all right this leades a this leades a a pretty organized day for us tomorrow tomorrow basically we're going to talk about all you know ways of refuting arguments ways of explaining Concepts ways of convincing people and then we're going to work on the questions and we'll do some reenactments you know generally you know it's it's not permissible for one Muslim to play the role of a CAF okay it's not permissible at all even as a joke even as acting to say you know I'm a c you can't that's why a lot of times people come
to me after the workshop you should have had one brother pretend to be a CF no no no no no you know it's the one thing that's more hated to us than anything on Earth is Ku so we don't pretend to be anything or speak like a one time some sisters were doing da training one of them already Hada the kind of she would make do 50 times for Salah and she had like ad0 or not add um OCD and she plays the role of the kaf so she's calling me up I played the role
of the CF and now I think I'm a CF yeah why did you even do that you already have these issues with and stuff just couldn't have pick the wronger a wrer person to do that um look now someone said something to me I put a note now I forgot what that means learn it says learn here what do we talk about okay what do we talk about oh yeah okay someone else all right um there's a anyone know much about Mormons here yeah okay right there's for those who don't know you just go on
YouTube and you write down Mormon band cartoon oh yeah and just watch that and in 10 minutes you're going to learn so much about the Mormon faith and it would be so easy for you to talk to any Mormon from that day forward so go on YouTube Mormon band cartoon 10-minute cartoon you watch it explains their belief about God that belief is not in the Book of Mormon by the way it's in what book anyone know the other book anyone else know the the name of this book just one person in the room anyone else
what's the name of that book pearls the pearl of great price why doesn't anyone know this name everybody knows the Book of Mormon because it's loaded with these embarrassing beliefs the stuff you'll see in the cartoon it's from that book the pearl of great price they never talk to you about the pearl of great price because it's too embarrassing you have to go through a process of desensitization before they tell you the stuff in the pearl of great price you'll see why when he wants that cartoon okay so he wants a cartoon it's going to
be I mean would you imagine that watch a cartoon and you'll be able to give good that why Tom and Jarry right so that's as far as that the brother is saying that when you have a booth if someone's being argumentative you're saying look we're just out here where this is Islam award this week and we're talking to people about Islam you're at a DA table someone comes up to you and they know you're going to invite them to your religion you know and so they know also that you can use the table as an
excuse well you we have this table here we've got materials and we're all trying to let people know about Islam and so people can know one another you know all that sweet talk and people like oh yes you know open broaden your minds widen Your Horizon whatever they say okay great that's it so on argumentative you just say look we're here to share information that's all okay umth I still have something it says learn here I put it to remind myself something oh oh yeah you could probably also tell the person who being argumentative that
you know uh that you know it's all about education knowledge is power and the more you know the better and you know we're living in a global village all that fancy thought you give it right back to them the stuff that they just give back you know Global Village you know knowing one another Co peaceful coexistence all that fancy talk let them have it so then they want to they feel okay well maybe I need to broen my horizons and not be argumentative and listen to what this guy is saying we're going to do an
exercise right now that I like very much it's I call it the because it's based on a booklet that I written many years ago never published called it the virtual book got a lot of virtual books out from well non author virtual landb you know so it's called the senseless evasion of the Muhammad equation it's it's a technique that well I don't want to say I developed it because actually after developing it I discovered that the that the classical Scholars have developed it and there many books on the same topic and so on and so
forth so it's not mine really but it's it's a way of proving either the existence of Allah or the veracity of the message of Muhammad wasam through analyzing his life and his teachings and his sayings and his actions it's a very simple premise and it it started uh I first did it so many years ago there was a Muslim guy he wanted to marry an atheist obviously you can't marry her until she becomes Muslim or Christian or Jewish but I'm not going to give her da to become Jewish or Christian so he said can you
prove to her that Allah exists I said actually that's that's a very easy thing if she's willing to listen so we sat down and we proved the existence of Allah just through by analyzing the life of Muhammad Ali wasallam we're going to do the exercise together now it starts off like this this is the this is the the premise or the idea behind it is that with the prophet s alaihi wasallam we have two options right only two only two not three not four that he was one a genuine prophet of Allah or that two
that you were an imposter okay these are the only two someone want to argue for a third one he was either genuine or he was not genuine anyone want to argue a third one that's saying that oh like he's not genuine whether he thinks he is or not yeah exactly he's not genuine I he's genuine prophet got a message from Allah or he's not genuine he made it up he heard from a devil copied from another religion whatever it is everyone agree great so this is what you do with the non-muslim this is the case
