@clarakrieger2438 You wrote "How religion is lived in thw west, often feels fake and empty to me." Do you live in the West? I assume you are not referring to Islam, your own religion, but to Christianity. Have you ever attended a service in a Christian Church? I am an Evangelical Christian in the US and when I think about Islamic "services" and "beliefs" I think about men worshiping separately from the women they are married to, doing a bunch of dry, mechanical motions and chants in a foreign language because their Allah doesn't speak English. My point is that impressions go both ways. Christianity has no "jihad". When we are born-again, which Jesus commanded of us, we experience a process of "sanctification" which means we undergo deeply personal experiences with God which sets us apart for His special purposes. To “sanctify” is to make one's self 'Holy', dedicated to God. The only struggle in this process is spiritual and within ourselves, resisting evil and deciding to do good. There are no Christian jihadi "armies". Our democratic republic was built upon the teachings of the Holy Bible and of Jesus whether people want to acknowledge Him in our founding documents by Christian founding fathers or not. Overall, I suspect Muslims are just as ignorant about Christianity as they claim we are about Islam.

May Allah guide me when I share that my own understanding is that the concept of "Jihad" as posited in the Quran has always meant a personal struggle or striving by the individual to address a short-coming in themselves. IIRC the "military application" is a relatively recent corruption of the term for geo-political agendas. For instance, the term "crusade" which was not used until 1213, and then to identify actions against the Cathars in Europe. The use of "jihad" has been commandeered by Modern Groups for its emotional appeal and the divisiveness it produces by dint of the "holier-than-thou" attitude it seems to engender. FWIW.
The Bible gives instruction: Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[ says the Lord. On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

