00:00What you are talking is the teaching of the church, not of the Bible.
00:02Yes, exactly, because from the church you get...
00:04Who is the church? Church is not the custodian of the Bible.
00:06The church is who created Christians. If not for the church, there won't be any Christians.
00:09That's what I'm telling you, don't follow the church, follow Jesus Christ, peace be upon him.
00:12If there wasn't a church, you won't know Jesus Christ.
00:16Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim
00:20Very good evening, Dr. Zakir.
00:23My name is Shah. I am a psychology student.
00:26I attended your previous lecture in UITM Shah Alam.
00:31I must say I enjoyed your lecture a lot. Even today I enjoyed your lecture.
00:36My question, however, is regarding the previous lecture.
00:41You spoke about universal brotherhood in UITM Shah Alam.
00:46At one point during the Q&A session, you mentioned that you were more Christian than the Christians.
00:55Now, I am not, from what I know, a person is a Christian, provided they are either baptized into Christianity
01:05or they accept Jesus Christ as their personal saviour.
01:11Only then a person is a Christian.
01:14So, I just wanted to know how exactly you could refer to yourself as more Christian than the Christians.
01:22That's all.
01:23The sister has asked a very good question.
01:26She has asked a very good question. She heard my talk in Shah Alam and even here.
01:31She asked a question. I said that I am more Christian than the Christians.
01:35How can I be a Christian if I am not baptized, if I don't believe Jesus is God?
01:39Sister, you quoted me correct, but you didn't give my complete quotation.
01:43Before I said I am more Christian than the Christian, I said one statement.
01:46If Christian means a person who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him,
01:52then we Muslims are more Christian than the Christian themselves.
01:58There was a criteria before saying that.
02:01If Christian means a person who believes in teachings of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him,
02:07then I am more Christian than the Christian themselves.
02:09And then I said that the Bible says that Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, was circumcised on the eighth day.
02:15Most of the Christians aren't circumcised. All the Muslims are circumcised.
02:19Bible says in the book of Ephesians, chapter 5, verse number 18, don't have alcohol.
02:23In the book of Proverbs, chapter number 20, verse number 1, don't have alcohol.
02:26As a whole, the Muslims don't have alcohol, but the Christians have.
02:30Bible says in the book of Leviticus, chapter number 11, verse number 7 and 8, don't have pork.
02:34In the book of Deuteronomy, chapter number 14, verse number 8, don't have pork.
02:38In the book of Isaiah, chapter 65, verse number 2 to 5, don't have pork.
02:41The Muslims don't have pork, but the Christians have.
02:45Bible says do hijab, that you cover your head.
02:47Bible says in the book of Deuteronomy, chapter number 22, verse number 5.
02:50In 1 Timothy, chapter number 2, verse number 9.
02:53In the 1st Corinthians, chapter number 11, verse number 5 and 6, do hijab.
02:56The Muslims as a whole do hijab, but the Christians don't cover their head.
03:00So if, if Christian means a person who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him,
03:06we Muslims are more Christian than the Christian themselves.
03:10But that's my point.
03:12Christianity doesn't mean a person who follows the teachings of Christ.
03:16So what does it mean?
03:17Because Jesus of Nazareth was a Jew.
03:20He was born a Jew.
03:22He lived a Jewish life.
03:24And he died a Jew.
03:25So if you were to follow the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, it wouldn't make you a Christian.
03:32It would make you a Jew because he taught you Jewish teachings.
03:38However, accepting Jesus of Nazareth as your personal Savior, and only through him you can go to heaven.
03:46That, however, Dr. Zakir, will make you a Christian.
03:49Point out one verse of the Bible which says that accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior will make you go to heaven.
03:57Give me one equivocal statement.
04:00In the complete Bible, where Jesus Christ, peace be upon himself, says that I am God, or where he says worship me,
04:06I will accept your type of Christianity today.
04:08What you are talking is the teaching of the church, not of the Bible.
04:11Yes, exactly, because from the church you get...
04:15Wait, wait, wait.
04:15Sister, you want to understand the religion, read the scripture, don't look at the followers.
04:23Don't look at the followers.
04:25I told you, if you want to understand Islam, don't look at the Muslim.
04:29Read the scripture, the Quran, and the authentic saying of Prophet Muhammad.
04:33If I want to understand Christianity, I don't look at the church.
04:36Who is the church?
