An inside look at Islamic extremism | Mubin Shaikh
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 พ.ย. 2016
- Mubin Shaikh was “bit by the jihadi bug” when he was 19. Born and raised in Canada, he traveled to Pakistan to study Islam - and there found himself captivated by a group of extremists who encouraged him to embrace a violent and skewed interpretation of the religion. In his talk, Shaikh shares the story of how he was de-radicalized, and eventually became an undercover counterterrorism operative for the CIA.

@@randomuser78 Ah yes. "GOOD teaching" and "BAD teaching". What an objective argument!
There are 2 options: either the quran legitimizes violence, or the quran is prone to ambiguous interpretations that MIGHT lead to violence. In either case, it is frightening.
Andrea B The human brain is what is frightening. I do understand what you mean but even serial killers have "reasons", for must are they petty and not good enough, but they still have their reasons and a need to legitimize their wickedness, but it only shows how frightening we human beings can get, and that most violence isnt justified from outside sources, but rather manipulated and picked to be inline with the darkness thats already in your heart.

@shahid hamid Because you refuse to admit he is right.
If he went to India there are other holy men who teach peacefully. Not all are walking around with AK47s. Just the Islamic jihadists in Pakistan. India is a diverse religious place and he could have sought out Hindus, Buddhists, Zoroastrians etc. and discussed without fear religion with them. Doubt if he could in Pakistan. Allah or nothing!
I am from India and i am a catholic Christian. Here we are living in harmony. We are having friends from different religion.
May be while he reached Pakistan he got into extremism.
Shibin Mathew me as well
Am from India, even in India he would have come to contact some maulanas who take advantage of secularism in India and radicalize islam, Islam today is a curse not only to India but to the entire world, their sick and narrow thinking is cancer , the funny part is the biggest preachers have two faces, one face lives with a family who does not follow the islam they preach, their kids study in finest colleges in Europe or America , the other face is radical Islamist but they seek illetrate and vulnerable preys who they can brainwash and do jehad to spread islam as their ultimate goal is to kill all non muslims and do not rest till then
@@mahavirrawat6286 I was a muslim who is now an atheist and I have to say that the quran is just very, very prone to misinterpretation (or that it encourages extremism). I have many known muslim people and all of them are pretty cool, even my parents allowed me to become an atheist.
First time I heard a true Muslim who is fortunately now not a Muslim but human . Impressive,great 👍
Nice Takfir 😂
Can't be both, has to pick one. Oh, forgot, if he quits Islam, and lets everyone know, a his religion says he must be killed. And they're not joking.

Such a great clarification, and applicable to many groups in America.

coming here after arguing with a muslim, all I can say is, Islam is taking their fight to europe.
I really would like to appreciate your courage for getting out of that place and sharing your experiences, accepting your mistakes and talk openly. More power to you.
Why islamic countries like Pakistan do not do anything about extrimism? They know about their schools, their training camps, their leaders. Yet they sit and look at them grow.
That's there proxy war strategy, they use the terrorist ORGS against Indian army in Kashmir they have lost 4 wars face to face to India so this is thier strategy now ....to destabilise the Kashmir valley and manipulate the Kashmiri youth against thier own country
Same thing they are doing and did to Afghanistan. All the extremists from Afghansitan were arrested and some went to Pakistan where they gathered support and funding to fight the goverment in afg.
The Fact is they are a part of it ..!!!
Yea no… they blind children give them no knowledge and thinking capabilities
I read quran without knowing the meaning for years. Every village child in a Muslim country has this story. Qurans with meaning are rare in villages.
The koran is a stone age man-made book of fables and stupidity. islam is a stone age death cult.
Then us should try urself, research think and choose, watch the right persons who will tell the truth, right things....u should remove the bad thoughts, don't listen to misguiding idiot persons, and be wise yourself...Keep faith in your GOD and find the right path , he will help you surely....

The only thing required; "there's no ultimate truth". No ultimate book. There are other truths in the world. Be rational. Use your mind. Be agnostic!
so live in fear what might happen to me after I die?