The word Palestine comes from the Greek word phillista describing the Philistines who were a nomadic group from southern Europe. It has nothing to do with any land.
You are confusing the Phoenicians and the "Sea People" (aka: Philistine). "Palestine" derives from the Greek as you say. However the "phillistia" was a Greco-Roman perjorative used to identify individuals planted in the area of today's Gaza by Rhamses after he defeated the Sea People in the Nile Delta. However, Phoenicians were identified by both Greece and Rome as the dominant trading force in the Med until the end of the Punic Wars erased Carthage. Throughout this period from approximately 1200BC until the fall of Rome the Levant was indescriminantly identified with both Phoenicians and the "Sea People" of Gaza.....whitewashed with the same moniker. Had the Greeks and Romans been less ethnocentric and better scholars, the name "Palestine" might still have been used, but more correctly limited to the people of Gaza. Just sayin.......
@lahleholivia7398 Exactly. Only reason I said anything at all was that the flip side of the arguement you presented has been used TO PROVE there was a "Palestine". Were one to use the term correctly it would apply only to the area we know today as Gaza. Just pitchin' in where I can...... BTW: There is a school of thought that the original proscription against eating Pork developed from the use of pigs by the Sea People for food at sea. The pigs were fed on the Human waste of the sailors....a practice that may or may not have existed before their contact with the Israelite tribes. FWIW.
If there is no power but from God, then you are saying that God has given Israel the power to take down islam and make all the land from the river to the sea the property of Israel.
It's not that boys are bad, or girls good, girls are sweet and "nice," but boys are DIFFERENT, made of "snips and snails and puppy dog tails," and not of bad, evil or disgusting things
Dr Shabir's apologetic and defensive approach will not gain him acceptance. The root word Jahada does not equate to Jihad which is a shariah term with a specific meaning which is military only. Jihad was revealed in Medina while the strive (jahada) with the Quran verse was revealed earlier in Mecca when Jihad was not even known as a term as it had not been revealed yet. The Quranic verses revealed on Jihad in Medina are only related to military. While defensive Jihad is one component, however, Jihad, as Dr Shabir skirted around is, a noble war to make the word of Allah be raised ie for Islam to prevail on the earth, ie an offensive war. A study of classical sources of Fiqh debunks the modernist approach to dilute Jihad, considered the 6th pillar of Islam, to be a broad array of struggles with the military one being just one of them, and that too claimed to be a defensive one, which they have to justify with other religions. The West has practiced genocide through it's colonial invasions from North America's extermination of its natives to the genocide they are facilitating in Gaza for the last 4 months. The Muslim record on Jihad as a selfless war to save humanity and bring peace justice and prosperity to the people of the world is clearly documented with the high standards and rules by which it was conducted. We never killed non combatants, women and children, mistreated prisoners, demolished places of worship, destroyed infrastructure, farms and orchards, everything the West has done and is facilitaing in Gaza now and Palestine for 75 years. So Muslims have nothing to be apologetic for with this skirting approach, but the West has, we just need to grow some courage and spell it out. So no need for us to help the genocidal terrorist West in diluting and redefining Jihad which, along with the rest of the deen, they wish to extinguish, as stated in the Qur'an."They wish ti extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths..."
“Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.” Matthew 5:9 “Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.” John 18:36 “But Jesus said to him, “Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.” Matthew 26:52 “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,” Luke 6:27 “At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”” Matthew 11:25-30
The New Testament doesn’t promote any kind of violence, Jesus said if anyone slaps you to turn the other cheek! He calls his disciples to be as innocent as doves! He said he who lives by the sword, dies by the sword! The only New Testament verse that people try to twist for a justification of violence is when Jesus told the disciples to sell their cloaks and buy a sword, this was to fulfil the prophecy that he will be numbered with the transgressors. If we look at the like of Mohammad it’s easy to see that Jihad was used to force conversion, if we look at Islam end time prophecy we see that Jihad will again be used to convert with those not converting to be killed. Thankfully alot of Muslims aren’t consistent in following their religion, but unfortunately most Christian’s are also not consistent in following Jesus Christ and accepting him as their lord and saviour, the only way to the father is through the sin. Accept Jesus Christ while you still have time, he died to pay the price for your sins.
*Analysis of the Hamas Charter* (Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center) From address by FM Avigdor Liberman to the Global Forum for Combating Antisemitism - Dec 2009 The Hamas charter is the document which sets out the movement's ideology as it was formulated and honed by its founders. It includes its radical Islamic world view (conceived by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt), which has basically not changed in the 18 years of its existence. With regard to Israel, the charter's stance is uncompromising. It views the "problem of Palestine" as a religious-political Muslim issue, and the Israeli-Palestinian confrontation as a conflict between Islam and the "infidel" Jews. "Palestine" is presented as sacred Islamic land and it is strictly forbidden to give up an inch of it because no one (including Arab-Muslim rulers) has the authority to do so. With regard to international relations, the charter manifests an extremist worldview which is as anti-Western as Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations. That worldview brings in its wake the refusal to recognize the State of Israel's right to exist as an independent, sovereign nation, the waging of a ceaseless jihad (holy war) against it and total opposition to any agreement or arrangement that would recognize its right to exist. At the beginning of the charter there is a quotation attributed to Hassan Al-Bana,4 that "Israel will arise and continue to exist until Islam wipes it out, as it wiped out what went before." Overt, vicious anti-Semitism, with both Islamic and Christian-European origins, is used extensively throughout the document. The all-out holy war (jihad) against the Jewish people is legitimized by presenting the Jews in a negative light and demonizing them as wanting to take over not only the Middle East but also the rest of the world. One of the jihad's deadliest manifestations is suicide bombing terrorism, which was developed mainly by Hamas during the 1990s and has become its leading "strategy" in the ongoing violent Israeli-Palestinian confrontation. The Jews are also presented as worthy of only humiliation and lives of misery. That is because, according to the charter, they angered Allah, rejected the Qur'an and killed the prophets (the relevant Qur'an verse from Surah Aal-‘Imran is quoted at the beginning of the charter). The document also includes anti-Semitic myths taken from The Protocols of the Elders of Zion (mentioned in Article 32) regarding Jewish control of the media, the film industry and education (Articles 17 and 22). The myths are constantly repeated to represent the Jews as responsible for the French and Russian revolutions and for all world and local wars: "No war takes place anywhere without the Jews' being behind it" (Article 22). The charter demonizes the Jews and describes them as brutally behaving like Nazis toward women and children (Article 29). The charter views the jihad (holy war) as the way to take all of "Palestine" from the Jews and to destroy the State of Israel, and Hamas's terrorist attacks are seen as links in the jihad chain carried out during the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Article 15 states that "the jihad to liberate ‘Palestine' is the personal duty" of every Muslim, an idea expounded by ‘Abdallah ‘Azzam. The charter emphasizes the battle for Muslim hearts and minds or "the spread of Islamic consciousness" within three main spheres: the Palestinians, the Arab Muslims and the non-Arab Muslims (Article 15). The process of fostering and spreading that "Islamic consciousness" is defined as its most important mission. Clerics, educators, men of culture, those active in the media and information services and the generally educated public all have the responsibility to carry it out. As part of the battle for hearts and minds, the charter places a special emphasis on education [i.e., indoctrination] in the spirit of radical Islam, based on the ideas of the Muslim Brotherhood. Fundamental changes must be made, it states, in the educational system in the PA-administered territories: it must be "purified," purged of "the influences of the ideological invasion brought by the Orientalists and missionaries" (Article 15), and the younger generation should be given a radical Islamic education based exclusively on the Qur'an and the Muslim tradition (the Sunnah). The means used for ideological recruitment, as detailed in the charter, are "books, articles, publications, sermons, flyers, folk songs, poetic language, songs, plays, etc." When imbued with "correct" Islamic belief and culture, they become an important means of raising morale and building the psychological fixation and emotional strength necessary for a continuing "liberation campaign" (Article 19). The charter stresses the importance of Muslim solidarity according to the commands of the Qur'an and Sunnah, especially in view of the confrontation taking place between Palestinian society and the "terrorist Jewish enemy," described as Nazi-like. One of the expressions of that solidarity is aid to the needy (one of whose main manifestations is the network of various "charitable societies" set up by Hamas, which integrate social activities and support of terrorism). The charter makes a point of the ideological difference between Hamas, with its radical Islamic world view, and the secularly-oriented The Palestine Liberation Organization, but pays lip service to the need for Palestinian unity needed to face the Jewish enemy. It notes that an Islamic world view completely contradicts The Palestine Liberation Organization's secular orientation and the idea of a secular Palestinian state. Nevertheless, notes the charter, Hamas is prepared to aid and support every "nationalist trend" working "to liberate Palestine" and is not interested in creating schisms and disagreements (Article 27).