04:37Church is not the custodian of the Bible.
04:39The church is who created Christians.
04:41If not for the church, there won't be any Christians.
04:43Don't follow the church, follow Jesus, peace be upon him.
04:46If there wasn't a church, you won't know Jesus Christ.
04:50So, in order to know Christ, you must give recognition to the church.
04:54Sister, to know Christianity, you have to read the Bible, not the church.
04:58Do you know how many types of church are there?
05:00Sister, which church do you belong to?
05:02Today, there are more than 2,000 different denominations of church.
05:072,000 different Christians you will have.
05:09Do you know that?
05:10Baptists, Seventh-day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses.
05:13Which church do you belong to?
05:152,000 different types of church.
05:17Do you know that?
05:18Yes, I know.
05:19So, do you mean to think that 2,000 different types of Christians here?
05:23That's the reason, sister.
05:24If you want to understand Christianity, read the Bible.
05:28If you want to know the teachings of Jesus Christ, don't go to the church.
05:32Go to the Bible.
05:32There is not a single unequivocal statement in the complete Bible where Jesus Christ,
05:38peace be upon himself, says that I am God or where he says worship me.
05:42So, when Jesus Christ did not say, if you believe Jesus Christ to be the highest authority,
05:48which I consider him to be a messenger, messenger is far superior than the church.
05:52There is not a single unequivocal statement in the complete Bible where Jesus Christ,
05:58peace be upon himself, says that I am God or where he says worship me.
06:02Because of this attitude of yours, there are 2,000 different churches and there are 2,000
06:07different types of Christianity.
06:08Which Christianity will you follow?
06:09If you want to follow Islam, read the Quran and the authentic Hadith of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
06:16If you want to follow Hinduism, read the Vedas and the Upanishad.
06:19If you want to be a Christian, read the Bible.
06:22If you read all these scriptures, you will come closer to one true God.
06:28That God which has got no image.
06:31That God with only one God doesn't have any children, doesn't have any parents.
06:35And Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, said in the Gospel of John, chapter number 16, verse number 12 to 14,
06:42I have many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
06:46For he when the Spirit of truth shall come, he shall guide you unto all truth.
06:49He shall not speak of himself.
06:50All that here shall he say, he shall glorify me.
06:53Here Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, is talking about the last and final messenger,
06:58Prophet Muhammad to come, peace be upon him.
07:00So he is telling all of you that follow the last and final messenger,
07:04but you don't want to follow.
07:06Because if everyone follows the last and final messenger, who will follow the church?
07:11Jesus Christ never said follow the church.
07:14Which verse of the Bible says that?
07:17Which verse of the Bible?
07:18So what you have to realize, read the teachings of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him.
07:22Anyone who tries and takes you away from Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, he is not good.
07:27That is the reason I said that if Christian means a person who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, peace be upon him,
07:32I am more Christian than the Christian themselves.
07:36Jesus Christ was circumcised, I am circumcised.
07:38What has the church got to do in between that now?
07:40Jesus Christ has said you follow all the commandments in the Old Testament.
07:44Old Testament said don't have folk, yet the church says have folk.
07:47Who will you follow?
07:48Who is superior, Jesus Christ or the church?
07:50That is the reason to understand any religion, read the scripture, you will come closer to that religion.
07:55My name is Munishree Vakta, I strictly believe in God and I believe that religion is a way of worshipping the God.
08:03So does this religion really matter to acquire the enlightenment?
08:08Brother says he believes in God and he believes religion is a type of worshipping God.
08:13Does it help in enlightenment?
08:14Yes, brother.
08:16You rightly said that you believe in God.
08:18Religion is worshipping God.
08:20Religion according to the Oxford Dictionary means a belief in a supernatural controlling power.
08:26A God or gods that deserve worship.
08:29So religion means to understand God and religion is mainly a way of life.
08:34So you ask me does it matter?
08:36How do you worship God?
08:37Yes, it matters a lot.
08:39Because if you worship the wrong God, that means you are not thanking your creator.
08:44And that God is same for all human beings.
08:48Whether Christian, Hindu, Muslim, whether you live in America or Malaysia or India, our God, our creator, our sustainer is one.
08:56You have to worship him alone and no one else.
08:59If you worship a false God, then you will not be thanking the creator.
09:03Therefore, it is very important to identify who is the creator, who is our sustainer.
09:08And worship him alone and no one else.
