People like this that will Make Islam goes bigger and bigger for more several years! God is the Greatest!
which god is that kid, given facts are there isn't a shred of proof of any gods/allah, zilch of anything…AND the koran proves islam is a sick and cruel hoax and its the cowardly/ignorant/trapped who remain shackled by it
god greatest at WHAT exactly lol????
Glenys Wiseman cowardly ignorant trapped? you seem to be describing yourself. These fine young white christian women convert to Islam in droves because they do it with a measured informed approach. You being a Jew seem to be repelling the notion that there is a creator. you are entitled to that opinion.
ISLAM BIG DRUG USER ARE BIG. The difference both mingle one's based disguising darkness ritual philosophy. The other is addicted to a drug both are homeless which secular rendezvous is deceit.
@@glenyswiseman5582 did you even listen to the talk. did you even read the Quran. read the first sentence in the Quran and you will now what kind of god we have
So true, Islam needs to be practiced without the cultural baggage.
essentially, yes
The Wrong is All intended Lies towards Islam & Muslim must STop. These Lies led to War and led to Destruction. It did not benefit anyone
chant darkness silence is the echoing of the lost.
I'm pretty sure that's not why Islam is an Abrahamic religion.
Amazing that many Christians forget how the beloved Virgin Mary dressed!
It's controversial that so many went astray to an estranged illusion to death.
ALHAMULILLAH.ALLAH WILL GIVE JANNATHUL FIRDOWS FOR YOU.
I don't wanna go debate with other because if they give their own point view must I have my own Rights then will be begin religious war so please close this chapter now
Dear sister Lisa, thank you from the bottom of my heart! I wish I came to learn about you during my teenage years. You're a great role model and inspiration to Muslim women. I was so far away from my religion for a long time but Alhumdulillah I came back to deen!
DUST can do that to a person disrupt cause darkness lost in the death of Islam. MAN IS LOST IN RITUAL DARKNESS. JESUS SAID IF you gain the whole world but lose your soul. Jesus said no man cometh to the Father but by me.
I loved the tone and enthusiasm of this woman. She spoke the words of the only version of the Quran that I have ever read, one which protected women. Sadly over the years I have heard so much negativity supposedly from the Quran or Hadith that I began to wonder if I'd read a fake translation. I have worked with muslims and found them to be both friendly and charitable, and wish more people would judge them not for their extremists, but for the people of faith. I am a Sephardic jew, not a Zionist, and my people found safety and acceptance amongst Islam. It was the Christians who instituted a pogram against us in Spain leading us to seek safety elsewhere (then the pograms of Russia and Germany). Until her death, my grandmother stood up for the people of the Book. I admit that I have made mistakes and assumptions about Sharia, and that some of it was done from fearmongering in the press. We need to talk to one and other, especially when so many fanatics exist to damn all the People, when the L-rd our G-d would stand for all of us, let us seek the heart of G-d not the selfishness of man, so that the word of the L-rd our G-d will show us the way through compassion, understanding and our ultimate oneness under the Messiah to come.
J.A. Young Very well said. You got my respect.
Great job , Dr.killinger! Great advice for men, if you see your women in need of help, fairness, or an advocate stand up to help them. And woman smile and look happy in Islam...smile in hijab. And a personal thought, when searched at the airport share Islam, look for opportunities to share.
ISLAM advocates vagrancy forms death toll big illusion. Drug addicts are big. Both different yet both troubled in darkness.
Some people need to tone down on the critics, she's a revert who certainly learned a great lot about Islam & preach it with her approach. And the topic focus's on female afterall. More freedom for muslimah preaching, especially to female audience. Sure, why not.
