This has got to be the most fascinating Islamic perspective content channel on the Internet. Paul is doing an amazing job preparing these informative videos, each one more interesting than the one before. I can’t wait for what lies ahead! May God reward you for your efforts and bless you.
Dr Hamid Choi from Korea (a convert to Islam, and who translated/interpreted Quran into Korean language) was a graduate of Madinah university, and also a dean of a famous Korean university (now retired). I hope one day he could also appear in your esteemed blogging theology. Korea, a country where atheism, islamophobia (that i have myself experienced particularly by Christians) and suicide, alcoholism, and lowest fertility rate in the world, and ageing population (where they stay lonely), Islam is the solution that many are not properly familiar.
@@Rlouis367 This is a public TH-cam channel, not a closed or private Facebook group. Provided people debate politely, it is open for all to comment. There are many Muslim commenters on Christian, atheist and Hindu channels - nothing wrong with that either, unless one fears to be challenged, of course.
@@laurameszaros9547 nobody stopping people to comment here (and muslim are rather happy when challenged about our belief and in return we also challenged their belief) but whats the value of baseless, mocking, emotional comment can bring into discussion/debate?
@@muhammadaiman6713 As far as I can see, although @Falcon Swoops wrote in a mocking tone, he was merely stating fact. Muslims are indeed allowed to marry four wives and also to discipline them. The "Kaboom" emoji was perhaps provocative, but he did not descend to ad hominem, which I agree would be unacceptable. You say that Muslims are happy to be challenged: my experience is that many are actually furious to have their beliefs questioned.
@@laurameszaros9547 the reality of women being more than men poses a challenge to procreation n distribution of a balanced male n female diasporia! The solution lies with the prescribed religion from the Creator Himself who allows the multiple marriages but with a strict n fair caviat! To be equally fair to all the legally acquired wives and if not able to to just have only one !
@@srnp0007 nonsense, you are intellectually dishonest or an intellectual dwarf. Science does never seek the why answer, and is very disingenuous asking the how question. Look at your dad Chdistopher Dawkins when asked why hé says why is such a silly question. How can you dismiss such an important question, even if hé believes it to be irrelevant. It shows that hé has an agenda.
@@MrHabib135 Dawkins is a panspermia believer. He believes aliens harvested the first seed of life in earth so life can begin on earth. These people have never seen God, neither aliens. But they decide to believe one and deny the other just BECAUSE. the irony is they didn't even settle down the score, OK aliens. So how did those aliens come to existence!?...
@@srnp0007 I agree that God doesn’t interfere in our daily lives and that we’re all equal while alive but I believe that there’s an afterlife.Different religions have have different understanding of the Creator.
@@srnp0007 in Islam Allah does not interfere with our daily living and even if He doesn’t it wouldn’t be obvious because it would defeat the purpose of scripture. 42/6 Quran As for those who take other protectors besides Him, Allah is Watchful over them. And you ˹O Prophet˺ are not a keeper over the them. As for which concept is the correct one that’s something can only be determined by the veracity of the book. 41:53.We will show to them Our signs in the horizon of the external world and within themselves,until it becomes clear to them that it’s the truth,but is it not sufficient concerning your lord that He is,over all things ,a witness?
There is a brother in Korea who work for the Korean airforce. He got into a coma, after an accident due to a plane crash. If can remember, he was in a coma for 8 months. Doctors had given up on him, but he gained consciousness. He was brought up without any religion. But he started looking for an answer why he gained consciousness when the doctors had given up on him. Whatever it may be, the first religion he wanted to learn was Islam (in a country where Muslims comprise less than 0.5% - although the Muslims lived in Korea historically, but disappeared during the King Sejong time). It was about 4 months since he started learning about Islam that covid 19 outbreak started. Korea was the second country that got the covid. Then the brother said he do not want to delay any more. Alhamdulillah, he took shahada, and I was a witness there.
Are You Korean ? What Do You Mean By 'Although The Muslims Lived In Korea Historically But Disappeared During King Sejong ? Can You Explain And Story To Us ? Please , For Me History Not Written Correctly . I Never Believed 100% In Modern(Written After World War) History .