I he was genuine I he was not genuine now if if a if a false prophet now if someone entered this room right now and he said look people I'm the prophet of Allah now obviously we know there's no Prophet coming after Muhammad wasallam no new prophet so if someone walked in this room put that aside could you ask them questions to find out if they were genuine or not yes or no yes yes now would it take you a long time to discover if they were genuine or not yeah long time no very short
period of time right give me examples of a question you might ask this person yes sir how do you know your Propet okay how do you know your Prophet there's no wrong answer whatever question you would like to ask yes sir how did you receive the message how did you receive the message what are you looking for here I'm exactly that's a good question you see how it's a good question who who brought you the message what's the name of the Angel who brought you the message you might say well it was like El or
something like that you're right what if he tells you you know is or is or something what do you tell them it's actually not even authentic that it's the name of the angel of death but on top of that the one that usually visits prophets Isel so if they give you any name but jel you have you know you have a problem what else what other question could you ask yes sir perform a miracle can you perform a miracle please one time we met a guy he said I'm Divine we said fly he got upset
said why is it every time I tell people I'm God he tell me to fly because you should fly what you expect you're God you should fly all right what else other question don't tell me this guy will walk in this room and stump us yes sir you know the do you know when is the day of judgment are you sure because a genuine Prophet wouldn't know it either oh so you're saying what if he said yes it's on April okay yes sir to resurrect someone okay some miracle yes we're done with Miracles yes well
you know CU you're a prophet I think you should live wealthy so I'm going to raise you a millions of dollars for you so you can have a big mansion and if he agrees to that then it's not problem okay and if he doesn't agree he's probably dinner and Propet yes I just have questions that like all these things are things that are found in Islam so how would that convince an atheist which things like um no just just stay with us in our scenario here our specific scenario I guy walked into this room I'm
a prophet of Allah what questions would we ask him to see if he's genuine or false who's you know who's the the the angel that spoke to you uh Hamza ask him to recite your his Revelation to okay I want to hear your message right and what are you really looking for something that like agrees with the past uhhuh good so what if I tell him what's your number one message he says my number one message is that blank blank blank and it's something besides to you know for a fact he's not a prophet why
all the prophets the number one message was every single one of them yes sir what's your book what's your book okay it tells you it's called the you know the I don't know the a kiwii huh so you won't be convinced because of the name of the book the ban is the name of book called the ban okay it's a name yes sir the physical signs like well the mark because we were aware that would look like that so what if he tells you I'm one of those prophets with no marks what questions would you
ask to find if this person who's genuine or false yes sir ask what's your bloody name he tells you so huh because you don't like the name it's a nice name has a nice ring to it yes s okay good what else by the way there is no wrong question your name is probably a good question too yeah maybe ask he's in line with them it's probably a good thing if he's not probably a bad thing what do you think of the other prophets ah I'm the only real one okay you can probably X them
up okay last on yes who's is that me or is that somewhere else that's you how how touching it up look too much reverb when I put it hey what um who is God okay does he believe that muhamad was the last of okay as said like all of the prophets has been Shepherds something like that uhuh so we're just going to point like what's I like that what what's your experience about what's your exper what's the job I'm a stock broker second thing is said all all the prophets have warned their people about theel
right so just started man give me a minute I'll tell you about him tomorrow I just started but you're right excellent the brother's using Hadith signs and Prophets and what what about his lineage you know are you from the lineage of ibraim you know so great excellent that means then we can ask certain questions and find out if someone is a genuine Prophet or not can we do that about a prophet in the past if we have a lot of information about them yes so we said with the prophet we have two options either he
was genuine Prophet or he were an impostor using what we know of his sayings and teachings and so on we can definitely come to a conclusion if it was genuine or not genuine and you can do this this is the exercise that you actually do you you only need a pen a piece of blank paper and the cafer I like that like approves people approves so you need a pen a paper and a CET and this is to do with the exercise you explain the two choices that's number one the two choices either there a
genuine Prophet or not a genine prophet then number two we talk about you describe the environment in which the prophet showed up in you know pre-islamic Arabia the Customs the wars the fighting the things the tribalism how they held certain things very dear they would fight over the most ridiculous thing 30 Years War over the most ridiculous thing so now in this environment I hope you're taking notes because this is exactly how you do this exercise in this ex environment this what you're telling the non-muslim a person is going to pretend to be a prophet
in this environment people fight Wars over the most ridiculous thing he's going to challenge their gods their Idols their status in in Arabia what he has to have a motive he knows they're probably going to assassinate him go to war against him hate him try to kill him all these things what would he he must have a strong motive so what could his motive be and here is when you start writing so number one someone give us a motive yes sir money money so everybody write down money time it's couldn't get any worse so I'm