Before I was a wife and mother, I was Muslim. I had value even then. When I became a wife and mother, my worth didn’t suddenly shift and depend on that. And if I am no longer a wife or mother, I will still have purpose. Allah, the One who created me, said:“And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.” 51: 56 This is my purpose. This is what I am supposed to do with my life. However, when we talk about Muslim women, it is usually in the context of her fulfilling her “purpose” of being a wife and mother. But what does this mean for the women who do not fit into either category? Does it mean she is not fulfilling her purpose in life? Does it mean that she has no value? That she is worthless? Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) was not a birth mother. Maryam (may Allah be pleased with her) was not a wife. And Asiyah (may Allah be pleased with her) was not a birth mother and her husband was Fir’aun. Yet, these women are praised. Why? Allah says:“And Allah presents an example of those who believed: the wife of Pharaoh, when she said, “My Lord, build for me near You a house in Paradise and save me from Pharaoh and his deeds and save me from the wrongdoing people.”
And Mary, the daughter of ‘Imran, who guarded her chastity, so We blew into (her garment) through Our angel, and she believed in the words of her Lord and His scriptures and was of the devoutly obedient.” 66:11 We need look no further than the incident of slander against Aisha to see an example of her unshakeable faith. When her parents told her the rumours and they had no other words for her, she said, “I cannot but repeat the words which the father of Prophet Joseph had spoken: ‘fa-sabrun jamil’: I will bear this patiently with good grace.” And when the verses were revealed that declared her innocence, the first thing she said was, “Alhamdulilah.” She didn’t thank Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). She didn’t tell her parents: “I told you so!”While it is indeed honourable to be a wife and a mother, it is problematic to single out these roles as the honour of a woman. Once we do that, we’ve taken away her fundamental value that comes from her having faith (imân). This value that she has is independent from any role she may carry out.“Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you.” 49:13 Allah says: “Indeed, the Muslim men and Muslim women, the believing men and believing women, the obedient men and obedient women, the truthful men and truthful women, the patient men and patient women, the humble men and humble women, the charitable men and charitable women, the fasting men and fasting women,the men who guard their private parts and the women who do so, and the men who remember Allah often and the women who do so - for them Allah has prepared forgiveness and a great reward.”What’s beautiful is that these are all characteristics, not roles! And Allah says: ‘And whoever does righteous deeds, whether male or female, while being a believer- those will enter Paradise and will not be wronged, (even as much as) the speck on a date seed.” 4:124 And “Whoever does righteousness, whether male or female, while he is a believer - We will surely cause him to have a good life, and We will surely give them their reward (in the Hereafter) according to the best of what they used to do.” 16:97 So a Muslim woman is striving to please her Lord, even when fulfilling her roles as wife and mother. Her value is not placed in her servitude to her husband or her children, but to her Lord. When we talk about men, we don’t say that they were created to take care of women and that’s it. So why do we tend to focus on the same for women? We take a few hadith and the rest become irrelevant. We know the Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged men to marry virgins, but looking at his (peace be upon him) example, we see that he married women who were not virgins. He (peace be upon him) didn’t see them as worthless. When Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) explained why he married a previously married woman, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “You have done well.” (Bukhari) And he (peace be upon him) said, “The one who looks after and works for a widow and for a poor person, is like a warrior fighting for Allah’s Cause or like a person who fasts during the day and prays all the night.” (Bukhari) What if we took some hadith about men and made them the criteria to judge a man’s worth?“The best of you are those who are best to their wives, and I am the best of you to my wives.” (Tirmidhi) So what if a man doesn’t have a wife? Does that make him worthless? Does that make him the worst of men? Of course not. On what basis do you then judge him? The same way we should value the women - “Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you (who has the most taqwa).” Noble Quran Chapter 49: Verse 13
+Lisa Power
Depends on your attention span and intelligence
and how much anger and venom you have.
Lisa Power
Really?
Where does the Quran say that;
or is this your own fatwa?