Agnosticism is a cowards ideology. Having no ultimate truth makes a world where nothing is right or wrong. Is the rape, torture, and dismemberment of a 3 year old girl wrong? In a world of subjective truth who knows? You? Me? The government? No, there is an ultimate truth and a truth giver, our God, lord, and king Jesus Christ. The one who created everything and made us in His image, the image that detests evil when it is done to others and ourselves. No one likes being lied to or stolen from and that is the image of God in everyone that makes us feel so indignant when we are wronged.

I would agree there. But the fundamentalists like to make this life Hell and that is a greater problem. To make the most of life you have to be happy and part of that is not making others miserable.
@Mohammad Faizan ok ; then worry about people who pick up weapons in the name of jihad while quran clearly states that jihad is the battle with your inner shaitan. Worry about the people who misinterpret the sayings of prophet mohammed(pbuh).
Vedas never prohibited idol worship !!!!! although it is the lowest form of worship.
We never took rama or krishna as gods they are "avatars" that's why vaishnavaism(worshippers of lord vishnu) and rudraism(worshippers of lord shiva) exist as supreme sects. The holy trinity is the greatest and symbolises the entities(in space) which led to formation of the earth.
Yes we worship a human ,human like me, human like you, HUMAN LIKE PROPHET MOHAMMED(pbuh)
You would have known that there's nothing wrong in polythiesm if you would have realised that we worship books, nature ,animals etc.(we happen to give them names) each of whom have more contribution towards our existence than your prophet mohammed(pbuh) or my ram.
What would your god do if I don't believe in Islam ??send me to hell?? I am ready but would not accept Islam.
What happens to you if you don't belive in my god?? Nothing , just keep doing good deeds and good karma.
IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE INTERPRETATION BROTHER.
Also mention the signs around you along with a hint of logic.
72 virgins for real muslims in heaven haha
Notice how he’s says an extremist is “once they accept violence in a public place” Really, that’s all? Not the other intolerant beliefs Islam teaches and hating the infidel?
Wym islam is all about tolerance
@@Trilliman707 Oh really now?😂
How about apostacy? What about homosexuality?
@@anutpalgogoi9741 first of differentiate the difference between homosexualuty beastitly necrophelia and incest than we can talk oh BTW animals does that to
@@anutpalgogoi9741 huh? A man literally came to the prophet pbuh and said he wanted to leave islam and the prophet pbuh said okay bye. People aren’t killed over leaving islam they’re killed over treason same as any country in the world today.
I like how this man literally said that a sheikh explaining the verses is what got him out of extremism. Just as those new members like him, without any further research, read those verses, got told what it meant and formed their opinions based on just that, you guys are doing the same. It's really ironic.
What is often ignored is that those verses talk about wars, wars which were way more justified than our "morally good countries" fight today, like the enemies breaking of the constitution of Medina(A document which you can look up, notice how nice it is to non-muslims btw.). Ontop of that, 8:61 says: "If the enemies is inclined towards peace, make peace with that.". Something which countries of today don't do. You can see in the letters of Muhammad(Which you can look up) that he stayed true to this historically (Submitting in the letter of Heraclius meant to god btw, not to Muhammad.). Ontop of that, in verses like 4:89, which, once again, was revealed during war, you can see just how many conditions had to be met before the killing. Something which countries of today don't do.
Please don't take what you read and hear for granted, it divides us much more than it needs to, there are nearly 2 billion muslims, we need to get to know one another.
As for homosexuality, nowhere in the quran does it tell us how to, or even if we should punish it. It does condemn it. The reason the west accepted it is because "Well, it does not seem to harm others.", but we don't know if it does. For example, this *may* be how it can harm others: Sexual orientation in identical twins can differ, so sexual orientation can be influenced. By accepting and promoting homosexuality we might influence the sexual orientation of other people. We also know that STDs are more common in homosexuals, likely due to anal sex(which is forbidden even for straight people in Islam). If these diseases do enough harm, it could outweigh the happiness people get from homosexual sex. And that is just 1 way it *could* cause more suffering than happiness. So we can't say that Islam is wrong for condemning it. (I'm not saying that we know condemning it is right either btw.)
Once again, please don't take what you read and hear for granted. Just because politics says something is good, doesn't mean that we're certain that it is good at all.Something which countries of today don't do.
Sir. Thank you for sharing it.
How to be extremists?
Believing so much into one political idea and religion.
That beard Is VERY extreme!
