I went down the exact same track as this brother. I left Christianity on my own by the age of twelve. By the age of fifteen I was involved in psychedelics, and reading many of the same books as mentioned. I tripped over a thousand times on LSD, Psilocybin Mushrooms, Salvia Divinorum, San Pedro Cactus, 2CB, MDMA and DMT during my journey to seek the Truth. I eventually found Islam in Chicago, in 1999, and took my Shahaada in West Rogers Park. Alhamdulillaah.
It’s interesting that people who do go down this track actually end up being Muslims. I didn’t do psychedelics and all but I was deeply involved in the occult (so much so that I joined the FreeMasons) basically when we involve ourselves with the occult (satanism) it’s out of egoism and that’s when we worship our desires (like he said) to the point where we lack direction in life. God gives us direction, without God we are like lost sheep.
@@BudgetGainsByJJ I studied the occult in depth for many years. My grandfather was a 32° Scottish Rite and a Royal Arch Mason. I came to a point where I had two paths in front of me. On the left, hidden knowledge, Freemasonry. On the right, open knowledge, Islam. I chose the right path.
I did not follow those paths directly, thank God, but since I was a kid I had my Cuban mother telling me about weird stories from Cuba about the occult (ghosts and hidden spirits), and I did visit Cuba a few times, but I grew up in Italy, before finally moving to the USA a few years ago. One day when I was 20 or so, in Italy, a Muslim friend and I, both smokers of weed at the time (we both quit, and I recommend quitting), were smoking at night in the park, all dark and foggy, and both of us baked, and he started to talk about the jinn and to explain to me what he knew about it, and I was really interested and I had to learn more and more, so I often went to him for those questions. Then I started to research on my own, and when I read the Quran in my language (Italian) I immediately recognized the truth in its content, and I couldn't stop reading, then after a few months I converted. Slowly over time, by reading and understanding the Quran, and the Books He revealed before it, and by praying and being patient, I started to understand many things about my life that I did not understand before, I realized how God has protected me since when I was born and while I grew up. I finally understood why when I was in middle school I would refuse talking about sexual things and I stayed away from people who talked about it, and I always hated the sexual dances and music of the Cuban people as I was surrounded by that music and music videos often, and that I was unable to lie to my advantage while keeping a straight face because every time I tried I felt the weight of it and sometimes even laughed at my own lies, and even when I did very wrong things (stealing) I was unable to keep it secret and confessed it to my parents, and paid the consequences, and I now realize that all of that was He protecting me and teaching me lessons, and I am grateful. And when I got the knowledge I started seeing at things happening in my life and realizing they happen with a reason and not randomly, and I can instinctively understand when God is telling me that I am doing something wrong by interpreting what's happening. And also, I want to give one advice, which is going to upset some Muslims, but I testify only to the truth, and I testify that there's no god but Allah, God, Ar-Rahman, whatever name you call Him, to Him belong the best names; my advice is to be aware of the false Islamic scholars, pay attention to their words and don't consider them as being always right, in fact many Islamic scholars are deceivers and they are not guided themselves, so if you don't have a strong faith you may find yourself following them forever, but if you have a strong faith, when God tells you that something is not right (about what an Islamic scholar is saying), then follow God instead of that scholar; I have found many inconsistencies between the Quranic message and the standard Sunni schools of thought, and even though, as brother Eddie said in this video, there are no theological differences between all the Islamic denominations/sects, as every single Islamic sect agrees on the concept of Tahweed, there are many practical differences, and I recommend everyone to seek God in a personal manner through His revelations, rather than depending on others to do the thinking for you. And since I have mentioned weed before, I want to advise anyone who smokes it to quit for a while and see the difference for themselves, and then I advice to quit permanently. Weed was my way to experience reality differently, however it made me extremely lazy and unproductive, it made me paranoid (I sometimes had very vivid thoughts about stuff like the FBI coming to my home etc.), and it caused serious damage to my short term memory and focus, in fact even now that I quit smoking it almost 6 months ago, I still have a very poor short term memory, and difficulty to focus. It will improve with time InshaAllah, I can only put my trust in He who guides me.
There is the STANDARD Shahada and then there's the unspoken yet TRUE Shahada. After reciting the standard Shahada, the Muslim believer soon meets, face to face, something horrible and repulsive to our God-given human attributes of love and basic human decency and morality. Sahih al-Bukhari 6130 Narrated `Aisha: I used to play with the dolls in the presence of the Prophet, and my girl friends also used to play with me. When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to enter (my dwelling place) they used to hide themselves, but the Prophet would call them to join and play with me. (The playing with the dolls and similar images is forbidden, but it was allowed for `Aisha at that time, as she was a little girl, not yet reached the age of puberty.) (Fath-ul-Bari page 143, Vol.13) I believe that this is the unspoken but TRUE Shahada. This Shahada is to either reject or silently bear witness that "Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah who [given by Allah the strength of 30 men to satisfy 11 or so wives in one night (Sahih al-Bukhari 268)] married a 6 year old and entered her as a prepubercent 9 year old child still playing with dolls." Would you give away your own daughter, sister or niece at the vulnerable age of Aisha (6) and have her violated at the age of 9? Violeted because she is prepubercent. Just trying to process this in my mind makes a part of me die! This unspoken yet TRUE Shahada is potentially the biggest reason for the apostasy of Muslims and new "reverts" suddenly disgusted to discover the Messenger of Allah's immoral, inhumane and unnatural act. What do you think? COME OUT OF THIS CULT! But even the best of Muslims should finally be able to REJECT the Qur'an's claim (QS 29:46) that Allah is YAHWEH the true God of Israel through comparing each of their attitude towards the marriage age for "young women". Back then 9 year-olds were really big?? You will perish! About a thousand years before Aisha, the God of Israel compares Jerusalem (representing Israel his chosen nation) to a woman who is growing up to the point that she is ready for marriage (Israel is ready for the covenant with God): "I made you grow like a plant of the field. You grew and developed and ENTERED PUBERTY. Your breasts had formed and your hair had grown, yet you were stark naked. “ ‘Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that YOU WERE OLD ENOUGH FOR LOVE, I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your naked body. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine."(Ezekiel 16:7-8). Just as the passerby in the METHAPHOR saves the young woman from nakedness, God saved Israel from shame in Egypt and made them his own people by making a covenant with them at Mt Sinai. It is easy to see, through this metaphor, that to the true God of Israel only a PERVERTED and REPROBATE mind would accept a 54 year old man entering a 9 year old prepubescent child still playing with dolls, as a prophet of the God of Israel. Unlike the mind of the true God of Israel, the mind of Allah of the Qur’an accepts immoral, inhumane and unnatural acts because he allows his messenger, Muhammad, to marry a 6 year old and entering her at 9 as a PREPUBERCENT still playing with dolls. Using your God given common sense, this PERVERTED and REPROBATE mind of the Kaaba god cannot be the same as the mind of the true God of Israel. Christ had done the same, CERTAINLY I-and billions of other Christians-would not be Christian today. The Aisha story is just one of many immoral fruits of Muhammad. Jesus said we would know false prophets by their fruits. Muhammad is the greatest of all false prophets. Denounce this reprobate Shahada because it is a condemnation against you on the day the true God of Israel judges you. Allah of the Qur’an is a false god disguised as YAHWEH the true God of Israel. There is no written historical records of Allah’s existence before 610 except as Hubal the chief moon god of the Kaaba. Let him who has ears hear and be saved from this reprobate religion and from the wrath of God to come! Blessings. 1.

It’s crazy how he only reverted in November last year and that he’s never met a Muslim prior to that, his pronunciation and knowledge is very impressive, Allahumma barik
He could be one of the descendents of Muslims in Spain who were treated with the Christian love and compassion as they mass-murd'red and mass-expulsed them from Spain, all while mass-tortur-ng them in diverse ways to please Eur0Jeez.
@@DesertVox they already established that he is Puerto Rican spanish. More likely that he isnt a Decendant from Andalus.. you are talking bout thousands of years here lol. He is just a typical muslim, in which requires you to understand the arabic language mashallah
Son of God does not mean that God has a child in Christianity! *what a mistake in the Qur'an!* Son of God are 2 titles one referring to the Word of God and one referring to creation (humans, angels, demons)
Hebr 1,2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, *by whom also he made the worlds;* as everyone can see the term Son of God refers to the Word of God = god himself! For through that God created the worlds! *what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Tha fact that Non-Arabs can pronounce Surahs of the Quran with such accuracy and eloquence is a miracle in itself. Welcome to the biggest family on earth brother.