+Lisa Power You must know that this is not true. In the Prophet's time there were people who joined his ranks as Muslims, but during a attack by enemy forces, they will desert to join the enemy forces to fight their fellow Muslims, to do which they will have to renounce their Muslim faith. The verse in the Quran refer to this. Any American, British or European soldier who does this is war is subject to martial law, i.e. death. It is interesting that the faith you so vehemently criticize requires me to research and think before responding to you, in peace.
+Yaseen N. Mohamed ...... killing apostates is practiced in Islamic countries, we all know that is true, end of story.
+Bruce Wayne Indeed!!! Your comment has made me feel content. Somebody needed to say that. It was over-due. And you know what, this comes from the cultural context... people need to start separating their culture from Islam. It is the culture which has formed such baseless, soul-crushing (for those women who can't conceive) jahil perceptions. A person's worth is in their characteristics. And the worth of a role is a different topic.
MashAllah very excellent lecture, may Allah reward you the most ameeen.
ALLAH INFORMS YOU TO DARKNESS DEATH SILENCE LIVE VAGRANCY YOUR IMPOVERISH. An AVERSION DARKNESS TO LIFE.
Amazing how only a few words can provide so much insight into the level of a person's maturity... or lack thereof.
Dictionary:
Deen = Religion
Haram = Forbidden
Alhamdu-lellah = thanks to God
*
deen = way of life
I am shocked by the number of attendance to this amazing lecture. Many people have missed out.
I love this lecture! Its quite funny how non Muslims will do anything but accept the truth. And I'm sorry for you because you will be heald accountable to the one true God, Allah, on the day of judgment that you heard and saw the truth but didn't accept it.
what truth are u talking?that its right to have sex with 9 year olds?that its ok to thigh them until they reach the age of 9?that means the man masturbates himsrlf with his penis between a little girls thighs?you are sick sick people.you stone your women to death.you are evil
+Lisa Power Where's your proof, to back up your unverified claims and misinformation. If you want to locate a book that promotes paedophilia, then you need to read the Talmud. So please bring the verse and the reference for your Wikipedia information.
+Whathastheworldcome2 ????????? its all it the quaran, mohammad was a paedo... muslims believe that mohammad was the perfect messenger of ur god, and what mohammad did is the perfect way of life. are you people absolutly nuts. have you people no humane morals at all. how can you think for a second, a man that could have sex with a minor is someone to be worshiped. when i die i will be judged by GOD.... the all seeing alll hearing GOD. it will not be allah, it will not be a GOD that teaches his followers to violate amd hurt his people. it will be the GOD of PURITY LOVE and PEACE. it will be the GOD that takes pity on your soul. i will pray for you... sounds to me like you need all the prayers you can get while you demon worship negitivity.
+Lisa Power +Lisa Power None of what you said is in the Quran. Some of it is in the Hadiths (check on Wikkpedia for its meaning if necessary). Addressing the accusation of paedophilism, Muhammad's first marriage at 25 yrs was to Khadija (ra) then 40. At 50, when Khadija passed away and he lost the protection of her family, he married Ayesha (ra), then 6, that offered him her family’s protection, while she continued to live with her parents. He also married, almost simultaneously, Sawda (ra) 5 years older than him, instead of a, say 18 yrs old woman. These are not the actions of a paedophile. He consummated with Ayesha when she was 9. He was carefully watched by friends and foe alike all the time and there is no record that he related with another young person.
The marriage of young girls was a common practice until the early 20th century. A Wikipedia search for the youngest mothers lists 109 and only 2 are Muslims. The rest are almost all Christians. “At the start of the nineteenth century in England, it was legal to have sex with a 10 year-old girl.” In Scotland it was 7 yrs. “Most states (in the US) codified statutory age of consent during the 19th century (as) 10 years.” Until the 1960s, 7 yrs was the legal age of marriage in Delaware.
