Allah.
There's only one word and Muhammad is
his messenger. Allah.
Allah.
There's only one God and Jesus was his
messenger. Allah.
I don't know why I did that. Maybe it's
just to break the ice. amlaykum.
Peace be on to you.
Peace be on to you too.
Thank you very much.
You're welcome
for being with us.
Thank you. It's my pleasure actually. Uh
may Allah reward you for coming all the
way from Chicago.
You too.
And you're welcome in Toronto.
Thank you very much. It's a pleasure to
be here. We want to talk about something
that's very important. Seeking
knowledge. We want to be those who are
in the higher levels. So we want to
worship our creator properly. And you
need the knowledge.
Yes.
Um,
alhamdulillah.
I start with the name of Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala the glorified.
Um, people always ask about what is the
best way or how can I go to the highest
level of paradise?
And if you think about it logically, if
we think about it, the person could for
example, they could pray all their
lifelong, they could fast every day of
their life. They could uh go every
single year to the pilgrimage to Hajj.
They could become rich and then spend
all their money. But really again this
is limited because the person is limited
by the time of their death. The average
person the prophet peace be upon him
told us that the average person's life
uh from among his nation is between 60
and 70 years. So how within that
lifetime the person could go to the
highest level of paradise?
uh our prophet peace be upon him taught
us that if someone
if someone who seek knowledge taught
someone else for example how to pray
then every single time this person prays
the the person whom he taught the the
other person who taught him would get
the reward for it so if I teach hundred
people how to pray and they're praying
all their life on the day of judgment in
my scale if Allah wills I will have the
reward of all the prayers they did
combined so that that way I'm getting
several lifetimes of deeds just by
teaching people knowledge and for that
reason the person one of the best ways
to go to the highest level of paradise
is the person seeks knowledge and
teaches it to people
now you are you actually have an
impressive resume I mean you are
somebody who's been studying Islam for
about 20 years is that correct
in Saudi Arabia some of it was I was in
in elementary school and it was an
Islamic school in Saudi Arabia which
a little bit different curriculum than
the regular school over there. And then
uh alhamdulillah thanks to Allah after
that I graduated and I went to study in
in the university and also as you know
uh because it is mainly the country
where Islam started that there are there
are so many almost in every mosque there
is always lessons of knowledge by what
some of the best scholars in the world.
Yeah.
So, alhamdulillah, the poor slave of
Allah that Allah decreed for him to be
there that I was able to benefit and
take advantage. I think I I I did from
over there.
You got two poor slaves right here.
Slaves of the creator.
We're all prophes. We're proud to be
slaves of the creator and not slaves to
the material world. That's a beautiful
thing, isn't it?
Absolutely. We are all slaves of Allah.
And and this is something we were taught
that the person uh would try to refrain
from the using the word I as much as
possible. So they wouldn't be uh
bragging. It's it's more that everything
good happened to us is because Allah has
decreed it and has given it to us as um
a benefit and as as from his blessings
and we are here to learn and it's a
blessing to have individuals such as
yourself that we can learn from and then
we can put it out to the whole world
that they can benefit from this
knowledge that you have gained.
Alhamdulillah. All praises to the
creator of the heavens and earth. Now
also tell us you have a master's degree
in Islamic studies. I am I'm still
working on a master's degree in Islamic
studies. Uh I finished alhamdulillah uh
thanks to Allah I finished a master's
degree in life skills training.
Great. So we're going to be getting some
good advice inshallah from somebody who
knows this dean this way of life. Tell
us now we have so many people embracing
Islam embracing that way of total
submission surrender not to a man to a
woman but the one who created man and
woman the creator of the heavens and
earth.
Yes. So now
it's very important that people they've
realized that I don't want to worship
anyone but the creator and Muhammad
peace be upon him is the last and final
messenger like Jesus, Moses, Noah and
all the other prophets that preceded
him. They were messengers. They were the
ones they were the way, the truth and
the light showing us how to worship the
creator correctly. This way of life has
been saved.
Mhm.
We have everything that we need to
learn. we don't have to invent things
and make up things on our own. So tell
us for that person and even people
who've been
in this way of life but now they've been
procrastinating a little bit. We want to
create this enthusiasm and show us the
proper way how to start. Let's say
someone just took shahada. Yes.
They just took this testimony of faith.
They're a Muslim now. Yes.
What are the steps? Because I see a lot
of people they come into it and they
still haven't even established the
prayer. Yes.
So what are the some of the tech
techniques? because it can be
overwhelming at times. It's so much
knowledge. How much a day? How much do
you take in so you don't overburden
yourself? Talk to us about this please.