09:11If you worship a false God, then you won't be thanking your creator and you will not be fulfilling your duty as a good human being.
09:18Good evening.
09:19My name is Lloyd Leslie.
09:21I'm from Tanzania.
09:22I'd like to thank you for this opportunity you've given me today.
09:26I have a simple question.
09:28I'd really like to know where does Islam stand in giving people second opportunities.
09:34Because I believe as all human beings, we all make mistakes, but we tend to judge each other differently.
09:40If I break a glass or if I stab someone, it's okay, but it's different when someone commits adultery or kills.
09:47So how do you actually weigh sins?
09:49I just want to know that.
09:50How do you justify these things in Islam?
09:52Brothers asked a very good question that what is the Islamic viewpoint on giving someone a second opportunity?
09:58If you read the Quran and the Hadith, Almighty God does not give you a second opportunity.
10:04He gives you hundreds of opportunities.
10:06Hundreds.
10:07Allah says that never despair the mercy of Allah.
10:14Never despair.
10:15Never think that Allah will never forgive you.
10:18That's the reason every chapter of the glorious Quran, except for Surah Tawbah, chapter number 9,
10:23begins with the beautiful formula, Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim.
10:26In the name of Allah, most gracious, most merciful.
10:30You may have done maximum sins in the world.
10:33Yet, never think that Allah will not forgive you.
10:37As long as you repent.
10:39Now, in Islam, there are certain criteria for repentance.
10:43If you have done a sin, and if you repent, Allah will inshallah forgive you.
10:48To repent, there are some criteria.
10:50First, you agree what you're doing is wrong.
10:52Number 2, stop it.
10:56Number 3, that if you can reverse it, the act, you reverse it.
11:02Number 4, never do it again.
11:05Agree it is wrong.
11:06Stop it.
11:07Reverse it if you can.
11:08Never do it again.
11:10For example, if you have robbed.
11:12Agree it is wrong.
11:15Point number 2, stop robbing.
11:17Point number 3, if you can return the thing you have robbed, return it.
11:20Point number 4, don't do it again.
11:23If you have done adultery, for example.
11:26Agree it is wrong.
11:28Stop it.
11:29Ask for forgiveness.
11:30You can't undo it.
11:31Ask for forgiveness.
11:32Don't do it again.
11:33What about capital punishment?
11:34How do you explain?
11:36Brothers, that's a good question.
11:37How do you explain the capital punishment?
11:39If someone has done adultery, what is the capital punishment?
11:43In Islam, capital punishment is there if there are 4 witnesses.
11:50In Islam, if someone does adultery, and if you have 4 witnesses, then the person who has done adultery is supposed to be put to death.
11:57For your information, let me tell you, that in the life history of Prophet ﷺ, and the sahabas, there were only couple of people who were put to death.
12:08Those who themselves wanted to be put to death.
12:11They themselves told the Prophet, I have done adultery.
12:14Prophet said, go away.
12:16Again the lady came.
12:17The Prophet said, when the child is born, come to me.
12:19The Prophet kept on evading, but she insisted.
12:22Then when she insisted, then the Prophet said, okay, stone her to death.
12:27And when she died, one of the Muslims lost her.
12:30So the Prophet said, the forgiveness that she has asked for, even if you distribute in the whole city of Medina, yes, it will be more.
12:39That means, she wanted to be punished so that she will go to Jannah.
12:43There is not a single case in the hadith of Muhammad ﷺ, where a person was put to death because of 4 witnesses.
12:53There were few cases, all of them volunteered to be killed.
12:58That means, even today, even in Saudi Arabia, I don't know of any case where a person is put to death because of adultery, because of 4 witnesses.
13:07Unless the person himself or herself comes and tells, I have done adultery, put me to death.
13:11That means, don't do adultery in public.
13:15It's a big sin.
13:16It's a major sin.
13:17It's a major sin in Islam.
13:20But if you do adultery, it is between you and Allah.
13:24You ask for forgiveness.
13:26Don't do it again.
13:27Allah will forgive you.
13:28Again you do adultery.
13:30Again ask for forgiveness.
13:32And you repent.
13:33Allah will forgive you.
13:35The capital punishment only comes in the case where you do it publicly.
13:39And if there are 4 witnesses who give witness, that means don't spoil the society.
13:46If you are doing hidingly, it's a sin.
13:48Don't do it, but you are doing it alone.
13:52So all the punishments have got certain clauses in Islam.