The Canon Law compiled by Johannes Gratian allows meaningful marriage after 7 yrs. Until recently the Vatican sanctioned marriageable age for girls was 12. The Prophet Issac (pbuh) at 40 married Rebecca (ra) at 3. The Jewish laws Mishnah, Sanhedrin, Talmud and Old Testament approve a man to have intercourse with a girl any-time after her age of 3, betrothed or not, for it was one way to ‘acquire the girl.’ Joseph the Carpenter was 80 - 90 yrs when he married 12 yrs Mary, mother of Jesus (praise and peace be upon them). A few years ago in ‘Kiryat Sefer (Modi’in Illit) town in Israel a 13-year-old girl was married off. In ‘Yavne’el in Israel 12 year old Jewish girls were married off. Child marriage was the norm in Christian and Jewish society until recent times.
The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) married Ayesha 1397 yrs ago and the culture he lived in expected him to consummate that marriage when she reached puberty; otherwise it would have brought shame to Ayesha’s family of something being wrong with her. Marriage and consummation has been of public interest, even to this day in some societies. It was his marriage to young Ayesha, a highly intelligent and vibrant person that made it possible for us to have fine details of his life forming a significant part of Islamic history and knowledge. No other prophet has this advantage. An older woman of that time would not have remembered such detailed observations as Ayesha did.
Why judge an event that happened 1397 yrs ago when our grand parents or their grandparents almost always married very young.
Yaseen N. Mohamed And as french philospher Montisque said in his sixteenth book pages 245-246 "women in hot climates (such as the arabian desert) are mature at the ages of 8, 9, and 10... Non Muslims keep going back to this "point" even though science debunks them and proves to them she was a women not a girl... But they have nothing. Let alone the fact that the prophet's worst enemies at that time didn't see this as an issue which proves she was a women.
great speech by Respected Lisa Killinger,,,,,,,, salam for you sister from Pakistan...... you are inspiration for a lot of people really!!!!!!!!!!
excellent lecture, may Allah reward you the most ameeen.
Hate a big volume vacuum portfolio, the dust ritual fades in time.
Alhamdulillah..Thank you for this precious lecture :)
dust is as good as nothing.
Fantastic point! Every sincere seeker of truth should vote this comment up!
Islam need one million Lisa KIllinger. Sister may you live long enough to educate and motivate muslims.
"They (your wives) are your garment and you are a garment for them.'' Holy Quran. Islam lays great emphasis on husband and wife's relationship.A divorced woman, in Islam, has all the right to choose/not choose a partner. though it is preferred for men and women both to stay married.
Without the culture and the bagage...
This is exactly what Dr Mohamed Shahroor talked about!!!
May Allah reward her. Beautiful lecture.
DEATH IS THE DEPRAVITY OF MISCHIEVOUS WONDERING IN THE WILDERNESS.
I love this woman
May Allah Subhanna hu watallah keeps bringing new blood to this Ummah and make us all better muslims . Amin . This is a truly awesome lecture , let us learn good things from this.
lisa killinger.usa.
beautiful presentation.
thank you F. Mohammed. asalamu allaikum.
this speech is amazing
Islam will be slammed into eternal darkness. THE Devil subliminal distorts film of actual Truth.
Sister I love you. I like the way of your speech and thought. Really you are a light in the darkness where misguided to the people against Islam. I will pray Allah grant for you jannatul firdoush.
you chant to ritual death is surfacing in society. DARKNESS ILLUSION FADES AT THE END OF TIME.
By the definition of the word church, church is the people that constitute the institution. Judging its representatives is the only way to judge a church.
Thank you so much for this inspiring presentation. Indeed truth is available for everyone, but not everyone is available for hearing, living and being with the truth.
Couldn’t stop myself to watch it
So perfect
FRAGMENTS DIVIDE FADE IN TIME
Thank you Lisa. Great topic and great lecture. May Allah bless you and your family with His Mercy.