Happy to see Dr Brown again. I never get bored with his conversion story which I heard tens of times before....may Allah SWT grant him and brother Paul firdaws.
This is really a blessing from Allah, we hardly get time to read a beneficial book to our children Yet there are so many brothers out there doing Dawah and Writing books beside their highly demanding professions. May Allah grant him more!
Masha Allah. Dr Brown is the type of Muslim that makes me proud to be a Muslim myself. Thank you for inviting him brother Paul and may your channel continues to have more intellectual discussions in the future . May Allah keep us all in his mercy. Ameen.
I am a born muslim from Malaysia. I find many Reverts from the professional, scientific and educational background have a very clear idea of what Islam is all about and how to da'wah non-muslims. I wish to express my greatest admiration for all the initiatives. May Allah reward all Reverts who have been involved in whatever method of Da'wah, a place in Jannatul Firdaus.
My dream came true today when you finally interviewed Dr. Laurence Brown! I had mentioned his name in the comment section in a couple of other videos in hopes that you might one day interview this enlightened fellow. I’m so glad it finally happened!!! I had the good fortune of meeting his younger brother about four years ago who also converted to Islam. Thanks Paul Williams for this interview. It was food for my mind and soul!
@@Sunda_Dutch I had interaction before with John , such a lovely ,nice man and truth seeker ... very sincer . I just wish that he become one of the Umma . Let us all pray for him and for each others .
Brother Paul salaam alaikum, the interview with Dr Lawrence brown was a scholarly interview. Thank you so much for bringing in a living proof of an atheist becoming Muslim, he's such a wise gentleman. Please bring him more often. See if you can also bring Jeffrey Lang, hell be another amazing addition to your channel.
Alhamdulillah Brother Paul. “Say: ‘O you mankind! Now truth (i.e. the Quran and the Prophet Muhammad), has come to you from your Lord. So whosoever receives guidance, he does so for the good of his own self; and whosoever goes astray, he does so to his own loss; and I am not (set) over you as a Wakeel (disposer of affairs to oblige you for guidance).’” [Yunus 10:108]
From the Qur'an: Surat Al-Mā'idah 5:32 " Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors." .. * Surat Al isra 23-26* . "For your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And honour your parents. If one or both of them reach old age in your care, never say to them ˹even˺ ‘ugh,’ nor yell at them. Rather, address them respectfully" 23 "And be humble with them out of mercy, and pray, “My Lord! Be merciful to them as they raised me when I was young.”24 "Your Lord knows best what is within yourselves. If you are righteous, He is certainly All-Forgiving to those who ˹constantly˺ turn to Him"25 "Give to close relatives their due, as well as the poor and ˹needy˺ travellers. And do not spend wastefully"26 ------------------- From the Bible : . *Matthew 10:34* 34 “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. . *Isaiah 13:16* . 16 Their infants(BA) will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses will be looted and their wives violated.(BB) . *Numbers 31:9-12* . 9And the children of Israel took the women of Midian captive, with their little ones, and took as spoil all their cattle, all their flocks, and all their goods. 10They also burned with fire all the cities where they dwelt, and all their forts. 11And they took all the spoil and all the booty-of man and beast

The truth is, we Muslims don’t realize how good we have it-how grateful we ought to be for having such a logically consistent religion that teaches such a beautiful & simple message that resonates with both the mind and heart. Many Jews or Christians for example are constantly doubting and questioning their faith because of the gaps in their religious narratives or the illogical aspects such as the Trinity & atonement, etc. whereas Islam provides a perfectly coherent & comprehensive message that accounts for everything from A to Z and addresses the hard questions, while explaining our origin, purpose, and ultimate destination as humanity (and even beyond humanity). Indeed, one can say that we are “theologically spoiled”, and it’s high time we stop taking that for granted and be more grateful & motivated to learn more and share the profound message of Islam (‘full submission & surrender to God’) with others. Peace/Salam to all, and thank you brother Paul & Dr. Lawrence Brown for the wonderful stimulating discussion. Looking forward to see more, God-willing.
When persons like Dr. Brown come up with passionate & convincing arguments on the truth of the Islamic faith, it hugely strengthens my feeble faith, even while being a born Muslim.
Awesome interview, came across his revert story some time ago, still remember it to this day, in fact was just talking about it a few days ago. Dr. laurence B. Brown always strikes me as a very honest and sincere person. May Allah Swt reward you both

Dr Brown makes things easy to understand .. Thank you Paul for having him on BT. I love when he said "I wouldn't give up my capacity of critical thought just to embrace a religion". It truly fits me and this BT channel really satisfies me a lot in continuously elevating my intellectual understanding of truth, rather than just "seeking a convenience " as Dr Brown said.