Being born into Islam, I always find it refreshing to see people who find Islam, they are very inspirational and always drive me to think about how can I improve myself as a Muslim.
@@_truthful_q_ yes because there was no Islam in those times. You can’t compare it. I’m talking nowadays where there are thousands of people born into Islam everyday.
@@HeresMo I used to hear many things from those born Muslims about reverts. Some negative, but mostly positive. So, many reverts now have their own children, and perhaps don't find the zeal they had for the religion in them. This isn't surprising. When you have to fight/work for something, you will appreciate it more. It's not something that can be forced either, but instead they must observe a good example, and you have to explain to them why Islam. Today's generation are distracted by technology, and the false narrative that all religions are equal. Of course people are free to choose what they worship, but if you compare like for like, even from a practical point of view, Islam is the clear winner.
I agree with you. Looking at their journeys, it makes me realize that their effortlessness really moves my emotions and prays that I will become a better Muslim woman.
I'm 36 and consider myself an intellectual, but this 23 year old ran circles around me, I learned so much from this interview, may Allah preserve you both!!
He seems to be a very intelligent brother. Obviouslt it is all from Allah but I wonder how much of his mental capacity was expanded due to the psychedelics?
I converted in 2020 but have been struggling this year 2023 with my addiction to methadone , nursing school, my marriage to a man that wants to go 50/50 when im not working and im in school, my 10 year old having anxiety ... i stopped praying and took off my hijab because it all became so difficult that i would cry .. and yesterday i contacted someone that was going to bring me in to try ayuwasca. Its supposed to heal me from my addiction. And today this video popped up. Alhamdulila for all of Allahs mercy he is watching me and warning me. I love Allah!
If you stopped praying who do you think will help you? Only Allah can help us if we make the effort too. Start praying, stop doing drugs, keep it simple, In'sha Allah
Very well said. Psychedelics can be a useful tool if one is prepared. However there are serious traps, one of the biggest being ego inflation and as you said self worship. I fell in those traps myself. Interestingly it was one of those experiences that recently ignited a burning desire in me to learn more of Islam. In this experience I realized that the only important thing in life worthy of pursuing is to submit to Allah’s will. I only have two choices, be a slave to my own desires or a slave to Allah. The choice is a no brainer, but the path is difficult. I pray we all find peace by submitting to Allah’s grand design for our lives.
Nice comment peaceful mind, I so wholly concur with your last statement, may Allah make the path to Him an easy one for us all. Putting Allah above everything including our ego is indeed a hard thing to do, yet when one does this consistently day in day out Allah makes the path to Him an easy one inshallah, on our part it consists of so much restraint, discipline and constantly checking in with Allah. For me I find voluntary fasting outside of ramadan a beautiful way to connect to Allah, may be if you up to it try it
The brain - pineal gland releases DMT before death. DMT is like an ego death when taken it replicates a near death experience. The Egyptians who built pyramids used DMT also. It is known that when meditating to stimulate the third eye DMT also releases.
Some people are content with what Allah (swt) has provided them with. I think this Brother is in the happiest era of his life and will live and die in tranquility. I say let him be. I personally don’t like dealing with other people and their opinions as well … AND TEACHING IS LITERALLY DEALING WITH THAT 💀
The Trips I've been having really helped me a lot. I'm now able to meditate and I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
Anybody who has undergone intend psilocybin therapy will understand that trying to get life changing therapeutic benefits of psychedelics without the trip is laughable.that's what rattles you out of depression.
I always hear people saying microdosing is bad. Microdosing mushrooms can not be deemed bad. A proper guidance from someone with a broad knowledge about it is definitely needed to open you up to the beauty of it
I know a friend of mine who speaks like this brother. When he speaks, the way he explains and describes things is very eloquent. I pray that Allah will provide him hidayah, and increase all of our Eman. We need more people to represent Islam and explain it well to the English speaking world
"When someone says they're spiritual and not religious, they're trying to imply they've been unable to apply a systematic philosophical framework of reason to their day to day lives. This to me seems to be a trivialization of what religion is. It's not a list of philosophical beliefs you can adopt or exclude. You have to take the whole package for itself." So well said - Masha'Allah to this brother! May Allah Ta'alla continue to increase him in beneficial knowledge and wisdom and guide him on the righteous path. Aameen 🤲🏼
Brother Eddie you are showing the real picture of how people of different backgrounds are accepting lslam Alhamdulilah may Allah give you extra strength and energy to continue your journey to show the of lslam Ameen
A new muslim I met shocked me. About a year after I met him, I went to Fajr prayer and joined the prayer. When the prayer finished, guess who was leading the prayer.
SubhanAllah, i wanted to try Ayahuasca so badly some years ago. Im so glad Allah guided me to Islam before i went down that path. Alhamdulilah, Islam and the worship of Allah is the ultimate peace in this Dunya.
I've experienced something quite similar, i was not practicing and was traveliing a lot. Ppl that i've met in a festival in Koh Phangan Island (Thailand), we ate together, doing yoga and all the stuffs happening in this island. One day the first group wanted me to try LSD, i said Nah. Then a guy met in a yoga group one night wanted to book for me a Ayahuasca evening with him and others. I've seen Nat geographics footages about this and again something inside me was warning me. And i declined. Now i am so happy, didn't get into these traps.
@@lowpoul5552 These things are gateways to so much evil we cannot even imagine. It's crazy how the Shaytaan beautifies these things. I used to be a Kemetic/ African yoga instructor, was into the concept of African spirituality etc. Much like you I guess I was always scared of taking any type of drug as I always thought I would be the unlucky one who would die lol. I laugh now but I think Allah was protecting me. I look at some of the people I used to hang around with now. It's like my vision is clearer as they look like zombies. Always high and strung out on all kinds of vices in the name of "spirituality. I pray for their guidance.
@@Kamikaze_0088 These ppl were always taliking about Univers, energy.. Like instead of saying soul, they were talking about "energy" and instead of God they were saying the "Univers" gives this and that. Well it was nice meeting these ppl, they were nice and it was like living in the hippie era with them. The yoga broke me instead of make me feel better lol i was too rusty for them.
This brother seems to have made it via that path just fine. It may take some strong medicine to break the seal for some people. The problem it seems is that the drug might become an idol itself leaving the user to spin in circles. But it does seem that people can make it out of the magical realm.
@@joefilter2923 Alhamdulilah, that's the beauty of Allah's Mercy. No matter where you've been or what path you have been upon, if Guidance is written for you it's yours. Islam is so rich because of this. I come from a family that are almost all completely substance dependent and from a community where sihr is a cultural practice and no harm is seen in it. You can be anyone and find Islam. Alhamdulilah
Damn im a muslim and this guys theology of all religions is so great specially Islam and more then me. He made me feel guilty.The way he explained our celestial bodies being tuned in with the universal law and how our prayer timing changes was so great also the way he explained the issues with Christianity and Judaism was excellent, every muslim should know that and be able to explain it like that. Everything he said was impressive. Our brother would definitely beat us in earning a higher Jannah. Even his recitation of Al-Fatiha was so great and amazing MaShaAllah and hes just 23 man hats off. I wish i can speak to him and my message reaches to him man. Allah definitely loves him greatly and i wish to see him become a great imaam of our time and a great sufi.❤️💯
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview, deeply impressed by the oral ability, vast word pool, intellect, skill and knowledge to convey ones thoughts and reasoning so soundly of this young man and aspire to aquire such abilities myself being similar of age. Did not enjoy putting Russel Brand on the thumbnail in a clickbaity manner however lol
Thank you brother for your story! Welcome and God bless !! Your recitation made me cry. You're a beautiful person and thank you brother Eddie for your tireless efforts 🙏
Also dmt is a substance in the brain, responsible for our dreams and it also gets released during death... Kinda odd to demonize something you don't understand @@GiGoDeniz
How can I possibly get in touch with brother Alex. I have lost my little brother to Monism and New Age spirituality. I've tried for more than a year now to put sense into him and guide him back to the Truth but I failed miserably. Watching the video now, I feel a sense of hope. Brother Alex knows this New Age movement very well and could definitely understand where my brother is coming from and communicate with him in his own language. God says in the Quran: "Who is better in speech than one who calls to Allah, does righteous deeds and says indeed I am among the Muslims." If Brother Alex could do Dawah and help save my little brother's soul it would be a blessing and a gift from Allah. May Allah guide us all. And thank you so much Eddie for all the work that you do! You are a true inspiration and blessing sent by God to all of us. May Allah reward you infinitely. Amin.
