In our subcontinent, there are so many myths and superstitions๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ™„

Islam is the truth. I came to Islam when I was bored on a long haul flight. I put my headphones on and struggled to find anything that was interesting to listen to or watch. As it was an Arabic airline, I decided to listen to the Qurโ€™an. I had no idea what was being said. And 8 years on, Iโ€™m still reading and listening to the Qurโ€™an and so many other benefiting books and videos such as these.
So happy I perfected how to say the Shahada in Arabic 2 years ago. Allah truly reached out to me on that flight. The knowledge and guidance is a reward which makes money and other worldly things insignificant.

I understand what he's trying to say but atom doesn't look like that. We haven't seen an atom and the only representation that we can give it is mathematical.

I didnโ€™t know how
Verses in the Quran (wearing them or hanging them on your wall) could be a hidden shirk under those circumstances. Thanks for the clarification it makes sense know.

right so if everything has a design / purpose can someone answer this question for me, what's the deal with all the uninhabitable planets not only in the solar system but also exoplanets? why would god create planets that he knows can not sustain life because they're too hot, too cold, or are hit with radiation by their star? what's the purpose of a planet like, Mars? and I sometimes wonder what would happen if we removed it. this ain't only a religious question but also maybe a scientific question.

Many people create their own superstitions after going through difficulties in their life. They fear other things besides Allah and believe practicing their superstitions can save them from bad stuff. Superstitions originated from fear attached to negativity.

The tongue is still clean and pure! Even when women are in the menstrual cycleโ€ฆbut rather when praying from mouth, she is required to pray like, broken ways.. having brakes (short breathing) in between the actual full stops in the ayah. Hopefully that makes sense and helps.! And if Iโ€™m wrong plzz correct me โค

Iโ€™ve known that cats are halal and good to keep cause back then, our beloved prophet used to store water in an animal skinned like container etc.. and mince would eat the skin and spill water or eat food, that was to kept in it. So, cats would scare etc mince awayโ€ฆ Also why dogs are not allowed in house (another reason) as they donโ€™t understand or know the difference between their owners food and theirsโ€ฆhaving no sense of boundaries etc.

30:30 everything just said was just fallacious argument Dr. Danyal Dennet has given a lecture on that everything looks created to humans or Homo sapiens because we ourselves are creators, since people are creators therefore, everything around us must have been created, that is the reason why we believe everything is created

10:59 if you study history, you can obviously see that Islam is just repackaged old stories from the Christians and the Jews, and the Persians of that time, and all of those stories were repackage. Repurposed from the Babylonia is in the Sumerians of the older times.

