+Marcos I just want you to know. The LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST will return the 2nd time to destroy ISLAM. JESUS is a ZIONIST. Here, read the PROPHECY of the 2nd coming of the LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST, ZECHARIAH 14:1 A day of the Lord is coming, Jerusalem, when your possessions will be plundered and divided up within your very walls. 2 I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it; the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city. 3 Then the Lord will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights on a day of battle. 4 On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south. This is what Christ followers think will happen. They will DIVIDE Jerusalem. One state for Palestinian. One state for Israel. Once Palestinian get their side. Other Arabs will support them and build their military. From there, they will take the rest of Jerusalem as well as remaining land of Israel. Then, the beginning of Prophet Zechariah prophecy.
I truly respect your approach to such complex theological questions . I am a Muslim , and listening to the religious Jewish scholars makes me feel closer to a people that politics made us feel very different from us . The one God brings us closer .
The verse describes the end times. You "WILL" find the Jews and the Idolators most hostile. A time when Jews, Hindus and trinitarian Christians will be most hostile towards you, that is NATO. The surah 5 also states that those among you who will make alliance with these Jews these Idolators these Christians will not be considered among you, that is Turkey (NATO member). However, one particular sect among the Christians which will be most affectionate towards the Muslims (those who are not arrogant Christians) is the Orthodox Church i.e Russia. Thank you v much for reading.
@@stephenbermingham6554 : I think the Jews got is it all wrong regarding the Messiah. They probably believed that the Messiah would be a Jewish king who would free them from their non-Jewish rulers. In 586 BC the Jews came under the rule of the Babylonians, in 540 BC under the Persians in 320 BC or thereabout under the Greeks, in 160BC or there about under the Romans. Herod in around 03 AD got all the male babies of the Jews killed and Jesus said His kingdom was not of this world and from the Scripture we learn His mission was to free the Jewish people from the bondage of Mosaic laws that had outlived their utility. But most of the Jews rejected Jesus. In the parable of the Wedding Feast, Jesus said the Kingdom of God will be taken away from the Jews and will be given to a people who will bear abundant fruit. Non-Jewish people in countries like Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, Austria, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand etc. accepted Jesus' teaching of love, forgiveness and non-violence and have established peaceful communities while Jews who rejected Jesus and instead believed in the eye for an eye law of Moses face violence and war almost on a daily basis. After the Romans the Jews came under the rule of Byzantines, next the Turks and finally the British following the Second World War. Yet the Messiah they hoped for did not come. Since 1948 AD, the Jews are a free state. They are their own rulers. So where is the need for the Messiah who will deliver them from their rulers?
Islam has been turned into a political ideology and you can thank islamists for that. When Avraham died, ishmael accepted that Itzhak got the inheritance to continue Avraham's work... same in the end days. Arabs will accept that G-d returned Jews to their endigenous land and will eventually build the Temple on the Temple Mount. The Temple on Temple mount is part of the end of days and a requirement by G-d. So weather arabs/Muslims like it or not, but they will accept that. How that will happen, you can ask G-d, but it will happen. Jewish scripture, from which qoran and islam was copied, already foretold that in the end of days arabs will give jews trouble in the land, but in the end, at the times of Moshiach, arabs will accept that the covenant of the Torah between G-d and people of the tribes of Israel is eternal and still active.
@@savtamarlene He was right about the christian inquistion though. The jews were expelled from jerusalem because of the romans. Under islamic rule many of them managed to returned back.
@@zebimicio5204 Jews were also expelled from Spain by christians and they found ottoman empire as safe heaven. During the Holocaust, Turkey save d the life of thousand of jews. Even Einstein wrote appreciation letter to Turkey for saving jews
Rabbi I seriously appreciate you mentioning that the Quran is not meant for for recreational reading. The studying of the Quran is a complex matter, the understanding of the arabic language is a prerequisite, the importance of the situational context and the reason for revelation as exegeses explain must be researched and understood
May Allah protect you and bless you with long healthy life. Please continue the good work.we need people like you in every religion so that knowledge and love is spread among people.
when i listen to Rabi i really start to believe there is almost no differnce in both muslims and jews. God bless you Rabi. world needs more people like you. i also want to say that Quran also praises jews at many places and promises their place in paradise if they only believe in Allah alone and create no mischieve in the land.
@@barbarathomas9534 I believe you and the quality of Tovia says alot about his family, heritage and surrounding. Unfortunately in middle East there this huge misunderstanding due to the conflict in the Holy land.
If the muslims will just accept the right of the Jews to be in their homeland governing themselves and leave these people alone, everyone in the Middle East will benefit. But the muslims do not accept Jews as Jews governing themselves on their tiny little strip of dry, resource poor land.And what are the muslims getting for that? Look how their societies are falling apart. Look how they kill each other. Look how the muslim lands - the rulers don't care if their people drink polluted water. The muslim/arab world is self-destructing. And Israel? It is the eighth power in the world, the leader in technology and innovation in every field and now the arabs are coming to Israel to solve their problems. You say misunderstanding. I say that the arabs/muslims are raised on hatred and really, it is making Israel stronger and eating up the arab muslims alive.@@yeslamo
Israelis are not full of hate. Israel graduates more arab phds and master's degree holders than all of the arab world combined. The arab Christians in Israel have the highest educational levels and per capita income, not the Jews in Israel. Arab citizens in Israel vote and have reps in parliament. Have you been there? Do you know?@MO MO
@MO MO the Palestinian dna shows arabian peninsula dna, you know the invaders from the 7th century. The Jewish dna, Ashkenazi, Sephardi Mizrahi shows from 85% -100% levant, Canaanite dna - in other words Israel. They have the 2500 year old Samaritan community, right. They are Jews. Lived in Hebron since biblical times. Their dna matches the Jews dna, but not the Palestinian dna - why do you muslims lie about history. 12 times in your koran it says allah gave the children of Israel the land of Israel forever and ever and they will return. Ottoman empire records 1880 - majority jewish in Israel and Jerusalem. These are facts.
Salam to our favorite cousin from off the Jewish People Rabbi Tovia Singer. I learn so much from you. so incredibly intelligent you are Rabbi. you are a kind soul and May Allah Bless you!

I have come to you, to attest the Law which was before me. And to make lawful to you part of what was (before) forbidden to you; I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. So fear Allah, and obey me." (Quran 3:50) The Quran also acknowledges that divine message has been sent to all in all languages and the Quran affirms the continuity of the divine message. "O ye People of the Book! believe in what We have (now) revealed, confirming what was (already) with you, before We change the face and fame of some (of you) beyond all recognition, and turn them hind wards, or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath-breakers, for the decision of Allah Must be carried out." (Quran 4:47) The same religion He has established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah - the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that you should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than Allah, hard is the (way) to which you call them. Allah chooses to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him). (Quran 42:13)
Watching Rabbis like this guy who is being neutral and not imposing some opinion that has to do with politics makes me feel that there is a hope in humanity. god bless you
Excellent teaching!!! Please translate them into Spanish also. Many many people have to know all this.. Thanks to open our eyes and learn about all this interesting themes. Shalom from Peru.
What Rabbi mentioned about Quran at 15:30 is very true. There are also so many verses praising Jews in Quran. Examples can be (2-47 O Children of Israel! Remember My favor which I bestowed upon you, and that I favored you over all nations) and many more.
Rabbi, I am completely hooked on your videos. You’re teaching me so much of what I need to know. I am a Muslim woman who definitely trends in a 12er Shia direction, but I’m a Sufi. I practice Sufi Islam. I have so much love for Judaism and for the Jewish people. I always have. Like you, I pray for peace in the holy land. I’m just taking in your teachings now. I need to absorb what I’m hearing. Finding your channel has been a very important development in my life. I love you brother. 🕋💋✡️
Salam Sister, I am a Sunni Muslim. I humble request to you to research on Sunni Muslim. Stick with Quran and hadith. Stick with the Kalema. You can listen to Sheikh Qasir Qadhi lecture.
Thank you Rabbi, I really enjoy your videos You are the first person that understand Islam as it should be and explanation about Judaism, Christianity is very interesting, thanks God that their is people like you ,
Nice reply.. Dear Rabbi is correct regarding this verse. Muslims also need to understand the children of israel are very dear to us... They are the children of our father Ibrahim alay salam. Each day we send peace and blessings on the family of Ibrahim so that includes all the children of israel. Yes there are good and bad sheep in each nation.