Asalamalaykum, Sincerity speaks volumes, May it please Allah to say so, this is the very best of the best interviews I’ve seen & heard up to date, May Allah Almighty increase you both in Knowledge & steadfastness in peace of heart, thank you
Your reciting of Al-Fatiha is really heart-touching brother, God bless you and bless all the beautiful people behind The Deen Show and all the similar good hearted brothers
Great conversation and very relevant to some of todays challenges especially for people who are still searching. Masha'Allah to this young intelligent man and the young host who has a vision to make the deen show and interviews like this happen.
Masha'Allah our young brother Alex is such a blessed soul. Despite being a new Muslim, his understanding of Islam is admirable, very eloquent, matured with a pleasant demeanour....a prolific daie in the future, Insha'Allah🤲
Does he know that dear Muslims have been deceived into believing that Islam is a true ABRAHAMIC FAITH? The only reason Muslims believe so comes from Allah's claim in QS 29:46 to be the true God YAHWEH (Exodus 3:14-15) of Israel whom the prophets and the New Testament repeatedly refer to, ironically, as 'FATHER' (Deuteronomy 32:6, Psalms 89:26-27, Isaiah 63:16, Matthew 6:9) and 'CREATOR' People will perish because of lack of knowledge. The fifth book of the LAW OF MOSES (Torah) makes reference to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as 'FATHER' and CREATOR . Moses was addressing the rebellious Israelites when he said: "Is this the way you repay the Lord, you foolish and unwise people? Is he not your FATHER, your CREATOR, who made you and formed you?" (Deuteronomy 32:6). Yet Allah of the Qur’an, in no way, shape or form (spiritually, literally or metaphorically) is he FATHER to anyone (QS 6:100). There is no word like 'Allah-Abba' or 'Allah-father'" in Islam. Jesus prayed "Abba, Father". When Arabic-speaking Christians use the word Allah, it is usually used in combination with the word al-Ab. Allah al-Ab means “God the Father,” and this usage is one way Arab Christians differentiate their true God from the Islamic god of the Hajr e aswad (Black stone) and Kaaba. QS 6:100 " .. And they falsely ascribe to Him sons and daughters without any knowledge. Glory be to Him. And He is far beyond and above all the things that they attribute (to Him)" If you are honest, you have to accept that these two are not the same god: one is the FATHER and the other REJECTS the idea that he is the FATHER. Yet this didn't stop Allah from openely lying to beloved Muslims by falsely claiming to be the God of Israel who is creator of the heavens, the earth, the seas and everything in them (Psalms 146:6): QS 29:46. "...We believe in all that is revealed to us and in that which has been revealed to you, and our God and your God is One, and to Him we stand resigned." Wow! If I were Muslim this would be a deal breaker! Allah's false claim is the biggest LIE in the history of mankind ever since Satan LIED to Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden!! Beloved Muslim, why do you worship a god who steals the identity of another god? Why don't Muslims first ask us the people of the scriptures whether the 7th century god of the Kaaba is indeed our God as he claims? The identity of Allah is really a mixing of and theft of the identities of other gods into one god. This is why those who heard of Muhammad’s god accused him QS 38:5. ‘Has he turned (the whole lot of) gods (we worshipped) into One God? Very strange indeed is this thing.’ In an attempt to deceive or forcibly convert Jews and Christians, the author of the Qur’an incoperated some stories about Adam, Abraham, Moses etc from Jewish scriptures and Jewish fairy tales (Talmud). Islam is a false Abrahamic faith. The author of the Qur’an further blasphemed and corrupted (Al-Maidah 5:109-120) the true nature of Jesus as the eternal Word of God which became flesh (Isaiah 40:3-5, Malachi 3:1 and John 1:1,14) through using unbiblical stories about Jesus from WELL-KNOWN gnostic and heretical sources going around at that time such as the so-called "Infancy Gospel of Thomas", "The Gospel of Pseudo Mathew" (Unknown), and "The Second Treatise of the Great Seth". Beloved Muslims are encouraged to reflect on this truth and ponder as to the real identity of this mysterious Allah of the Qur'an. It is crystal clear that this 7th century god is a deceiver who is not the creator taught by all the Prophets as 'Father' and Creator. God has always been a God of sacrifice even from the first book of the Torah when he commanded Abraham to sacrifice his only son of the PROMISE (Isaac) Genesis 22:2. This was later reflected in the yearly sacrifice of a SPOTLESS LAMB for the atonement of sins (Day of Atonement) which ALL the prophets of God participated in from the tabernacle of Moses to the temple of Solomon in Jerusalem. This ended with the Messiah offering his life as a sin offering (Isaiah 53) However, the Kaaba was never designed for the sacrificial system commanded by the God of Israel-whom Allah falsely claims to be (QS 29:46). There is no proof whatsoever in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms that it was built by Abraham and Ishmael as claimed in QS 2:127 and QS 22:26-27! It's a big lie! This is why Allah's atonement of sins in the pagan Kaaba [al-Tirmidhi, 959] was never through the sacrifice of a spotless lamb but was, and still is, through a pagan stone claimed to have "fallen from heaven" and was white but became black because of the sins of the sons of Adam (al-Tirmidhi 877). Islam is a false Abrahamic faith. Allah is not YAHWEH.
2. If he is not the God who is BOTH Father and Creator then who is this mysterious Allah of the Qur’an? Can't a false god also claim to be the true God, Creator, all Merciful, Most Gracious etc? Could he be the best of all makereen (deceivers) perhaps? "The great dragon (Satan) was hurled down-that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his ANGELS with him." (Revelation 12:9) The mysterious ANGELIC creature which appeared to Muhammad in the cave of Hira never at any point revealed itself as the Angel Gabriel of the Bible. The angel had pressed Muhammad three times until he thought he was going to die. Muhammad's own testiment thought the angel was demonic. (IBN Ishaq 106, al Tabari vol 6,7071). It doesn't surprise us the people of the scriptures that one of Allah's 99 names is the MOST PROUD (Al-Mutakabbir), and calls on Muslims to do "RIGHTEOUS deeds" through the 5 pillars of Islam after the example of the SERVANT of Allah. Wasn't Satan cast down to earth because he became PROUD on account of his beauty (Ezekiel 28:17)? Muslims may wonder: could Satan and his SERVANTS really desguise themselves as agents of righteousness? Can Satan, who also desires the title of the true God ('the Most High') make people fast, give to charity, dress modestly, keep away from alcohol, premarital sex and worship him (idolatry) as the true God? "And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an ANGEL of light. So it is no surprise if his SERVANTS, also, disguise themselves as servants of RIGHTEOUSNESS. Their end will correspond to their deeds." 2 Corinthians 11:14-15 Let him who has ears hears! Blessings.
What a smart lad he is! Alhamdulilah, intellectuals are a benefit to this deem, being widely read is something we are lacking in our midst. I love that he has knowledge on different philosophies. It makes us stronger
I delved into the new age myself back when I was lost and agnostic, and got into the world of "universal spirituality" and energies and what not. I can tell you with certainty that if you dive deep into psychedelics and the subconscious mind (become what they call a "psychonaut"), you will eventually encounter and communicate with the jinn, and ultimately find yourself driven into hermeticism, magic and the occult!
I have a question, people testify that they are helped by these "entities" during their DMT trips. And many say that these trips changed their lives for better (such as healing depression). Some also encounter evil energies. If these entities are really the Jinn, then why would they help us. And what about the argument these are no more than hallucinations...
@@birdsongs482 Some are religious and some are not, some are good and some are evil. They are like us. Not all of them are shayateens. But we don't have the right to communicate with them.
@@birdsongs482 if you asked me this same question a few years back, I would"ve told you yes these "entities" are indeed benevolent and they do help people, and dmt did change my life and made me waaay more "spiritual" and in tune with my inner self, my surroundings and with the spiritual world!.....HOWEVER, these "entities" are usually not what they say they are. They just play the part and pretend to be benevolent and angelic, and give you good advice and wisdom and show you guidance...etc, to hook you in. Once you're hooked, they start to slowly reel you in, very slowly over a long period of time, several years in fact. They'll start by showing you that you are one with the universe, then convince you that "all life is sacred" and you shouldn't eat animals or consume animal products or even their milk. Then move you on to hugging trees and worshipping celestial object and mother nature (her name is Gaia) Then move you on to thinking that God is the universe itself, and everything in the universe is a part of God, therefore you are also a god and the universe itself is obligated to obey your command, and all you have to do is believe and give your orders and the universe (or the vortex) will conspire to make your wishes come true, because you're a god remember?......It'll feel really amazing at first, and without you realizing, you'll find yourself deifying those "entities", and slowly but surely, you'll start paying respect and reverence to other, much older "entities" that people had been worshipping like Buddha (yes, they do appear to people pretending to be Buddha himself sometimes) or the hindu gods like krishna or shiva or kali...etc etc!.....They can be very alluring and even seductive!......Then, you go deeper, and find out you can actually evoke or summon those "entities" and have them help you or serve you through ritualistic meditation, and that's when you know you're already knee deep into magic and occultism!..... BAM, their job is done, you're now a polytheist pagan hippie, who also deals in black magic!....job well done!