Brilliant discussion. I really enjoyed watching this. I listened to Dr Lawrence long time ago and MashahAllah he is very wise. May Allah increase our knowledge and iman.
Dr Laurence may Allah reward you for your efforts and for all the good you do to sober up people and challenge them to start thinking and use their intellect! Intellect and reason will eventually prevail, it is inevitable! All these corrupted so-called religions and atheism invented by evil people to control the world and enjoy a comfortable life will eventually disappear and only absolute obedience to God and his will (Islam) will remain!
Brother Paul May Allah bless you and reward you, pushing that great islamic content, reminds me of hadith bukhari 3011.. brother doing his most mashallah. More than lots of born-muslims.
No exaggeration, this is a must watch by EVERYONE regardless their beliefs. Thanks so much Paul! And Dr Brown may Allah Almighty reward you with Aljannah, ameen.
It has been quite a few times, I’ve heard Mr. Brown’s story, he’s a blessed scholar of Islam so does Mr. Paul William may Allah bless you both. Whenever I hear the story of Mr. Brown conversion story uncontrollable tears trickle down my eyes.
Dr. Brown , I ‘m so happy to see & hope u will guide others through ur beautiful story ,thank u so much Paul , u r always making our days with ur beautiful people & ur amazing conversations Blessings & prayers for both of u amen 🤲🏻🌺🌺
Thank you brother Paul and your humble guest for this beautiful and interesting video, and may God reward you well in both lifes for this good work. In my opinion, atheism could lead to no fear of divine judgement, to doing evil, to no respect and hate of others, to transgression and oppression of others. Nice continuation. Your fun from Morocco.
Today I subscribed to your channel brother Paul. I don’t want to miss any of your future videos. So informative and you are really doing a great job. May Allah reward you for your great efforts to promote Islam in such fascinating and informative way. I wish non-Muslims can access your videos and benefit from the content.
Paul, you are doing such an amazing job, may Allah bestow his mercy and blessings on you for your effort in spreading the truth, the only religion that make sense and can explain everything from atom to the universe and everything in between. We want to see more distilled wisdom
His books are written in such that it attracts the Western mind and psychology. They love fiction books. In his books he in a intelligent way arouses interest in the story but the core is to give Dawah to the Christians and Jews
A superb interview. Absolutely fascinated by Dr Brown's story. Goosebump all over hearing about his prayer regarding his daughter being answered so quickly. SubhanAllah.
Brother Paul Williams May Allah swt bless you abundantly for the tireless Job you doing to bring Dawa live to people, equally am very happy with Mr Brown
I've heard this wise joke from Sh. Hamza Yusuf, it's funny but deep at the same time: Some atheist biologists meet God, and God asks them what they are up to, and they said, "We've gotten rid of you...!". And God asked the biologists "How did you get rid of me?". They say, "Well, we can explain how we got here without you!". And He said, "How would you do that?". They say, "Well first we take some cosmic dust..." And God says, "No, no, wait a second; get your own dust..."
Aslm brother Paul excellent again what a calm beautiful man in Dr Lawrence after finding the real faith of peace I've seen him Dr zakir naik. Another 10 star conversation brother may Allah bless u all abundantly
It is the difference between seeking convenience and seeking the TRUTH.That is a powerful statement.Thank you bro Paul for this terrific intellectual interview.
MashaAlla.. Seeing this chanel, I get more knowledge. I increasingly believe that Islam is the only true religion and only islam is thought by the creator of the universe. (Alam)
As pointed out by Dr lawrence it was godly obligation upon Our Creator to see that truth reaches Mankind to guide him to the ultimate aim --- mercy of Allah in the form of Paradise and eternal bliss .There are hundreds of verses in the Quran where Allah tells us that He revealed it and will protect it from adulteration.The very solid proof of this is that there are millions of muslims today ,elders ,young and children alike who have memorised the entire Quran to their hearts although Quran is in Arabic and is not in their mother tongue .What else can explain this phenomenon other than that its from Our Creator ,Allah, Who has no equal ,no son or daughter, no partner ,Who neither slumbers nor sleeps ,Who is the First and the Last without a beginning or an end ,Who encompasses everything in His knowledge and above all Who is not answerable to anyone for what He ordains and does.
Beautiful takeaway: When you experience a spiritual thirst or an intellectual void, it’s often easiest to gravitate toward the religion that is most culturally and socially accessible. However, there is a crucial distinction between seeking convenience and seeking truth. At times, the truth is unmistakable, yet the emotional challenges, social challenges, and practical challenges it presents can be daunting. In the face of these challenges, those who are weaker, or perhaps less resolute may choose the path of convenience, opting to ignore the truth despite its clarity.
"If Allah means for a person to you know be guided in the direction, Allah will guide him with or without you. " What a conclusion! Beautiful video. Thanks brother Paul.

