- Islam vs Atheism: How to Defeat Atheism & Prove Islamic Theism (includes the Quranic Argument for God's Existence)
00:03 Introduction: Atheism in the Islamic tradition - deviation from the norm, shirk, imprudent and irrational
07:08 Defining Atheism with focussing on metaphysical naturalism
10:33 Atheists who believe in a higher-power and not imposing definitions on people
11:14 The art of da'wah, listening with the intention to understand and loving for the people
14:28 Argument against atheism #1: No ultimate value for human life without God
20:33 Islam and utlimate value for human life
23:27 Argument against atheism #2: There are no objective moral values without God
35:30 Responding the Euthyphro's dilemma
43:25 My experiences and academic studies have taught me the best arguments are from Allah
45:39 The Qur'an does not focus on atheism, it's focus is who is worthy of worship
46:06 Argument against atheism #3: The Qur'anic argument for God's existence (chapter 52, verses 35 to 36)
49:25 An argument for the finitude of the universe
52:46 Responding the fallacy of composition claim
55:04 Did the universe come from nothing? (With responses to objections)
58:21 Did the universe create itself?
59:41 Was the universe created by something else created?
01:01:57 The uncreated creator must be transcendent, powerful, have a will, must be knowing and one
01:09:33 Summary and conclusion
This man for over a decade has been a champion for Allah.
so the objective morality of marrying and have sex with a 9 year old girl is superior to the subjective morality of now viewing a 9 year as a child, even if menstruating?
@@user-on8jx3qr8w You clearly don't know how Islamic age of consummation works.
1) There shouldn't be any harm for the male and female.
i.e no child and old people.
2) Both mental and physical maturity should be attained, which is subjective.
3) Maturity should be made certain using the best of science of the epoch.
4) Consent of both male and female is required.
@@justahuman00
1) how do you know if having sex with a 9 year old will harm her or not. until of course you do it? did you see the report of the 8 year old in yemen dying on her wedding night. internal injuries. yet it is still common in yemen to marry little girls.
2) yes quite subjective. i thought your morality is from god and therefore objective. so who is the arbitor of maturity? her [possibly quite poor, with 8 daughters] father?
3) oh no. now you are using the best science of the time. getting even more subjective. i think muhammad hijab would disapprove. and definately br. daniel haqiqatou.
4) right, right. because when abu bakr tells his 9 year old daughter to marry 'the prophet' she definitely has the agency to say no. or any good muslim 9 year old is going to say no to their father. if they even understand what marriage entails.
A) justahuman, are you a muslim?
Everyone who shadow boxes is the champion of the match with himself.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
06:07 🌐 *Atheism, according to Islamic tradition, is considered unnatural and a deviation from the natural way created by Allah.*
13:44 🤝 *Muslims are called to love for humanity what they love for themselves, emphasizing the importance of understanding individual contexts in dialogue.*
19:53 🌐 *Philosophical naturalism lacks an ontological foundation for human value, as it reduces individuals to blind, non-rational physical processes.*
27:01 🤔 *Theistic moral realism in Islam provides an ontological foundation for objective moral values, rooted in Allah's commands, unlike atheistic perspectives that struggle to explain objectivity.*
31:22 🌐 *Objective moral values cannot be based on social pressure or biological mechanisms; they need a mind-independent basis.*
32:20 🧬 *Darwinian natural selection explains our ability to formulate ethical rules, not the mind-independent nature of objective moral values.*
34:15 🤔 *Secular moral realism lacks a foundation for objective moral duties; theism, particularly Islam, provides a basis for moral obligations owed to Allah.*
35:54 🔄 *Plato's dilemma challenges the basis of moral values: if based on Allah's commands, is it good because commanded, or are the commands good independently? Hamza argues for a nuanced position.*
37:35 🤯 *Hamza presents a robust moral argument rooted in classical tradition, rejecting the notion of arbitrariness in Allah's commands by aligning them with His names and attributes.*
46:47 🔍 *Hamza introduces a powerful Quranic argument, challenging the origin of atheists: "Did you come from nothing? Did you create yourself? Did the created thing create the heavens and the Earth?" It asserts the need for an uncreated Creator.*
49:22 🌌 *Hamza argues for the finitude of the universe, using the principle that things with limited physical qualities, like the universe, must have had prior causal conditions, indicating a beginning.*
56:21 🪞 *Hamza addresses the misconception around the term "nothing" in theological context, emphasizing that theological "nothing" involves Allah's will and power as the prior cause and conditions for creation.*
58:32 🔄 *Hamza refutes the idea of self-creation, highlighting the logical contradiction in something creating itself and emphasizing that self-creation requires pre-existing power.*
59:51 ❓ *Hamza challenges the notion of a created thing, like the human being, creating the universe, emphasizing the need for an ultimate explanation beyond another created thing.*
01:00:33 🔄 *Infinite regress is absurd; for our universe to exist, there must be an uncaused cause or uncreated creator that transcends the chain of causes.*
01:02:12 💪 *The uncreated creator must be powerful, as evident from the phenomenal power in the universe and its creation.*
01:03:28 🤔 *The uncreated creator must have a will, as the universe came into existence at a specific point in time, indicating a choice and will.*
01:04:38 🧠 *The uncreated creator must have knowledge, implied by the existence of natural laws and patterns in the universe.*
01:05:20 ⚖️ *The uncreated creator must be one, as having two powerful creators would result in chaos and conflict of wills.*
01:07:48 🤯 *To claim multiple gods, there must be a concept to distinguish them, implying differences and negating the concept of an all-powerful, all-knowing, and singular God.*
01:08:25 ☝️ *The AK of Islam: Allah is one, powerful, knowing, has a will, and is transcendent, supported by Quranic grounding.*

