Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl | First Direct-To-English Quran Commentary (Tafsir) In 40 Years

- Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl is one of the most distinguished and brilliant Islamic thinkers of our time, engaging Muslims and non-Muslims on numerous complex issues regarding the interpretation of the Islamic faith, law, and the Quran. In this interview, Dr. Safiyyah Ally probes him on several topics related to the Quran: how can we understand the Quran to have complete ethical coherence in its overall message? What has motivated Dr. Abou El Fadl to undertake Project Illumine: The Light of the Quran, the first direct-to-English Quran commentary (tafsir) in 40 years? In response, Dr. Abou El Fadl explains why each chapter of the Quran elevates human beings ethically beyond any specific period or historical moment. Likewise, he describes how the Prophet (peace be upon him) embodies in his legacy a living example of the content and function of God’s message as provided in the Quran. Uninterrupted and inseparable from self-conscious exegesis, the Quran’s message, described in each chapter, is brought to light with diverse explanations throughout this profound and extraordinary interview.

He is one of the most important thinkers of our time, not just among islamic thinkers.
@Unfamiliar Light from my experience, Dr Fadl brings back the spirit of Islam, his focus on the Islamic core of goodness, ethics, justice, and beauty are unparalleled when compared to rather stifling modern Muslim focus on legalistics
@Unfamiliar Light - well he was the first person to have identified the first racist individual in history, as related in the Qur'an. That makes him one of the greatest scholars in Islamic history.
@@stephenconnolly1830nd who was that racist? Also racism is a modern term defined on the basis of presentism
Totally agree!
I have had the great honour and privilege to listen to each of the Sheik’s halaqa since the beginning of this tafsir project. I honestly feel that listening to this will change your life, dispel doubts and elevate your state. I only pray that this contribution to our collective intellect is recognised and valued by the ummah as much as it deserves
Dr. Safiyyah Ally and Sheikh Khaled Abou El Fadl are two of the great Muslim voices of our times, they keep our religion alive (Dr. Shabir Ally being another such voice, of course). May God reward them for their efforts and bolster their truths
Not Safiyyah. She's a normie, just another mikhaila peterson riding daddies accomplishments, no offense but true.
Dr Khalid is a extraordinary scholar, we need more people like him
Would love to hear his take on why its fair that old widows inherit peanuts and court cases unjustly ruled upon or dismissed in the absence of male Muslim witnesses in Islamic courts.
@@Saby217 he adresses the issue of inheritance in some videos on TH-cam and more in detail in his book "Reasoning with God", highly recommended
Finally 😊
The guest I have been waiting to see on the show ❤
❤
MashaAllah, may Allah preserve this man and grant him barakah in this important work -- what a gift to our ummah.
I have begun watching his videos starting from surah al baqarah, and I think new converts will benefit a lot from watching these videos.
Shaykh El Fadl is the America first true Mujahid in our time and age God bless and support Usuli Institute
I am a keen follower of Prof Abou El Fadhl since 2017. I still remember what he said about the syariah law where he compelled all Muslims to better understand what its all about and do not think syariah law is the domain only for scholars. We need to master the syariah law as man on the steets so that we can better practise our ways as a Muslim and not be cowed by dubious scholars who misrepresent our religion just because they can mount a discourse on the syariah, and we are too scared to challenge their misrepresentations.
I truly have not encountered this type of intellect in my lifetime, may Allah increase Sh Khaled.
Beyond excited for this! My favourite scholar of our time. Alhamdulillah for this
What a great present from you, an hour long interview!🎉❤
Thank you for hosting this very special guest!
Shaykh Khaled Abou el Fadl!!!!
Mashal Allah
YESSS. WAllahi ive been waiting for this
Doctor shabbir can you talk about sheikh hassan farhan maliki a saudi scholar who is currently imprisoned due to his progressive views about islam and problems due to hadiths.
thank you for interviewing this great mind and man
This was so lovely 💕