There is a brother in Korea who work for the Korean airforce. He got into a coma, after an accident due to a plane crash. If can remember, he was in a coma for 8 months. Doctors had given up on him, but he gained consciousness. He was brought up without any religion. But he started looking for an answer why he gained consciousness when the doctors had given up on him. Whatever it may be, the first religion he wanted to learn was Islam (in a country where Muslims comprise less than 0.5% - although the Muslims lived in Korea historically, but disappeared during the King Sejong time). It was about 4 months since he started learning about Islam that covid 19 outbreak started. Korea was the second country that got the covid. Then the brother said he do not want to delay any more. Alhamdulillah, he took shahada, and I was a witness there.

Alhamdulillah Brother Paul. “Say: ‘O you mankind! Now truth (i.e. the Quran and the Prophet Muhammad), has come to you from your Lord. So whosoever receives guidance, he does so for the good of his own self; and whosoever goes astray, he does so to his own loss; and I am not (set) over you as a Wakeel (disposer of affairs to oblige you for guidance).’”
[Yunus 10:108]
From the Qur'an:
Surat Al-Mā'idah 5:32
" Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors."
..
* Surat Al isra 23-26*
.
"For your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And honour your parents. If one or both of them reach old age in your care, never say to them ˹even˺ ‘ugh,’ nor yell at them. Rather, address them respectfully" 23
"And be humble with them out of mercy, and pray, “My Lord! Be merciful to them as they raised me when I was young.”24
"Your Lord knows best what is within yourselves. If you are righteous, He is certainly All-Forgiving to those who ˹constantly˺ turn to Him"25
"Give to close relatives their due, as well as the poor and ˹needy˺ travellers. And do not spend wastefully"26

PROOF IN THE BIBLE WHY JESUS IS NOT GOD
...
1)JOHN 5:30,36,37
30] I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
...
[36] But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
[37] And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
2)-JOHN 6:14

21 “Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died.(R) 22 But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.”(S)
....
41 So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up(AS) and said, “Father,(AT) I thank you that you have heard me. 42 I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here,(AU) that they may believe that you sent me.”(AV)
5) JOHN 14:28
28 “You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’(AT) If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father,(AU) for the Father is greater than I.(AV)

3 God came from Teman,(A)
the Holy One(B) from Mount Paran.[a](C)
His glory covered the heavens(D)
and his praise filled the earth.(E)
4 His splendor was like the sunrise;(F)
rays flashed from his hand,
where his power(G) was hidden.
5 Plague(H) went before him;
pestilence followed his steps.

*Genesis 21:17-21*
17 God heard the boy crying,(A) and the angel of God(B) called to Hagar from heaven(C) and said to her, “What is the matter, Hagar? Do not be afraid;(D) God has heard the boy crying as he lies there. 18 Lift the boy up and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation.(E)”
19 Then God opened her eyes(F) and she saw a well of water.(G) So she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
20 God was with the boy(H) as he grew up. He lived in the desert and became an archer. 21 While he was living in the Desert of Paran,(I) his mother got a wife for him(J) from Egypt.

* SAHIH AL-BUKHARI 1889:
... The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Curse Shaiba bin Rabi`a and `Utba bin Rabi`a and Umaiya bin Khalaf as they turned us out of our land to the land of epidemics." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then said, "O Allah! Make us love Medina as we love Mecca or even more than that. O Allah! Give blessings in our Sa and our Mudd (measures symbolizing food) and make the climate of Medina suitable for us, and divert its fever towards Aljuhfa." Aisha added: When we reached Medina, it was the most unhealthy of Allah's lands, and the valley of Bathan (the valley of Medina) used to flow with impure colored water