What do u think is more natural Polytheism or Monotheism when you take a look at History
@@nyakabb2472 monotheism
@@IsmailSarkaya-ll4ts Really.How many ancient cultures believed in a monotheistic religion
@@nyakabb2472 that's the wrong approach, there are polytheistic cultures obviously but a lot of them have monotheistic undertones like Hinduism , if you study it, you'll see that they say it's one god and the different "gods" are his attributes. So the islamic argument is that monotheism is intuitive/ the primordial disposition and then through whispers of the devil people mix up good with bad and bring polytheism to monotheism. So counting absolute numbers of polytheistic cultures and comparing it to monotheistic ones is the wrong approach. The better approach would be to find out what actually is the primordial disposition.
God bless you my brother for the hard work
Salam alaykom, pls post the next sessions. May Allah reward you immensely for your work
Beautifull barakallahu fik
Love for you is unexplainable❤❤❤ Jazakallah for helping us to sharpen our eeman🫂 May Allah protect you and also guide us all to the right path❤
Jazakallah Khair Ustdath Hamza
I love you brother Hamza. I can't explain how much I cherished you.
Why? He is simply repeating things brought up 100s of years ago, nothing new. I have refuted his claims, corrected him again and again and he has learnt nothing.
@@StefanKeesi guess he's immune to reason
He must charge a lot money for these lectures.
So regardless, He will jot change his mindset, especially where there is money to be made.
However I could me wrong.
Well Articulate Work ❤👍
A top quality video
ماشااله
جزاک الله بالخیر و العافیه
ALhamdulillah. Keep going bro, keep on bro ☝☝☝☝
❤❤❤ one of the best and enlightening lectures
Assalamu Aleykum brother Hamza.