Absolutely. And if you allow me, I would
rewind just a little bit before. What
about someone before they accept Islam
or know about Islam? Seeking knowledge
is for everyone, not just for Muslims.
And what I want to say is
the person first of all, you mentioned
procrastination. This is something the
person should not procrastinate upon
because if the time of your death comes
that's it for you. That's the end of it.
You're you're in this life to be tested.
And how would I know from all the
religions around the world? We you have
Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism,
all these religions and and too many
choices. How could the person know what
is the right religion and what and that
comes by seeking knowledge? Because we
have to know that Allah our creator is
just and he wouldn't just let people in
confusion about the different religions.
There must be there has to be a religion
that is the correct religion among all
of these otherwise the people would not
know how to worship their creator. And
the the only way the person would know
what is this religion is they have to go
and investigate. they they should take
some pride of their life and do this as
soon as possible and try to learn as as
much as they can about different
religions and then they would make the
choice and I know that if a person
sincerely does this without any bias
that they would find the message of
worshiping Allah alone and submitting to
him which we call Islam and which was
the same religion for all for for before
the religion of of of uh prophet
Muhammad the religion of Jesus peace be
upon him and Moses and everyone now
coming to your question about the new
Muslim who just accepted Islam.
Tell me one thing before you go on. Tell
us I want to just ask you one question
in relating to this so we don't have to
rewind again.
Yes.
Does Islam encourage someone who now
might have been brought up as a
Christian as a Hindu and you know what
they're seeing that this whole man god
thing that God is a man God died for my
sins or that the multitude of gods it
doesn't make sense doesn't go with my
nature. Does Islam encourage that people
investigate that? Do we say Islam is it
and that's it? I can't look at anything
else or does Islam encourage that go
ahead look at everything else and you'll
find out by looking at these things that
that's not the truth that this is what
would be the most rational logical and
provides the most evidence can a person
do that
the person Allah when he sent the Quran
yes the message the message there is is
is logical and at the same time it's
challenging the person it actually it
tells the person go and search
oh yeah
go and search and go and see and and you
will find for yourself that for example
when God challenges them could you bring
even one verse by your own first he
challenges them to bring a book like the
Quran then could you bring one verse
like this so the person is being
challenged and in fact the person is is
ordered to reflect and to try to arrive
at the correct solution at the the the
uh solution that will save him on the
day of judgment which is worshiping God
alone now the person obviously if we
have several religions we can't say
they're all right at the same time. It's
impossible because logically if someone
says something this piece of u paper is
white and someone else says it's black
and it only has one color. It either
it's it could be either be that color or
this color.
One is right, one is wrong.
One is right. It can they can be. So if
if if one religion tells me that uh a
man was or Jesus be upon him was was a
messenger. another religion says it's
God and they're contradicting each
other. One of them has to be right. They
can't be both right. We can't say all
religions are right. So the question now
is logic if if we're going to speak
logically it's either um you see they're
either all wrong or one of them has to
be right. There is no other uh third
argument. So in that case what is the
right one? The person has to uh do a a
search and learn the knowledge of of
several and then they would as I said
because God is just they would if they
are sincerely doing this without any
bias they would have to find what is the
correct religion.
Now if a person says you know what all
religions are the same. What do you
respond to this with? They say they're
all this is all man-made.
Well one of the claims that we hear
often is that all religions preach good.
So it doesn't matter if I follow one or
the other. But really upon examining the
religions more thoroughly, we would see
that yes, all religions maybe will tell
you uh don't lie, don't steal. But how
what's the correct solution?
How could we achieve a society that
would not do all these wrongdoings?
There has to be a system and this system
we have to take it as a whole. We can't
break one part of it and do the other.
So in this case uh if if someone tells
about uh for example uh Islam about the
the punishment for for thieves someone
might say well this is injustice but
wait a minute what about for the zaka
which was it is the the charity that the
person has to give it's an obligation on
him to give every year that is enough
they said it's enough to fulfill all the
the poverty in the world which was
calculated to be close to 2 and a half%
the the same that is dictated in Islam.
So we have to apply it as a system and
Islam is different because it gives you
a solution. It doesn't just tell you
this thing is wrong, stay away from it
or this thing is right. It's a whole
system that works and it has worked. It
has been tested. It's not something
we're going to test and see if it works
or not. And we see this when when Islam
wanted to uh make uh alcohol forbidden
because it it causes as you see it's the
number one cause of crime in in in the
developed country and in the world. So
if the person uh they tried in the
United States in in close to the 30s
they tried for several years to ban it
and people protested and did all these
things and it didn't stop them. But
Islam in a three-stage process, it was
able, it made people from within
themselves stop completely to drink.