As far as verses in the Qur'an about killing, all have to do with capital punishment, self-defense or pre-emptive strikes against an aggressing enemy in a wartime situation established by the state (not individuals or rogue groups). These qualifications are revealed through context by reading & understanding the verses that come before/after and the circumstances surrounding the revelation of the verse. Now back to my question for a 3rd time: Where is the Islamic text that teaches HONOR KILLING?
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you sister for the amazing talk.
I find it hilarious but sad that people like to ignore the immense diversity of the Muslim Ummah and how regional, cultural influences can override the faith in the practice of the deen
●Thank u for ur great lecture on islam. It was beautifully presented 😊may Allah grant u Jannatul Ferdous
Respected sister God bless you. You explained very well .
Outstanding thinking
Much appreciation for her
May allah guide her the right path and bless her ❣️❣️❣️😘
like this woman so much.. thanks
Maasha Allah sister, yes no baggage in Islam.
My dear sister, I as Muslim born have not yet know too many Islamic histories you mentioned here. Mascha Allah, may Allah bless you
Masaah Allah very informative lecture may Allah reward you more blessings here in this world and the hereafter ameen
A quick note about polygamy to add; polygamy mainly serves the women, not men. We are taught, through bad example through society and people who made it the other way around, that polygamy serves only for sexual desires of man in women, but in its heart is a service to women.
You still need to be just to the other wives you marry, you still need to spend on them and their children and you still need to concern yourself about her parents, her family, and whatelse. This is burdensome to men, polygamy is mostly a service to women.
You sell it like this, I do Not See any service for woman, what service!? You are all brainwashed
I don't know, if at that time was called hijab, it was known as a veil. In Iran in persian language People call the veil rusari.
No any enforcement to accept Islam. Calling people to the right path is duty upon Muslims. However, you can select the religion you prefer but you have to take responsibility on what you selected. This is Islam
Woaw! great talk sister, may Allah grant you Paradise. Good job, keep it up.
allah death thrown out to the atmosphere.
I disagree with her on one point though. As far as I know a man does not need a permission of his first wive to take the second one. He naturally mustn't disregard her opinion and make her unhappy with his decisions, however, strictly theoretically speaking there is no source I know of that speaks for what she stated regarding that matter.
I ask all my muslim brothers & sisters not to respond to such questions for they are the product of ignorance & a heart filled with hatred. Do not bow down to such a low level of knowledge & social manners.
Salaam aleykum warahmatullah wa barakatuh.
Women are more intelligent than men when it comes to education and they can do much more for Islam if they are guided properly. SHE IS THE BEST EXAMPLE OF THAT. May Allah Kareem bless her. AMIN YA RABAL ALAMIN.
Don’t make stuff up from your mind.. on what base one gender is more intelligent than the other ? What a useless statement.
Great video. You explain the concept so well. So inspiring!
I love these western woman talk very wise.
More like western Muslim coverts, they don’t merge their culture with Islam. Shaikh hamza yusuf the best western Muslim speaker ever imo.
What I see as Pakistani the Indian culture in our roots is overriding Islam in someway.
May Allah guide us.
May Allah bless Dr Lisa.
SHALLOW THE DARK SURFACE DEATH AN ILLUSION. a ritual philosophy is a dead silent no relationship just a concoction of depravity.
She is so precise on her new belief.
Also, it's way more stressful for women these days if you look at it. If they're the child bearers, they have to raise them but yet work full-time to ease the man in paying rent etc? Doesn't seem that equal. You can take equal responsibility to taking care of children but isn't it easier if both focus on one & not try do both? So the man keeps the family protected & provides while the woman is the root tree of the family & home. You both are then providing & meeting both ends.
Because of this type of attitude I don't think many Muslim men take their women or their honor seriously. Or just because it isn't a problem for them directly, they don't want to stand up for the rights of others. So I think Islam is like many other religions where it is nice on paper but people will always take any good thing and use it with impure motivations for the worst and most oppressive outcomes possible. Not just Islam but most religions I see this.