Why does this video have only 27402 views? I mean this video can change people....youtube has to do something getting the write word out will change the world.
People aren't the problem. People are born people. Then they put that book in they're hands, and the horror starts.
Because its bull crap. Won't acknowledge that Islam is the only religion who's adherents shout verses from they're holy book as they murder innocents. Until Muslims recognize that it can't be fixed. Religion of peace my ass.
bcos they hate the truth, they only love when somene vonvert
Yo where are those guys who preach that it is a religion of "piece"😂😂
Bro actually Sufism is also part of Islam but nowadays there is no one who follows Sufism
Because jihad sounds more nice to them😂😂
Sufism is just like bhakta tradition in Hinduism in which a devotees searches for a deep relationship with God rather than heaven and 72 hoors😂
Rightly piece, not peace
Ultimately, it boils down to the unfortunate fact that without Islam the world would be more peaceful. This much for the great religion.
❤❤❤❤
The mere mention of India scared me. India being neighbor to Pakistan or being a place of many muslims doesn't have anything to do with what he was mentioning. India is not a place for Islamic extremists. People of every religion on the globe coexist peacefully and moreover people of all religions (including muslims) take up high positions like judges and even politicians. India is for peace. The End.
Siddharth, those are nice aspirations... But not sure why you seem to be saying this is reality in India today. Do you read the news? Sadly, There is PLENTY of religious violence in India and has been for hundreds, even thousand of years.
Hindu extremists have attacked churches and mosques. They have persecuted Indians who decide to become followers of Jesus instead of Hinduism.
I do hope that India becomes such a place as you stated, but a simple reading of the news shows that it is not yet a full reality.
@@scottatutube1 ohhh plz stfu and dont teach about peace
@@anshulthakur6215 You say "STFU", - why are you so intolerant? I'm civil and willing to listen to your thoughts, why can't you be respectful of other fellow human beings and listen as well? And if you don't want to listen to others, then you probably should remain silent. If you don't like listening to people who think differently than you, then stay out of the conversations.
@@scottatutube1 you have the guts to talk about that but not the the forceful conversion of Hindus in india for like about thousand years? ? You are a hypocrite. Remember that bharat always stood for- peace. And sanatana dharma is not a religion. That is western concept not indian. If we started talking about the massacre of Hindus in india your mouth would be shut. I am not saying any kind of religious extremism is good but don't target one grp. What about Kashmiri pandits? Thousands of Hindus forcefully converted or killed? Our temples destroyed, our universities set on fire? They tried to finish our culture! For years invaders took benefit of our friendliness. If you know so much india about definitely you know this also.
Don't comment on something you have zero knowledge about.

Extremism is not a problem if your core beliefs are truly non-violent
I really liked that one...changed my perspective...thnx
When u r brought up with out knowing what's right and wrong from childhood you tend to believe that violence is justified
extremist meaning itself has violence in it....if you are not violent or dont advocate violent behavior than you are not an extremist...believer and extremist are two separate thing which you mixed
So how bout Jainism

I respect that you showed up and speak about your story, The extremists doesn’t know that they harm the Islamic religion by their acts and tarnish its reputation. God, who we believe that he is the most merciful and the most compassionate, does not accept that we acts and do actions in his name and we think that we are doing it for God’s sake, while that actions in the same time its make others scare , feel uncomfortable or guides them to hate Islam,
And please you have to stop gathering in groups and shouting Takbeeer takbeeer WTH is going on?! . Who told you that Muslims have to gather and shout takbeer takbeer using God’s name to prove something or get self benefits ? If you want to say god is the greatest You can say Allahw akbar in your heart or in your normal sound ! why you are shouting and bothering others?! . There is no need for these scenes that make People hate us and hate hearing allah Akbar , especially People of the book. Actually I do not live in a European or any western country, but I have all respect for them, so you have to respect that they welcome you and their countries was for you the Safe place and became home so keep it safe and please do not be Parrots, stop repeating of what you have been taught and indoctrinated keep researching and don’t accept to be forced to do things.
This is from Quran and God saying to prophet Mohammed that do not join any groups and do not do ones and you don’t belong to them , Muslims have to be normal don’t make groups .
Indeed, those who have divided their religion and become sects - you, [O Muḥammad], are not [associated] with them in anything. Their affair is only [left] to Allah; then He will inform them about what they used to do.

