Salam Belal. You're one of my favorite and love to listen to your lecture. May Allah bless you. At 00:17:24 you said "In Surah El-Rahman Allah mentions…how the earth and the sky rotate". There is no Ayah refering to this. Sometimes you and other scholars are mixing "modern western science" with words of Allah. And it's a big mistake. Especially if you are quoting a Surah. It misleads the ummah thinking it's the word of Allah when it's not. It seems everytime "modern western science" and fairy tale Nasa come in the script the scholar shits from Allah's word to the other side taking it as the absolute truth. Even when it contradicts with Allah's word. Example in Surah Ar-Rahman, Verse 33 (55:33) Allah challenges both jinn and mankind, : "O assembly of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass. You will not pass except by authority [from Allah]." Which Nasa is lying in the face of the world and some scholars promoting this idea. And Allah knows best. Sorry I have to say that. Salam.

Two phrases are light on the tongue, heavy on the scales, and beloved to the Most Merciful: 'Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi, Subhan-Allahil-'Adzeem' (Glory is to Allah and all praise is to Him, Glory is to Allah the Almighty)." (Sahih al-Bukhari)

Dear sheikh, I love your lectures but I would like to ask, is it permissible to put pictures of women in your thumbnails? Is it not a fitnah for men? Is this pleasing to Allah?

I know i should be listening to the whole. what do out say sermon talk khutbah.. but just on a note of incase… of where the whole. Bateen is- when the world open and. a country. claim as in ISlam = Ignorant or the excuse in being ignorant and the idea of bliss. but the expense to the ones as done and case of "Fester" Assad the arabs Richard and MAlays doing El Ahrah. Fadzllah Azhar Abdullah( case in 2005 where MAlsy has taken and open boys. or flick and then making a no and mark down in my life and world denying al of my truth and being and doing the birth. ofah the boys has erasing every Iman if ever- of what derives EU- USA- not bragging but fact and the grace be the bit of conscious and aware- most time the rich by wealth of money not even intrinsic or souls and spirit or light gets to see the truth and light even the Chinese or where intel is odd one i questioned and level up) and few others and most case in the whole world of Islam the stealing of bodies and during of which what is of face today are what is to be. the build and creation of my sons faces world and more internal interior but al of taken by. culprits and hypocrites even books that they are not take and hold.. as done so where does this be. and. the whole idea. ofYoutube if ever between the. chance to know or ( the idea of holiness godliness and what is within some say the secrets of life within and where supreme being and all of where guards( on story when a door does not allow and as case where the whole idea of where story ancient that a clean heart be but in all Malaysia has already broken of all clean pure and painted int black mind you Malaysia Indonesia. claim to be Christian and. Islam which only means evil side of it.. if the revelation be and going to people victimised a game of no protocol- like isa d the entry. of heaven and hell goes by. protocol what is written of books like when you get stopped by a cop- he would ask you several question and what you have done wrong- SOP. and request of ID and license…what the next step is another if you are to be in court. if you are to step out from the car for their ID and it just pay .. a point and fact of. the matter if a bateen is invoke and played by all as case. is and taken all of how Chinese-Malay Muslims has consumed. and steal assets within. a body and realm to name and body.. or simply by. or what is exposed to cause… where does. this.. and the whole life and light? Example my boys has say he world or realm or the. life. of EPL ( case Wenger or where this. is Webb= Ferguson Pique yet… the idea of arbs or. those who likes tpay of what i true. and real the. SWOt of what gives. boys .. and yet… no debt or what is to them as. when its the universe only be is one. to care oneself but instead.. most sick game and breaking in be it. cabin crew celebrities or amongst..a it fo clarity would be appreciated thanks in advance- the case of that too of the amount or number of people who thinks they have. the right to eat my sons head and brains then of what is of Ilm Iman and the whole life of them was scholars instead.. and what demotes devalue and more…what is. o fthe "perancangan the kind of conspiracy and evil or the. bit of question of where womb. and seeds of my men and. the whole life and light?

"Allah has the Most Beautiful Names. So call upon Him by them…" Surah Al A'raf 7:180.

Sheikh, your lectures are really thought provoking. Sometimes explaining something complex so simply, and then boggling the mind by delving into the subtle intricacies of something that was seemingly straightforward.
And truly, Allah manifests in His creation. When you see the unseen energy fields holding up the moon, and wonder about the unfathomable vastness of the expanding universe. To the Design and Purpose of something as miniscule as halteres on a mosquito. Allah's presence feels more tangible than any of His tangible creation.
@51:20 manifestation and related concepts are so insidious and unfortunately rife. You are absolutely right about staying away even where it is not considered shirk, as somewhere it opens a little crack for shaytan to squeeze through, and before you know it, it has metastasized. May Allah protect us from knowingly or unknowingly committing shirk and oppressing our souls.
Jazak Allah Sheikh, I really needed this lecture to jump start my slightly burnt out soul.

🕋🔹Al Awwal-The First/Beginning 🔹Wal Akhir-The Final/End 🔹Az Zahir-Apparent/Manifest 🔹Wal Batin-Hidden/Inward
All 4 names come together in Surah Hadid verse 3
✨Al Awwal: Allah subhana is the First;Ultimate Creator, Ultimate Decider, Ultimate Controller of, everything that has come to be or any outcome that was manifested.
✨Wal Akhir: Any imaginable finality, Allah subhana is after it. Nothing can come into existence, nor manifest nor outcome, without Allah to have already allowed it and created it. (Al Qasas 28:88)
✨Az Zahir: 🔸The One who has revealed Himself to our minds and intellect, through evidence around us/within us, in His creation and anything perceived.(Surah Fussilat 41:53/Ali Imran 3:191 Allah praises those who ponder over & connect to Him through His creation). Allah Manifests through His creation, helps when one feels lost, make dua with more conviction & helps draw closer to Him in prayer🔸The Dominant, Who has control and power over everything. No loss is loss knowing Allah compensates and no worry, grief, fear can overpower, knowing Allah is The Overpowering🔸 Allah is above all things and nothing is above Him, He is outside of His creation and the laws He Himself created
✨Al Batin:🔸something not perceived by the senses and is concealed from the sight. (Al An'am 6:103)🔸The One Who knows everything, secrets, hidden aspects, inner workings of everything.
⚓These names dismantle all arguments of shirk as it unifies His Oneness in a way, so there is nothing even like the likeness of His names and attributes @38:58
◾Allah has called shirk the ultimate oppression as it is a destruction of Allah's guidance, and His protection of people's lives, faith, direction & destiny, as then anything can be altered if it is not from The One(Surah Luqman 13:13, Surah Nisa 4:48)
❗@51:20 Law of Attraction & Manifestation
🔺@54:10 Allah has given 4 ways of manifesting 🔹when you connect family ties, provision is blessed and life span increases and you are remembered in goodness after death🔹for peace and tranquility in heart, do Dhikr🔹give charity for abundance 🔹Hadith: If you want success be diligent in what benefits you, rely on Allah and don't be paralyzed.
📜@56:00 4 ways vision boards are halal🔸 knowing all power and outcomes belong to Allah🔸must put insha'Allah, refrain from thinking you can create through words and writings or board/universe make outcomes 🔸don't have a sense of entitlement that you made something happen🔸don't assume your knowledge of what's best for you is more than Allah's knowledge.