Best crossover of all time
ماشاءاللہ
Hello can Non Muslim ,perform salah ??????
Watching 39:06 , he says “I believe my holy book is amazing “. , all theists believe their holy book is amazing
I am proud to be an Hindu 🕉 Hindu teaches us sanathan dharm 🙏 sanathan dharm means eternal, great teaching from our spiritual bhakti Rama Krishna Shiva hanuman, from bagwatgita Ramayana and veda, all is very good teaching, but Muslims think it's only idol worshipping, but it has great teaching, Muslims need to have a open mind and also learn about Hinduism teaching 🙏
Its greatness is only in relation to sound moral and ethical principles. Too often it is used as a tool by the privileged against the masses.
Before the Abbasids, the qur-an are about the Jewish scriptures and the Injeel.
The Shariah was the Law of Moses.
All of these managed by the Nazarene priests.
From the time of the Abbasids, no Nazarene priests.
The qur-an (Q 10:94) tell the the faithful to get their doubts cleared from the Nazarene clergy.
By removing the Nazarene clergy, the Abbasids changed the faith entirely.
Most of the interpretations of the qur-an became meaningless. A new man-made shariah was invented.
🎉😂😮I am aware of this since childhood!
Very interesting. Can you pls provide any link/book name on this?
@@jingulu Someone has written a book on the matter. Provide an email on your profile.
Dear Muslim brothers and sisters, please study the scholarship of Dr. Jay Smith on TH-cam to learn the history of the Quran, Mohammad and Islam. Thank you.
Lol. Jay smith is a joke and not a scholar. Hes simply a christian missionary
It’s like asking the demon to bless you.
HHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, i'll pass on that.
The professor assumes that the standard Islamic narrative is true and that it was the Quran that spearheaded the advancement of civilization.
The honor he accords to the Quran actually belongs to the Bible, however. It was the invention of the printing press that ushered in the modern era. Public education for all was instituted so that every child could learn the Bible in his own language, opening a new world of morality, philosophy, and rational thinking on a large scale that the world had never before seen. This is why Europe became dominant while the caliphate stagnated.
That is absolutely that!
Islam will also died due the lack of Arabic speaking and understanding..
Most people mare starting to understand that, if they don’t speak or read Arabic properly, they are paralyzed..
Indonesia the biggest Islamic country they don’t speak or read Arabic and also
The Arabic supremacist over the non Arabic Muslims wil keep their caliphates in the doom center.
That's wishful thinking by a Christian. If one is to believe your theory, the bible in fact had the opposite effect. People began to see the idiocies of the bible and moved towards science and away from the dogmatic Church and Christianity. The opposite effect than you claim in fact.
@@shahram6869 The wishful thinking comes from you. You want to re write the Church out of the history of western civilization, but that is a 20th century development.
@@peterhwang352 I'm not rewriting the Church out of history. I'm placing it right at the centre of Western history in that it was the cause of the enlightenment, not because it was a force for good but quite the opposite. Read any history book about the enlightenment. Or don't. Either way the plummeting of Christianity since the enlightenment is self evident.
@@peterhwang352 - the Qur'an, as Professor Abou el-Fadl has detailed in his Project Illumine commentary, is a revolutionary text which brought enlightenment to the world as opposed to the Bible which kept it in the dark ages until the advent of the Qur'an. If you bothered to watch the Project Illumine videos you would understand why this is the case and why your comment above is simply ridiculous.
It was the Bible that tranformed Germanic and Anglo-Saxon barbarians into the most advanced civilizations in the world. All of the Islamic peoples had more glorious ages in the past: Mesopotamians, Egyptians, Phoenicians, Persians, etc.
What poor reasoning. What did the Bible then do to the Italians, Greeks? 😂😂
@@oay335 Don't worry, all nations will get more time in the Son.
@@oay335 it is because if the Bible that you can travel freely before the 9/11
@@peterhwang352 lol
i am a greek and muslim

I thought Shabbir Ali is a heretic.
People who advocate this are more probably the true heretics (to use your terminology).
Fear Allah in your dealings.