@Numair Khan did you hear the story of that gentleman and what he was talking about ? I’m not talking about dawah good luck with it if you would do it as same as our prophet did, by making people amazed how merciful ,Tolerance, cooperation, generosity and respectful you are , and going to make people love Islam by your behavior, by helping everyone by being truthful, Be trustworthy and keep smiling to others as sadaqa, sharing food and accepting Food from People of the book , try to be the best example as a person in your society.. you have to be careful dear that your are the worst when you are mixing up the terror acts and establishing suspicious gatherings with Dawah and whoever is going to say this is wrong your are going to call him that he water down the deen !!
@Numair Khan I am very happy to see your humility and respect in this response, I also apologize to you if I wasn’t good at explaining my point in my first comment
That's how it should be interpreted, we all know extremists are everywhere but these wild people do anything and destroy the name of your religion, which in turn create doubt in the mind of people about innocent and good muslims....It is your community ,you have the blessings of your God to remove such things from the your society....No doubt whichever religion we follow but we should know how to think and have the ability to differentiate between right and wrong...
What about people with older books?
Everyone like to claim superiority in their own way. Everyone needs to evolve. And, the evolution of people as a group leads to the evolution of social paradigms and most significantly religion.
I sometimes feel pity for Muslims. I understand that it is a not a great choice of word. Perhaps most honest to my true feelings. I have been a lifelong Atheist and I have come to appreciate a lot of good people from any and all religious background. But, I think it is open truth that religion has indeed been a source of petty childish conflict. In the recent past if not much farther we have seen that a lot of violence perpetrated was in the name of Islam. While it is not ideal or any more worse than the current perspective, emergence of similar violence from other religious groups is only natural although seemingly undesirable. If they feel threatened and have started preparing or building an aggressive front, muslims will to start the talk by self contemplating on the history and present reality of Islam in India.
Preaching and practicing peace are not diametrically opposite ideas and perhaps the people of your book can start with that.
The lesson: Not everyone is like him. And certain religion is associated with extremism and terrorism.
Prevention is always better than cure.
Islam should change the concepts of God, humans and heaven.
FIRST, God is not someone up there called by only one name Allah and is only for 'believers' but he is the universal, infinite soul of super-intelligent , superconsciousness everywhere within his creation from which everything emanated from billions of years ago and will one day the universe will dissolve back into this superconsciousness. Think of black holes in the universe where galaxies and stars get sucked into nothingness gradually. God is eternal. He is also within each and every one of us in the core or 'nucleus' of our individual consciousness or soul, waiting to be awakened within. God is not a wrathful, angry punisher but a pure lover who loves all his souls unconditionally. He is absolute truth and pure all-inclusive, immanent love.
SECOND, we are not this body but we are actually individual, intelligent consciousness or souls who take on different bodies to experience the temporariness of matter and ultimately realize the permanence of merging our consciousness with the superconsciousness. . We are also eternal as souls. When clothed in a material body, we have EGO which is actually an extension of matter. Matter is made of atoms and molecules that cling to each other giving rise to the 'I' ness and 'mine' ness in us. Ego produces anger, greed, lust, avariciousness, stealing, grabbing, not-sharing, hatred etc. All scriptures tell man to overcome one's ego to see the spiritual in us and around us. 'Kill the non-believer' verses should not be interpreted literally but metaphorically to mean kill your ego to see the true spiritual self and the true spiritual, universal God. Kill your ego at the 'altar of God'. We are limited by our material senses to comprehend the infinite and hence man will naturally have different concepts of the infinite. Hence it is natural to have many beliefs. We each need to seek him within to comprehend the infinite, not by killing 'non-believers' but by seeking him within each and everyone of us.
THIRD, there is no heaven or hell. There is only heavenly states or hellish states of mind. Heaven and hell are actually on earth by what we humans make of our lives and the lives of all others by loving everyone and all of his creation in sharing the abundance given by him.
Think universal. Not narrow and parochial.
First great presentation by the Ted talk speaker. Keep up the good work! As Muslims and everyone else as well we should support our governments where ever it is that we stay. Show them respect as they have given us respect to live peacefully together. Don't protest in a way to disrupt day to day activities, do it on the side peacefully without bothering others. It's not easy running a country or government so chill out and if you have an issue go get a job and pay your taxes, just look at how hard it is running a family or the place you work at. Imagine how difficult it must be for a leader and the board to get things done to keep the economy and country in a good state.