Aslamalakum this video I’ve just shared with my non Muslim friends who I always try to guide towards Islam thanks for these tools they are so useful real people telling the truth lots of love from the sake of Allah from Ireland 🇮🇪
Wow, our stories are similar! I too am Puerto Rican, raised by a single mom, used Ayahuasca and 5MeoDMT. I was even a practicing DMT facilitator. In fact, on my TH-cam page, I have videos that I made after my 5meoDMT experiences as well as sharing my addiction with weed. I’ll have to make another as I learn more on my path of Islam. I was raised Catholic, then turned Christian, went to “spiritual / Jinn” route, even entertained Buddhism but I am finally back home. 🤲🏻
Yes brother. You are one of chosen human beings to get Allah's hidayah. Alhamdulillah..I am happy with you. Your recitation of Al-fatihah is so wonderful, brought me to tears of happiness.
What a bright, articulate and divinely inspired young man! It’s like the Truth runs thru his tongue so flawlessly. Faith is a gift from Allah! He gives it to whom so ever He wants! May Allah protect and increase our faith. Ameen.
Mashallah, I'm very impressed with this young brother and his journey to Islam. He's very well spoken. I'd love to follow his journey on the Truth but his name isn't mentioned anywhere in this video. Anyways, may Allah SWT continue to guide this sincere brother to the Truth and increase him in knowledge and wisdom, and allow him to be a beautiful light for our deen.
I fully agree with you. Someone that speaks so eloquently with real experience in different stages and phases of his life and clearly is someone that has the ability to learn this quickly, we should see more of him. Did you already find him?
MashaAllah great show bro. My sincere dua for you and for so inspiring brother Alex. Blessed reverts are the most powerful inspiration for a born Muslim like me. JazakAllah o khairan kaseera
Masha Allah Barakallahu Feekum, brother, May Allah bless and keep you steadfast in our religion Islam Ameen. JazakumAllah Khairan, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Amazing work, brother Eddie May Allah rewards you immensely and your family Ameen. Watching from California Orange county.
SubhanAllah! The Deen of Islam is growing and growing. The only true religion on the planet. People have nowhere else to go in terms of religion. Can't beat islam, it takes care of all of what you're looking for to live a righteous life. Quran and Sunnah, that's all we need. CONGRATS‼️ May الله keep you steadfast and your feet firm upon the deen! اللهم امين 🤍❤️
I'll recommend you to a store I got some of psychedelic products Lsd, edibles cannabis DMT,mushrooms XTC, Xanax, vape pen and they Also help out with newbies and they give great treat....
Subhanallah!!!! I share such a similar experience with this brother! May Allah continue to guide us! May the umma continue to increase in number and wisdom 💖
My dear son Alex may Allah swt give strength, courage , barakah and Khair in dunia and Akhira Ameen to stick to the path of lslam and spread the truth of lslam Ameen Ya Rabbul Alameen
Masha Allah. What an incredible young man! Please start your own You Tube Channel, brother. You have so much to share with others. Looking froward to your social media presence.
What a gentleman i was born muslim raised as a muslim but see'ing him makes me wonder there is so many things to make myself better muslim, I wanna listen to him more masha allaah very young and still experienced and very humble
thank you Eddie thank you Alex lots to intellectually chew over, Alhamdullilah I have never found new ageism or new spirituality interesting so listening to Alex I learned a lot, everyday I thank Allah for Islam and the Quran He has sent to us.
non muslims who convert or revert have such an advantage in the fact that we were truly able to see BOTH sides of things and how it can with islam. as a former new - ager, (but never with psychedelics!!!) his perspective is very appreciated. this is why no one should judge anyone's journey. you never know what knowledge and wisdom they can acquire.
I took dmt, lsd, salvia, magic mushroom you name it when i was in highschool and i always see this elf like entity in my dmt trip, now that i became a practicing Muslim i am convinced psychedelic sort of like connects you to the world of Jinn. Allah knows best
Maybe, but I don't think so, because you don't have to do drugs to understand the unseen. How could it be that the only way to certain knowledge was haram? In fact isn't Allah in control of all? If He wants to He can show you or grant you knowledge that you'd understand a little of the unseen. And I only talk of my experience, not what I read in a book.
Psychedelics in general are substances that are beneficial to man's health needs, shrooms, Lsd, Dmt, MDMA, etc when used properly eases depression. You can get it from the handle below..
@@blakesimon5318 i dont think so, i know my friends who actually became schizophrenic because of lsd. He went to a mental hospital twice and he can barely recognize me anymore
MashaAllah he is so well spoken. I hope he continues on the path of dawah. I advise my brother to come in contact with the three muslims, one of them has a similar back story as you. Would be a great hearing you talk.
No! don't make him into an internet idol, Subhana Allah, he is still new in his Iman. Don't give Shaytaan such a weapon with which to trip him up. Why would you put him to that kind of test?
Salam, does the brother have a twitter account or something like that? I was very impressed with the whole dialogue and his analysis of things. Alhamdulillah
He is Mashallah very understanding of different aspect of life and the situation around him. I am so happy for him and proud of him. May Allah ST help him to help youth and young Muslims and humanity as a whole. I see Mashallah he is capable of being a guide. May Allah ST safe you for harms.
Really amazing interview and very impressed with the wisdom Allah has blessed him with. Alhumdulillah brother ! May Allah continue to guide and may you be a great channel by which so many people will come to know and submit to our great creator. I'm from el salvador and it's a delight to see Latinos coming to islam. Allah akbar!!
during an experience, i pulled out the quran and then prayed.. and all the chaos of my visions turned to perfect geometric art..it was beautiful and very divine... it was then i realized that islamic "sacred" geometric art came from the unseen world. it was also revealed to me through that experience, that whatever the muslims were doing was on the right path..during these experiences i found that it brought a strenght and foundation to recite quranic verses..i am being lead to believe (without any evidence at the moment) that in the past there were muslim shah-mans that guided people through ayahuasca experiences (or equivalent DMT enethogens) for exorcisms and this truth is being covered up.
That's one of the Miracles of the Quran, it's Amazing how quickly you can learn Arabic and it's literature it astounds me every time. Great video thankyou.

I went down the exact same track as this brother. I left Christianity on my own by the age of twelve. By the age of fifteen I was involved in psychedelics, and reading many of the same books as mentioned. I tripped over a thousand times on LSD, Psilocybin Mushrooms, Salvia Divinorum, San Pedro Cactus, 2CB, MDMA and DMT during my journey to seek the Truth. I eventually found Islam in Chicago, in 1999, and took my Shahaada in West Rogers Park. Alhamdulillaah.
MashaAllah Brother❤
It’s interesting that people who do go down this track actually end up being Muslims.
I didn’t do psychedelics and all but I was deeply involved in the occult (so much so that I joined the FreeMasons) basically when we involve ourselves with the occult (satanism) it’s out of egoism and that’s when we worship our desires (like he said) to the point where we lack direction in life. God gives us direction, without God we are like lost sheep.
@@BudgetGainsByJJ I studied the occult in depth for many years. My grandfather was a 32° Scottish Rite and a Royal Arch Mason. I came to a point where I had two paths in front of me. On the left, hidden knowledge, Freemasonry. On the right, open knowledge, Islam. I chose the right path.