Maa shaa' Allah
Here is giving your excellence a shout out for the revelation of a talk!
Subhan'Allah!
Ustadh Dr. Humza Andreas Tzortzis' insightful talks, among others, suffice me.
Thanks, a ton, Ustadh-e-Muhtaram!
❤❤
Thanks
Fantastic presentation
Asrar Rashid ❤
Mashallah
I love this brother for ALLAH. His philosophical elaborations are so comprehensible and logical it directly goes from my brain to my heart ❤
He is primitive, repetitive, boring and dishonest. He is also a coward.
Explain to me what you think his best argument for the existence of his god ia and why it is so convincing.
@@joerdim Everything
@@ShahzadAhmad-nb6si Lol. Since you just like your god like to play hide and seek: Why do you think his so-called "quranic argument for god" is convincing.
great presentation and very informative. I struggled with the argument for choice/will before now I have a better understanding and for that I thank you. I think the consequences of a strictly naturalistic worldview needs to be hammered more often and as hard as possible. there is no way a sane human being can argue for this after fully understanding the consequences (unless your paycheck depends on it or you're making your living with it like "shaykh" Dawkins lol).
You are correct, no sane human can cope with a materialist world! I have become insane, depressed and schozophrenic ever since i left Islam
But theres no way i cna turn my brain off and believe in your false propeht again. Hadiths were written hundred+ years after muhammad died, and in it it is said you should drink camel piss, muhamamd flew to heaven on donkeys and you should dip flies in your drink twice
Hahahahahahahah
Wrong. Tzortzis is stuck in his bubble without understanding the outside world. He rejects reality and can't be honest enough to accept it either.
@@StefanKees since you seem to be so sure about this why not deal with the arguments or even better why not talk to him directly rather than about him?
@@trappedinexistenceempty statements
Can you present to me a short version of your so-called argument for choice/will?
Also, strictly "naturalistic world view"? I for example am a methodological naturalist, which I think most atheist are. It means that since we don't have any evidence for the existence of the supernatural, we shouldn't appeal to it. If evidence is presented, this changes.
Assalamualaikum wr wb
Sir JazakAllah khairn
Really very impressive
Masha'ALLAH great
Jazak Allah Khair. Thank you for pointing out the errors of Dr Zakir Naik on atheism being halfway towards Islam
Did Jesus founding Christianity? Did moses founding Judaism? And Muhammad founded Islam? Of course it doesn't . God sent down The Holy Scriptures and send prophets to deliver the words of God and The theaching monotheism/Abraham faith. God of Abraham commanded only to serve him alone And obey the prophets and must keep practice the Torah, Gospel and Quran correctly. Therefore, God says (Quran 2:62) which means that he (God) does not really care about the religion of man 👉 :;Verily, those who believe, the Jews, the Christians and the Sabians, whoever (among them) believes in God and the Last Day, and does good deeds, they will have their reward from their Lord. there is no fear in them, and they do not grieve.(Al-Quran 2:62) Say, "O People of the Scripture, come to a word that is equitable between us and you - that we will not worship except God and not associate anything with Him and not take one another as lords instead of God." But if they turn away, then say, "Bear witness that we are submitting to Him."O People of the Book! Why do you argue about Abraham, while the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed until long after him? Do you not understand? Here you are - those who have argued about that of which you have [some] knowledge, but why do you argue about that of which you have no knowledge? And God knows, while you know not. Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was one inclining toward truth, submitting to God. And he was not of the polytheists. Indeed, the most worthy of Abraham among the people are those who followed him [in submission to God] and this prophet [i.e., Muhammad] and those who believe [in his message]. And God is the Ally of the believers.(Quran Ali 'Imran[3]:64-68) If the People of the Book had believed and feared God, We would have written off their evil deeds and would have surely admitted them to the Gardens of Bliss.
If they had upheld the Torah and the Injīl (Gospel) and what had been sent down to them from their Lord (the Quran), they would surely have had plenty to eat from above them and from beneath them. Among them are moderate people. As for most of them, evil is what they do.
O Messenger, convey all that has been sent down to you from your Lord. If you do not, then you shall not have conveyed His message (at all). God shall protect you from the people. Surely, God does not lead the disbelieving people to the right path.
Say, “O people of the Book, you have nothing to stand on, unless you uphold the Torah and the Injīl(Gospel) and what has been sent down to you from your Lord.” What has been sent down to you from your Lord will certainly make many of them more persistent in rebellion and disbelief. So, do not grieve over the disbelieving people.