not going to write down you write now money okay someone else yes sir power and women power and wom those are two so power three women thank you for saying women now because you have to pull it out of people so money power women what else yes sir wealth money what else status status okay so power SL status money SL wealth fame fame put it in your power status uh-huh retribution retribution for what anything money H retribution for something like Tri okay retributions very good what else sister is just thank you very much yes yes
mad man may just mad attention attention Okay Fame attention maybe he EnV else uh so you can put you know Envy or just just pure evil whatever it is whatever the non-muslim tells you you write it down someone once said from outter space write it down yes he might actually be a prophet okay well that we're saying now we already saw they said these are the two options where pursuing the path of him being not a true Prophet what would his possible motive be he has to have some strong motive because they he knows they're
going to fight him and try to kill him but you're right that's on the other side anything else why would he pretend to be a Prophet by the way you know with mad man you can put schizophrenic right or epileptic sorry schizophrenic also yeah possessed by a gin so possessed put that down sko SK i t s o yes um my great joke made you forget it try to regain lost land like a king or a a from a kingly things like that okay so he's trying to regain some kind of Legacy some kind of
old Heritage or some old dominion of his parents or something like that jealousy jealousy we have that right Envy jealousy okay anything else people n just just a just a problem maker just wants to divide people possible I mean whatever people say write it down no matter how ridiculous yes sister okay so someone like confuscious just wants to improve just wants to help things you know make things better right very possible write it down what else yes M puppet n puppet like the puppet like there's someone else moving moving people say like that right uhhuh
so someone else behind him so he actually it Okay aw so it's being edged on by someone else so write that down all right you would stop or keep going power n political power political power okay last one n manipulation just wants to manipulate people feel control last one uh desire to cause corruption on land okay so he like the people that run M now America I mean kidding all right I think I had to buch te morning is that extra C okay now what you do you let the people you let them empty out
whatever is in their heart put any possible motive and then what you do you go back using what you know of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and of his sayings and his and his brother I think someone's waiting for you inside I think yeah so just the brother just the brother for him so what happens now you go through these possible motives one by one and see are they plausible or not right did you write down Martian Alien all that cuz someone said it once fine put it down whatever they say put it down okay
so then let's start with the easy ones so he pretended to be a prophet in Arabia because he wanted money now you start to refute it that why it couldn't have been because of money that he pretended to be a prophet such as yes he of course he was not like hugey person that he has there's proof from that he has R behind W or something if that was the case then he could do that with all the wealth has been given to him for for Zak and then for the resps for Muslims and things
like that you're 100% right give me specific examples this incident that incident Z he was actually offered they they they came to him and said look if it's money you want we'll give you all the money you want if it was women we'll give you I'll stop you there because I'll have to repeat it all of bit anyway so the came to him at the beginning of his call and offered him if it's money you want we'll give you money if it's Women will'll Marry You to the best looking woman if you want leadership we'll
let you become a leader and the proam refused something else very good Z something else specific uh sh uh for Mad Men possessed by a no no sorry we're just on money now we're taking one at a time but you're ahead of us that's good ahed he died so when he died there were like seven Dirhams left and that's not an indication of someone who wanted money something else specific like that yes his room's room was like a look at the size of's room yeah so seven arms length and you know and you know Palm
stocks and mud walls branches to cover and and a blanket to stop the rain from coming in broken pot a pillow filled with palm Fiber One blanket that's the bed where's the we specific example let's do um you can tell like like a story of one when he was CAU by by Roman general first the general offered him I'll I'll I'll marry my daughter and give you half my wealth and he said no he said then I'll kill you like I do this man and uh and he actually like fight a person in in in
like uh boiling oil and he still said no right and then he was about to throw him in and and like like he refused all that wealth so so like from his teachings is that is that is that okay this this was what he established with okay that's good so if his followers were refusing wealth it's possible that he was also not one after wealth yes one time he came to the house and he he when he opened the door saw there was nothing there of substance fiber Maps uhuh so then he started to cry
and said that the King of Persia I'm sorry I'm cutting you off because get yeah when we get the point because I want to finish the exercise before the end of the day so very good excellent yes sir it's also about when he could have taken all the wealth and use it for luxury and like that he did not the brother saying he could have used the world for luxury just on that point itself a little before that he was already wealthy when he was before he became a prophet true or false very wealthy he