Second Sir Henry let's meet and talk one day, seven 032201885, it's a USA number I'm in Portugal for now but will answer your call or text.

You shouldn't say this is "Islamic" extremism. Extremist are the people who learn their religion not knowing anything of their own faith, no matter what the religion. It is a shame for those Islamic institutes who can't treat a child like a child and a person like a person.😔
Because the dont study the root of islam there of five pillars in islam the first is faith many people dont even pass through the first pillar
Thank you for your education. It was incredibly enlightening.
My Journey from Muslim to Murtad
I love this dude
This video needs more views given the grave situation in the Middle East today.
Thanks
According to Muslim Canon Law the world is divided into two camps, Dar-ul-Islam (abode of Islam) and Dar- ul-Harb (abode of war). A country is Dar-ul-Islam when it is ruled by Muslims. A country is Dar-ul-Harb when Muslims only reside in it but are not rulers of it. That being the Canon Law of the Muslims, India cannot be the common motherland of the Hindus and the Musalmans. It can be the land of the Musalmans-but it cannot be the land of the ‘Hindus and the Musalmans living as equals’. Further, it can be the land of the Musalmans only when it is governed by the Muslims. The moment the land becomes subject to the authority of a non-Muslim power, it ceases to be the land of the Muslims. Instead of being Dar-ul-Islam, it becomes Dar-ul-Harb. It must not be supposed that this view is only of academic interest. For, it is capable of becoming an active force capable of influencing the conduct of the Muslims. It did greatly influence the conduct of the Muslims when the British occupied India. The British occupation raised no qualms in the minds of the Hindus. But so far as the Muslims were concerned, it at once raised the question whether India was any longer a suitable place of residence for Muslims. A discussion was started in the Muslim community, which Dr Titus says lasted for half a century, as to whether India was Dar-ul-Harb or Dar-ul-Islam. (p. 294). He then points out another injunction, Jihad (crusade), by which it becomes ‘incumbent on a Muslim ruler to extend the rule of Islam until the whole world shall have been brought under its sway’. ‘Technically, it is the duty of the Muslim ruler, who is capable of doing so, to transform Dar-ul-Harb into Dar- ul-Islam. There are instances showing that they have not hesitated to proclaim Jihad. The curious may examine the history of the Mutiny of 1857 and if he does, he will find that, in part, at any rate, it was really a Jihad proclaimed by the Muslims against the British, and that the Mutiny, so far as the Muslims were concerned, was a recrudescence of revolt which had been fostered by Sayyed Ahmad who preached to the Musalmans for several decades that owing to the occupation of India by the British the country had become a Dar-ul-Harb. The Mutiny was an attempt by the Muslims to reconvert India into a Dar-ul-Islam. Not only can they proclaim Jihad but they can call the aid of a foreign Muslim power to make Jihad a success, or if the foreign Muslim power intends to proclaim a Jihad, help that power in making its endeavour a success (pp. 295-296). He then draws attention to the third tenet ‘that Islam does not recognise territorial affinities’. This background analysis will come handy when we analyse the happenings in 2019-20. Suffice to say that hardly any Indian intellectual analysed Islam with the objectivity that Dr Ambedkar did. He was critical of Hinduism as well, but his sharpest analysis was reserved for Islam. He could see the imperialistic and irrational side of Islam without a hint of political correctness, unlike those in the Congress, including Mahatma Gandhi.

Thank you 33million+ gods i am sooo luck to b born in INDIA.
how dum r stupid i may b atleast I'm not that idiot not to see or appreciate our colourful culture,wisdom of ages ,saints and sages who walkupon this geography, ur tolerance ...... U r really a mother

There are no 33 million gods there’s one god paramatma or Param Brahman and he takes many forms. Many gods sounds like everyone fights with each other no. Hinduism is not polytheism it’s polymorphism
Dont spit wrong information there are no 33 million gods thats a scriptural corruption.