A great woman May Allah Subhaan a hu wa Ta'ala bless her and use her services to spread the word of Islam ❤️❤️❤️❤️🍰!
MashaAllah may Allah Reward you my sister you are so good you are a true Muslim subhanAllah
very well organised and not too long . lively interaction with great confidence.
Ma Sha Allah
Some if not many arab women and girls are following misguided western way of life...ALLAH is bringing His Servants from western cultures and backgrounds to Islam and Makes them the Spokesmen and spokeswomen of His Beautiful Deen. I challenge people to show me only one arab woman who can stand and defend Islam like this wonderful western creature...
@Victortrotska ..Exactly. I'm an American, worked within Texas colleges full time for nearly twelve years. My American students ("Christian") sold-smoked weed, became pregnant, unmarried, slept with males and females, got picked up for DUI (again), cheated on tests, cheated on boyfriends and girlfriends, couldn't live sober....read the Koran, watched FOR MYSELF the actual lives and lifestyles of Muslim students, sober, focused, law abiding, faithful, never dressed like tramps, etc. I reverted.
The Bible says shave the head of the woman who does not cover her hair.
Nasser MJ This is true. Christian women must also cover.
This speech is still so relevant today.Thnak you Sister
Alhamdolillah Allah hu akbar subhanallah may Allah SWT bless this my dear sister lisa And her family and keep lisa and her family always in islam as well all us amen may Allah SWT guide all us on the straight path always amen love from India please keep it up this beautiful job
GOD BLESS YOU FOR SUCH VALUABLE SPEECH
Please don't think that you have to remain single, just find a practicing muslim man. However you must do it through Islamic means only (and these means may be found on islamqa.info) otherwise don't expect any blessing in your marriage.
May Allaah rectify the condition of our Ummah and guide us to what He loves.
Mashallah!! She is so right! Come on sisters lets spread the word
Thank you sister for that please keep pushing and explain to let them know how is Islam good for women and respect them . We need a woman like you sister
Thanks again
Allah blessing you and blessing your family
Islam allah film of depravity inequality to life.
May Allah bless you sister! It is an influential speech
ineffectual lingers in the myth of society. YOU'RE IN THE DARK AN ADVERSE RITUAL.
Fair enough. Try this one which I just uploaded: "Misinterpreted Hadith: Men, A Degree Above Women - Rasha al-Disuqi".
@Rodney James please read Qur'an first and later comment read
"Al Quran (Tafsir and by Word)
By Greentech"
please get knowledge by reading the Quran down load this app" Al Quran (Tafsir and by Word)
By Greentech " go slowly reading an ayat or sentence and read why it was revealed reasons and the senario at the time of the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him.
God willing it will help you with all the goodies in this life and the next...Amen!
Regarding her point about making a difference: If there are a thousand people in trouble and you say, "How many can I save by myself?"
Think like this: If you can only save one, you make a difference to that one.
Then what is your understanding of what Allah says in the verse in question?
Thank you sister for sharing this information with others peace be with you
Great wisdom. True knowledge of islam.allah bless you every moment
I AM VERY VERY PROUD OF ISLAM.
SubhanAllah, what an educated knowledgeable young lady. As a convert she has learnt a lot about Islam. Just one point to her: You mentioned about hijab, yet you are not covering hair and wearing a proper Hijab. Hope you can make that change. /Salaam/peace/A convert to Islam.
All very sincere and valid questions.
1) Men are permitted to "lightly strike" with absolutely NO harm and NO mark. "Beat" is a mistranslation. And this is a last resort. Muhammad never "beat" his wives, much less even "struck" them.
2) The other wives must consent to it. This practice is the exception not the rule. It's a solution to women not being able to find men to marry because they naturally outnumber men in society or due to war.
3) No, this is a CULTURAL practice not a religious one.