Yeah.
So that way Islam shows us that it has
the solutions. It doesn't just tell you
this is wrong or this is right.
It gives practical solutions for
practical problems that are going on. It
makes sense.
Yes. And there is no problem except
there is a solution for it in either you
find it in the Quran or the book of the
Muslims or the the Sunnah the the
narrations of the prophet or it is
derived from these two sources by
analogy.
Now I was told you were actually born in
the US.
I was born yes in Lancing Michigan.
Lancing Michigan. And now you live in
Canada.
Now I live in Canada. I moved recently
to Canada. I was in u uh Ohio about uh
two years ago and I just moved to Canada
recently.
Okay. Tell us now this is very
interesting. So if a person goes out,
he's sincere, he wants to know the
truth, he asks the creator, guide me. I
want to know my purpose in life and he
starts to investigate eventually he'll
be guided to Islam. Surrender and
submission to the creator of the heavens
and earth without any associates. Makes
sense, huh?
Absolutely. Because because once you
compare and you see this was the only
religion in the world that was preserved
and in fact look at any uh scripture and
this is not our sayings. The people for
who follow those religions, they say
that the scriptures has been modified in
one way or the other. Where the Quran,
we have it in its entirety letter for
letter, word for word, dot for dot.
It's saved. It's not corrupted. It's not
altered, edited by man.
It's not edited by man at all. We do
have uh translations is something
different where someone is translating
their thoughts. But we have the
original. The original was not lost like
many other religions. We have the
original in the Arabic language in its
entirety. So when the Muslims those who
have submitted themselves to their
creator say that we have a living
miracle.
Yes.
Give us another point because you just
told us about this miraculous nature
that people can go and check the
authenticity of this book. Tell us
something else that comes to mind for
someone who's maybe involved in science
or something tangible that he can go
test this with.
Yes. First, if we talk about a miracle,
notice that all prophets and all
messengers sent by God uh peace on them,
peace be upon them, they were they they
they came with a miracle so that people
would know if they are genuine prophet
or not. Now, all those miracles we
haven't witnessed any of them and there
is only one of them left. For example,
you could tell me about uh the division
of the sea that happened that was the
miracle of Moses peace be upon him. You
could tell me about the miracles of
Jesus or someone else, but I didn't see
them.
Mhm.
So for me, that's not a proof because I
didn't see them. And had the Quran did
not tell me about it, I wouldn't believe
it. But this because the Quran told me,
I believe it now for a person who is
living now and there is no more prophets
coming. How would I know if Islam was
the genuine religion? That's why for
that reason, God the final miracle is is
the Quran, the word of God. It's
preserved. so that all the nations that
would come after would be able to be
guided to the correct religion. So this
is a miracle that lives on forever. Now,
now in terms of the miracles in the
Quran, there are so many types for so
many different people. There is logical
uh miracles, there is linguistic
miracles, there is even uh laws of
society, miracles and the laws of
society. There is scientific miracles
and the person could easily search for
for these miracles either through a book
or through the internet. Now there's no
excuse for anyone not to seek the
knowledge. Knowledge now is just uh a
few clicks away from you. So go and seek
from authentic sources and see
where there's this is going to guide you
and and try to ask put some questions
that you have about the purpose of life
and all these things and try to do maybe
you could put it even in in in a sheet
or Excel file. Try to compare this
religion says this, this religion says
this and then at the end see which one
is the one that is compatible, the one
that is more logical, the one that is is
has no mistakes here and there. You
cannot find any mistake in the Quran as
God challenge
can't have no contradiction because it
can't be from the creator.
Yes. If it has even one mistake, it's
not from the creator. Absolutely.
People already are benefiting from this
knowledge, God willing. And this is the
importance of gaining knowledge because
now many people if they're sincere
they're going to be enlightened and
hopefully God willing they're going to
continue on coming back every week and
doing some more investigating. Now tell
us for those who have we did a reverse
now we're going to come back to where we
were. Those that have acknowledged that
there is no deity worthy of worship
except the creator of the heavens and
earth in Arabic we say Allah.
Yes.
And then Muhammad is the last and final
messenger. And then you accept when you
make the statement Jesus, Moses, Noah
and all the other messengers because God
almighty sent the same message. Submit
to him alone.
Yes.
And this is summed up with one word
Islam, isn't it?
Yes. Islam means submit.
So now tell us for that person who has
taken the first step. Some people they
drift off. There's a lot of delights, a
lot of distractions of this world and
they don't continue on seeking knowledge
or sometimes we get forgetful. Give us
some advice for those who have come to
this realization. give us some practical
tips.
