@@laminoor566 The commenter is pointing out the hypocrisy of Mr. Ramadan's conjecture, in the realm of actions speak louder than ancient written words.

The true form of Islam is to act kind. Most moslems forget about a word 'Akhlak' that means good attitude. This.. is, actually, the main Mohammad message. But, many of them seems to forgetting it and too focused on sins/worship issues. And not about social relationship between individuals. Islam, even in it's communal form, actually very individual based religion. I mean, you need to fix yourself first before looking outside. Judging, prejudice, and in this case... Feeling 'holier' than others is also a sin.

I've seen some muslims claiming that "islamic states" as in incorporating islam into the laws are actually not what islam aspires to have (A journalist, Mehdi Hassan wrote about it). Do you agree with that? To what extent is shariah law a part of Islam? Does "islamic type of government" exist in Quran at all?

@@piratassarajevo4293 Tbh most muslims aren't taught enough about their religion. I am actually studying Fiqh (islamic jurisprudence) in Cape Town, S. Africa. Most muslims are not middle-easterners. Point being that Islam is both a world wide religion and it has a history that rivals any of the older religions in complexity. I'm going to say some things and I will elaborate on each that anyone wants more information on. Although there were many Muslim countries, none were Islamic states. There is misunderstanding on the meaning of sharia, it is not Islamic law. Sharia is a metaphorical description that encompasses how a Muslim should live their lives. Muslims are okay with western laws, until in stops us from expressing our faith and love of God The Quran was not a comprehensive book. Similarly in physics, in Islamic theology it's as if the content is purposefully incomplete. It is implied that although there is a good path, the Quran doesn't touch on why's, how's and what's about the stuff it says. Not because there aren't reasons but because it's our Jeehad to figure it out Meaning that, as of now any muslim Scholar House does not lay claim to having a universal Sharia or even Fiqh

@@muhammadedwards8425 so in reality, it's better to keep the state secular (even when the majority is muslim) since islam doesnt really stipulate how the government+law should be established? And shariah is the product of cultures+different interpretations rather than a fixed guideline from quran....am I understanding it correctly?

@@saadidrissi3181 Firstly, Sharia literally means the straightest path to a source of fresh water. It is metaphorical for 'the way one should live their life'. And there is no agreed upon Sharia, the way people use the word now. Secondly, I mentioned most muslims don't know enough about the history of the practitioners of Islam and about Islamic concepts in general. Therefore, using their opinions on law is not a indicator of the religion itself. Also contrary to the opinions of those muslims, Islamic scholars have a long tradition of legal pluralism. Meaning different laws apply to different groups in society. Christendom follows Christian law etc. until two groups are involved. I think many muslims might be more open with this idea if they knew about their history Lastly, I mentioned metaphorical basis', the Quran is not a scientific book of miracles. No muslim scholar of the Quran who does his work would believe that because that does not correlate with the reasoning for it being revealed

Yes, he leans heavily on his imperfect fluency..

@@SantasGAINdeer All religious people that ever existed are atrociously dull? Why is it that throughout time the majority of scientists have been theists and they still are. Seems you're the dull one

That's the way of muslim apologists. Just keep talking to muddy down the debate and ignore hard facts.

he's in custody in france for raping several girl who were indoctrinated by his beliefs. he plays domination sex with girls and like to hurt them ...

@@pluggerizer Oh I guess he's overqualified then.

He's a wolf in sheep's clothes..like many islamists. Never let yourself be fooled by them, their only goal is to islamize as many non-muslim countries as possible to install caliphates with sharia law. Laws invented specially to subdue atheists, Christians and other religions.

Isn’t he under the cloud of numerous rape allegations?

He is practicing his religion lying quran quran 3 v 28

"There is no country of peace by definition" i would add. The world is at battle since the dawn of man. Religion is not the reason for it.

@@rubif5797 Religion and born from it the differences and orders to convert others and execute any who leaves. Yes sure "Religion is not the reason for it"

@@sparkynova4246 Wars are fought for recources and Land. Slavery and war is the result of greed. You can build rockets for destruction and for research. You can use knowledge for medicine and for chemical weapons. You can use religion for meditation and self reflection, for finding peace. And you can use it as a reason to fight. To say, "well i am an atheist So all evil must come from religion" is the same as to say, " i chose the right religion so i do the right thing and everybody else is evil." To feel superior and move all blame to the other side. This is why i will not be on either side. Both are wrong. For some reason nobody wants to find the bad inside themself. Allways blame the other side.

@@rubif5797 There is no country of peace, true. So when you hear countries declaring themselves that, doubt it, say it isn't true. The same goes for religions. When they say they are religions of peace, doubt it, say it isn't true. It isn't true in both cases; both nations and religions ARE causes for war. So you contest the argument by naming another source of war, namely the artificial boundaries that we draw on the ground and call national borders. That doesn't get religion off the accusation at all, and is irrelevant to it's defence. All you have done is introduce an additional culprit.