*4)In Song of Solomon 5:16*, the verse in Hebrew transliteration is:
*ḥikkōw mamṯaqqîm wəḵullōw maḥămaddîm zeh ḏōwḏî wəzeh rê‘î, bənōwṯ yərūšālim*
חִכּוֹ֙ מַֽמְתַקִּ֔ים וְכֻלּ֖וֹ מַחֲמַדִּ֑ים זֶ֤ה דוֹדִי֙ וְזֶ֣ה רֵעִ֔י בְּנ֖וֹת יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
Now interesting thing is verse 16 as you know it says in Hebrew *Muhammadim*
In Hebrew im is an attribute, this verse can be translated as
His mouth is more sweet yea he is Muhammad
This verse also confirms the prophecy about Muhammad in *Deuteronomy 33 verse 2* where It speaks about someone who will turn up in the land Of Paran with 10000 saint and fiery law in right hand(quran) "The lord came from Siani and rose up from seir unto them he Shined Forth from mount Paran and he came With ten thousand saints From his right hand went fiery law for them"
Now according to *genesis 21:21* Paran is where Ishmael and Hagar Dwelt. Paran is the land of ishmael
Now the question is who came to the land of ishmael with 10000 saints and fiery law in right hand ?
Its written in sahih Bukhari book 59 hadith no 574 that prophet Muhammad came to mecca with 10000 warriors.

*5)Matthew 21:42-43*

42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures:
“‘The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;
the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes’[a]?(A)
43 “Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you(B) and given to a people who will produce its fruit.
.
*Sahih al-Bukhari 3535*
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "My similitude in comparison with the other prophets before me, is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully, except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go about it and wonder at its beauty, but say: 'Would that this brick be put in its place!' So I am that brick, and I am the last of the Prophets."

*6)Genesis 49:10*
10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
**Shiloh - As noted above, the etymology of the term “Shiloh” is ambiguous. It has been interpreted to mean “offspring,” “the one sent out,” “he to whom it [the scepter] belongs,” “rest-giver,” or “peace-bringer

* Qur'an AlA'RAF( 7:157)*
those who follow the Messenger, the Ummiyy (unlettered) prophet whom they find written with them in the Torah and the Injīl , and who bids them what is fair and forbids what is unfair, and makes lawful for them good things, and makes unlawful for them impure things, and relieves them of their burden, and of the shackles that were upon them. So, those who believe in him and support him, and help him and follow the light sent down with him, - those are the ones who are successful.”

17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.
18 But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever
....
23 “He gave me this explanation: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it.(A) 24 The ten horns(B) are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. 25 He will speak against the Most High(C) and oppress his holy people(D) and try to change the set times(E) and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.[a](F)
26 “‘But the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed(G) forever. 27 Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of all the kingdoms(H) under heaven will be handed over to the holy people(I) of the Most High.(J) His kingdom will be an everlasting(K) kingdom, and all rulers will worship(L) and obey him.

The truth is, we Muslims don’t realize how good we have it-how grateful we ought to be for having such a logically consistent religion that teaches such a beautiful & simple message that resonates with both the mind and heart. Many Jews or Christians for example are constantly doubting and questioning their faith because of the gaps in their religious narratives or the illogical aspects such as the Trinity & atonement, etc. whereas Islam provides a perfectly coherent & comprehensive message that accounts for everything from A to Z and addresses the hard questions, while explaining our origin, purpose, and ultimate destination as humanity (and even beyond humanity). Indeed, one can say that we are “theologically spoiled”, and it’s high time we stop taking that for granted and be more grateful & motivated to learn more and share the profound message of Islam (‘full submission & surrender to God’) with others. Peace/Salam to all, and thank you brother Paul & Dr. Lawrence Brown for the wonderful stimulating discussion. Looking forward to see more, God-willing.
When persons like Dr. Brown come up with passionate & convincing arguments on the truth of the Islamic faith, it hugely strengthens my feeble faith, even while being a born Muslim.
Wow.. Dr. Brown!!
I'm a Huge fan.
❤️🙏