Surely, those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Sabians, and the Christians - whoever believes in God and the Last Day, and acts righteously, shall have no fear, nor shall such people grieve.(Al-Quran Al-Ma'idah,[5] 65-69) Everyone turns to their own direction ˹of prayer˺. So compete with one another in doing good. Wherever you are, God will bring you all together ˹for judgment˺. Surely God is Most Capable of everything.(Al-Quran Al-Baqarah, Ayah 148) We have sent down to you the Book with truth, confirming the Book before it, and a protector for it. So, judge between them according to what God has sent down, and do not follow their desires against the truth that has come to you. For each of you We have made a law and a method. Had God willed, He would have made a single community of people, but (He did not), so that He may test you in what He has given to you. Strive, then, to excel each other in good deeds. To God is the return for all of you. Then God shall tell you about that in which you disputed. (Al-Quran Al-Ma'idah, Ayah 48) If God so willed, He would have made all of you a single community, but He lets whom He wills go astray and takes whom He wills to the right path; and surely you will be questioned about what you used to do.
(Al-Quran An-Nahl, Ayah 93) All the people were no more than a single community; later, they differed. But for a word from your Lord that had already come to pass, a decisive judgment would have been made about their mutual differences.
(Al-Quran Yunus, Ayah 19) Say (Muhammad PBUH), “As for me, my Lord has guided me to a straight path, the straight religion, the faith of Abraham who was upright and was not of those who associate partners with God.
Say, “My prayer, my offering, my life and my death are for God, the Lord of all the worlds.
For Him there is no partner. And thus I have been commanded, and I am the first one to submit.”
Say, “Should I seek a lord other than God while He is the Lord of everything? And nobody does anything but to his own account, and no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return. Then He will let you know what you were disputing about.”
It is He who made you the vicegerents of the earth and raised some of you in ranks over others, so that He may test you in what He has given you. Surely, your Lord is swift in punishing, and surely He is Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.(Al-Quran Al-An'am[6]161-165)
Islam is not religion. The word Islam is derived from the word salam, which means peace, surrender; submission and obedience to God's commands. Islam is referred to as a religion because the people who call them in the actual group ppl the followers of God's messenger Muhammad ﷺ. Allah himself divides humans into 3 groups, The believers (Mukmin), musrikin and munafikun . Actually it is not a problem if we followers of the prophet Muhammad ﷺ and call yourself as Islam as long as we don't feel the most righteous. Because the so-called Muslims are those who are monotheists, beliver in one God, God of Abraham as God (can be the Christian, Judaism etc. groups). But actually the religion of God is tauhid(monotheism), the Abrahamic religion.Abraham faith. Pls Read Quran carefully Consider the word Islam in the tafsir , Understand what God and God's messenger actually commanded you to do. Is the commandment to create a new religion, Islam, or is it the teachings of Abraham that need to be questioned? 👀Al-Quran 2:130-140, 3:81-95, 4:124-125, 6:161-165, 22:77-78 . >>Read the Quran carefully pls, and be careful with the interpretation of the word Islam! And remember that freemasonry has succeeded in corrupting the Bible with its trinity and ISIS has been established by the British Empire since 1885. This is 138 years ago. Notice how many divisions there have been and how many people have been killed? They also controlled the madarasah without us knowing and did you know Al-Quran Al-Buruj 1-12 is It recounts God's defence of mukminun(the believers) followers of Ieesa AS(Jesus), or Will we deny this word of God that the believers ( mukminun)can be Adherents of the gospel and the Torah? ☝️And this is how We have sent it (the Qur’ān) down as clear signs, and the fact is that God leads whom He wills to the right path.
As for those who believe and the Jews and the Sabians and the Christians and the Magians and those who ascribe partners to God, God will judge between them on the Day of Judgment. Surely God is witness to every thing.(Al-Quran Al-Hajj[ 22]16-17)✅
Surely, those who believed in God, and those who are Jews, and Christians, and Sabians, -whosoever believes in God and in the Last Day, and does good deeds - all such people will have their reward with their Lord, and there will be no reason for them to fear, nor shall they grieve.(Al-Quran Al-Baqarah[2] 62)✅
If the People of the Book had believed and feared God, We would have written off their evil deeds and would have surely admitted them to the Gardens of Bliss.
If they had upheld the Torah and the Injīl (Gospel) and what had been sent down to them from their Lord (the Quran), they would surely have had plenty to eat from above them and from beneath them. Among them are moderate people. As for most of them, evil is what they do.