I did not follow those paths directly, thank God, but since I was a kid I had my Cuban mother telling me about weird stories from Cuba about the occult (ghosts and hidden spirits), and I did visit Cuba a few times, but I grew up in Italy, before finally moving to the USA a few years ago. One day when I was 20 or so, in Italy, a Muslim friend and I, both smokers of weed at the time (we both quit, and I recommend quitting), were smoking at night in the park, all dark and foggy, and both of us baked, and he started to talk about the jinn and to explain to me what he knew about it, and I was really interested and I had to learn more and more, so I often went to him for those questions. Then I started to research on my own, and when I read the Quran in my language (Italian) I immediately recognized the truth in its content, and I couldn't stop reading, then after a few months I converted. Slowly over time, by reading and understanding the Quran, and the Books He revealed before it, and by praying and being patient, I started to understand many things about my life that I did not understand before, I realized how God has protected me since when I was born and while I grew up. I finally understood why when I was in middle school I would refuse talking about sexual things and I stayed away from people who talked about it, and I always hated the sexual dances and music of the Cuban people as I was surrounded by that music and music videos often, and that I was unable to lie to my advantage while keeping a straight face because every time I tried I felt the weight of it and sometimes even laughed at my own lies, and even when I did very wrong things (stealing) I was unable to keep it secret and confessed it to my parents, and paid the consequences, and I now realize that all of that was He protecting me and teaching me lessons, and I am grateful. And when I got the knowledge I started seeing at things happening in my life and realizing they happen with a reason and not randomly, and I can instinctively understand when God is telling me that I am doing something wrong by interpreting what's happening. And also, I want to give one advice, which is going to upset some Muslims, but I testify only to the truth, and I testify that there's no god but Allah, God, Ar-Rahman, whatever name you call Him, to Him belong the best names; my advice is to be aware of the false Islamic scholars, pay attention to their words and don't consider them as being always right, in fact many Islamic scholars are deceivers and they are not guided themselves, so if you don't have a strong faith you may find yourself following them forever, but if you have a strong faith, when God tells you that something is not right (about what an Islamic scholar is saying), then follow God instead of that scholar; I have found many inconsistencies between the Quranic message and the standard Sunni schools of thought, and even though, as brother Eddie said in this video, there are no theological differences between all the Islamic denominations/sects, as every single Islamic sect agrees on the concept of Tahweed, there are many practical differences, and I recommend everyone to seek God in a personal manner through His revelations, rather than depending on others to do the thinking for you. And since I have mentioned weed before, I want to advise anyone who smokes it to quit for a while and see the difference for themselves, and then I advice to quit permanently. Weed was my way to experience reality differently, however it made me extremely lazy and unproductive, it made me paranoid (I sometimes had very vivid thoughts about stuff like the FBI coming to my home etc.), and it caused serious damage to my short term memory and focus, in fact even now that I quit smoking it almost 6 months ago, I still have a very poor short term memory, and difficulty to focus. It will improve with time InshaAllah, I can only put my trust in He who guides me.
There is the STANDARD Shahada and then there's the unspoken yet TRUE Shahada. After reciting the standard Shahada, the Muslim believer soon meets, face to face, something horrible and repulsive to our God-given human attributes of love and basic human decency and morality.
Sahih al-Bukhari 6130
Narrated `Aisha:
I used to play with the dolls in the presence of the Prophet, and my girl friends also used to play with me. When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to enter (my dwelling place) they used to hide themselves, but the Prophet would call them to join and play with me. (The playing with the dolls and similar images is forbidden, but it was allowed for `Aisha at that time, as she was a little girl, not yet reached the age of puberty.) (Fath-ul-Bari page 143, Vol.13)
I believe that this is the unspoken but TRUE Shahada. This Shahada is to either reject or silently bear witness that "Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah who [given by Allah the strength of 30 men to satisfy 11 or so wives in one night (Sahih al-Bukhari 268)] married a 6 year old and entered her as a prepubercent 9 year old child still playing with dolls."
Would you give away your own daughter, sister or niece at the vulnerable age of Aisha (6) and have her violated at the age of 9? Violeted because she is prepubercent. Just trying to process this in my mind makes a part of me die!
This unspoken yet TRUE Shahada is potentially the biggest reason for the apostasy of Muslims and new "reverts" suddenly disgusted to discover the Messenger of Allah's immoral, inhumane and unnatural act. What do you think? COME OUT OF THIS CULT!
But even the best of Muslims should finally be able to REJECT the Qur'an's claim (QS 29:46) that Allah is YAHWEH the true God of Israel through comparing each of their attitude towards the marriage age for "young women".
Back then 9 year-olds were really big?? You will perish! About a thousand years before Aisha, the God of Israel compares Jerusalem (representing Israel his chosen nation) to a woman who is growing up to the point that she is ready for marriage (Israel is ready for the covenant with God):
"I made you grow like a plant of the field. You grew and developed and ENTERED PUBERTY. Your breasts had formed and your hair had grown, yet you were stark naked. “ ‘Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that YOU WERE OLD ENOUGH FOR LOVE, I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your naked body. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine."(Ezekiel 16:7-8).
Just as the passerby in the METHAPHOR saves the young woman from nakedness, God saved Israel from shame in Egypt and made them his own people by making a covenant with them at Mt Sinai.
It is easy to see, through this metaphor, that to the true God of Israel only a PERVERTED and REPROBATE mind would accept a 54 year old man entering a 9 year old prepubescent child still playing with dolls, as a prophet of the God of Israel.
Unlike the mind of the true God of Israel, the mind of Allah of the Qur’an accepts immoral, inhumane and unnatural acts because he allows his messenger, Muhammad, to marry a 6 year old and entering her at 9 as a PREPUBERCENT still playing with dolls. Using your God given common sense, this PERVERTED and REPROBATE mind of the Kaaba god cannot be the same as the mind of the true God of Israel.
Christ had done the same, CERTAINLY I-and billions of other Christians-would not be Christian today. The Aisha story is just one of many immoral fruits of Muhammad. Jesus said we would know false prophets by their fruits. Muhammad is the greatest of all false prophets.
Denounce this reprobate Shahada because it is a condemnation against you on the day the true God of Israel judges you.
Allah of the Qur’an is a false god disguised as YAHWEH the true God of Israel.
There is no written historical records of Allah’s existence before 610 except as Hubal the chief moon god of the Kaaba.
Let him who has ears hear and be saved from this reprobate religion and from the wrath of God to come! Blessings.

It’s crazy how he only reverted in November last year and that he’s never met a Muslim prior to that, his pronunciation and knowledge is very impressive, Allahumma barik
He could be one of the descendents of Muslims in Spain who were treated with the Christian love and compassion as they mass-murd'red and mass-expulsed them from Spain, all while mass-tortur-ng them in diverse ways to please Eur0Jeez.
@@DesertVoxYes..
However, being a descendant doesn’t make one knowledgeable or good at pronunciation.
@@DesertVox they already established that he is Puerto Rican spanish. More likely that he isnt a Decendant from Andalus.. you are talking bout thousands of years here lol. He is just a typical muslim, in which requires you to understand the arabic language mashallah
Son of God does not mean that God has a child in Christianity!
*what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Son of God are 2 titles one referring to the Word of God and one referring to creation (humans, angels, demons)
Hebr 1,2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, *by whom also he made the worlds;*
as everyone can see the term Son of God refers to the Word of God = god himself! For through that God created the worlds! *what a mistake in the Qur'an!*
Tha fact that Non-Arabs can pronounce Surahs of the Quran with such accuracy and eloquence is a miracle in itself. Welcome to the biggest family on earth brother.
Miracle??
Mastering languages is a skill most people who apply themselves can attain.
And what's your background if you don't mind me asking?
@@FoursWithin exactly
@@FoursWithin he’s talking about the pronunciation of the surahs, not just knowing the language.
@@EB-gt1pq
Arabic is Arabic. The chapters/ surahs are in Arabic . How or why is it different from pronouncing any other ?
Being born into Islam, I always find it refreshing to see people who find Islam, they are very inspirational and always drive me to think about how can I improve myself as a Muslim.
Setuju
That's interesting...You do realise the majority of the prophet Muhammed's (SAW) companions were not born Muslim either?
@@_truthful_q_ yes because there was no Islam in those times. You can’t compare it. I’m talking nowadays where there are thousands of people born into Islam everyday.
@@HeresMo I used to hear many things from those born Muslims about reverts. Some negative, but mostly positive.
So, many reverts now have their own children, and perhaps don't find the zeal they had for the religion in them. This isn't surprising. When you have to fight/work for something, you will appreciate it more.
It's not something that can be forced either, but instead they must observe a good example, and you have to explain to them why Islam.
Today's generation are distracted by technology, and the false narrative that all religions are equal. Of course people are free to choose what they worship, but if you compare like for like, even from a practical point of view, Islam is the clear winner.
I agree with you. Looking at their journeys, it makes me realize that their effortlessness really moves my emotions and prays that I will become a better Muslim woman.