Devas= higher beings
There are 33 koti(type) of devas
There only one god that is brahman all other gods are him you are him this place is him
these comments are like salvaging through the fallout
Human beings of all religions, have a conscience and an ability to empathize with our fellow human beings, even when it means, going against our tribal loyalties, and caring about those who we are told should be our enemies. As A Christian I have been deeply horrified by some of things Christians have done and i could never support them. . God bless you we need more people who connect with each other as human beings first, because that's what we ultimately are. Extreme Islamist ideology can be very dangerous because it dehumanizes the "other" but this also happens just as much with racism, and extreme nationalism. All these things are evil. One humanity.
Canada guys.. Alarming time for you.
This is how we should approach religion
cheers for sharing bro eye opening testimony and education :)
Point is , one can be a muslim as well as humane , Or a muslim but inhumane.
Choice is yours.
Wrong interpretation without context of quranic verses can drive u on wrong path. Example - salafists
Right interpretation with context and rightful guidance from right scholar can drive u on path of heaven.
I heard from my shia muslim friend who told me about how quran can be misquoted to radicalise someone.
Reading this, I am really ashamed that I've misinterpreted Qur'an where it's written that polytheists are worse and kill them wherever you find them... It would be really great if you give me the correct interpretation
i think, the main problem of common muslims and including most of their Quranic scholars, are too much "legalistic," (fiqh oriented), as if ayatollah (god guidance) is only one: al Quran (holy scripture). factually, God him self, in very first revelation to Muhammad, is not asking Muhammad to study (iqra) the holy Quran (cos the kitab doesn't exist at that day), instead He command Muhammad to study (iqra) other ayatullah, we called as ayat Kauniyah (universe and all of His Creations in it). That why in serious and encyclopedic Islamic traditional school, we always taught that beside al Quran, there is another god guidance (ayatullah) called ayat kauniyah (the universe and all god creation in it). and for qur'anic scholars, we also know --from al Quran it self, there are two others god guidance (ayatullah), that we as muslims should seek for God Guidances: called as ayat insaniyah (human being) and ayat tarikhiyyah (human history).
if common muslims and it scholars, uses all 4 God Guidance in balanced ways, we will not always fall into legalistic point of view when we talking or examining Islam point of view about woman/feminism, politics, evolution, LGBTQ issues, democracy, secularism, separation between religion and state. etc. for me, if sociology, political science, statistics, history on the rise and fall of civilizations/countries (as interpreters of ayat kauniyah and ayat tarikhiyyah) comes to the conclusion that democracy with separation between religion and state, is the best political system in the world for advancement human civilizations, then all Muslims should choose democracy with separation between religion and state, as preferable political system to practice in all Muslims majority countries.
also if expert on biology, doctors, psychiatry, etc (as interpreter of ayat kauniyah and ayat insaniyah) , said that beside man and woman (as gender), we also has intersex, hemaprodyte, woman with more testosterones, man with more X chromosome, etc, then all Muslims should choose to agree that god him self gave us guidance / ayat that beside man and woman as gender, there also another genders/pronouns that we should cherish, protect, and respect (cos if we don't respect others God Creations, are similarly with we don't respect our God as their Creator).
if we stubborn, only picks, one ayatullah, we called al Quran (holy scripture/ayat Qauliyah), as the one and only god guidance to follow, then muslims and it scholars, will always fall upon into legalistic point of view (fiqh oriented) when we examining what is islamic point view on everything under the sky. wahabbiyah, isis, al Qaida, etc are trapped in this narrow point of view about Islam and its believe. of course, for responsible and encyclopedic islamic teaching, all those narrow point views on Islam are wrong (at least incomplete), misguided, and disrespecting God.
umar bin khattab, as on of few sahabah (closed friend of Prophet), several times choose to disregarding some textual issues stated clearly in al Quran, and pick other decision after he choosed as Muhammad successor, as leader (khalifah/amir), if there are more fairer and more justice way (socially) on making decision as Amir/Leader, rather than choose from what already state very clear in al Quran. he always choose more fairer and more justice, even others sahabah question his decision. and as we know it, umar bin khattab is one of several sahabah (closed friend of Prophet) that guaranteed (informed) by the Prophet that he is going to heaven. his way of leadership decision, was a hard evidence that the closest friend to Muhammad, also not only consider holy scripture (ayat Qauliyah), but also social aspect, fairness, and justice (ayat kauniyah), when he making decision as a leader.