Wow! I really admire her guts. She has really inspired me. I agree with her in some way that it is not just the hijab that oppresses a woman, I think it is the way people associates Islam with the culture. We need to look up to women like her in western society
The key to my last post is the bread winner, in understanding the answer to your question. One must look into all the texts as a whole, not just one verse & make it absolute. I hope that helps :p
I promise you sister I'll do the best that I can to explain to my sisters I know I mean my friends from united states or any where how Islam is good for them. I have many sisters and brothers need's to be know about our religion .
Thank you soooooooo much for that sister
Allah blessing you
I shared this video with my interfaith facebook page - I have been longing to hear from women that follow islam and their point of view - thank you
First: Why is it in the Qur'an, husbands are entitled to physically harm their wives?
Second: Why is men entitled to four wives yet women are expected to be virgins and loyal to one husband?
Question time.
Do you agree, women's place is in the house to serve the husband ?
Typically misguided questions, but I’ll try. Thanks. No Muslim husband that I know from many community members has harmed his wife with a religious okay. Allah says both genders are spiritually equal but different, and we Muslim women, (majority), are fine with the Divine recommendation that our husband takes care of us, and vice versa, and that if, God forbid, I ever did some awful thing such as cheating, flirting, or adultery, Astaghfirullah-(common among many women these days)-I’d have had no issue with my leader-spouse reprimanding me or lightly touching my hand to remind me of marital protocols. But that never happened, Alhumdullilah. And Islamic guidelines are practical, not just voice-based. Average Muslim man does not have more than one wife at a time-most don’t even marry a second time because Muslim men are committed to their wives and do not cheat on their wives as most people in other cultures tend to do (and hide). That’s because we have accountability in front of the One God Almighty whom we call Allah, (to whom Jesus prayed in the wilderness, Alaha). And as a smart Welsh imam once noted, there’s nothing in our Quran that tells women that they should stay in the kitchen all day and cook and clean for their husbands. My own dad often cooked meals and snacks for his beloved wife, my mom. And my husband often took my children to school or met with their teachers -and took responsibility for helping educate our children.
As the sister speaker says, some Muslims choose the cultural baggage over the actual teachings of Quran. I tend to enjoy cooking and taking care of family when I could -and that was a blessing from our culture, and still tried to follow as many Islamic teachings as I could.
As the sister says, women being allowed to participate in the politics and discussion 1400 years ago-women having property rights 1400 years ago -these are natural parts of our Shariah, (that “fiery law” prophesied in Isaiah -about those who’d praise God “with a new song” -call to prayer. Women in Islam were treated like queens and princesses by their doting husbands that many modern women do not know how to accept or appreciate. And freeing slaves is an atonement in Islam. Quran says it is better to marry a believing slave woman than a woman who denies God’s Oneness, and does wicked deeds, “though she may allure you.”
How many women of today refuse to accept their husband’s leadership in the family, and how many women who despise men treat men like slaves and inferior creatures, taking away men’s masculinity. In Islam, we choose to honor our husband or wife -as much as possible and not let the tides of aggressive cultures take away from their innate masculinity or femininity. No woman needs to be like a man to feel confident in who she is, nor does any man need to feel like a woman to feel nurturing or kind when he chooses to be for the sake of Allah. 🌴
Besides, the four wives allowance is only if a man is able to treat all four with equity, love, finances, and respect. If a Muslim woman chooses to work in her profession, she gets to spend her money however she chooses, while being blessed and protected by her husband’s hard work. Besides, in the Bible, people like Solomon were said to have 700 wives and concubines Astaghfirullah. That’s not the Prophet Soleiman that we know. Abijah in Bible was said to have 14 wives and concubines and lovers and David in the Bible was a stalker of a nude woman bathing--such things are not found in Quran or Islam, contrary to the phobic people’s opinions.
after hearing her talk I am inspire to lean more and more! I am a college student in NYC does anybody has the experience of taking a class about religion, or islam in specific? I will like to do the but my school does not offer it.
Hi, Do you still have any question?