@lahleholivia7398 Exactly. Only reason I said anything at all was that the flip side of the arguement you presented has been used TO PROVE there was a "Palestine". Were one to use the term correctly it would apply only to the area we know today as Gaza. Just pitchin' in where I can......
BTW: There is a school of thought that the original proscription against eating Pork developed from the use of pigs by the Sea People for food at sea. The pigs were fed on the Human waste of the sailors....a practice that may or may not have existed before their contact with the Israelite tribes. FWIW.
@@lahleholivia7398 who cares where the word comes from
Israel came from the name of a prophet
No such a thing as israel 😂

If there is no power but from God, then you are saying that God has given Israel the power to take down islam and make all the land from the river to the sea the property of Israel.

It's not that boys are bad, or girls good, girls are sweet and "nice," but boys are DIFFERENT, made of "snips and snails and puppy dog tails," and not of bad, evil or disgusting things
Dr Shabir's apologetic and defensive approach will not gain him acceptance. The root word Jahada does not equate to Jihad which is a shariah term with a specific meaning which is military only. Jihad was revealed in Medina while the strive (jahada) with the Quran verse was revealed earlier in Mecca when Jihad was not even known as a term as it had not been revealed yet.
The Quranic verses revealed on Jihad in Medina are only related to military. While defensive Jihad is one component, however, Jihad, as Dr Shabir skirted around is, a noble war to make the word of Allah be raised ie for Islam to prevail on the earth, ie an offensive war.
A study of classical sources of Fiqh debunks the modernist approach to dilute Jihad, considered the 6th pillar of Islam, to be a broad array of struggles with the military one being just one of them, and that too claimed to be a defensive one, which they have to justify with other religions.
The West has practiced genocide through it's colonial invasions from North America's extermination of its natives to the genocide they are facilitating in Gaza for the last 4 months. The Muslim record on Jihad as a selfless war to save humanity and bring peace justice and prosperity to the people of the world is clearly documented with the high standards and rules by which it was conducted. We never killed non combatants, women and children, mistreated prisoners, demolished places of worship, destroyed infrastructure, farms and orchards, everything the West has done and is facilitaing in Gaza now and Palestine for 75 years. So Muslims have nothing to be apologetic for with this skirting approach, but the West has, we just need to grow some courage and spell it out. So no need for us to help the genocidal terrorist West in diluting and redefining Jihad which, along with the rest of the deen, they wish to extinguish, as stated in the Qur'an."They wish ti extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths..."

“At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.””
Matthew 11:25-30
Numbers 31:17-18
What a peacemaker 😂
The New Testament doesn’t promote any kind of violence, Jesus said if anyone slaps you to turn the other cheek! He calls his disciples to be as innocent as doves! He said he who lives by the sword, dies by the sword!
The only New Testament verse that people try to twist for a justification of violence is when Jesus told the disciples to sell their cloaks and buy a sword, this was to fulfil the prophecy that he will be numbered with the transgressors.
If we look at the like of Mohammad it’s easy to see that Jihad was used to force conversion, if we look at Islam end time prophecy we see that Jihad will again be used to convert with those not converting to be killed.
Thankfully alot of Muslims aren’t consistent in following their religion, but unfortunately most Christian’s are also not consistent in following Jesus Christ and accepting him as their lord and saviour, the only way to the father is through the sin.
Accept Jesus Christ while you still have time, he died to pay the price for your sins.