nobody in umar bin khattab time, dare to called umar bin khattab as heretic/bid'ah, kuffar, or infidel. but in modern era, several of loud muslims, loud muslim scholars, and most of jihadist will immediately call us heretic/bid'ah, kuffar, or infidel if we also uses 3 other God Guidances beside ayat Qauliyah, when we speak, analyze, examining islamic point of view on everything under the sun. how strange is it, if we following completes God Guidance's, then be called as infidel, kuffar, or bid'ah. legalistic approach (fiqh oriented) on Islam has bad impact on advancement of Islamic civilization, and has backward effect on development of its peoples: the Muslims. but yes, in Islamic jurisprudence (ushul fiqh), we also has similar concept with Umar way, but unfortunately has more narrowed approach and clearly far from sufficient to be implemented in modern era, we call them: maslahah mursalah (public good principle) and maqashid syariah (ratio legal over legal specific).
if muslims also incorporate social science, biology, technology, history, political science, psychology, etc (as part of rightful interpreter all of God Guidancs/ayatullah), many problem we faced today in many part of Muslim countries, will be addressed in responsible way. Muhammad him self, in his own word (Hadits Bukhari Collection no 6015), muslims should follow person with specific expertise on handling matter, so let political scientist handle political matter, health matter should handle by doctors, etc. do not let everything under authority of quranic expert. in general, muslim should treat expert on other ayatullah (scientist as rightful interpreter whole universe and all of His Creations in it, as rightful interpreter human being behavior and it history) equal to expert on holy scripture (al quran). Furthermore, on all wide range of social issues, every new founding/understanding as result from responsible research by scientist, should supersede (abrogate) any old interpretation from holy scripture, cos all of every new founding/understanding as result from responsible research by scientist, are also rightful interpreter of God Guidance (ayatullah). falling to do so, should be interpreted as a disqualified argument/opinion.
Many argument/opinion base on fiqh (islamic legal specific), kalam (theology) and falsafah (philosophy), factually in most areas are quite obsolete for addressing social, economic, and political problem in modern era, cos most of them are derived only from ayat Qauliyah (Quranic centric), which is an incomplete way to sorting our problem in modern era. Most of old argument/opinion already supersede/abrogated by new founding/understanding as result from responsible research by scientist. Muslims should back to the complete of God Guidance in balance way on solving problem in Muslims world, not only using holy scripture as final say. and stop kuffar/infidel calling game, cos that game from a complete, genuine, and responsible interpretation of 4 God Guidances, is simply un islamic.
and, as an open end conclusion, there is a deeper question: why common muslims and its scholars dare to disregarding 3 other God Guidances? why muslims and its scholars become legalistic (only focus on 1 ayatullah / 1 God Gudance (ayat Qauliyah) called alquran, as if salvation of a civilization fate can be and must be depend on 1 cause only? as brief answer is: corruption and abuse of power by people in high power, it cronies, and big business that closed to muslim countries rulers. all of them, almost single handedly creates and propagate common muslims and its scholars into disregarding 3 other God Guidances.
peoples in power, it cronies, and big business that closed to muslim countries rulers push and push relentlessly to narrow interpretation on morals and public interest thru perverted interpretation on the holy scripture. even, they dare to appoint unqualified islamic scholar as qadi for them to uses as fatwa producers in favors to their vested interest. since then, islamic civilization goes down spiral into inevitable decline from it's greatness. many fatwa produced in their regime will makes serious, genuine, and responsible islamic scholar scratching their head and shocked. fatwa on mihnah policy, etc, is among of perverted interpretation on holy scripture. it lead to tradition/repetition on using narrow interpretation islamic law for beating and punishing dissent and discontent on social injustice in islamic society.
furthermore, it lead islamic society to become close minded, anti science, and trapped in textual approach tradition on just 1 god guidance called al quran (ayat Qauliyah) only, with narrow and more narrow interpretation. common muslim today and it scholar today are the real victims of their legacy. lets wake them up, by spreading the real genuine of God Guidances and it's rightful interpreters. amen.
Thank you for this. Wish more people, Muslims and non-Muslims alike would read this. Culture and religion are not excuses for violence and oppression, plus it contradicts the true teachings of Islam as a whole
Hail odin the allfather.
