
Nor do Jews (at least the religious kind), when you tell them their exodus never _actually_ happened, nor did their Moses _actually_ even exist.
So, while I agree that there's a lot more room for "human error" and "interpretation" and such, a very "literal" meaning to the stories at the core is at least to some degree present in all three.
Early age marriages is a point taken by many. In Europe in 18 century marriages in royal families of baby girls as young as 3 yrs old are recorded
Give light, and the people shall find their own way.
Too many have put blinders on and follow Imams with blinders on.
If there was a god, and he wanted to reveal himself to mankind, wouldn’t it be logical to reveal himself to everyone instead of one person?
Well if you listen.
The idea is reward and punishment.
Reward for those who have faith.
And punishment for those who deny that which they know deep down inside.
Actually there is a GOD and He does speak to everyone. Read more about this very slowly here: gospelfacts.weebly.com/atheism-is-a-fallacy.html
that's the same question Moses asked to God. And what Moses got?!
Al-A'raf : 143
"And when Moses arrived at Our appointed time and his Lord spoke to him, he said, "My Lord, show me [Yourself] that I may look at You." [ Allah ] said, "You will not see Me, but look at the mountain; if it should remain in place, then you will see Me." But when his Lord appeared to the mountain, He rendered it level, and Moses fell unconscious. And when he awoke, he said, "Exalted are You! I have repented to You, and I am the first of the believers."
Now ask this to your self :
How big are you compare to your house?!
How big your house compare to Earth?
How big the Earth Compare to the Sun?!
Can you see the Sun?!
Now can you imagine how small your self compare to the Sun?!
Let's go next. How small the Sun compare to our Solar System?!
How small the solar system compare to Milky Way?
How small the Milky Way compare to the universe?!
Our Earth is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to the universe.
And there are 7 levels of universes.
Our universe is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to the second universe.
The 1st universe + 2nd universe combined, is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to the 3rd universe.
The 1st + 2nd + 3rd universes combined, is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to the 4th universe.
The 1st + 2nd + 3rd + 4th universes combined, is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to the 5th universe.
The 1st + 2nd + 3rd + 4th + 5th universes combined, is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to the 6th universe.
Now all of these universes, From the 1st + 2nd + 3rd + 4th + 6th universes combined, is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to the 7th universe.
Now how small the Earth compare to the 7th Universe?
How small are you?!
We haven't talk about how big The God is.
After all of those universe, There is Sidratul Muntaha at the end of all of those universes.
All of those universe, from the 1st to the 7th combined, is like single grain of sand in the desert compare to this Sidratul Muntaha.
And after that, there's a vast realm like ocean. All of the 7 universes + Sidratul Muntaha combined, is like single grain of sand in the desert compare to this realm.
Above that, there's The Arsy. All of those realm I mentioned above, combined all of those things, is like a single grain of sand in the desert compare to The Arsy.
And Allah is The Greatest of all.
And here you are, asking the Greatest being to show himself before human??! know your place, human...!!! know your limit.
@Mike A you are denying something you know is right deep down inside
@Mike A atheism is wishful thinking because you think that you don't need religion to have morals. Thats like saying we don't need police to have safety
If the Quran is the perfect word of Allah it should be able to explain itself and corroborate itself.
It literally does though lmao

Brother let the punk professor tell a little his lies that the blue horizon would fall on his head.
Believe this anyway, only the fan base who only eat pre-chewed food anyway and don't use their minds and hearts. If this joke from a person were authentic, he would not see it sprayed on especially during a lecture / presentation.
God have a place for everyone .
@@May3yad Quran twists and falsifies every Biblical story there is. It also makes stupid claims and mistakes, eg defining Holy Trinity. So please do not even try to prove Qurans authenticity using Bible.
@@asmaani74 There is evidence to show it was not. For example, Quran distinguishes between PHARAOH and King. Ancient Egyptian royals were Kings, only later they became Pharaoh. This is not REFERENCED in any of the Bible - thus proving Quran's originality sent by Allah.
Holly Trinity is a later extrapolation. Holly Trinity is not mentioned in Old Testament, not revered by Moses or Abraham, not practiced by Jews today and Jesus was a Jew. So obviously it was a later interpolation just like the Catholic Church.
just watched this worthful lecture, and I was amazed by the amount of effort that has been given to construct this lecture.
one of (the many comments) I will put in as my own views, is the lecturer mentioned explanation why he is not using HADITH is because it is difficult to authenticate it.
actually, there is a particular science for that call ' the Science of Men' that will encourage everyone to look for.
the science of men (Elm AlHadeeth) is a very clear way to categorize what prophet Mohamed said.
please look for it and give your opinion.
‘Ilm al-rijal is (just as Hadith) a 8-9th century retro-projection on the past by the Muslim tradition. Moderne academic analysis doesn’t consider ‘ilm al-rijal to be a reliable method to establish the reliability of ahadith nor does it considers it a heuristic method to investigate the origins of Islam.
Were you painting before work? Or did you do that on purpose?
Man, this guy sounds a lot like Bob Newhart.
Thats it. I knew he sounded familiar but couldn't place it
Yeah, I thought of Newhart too.
He needs a phone call bit or two, though.