And profoundly damaging . He would not answer to the question of how the Hadith deals with apostates , to name only one question . This guy spent so much time selling his peaceful “ Islam that apostates leaving in France are scared of ally these “ peaceful “ muslims who threaten them with death .

Questions to antiomoral ideology of islam. 1) Can woman decide for herself, or her `caretaker` have deciding voice? 2) Can nonbeliever marry `muslim` woman? 3) How you should treat apostates from islam? 4) Why peace and freedom are in Islam synonyms to war and slavery(subjugation)? 5) How doas afterlife differs, depending on you being islamist/nonislamist man/woman or ... yourself up and becoming martyr? 6) Why women have to wear these bags, maybe islamist should just po.. their eyes, that will have multiple pros, like they will be unable to k!ll anybody, or it will be much harder?

January 2023 still the same...

Especially him.saying Turkey is moving in a progressive manner lmao

As expected by the history of islam.

even the most peaceful religions have radicals. Even hindus

@@TheTurbanator123 What do extremist buddhists do? Not suicide bombing lmao.

The extremely peaceful muslims you talk about lead humble life’s in this dunya, you won’t ever hear about them. SubhanAllah may everyone find peace and the truth Alhamdulillah Salamu alaykum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

@@Zoykzmc They have massacred many muslims in Myanmar for example

First look at the extremists in your own environment/country

What a peaceful man

He is literally following the footsteps of his prophet. A true Muslim.

Five time charged rapist Tariq Ramadan.

…you deal with violence..WTF?

Ramadan yes they’re weak then

wonder if Hitchens who claims to have studied Islam, does he know that Allah in the Qur’an hates and condemns sectarianism, division and tribalism among the Muslim Ummah? Does He know the prophetic tradition of prophet Muhammad condemns, fanatics, extremists and sectarianism. Does he know that Allah and prophet Muhammad warns the Muslim ummah against dividing into sects and division? Does he know that Prophet Muhammad predicted exactly how many sects the Jews, Christians and Muslims would divide into after his death?

@jesperjee Do you realize how foolish you are to make assumptions about an entire subject matter that you for sure, have never even studied at all? I’ll give you just a few things to research on your own, because whatever I say won’t matter to people like you. 1. Prophet Muhammad performed over 100 documented miracles, that are recorded by multiple companions in Hadith that you can go and research. 3. Allah, in the Qur’an talks about how the human heart oxidizes. It gives the analog of rust that forms over metal for the heart oxidizing. Prophet Muhammad talks about this in prophetic Hadith as well. He said the human heart oxidizes and needs to be polished. His companions Asked him how do we do that? He responded through Remembrance of death, Remembrance of God and through prayer. Prophet Muhammad also said that the human heart is also a source of knowledge. 1400 years ago, no human being knew this. This is only known now through modern medicine science. 3. 1400 years ago prophet Muhammad said in the future towards the latter days interest/usury will become so widespread, that no one will be able to escape its dust. He also said towards the latter days of this world, there will be an over abundance of food and wealth. These is a uniquely specific prophecies, that have all come into fruition. 4. 1400 years ago he said, the barefoot Bedouin Arabs, will compete in building the tallest buildings. Just 50 years ago the Arabian peninsula was a barren desert. Now it has the tallest buildings on earth. He said the Arabian peninsula will puke its treasures. That entire region is oil and mineral rich, providing the wealth to build these tall buildings. He also said the Arabian desert will become green AGAIN! Making the proclamation that thousands of years before Muhammad, the desert was green and meadowlands, and will become green again. According to modern geography and geology, the Arabian peninsula used to be green millennia ago, is becoming green AGAIN! 5. Prophet Muhammad predicted in latter days, sexual promiscuity will become so widespread, that new diseases will come about that did not exist among their ancestors and people will begin to have sexual intercourse in public. All of this is true today. There are literally dozens more predictions and prophecies that he made that you can research. You can literally research entire subject matter and discipline of the linguistic, Scientific and numeric miracles of the Qur’an In Arabic. The study of the Qur’an in Qu’ranic Arabic, has become an entire discipline and field of academia in western universities, even here in America, to the point where many academics are becoming Muslims. One of the Worlds top cosmologists/Astrophysicists, Bruno Guiergedoni, studied background radiation from the edges of the universe. He viewed the universe as signs that need to be interpreted, which is Ironically exactly what the Qur’an and Islam teach. According to the Muslim ulammah of scholars, say each ayah in the Qur’an (which ayah is essentially Arabic for verse, but literally means SIGN) each ayah in the Qur’an has 3 or 4 layers of meaning and there are over 6500 ayah/verses in the Qur’an. Bruno, studied the Qur’an and became a Muslim. Now he teaches Islamic Kalam philosophy, Science and the Qur’an all over the world. You can see his lectures here on UKposts!