@Ricky Reynaldi: Your ignorance is on display! Do some ACTUAL research and learn what the word "Zionist" means!! You don't appear to have a single clue about Jews or Zionists!!!
Love your work brother Tovia. I just want to say the Qur'an is not vulnerable but people are vulnerable to the whispers of the shaytans. Whether it's the Qur'an, the Bible, new testement, and even Huckleberry Finn, they can all be used to do to anything that encompasses evil if used with that intent. Peace.
The only key to paradise is : "La Ilaha Il Allah, Muhammadur Rasool Allah". Meaning, there is no God but Allah and the holy and pure Prophet Muhammad-e-Mustafa (SAW) is Allah's Messenger. This applies to all people, including Jews.
We don’t need Mohammed’s prophecy - he never claimed to be a prophet to the children of israel - but he did say , correctly, that the Torah is true, that Jews must serve gd by keeping the Torah , and that the children of Israel will return to the land of israel at the end of days - “ in a mixed multitude “
@@mosheg112 I've got news for you, Muhammad did indeed claim to be a prophet to ALL manking INCLUDING the children of Israel. The Qur'an adresses the ISRAELITES directly throughout the whole narrative. I advise you to read the Qur'an from cover to cover and take heed in its warnings and rejoice in the glad tidings it gives. Peace
@@usamawaked6388 addressing the Israelites throughout the whole narrative is not being their prophet. Mohammed correctly asserts that the children of israel have the Torah and its teachings and it’s Rabbis - jurists that judge according to the Torah - Mohammed does not say anywhere that Jews must follow him or change the laws of the Torah because of him. Actually , there is proof from the Qu’ran that every Muslim must follow all the Jewish kosher laws. Mohammed says that Jews can eat in the homes of Muslims and visa versa…This clearly shows that all Muslims must seperate milk and meat and camel meat or milk is forbidden etc… also Muslims must keep all the kosher for Passover laws. I believe that Islam can be a kosher noahite religion serving the one true god - unfortunately there are many who rely on unreliable Hadiths calling for the murder of Jews and this is quite contrary to the qu’ran and Islam the way it’s written in the Quran
@@mosheg112 Brother Moshe, I assure you that Muhammad did claim to be a prophet for mankind and INCLUDING the children of Israel and the Qur'an asserts that you should follow the Qur'an and Muhammad. Don't take my word for it, read the Qur'an for yourself and see what it has to say to you. It makes the claim that Muhammad is prophesied in your own scriptures and that you should follow him for Allah has decreed Islam to be the religion to be followed by ALL manking and the Qur'an to be the final revelation to all humanity. Peace
Wish Jews and Muslims get their heads together like they did in Andaluce, com'on people stop fighting and let's get on peacefully, we could do miracles together.
You are right. If only t he muslim people would accept a few million Jewish people governing themselves on a dry postage stamp of land, Israel, then there could be peace.
robbi all my respect as a muslim i didn't know the meaning of this verse, you open my eyes thank you very much may god give long life so we can keep learn from you.
Great respect for u sir. i m muslim, name hussain. pray that someday soon we muslim and jews will again live in peace and love. And i agree quran and hadith are vulnerable
the qur'aan expects the jews to leave their torah and recognise the prophet muhammad (pbuh) as a legitimate messenger and the seal of all messengers. it isn't sufficient for the jews and christians to continue adhering to their torah/gospels and reject islam having heard its message. i have deep respect for you rabbi, but this is a truth that all must know.
we only say to you that the prophet in deuteronomy who god will _require_ of you is indeed the prophet of islam. isaiah 42 further clarifies this. peace to you.
God commanded Moses to make war on certain infidels and in the case of Jesus, God did not order Jesus to make war on anyone. Moses and Jesus obeyed the Will of God.
There isn't a single verse in the Quran that says Jews must leave the Torah or that Christians must leave the gospel teachings of Jesus. On the contrary, the Quran expects the Jews to follow the Torah: 5:43"How can they come to you for judgment when they already have the Torah which contains the decree of God! It does not take them long to disregard your judgment; they are not true believers." 5:44 " We had revealed the Torah, containing guidance and light. The Prophets who had submitted themselves to the will of God, judged the Jews by the laws of the Torah. So did the godly people and the Jewish scholars who remembered some parts of the Book of God and bore witness to it. Mankind, do not be afraid of people but have fear of Me. Do not sell My revelations for a paltry price. Those who do not judge by the laws of God are disbelievers." Christians are expected to follow the Gospel teachings. 5:46 "And We sent, following in their footsteps, Jesus son of Mary, confirming the Torah before him and We gave to him the Gospel, wherein is guidance and light, and confirming the Torah before it, as a guidance and an admonition unto the God-fearing." 2:62 "Verily! Those who believe and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day and do righteous good deeds shall have their reward with their Lord, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve." Allah doesn't contradict Himself.
Quran is not difficult to understand nor vulnerable. As you had oral law, we have hadith and many many of those are well preserved. I believe you know that much better than me. And those are enough to understand Quran in context. But if some hypocrite come and claim something weird about Quran without studying it, that wont make Quran vulnerable, we can show them context. So it depends on them if they believe or not. . I have respect for you. I love your explanations. Very informative too.
Behind each verse in the quran has their own background story. And to understand the point of the story, we need to know history and the circumstances within the society. Not including words or popular jargon during that time period. Poetry etc.
Thank you Rabbi . Amazingly - and thanks to Dr. Mohammad Shahrour's method of modern reading of the word of Allah in which there should not be Synonyms (there is a reason why God would use a specific word) - the answer to your question at 7:06 , which can be frequently raised when studying religious text , is found in the Quran itself (see Quran Surat Aal-i-Imraan from 1 to 9...but specifically 7 ..its like WOAH!!..a verse in the book describing how to read the book..like a quick start guide or something) . The question of whether an instruction or any "point" made in the Quran is made for a specific time and place "moment" for us to conclude the lessons from it according to our time and/or place or it being a universal law , is the question of understanding the difference between "Nabi -Prophet" and "Rasool - Messenger" and how the prophet Mohammad PBUH had a position as a Man , a Rasool and A Nabi and the differences will make any human get goosebumps once understood , because it is almost like explaining human behavior that we all relate to , but via Allah's final messenger the one with no single miracle expect for a finite amount of Ayyat (verses) that we the followers of Muhammad PBUH believe are miracles , once reading the text again with this taken into account following the guide carefully the experience becomes something different because the word of God does not fail to be relevant in the heart of the believer. Please see what Dr. Mohammad Shahrour says about Islam vs Iman if you haven't already as it is the "Muhammad" way of accepting Jews and Christians as well as all believers of Al Tawheed (One) outside of the Abraham faith (Al Haneefiyya الحنيفية) in addition to no believers at all . Thank you Sir..Bless
I love your lectures. I have a lot of questions I would like to ask you. I am not a Sure where to start. But thanks allot for clearing a lot of things about christianity Judaism for me
This rabbi is a man of truth, its 100% the other way around today though, Christians hate Islam with every inch of thier idolatrous soul whereas Jews and Muslims can live together with love with the belief in la ilaha il Allah. Worshiping the one and only God of Abraham ... AND HES NOT A TRINITY.
The rabbi is smart here is the verse “Verily, you will find the strongest among men in enmity to the believers (Muslims) the Jews, and those who are Al-Mushrikun, and you will find the nearest in love to the believers (Muslims) those who say: "We are Christians." That is because amongst them are priests and monks, and they are not proud.” (Al Quran# 5:82).
Adam Dilem If you had bothered to read the context, the very NEXT VERSE shows you the conclusion of people that "lie to promote God" *Romans 3:8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.* Read the last four words over and over until you get it.... And also take note of Jesus: *1 Peter **2:22** Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:* Christianity hasn't changed we have thousands of manuscripts... if individuals have lusts and they twist Scriptures to fit their sinful lifestyle that has no bearing on the Holy Bible, or the message of Jesus, who said of himself he is the Way and to follow him, and he never told even one lie.