I'll give you exactly a narration
from the prophet peace be upon him that
this actually tells us exactly where the
person who newly became Muslim and
accepted the message how they would
start in their seeking knowledge. The
prophet peace be upon him sent the
companion.
He sent him to at that time the country
of Yemen.
Yes. And he wanted him, they were
recently becoming Muslims and he wanted
to give them a guideline. So he told
him, "This is your mission. First go to
them." I'm just I'm just translating or
elaborating on on the hadith, not doing
a literal translation. He said, "Go to
the people of Yemen and teach them and
tell them the first thing, which is what
we call the shahada, that there is no no
true God except Allah and that Muhammad
is his messenger. And if and only if if
they follow you in this statement, then
the next step is tell them that God has
decreed on them five prayers that they
must establish in the day and in the
night." Five times a day, the Muslims
pray. And this is what we call is is
this is uh the the pillar of Islam
because this is as they say this is the
pass or fail criterion. If you pray
you will then based on your other deeds
you may go to paradise or go partially
in hell for for any um sins that you did
that were unforgiven or major sins and
then you go to paradise.
But if you didn't pray them then you
you're not guaranteed the salvation.
Yes. And then if they follow you in this
then tell them that God has ordered you
to give a percentage of your money to
the poor. Not from your income of what
you make but the leftovers at the end of
the year. Yes. Leftover. So I make
100,000 and I spent it all. I don't have
to give anything. But I made less than
that 50,000 and and at the end of the
year I have 10,000 left. So that means
that's spare money that I don't need. So
only two and a half% of that amount I
would give to the poor which is very
little very easy. And if they do this
then tell them that God has decreed on
them to fast one month a year which is
the month of uh Ramadan from uh down to
sunset which is which puts there's a lot
of benefits for it. That's not the focus
of our talk but it it it's it's it's a
training for self-discipline for the
person. When the person learns how to
stop and do something that is
permissible which is uh food and drink
you learn for 30 days stop go stop go
this in the same way you are able to do
this then you are even more trained to
do that with things that are unlawful or
unpermissible I could easily stop myself
from stealing from doing adultery from
doing anything else because I trained
for something that is even permissible
and then if they do that then the the
the last pillar which is the pilgrimage
once in your lifetime you go to Mecca if
you could afford it and if you have the
necessary uh conditions to do it if if
you can't afford it drops from you so
it's a very simple religion to follow
these are the five main pillars and you
just have to stay away from the unlawful
anything more than that is to increase
your level in paradise
now after this shahada the testimony the
swearing about no other deity but the
one true god Allah and Muhammad is the
last and final messenger and the prayer
comes next. This is very important.
What should a new Muslim
do as far as the prayer? Does he have to
instantly know everything the opening
chapter, the what to say in prostration
or does he just have to go through the
movements? Give us some techniques on a
daily regimen. How much time should he
spend learning the prayer? Should he
start learning the prayer right away?
Tell us how he should set it up so he
can have something more structured so
it's easier on him. Now to elaborate on
on what I just said, the same steps in
in in that were mentioned in the
narration are the same steps for the
person when they start seeking
knowledge. Once they know the correct
religion and the correct concept of God,
they learn about the prayer and Allah
has told us in the Quran that the person
that Allah does not decree on the person
what they are not able to do.
So there's no excuse now. I got work, I
got college that it's too hard.
There's no excuse. Plus the person could
learn step by step. If something they
can't learn or can't grasp now they
could learn it step by step. There is
there is no force in this. The person
just has to try their best. They would
first learn how how to pray which is
something very simple. They would learn
the movements. They would learn just a
few words. They could do it in in in
their language until they learn how to
recite it in in in Arabic. Very simple
short passages. they would know the
meaning of it outside of their prayer
their salah they could pray to god
directly in whatever language they want
but inside and also this is a symbol
because this is the religion uh the
language of the religion to be preserved
that the person has to know just just
minimum just enough so that they would
be tied to the original message the
original language this is not a language
that died like Latin or anything else
this is a language that is still alive
and spoken by spoken as the first
language by a quarter uh billion people
and spoken as a second language by at
least 1 billion people.
So this is a miracle in itself that
you're learning the original language
that the message was revealed in because
we don't have the original message that
was revealed to Jesus peace be or Moses.
They didn't speak English, did they?
No.