So, do not grieve over the disbelieving people.

Surely, your Lord is swift in punishing, and surely He is Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.(Al-Quran Al-An'am[6]161-165)✅ O humanity! Indeed, We created you from a male and a female, and made you into peoples and tribes so that you may ˹get to˺ know one another. Surely the most noble of you in the sight of God is the most righteous among you. God is truly All-Knowing, All-Aware.
˹Some of˺ the nomadic Arabs say, “We believe.” Say, ˹(Muhammad PBUH),˺ “You have not believed. But say, ‘We have submitted(Islam),’ for faith has not yet entered your hearts. But if you obey God and His Messenger ˹wholeheartedly˺, He will not discount anything from ˹the reward of˺ your deeds. God is truly All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”The ˹true˺ believers are only those who believe in God and His Messenger-never doubting-and strive with their wealth and their lives in the cause of God. They are the ones true in faith.Say, “Do you inform God of your faith, when God ˹already˺ knows whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth? And God has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of all things.”They regard their acceptance of Islam as a favour to you. Tell ˹them, [Muhammad PBUH ], “Do not regard your Islam as a favour to me. Rather, it is God Who has done you a favour by guiding you to the faith, if ˹indeed˺ you are faithful. Surely God knows the unseen of the heavens and earth. And God is All-Seeing of what you do.”(Al-Quran Al-Hujurat[49]13-18)
Islam is like 99,99% towards atheism. There are countless supposed gods, muslims simply believe in one more than atheists.

Indeed
Cannot quite believe Hamzas actually greek not south asian

*"Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has strayed from His way, and He is most knowing of who is [rightly] guided."* (Quran 16:125)
Well, obviously that is true if the claim that he creates people in a certain way and knows the future is also true. Humans cannot choose otherwise under these circumstances. Free will cannot work under Islam.