became poor after becoming a prophet that really goes against the plan right what else what the story me is not know that even if it's WR in an Islamic book or so it's corre okay got I'm actually going to have to answer that one how you answer that one tomorrow just so we can keep with the flow but it is a it's a very good question what do they say I don't know this bukari and Muslim you're talking about so that's why you have to actually give some kind of explanation to how authentic Hadith are
and so on we'll probably do that tomorrow okay some give me some specific things about wealth in the prophet yes okay if if he was going for money as the as Islam grew his money would would uh would increase but he said that he started he was rich initially and his money went down soly uh I believe there's ath near the end of his life he mortgaged his armor get some food for uh uh for his family but at that time he was the head of a state right basically compens almost all very strong point
IIM there's a I don't know said that if I had it days it give it away give me examples of actual times when he gave away all right sorry so would give you know tens of thousands of camels and goats and herds to people after battles know 10 you know 70,000 give it out 10,000 give it out to the poor you know he just keep giving and giving and giving well he lived in a state of poverty even the problem that happened with his wives was related to them asking for for a higher stipend or
higher salary he still refused to the point where it caused him problems and imagine now someone gives you $70,000 cash and you distribute all of it and you go home and tell you wife give us me 70,000 and I distribute the whole thing and then she gets upset with it why don't you bring us some look at the condition that we're living in so that how about when asked when she told him that for two months there would be no fire lit In The House of the prophet he asked her how did you survive she
said dates in water so all these things you keep listing them and listing them and you see that he wasn't you can easily cross out money that he wasn't after money one more thing every one of these motives think of it as it relates to the Quran okay we're talking about an impostor who obviously would have to write his own Quran how would money be reflected in the Quran someone tell us he's an impostor that's his motive and he wrote the Quran yes give me more money that's what it would say you know bring you
know of some money to their Prophet make sure you know the prophet's taken care of bring your wealth to the prophet you know what about the 1 The Spoils of War is not saying he give it to Allah and his messenger so it's not a sign that he wanted money it huh but is it a sign no because what happens to that 1/5th of this Spoils of War they give it to the poor it's not for the prophet personally so you understand how you know then now we can everybody can ex out money you can
prove to them it wasn't about money right next what's which one you would do so money wealth is out we've got power status Fame attention how do how can we attention how can we prove it wasn't about any of these give me specific incidents ahed said that we'll worship your God for one year so during that year he could have been you know the old powerful right in the area yes sir uh when he said if they put the sun on my right hand and the moon on my left hand I wouldn't give up this
message okay okay yes sir you came in can was here by the way sorry can was here no I apologize okay you would go into a room where the Prophet s were sitting in you wouldn't know which one the prophet give me a second excellent point let's just think about that point a little bit so the Arab comes and he has he can't tell which one he come to the m of the prophet he can't tell which one is the leader so he has to ask Muhammad can you believe that can you walk into any
room now or in any religion and not know who the big shot is if you ever heard of someone walking to the king's court and talking to the jester at your your highness center it's so clear who the King is who the big shot is from the way they sit from the way they dress buildings now when you walk in the architecture of the room tells you who's the big shop all the chairs facing that one if you go to a you know a meeting room can you tell where the the CEO sits or the
chairman of the board yeah because he's the one who has the chair with the arms uh the arm what do you call armrests on it you know it's at the head of the table so you you can tell easily you know you go into any religious establishment there's a guy at the door he's got a hat like this you go further inside he's got a hat like this further inside the guy's got this huge hat is breaking his neck that's the guy who's a Chu the biggest cloak the longest scepter whatever it is but the
prophet said it couldn't have been that he was after power Fame for or something like that because he would sit like the companions dressed like the Companions and it's so clear that yes oh it's like [Music] whenever initi project he used to take part in the project like as physically like as the thinking of the trench building the mid excellent he used to like separate himself from anything else so the brother saying would physically take part in diing the trench building the Masid he did all this work yesing excellent for being so insightful never heard
that one before he used no power F political power control and he uses sh consultation excellent sh will get to you now his uh people his successors uh they were they lived brly as well they didn't uh from the to the generals excellent they didn't they didn't do anything even though they conquered EMP so you use and even they live this this type of life and and of course as well and even actually more authentic narration so excellent uh yes about power about power and status and fame the B he fought any other okay people