“People trip over the truth and sometimes never look back.”
That was an excellent statement. I liked it
I'm eager to dive into the pages of his fantastic gem of a book The First and Final Commandment!
You won’t regret reading his book!
Very enlightening. Hope this discussion will lead others to seek truth.
Great episode by great Islamic scholars ... May Allah reward you ...
I can't Waite to become a scholar n get on the show...
I was so pleased when this came up in my feed, Dr Brown is not well known enough
Your channel is a one in a billion, easily br. Paul.
Awesome interview, came across his revert story some time ago, still remember it to this day, in fact was just talking about it a few days ago. Dr. laurence B. Brown always strikes me as a very honest and sincere person. May Allah Swt reward you both
@40:53 a crying moment in joy, SubhanAllah what a beautiful word he said, Its He who put faith in your heart....tears of joy
I rewinded few seconds back to understand the context, it is really a humbling situation
Please have more interview with Dr. Brown. Thank you.
I was waiting the invitation of Dr Brow to this channel, his story is facinating. Thanks Paul.
Dr. Brown has always been one of my very best!!!
BAFS
This is going to be good. Two knowledgeable people talking about religion. We need alot more of this in the modern world
Well explained. I like the way you navigated to find the true religion.Quran is a book of science, , signs, guidelines waning spiritual and points towards God.Thank you Paul for having Dr Laurens in your show. 😘❤️
‘Allah chooses whom He guides and whom He leads astray’, profound words from Dr Brown. Thx for sharing Paul.
Asalamwalikum bro are you indian
Another amazing discussion with two distinguished gentlemen. Thank you so much to you both. May Allah bless us with converts like you.
Excited to watch this!
Dr Brown makes things easy to understand .. Thank you Paul for having him on BT. I love when he said "I wouldn't give up my capacity of critical thought just to embrace a religion". It truly fits me and this BT channel really satisfies me a lot in continuously elevating my intellectual understanding of truth, rather than just "seeking a convenience " as Dr Brown said.
Mas Joko Kusmanto boso Inggris e pinter sangettt.. saestu 👍 Dalem mirengaken BT sampun dangu awiting Mr. Paul dereng Islam, nanging nggih kathah mboten mudenge 😁😁

This was Fascinating. Thanks Paul.
Brother Brown is a well researched and a very keen person, mashallah! Learning from him is amazing! And this idea of him to put Da'wa also in Action-Thriller novels! Another really wise move! So much respect and support!
I need to study his books! And share with others!
Brother Paul doesn't know how to disappoint. Another excellent guest and interview.
Dr Brown is a great man, he is the most inspiring human being I have ever known . I love his testimony on his belief in God. From that day onwards he never stopped in Gods words.❤️
Big fan of Dr Brown's work. Just ordered more of his work. Br Paul.... ur raising levels. Thank u for this video. Jzk
Brilliant discussion. I really enjoyed watching this. I listened to Dr Lawrence long time ago and MashahAllah he is very wise. May Allah increase our knowledge and iman.
I pray may Allah grant dr brown jannah. Allah is great and most merciful.
ماشاء اللّٰه!
May Allah bless both of you.
The sound of azan in the background is so beautiful...!
Dr Laurence may Allah reward you for your efforts and for all the good you do to sober up people and challenge them to start thinking and use their intellect! Intellect and reason will eventually prevail, it is inevitable! All these corrupted so-called religions and atheism invented by evil people to control the world and enjoy a comfortable life will eventually disappear and only absolute obedience to God and his will (Islam) will remain!
Brother Paul May Allah bless you and reward you, pushing that great islamic content, reminds me of hadith bukhari 3011.. brother doing his most mashallah. More than lots of born-muslims.
salam paul end dr laurence B brown nice dawah mashallah.i from france
No exaggeration, this is a must watch by EVERYONE regardless their beliefs. Thanks so much Paul! And Dr Brown may Allah Almighty reward you with Aljannah, ameen.
It has been quite a few times, I’ve heard Mr. Brown’s story, he’s a blessed scholar of Islam so does Mr. Paul William may Allah bless you both. Whenever I hear the story of Mr. Brown conversion story uncontrollable tears trickle down my eyes.
لا اله الا الله و ان محمداً عبدك و رسولك و لن نعبد الا سواك حتى الممات.

A very useful discussion. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Alhamdullilah, great conversation
Paul you are bringing an excellent guidance for all of us, May Allah reward you in this dunya and Akhira Ameen.
It's a absolute pleasure to hear Dr. Lawrence. May Allah bless him with healthy life
Ameen
Thank you brother Paul and your humble guest for this beautiful and interesting video, and may God reward you well in both lifes for this good work. In my opinion, atheism could lead to no fear of divine judgement, to doing evil, to no respect and hate of others, to transgression and oppression of others. Nice continuation. Your fun from Morocco.
Today I subscribed to your channel brother Paul. I don’t want to miss any of your future videos. So informative and you are really doing a great job. May Allah reward you for your great efforts to promote Islam in such fascinating and informative way. I wish non-Muslims can access your videos and benefit from the content.
Welcome aboard! ❤️🙏
Paul, you are doing such an amazing job, may Allah bestow his mercy and blessings on you for your effort in spreading the truth, the only religion that make sense and can explain everything from atom to the universe and everything in between.
We want to see more distilled wisdom

His books are written in such that it attracts the Western mind and psychology. They love fiction books. In his books he in a intelligent way arouses interest in the story but the core is to give Dawah to the Christians and Jews
That’s what I’m doing with my novel series. At the core of it, I’m giving Dawah.