13:55And Allah says that even if you have done a sin as much as a mountain, ask for forgiveness.
14:03Allah will forgive you.
14:04So in Islam, Allah is the God who is most merciful, most gracious, most benevolent.
14:12Whatever sins you have, you ask for forgiveness.
14:14Allah will forgive you.
14:16You change your lifestyle.
14:17Repent correctly.
14:18And insha Allah, you'll go to paradise.
14:19Welcome back friends.
14:21I hope you enjoy the video till the last minute.
14:23My dear brother and sister, several times when you listen half of the words, when you listen
14:29half of things, when you listen half of the message, so then you consider something which
14:35is not actually happen.
14:37So most of the people, they listen little things, they little, they think they listen few things
14:43and then they make it like something else, which even doesn't exist.
14:49So in this way, most of the people, they overthinking and they used to be wrong thinking.
14:54That's why they extract fact information from it.
14:58So kindly, whenever you listen something, try to listen it and try to understand it carefully.
15:05My dear brother and sister, today is the era of modern and technology.
15:10Today is the era of mobile phone, smartphone, TikTok, YouTube.
15:14So what people have done, most of the people, they cut some words, some part of Dr. Zak Naik
15:21and some famous personalities and they put it on the TikTok, on YouTube.
15:26So most of the people, they extract something else.
15:30What the speaker want to say, they did not gain it.
15:32What the people want to say, people make opposites.
15:37People think that this person says something else and in reality, the speaker talk about
15:43something else.
15:44So that's why today, do not believe on TikTok, on Facebook Reels, on YouTube Reels and most
15:51of the short videos.
15:52Because when you listen it and when you watch it, so automatically your brain will be thinking
15:59that, what the fuck is this, what this person want to say, like that.
16:04No, that is not.
16:05For example, there are most clips of Dr. Zak Naik.
16:11It has been viral and people make it in like 5 seconds, 10 seconds videos and they send it
16:18to the people.
16:19So most of the people, they think that, yes, this is wrong.
16:22And in reality, it's what nothing's wrong.
16:24So that's why whenever you listen something through the social media and whenever you listen
16:31something from Facebook, from YouTube, from TikTok, kindly investigate it before you should
16:36forward it.
16:37So that's why today most of the people that they are indulging in such kind of situation
16:43and they are blaming the people, they are blaming famous personality.
16:47So that is not the reason and that is not the way that you should treat your besties.
16:52That is not the reason and that is not the way that you should treat your teachers.
16:58Kindly investigate it carefully.
17:00Like this question and answer session, this girl asked the question that Dr. Zak Naik, you
17:06say in your previous lecture that I am more Christian than the Christianity brother.
17:12So what does it mean?
17:13It means that you are Christian.
17:14So Dr. Zak Naik gave him a very beautiful reply that if you listen my message, if you
17:21listen my topic, if you listen my speech carefully, so I have said that if Christianity means, if
17:30Christianity means to follow the instruction of Jesus and to accept Jesus as prophet, so
17:37in this way, I am more Christian than you.
17:40Now that's the thing.
17:42When you cut two, three, four words from the topic and you add to the people, so yes, obviously
17:47people will think that this person is saying something else and reality is not like that.
17:53So Christian, we believe, we Muslim believe that yes, Christian that Jesus is the prophet,
18:00Jesus is the messenger.
18:01But we believe that Jesus does not claim divinity.
18:06Jesus did not claim trinity.
18:09And also we believe that Jesus did not crucify.
18:14Because Almighty Allah clearly mentioned in the Holy Quran that Jesus is neither crucified, neither
18:25he is killed, and neither he claimed divinity.
18:28Almighty Allah clearly mentioned in the Holy Quran that Jesus is only the messenger of Almighty
18:37Allah, only in the Messiah.
18:39So those Christian people, Christian brother who still believe that Jesus is son of God,
18:45Jesus claimed divinity, Jesus is crucified for the humanity, totally wrong ideas.
18:51The Holy Quran is the final messenger.
18:53And yes, Holy Quran proves each and everything 100% right.
18:58So how you can say like that?
18:59So Dr. Zakhar and I explained the message very well.
19:02And it's my request to all of you, wherever you listen, something short clips on every social
19:08media platform must investigate before you forward it.
19:12I hope you enjoy the video.
19:14If you like the video, subscribe the channel and share it with your friends.