EXC so you get me idea now we'll take the last one ham you had to hand up for a while during the I said we don't want the messenger of Allah on the on the contract he actually own hand erased ited it so that's something excellent did you hear that sisters the treat ofia he said we don't want Muhammad he erased it with his own hand okay great uh how how ahed on time are we doing half an hour yes give it exact it's not an issue try to end on time all right let's do
the next one women you're ready go ahead I didn't mean that the bad way I don't know you're laughead didn't get married till he was 25 and he didn't get married again till after his first wife have until he's over like 50 great but don't skip any point you skip some important points there so the accusation is that you're you know you're saying he pretended to be a prophet because he wanted women that's his whole motive to pretend to be a prophet he wanted woman so Muhammad is saying didn't get married until he was 25
that's first thing all right second thing there's one more which is what he limited he limited the number of okay but there's one more let's stay with yes she was 15 years old she was 15 years older right she was 40 no woman iser does that woman eyes always goes younger right so then first he was 25 second thing she was 40 let's stay withad people we're staying withad okay so the sister staying with she saying that remained with only for a while that's another Point stay with please yes was the one who actually sent
the proposal for wedding to excellent point not the way womanize it works she proposed to him staying withad she was was that what everybody else was going to say she was widowed twice excellent yes shut up uh he he was he worked under her he wasn't uh her boss she was his boss and he didn't uh like steal her wealth or abuse her wealth okay does explain link that to him not being a womanizer if he was a womanizer he would just use her okay very good you see how we this is just now already
made like five points just from this wedding you want to go to the next step next wedding or next yeah to who was it to first of all Yes um first he only married um after khad he married the wives that uh their husbands were killed okay that's true that's very true but I just want to go in order just so it's easy for us so he married how old was she years narrations go anywhere from 50 to 65 years old right that's one she was older two she was also widowed right she was married
to if I'm not mistaken I think right right uh then what else about okay uh she was also the only one of the wives of the propham that was not known or celebrated for her exquisite beauty okay she's of the all the wife she's the only one not known to be extremely beautiful the rest were all known to be extremely beautiful people you go now on the internet you find Muslims who have written books saying they were all not known for beauty they were all unattractive what's the matter and there's not a brother in the
room he wants a beautiful wife but you want your Prophet to to have all and 11 women who are not attracted that's not true but they're just trying to move it away from having any kind of any beauty or sexual connotation so they say the mothers of the Believers were unattractive we don't bend the truth to suit some kuar who run after beautiful woman all their life what are we ashamed of so we don't say things like that ever so uh so as some of the people were saying yes all of them were except for
all of them were widowed or divorced or um some of them were married for social reasons some of them for human reasons like so it is said she had no place to stay the prop married her brought her into his home uh some of them had a DA benefit like the the marriage of to the daughter of Abu sufyan her name was the which other ones that was related to marrying the daughter of a leader of a tribe very good excellent now the weddings that showed the status of the father of when you it also
showed the position ofak when he married showed the position of yeah um I just wanted to interject that all these all the reputations have Muslim con like they're from the Muslim right because obviously that's where the majority of the information is so we're saying look at the information available we're using that to analyze now we need to we need to reassure them that this information is very authentic because of time we're doing that tomorrow so first you're proving to them look this is where we get our info from all right you can trust it and
now we use it to say look could he could he have been a genuine Prophet or not um uh where was I yeah which wedding had to do Witham and and religious Revelation Z right great so now we're starting to see when you look at it you don't see this trend of someone who's a woman you see someone exactly the contrary of that yeah anything else you want to add to the to the marriages of the Prophet that he wasn't about women blink it now to the teachings to the Quran just like we did with
money yes two of the two of the marriages were okay which two and z z is actually the easier one right so AA and Z yes if he was just using them for sexual reasons why are they called the mother of the Believers okay and why they just who said the put a limit the Quran put a limit and says you know that that it's not permissible for you to marry after this why put an end to it and why 11 if you're making up the dean and you're a womanizer and that's why you made
up the dean disguise the limit right what about the teachings the Quran an impostor of course would write it and their motive would be reflected you have to write that down the motive would be reflected in his teachings because he made it up Quran the environment he was in before is actually much easier to do any type of womanizing so right so why make it a religion that restricts it and then what about the message what would his message say if he wrote the Quran with that motive in mind yes S I think you're saying
with the Quan said the men are to take care of women that's not a writing of a womanizer right he doesn't want to take care womanizer doesn't want to take care of anybody right specifically what would the Quran say yes inheritance about the Wom possibly uhhuh you're not wrong yeah go ahead huh what would Z be excellent what else it's like why the hij issue should be enforced because they need to woman be exposed at womanizer okay womanizer probably want woman uncovered why hijab anything else would would just like with the money people with the