No. So now as soon as you translate it
over to another language, you lose the
meaning and a lot of things. So you're
learning the original language that it
was revealed in step by step. And we
have to know when we read a translation,
we're reading the understanding of that
translator, that person of the message,
which could be uh uh it could be
accurate, could be a little bit
inaccurate. It could be they're they're
translating from one perspective,
someone else translate from a different
perspective. But when you have the
original, anyone who challenges me about
uh or challenges the person about the
translation, we could go back to the
original and see what did this language
mean. And since people still speak
Arabic until today, it's very easy to
check this. So we would know how this
message is applied. Something that is
very beautiful about the Quran is God
has made it so that the religion is
applicable in every time and the place
in the past now and in the future. We
have fixed parts uh fixed laws. These
will not change with time. Stealing was
was wrong and unlawful. It will always
be unlawful. It's not going to change in
the future and become lawful. However,
we also have flexible parts of the
religion that
that could be uh adapted to the invi to
the place where people are and to the
time. So, for example, the laws of
buying and selling. Now, in the past, we
were using uh gold and silver. Now, we
could use uh papers, we could use
checks. These are are are very flexible
because they are applied within culture.
The clothing we have general outline,
but also there is a cultural element in
it. the person could wear whatever is
people wear in their region. So that's
why this is why this religion is
appiable in all times and all places
because you have the fixed part which
doesn't change and you have the part
that could be adaptable and how do we
adapt it not to our whims and desires we
go back to the original message in
Arabic and see could we take that ruling
out of that verse or that hadith or not
this is amazing another proof about
proof that this is the way of life that
is left for all of mankind until the day
of judgment. Couple more points.
Yes.
Before we come to an end. The benefits,
some of the benefits and some of the
good things, the wisdom that comes from
establishing this prayer. Can you talk
about this quickly? Establishing this
prayer is this is the connection with
God. And the person because they have to
face God. They have to stand in front of
God five times a day. So I know I can't
really do anything in between that is
unlawful. How am I going to do something
that is wrong? How am I going to steal?
How am I going to look at something I
shouldn't look at or or do adultery or
anything when I know that just a couple
of hours I'm I'm going to stand in front
of God. How am I even going to have that
face? So So by establishing the prayer
on time, uh I'm having the
self-discipline of time. I'm also having
reminding myself always my connection
with God that I shouldn't do something
wrong. I might fool people when there is
no cameras, there is nothing. I could do
whatever I want in a locked room, but
God is watching me. So I know this
because I'm going to stand in front of
him. That's number one. Number two, it's
also it's it's a way of uniting us all.
We're all praying towards the same
place, Mecca. We're all we come five
times and we go to at least the the men,
they go to the uh to the mosque to the
house of worship and they meet meet each
other and they ask about each other. How
is your family? If someone is missing, I
would know that this person might be
sick. I have to go and visit them. uh I
I I would establish those ties
family community
the family and the community and then on
a bigger scale uh the Friday prayer
which is the special uh Friday prayer
prayer with the speech and then even on
a bigger scale in Hajj and pilgrimage
people come from all over the world to
meet in this one place from all
different races. So by establishing the
prayer this reflects on my whole life my
connection with God. It also makes me
feel safe that whatever bad things
happen to me in this world I still have
my connection with God. So, I know that
no matter what happens, I'm going to be
compensated on the day of judgment. But
if I don't establish the prayer, I don't
know. I I've just cut my relationship
with God.
Yeah.
And this is if I cut my relationship
with God, how am I going to feel safe?
I'm driving, I'm going to be scared all
the time that, you know, I'm fall into
an accident and die
and I'm not guaranteed salvation. So,
that's the problem.
So, salvation when you establish the
prayer,
when I say salvation, I have to define
it. So our non-Muslim uh audience would
not misunderstand.
Every Muslim who accepts Islam and
accepts that there is no God but the
true God will be guaranteed salvation.
Meaning they will go to paradise as long
as they don't associate or worship
someone else with God. However, going to
paradise directly is another story. If I
if I become Muslim and I'm still a bad
person doing all wrong things, no, I'll
have to get punished in hellfire.
Eventually I will go to paradise because
I accepted the message but I'm not
guaranteed to go directly unless I be
become a very good person in my whole
life. And this is really different than
when we say that someone died for your
sins. All your sins are forgiven
automatically and then I could do
whatever I want.
So this is different. Being a Muslim
makes me want to reach perfection in
every single aspect of my life.
So establishing the truth and then
acting upon it. Doing the good that the
creator told you to do your whole life.
Self-development.
Yes. self-development plus I'm not just
it's not one paradise fits all no I I
want to get there's different levels for
different if I work hard and someone
else is is procrastinating or lazy it

heart.
[Music]
I'm your sinful slave.
You're my loving Lord.
I'm the one who runs away.
Oh Allah, guide me.