I felt the same way in September
I have my doubts about the picture at 2:59. I am 110% sure that it's not clicked on Indian soil.
Lol watch again Actually He said it's in pakistan
He's an apostate now.
Who, Mubin Shaikh? I don't know where you got that from because he is still Muslim judging by his recent activity. I'm not sure if you saw the whole video but by checking it as a whole you wouldn't assume he left Islam from the experiences he mentioned.
Maybe this talk needs to be delivered again. It would sound more genuine if you took more responsibility for your former- self choices . It would sound more honest.
The kid with 32 on his T shirt looks like Nas from Nas Daily
What is frightening about this man is his lack of self-awareness and accountability. He still tell things as others made him do things.
It's all about: my family scolded me a bit too much, they gave me a brochure, they talked me into this and that, they followed me and gave me a wonderful weapon how could I say NO? The "bug" caught me and that's why I dragged my wife and children along and became an agent of radicalization, not my fault, then another person talked me out of this and that, oh let's start a TED career! Like: where was HE all the time?
Oh no,in Islsm you font have own will ,you need to follow crowd.
Didn't you hear that his uncles were controlling him.He could not be himself,he was afraid shat his family or community or imans would say.
So he start thinking fir himself thanks God
Let me clarify what the Quran has to say (remember I am not a scholar)
there is no compulsion (force) in religion
(Quran 2:256)
Whoever Kills one Man. Killed humanity. And whoever saved one man has saved whole mankind.
(Surah-Al-Mayidah 32)
Spend the cause of God (charity to the poor) and do not contribute to your destruction with your own hands, but do good, for God loves those who do good (virtuous)
(Surah Al-Baqarah 2:195)
As you see. Extremism is not Islam. Islam promotes peace. They are the misinterpretation of the Quran.
I really hate how western media portray Muslim
If muslims weren't tyrant's no one will be reporting on them honey
I mean I don't like all religion
@Falcon Hyperion Osama Bin Laden is your dad correct?
@@predatorpool2986 Muslims aren't tyrants, its those terrorist organizations and some extremist
@@predatorpool2986 Muslims aren't tyrants honey
I wish people understood the difference between someone who is and isn't an extremist. It isn't tied to ethnicity or religion.
he had a warped version of islam
When Muhammed was in mecca he preached a peaceful version of islam he won got 70 to 150 converts for 12 years . then he migrate to medina an preached a violent and oppressive type of islam for 10 years he got thousands of new converts and died in A D 632
No matter what religion we subscribe to, we are all worshipping the same God. Spoiler Alert: Allah from the Quran and God from the Bible are the same Entity. Throughout history God has sent ambassadors, or prophets, in attempts to convey His teachings. Once these prophets pass away, these holy teachings are then corrupted, or hijacked, by followers who alter these truths with their own selfish ideas. Whoever believes that God will reward u for killing nonbelievers has been lied to. The meaning of life is love. God is love.
Islam is not the problem , extremists are . Quran is not the problem , misinterpreters are
This guy said he's been to Pakistan damn pashtuns
For all his wisdom , he could not bring himself to admit the inherent intolerance and violence !slam promotes, and instead chose to blame it on interpretation by various schools of thought. I encourage everyone to read the quran, to get an understanding of what it is all about. Will open your eyes.
He talked alot but didn't really say much.
@4.30 oh god atleast he took his family rather selling them
This was touching and educational.
Thank you Allah for saving me from this man blessing me to know he was on some radical and now I know he was a rat trying to set me up
Don’t say this , go kill some non believers to prove your love to Bullah🤡
Even he can't assure his children's childrens will not be Radicals, Good or Bad interpreters of Islam we don't like you

Nice testimonial. Like one apostate says; 'Stay away from I_slam!'
As an American, ive never had to experience something like this, unless you count Christian extremism. Which in my opinion CAN be violent extremism, given the mindset of a person. This was a fascinating listen. Peace be to everyone.
When's the last time a "Christian extremist" committed or plotted mass murder in America?
Mike Mosque shootings. There are SO many.
Leo Leo in America? Go ahead and give one example lol
Mike bet. I gotchu
There was a shooting in Poway Synagogue, in California on April 7th of last year. White Christian male using a Smith & Wesson M&P 15.