Quran what would it say if he wrote it for the sake of money it would say bring your money to the prophet yeah good and if it was for women again it would say you know let let them be blessed by the prophet yeah this is now happening in Muslim lands all right where the she you know that would say you know let me bless your wife this night and the Sheik would bless her and the Govern pick her up in the morning Muslim countries Arab countries this is happening okay so it would have been
this is just some so-called sh so this if this person was an imposter Prophet it would be so much easier for him to do things like that you know and possibly blessing people left and right but this not the case here but so we can easily now cross out women but what else uh we said mad man possessed schizophrenic how do we refute those yes said didn't know him as a speech of even right excellent so what you're going to do you're going to use the same arguments in the Quran or you're going to say
look if he were a Madman or a skitzophrenic because one time this this person was telling me that have you ever thought what if he was someone an epileptic when he went into epileptic seizures he he heard voices when he revived he said well this is the Quran he heard these voices and that's what he came up with how he came up with this religion so I mean it's in his mind it's a possibility I to refute it so I told him listen since the time before the prophet and after his time until today how
many epileptics have lived and died he said maybe tens of thousands maybe hundreds of thousands said okay of all these thousands upon thousands of epileptics and all of them having their seizures not one ever again in the history of mankind when they got into to the seizures Heard a Voice and came up with this phenomenal system of government how to deal with your wife and how to run the state and how to deal with one another and and how to be merciful with animals and all of this from an epileptic seizure and no other epileptic
ever has come up with something great they all get the seizures no one of them heard anything else he said yeah right so you can you know you can argue with that cross mad man okay mad have you read the Quran you telling me a mad man wrote that look at it so you can argue each one with the message of the Quran with this with the content yes sir um I've heard of uh the idea of a mental disorder specific for prophets MH so prophets only since they all have the same message it's not
because they hear it from Allah but because they all have the same mental disorder MH but at the same time this mental disorder brings out this good message if well it's the same message anyway oh I see and so this is just the culmination of yet another message this was the same person who made this argument wow so how do you refute look can we stay with this one how do you ref refute this specifically shut up uh that's just a medical disorder uh common to one person like your asthma or your cancer is not
related to the next person's cancer so why does the prophet sallallahu alaih wasallam talk about isim and and all the other prophets okay okay okay so that's actually another section when you look at let me take the brother go ahead theet question he he he was skeptic that he himself was getting mad when he first with with Z yeah getting married you said no he he questions the same oh receiving the message when he received the he I am yeah he himself thought of that but I'm sorry I'm going to pause a little bit here
and go into the message of the Quran what can you tell me about the message the teachings of the Quran that prove it couldn't have been written by a man 1400 years ago in Arabia number one says anyone can come up with a book like it then you challenge so the challenge if anyone if anyone can produce a book like the Quran has anyone being able to you've seen some attempts right and they were all utterly ridiculous great quick Point yes okay so basically you're trying to say the science in the Quran true there's a
lot of Science in the Quran very good yes the moral teachings and scientific uh evidence okay scientific evidence moral teachings give me something specific mamad oh specific I say no contradictions uhhuh okay that's good no contradictions you know look let me ask you this sorry think of it like this if if you told the Quran was revealed over a period of 23 years yet it remains consistent right isn't that a sign that it's not from a human being what if I told you right now start writing a book and finish it in 23 years is
that book going to be the same no way you're going to start off you know you know writing you know not much contemplation not much wisdom as you grow older you know and we shall do this and we you and your language improves you use big English words like uh elephant and hippopotamus excellent so so would change in 23 years your writing would change your wisdom would increase you would go back and rewrite certain chapters Quran remains consistent even though it's revealed over a period of 23 years that's a sign it couldn't have been written
by some human being what else also if I'm trying to pretend that I'm a prophet I wouldn't write in 23 years I'll try to get it done in a few months and say here is your book for the end of life most likely right I'm not guaranteed that okay yeah was like he didn't use he could write read so something so how could he what if someone says he dictated it to someone and also like how could he then know the all the events of happened with the previous prophets also future events excellent so the
brother brought up two important points too much too much history to know back then and then we'll take this point then we want to discuss future events yes he was an and how could he write such a like a classical Arabic grammar he spoke well though we know that right he was the most eloquent so he dictated it to people they'll tell you but the point on the future give me quickly some points about the future mentioned in the Quran yes in the Quran it says that the trees have sexes and female scien just 50