The So many religions so many Gods which one is true argument . The reason the Quran was revealed is to warn those people who worship other Gods besides the One True God . Shirk (associating partners with God ,taking other deities besides God ) is the only unforgivable Sin since it violates the very purpose for which Humans were created ,to worship God alone . Worshiping humans or attributing human limitations to God (Hinduism,Christianity,Buddhism) or worshiping Nature or the Sun and Moon or planets or creating a false deity by combining humans and animals or taking one's own desires as God ( materialists ) or erecting rivals to God like Mother Nature,Science,Evolution giving lifeless concepts or objects God like qualities (atheists) is hence a direct ticket to the hellfire
Did Jesus founding Christianity? Did moses founding Judaism? And Muhammad founded Islam? Of course it doesn't . God sent down The Holy Scriptures and send prophets to deliver the words of God and The theaching monotheism/Abraham faith. God of Abraham commanded only to serve him alone And obey the prophets and must keep practice the Torah, Gospel and Quran correctly. Therefore, God says (Quran 2:62) which means that he (God) does not really care about the religion of man 👉 :;Verily, those who believe, the Jews, the Christians and the Sabians, whoever (among them) believes in God and the Last Day, and does good deeds, they will have their reward from their Lord. there is no fear in them, and they do not grieve.(Al-Quran 2:62) Say, "O People of the Scripture, come to a word that is equitable between us and you - that we will not worship except God and not associate anything with Him and not take one another as lords instead of God." But if they turn away, then say, "Bear witness that we are submitting to Him."O People of the Book! Why do you argue about Abraham, while the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed until long after him? Do you not understand? Here you are - those who have argued about that of which you have [some] knowledge, but why do you argue about that of which you have no knowledge? And God knows, while you know not. Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was one inclining toward truth, submitting to God. And he was not of the polytheists. Indeed, the most worthy of Abraham among the people are those who followed him [in submission to God] and this prophet [i.e., Muhammad] and those who believe [in his message]. And God is the Ally of the believers.(Quran Ali 'Imran[3]:64-68) If the People of the Book had believed and feared God, We would have written off their evil deeds and would have surely admitted them to the Gardens of Bliss.
If they had upheld the Torah and the Injīl (Gospel) and what had been sent down to them from their Lord (the Quran), they would surely have had plenty to eat from above them and from beneath them. Among them are moderate people. As for most of them, evil is what they do.
O Messenger, convey all that has been sent down to you from your Lord. If you do not, then you shall not have conveyed His message (at all). God shall protect you from the people. Surely, God does not lead the disbelieving people to the right path.
Say, “O people of the Book, you have nothing to stand on, unless you uphold the Torah and the Injīl(Gospel) and what has been sent down to you from your Lord.” What has been sent down to you from your Lord will certainly make many of them more persistent in rebellion and disbelief. So, do not grieve over the disbelieving people.
Surely, those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Sabians, and the Christians - whoever believes in God and the Last Day, and acts righteously, shall have no fear, nor shall such people grieve.(Al-Quran Al-Ma'idah,[5] 65-69) Everyone turns to their own direction ˹of prayer˺. So compete with one another in doing good. Wherever you are, God will bring you all together ˹for judgment˺. Surely God is Most Capable of everything.(Al-Quran Al-Baqarah, Ayah 148) We have sent down to you the Book with truth, confirming the Book before it, and a protector for it. So, judge between them according to what God has sent down, and do not follow their desires against the truth that has come to you. For each of you We have made a law and a method. Had God willed, He would have made a single community of people, but (He did not), so that He may test you in what He has given to you. Strive, then, to excel each other in good deeds. To God is the return for all of you. Then God shall tell you about that in which you disputed. (Al-Quran Al-Ma'idah, Ayah 48) If God so willed, He would have made all of you a single community, but He lets whom He wills go astray and takes whom He wills to the right path; and surely you will be questioned about what you used to do.
(Al-Quran An-Nahl, Ayah 93) All the people were no more than a single community; later, they differed. But for a word from your Lord that had already come to pass, a decisive judgment would have been made about their mutual differences.
(Al-Quran Yunus, Ayah 19) Say (Muhammad PBUH), “As for me, my Lord has guided me to a straight path, the straight religion, the faith of Abraham who was upright and was not of those who associate partners with God.
Say, “My prayer, my offering, my life and my death are for God, the Lord of all the worlds.
For Him there is no partner. And thus I have been commanded, and I am the first one to submit.”
Say, “Should I seek a lord other than God while He is the Lord of everything? And nobody does anything but to his own account, and no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return. Then He will let you know what you were disputing about.”
It is He who made you the vicegerents of the earth and raised some of you in ranks over others, so that He may test you in what He has given you. Surely, your Lord is swift in punishing, and surely He is Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.(Al-Quran Al-An'am[6]161-165)

Dear Brother Hamza,
the Timestamps in your Description will only work if the first one starts at 00:00 ;)

laurence kraus tore this guy a new one. if the universe requires a creator then maybe your god requires a creator too. morals dont need to be objective. humans make mistakes and learn from it unlike theist who keep making the same mistakes over and over and never learn from it. There is no good reason to believe in any god. expose your believes to criticism and listen to atheist speakers then you know the counter arguments to everything this speaker is proposing.
He already answered your remarks in the video .
Kraus drew a circle, talked about homosexual sheep, and couldn't remember what he wrote in his own book titled a universe from nothing. Btw when you open his book "nothing is something" 🤡

When you listen to people who outright lie about the opponents position and argument and talks for hours about fields where he doesn’t have a degree in that field then you will surely be misled
He has an Mres, MA & Pgcert in Philosophy from University of London. I think he’s quite qualified. He and his peers have had numerous debates with leading atheist theorists.
Check out Subhoor Ahmad. He specialises in this field.
Why listen to you?
What degree do you have?