Sister Lisa I have read many books big and small and watched videos on the topic in continuation to make some comparision. You talk is very good in terms of compact slow paced discussion presentation except towards the end.
It will be wonderful if you can get some one to produce a new video in 10-12 minutes.
1.Cut out the front intro and reduce some input from the end namely the
Aslamia
2. research project summarized in few words
3. use red background under white and gold writing to enhance the contrast and greater focus
tie up some loose ends .
Re-title the video a bit crispier if can
It will do great service to Muslims and non - Muslims.
Your confident pose sincerity and non-apologitic stance come through positively.
Most of them were NOT punished, butwere transferred to remote parishes without warning the congregations; then perped on the kids there for decades, not only in the U.S but in canada, europe, africa, etc.The Church turned a deaf ear and ignored the prblm. Many pediphile priests died before convicted, or were not prosecuted due the the statute of limitations. I was told by my priest, when i was catholic, in 2002, that these priests were given 'office jobs' away from kids, as' punishment'
By the way, never identify church as the people that represent it. You should never judge it by its people. Because someone did something wrong, doesn't mean that church is wrong...
MasaAllah i swatch this this with my mother and die cry and i was a shamed because we call yourself believers but we know nothing of this Deen and treath out sisters,mothers and womens like garbage because culturele things.may Allah subhana wa'talla forgive me and enlight me...i need this and more so i can be beter humaan,moslim and brother to my mother,sisters and women in general .may Allah azza wa'zall grant you janaat...
Excellent analysis, Allah bless you my sister, people's like you raising your voice for truth some day world realize that Islam is the only way of life
Let the disbelievers hate and burn in their own anger, the guidance comes from Allah to those He wills
Hijab/Jilbab is mentioned in Bible and even in Rig Veda
To your dissapointment, not only I am greek, but I used to be a christian orthodox as well ... I know alot more than you do and it is what you are talking about that showed me the way to move away from religion ... any religion ... and I thank them for that ... Υποκριτές και άθλιοι are the words that do justice to the greek orthodox church patriarchs ...
I have to say I have been studying and learning a lot about Islam lately. I used to know nothing about Islam and used to be the afraid type of person she is talking about. I think the message of Islam is good. I think I can approach Muslim girls I see at school and not be so afraid that they will assume I don't like them, or that they will think I am immodest because I don't cover my hair and wear short sleeve shirts when it is hot.
Dr. Lisa says women weren’t allowed to own property before Islam. But didn’t prophet Muhammad marry a widow who was a businesswoman? Or business women in pre Islam Arab didn’t own property ?
She was a widow, do research first and you become a muslim.
As for lightly striking the wife, it is not with the hand. But miswak(stick used for brushing teeth) so if with a wife disobeys the husband on a matter, then at first he is supposed to stop talking to her, if this doesn't help, then even he's not supposed to strike, but separate the beds and even if she doesn't listen, then is to lightly strike as a final warning before parting or divorcing.
I'd recommend this video: /watch?v=K1FYvtjH5uM
Also, you could read hadith of the Prophet(SAW).
Calling me a bully isn't a valid argument. I've studied religion for the last twenty years, I've read both the Quran and the Bible repeatedly first when I was 13, I've also read the Book of Mormon and the Bhagavad Gita and I learned how each of these books came to exist, something most believers fail to do. I read the Quran in English, I've heard that some things are lost in translation, you'd think the creator of the universe would choose a language more easily disseminated hu.h
thank you very much to understand the Islam in right way.
Speech with feelings and emotions affect me..
SMILE !!!! very positive comment
The best example of IQRA, what an amazing Enlighted Lady, Mashallah how blessed you are...PEACE
Few questions only. How can a man (husband) be entitled to "lightly strike" his wife? What about the impact to a woman? What about psychological damage?
Where is the authentic Islamic text that teaches HONOR KILLINGS?
That's critical thought! Congratulations!