I'm 36 and consider myself an intellectual, but this 23 year old ran circles around me, I learned so much from this interview, may Allah preserve you both!!
Indeed!
Hence age is just a number!
So true!
He seems to be a very intelligent brother. Obviouslt it is all from Allah but I wonder how much of his mental capacity was expanded due to the psychedelics?
@@erminizationa lot of it is from the psychedelics.

This is the wisest, smartest and sincere 23 year old i have seen. He needs to become a teacher
Once he does here comes the grays 😂😂😂😮💨😮💨😮💨
He doesn't go into specifics and personal journey
I converted in 2020 but have been struggling this year 2023 with my addiction to methadone , nursing school, my marriage to a man that wants to go 50/50 when im not working and im in school, my 10 year old having anxiety ... i stopped praying and took off my hijab because it all became so difficult that i would cry .. and yesterday i contacted someone that was going to bring me in to try ayuwasca. Its supposed to heal me from my addiction. And today this video popped up. Alhamdulila for all of Allahs mercy he is watching me and warning me. I love Allah!
insah alaah Allah will help u
Allah tests those who he loves the most
If you stopped praying who do you think will help you? Only Allah can help us if we make the effort too. Start praying, stop doing drugs, keep it simple, In'sha Allah
Am mostly in your shoes.
No need to cover your hair to be muslim.

Very well said. Psychedelics can be a useful tool if one is prepared. However there are serious traps, one of the biggest being ego inflation and as you said self worship. I fell in those traps myself. Interestingly it was one of those experiences that recently ignited a burning desire in me to learn more of Islam. In this experience I realized that the only important thing in life worthy of pursuing is to submit to Allah’s will. I only have two choices, be a slave to my own desires or a slave to Allah. The choice is a no brainer, but the path is difficult. I pray we all find peace by submitting to Allah’s grand design for our lives.
Nice comment peaceful mind, I so wholly concur with your last statement, may Allah make the path to Him an easy one for us all. Putting Allah above everything including our ego is indeed a hard thing to do, yet when one does this consistently day in day out Allah makes the path to Him an easy one inshallah, on our part it consists of so much restraint, discipline and constantly checking in with Allah. For me I find voluntary fasting outside of ramadan a beautiful way to connect to Allah, may be if you up to it try it

The brain - pineal gland releases DMT before death. DMT is like an ego death when taken it replicates a near death experience. The Egyptians who built pyramids used DMT also. It is known that when meditating to stimulate the third eye DMT also releases.
I need that courage n I pray Allah bestows me with the courage to submit myself according to His will...that would bring peace in my life
This brother needs to make a youtube page asap. His knowledge and experiences are very important and relatable.
I totally thought the same!
Who is he?
That’s my boy Abdullah!
Yes i agree
Some people are content with what Allah (swt) has provided them with. I think this Brother is in the happiest era of his life and will live and die in tranquility. I say let him be. I personally don’t like dealing with other people and their opinions as well … AND TEACHING IS LITERALLY DEALING WITH THAT 💀
The Trips I've been having really helped me a lot. I'm now able to meditate and I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
Anybody who has undergone intend psilocybin therapy will understand that trying to get life changing therapeutic benefits of psychedelics without the trip is laughable.that's what rattles you out of depression.
I always hear people saying microdosing is bad. Microdosing mushrooms can not be deemed bad. A proper guidance from someone with a broad knowledge about it is definitely needed to open you up to the beauty of it

Mashallah can’t believe he is only 23, such good knowledge of deen and dunya, more so than some twice his age. Hope we hear more from him in future

He's probably been blessed with an easy life to be able to do that alhamdulillah
"When someone says they're spiritual and not religious, they're trying to imply they've been unable to apply a systematic philosophical framework of reason to their day to day lives. This to me seems to be a trivialization of what religion is. It's not a list of philosophical beliefs you can adopt or exclude. You have to take the whole package for itself."

A new muslim I met shocked me. About a year after I met him, I went to Fajr prayer and joined the prayer. When the prayer finished, guess who was leading the prayer.
😊
@freepalestine3383 no bro, it was the new muslim, plus he prayed really nicely too Mashallah.
As a Puerto Rican muslim this is beautiful to see! Alhamdulillah
SubhanAllah, i wanted to try Ayahuasca so badly some years ago. Im so glad Allah guided me to Islam before i went down that path. Alhamdulilah, Islam and the worship of Allah is the ultimate peace in this Dunya.
I've experienced something quite similar, i was not practicing and was traveliing a lot. Ppl that i've met in a festival in Koh Phangan Island (Thailand), we ate together, doing yoga and all the stuffs happening in this island. One day the first group wanted me to try LSD, i said Nah. Then a guy met in a yoga group one night wanted to book for me a Ayahuasca evening with him and others. I've seen Nat geographics footages about this and again something inside me was warning me. And i declined. Now i am so happy, didn't get into these traps.
@@lowpoul5552 These things are gateways to so much evil we cannot even imagine. It's crazy how the Shaytaan beautifies these things. I used to be a Kemetic/ African yoga instructor, was into the concept of African spirituality etc. Much like you I guess I was always scared of taking any type of drug as I always thought I would be the unlucky one who would die lol. I laugh now but I think Allah was protecting me. I look at some of the people I used to hang around with now. It's like my vision is clearer as they look like zombies. Always high and strung out on all kinds of vices in the name of "spirituality. I pray for their guidance.
@@Kamikaze_0088 These ppl were always taliking about Univers, energy.. Like instead of saying soul, they were talking about "energy" and instead of God they were saying the "Univers" gives this and that. Well it was nice meeting these ppl, they were nice and it was like living in the hippie era with them. The yoga broke me instead of make me feel better lol i was too rusty for them.
This brother seems to have made it via that path just fine. It may take some strong medicine to break the seal for some people.
The problem it seems is that the drug might become an idol itself leaving the user to spin in circles. But it does seem that people can make it out of the magical realm.
@@joefilter2923 Alhamdulilah, that's the beauty of Allah's Mercy. No matter where you've been or what path you have been upon, if Guidance is written for you it's yours. Islam is so rich because of this. I come from a family that are almost all completely substance dependent and from a community where sihr is a cultural practice and no harm is seen in it. You can be anyone and find Islam. Alhamdulilah
Damn im a muslim and this guys theology of all religions is so great specially Islam and more then me. He made me feel guilty.The way he explained our celestial bodies being tuned in with the universal law and how our prayer timing changes was so great also the way he explained the issues with Christianity and Judaism was excellent, every muslim should know that and be able to explain it like that. Everything he said was impressive. Our brother would definitely beat us in earning a higher Jannah. Even his recitation of Al-Fatiha was so great and amazing MaShaAllah and hes just 23 man hats off. I wish i can speak to him and my message reaches to him man. Allah definitely loves him greatly and i wish to see him become a great imaam of our time and a great sufi.❤️💯

How can I possibly get in touch with brother Alex. I have lost my little brother to Monism and New Age spirituality. I've tried for more than a year now to put sense into him and guide him back to the Truth but I failed miserably. Watching the video now, I feel a sense of hope. Brother Alex knows this New Age movement very well and could definitely understand where my brother is coming from and communicate with him in his own language. God says in the Quran: "Who is better in speech than one who calls to Allah, does righteous deeds and says indeed I am among the Muslims." If Brother Alex could do Dawah and help save my little brother's soul it would be a blessing and a gift from Allah. May Allah guide us all.
And thank you so much Eddie for all the work that you do! You are a true inspiration and blessing sent by God to all of us. May Allah reward you infinitely. Amin.

Does he know that dear Muslims have been deceived into believing that Islam is a true ABRAHAMIC FAITH? The only reason Muslims believe so comes from Allah's claim in QS 29:46 to be the true God YAHWEH (Exodus 3:14-15) of Israel whom the prophets and the New Testament repeatedly refer to, ironically, as 'FATHER' (Deuteronomy 32:6, Psalms 89:26-27, Isaiah 63:16, Matthew 6:9) and 'CREATOR'
People will perish because of lack of knowledge.
The fifth book of the LAW OF MOSES (Torah) makes reference to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as 'FATHER' and CREATOR .
Moses was addressing the rebellious Israelites when he said:
"Is this the way you repay the Lord, you foolish and unwise people? Is he not your FATHER, your CREATOR, who made you and formed you?" (Deuteronomy 32:6).