6 years ago that's science stay with future future something that will happen in the future H excellent is that what you're going to say yeah that the Romans have been defeated and then they after their defeat they shall become Victorious again in an odd number of years and this was something in the future and it happened how many years later n nine just as the the Quran said this is a knowledge of the future couldn't have known this right um yes the future's body sorry how how Pharaoh's body was it said it was going to
be found many generations how okay how faroh's body would have been found later on would be found mentioned in the Quran it was found later on how time would speed up in the Quran in the future later okay sir when we get to Hadith it says those things stick with the Quran but you're right though you are right yes they Au okay science science future things about things in the future AB would be in Hell AB would be in the Hellfire right that was what it's a mean but AB died after the hij to Medina
so how did know that he was going to die as a CF that knowledge of the future only Allah could have known that and ABAB to disprove that he would just say he would disprove the Quran but it never happened it's knowledge of the future in the Quran sorry the split of the Moon the splitting oh okay that's a very powerful Miracle it's also and and actually there's a point coming with that very good but we're just very busy look I'll come back to the Moon uh yes future victory of the musl and that was
proven by the okay and and but okay also and also about the Conquering of makah right mentioned in the Quran when when was it mentioned in after yeah after the Treaty of hudia could you imagine that theat would come down on the way back from the ofia the oppressive rules in that treaty again knowledge of the future so we'll stop with the future but you get the idea why he couldn't have written the Quran because you know stays consistent for 23 years never changed the you know linguistic style of the Quran the grammatical style the
challenge for anyone to write a book like it and still until today it hasn't happened knowledge of the future in the Quran science in the Quran how about when the Quran mentions rep like reproaches the prophet Sall wasam or mentions a flaw or fault of the Prophet with an imposter write about himself like that do you think like he wouldn't write like that he would write about himself as number one would he say verses like you know that Muhammad is not but you know but a human being would probably Elevate himself you know what else
are we on faults or reproach all the all the questions sorry to cut you off again but all the questions you know they ask you about the day of judgment you know you don't know the answer to it why would an impostor say that he could make up some future day 300 years from now he'll die they'll die nobody will fault him for it also um how about the fact that the names of Isa and M are mentioned in the Quran more than the name of Muhammad sorry time how about that fact you think of
that the name Muhammad how many times does it appear in the Quran four times how many times the name of and M 139 28 139 but an impostor he wants to pump himself up bring himself up to a high level and he writes more or not more but he mentions other names of prophets more than himself does that fit the mold of an impostor so the more you examine it with your non-muslim friend you he starts to see that you know what this book doesn't look like an impostor wrote it it doesn't add up why
is he talking about other people and I want to when the moon SP by the way why didn't the for example look the prophet during he would recite people come to pray with the from old you know areas old Tri new Muslims old Muslims they all come to pray with the prophet he recites what's the wisdom behind reciting go ahead what year did this happen I don't know just okay why the end of the no why did yous about thees almost to to remind people of day of judgment possibly anything else why specifically he could
have recited you know it's look let me ask you this the did they ever what what was their problem with the prophet that they made the he made the that was a big issue for them right maybe they found some other issues here and there why didn't they ever and they would have taken any opportunity to attack the prophet if they saw any flaw true or false he's their number one enemy any opportunity to attack him they would have why didn't they ever once say pedophile for example why didn't they ever say that because it
wasn't a crime in their time that's tomorrow's argument but also why didn't they oppose to why didn't they oppose to I didn't say what what is this why not they all happen in their time because they knew it happened no one objected to it Prophet would recite in because now people from all parts are there new Muslims and old Muslims they're all there and they all here the hour has drawn near and the moon has been split so so everyone knew that that happened that's why with this huge Gathering and Salah no one opposed it
no one said wait a minute what is this talking about is it reaffirms all of them recognized that's going back to your point about the moon splitting that all of them recognize this happened that's why their complaints weren't you said the moon split or you married more than one or the arguments that had that existed today if anyone was to argue against the prophet it would have been the qur who hated him more than anyone so of course the orientalists are unfair their arguments but the arguments that they have today they're just based on today's
culture you know why marry more than one why marry someone who's younger than 18 why do this why do that but the would have been the first to object they would have objected to the Surah saying the moon has been split but they didn't because they know it was a reality so anyways so when you look at the Quran the more you look at it the more you see that it could not have been written by by an impostor or by a human being and if you claim it was written by an impostor somewhere somehow