Adam Dilem It's not a "confession" by Paul lol, he is making an example of what others say... it's right there clear just read it!!! And then says there is a just damnation who did this crime. If Paul is forever an enemy of Christ, do tell me why the apostle Peter confirmed him: *2 Peter **3:15** And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;* You really think a Christian won't take Peter seriously? Who is better to judge a true Christian message? "Enemy of the 12 apostles" you say.... why have you not read? I am Unitarian Christian I reject the Trinity, Jesus is the Son of God begotten divinely, he is Gods first ever creation. As Jesus said he came from Heaven and incarnated into a mortal body. So you have nothing to say to me about idolatry whatsoever. Also... the West isn't a "Christian" nation, it is infidel government, we loathe what they are promoting in our countries. *1 Peter **1:18**-19 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:* ^You see? It is not "Paul" that made up the dying for sins thing. In Jesus own words, in perfect clarity: *Matthew **26:28** For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.*
+Mr tee thank God that we all love Jesus and we should follow him and do what he did circumcised, no swine, no alcohol and fell face down prayed to God as mentioned in the Bible. Jesus never claim divinity or asked people to worship him. Jesus warned all people who call him God in clear statement Matthew 7: 22 Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly,‘I never knew you; depart from Me, youworkers of lawlessness.’
@ToviaSinger One thing I should point out to you, the Quran itself claims to be a book of very precise words, but is a test for those who seek discord and division, because their hearts are already in flaw 3:7 , It is made for both types of people to test. Soley to test. That changes the perspective of the book completely for me.
Rabbi i hope you take this in consideration there is a significant explanation of this verse done by a Moroccan Muslim philosopher and thinker his name is Muhammad Abed Al Jabiri , he passed a way just before few years , he says the Christians who the verse is referring to are not the trinitarian Christians , the verse is referring to monotheistic Unitarian early Christians called Ebionites . Ebionites were originally Jews who accepted Jesus as the messiah of the Jewish people but they did not give him any divine attributes and viewed him as a messenger and servant of of God almighty , thats exactly what the Muslims actually believe , furthermore the ebionites lived a very simple life where they isolated themselves from the surroundings and dedicated all their time for worship , lets not forget that the trinitarian Christians persecuted the Ebionites and accused them of heresy. so the christian Ebionites who were monotheistic Unitarians , who accepted Jesus as the servant and messenger of Almighty God and the messiah of the Jewish people , who kept the law of Moses are more close to us than Jews as the verse is telling
I am really stunned with Rabbi's speech. speak totally with full evidence is his quality, May Our Almighty give hin strength to promote truth to this world
The Quran is not vulnerable. However, people are vulnerable especially when studying the Quran on their own. That is why you need a qualified teacher to explain it to you and so that you don't interpret it your self based your desiers. This was a good talk and i benefited from it. Thank you
Your explanation of Holy Qur’a:n is better that many so called Muslims. You accept hermeneutic interpretations and do not accept literalism. I appreciate your deep study of Tafs:r and the science of Interpretation.
The Jews who follow the Torah and true to their religion are the best and they have pure soul unlike Christians who deviated and created new religion of their own rather than following the message prophet Issa was trying to convey to them which was worship the one only god like what Prophet Moses and our last Prophet Muhammad did. Bless all
i am muslim but I truly truly admire your knowledge about islam and you are right the context is very important. i wish people like David wood would listen to you and learn a bit from you. Instead on focusing on creating a hostility between the christians and the muslims.
very fair Rabbi and honest I agree with him a Million% very knowledgeable Rabbi. I am a muslim and yes when we read the Quran we know this was not referred to the jews at all times but at the time of the prophet also christianity at that same time which is the time of Prophet Muhammad there was many good christian monks and priests vs the Jews who had decided to fight the prophet and to set the unbeliever Arabs against these christians priests still didn't believe that Jesus was God but a servant of God or in better word a prophet who is serving God, like Jesus had said in the Bible "I am the servant of God" "God is Making miracles on my hands" "God is greater than I"
Not all Jews, not all Christians as well. See the context, who are those Christians mentioned in this channel title? Ar Rum: The Rum have been defeated In the NEAREST land. But they, after their defeat, will overcome. The nearest land, means christian part in east rather than west, right? They are orthodox, not the roman one. Are they different? Yes refers to Qur'an. When muslims ran away from mushreek Quraish, they went to Abyssinia (Ethiopia), they were Orthodox Christians. Crusades were launched by West Roman Christian wars, not Orthodox wars. Am I correct? Now, who are the Jews more hostile than Christians? They are who makes allies with West Christians, who own USA, FedRes, IMF, WB, and Nato. They who plan New World Order. We call them Zionist. Jews who are not part of that ally, are not hostile Jews as Qur'an points out. What about are muslims who join that ally? Al Maidah: And We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and DO NOT FOLLOW their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. To each of you We prescribed a law and a method. Had Allah willed, He would have made you one NATION/ ORDER [united in religion/ path/ way of life/ order], but [No, He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so race to [all that is] good. To Allah is your return all together, and He will [then] inform you concerning that over which you used to differ. .. ..... O you who have believed, DO NOT TAKE the Jews and the Christians as allies, WHICH they are ALLIES of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you - then indeed, he is [ONE/ PART] of them. Indeed, Allah guides NOT the WRONGDOING (Zalim) people. ......... Muslims who join that ally then Qur'an says they are Wrongdoers, THEY ARE part of Imperialist Zionist who has agenda to make all people in ONE ORDER, see the verses above, "he is [ONE/ PART] of them".. So, Qur'an some times talks groups (states or countries or parties), rather than personal matter.
Rabbi much love to you! the Quran is 100% revealed by the angel Gabriel the way it is 114 surah in total confirmed by the Prophet (PBUH) error free,100% preserved and the same order of chapters from our God and yours
Interesting!! Your explanation is rational and well organized. It make sense to me. Because I'm from Yemen "South" and as I have been told by my father that Jewish were living peaceful until the British forced them to move to 🇵🇸 but the Yemeni Jewish in the north didn't move because they had a choice and they didn't trust the western (Jewish & Christian) . But when Israel was announced things have changed. Now majority of muslims may not have a problem with all Jewish but definitely they do have a problem with Israeli "Zionist" and I belive the majority of Jewish have problems with Muslims. I'm not agreeing with this but it's the reality. May good lead you to the right direction 🙏
Quran does not generalize, it Defines the believer is the one who believes in 1- the day after and 2- Does good in his life. Believe only is insufficient to be saved niether doing good w/o believe.
Firstly I would like to say that I appreciate this kind of dialogue from our Jewish brethren. It is very much needed, in my opinion, especially seeing the problems that there are today between Muslims and Jews. I appreciate the honesty and the forthcoming attitude. And everything said was true. Its true, Muslims fortunately and unfortunately have a text which is complex and without proper study, yes, you DO get idiots like ISIS (may Allah destroy all who misuse His words and commands for their own greed and desires) and this kind of open hearted dialogue and understanding is what I pray Muslims and Jews will be able to achieve together in the future. Its important to have someone who will be honest and tell it straight when it's needed. Thank you for that. May Allah guide us all, keep us on the Truth and may He raise us all together under His shade and mercy in the hereafter. Ameen.
They are not all the same; among the People of the Scripture is a community standing [in obedience], reflecting and reciting the signs of God during periods of the night and they submit. They believe in God and Accountability; they enjoin what is right, and forbid what is wrong; and they hasten (in emulation) in (all) good works: These are the reformists! Quran, 3:113-114
Salam Rabbi/Iman, In a time where politicians are trying to pit people against one another, we need your intellect and wisdom to bring people back to the Abrahamic faith , to be a Mohideen. Your words carry more power than any politicians
I reverted from Christianity 8 years ago the Quran taught me a lot, I've been doing my Torah study the prayer direction is different in Islam than Judaism, I'm captivated by the sun and the sky when it changes I read it's not good to pray east because of this,
Yes it's a sign of end times, it's known today as the zionist alliance. but that does not mean all jews or all christians, only those who support the zionist alliance.