Yet Allah of the Qur’an, in no way, shape or form (spiritually, literally or metaphorically) is he FATHER to anyone (QS 6:100). There is no word like 'Allah-Abba' or 'Allah-father'" in Islam. Jesus prayed "Abba, Father". When Arabic-speaking Christians use the word Allah, it is usually used in combination with the word al-Ab. Allah al-Ab means “God the Father,” and this usage is one way Arab Christians differentiate their true God from the Islamic god of the Hajr e aswad (Black stone) and Kaaba.
QS 6:100 " .. And they falsely ascribe to Him sons and daughters without any knowledge. Glory be to Him. And He is far beyond and above all the things that they attribute (to Him)"
If you are honest, you have to accept that these two are not the same god: one is the FATHER and the other REJECTS the idea that he is the FATHER.
Yet this didn't stop Allah from openely lying to beloved Muslims by falsely claiming to be the God of Israel who is creator of the heavens, the earth, the seas and everything in them (Psalms 146:6):
QS 29:46. "...We believe in all that is revealed to us and in that which has been revealed to you, and our God and your God is One, and to Him we stand resigned."
Wow! If I were Muslim this would be a deal breaker! Allah's false claim is the biggest LIE in the history of mankind ever since Satan LIED to Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden!!
Beloved Muslim, why do you worship a god who steals the identity of another god? Why don't Muslims first ask us the people of the scriptures whether the 7th century god of the Kaaba is indeed our God as he claims?
The identity of Allah is really a mixing of and theft of the identities of other gods into one god. This is why those who heard of Muhammad’s god accused him QS 38:5. ‘Has he turned (the whole lot of) gods (we worshipped) into One God? Very strange indeed is this thing.’
In an attempt to deceive or forcibly convert Jews and Christians, the author of the Qur’an incoperated some stories about Adam, Abraham, Moses etc from Jewish scriptures and Jewish fairy tales (Talmud). Islam is a false Abrahamic faith.
The author of the Qur’an further blasphemed and corrupted (Al-Maidah 5:109-120) the true nature of Jesus as the eternal Word of God which became flesh (Isaiah 40:3-5, Malachi 3:1 and John 1:1,14) through using unbiblical stories about Jesus from WELL-KNOWN gnostic and heretical sources going around at that time such as the so-called "Infancy Gospel of Thomas", "The Gospel of Pseudo Mathew" (Unknown), and "The Second Treatise of the Great Seth".
Beloved Muslims are encouraged to reflect on this truth and ponder as to the real identity of this mysterious Allah of the Qur'an. It is crystal clear that this 7th century god is a deceiver who is not the creator taught by all the Prophets as 'Father' and Creator.
God has always been a God of sacrifice even from the first book of the Torah when he commanded Abraham to sacrifice his only son of the PROMISE (Isaac) Genesis 22:2.
This was later reflected in the yearly sacrifice of a SPOTLESS LAMB for the atonement of sins (Day of Atonement) which ALL the prophets of God participated in from the tabernacle of Moses to the temple of Solomon in Jerusalem. This ended with the Messiah offering his life as a sin offering (Isaiah 53)
However, the Kaaba was never designed for the sacrificial system commanded by the God of Israel-whom Allah falsely claims to be (QS 29:46). There is no proof whatsoever in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms that it was built by Abraham and Ishmael as claimed in QS 2:127 and QS 22:26-27! It's a big lie!
This is why Allah's atonement of sins in the pagan Kaaba [al-Tirmidhi, 959] was never through the sacrifice of a spotless lamb but was, and still is, through a pagan stone claimed to have "fallen from heaven" and was white but became black because of the sins of the sons of Adam (al-Tirmidhi 877).
Islam is a false Abrahamic faith. Allah is not YAHWEH.
Where do I find more content of him?
2. If he is not the God who is BOTH Father and Creator then who is this mysterious Allah of the Qur’an?
Can't a false god also claim to be the true God, Creator, all Merciful, Most Gracious etc? Could he be the best of all makereen (deceivers) perhaps?
"The great dragon (Satan) was hurled down-that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his ANGELS with him." (Revelation 12:9)
The mysterious ANGELIC creature which appeared to Muhammad in the cave of Hira never at any point revealed itself as the Angel Gabriel of the Bible. The angel had pressed Muhammad three times until he thought he was going to die. Muhammad's own testiment thought the angel was demonic.
(IBN Ishaq 106, al Tabari vol 6,7071).
It doesn't surprise us the people of the scriptures that one of Allah's 99 names is the MOST PROUD (Al-Mutakabbir), and calls on Muslims to do "RIGHTEOUS deeds" through the 5 pillars of Islam after the example of the SERVANT of Allah.
Wasn't Satan cast down to earth because he became PROUD on account of his beauty (Ezekiel 28:17)?
Muslims may wonder: could Satan and his SERVANTS really desguise themselves as agents of righteousness? Can Satan, who also desires the title of the true God ('the Most High') make people fast, give to charity, dress modestly, keep away from alcohol, premarital sex and worship him (idolatry) as the true God?
"And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an ANGEL of light. So it is no surprise if his SERVANTS, also, disguise themselves as servants of RIGHTEOUSNESS. Their end will correspond to their deeds."
2 Corinthians 11:14-15
Let him who has ears hears! Blessings.
What a smart lad he is! Alhamdulilah, intellectuals are a benefit to this deem, being widely read is something we are lacking in our midst. I love that he has knowledge on different philosophies. It makes us stronger
I delved into the new age myself back when I was lost and agnostic, and got into the world of "universal spirituality" and energies and what not. I can tell you with certainty that if you dive deep into psychedelics and the subconscious mind (become what they call a "psychonaut"), you will eventually encounter and communicate with the jinn, and ultimately find yourself driven into hermeticism, magic and the occult!
Ehh… I don’t believe it
I have a question, people testify that they are helped by these "entities" during their DMT trips. And many say that these trips changed their lives for better (such as healing depression). Some also encounter evil energies. If these entities are really the Jinn, then why would they help us. And what about the argument these are no more than hallucinations...
@@birdsongs482 Some are religious and some are not, some are good and some are evil. They are like us. Not all of them are shayateens. But we don't have the right to communicate with them.
@@birdsongs482 if you asked me this same question a few years back, I would"ve told you yes these "entities" are indeed benevolent and they do help people, and dmt did change my life and made me waaay more "spiritual" and in tune with my inner self, my surroundings and with the spiritual world!.....HOWEVER, these "entities" are usually not what they say they are. They just play the part and pretend to be benevolent and angelic, and give you good advice and wisdom and show you guidance...etc, to hook you in. Once you're hooked, they start to slowly reel you in, very slowly over a long period of time, several years in fact.
They'll start by showing you that you are one with the universe, then convince you that "all life is sacred" and you shouldn't eat animals or consume animal products or even their milk. Then move you on to hugging trees and worshipping celestial object and mother nature (her name is Gaia) Then move you on to thinking that God is the universe itself, and everything in the universe is a part of God, therefore you are also a god and the universe itself is obligated to obey your command, and all you have to do is believe and give your orders and the universe (or the vortex) will conspire to make your wishes come true, because you're a god remember?......It'll feel really amazing at first, and without you realizing, you'll find yourself deifying those "entities", and slowly but surely, you'll start paying respect and reverence to other, much older "entities" that people had been worshipping like Buddha (yes, they do appear to people pretending to be Buddha himself sometimes) or the hindu gods like krishna or shiva or kali...etc etc!.....They can be very alluring and even seductive!......Then, you go deeper, and find out you can actually evoke or summon those "entities" and have them help you or serve you through ritualistic meditation, and that's when you know you're already knee deep into magic and occultism!.....
BAM, their job is done, you're now a polytheist pagan hippie, who also deals in black magic!....job well done!
@GomezHector-qo9el no thank you, you can keep that trash to yourself. I'm back to Islam Alhamdulillah!
Aslamalakum this video I’ve just shared with my non Muslim friends who I always try to guide towards Islam thanks for these tools they are so useful real people telling the truth lots of love from the sake of Allah from Ireland 🇮🇪
Wow, our stories are similar! I too am Puerto Rican, raised by a single mom, used Ayahuasca and 5MeoDMT. I was even a practicing DMT facilitator.
In fact, on my TH-cam page, I have videos that I made after my 5meoDMT experiences as well as sharing my addiction with weed.
I’ll have to make another as I learn more on my path of Islam.
I was raised Catholic, then turned Christian, went to “spiritual / Jinn” route, even entertained Buddhism but I am finally back home. 🤲🏻
❤
His Arabic recitation was remarkable Alhamdulillah 👍💯.
MashaAllah, this was discussion had so much thoughtful insight. May Allah reward you both.