the motive of this man whatever it is must have been must be reflected in that book that he wrote by himself and so what you do you go through the entire list all right and that he just he was someone who just wanted to divide people he wanted to divide people but he's the one who gave the had that you should not even you have animals fighting against each other you should even RI one animal up against the other and he telling me he was there just to split then why theat about hold fast to
the Rope of Allah telling them that the Muslims are like uh like the building the bricks hold one another and that if one part of the body is ill the other part responds with fever so it doesn't add up something else an impostor would not practice what he would preach right that's how you find the impostor so you go the prophet he would say and he would sleep most of the night except for a little bit but the proph would stand in prayer until his feet would swell so what kind of an imposter does that
you don't have to put the act when you're at home right so the fact we have this testimony into his life in detailed aspect we know how he bathed you know how he put on his clothes how he spent time in his personal life with his family how he ate what he like to eat what color he like to wear how he combed his hair how he parted his hair we know everything about him if there was anything private that that we that we would have known it would prove to us that he was not
a genuine Prophet that he would not practice what he would preach but everything we see tells us that he was a genuine prophet and so basically you go through the entire list and you keep showing them like I said you know you I know some of you are thinking well we we're using Hadith we're using Quran and they don't believe in Quran they don't believe in Hadith but we'll discuss that further tomorrow inshallah um and when we do you go out and you try this exercise like I told you the person was an atheist and
you know she became Muslim she's still Muslim she got two children now mallah happily ever after inshallah um there's also um like one time I tried this with a cooworker and you know there was no work and we just kept talking about this and in the end he said we also by the way did something else that day we listed all the skills of the Prophet every skill that he had we can make a long list now every skill that he had you know his skill to of arbitrating between people speeches military tactics and you
know raising children dealing with their spouse um you know also you know counseling all every skill that Prophet has we listed it on a piece of paper and then of course if you're saying he's an impostor and he wrote the Quran he has all the scientific knowledge back then so oceanograph you know you know the stars and the planets and orbits embryology or biology it's so many you just list keep listed overwhelm the person just list all the skills that he has just keep listed you know his knowledge of the animal kingdom the bees all
that stuff make a huge list and in the end made that list said okay you think what do you think think one person can have all that so this guy came up with something he said look I think that Muhammad wasam was probably The Reincarnation of all the great minds in history into one man so I said this let me ask you honestly what do you think is more probable that he's a Reincarnation of all the great minds because you know when you look at you know you look at quotequote great minds you'll find this
guy excelled in this thing but it was one field you know Thomas Edis what if you have 200 inventions he did steal some of them from other folks by the way but at the same time it's all dealing with electri electricity D Vinci how many Sciences did he deal with physics right biology right he was doing the section and all that but in the end how many were there and it wasn't like he was so ahead of his time things that are impossible to know back then like the science that we have in the Quran
and so in the end he said you know so I said what is more probable that he was The Reincarnation of all the great men in history or that he's just probably one of the genuine prophets of Allah the man looked down and he said he's probably a genuine prophet of because when you do it like this you leave no Avenue you leave them no Escape either he's a genuine Prophet or he's an impostor we looked at it it didn't add up he was he was an impost we have the book that you allegedly you
say that he wrote you look at it and you don't find you know any indication that there is anyos I just don't see his argument he's saying that all the minds of the past genus whatever but didn't come before all of them well he's trying to make a he's just trying to get get out when when you're trying to get out you hold on to anything you know so I know it doesn't add up but I mean I didn't even want to go there I just said look what do you think cuz also part of
the argument of reincarnation is that it just keeps going you know so whether it started here or goes there it's just going to keep going so but you're right but the point is that what is more probable he said it's probably a genuine prophet of Allah so uh try it have fun with it and this is the plan when we come back tomorrow we're going to discuss first of all a little bit how do you how do you convince them about the Quran and that they're authentic that you can rely on them then we're going
to probably take one or two of the question the most difficult questions and discuss them then we're going to go through the different ways of refuting arguments and convincing people and then we're going to spend the rest of the day answering those questions and maybe some of you will come up here and then we'll go back and forth show it's your skill in right and in that way you'll be somewhat prepared in for uh what LS ahead of Islamic awareness week and other weeks so anyways um again I want like to really thank you I
had a lot of fun today it was great and you know excuse me for my jokes if they were too good any [Music] announcements everyone for coming