Add one more, find out why Allah is afraid of the one that is called king of kings, look it up.
Sahih Al Bukhari 6205:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The most awful name in Allah's sight on the Day of Resurrection, will be (that of) a man calling himself Malik Al-Amlak (the king of kings).
"Awful" means "afraid" ?
You are a pathetic loser.

DOES. GOD EXIST ?
As I have never been presented with and have no knowledge of any sort
of independently verified or logically valid and sound argument which would
be sufficient and necessary to support any of theclaims that God(s)exist,
should exist.
I am therfore under no obligation to accept any of the claims as haveing any
factual validity or ultimate credibility. In short, I see no reason whatsoever
belief in the construct that God(s ) do exist, should exist or possibly even
could exist. Please demonstrate in detail how my position as stated above
is irrational, illogical or unwarranted.

Atheism is a dogmatic belief in uncertainty
😂 with no eyes don't worry lol
maşALLAH ahi❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
If atheism is unnatural, firstly: Why did Allah wait for Billions of years to pass, followed by millions of years for single-celled organisms to evolve into Homo Sapien, followed by thousands of years for humans to develop civilisations, before he finally revealed himself to one human?
Secondly, why did Allah create the Universe, consisting of billions of galaxies, each consisting of billions of planets (within the observable Universe alone), but chose just one area of one planet to have a relationship with an evolved primate?
Allen had the same level of knowledge that of 6th century desert warlord who made him up
"Why did Allah wait for Billions of years" Allah didn't wait billions of years mate, that was seconds for him, time goes by different for him since he's not within this universe.
"Secondly, why did Allah create the Universe, consisting of billions of galaxies, each consisting of billions of planets"
Stupid statement, he is the creator bro, so he creates whatever he wills and it's to show that the human being is nothing and tiny spec, to humble us and it's also signs of his existence. Atheism really isn't a treat lol, so damn easy to destory
😂
@@ikhlashasib8256 In your quote, you missed out my next bit which is important. The reason I asked that is to point out the illogical nature of the specific God claim.
No one knows the ultimate cause of the “initial state of high density and temperature” our Universe was in before the Big Bang. It could be a creator, it could have existed forever, there could be a Multiverse, it could have come out of nothing via Quantum mechanics or most likely it’s something that we simply cannot conceive.
Muslim apologists will always use arguments for a generic creator then attach it to their own specific Allah. You need positive evidence for a specific claim, the claim here being: A God with specific characteristics and actions within the Quran who has a personal, emotional relationship with an evolved species of primate in one area of one planet, among billions of galaxies, each containing billions of planets (within the observable Universe alone) and cares how much blood is in the meat you consume.
You’re presupposing the conclusion and are now trying to justify it through apologetics. Whereas Science works the other way round; it follows evidence through to the conclusion.
@@mrjayz94 could have come from nothing, then goes onto say quantum mechanics like if that's nothing, that's something mate 🤣🤣, you're already finished, have a good day mate, no sense arguing with someone who cant distinguish between nothing and something, atheism is embarassing, again no wonder its dying out 😂
Polytheism is not Atheism. Atheists are higher in hierarchy than Shia or Christians ✝️ as an occultist if they were good agents in this universe. God may forgive them 🙏 and give them Jenna.
Athiesim is actually at the very bottom of human thought. Those who aspire to have a relationship with God, even if their positions are not sounds are better then those who simply feel we strung out of the mud.

Is this the state of Islamic apologetics? In the first 5 mins, at least 6 incorrect pieces of information. Everything this guy says atheism is, is incorrect. This is anti-intellectualism. This guy does not realize that atheism is a very reasonably defended philosophical position.
Sir, please go and read the works of leading atheist philosophers and their arguments.

Pls prove him wrong instead of your anecdotal statements, I would say no to the notion that atheism is a very reasonably defended philosophically. Atheism is irrational I would say because it refuses to believe in a series of arguments that prove God exist which are valid, sound and can be justified