Yes brother. You are one of chosen human beings to get Allah's hidayah. Alhamdulillah..I am happy with you. Your recitation of Al-fatihah is so wonderful, brought me to tears of happiness.
What a bright, articulate and divinely inspired young man! It’s like the Truth runs thru his tongue so flawlessly. Faith is a gift from Allah! He gives it to whom so ever He wants! May Allah protect and increase our faith. Ameen.

Mashallah, I'm very impressed with this young brother and his journey to Islam. He's very well spoken. I'd love to follow his journey on the Truth but his name isn't mentioned anywhere in this video. Anyways, may Allah SWT continue to guide this sincere brother to the Truth and increase him in knowledge and wisdom, and allow him to be a beautiful light for our deen.
He named him at the end Alex Abdullah
I fully agree with you. Someone that speaks so eloquently with real experience in different stages and phases of his life and clearly is someone that has the ability to learn this quickly, we should see more of him. Did you already find him?
He probably did this on purpose so you would not look him up online, this guy is famous
One of the best and insightful interviews I have watched. Allah bless them both.
MashaAllah great show bro. My sincere dua for you and for so inspiring brother Alex. Blessed reverts are the most powerful inspiration for a born Muslim like me. JazakAllah o khairan kaseera
Masha Allah this brother is very articulate
Masha Allah Barakallahu Feekum, brother, May Allah bless and keep you steadfast in our religion Islam Ameen. JazakumAllah Khairan, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Amazing work, brother Eddie May Allah rewards you immensely and your family Ameen. Watching from California Orange county.
Beautiful... and only at 23 and a muslim since November, SubhanAllah. As a born Muslim, this truly humbles you.
Wow, Alex Abdullah... what an amazing character. One of the best talks I've heard...
Ma sha Allah! From South Sudan warmly welcoming you to the ummah.may Allah guide many more.Jazallkallahkum khairan mumen'neen wa mumen'aat
SubhanAllah! The Deen of Islam is growing and growing. The only true religion on the planet. People have nowhere else to go in terms of religion. Can't beat islam, it takes care of all of what you're looking for to live a righteous life. Quran and Sunnah, that's all we need. CONGRATS‼️ May الله keep you steadfast and your feet firm upon the deen! اللهم امين 🤍❤️
I'll recommend you to a store I got some of psychedelic products Lsd, edibles cannabis DMT,mushrooms XTC, Xanax, vape pen and they Also help out with newbies and they give great treat....

Very intelligent young man Tabarak ALLAH. May ALLAH increase him.
Subhanallah!!!! I share such a similar experience with this brother! May Allah continue to guide us! May the umma continue to increase in number and wisdom 💖
My dear son Alex may Allah swt give strength, courage , barakah and Khair in dunia and Akhira Ameen to stick to the path of lslam and spread the truth of lslam Ameen Ya Rabbul Alameen
I'm a Muslim. I know he has seen Jinns. Alhumdulillah, Brother made the Right decision.
Masyaallah, what a great experience this brother had 😊 May Allah SWT bless you both.
Masha Allah. What an incredible young man! Please start your own You Tube Channel, brother. You have so much to share with others. Looking froward to your social media presence.
This interview is very interesting, and it will give non-Muslim DMT enthusiasts / Joe Rogan fanboys a Muslim's view of the whole shebang.
Masha Allah Tabaraka ‘Allah May Allah increase his knowledge
What a gentleman i was born muslim raised as a muslim but see'ing him makes me wonder there is so many things to make myself better muslim, I wanna listen to him more masha allaah very young and still experienced and very humble
thank you Eddie thank you Alex lots to intellectually chew over, Alhamdullilah I have never found new ageism or new spirituality interesting so listening to Alex I learned a lot, everyday I thank Allah for Islam and the Quran He has sent to us.
Definitely will watch it again as a lot of good information- god bless you both and thank you
Love this. He is very informed MashAllah
non muslims who convert or revert have such an advantage in the fact that we were truly able to see BOTH sides of things and how it can with islam. as a former new - ager, (but never with psychedelics!!!) his perspective is very appreciated. this is why no one should judge anyone's journey. you never know what knowledge and wisdom they can acquire.
I took dmt, lsd, salvia, magic mushroom you name it when i was in highschool and i always see this elf like entity in my dmt trip, now that i became a practicing Muslim i am convinced psychedelic sort of like connects you to the world of Jinn. Allah knows best
Maybe, but I don't think so, because you don't have to do drugs to understand the unseen. How could it be that the only way to certain knowledge was haram?
In fact isn't Allah in control of all? If He wants to He can show you or grant you knowledge that you'd understand a little of the unseen. And I only talk of my experience, not what I read in a book.
Psychedelics in general are substances that are beneficial to man's health needs, shrooms, Lsd, Dmt, MDMA, etc when used properly eases depression. You can get it from the handle below..
They are on Instagram and Telegram
@@blakesimon5318 i dont think so, i know my friends who actually became schizophrenic because of lsd. He went to a mental hospital twice and he can barely recognize me anymore
What you saw perhaps was a jinn, but in a disguise. Humans cannot see them in their true forms, except the Prophets alayhim al-salam.
MashaAllah he is so well spoken. I hope he continues on the path of dawah. I advise my brother to come in contact with the three muslims, one of them has a similar back story as you. Would be a great hearing you talk.
No! don't make him into an internet idol, Subhana Allah, he is still new in his Iman. Don't give Shaytaan such a weapon with which to trip him up.
Why would you put him to that kind of test?
Very interesting conversation. May Allah SWT bless him and brother Edi
Salam, does the brother have a twitter account or something like that? I was very impressed with the whole dialogue and his analysis of things. Alhamdulillah
did you find his twitter or socials? Im looking for it as well!
@@Thallavisie I never did… did you?
He is Mashallah very understanding of different aspect of life and the situation around him. I am so happy for him and proud of him. May Allah ST help him to help youth and young Muslims and humanity as a whole. I see Mashallah he is capable of being a guide. May Allah ST safe you for harms.
Watching these videos, I feel proud of being a Muslim and proud of my Arabic language. Thanks to Allah for these blessings!
SubhanAllah. May Allah, the most omnipotent, reward brother Alex Abdullah and grant him the highest ranks in Jannah. MashaAllah.
😭
Watching the muallaf reciting Quran always make me cry..
They very genuine and truthfull..
May Allah stengthen him and also us all..
Aameen.. 😭
Really amazing interview and very impressed with the wisdom Allah has blessed him with. Alhumdulillah brother ! May Allah continue to guide and may you be a great channel by which so many people will come to know and submit to our great creator. I'm from el salvador and it's a delight to see Latinos coming to islam. Allah akbar!!
Inspiring indeed. Alhamdullilah.
You can see this brother is very special and highly intelligent. Allah Humma Barik.
Subhanallah!! This brother's thought process is impress at 23!!!! I was nowhere near this intellectual maturity at that age.
I did ayahuasca an it made me become Muslim 👳🏿 the experience.. Alhamdulillah
during an experience, i pulled out the quran and then prayed.. and all the chaos of my visions turned to perfect geometric art..it was beautiful and very divine... it was then i realized that islamic "sacred" geometric art came from the unseen world. it was also revealed to me through that experience, that whatever the muslims were doing was on the right path..during these experiences i found that it brought a strenght and foundation to recite quranic verses..i am being lead to believe (without any evidence at the moment) that in the past there were muslim shah-mans that guided people through ayahuasca experiences (or equivalent DMT enethogens) for exorcisms and this truth is being covered up.
Off topic, i like the setup. It doesn't need to be always fancy and luxurious. Just simple and functional!👍
Agree
That's one of the Miracles of the Quran, it's Amazing how quickly you can learn Arabic and it's literature it astounds me every time. Great video thankyou.
I love you Deen Show
من أراد الهدية، يطلب من الله.. والله يهديه. و هذا معنى أن الله يهدي من يشاء ويضل من يشاء.. Amazing interview
the brother is super intelligent Alhamdulillah may Allah accept all his Duas thanks brother Eddie
I can recommend you to this psyc specialist where I get my stuffs from..

Ma Shaa Allah Tabarakaallah.
Allah guides who he wills.
Mashallah. Brother did a great job explaining. This needs to be shared so more youth can listen to this.
I Took Shrooms And It Brought Me Closer To Islam And Made Me Learn To Pray Correctly And Make Salat.
I've been a fan of the Deen show ever since I was a kid. Glad to see it's still going strong Alhamdulillah ❤
May Allah bless you both with more happiness and more success ❤❤❤