Shalom: שלום Peace; (desire for peace and well-being) Wisdom, Humility, Love, Freedom, Obedience, Mercy. Or all this when we live in ourselves, we transmit it in the form of peace. There are verses in the Torah, in the Bible, and in the Quran that say "When the believers come to you, say 'greetings to them'. Similarities between the scriptures, the Torah, the Bible and the Koran. Original Source: God of Abraham, the friend of God! Torah / Genesis 43:23 "Peace be with you" .................. I really enjoy your Rabbi videos. And I can swear that many Islamic scholars do not know the Quran as much as you do. Since I do not know English, I translate into Turkish from the translation button under the video, but the translation quality is not very good. I would be very happy if you could make technical improvements in this regard. .................. Shabbir Ahmed The Book of Life the Quran 3:7 (The Book He has sent down bears an important Principle.) He it is Who has revealed to you (O Prophet) the Scripture. In it some verses are Literal, while some verses are Allegorical. The verses that pertain to Permanent Values have been presented literally. These verses, MUHKAMAT, are the Essence of the Divine Law. On the other hand, abstract phenomena, historical events, and the World of the Unseen are described in similes, metaphors and allegories for your understanding (MUTASHABIHAT). But those who are given to crookedness in their hearts pursue the allegories and try to give them literal meanings, thus creating dissension. None knows their final meaning (of such as the Essence of God, His Throne, His Book of Decree, the Eternity) but God. Those who are well founded in knowledge understand why the allegories have been used and they keep drawing lessons from them (74:31). They proclaim the belief that the entire Book is from their Lord. As the human knowledge evolves, many of the other allegories will unfold their literal meaning (41:53). But only the men and women of understanding will bear this fact in mind. (Each of the verses in the Qur'an is MUHKAM, Absolute Truth and you can understand which ones are to be taken literally and which ones are to be taken allegorically, by the context (11:1), (47:20). And each verse in the Book complements the other (39:23)
Remember, my co-religionists, that on account of the vast number of our sins, God has hurled us in the midst of this people, the Arabs, who have persecuted us severely, and passed baneful and discriminatory legislation against us, as Scripture has forewarned us, "Our enemies themselves shall judge us" (Deuteronomy 32:31). Never did a nation molest, degrade, debase and hate us as much as they. Therefore when David, of blessed memory, inspired by the holy spirit, envisaged the future tribulations of Israel, he bewailed and lamented their lot only in the Kingdom of Ishmael, and prayed in their behalf, for their deliverance, as is implied in the verse, "Woe is me, that I sojourn with Meschech, that I dwell beside the tents of Kedar." (Psalms 120:5). Note the distinction between Kedar and the children of Ishmael, for the Madman and imbecile is of the lineage of the children of Kedar as they readily admit. Daniel alludes only to our humiliation and degradation "like the dust in threshing" suffered at the hands of the Arabs, may they speedily be vanquished, when he says, "And some of the host and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and trampled upon them." (8:10). Although we were dishonored by them beyond human endurance, and had to put with their fabrications, yet we behaved like him who is depicted by the inspired writer, "But I am as a deaf man, I hear not, and I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth." (Psalms 38:14). Similarly our sages instructed us to bear the prevarications and preposterousness of Ishmael in silence. They found a cryptic allusion for this attitude in the names of his sons "Mishma, Dumah, and Massa" (Genesis 25:14), which was interpreted to mean, "Listen, be silent, and endure." (Targum Pseudo-Jonathan, ad locum). We have acquiesced, both old and young, to inure ourselves to humiliation, as Isaiah instructed us "I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair." (50:6). All this notwithstanding, we do not escape this continued maltreatment which well nigh crushes us. No matter how much we suffer and elect to remain at peace with them, they stir up strife and sedition, as David predicted, "I am all peace, but when I speak, they are for war." (Psalms 120:7). If, therefore, we start trouble and claim power from them absurdly and preposterously we certainly give ourselves up to destruction. I shall now narrate to you succinctly several episodes subsequent to the rise of the Arabic kingdom from which you will derive some benefit.19 One of these refers to the Exodus of a multitude of Jews, numbering hundred of thousands, from the East beyond Ispahan, led by an individual who pretended to be the Messiah. They were accoutered with military equipment, and drawn swords, and slew all those that
Surah Al Maidah came down at the end of the Prophet Muhammad SAW's prophethood, there's in Medina, so that every verse that came down relates to events that occurred at that time, one of which was a conspiracy between a group of Jews and Arab pagans to betray the agreement that had been agreed with the Muslims, or The incident occurred when a group of Muslims finally had to ask leaders of Christian for a safe place to avoid being killed by Arab pagans, so there were many Christians who converted to Islam because they heard the verses of Quran being read. I was really amazed by Rabbi Tovia's knowledge in answering this question... which most Muslims don't necessarily understand.
Regarding the point that the Quran is incohesive and therefore vulnerable to negative interpretation, Quran sees it as a matter of cohesiveness and design to test the hearts : It is He who has sent down to you, [O Muhammad], the Book; in it are verses [that are] precise - they are the foundation of the Book - and others unspecific. As for those in whose hearts is deviation [from truth], they will follow that of it which is unspecific, seeking discord and seeking an interpretation [suitable to them]. And no one knows its [true] interpretation except Allah . But those firm in knowledge say, "We believe in it. All [of it] is from our Lord." And no one will be reminded except those of understanding. 3.7 Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did Allah intend by this as an example?" He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient, 2;26

Shalom aleichem Rabbi. Your way of conveying the word of the creator helped me alot. It was a major factor for me to leave Christianity (Jehovah Withness). Is there anyway I could send you a private message? I would like some clearification on the concept of the immortallity of the soul, and the resurrection of the death. Especially the hebrew that is used in genesis (creation of Adam), and Ecclesiastes 9:3-10.
I cannot answer for Rav Tovia, but what is your specific question? Resurrection is a keystone belief of all religious Jews, mentioned many many times in the Hebrew bible, and we repeat our belief three times daily in our prayers. Rambam lists it as one of the key beliefs of all Jews in his list of thirteen articles of faith. www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/332555/jewish/Maimonides-13-Principles-of-Faith.htm All the details of the resurrection at the end of days are not known yet, however there is a mention in Ezekiel 37 which is called the dry bones passage. These people fell dead according to our oral teachings, during the period of rebellion early on in the desert, and the people were told by Moses that they were not to go up against their enemies, but rather wait since they had shown disobedience to God. Ignoring all warning, they went up anyway and were slaughtered by the enemy. These were the bones which were resurrected, and one of the rabbis in the Talmud claimed to have been descended from these people. As for the nature of 'soul' - that is an English translation. The Hebrew words used for the life of man is either NEFESH HAYIM or NESHUMAH. Nefesh comes from the root that means 'to rest or stop.' That poses the next question, 'what comes to stop in a nefesh hayim?' Obviously that part of the breath of God which resides in the body of a man. The Torah tells us that Hashem breathed into the form He created, and the man became a nefesh hayim - a living soul. So the Greek word seems more close to the Hebrew, in that it refers to breath [ spirit ]. What is apparent is that the Torah teaches that God created mankind, male and female. First He formed the body from the earth, and then He breathed a living spiritual essence, which is called by various names in other languages. The point is that God gives that spiritual essence and then takes it away when people die, and that spiritual identity is judged after death. So the separation of that specially created breath of God and the body is difficult for those of little faith, and we pray that our attachment will be for God and His teachings [Torah] and that He will grant us an easy passing away, like that of Aharon and Moshe. In the messianic age, there will be a general resurrection of the faithful dead, and each spiritual being will be reconnected to its human form again, and then all wounds will be healed. This is suggested in one of the Psalms that we read on the Sabbath. The messianic age will last for a few hundred years, until the sixth millennium ends and we will begin the seventh millennium. The current Hebrew year is 5777. Do the math, and compare it to the Exodus from Egypt, which the rabbis say received a 210 year shortcut since the count of 400 years started with Isaac, and not from the going down to Egypt of Yosef and his brothers. So if that same 'discount' applies today, then we could see the messianic age rather shortly. Ezekiel 38, 39 discuss the war or wars of Gog and Magog, and how the rebellious coalition of the nations will be defeated when God decides to show the world His open might and power. He has been sending warning events to encourage repentance but many nations have not paid any serious attention, or continue to rebel even if they know they are wrong. So Persia will start the final war with a first attack. They are specifically mentioned. I am sure that eventually you will get a response from Rav Tovia Singer, but I wanted to see if I could be of any help meanwhile, so that you would not feel left out in the cold. God promises us that those who are faithful to Him and who keep His teachings and His commandments will be rewarded. The themes of reward and punishment are found throughout the entire Hebrew bible.
Thank you for your answer and the time you've put in writing this. I had never heard about the dry bone passage. I will look in to it more closely. I've send you a private message. Some background information about my life and my detailed questions.

I really enjoy your videos Rabbi. I am new to Islam(left Catholicism)
Welcome Marcos.
Mashalah!
Subhanallah, may Allah forgive u and all of us.
+Marcos I just want you to know. The LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST will return the 2nd time to destroy ISLAM.
JESUS is a ZIONIST. Here, read the PROPHECY of the 2nd coming of the LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST,
ZECHARIAH 14:1 A day of the Lord is coming, Jerusalem, when your possessions will be plundered and divided up within your very walls. 2 I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it; the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city. 3 Then the Lord will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights on a day of battle. 4 On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south.