*Analysis of the Hamas Charter*
(Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center)
From address by FM Avigdor Liberman to the Global Forum for Combating Antisemitism - Dec 2009
The Hamas charter is the document which sets out the movement's ideology as it was formulated and honed by its founders. It includes its radical Islamic world view (conceived by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt), which has basically not changed in the 18 years of its existence. With regard to Israel, the charter's stance is uncompromising. It views the "problem of Palestine" as a religious-political Muslim issue, and the Israeli-Palestinian confrontation as a conflict between Islam and the "infidel" Jews. "Palestine" is presented as sacred Islamic land and it is strictly forbidden to give up an inch of it because no one (including Arab-Muslim rulers) has the authority to do so. With regard to international relations, the charter manifests an extremist worldview which is as anti-Western as Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations.
That worldview brings in its wake the refusal to recognize the State of Israel's right to exist as an independent, sovereign nation, the waging of a ceaseless jihad (holy war) against it and total opposition to any agreement or arrangement that would recognize its right to exist. At the beginning of the charter there is a quotation attributed to Hassan Al-Bana,4 that "Israel will arise and continue to exist until Islam wipes it out, as it wiped out what went before."
Overt, vicious anti-Semitism, with both Islamic and Christian-European origins, is used extensively throughout the document. The all-out holy war (jihad) against the Jewish people is legitimized by presenting the Jews in a negative light and demonizing them as wanting to take over not only the Middle East but also the rest of the world. One of the jihad's deadliest manifestations is suicide bombing terrorism, which was developed mainly by Hamas during the 1990s and has become its leading "strategy" in the ongoing violent Israeli-Palestinian confrontation.
The Jews are also presented as worthy of only humiliation and lives of misery. That is because, according to the charter, they angered Allah, rejected the Qur'an and killed the prophets (the relevant Qur'an verse from Surah Aal-‘Imran is quoted at the beginning of the charter). The document also includes anti-Semitic myths taken from The Protocols of the Elders of Zion (mentioned in Article 32) regarding Jewish control of the media, the film industry and education (Articles 17 and 22). The myths are constantly repeated to represent the Jews as responsible for the French and Russian revolutions and for all world and local wars: "No war takes place anywhere without the Jews' being behind it" (Article 22). The charter demonizes the Jews and describes them as brutally behaving like Nazis toward women and children (Article 29).
The charter views the jihad (holy war) as the way to take all of "Palestine" from the Jews and to destroy the State of Israel, and Hamas's terrorist attacks are seen as links in the jihad chain carried out during the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Article 15 states that "the jihad to liberate ‘Palestine' is the personal duty" of every Muslim, an idea expounded by ‘Abdallah ‘Azzam.
The charter emphasizes the battle for Muslim hearts and minds or "the spread of Islamic consciousness" within three main spheres: the Palestinians, the Arab Muslims and the non-Arab Muslims (Article 15). The process of fostering and spreading that "Islamic consciousness" is defined as its most important mission. Clerics, educators, men of culture, those active in the media and information services and the generally educated public all have the responsibility to carry it out.
As part of the battle for hearts and minds, the charter places a special emphasis on education [i.e., indoctrination] in the spirit of radical Islam, based on the ideas of the Muslim Brotherhood. Fundamental changes must be made, it states, in the educational system in the PA-administered territories: it must be "purified," purged of "the influences of the ideological invasion brought by the Orientalists and missionaries" (Article 15), and the younger generation should be given a radical Islamic education based exclusively on the Qur'an and the Muslim tradition (the Sunnah). The means used for ideological recruitment, as detailed in the charter, are "books, articles, publications, sermons, flyers, folk songs, poetic language, songs, plays, etc." When imbued with "correct" Islamic belief and culture, they become an important means of raising morale and building the psychological fixation and emotional strength necessary for a continuing "liberation campaign" (Article 19).
The charter stresses the importance of Muslim solidarity according to the commands of the Qur'an and Sunnah, especially in view of the confrontation taking place between Palestinian society and the "terrorist Jewish enemy," described as Nazi-like. One of the expressions of that solidarity is aid to the needy (one of whose main manifestations is the network of various "charitable societies" set up by Hamas, which integrate social activities and support of terrorism).
The charter makes a point of the ideological difference between Hamas, with its radical Islamic world view, and the secularly-oriented The Palestine Liberation Organization, but pays lip service to the need for Palestinian unity needed to face the Jewish enemy. It notes that an Islamic world view completely contradicts The Palestine Liberation Organization's secular orientation and the idea of a secular Palestinian state. Nevertheless, notes the charter, Hamas is prepared to aid and support every "nationalist trend" working "to liberate Palestine" and is not interested in creating schisms and disagreements (Article 27).
Why don't you let the Quran speak? Why don't you quote some verses with the term jihad in it?
i would like to see quotes as well
Jihad o9.0 - Jihad means to war against non-Muslim, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada, signifying warfare to establish the religion. Page 599 - Reliance of the Traveler.
Can you quote some?
You can find previous videos with quotes. Look in the channel.
*"And those who strive for Us - We will surely guide them to Our ways.1 And indeed, Allāh is with the doers of good."* 29:69
it basically means, anyone who tries to be guided by seeking knowledge and trying to know God, God will show him the path. the word Jihad is used
Thank you . That was very nice.