A superb interview. Absolutely fascinated by Dr Brown's story. Goosebump all over hearing about his prayer regarding his daughter being answered so quickly. SubhanAllah.
Thanks!
Many thanks Tasnia!
Great interview, and interviewing skills too.
Convert stories humble me. This shows that this naimah is for truly thinking individuals. Masha'Allah
Brother Paul Williams May Allah swt bless you abundantly for the tireless Job you doing to bring Dawa live to people, equally am very happy with Mr Brown
Dr Brown and Paul. Interesting discussion. May Allah blessed you guys. 👍
No doctor i think longer videos make more sense , hence i enjoyed a lot. Thank you both for your time and effort.
I've heard this wise joke from Sh. Hamza Yusuf, it's funny but deep at the same time:
Some atheist biologists meet God, and God asks them what they are up to,
and they said, "We've gotten rid of you...!".
And God asked the biologists "How did you get rid of me?".
They say, "Well, we can explain how we got here without you!".
And He said, "How would you do that?".
They say, "Well first we take some cosmic dust..."
And God says, "No, no, wait a second; get your own dust..."
Hahah good one!
Aslm brother Paul excellent again what a calm beautiful man in Dr Lawrence after finding the real faith of peace I've seen him Dr zakir naik. Another 10 star conversation brother may Allah bless u all abundantly
Great work Mr. Paul love these videos - keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍
Glad you like them!
It is the difference between seeking convenience and seeking the TRUTH.That is a powerful statement.Thank you bro Paul for this terrific intellectual interview.
Excellent talk.. Asking Allah reward you
Great interview.
Please interview Sheikh Muhammad Tim Humble in future
This was an amazing conversation! It’s good to see Dr. Brown after a long time!
Thank dr.brown
ALLAH BLESS YOU 🤲🤲🤲❤
Another excellent guest on your show 👍 Thanks 🙏 for spreading positive thoughts 💭
Glad you enjoyed it!
MashaAlla.. Seeing this chanel, I get more knowledge.
I increasingly believe that Islam is the only true religion and only islam is thought by the creator of the universe. (Alam)
This is the right direction and a discovery that many have embraced :) feel free to ask any questions you may have :)
As pointed out by Dr lawrence it was godly obligation upon Our Creator to see that truth reaches Mankind to guide him to the ultimate aim --- mercy of Allah in the form of Paradise and eternal bliss .There are hundreds of verses in the Quran where Allah tells us that He revealed it and will protect it from adulteration.The very solid proof of this is that there are millions of muslims today ,elders ,young and children alike who have memorised the entire Quran to their hearts although Quran is in Arabic and is not in their mother tongue .What else can explain this phenomenon other than that its from Our Creator ,Allah, Who has no equal ,no son or daughter, no partner ,Who neither slumbers nor sleeps ,Who is the First and the Last without a beginning or an end ,Who encompasses everything in His knowledge and above all Who is not answerable to anyone for what He ordains and does.
What a lovely man ,great discussion.The sincerity and honesty shows on his face .👍
Beautiful takeaway:
When you experience a spiritual thirst or an intellectual void, it’s often easiest to gravitate toward the religion that is most culturally and socially accessible. However, there is a crucial distinction between seeking convenience and seeking truth. At times, the truth is unmistakable, yet the emotional challenges, social challenges, and practical challenges it presents can be daunting. In the face of these challenges, those who are weaker, or perhaps less resolute may choose the path of convenience, opting to ignore the truth despite its clarity.
So inspiring, thank you Paul for making this happen.....looking for more and more inspiring interviews.
Finally, Dr. Brown appeared again. Thank you Blogging Theology for inviting him.
"If Allah means for a person to you know be guided in the direction, Allah will guide him with or without you. " What a conclusion! Beautiful video. Thanks brother Paul.
Thanks Paul.. Had watched Dr Brown's videos before n really impressed with his work n da'wah 💕💕