This is what Christ followers think will happen. They will DIVIDE Jerusalem. One state for Palestinian. One state for Israel. Once Palestinian get their side. Other Arabs will support them and build their military. From there, they will take the rest of Jerusalem as well as remaining land of Israel. Then, the beginning of Prophet Zechariah prophecy.

im a muslim.. i like to say you are a honest and knowlegeble person.. peace be upon you
I truly respect your approach to such complex theological questions . I am a Muslim , and listening to the religious Jewish scholars makes me feel closer to a people that politics made us feel very different from us . The one God brings us closer .
The verse describes the end times.
You "WILL" find the Jews and the Idolators most hostile.
A time when Jews, Hindus and trinitarian Christians will be most hostile towards you, that is NATO.
The surah 5 also states that those among you who will make alliance with these Jews these Idolators these Christians will not be considered among you, that is Turkey (NATO member).
However, one particular sect among the Christians which will be most affectionate towards the Muslims (those who are not arrogant Christians) is the Orthodox Church i.e Russia.
Thank you v much for reading.
Jesus not being the Jewish messiah, means judaisms messiah isn't ever coming as the 2nd temple has been and gone.
@@stephenbermingham6554 : I think the Jews got is it all wrong regarding the Messiah. They probably believed that the Messiah would be a Jewish king who would free them from their non-Jewish rulers. In 586 BC the Jews came under the rule of the Babylonians, in 540 BC under the Persians in 320 BC or thereabout under the Greeks, in 160BC or there about under the Romans. Herod in around 03 AD got all the male babies of the Jews killed and Jesus said His kingdom was not of this world and from the Scripture we learn His mission was to free the Jewish people from the bondage of Mosaic laws that had outlived their utility. But most of the Jews rejected Jesus.
In the parable of the Wedding Feast, Jesus said the Kingdom of God will be taken away from the Jews and will be given to a people who will bear abundant fruit. Non-Jewish people in countries like Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, Austria, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand etc. accepted Jesus' teaching of love, forgiveness and non-violence and have established peaceful communities while Jews who rejected Jesus and instead believed in the eye for an eye law of Moses face violence and war almost on a daily basis.
After the Romans the Jews came under the rule of Byzantines, next the Turks and finally the British following the Second World War. Yet the Messiah they hoped for did not come. Since 1948 AD, the Jews are a free state. They are their own rulers. So where is the need for the Messiah who will deliver them from their rulers?
Islam has been turned into a political ideology and you can thank islamists for that. When Avraham died, ishmael accepted that Itzhak got the inheritance to continue Avraham's work... same in the end days. Arabs will accept that G-d returned Jews to their endigenous land and will eventually build the Temple on the Temple Mount. The Temple on Temple mount is part of the end of days and a requirement by G-d. So weather arabs/Muslims like it or not, but they will accept that. How that will happen, you can ask G-d, but it will happen.
Jewish scripture, from which qoran and islam was copied, already foretold that in the end of days arabs will give jews trouble in the land, but in the end, at the times of Moshiach, arabs will accept that the covenant of the Torah between G-d and people of the tribes of Israel is eternal and still active.

@@barbarathomas9534 I believe you and the quality of Tovia says alot about his family, heritage and surrounding. Unfortunately in middle East there this huge misunderstanding due to the conflict in the Holy land.
If the muslims will just accept the right of the Jews to be in their homeland governing themselves and leave these people alone, everyone in the Middle East will benefit. But the muslims do not accept Jews as Jews governing themselves on their tiny little strip of dry, resource poor land.And what are the muslims getting for that? Look how their societies are falling apart. Look how they kill each other. Look how the muslim lands - the rulers don't care if their people drink polluted water. The muslim/arab world is self-destructing. And Israel? It is the eighth power in the world, the leader in technology and innovation in every field and now the arabs are coming to Israel to solve their problems. You say misunderstanding. I say that the arabs/muslims are raised on hatred and really, it is making Israel stronger and eating up the arab muslims alive.@@yeslamo
Israelis are not full of hate. Israel graduates more arab phds and master's degree holders than all of the arab world combined. The arab Christians in Israel have the highest educational levels and per capita income, not the Jews in Israel. Arab citizens in Israel vote and have reps in parliament. Have you been there? Do you know?@MO MO
@MO MO the Palestinian dna shows arabian peninsula dna, you know the invaders from the 7th century. The Jewish dna, Ashkenazi, Sephardi Mizrahi shows from 85% -100% levant, Canaanite dna - in other words Israel. They have the 2500 year old Samaritan community, right. They are Jews. Lived in Hebron since biblical times. Their dna matches the Jews dna, but not the Palestinian dna - why do you muslims lie about history. 12 times in your koran it says allah gave the children of Israel the land of Israel forever and ever and they will return. Ottoman empire records 1880 - majority jewish in Israel and Jerusalem. These are facts.

I have come to you, to attest the Law which was before me. And to make lawful to you part of what was (before) forbidden to you; I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. So fear Allah, and obey me." (Quran 3:50)
The Quran also acknowledges that divine message has been sent to all in all languages and the Quran affirms the continuity of the divine message. "O ye People of the Book! believe in what We have (now) revealed, confirming what was (already) with you, before We change the face and fame of some (of you) beyond all recognition, and turn them hind wards, or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath-breakers, for the decision of Allah Must be carried out." (Quran 4:47)
The same religion He has established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah - the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that you should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than Allah, hard is the (way) to which you call them. Allah chooses to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him). (Quran 42:13)

Love your work brother Tovia. I just want to say the Qur'an is not vulnerable but people are vulnerable to the whispers of the shaytans. Whether it's the Qur'an, the Bible, new testement, and even Huckleberry Finn, they can all be used to do to anything that encompasses evil if used with that intent. Peace.
The only key to paradise is : "La Ilaha Il Allah, Muhammadur Rasool Allah". Meaning, there is no God but Allah and the holy and pure Prophet Muhammad-e-Mustafa (SAW) is Allah's Messenger. This applies to all people, including Jews.
We don’t need Mohammed’s prophecy - he never claimed to be a prophet to the children of israel - but he did say , correctly, that the Torah is true, that Jews must serve gd by keeping the Torah , and that the children of Israel will return to the land of israel at the end of days - “ in a mixed multitude “
@@mosheg112 I've got news for you, Muhammad did indeed claim to be a prophet to ALL manking INCLUDING the children of Israel. The Qur'an adresses the ISRAELITES directly throughout the whole narrative. I advise you to read the Qur'an from cover to cover and take heed in its warnings and rejoice in the glad tidings it gives. Peace
@@usamawaked6388 addressing the Israelites throughout the whole narrative is not being their prophet. Mohammed correctly asserts that the children of israel have the Torah and its teachings and it’s Rabbis - jurists that judge according to the Torah - Mohammed does not say anywhere that Jews must follow him or change the laws of the Torah because of him. Actually , there is proof from the Qu’ran that every Muslim must follow all the Jewish kosher laws. Mohammed says that Jews can eat in the homes of Muslims and visa versa…This clearly shows that all Muslims must seperate milk and meat and camel meat or milk is forbidden etc… also Muslims must keep all the kosher for Passover laws. I believe that Islam can be a kosher noahite religion serving the one true god - unfortunately there are many who rely on unreliable Hadiths calling for the murder of Jews and this is quite contrary to the qu’ran and Islam the way it’s written in the Quran
@@mosheg112 Brother Moshe, I assure you that Muhammad did claim to be a prophet for mankind and INCLUDING the children of Israel and the Qur'an asserts that you should follow the Qur'an and Muhammad. Don't take my word for it, read the Qur'an for yourself and see what it has to say to you. It makes the claim that Muhammad is prophesied in your own scriptures and that you should follow him for Allah has decreed Islam to be the religion to be followed by ALL manking and the Qur'an to be the final revelation to all humanity. Peace
Wish Jews and Muslims get their heads together like they did in Andaluce, com'on people stop fighting and let's get on peacefully, we could do miracles together.

