No sir. Only Maga republicans and 2nd Amendment Obsessed fragile and frightened little men carry guns in Texas. The rest of us are NORMAL AND PEACEFUL and have no use for guns. Subhanahu wa ta'ala From a born and raised life long Texan (unfortunately). But thanks to Allah, i will finally get to leave this state for good next year when i move.

السلام عليكم
Anyone knows How can I reach Sheikh Belal ? I love his way of explaning things it’s comforting
I am struggling due to paralyzing fear of Allah , I come from a non religious environment and putting Hijab and not listening to classical music as well as avoiding casual interactions with opposite gender are draining me due to my lack of willpower and family opposition and normalization of sins , I had to avoid going to all weddings of my friends due to free mixing and music and my entire lifestyle changed but I am struggling a lot with these sins , I tried increasing my good deeds but even with that I couldn t think well of Allah , He is merciful and forgiving but I have to repent first and I find it extremely hard and I was met with lots of opposition and hatred and harsh words i feel like I am never enough for anyone and my efforts tho I am trying my best are not enough to please Allah , I keep on watching scholars and I envy people who got a culture that coincides with Islamic rulings .. I have been suffering mentally a lot and .. Do i really have to cut off all my surroundings because they are deluded ?, I am shy and introverted so I struggle to talk to people .. Is listening to classical music or calm instruments really Haram even occasionally? Am i really going to hell and all my good deeds do not count because I am not covering my hair ? I keep on watching scholars who said mutabarijat will rot in hell no matter what cause they arw causing fitna to society .. they say that we shall wear only black no jewelry no pants only very oversized garments and hide ourselves and avoid going out as a woman and no going around without a mehram.. i really wear modest clothes and dont show any skin .. I am not married and I dont have a brother , is it really not allowed for me to go out alone ? Am i really a walking fitna that shall always hide herself or else I will be accountable for all people looking at me ? I am truly terrifies and scares and dont know how to live anymore

the worst teaching is a teaching that stop you from learning. a misleading information is bad enough, but information that prevent you from the truth is the worse
may Allah subhanahu wata'ala protect us from those teachers

Islaam is very simple in belief- actions by the Sunnah and do not set up any partners to Allah, and do not call to any one apart from Allah. Not every 1 needs a sheikh, those primative people dont have sheikhs! Knowledge is so abundant now, main thing to bear in mind is never set up next to Allah a taghoot- you will always keep on the straight path.

These are the people that make videos from the seat of their cars. And the sad thing is they have followers that believe and don't question them.

Sheikh Belal i have a question please concerning Dua
I saw how our dear prophet PBUH said when we make dua we shall make it with full conviction that Allah is going to answer and that We shall not haste the answer , and Allah said Call upon me I will answer you , also every prophet who made Dua was answered the same wxact way he made Dua , but scholars say Allah answers in 3 ways , but I never understood how Can I make Dua with full conviction that Allah is gonna answer but also keep in mind that He may not give me what I asked for ? For example If i pray for my sick mother to get better ? If years passed and nothing happened shall I stop making Dua and say maybe Allah answered in another way through removing hardships from our life or left it for day of judgement or shall I keep making Dua ? it s pretty much confusing for me , as Our prophet said Dua is the only thing that changes Allah s decree ( well ofc it was decreed that it would change the Decree Allah knew all that ) but like i find it contradictory that some scholars say Dua changes Decree but alao say you have to accept Allah s decree and can t make Dua as if you want to change it . i hope you can Help clarify this point Jazak Allah khayran sheikh

​Again, a huge thank you my dear Sheikh Belal for this lecture.
I hope that Allah (SWT) continues to grant you more knowledge and wisdom.
You are an asset to our Ummah, especially for our youth.
Especially because you make important contemporary topics that concern our young people open for discussion.
I also appreciate the personal experiences you use as examples to illustrate a point.
Knowledge is not bound by age, as long as you seek it in the right place.
I am also seeking.
JazakAllahu Khairan!

Someone put it quite right that "little knowledge is more dangerous than no knowledge ".

Huge respect for our scholars and Sheikhs who persevere patiently the challenges of the armchair experts, AI deceptions, and insolence of the ignorant and obdurate. Living in the times of ruwaibidhah, it's incumbent to educate ourselves in knowledge of deen to not fall prey to the misinformation churned out.

Eloquently delivered lecture, great content, specially references to the Quran and Hadith highlighting the gravity of the sin of perpetuating misinformation about Allah's Words. May Allah subhana always guide our hearts and tongues.. Ameen

Why Lies Can Appear Truthful
Power dynamics.
Politicians and corporations often control platforms that amplify their voices.
When repeated enough, even falsehoods can feel like truth.
People tend to believe information they hear frequently, regardless of accuracy.
With billions spent on advertising, lobbying, and PR, misinformation.

Why Truth Tellers Get Dismissed.
Labeling strategy. Calling someone crazy or conspiratorial is a way to delegitimize their Message/Truthfulness.
When Truth Tellers Get attacked from every corner, genuine truth can sound like just another opinion.

We're witnessing the very Hadith

Authentic hadiths, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ warned that near the end of time, truth would be rejected and falsehood would be embraced

These hadiths are not just predictions but warnings for Muslims to remain steadfast:

Hold firmly to Qur’an and Sunnah even when unpopular.

Be cautious about who you take guidance from.

Recognize that deception and misinformation are signs of spiritual decline.

Assalam u Alaikum, can you please deliver a lecture on " black magic ", like all the myths and false beliefs as well the authentic parts about it and ruqya. It is a major point of concern here in south Asia where a lot of people either try to do it to others or actually believe that everyone is doing black magic on them.