It's good to place words of Koran in the living room it kind brings attention to the Koran while people read the words of the Koran in the living room but on the walls of bed rooms and bathrooms, far as animals I don't recommend them in the house theh belong outside of the house ,fasr as food is concerned no shell fish because crabs eat their dead and sharks eat flesh of other creatures of the sea ,animals killed by means of electricity is not recommend to consume ,touching people in a state of najus I don't like shaking hands with them ,touching people with dogs or houses where dogs live in them I don't like going in them I rather go in case to save ghe owner or children being attacked bh such untrusted animals as dogs a viscous I keep away fromvthem ,dogs are not best friends of humans theg do attact and are no friends of mine ,believing in materialistic things I dong entertain the idea it can help anybody because it can talk walk or move by it self without human intervation ,to make tatoos I forbid personally unless its for families identity its not haram but kept to a minimum only for identification only ,Koran was revealed to prophet Muhammad pbuh and his family as we follow Koran and ahlulbayt. That's what prophet said to the Muslims but there are 72 different sects of Muslims, I only belive in Allah and his massangers ,Abraham, ismeal ,issac ,moses ,isha, Aaron, yakoob ,Adam being the first prophet of Allah sovereign LORD most high, 124,000 came and we only got the family of prophet Muhammad pbuh left the last one who is still alive only Allah almighty sovereign knows his where abouts he will reappear inshalla by the will of our sovereign LORD who created us muslims to praise him and worship him only and not wood znx stones and clay or fire like some religons do ,onlh knows our mind soul and our strength and weaknesses, but doing our best to please Allah is our goal and destiny to see paradise inshalla, treat others as we like to be treated best jihad one can do is on one ownself ,Allah set has nit made thd earth for killing each other but to live in peace through Koran and ahlulbayt, if some one attacks another without a cause than than the person has a right to defend one self ,but not to judge only Allah knows best ,we can onlh obtain 2 drops oc Allah's wisdom and knowledge the universe is vast and our widlest imagination cannot comprehend what Allah has created for ys humanbings yet mankind is ungrateful by listening to tyrents of this world ,listening to ungodly politics is haram ,theh love to shed blood as ghd angels spoke to Allah almighty ghsg are you going to create humanbings on earth ghat will shed blood Allah forbid the followers of Koran and ahlulbayt to do such an act its better to ask Allah for wisdom and understanding like prophet Solomon did where he was able to do great things understanding the language of bird ,ants ,and jinns what a blessed prophet he was and said in a dua that ghe kingdom of Solomon must end after him ghats who the Romans camd to paliistine to end kindom of prophet Solomon, after that the Romans left and paliistine received the keys of the state of paliistine prophet Muhammad pbuh he drove the Romans out anx ghey left paliistine and a Mosque was built where muslims prag in Jerusalem upto to thus day but the zionist with the Roman imperialists created nothing but bloodshed in paliistine that's what is going on genocide in paliistine but imam madhi with son of Mary will destroy thd oppressors and the tyrents inshalla in due course and muslims anx ghd people will praise anx enjoy the blessing of our sovereign LORD almighty who sent prophets to warn ghe belivers as ghe Koran stated oh you who belive your sovereign LORD almighty is one God worship him only ghat you mag receive glad tidings of jog specially during ghe months of ashurha, Ramadan and 2 ither months where no wars should happen with or bh the myslims a time of peace showing kindness to fellow humanbings by being obedient to Allah's calls in prayers fasting and submission. Peace be to our loyal servants of Allah sovereign LORD. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜โคโคโคโคโคโคโคโคโคโคโคโค

Islam is the most rational religion and no room for superstitions in Islam thatโ€™s why its own prophet believes that Satan can be washed away with water like some kind of dirt and by blowing your nose 3x (Sahih al-Bukhari 3295), Satan is laughing inside of you and making fun of your ugly face when you yawn (Jami al-Tirmidhi 2746), Satan blows in your bottom while youโ€™re doing Salat, making you think you farted and that you shouldnโ€™t stop praying unless you hear or smell it (Bulugh al-Maram 83), Satan pees in your ears if you oversleep and donโ€™t wake up to pray, and by the way Muhammad himself overslept, meaning Satan peed in allahโ€™s prophet! (Abu Dawud 2:447, Ibn Majah, Book 1:1). Other Islamic superstitions are you shouldnโ€™t eat with your left hand because Satan eats with his left hand (Sahih Muslim 2019) and you shouldnโ€™t sleep on your stomach because thatโ€™s how the people of Jahannam lie (Sunan Ibn Majah 37:24), and many more! Last but not least, youโ€™re wrong in pointing out that Christians believe or worship the cross. We donโ€™t believe in the cross as a physical item BUT WHAT IT REPRESENTS. I sometimes wear a cross pendant, do I believe it protects me? No, I believe itโ€™s G-d Who protects me, not the pendant! I just like wearing it because of what it symbolises. Can Islamists understand that or youโ€™ll just keep closing your mind and insisting Christians worship the cross? I know some Christians like the Catholics kiss statues, but donโ€™t you do the same with the black stone, you bow to it, kiss it and do the tawaf. But somehow, thatโ€™s not considered idolatry to Islamists because itโ€™s Islam. THAT REFLECTS THE HYPOCRISY AND DOUBLE STANDARDS OF ISLAM.

@Thatssswhatithought

I agree with everything but not the part where you said do not imitate the kufar only in whatโ€™s in their religious beliefs. Most kufar these days are not religious but they have liberal beliefs and other beliefs that we canโ€™t follow as Muslims. And I can give a lot of examples. There is a hadith and it doesnโ€™t specifically say that do not imitate them in religious beliefs rather it says do not imitate them. This doesnโ€™t include sciences even though their sciences come from Muslims but they have erased Muslim history.

This is a very useful and important video, especially for Muslims. We are living in a time when Muslims are moving away from the teaching of Allah and his Rasul. People are falling into and also spreading myths and superstitions knowingly and unknowingly. This video beautifully highlights those issues and gives an explanation. Thank you Sheikh Belal Assaad, may Allah bless you and all of us.