Have you become an ex-muslim yet? 🤔
@@jojos9788 what are your intentions behind that question?
the qur'aan expects the jews to leave their torah and recognise the prophet muhammad (pbuh) as a legitimate messenger and the seal of all messengers. it isn't sufficient for the jews and christians to continue adhering to their torah/gospels and reject islam having heard its message. i have deep respect for you rabbi, but this is a truth that all must know.
we only say to you that the prophet in deuteronomy who god will _require_ of you is indeed the prophet of islam. isaiah 42 further clarifies this. peace to you.
isn't the prophet in deuteronomy nabi Isa pbuh?
isa and moses were very different, our prophet resembled moses greatly, more than any other candidate. peace be upon them all.
God commanded Moses to make war on certain infidels and in the case of Jesus, God did not order Jesus to make war on anyone. Moses and Jesus obeyed the Will of God.
There isn't a single verse in the Quran that says Jews must leave the Torah or that Christians must leave the gospel teachings of Jesus. On the contrary, the Quran expects the Jews to follow the Torah: 5:43"How can they come to you for judgment when they already have the Torah which contains the decree of God! It does not take them long to disregard your judgment; they are not true believers." 5:44 " We had revealed the Torah, containing guidance and light. The Prophets who had submitted themselves to the will of God, judged the Jews by the laws of the Torah. So did the godly people and the Jewish scholars who remembered some parts of the Book of God and bore witness to it. Mankind, do not be afraid of people but have fear of Me. Do not sell My revelations for a paltry price. Those who do not judge by the laws of God are disbelievers."
Christians are expected to follow the Gospel teachings. 5:46 "And We sent, following in their footsteps, Jesus son of Mary, confirming the Torah before him and We gave to him the Gospel, wherein is guidance and light, and confirming the Torah before it, as a guidance and an admonition unto the God-fearing."
2:62 "Verily! Those who believe and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day and do righteous good deeds shall have their reward with their Lord, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve." Allah doesn't contradict Himself.
Quran is not difficult to understand nor vulnerable. As you had oral law, we have hadith and many many of those are well preserved. I believe you know that much better than me. And those are enough to understand Quran in context. But if some hypocrite come and claim something weird about Quran without studying it, that wont make Quran vulnerable, we can show them context. So it depends on them if they believe or not.
.
I have respect for you. I love your explanations. Very informative too.
Behind each verse in the quran has their own background story.
And to understand the point of the story, we need to know history and the circumstances within the society.
Not including words or popular jargon during that time period.
Poetry etc.
Thank you Rabbi . Amazingly - and thanks to Dr. Mohammad Shahrour's method of modern reading of the word of Allah in which there should not be Synonyms (there is a reason why God would use a specific word) - the answer to your question at 7:06 , which can be frequently raised when studying religious text , is found in the Quran itself (see Quran Surat Aal-i-Imraan from 1 to 9...but specifically 7 ..its like WOAH!!..a verse in the book describing how to read the book..like a quick start guide or something) . The question of whether an instruction or any "point" made in the Quran is made for a specific time and place "moment" for us to conclude the lessons from it according to our time and/or place or it being a universal law , is the question of understanding the difference between "Nabi -Prophet" and "Rasool - Messenger" and how the prophet Mohammad PBUH had a position as a Man , a Rasool and A Nabi and the differences will make any human get goosebumps once understood , because it is almost like explaining human behavior that we all relate to , but via Allah's final messenger the one with no single miracle expect for a finite amount of Ayyat (verses) that we the followers of Muhammad PBUH believe are miracles , once reading the text again with this taken into account following the guide carefully the experience becomes something different because the word of God does not fail to be relevant in the heart of the believer. Please see what Dr. Mohammad Shahrour says about Islam vs Iman if you haven't already as it is the "Muhammad" way of accepting Jews and Christians as well as all believers of Al Tawheed (One) outside of the Abraham faith (Al Haneefiyya الحنيفية) in addition to no believers at all . Thank you Sir..Bless

This rabbi is a man of truth, its 100% the other way around today though, Christians hate Islam with every inch of thier idolatrous soul whereas Jews and Muslims can live together with love with the belief in la ilaha il Allah. Worshiping the one and only God of Abraham ... AND HES NOT A TRINITY.
***** The trinity is a laughable idea seriously.
***** the trinity must be from satan actually, lol I wouldnt be surprised akhi
***** PAHAHAH bro your a legend lol, its so fun fondling the dumbass trinity.
Alvï Love you too akhi habib ;)
omnitrix152 so you are opposing Quran?
Brother Tovia respect you for your honesty .. may god guide you sir ...
The rabbi is smart here is the verse
“Verily, you will find the strongest among men in enmity to the believers (Muslims) the Jews, and those who are Al-Mushrikun, and you will find the nearest in love to the believers (Muslims) those who say: "We are Christians." That is because amongst them are priests and monks, and they are not proud.” (Al Quran# 5:82).
“Paul” Roman 3:7 For if the truth of God has more abounded
through my lie to his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
What's your point?
+Mr tee that mean if you are too sick you will look for a Good doctor
Adam Dilem If you had bothered to read the context, the very NEXT VERSE shows you the conclusion of people that "lie to promote God"
*Romans 3:8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.*
Read the last four words over and over until you get it....
And also take note of Jesus:
*1 Peter **2:22** Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:*
Christianity hasn't changed we have thousands of manuscripts... if individuals have lusts and they twist Scriptures to fit their sinful lifestyle that has no bearing on the Holy Bible, or the message of Jesus, who said of himself he is the Way and to follow him, and he never told even one lie.
Adam Dilem It's not a "confession" by Paul lol, he is making an example of what others say... it's right there clear just read it!!! And then says there is a just damnation who did this crime.
If Paul is forever an enemy of Christ, do tell me why the apostle Peter confirmed him:
*2 Peter **3:15** And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;*
You really think a Christian won't take Peter seriously? Who is better to judge a true Christian message? "Enemy of the 12 apostles" you say.... why have you not read?
I am Unitarian Christian I reject the Trinity, Jesus is the Son of God begotten divinely, he is Gods first ever creation. As Jesus said he came from Heaven and incarnated into a mortal body. So you have nothing to say to me about idolatry whatsoever. Also... the West isn't a "Christian" nation, it is infidel government, we loathe what they are promoting in our countries.
*1 Peter **1:18**-19 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:*
^You see? It is not "Paul" that made up the dying for sins thing. In Jesus own words, in perfect clarity:
*Matthew **26:28** For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.*
+Mr tee thank God that we all love Jesus and we should follow him and do what he did circumcised, no swine, no alcohol and fell face down prayed to God as mentioned in the Bible. Jesus never claim divinity or asked people to worship him. Jesus warned all people who call him God in clear statement Matthew 7: 22 Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly,‘I never knew you; depart from Me, youworkers of lawlessness.’
You should debate David Wood.
I’m a Muslim and I notice that many Muslims watch your videos. Maybe even more then jews. Just an observation
@ToviaSinger One thing I should point out to you, the Quran itself claims to be a book of very precise words, but is a test for those who seek discord and division, because their hearts are already in flaw 3:7 , It is made for both types of people to test. Soley to test. That changes the perspective of the book completely for me.
Rabbi..sir you are a man of knowledge. Your explanations are absolutely beautiful
Rabbi i hope you take this in consideration
there is a significant explanation of this verse done by a Moroccan Muslim philosopher and thinker his name is Muhammad Abed Al Jabiri , he passed a way just before few years , he says the Christians who the verse is referring to are not the trinitarian Christians , the verse is referring to monotheistic Unitarian early Christians called Ebionites . Ebionites were originally Jews who accepted Jesus as the messiah of the Jewish people but they did not give him any divine attributes and viewed him as a messenger and servant of of God almighty , thats exactly what the Muslims actually believe , furthermore the ebionites lived a very simple life where they isolated themselves from the surroundings and dedicated all their time for worship , lets not forget that the trinitarian Christians persecuted the Ebionites and accused them of heresy. so the christian Ebionites who were monotheistic Unitarians , who accepted Jesus as the servant and messenger of Almighty God and the messiah of the Jewish people , who kept the law of Moses are more close to us than Jews as the verse is telling
I am really stunned with Rabbi's speech. speak totally with full evidence is his quality, May Our Almighty give hin strength to promote truth to this world
@ta_93 yes insult our religion and people
The Quran is not vulnerable. However, people are vulnerable especially when studying the Quran on their own. That is why you need a qualified teacher to explain it to you and so that you don't interpret it your self based your desiers. This was a good talk and i benefited from it. Thank you
💜💗💝Qur'an teaches Muslim "there is believers of GOD in jews". @@@ Rabbi singer, u believe ONE GOD and ur heart is pure. GOD is with u. 💞💞💞💞
rubel siddique
don't say what u don't know
any one believe in any religion other than islam is gonna burn in hellfire
@@muslimsoldier5670 Lol what came first
Your explanation of Holy Qur’a:n is better that many so called Muslims. You accept hermeneutic interpretations and do not accept literalism. I appreciate your deep study of Tafs:r and the science of Interpretation.
stay blessed Rabbi!
The Jews who follow the Torah and true to their religion are the best and they have pure soul unlike Christians who deviated and created new religion of their own rather than following the message prophet Issa was trying to convey to them which was worship the one only god like what Prophet Moses and our last Prophet Muhammad did.
Bless all
i am muslim but I truly truly admire your knowledge about islam and you are right the context is very important. i wish people like David wood would listen to you and learn a bit from you. Instead on focusing on creating a hostility between the christians and the muslims.
David food deserve the hostility. He's an ashole fr
What is the “pretty deep” video that is mentioned?
very fair Rabbi and honest I agree with him a Million% very knowledgeable Rabbi. I am a muslim and yes when we read the Quran we know this was not referred to the jews at all times but at the time of the prophet also christianity at that same time which is the time of Prophet Muhammad there was many good christian monks and priests vs the Jews who had decided to fight the prophet and to set the unbeliever Arabs against these christians priests still didn't believe that Jesus was God but a servant of God or in better word a prophet who is serving God, like Jesus had said in the Bible "I am the servant of God" "God is Making miracles on my hands" "God is greater than I"
Not all Jews, not all Christians as well.
See the context, who are those Christians mentioned in this channel title?
Ar Rum:
The Rum have been defeated
In the NEAREST land. But they, after their defeat, will overcome.
The nearest land, means christian part in east rather than west, right?
They are orthodox, not the roman one.
Are they different? Yes refers to Qur'an.
When muslims ran away from mushreek Quraish, they went to Abyssinia (Ethiopia), they were Orthodox Christians.
Crusades were launched by West Roman Christian wars, not Orthodox wars. Am I correct?
Now, who are the Jews more hostile than Christians? They are who makes allies with West Christians, who own USA, FedRes, IMF, WB, and Nato. They who plan New World Order. We call them Zionist. Jews who are not part of that ally, are not hostile Jews as Qur'an points out.
What about are muslims who join that ally?
Al Maidah:
And We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and
DO NOT FOLLOW their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. To each of you We prescribed a law and a method. Had Allah willed, He would have made you one NATION/ ORDER [united in religion/ path/ way of life/ order], but [No, He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so race to [all that is] good. To Allah is your return all together, and He will [then] inform you concerning that over which you used to differ.
..
.....
O you who have believed, DO NOT TAKE the Jews and the Christians as allies, WHICH they are ALLIES of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you - then indeed, he is [ONE/ PART] of them. Indeed, Allah guides NOT the WRONGDOING (Zalim) people.
.........
Muslims who join that ally then Qur'an says they are Wrongdoers, THEY ARE part of Imperialist Zionist who has agenda to make all people in ONE ORDER, see the verses above, "he is [ONE/ PART] of them"..
So, Qur'an some times talks groups (states or countries or parties), rather than personal matter.
I appreciate the honesty
Politics poisons everything.... very true Rabbi. The desires and whims of human beings are so amenable to devilish misdirection.
That's My Rabbi.
Is not the 5th surah set their table according to Isaiah's 10:28? They have taken up lodging @ Geba - what is this ?
This man is so enlightend with wisdom and knowledge.
As a muslim i am proud of this kinds of jews who know the truth. Bless you.
Rabbi much love to you! the Quran is 100% revealed by the angel Gabriel the way it is 114 surah in total confirmed by the Prophet (PBUH) error free,100% preserved and the same order of chapters from our God and yours
Interesting!!
Your explanation is rational and well organized. It make sense to me. Because
I'm from Yemen "South" and as I have been told by my father that Jewish were living peaceful until the British forced them to move to 🇵🇸 but the Yemeni Jewish in the north didn't move because they had a choice and they didn't trust the western (Jewish & Christian) . But when Israel was announced things have changed. Now majority of muslims may not have a problem with all Jewish but definitely they do have a problem with Israeli "Zionist" and I belive the majority of Jewish have problems with Muslims. I'm not agreeing with this but it's the reality. May good lead you to the right direction 🙏
Shalom Tovia SInger ...........(Peace be upon you)
Quran does not generalize, it Defines the believer is the one who believes in 1- the day after and 2- Does good in his life.
Believe only is insufficient to be saved niether doing good w/o believe.
Very knowledgeable approach. Many Muslims as well as Jews should take heed.
Firstly I would like to say that I appreciate this kind of dialogue from our Jewish brethren. It is very much needed, in my opinion, especially seeing the problems that there are today between Muslims and Jews. I appreciate the honesty and the forthcoming attitude. And everything said was true. Its true, Muslims fortunately and unfortunately have a text which is complex and without proper study, yes, you DO get idiots like ISIS (may Allah destroy all who misuse His words and commands for their own greed and desires) and this kind of open hearted dialogue and understanding is what I pray Muslims and Jews will be able to achieve together in the future. Its important to have someone who will be honest and tell it straight when it's needed. Thank you for that. May Allah guide us all, keep us on the Truth and may He raise us all together under His shade and mercy in the hereafter. Ameen.
Bro isis was created by USA for political reasons. So look when it comes to religion philosophy, religious study, geography, politics matters a lot
They are not all the same; among the People of the Scripture is a community standing [in obedience], reflecting and reciting the signs of God during periods of the night and they submit.
They believe in God and Accountability; they enjoin what is right, and forbid what is wrong; and they hasten (in emulation) in (all) good works: These are the reformists! Quran, 3:113-114
Salam Rabbi/Iman,
In a time where politicians are trying to pit people against one another, we need your intellect and wisdom to bring people back to the Abrahamic faith , to be a Mohideen.
Your words carry more power than any politicians
You are absolutely correct that`s why you must read the whole Quran!
I reverted from Christianity 8 years ago the Quran taught me a lot, I've been doing my Torah study the prayer direction is different in Islam than Judaism, I'm captivated by the sun and the sky when it changes I read it's not good to pray east because of this,
I think its very clear in verse 5:51 Quran talking about judeo christian alliance, as always they been the enemy of Islam
Yes it's a sign of end times, it's known today as the zionist alliance.
but that does not mean all jews or all christians, only those who support the zionist alliance.
Shalom: שלום
Peace; (desire for peace and well-being)
Wisdom, Humility, Love, Freedom, Obedience, Mercy.
Or all this when we live in ourselves, we transmit it in the form of peace.
There are verses in the Torah, in the Bible, and in the Quran that say "When the believers come to you, say 'greetings to them'.
Similarities between the scriptures, the Torah, the Bible and the Koran. Original Source:
God of Abraham, the friend of God!
Torah / Genesis 43:23
"Peace be with you"
..................
I really enjoy your Rabbi videos.
And I can swear that many Islamic scholars do not know the Quran as much as you do.
Since I do not know English, I translate into Turkish from the translation button under the video, but the translation quality is not very good.
I would be very happy if you could make technical improvements in this regard.

The Book of Life the Quran 3:7
(The Book He has sent down bears an important Principle.)
He it is Who has revealed to you (O Prophet) the Scripture. In it some verses are Literal, while some verses are Allegorical.
The verses that pertain to Permanent Values have been presented literally.
These verses, MUHKAMAT, are the Essence of the Divine Law.
On the other hand, abstract phenomena, historical events, and the World of the Unseen are described in similes, metaphors and allegories for your understanding (MUTASHABIHAT).
But those who are given to crookedness in their hearts pursue the allegories and try to give them literal meanings, thus creating dissension. None knows their final meaning (of such as the Essence of God, His Throne, His Book of Decree, the Eternity) but God.
Those who are well founded in knowledge understand why the allegories have been used and they keep drawing lessons from them (74:31).
They proclaim the belief that the entire Book is from their Lord.
As the human knowledge evolves, many of the other allegories will unfold their literal meaning (41:53). But only the men and women of understanding will bear this fact in mind. (Each of the verses in the Qur'an is MUHKAM, Absolute Truth and you can understand which ones are to be taken literally and which ones are to be taken allegorically, by the context (11:1), (47:20).
And each verse in the Book complements the other (39:23)
Remember, my co-religionists, that on account of the vast number of our sins, God has hurled us in the midst of this people, the Arabs, who have persecuted us severely, and passed baneful and discriminatory legislation against us, as Scripture has forewarned us, "Our enemies themselves shall judge us" (Deuteronomy 32:31). Never did a nation molest, degrade, debase and hate us as much as they. Therefore when David, of blessed memory, inspired by the holy spirit, envisaged the future tribulations of Israel, he bewailed and lamented their lot only in the Kingdom of Ishmael, and prayed in their behalf, for their deliverance, as is implied in the verse, "Woe is me, that I sojourn with Meschech, that I dwell beside the tents of Kedar." (Psalms 120:5). Note the distinction between Kedar and the children of Ishmael, for the Madman and imbecile is of the lineage of the children of Kedar as they readily admit. Daniel alludes only to our humiliation and degradation "like the dust in threshing" suffered at the hands of the Arabs, may they speedily be vanquished, when he says, "And some of the host and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and trampled upon them." (8:10). Although we were dishonored by them beyond human endurance, and had to put with their fabrications, yet we behaved like him who is depicted by the inspired writer, "But I am as a deaf man, I hear not, and I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth." (Psalms 38:14). Similarly our sages instructed us to bear the prevarications and preposterousness of Ishmael in silence. They found a cryptic allusion for this attitude in the names of his sons "Mishma, Dumah, and Massa" (Genesis 25:14), which was interpreted to mean, "Listen, be silent, and endure." (Targum Pseudo-Jonathan, ad locum). We have acquiesced, both old and young, to inure ourselves to humiliation, as Isaiah instructed us "I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair." (50:6). All this notwithstanding, we do not escape this continued maltreatment which well nigh crushes us. No matter how much we suffer and elect to remain at peace with them, they stir up strife and sedition, as David predicted, "I am all peace, but when I speak, they are for war." (Psalms 120:7). If, therefore, we start trouble and claim power from them absurdly and preposterously we certainly give ourselves up to destruction.
I shall now narrate to you succinctly several episodes subsequent to the rise of the Arabic kingdom from which you will derive some benefit.19 One of these refers to the Exodus of a multitude of Jews, numbering hundred of thousands, from the East beyond Ispahan, led by an individual who pretended to be the Messiah. They were accoutered with military equipment, and drawn swords, and slew all those that
Surah Al Maidah came down at the end of the Prophet Muhammad SAW's prophethood, there's in Medina, so that every verse that came down relates to events that occurred at that time, one of which was a conspiracy between a group of Jews and Arab pagans to betray the agreement that had been agreed with the Muslims, or The incident occurred when a group of Muslims finally had to ask leaders of Christian for a safe place to avoid being killed by Arab pagans, so there were many Christians who converted to Islam because they heard the verses of Quran being read. I was really amazed by Rabbi Tovia's knowledge in answering this question... which most Muslims don't necessarily understand.
Brother tovia I hope you research more and see the truth and convert to Islam you are truly a good person
why cant you accept him for who he is and his message
Wow. Kudos to you. You know a lot about Islam than many Muslims
Regarding the point that the Quran is incohesive and therefore vulnerable to negative interpretation, Quran sees it as a matter of cohesiveness and design to test the hearts :
It is He who has sent down to you, [O Muhammad], the Book; in it are verses [that are] precise - they are the foundation of the Book - and others unspecific. As for those in whose hearts is deviation [from truth], they will follow that of it which is unspecific, seeking discord and seeking an interpretation [suitable to them]. And no one knows its [true] interpretation except Allah . But those firm in knowledge say, "We believe in it. All [of it] is from our Lord." And no one will be reminded except those of understanding. 3.7
Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did Allah intend by this as an example?" He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient, 2;26
Ok, great points, now can you explain the Caucasus Mountains, where these people noted in text to be Israelites?
salam rabbi. i'm muslim from malaysia. enjoyed your videos
HE IS A GOOD GUY... may God open his hart....
Amazing rabbi !
When arabs were worshipping 100s of false Idols/ Gods...then Why jews didn't invite people to the One true God...What were jews doing back then?
Rabi has earned the respect of muslims by correctly interpreting the verses of Quran... May Allah give you hidayah
Good lecture
Sometimes politics is stronger than human similarities..
This man is amazing.
159. There is not one of the People of the Scripture but will believe in him before his death, and on the Day of Resurrection he will be a witness against them -
As well as, Allah refers to other people’s of the book as well within chapters that speak to Muslimeen. Allah doesn’t leave anyone out...
Shalom aleichem Rabbi. Your way of conveying the word of the creator helped me alot. It was a major factor for me to leave Christianity (Jehovah Withness). Is there anyway I could send you a private message? I would like some clearification on the concept of the immortallity of the soul, and the resurrection of the death. Especially the hebrew that is used in genesis (creation of Adam), and Ecclesiastes 9:3-10.
sure toviasinger1@aol.com
I cannot answer for Rav Tovia, but what is your specific question?
Resurrection is a keystone belief of all religious Jews, mentioned many many times in the Hebrew bible, and we repeat our belief three times daily in our prayers. Rambam lists it as one of the key beliefs of all Jews in his list of thirteen articles of faith. www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/332555/jewish/Maimonides-13-Principles-of-Faith.htm
All the details of the resurrection at the end of days are not known yet, however there is a mention in Ezekiel 37 which is called the dry bones passage. These people fell dead according to our oral teachings, during the period of rebellion early on in the desert, and the people were told by Moses that they were not to go up against their enemies, but rather wait since they had shown disobedience to God. Ignoring all warning, they went up anyway and were slaughtered by the enemy. These were the bones which were resurrected, and one of the rabbis in the Talmud claimed to have been descended from these people.
As for the nature of 'soul' - that is an English translation. The Hebrew words used for the life of man is either NEFESH HAYIM or NESHUMAH. Nefesh comes from the root that means 'to rest or stop.' That poses the next question, 'what comes to stop in a nefesh hayim?' Obviously that part of the breath of God which resides in the body of a man. The Torah tells us that Hashem breathed into the form He created, and the man became a nefesh hayim - a living soul. So the Greek word seems more close to the Hebrew, in that it refers to breath [ spirit ].
What is apparent is that the Torah teaches that God created mankind, male and female. First He formed the body from the earth, and then He breathed a living spiritual essence, which is called by various names in other languages. The point is that God gives that spiritual essence and then takes it away when people die, and that spiritual identity is judged after death. So the separation of that specially created breath of God and the body is difficult for those of little faith, and we pray that our attachment will be for God and His teachings [Torah] and that He will grant us an easy passing away, like that of Aharon and Moshe.
In the messianic age, there will be a general resurrection of the faithful dead, and each spiritual being will be reconnected to its human form again, and then all wounds will be healed. This is suggested in one of the Psalms that we read on the Sabbath. The messianic age will last for a few hundred years, until the sixth millennium ends and we will begin the seventh millennium. The current Hebrew year is 5777. Do the math, and compare it to the Exodus from Egypt, which the rabbis say received a 210 year shortcut since the count of 400 years started with Isaac, and not from the going down to Egypt of Yosef and his brothers.
So if that same 'discount' applies today, then we could see the messianic age rather shortly. Ezekiel 38, 39 discuss the war or wars of Gog and Magog, and how the rebellious coalition of the nations will be defeated when God decides to show the world His open might and power. He has been sending warning events to encourage repentance but many nations have not paid any serious attention, or continue to rebel even if they know they are wrong. So Persia will start the final war with a first attack. They are specifically mentioned.
I am sure that eventually you will get a response from Rav Tovia Singer, but I wanted to see if I could be of any help meanwhile, so that you would not feel left out in the cold. God promises us that those who are faithful to Him and who keep His teachings and His commandments will be rewarded. The themes of reward and punishment are found throughout the entire Hebrew bible.
Thank you for your answer and the time you've put in writing this. I had never heard about the dry bone passage. I will look in to it more closely. I've send you a private message. Some background information about my life and my detailed questions.
Jeroen van Kooten - Thanks; as soon as I can locate it I will read it and then respond. Oh, how wonderful! It just started to rain here in the Middle East, and we have been waiting for this for months.
Jeroen van Kooten gast je kan geen jood zijn de torah laat dat niet toe tenzij je moeder of vader joods zijn. wat voor religie is dat en wat voor God stelt z'n regel islam is voor iedereen en is de beste voor mensen
The difference between religion and politics should be maintained.♥️
Thank you for your amazing videos. Malika Saba is another female that has been mentioned in the holy Quran.
