01:48i congratulate him is because he has said the first part of the islamic shahada la ilaha there
01:54is no god the only thing i have to do is prove to do is illallah but allah which i shall do
02:00inshallah so this person half my job is done to the other non-muslim first i have to prove to him
02:07the god is worshipping his false god and then prove to him about to allah subhanahu ta'ala
02:12this non-muslim was an atheist half my job is done he's already said the first part of the islamic
02:18shahada la ilaha there's no god the only thing i have to do is illallah but allah which i shall do
02:23inshallah now since you said your friend believes in science and technology and the world is advancing
02:28i will ask the atheist a question that suppose an equipment is bought in front of him who no one
02:36in the world has ever seen and if the question is asked to your friend that who will be the first
02:41person who will be able to tell you the mechanism of this equipment who no one in the world has seen
02:47who is the first person and the reply he will give he may say that the manufacturer or he may say the
02:58inventor or he may say the creator or he may say the maker whatever he says it will be somewhat similar
03:04either creator maker manufacturer inventor whatever it is it will be similar and the second person is
03:11whoever the creator inventor manufacturer has told he'll be the second person but the first person
03:16would be the creator the manufacturer the inventor keep this answer at the back of your mind and ask
03:21him the next question that how did our universe come into existence so he will tell you that you know
03:28science advance and we have come to know that our universe was once a primary nebula then there was a
03:34big bang there was a secondary separation which gave rise to galaxies the stars the sun the moon and the earth
03:42on which we live when did you come to know this so he will tell you it was in 1973 when a group of scientists
03:49they described the big bang and the creation of the universe so you tell him what you came to know
03:55hardly about 35 36 years back is already mentioned in the Quran 1,400 years ago in Surah Anbiya chapter number 21
04:04verse number 35 says do not the unbelievers see and the samawati walarda that the heavens and the earth
04:13were joined together and we close them asunder who could have mentioned this in the Quran 1,400 years ago
04:19so the HCS may say maybe it was a fluke don't argue continue ask him the next question what is the shape of the earth
04:28so he will tell you previously the human beings thought that the earth on which we live is flat
04:33it was in 1579 when Sir Francis Drake when he sailed around the earth he proved that the earth is spherical
04:41you came to know in 1579 hardly 400 years back Quran mentions 14 years ago it's mentioned in the Quran in Surah Naziyat
04:53chapter number 79 verse number 30
04:55walarda baada zalika dahaha and thereafter we have made the earth egg shape
05:00dahaha one of its meanings can expand and the earth has an expanse
05:05the other meaning is derived from the Arabic word duya which means an egg
05:08and it does not refer to a normal egg and we know today that the world is not completely round like a ball
05:14it is starting from the pole
05:16it is geospherical in shape and the Arabic word dahaha doesn't refer to a normal egg
05:22it specifically refers to the egg of an ostrich and if you analyze the shape of an egg of an ostrich
05:27that too is geospherical in shape imagine the Quran speaks about the geospherical shape of the earth
05:341400 years ago you ask your friend who could have mentioned this in the Quran he will say oh maybe
05:40your prophet Muhammad peace be upon him he was intelligent man don't argue continue you ask him
05:46that the light of the moon is it's its own light or reflected light so he will tell you that previously we human beings thought
05:52that the light of the moon is its own light recently in science 100 years back 200 years back 300 years back
05:58we came to know that the light of the moon is not its own light it's a reflected light
06:03what you came to know recently is mentioned the Quran 400 years ago in Surah Furqan chapter number 25
06:10verse number 61 the Quran says the light of the sun is its own light and the light of the moon is described as
06:17Munir or Noor meaning borrowed light or reflection of light so who could have mentioned that the light of the moon
06:23is not its own light but reflected light 14 years ago he may give a pause and say okay maybe your prophet was very very intelligent
06:31no no continue I learned in school that the Sun though it revolved in the solar system in the galaxy it did not
06:43rotate about its own axis is that what is mentioned the Quran no no that is what I learned in school we are in 1982
06:481982 27 years back I had learned that the Sun was stationary but Quran says in Surah Anbiya chapter number 21
06:57verse number 33 it is Allah who has created the night and the day was Shams of Al-Qamar the Sun and the Moon
07:04each one traveling in orbit with its own motion that is what he has boon means it describes the motion of a moving body
07:13the Quran says the Sun and the Moon besides revolving it even rotates about its own axis and today science has come to know that
07:21the Sun takes approximately 25 days to complete one rotation who could have mentioned this in the Quran
07:2749 years back which we came to recently hardly 20 years back 30 years back
07:32he'll give a pause don't wait for the answer you can continue Quran speaks about that the sky
07:40Almighty God has made a protected ceiling without it life cannot exist on the face of the earth in Surah Anbiya
07:47chapter number 21 verse number 32 Quran speaks about water cycle in several places in the Quran in Surah Azumur
07:55chapter 39 verse number 21 in Surah room chapter number 30 verse 24 in Surah Hijar chapter 15 verse 22 in Surah
08:01Meenun chapter 23 verse number 18 in Surah Noor chapter 24 verse number 40 in Surah Araf chapter number 7 verse 57
08:07several places the Quran speaks about the water cycle in great detail who could have mentioned this 14 years back
08:14he'll give a pause don't argue keep on continuing Quran speaks about biology that we have created every living thing from water
08:24Quran speaks about botany that we have created every plants in pairs two and two in sexes male or female in Surah Taha
08:32chapter number 20 verse number 53 Quran speaks about that the animals have been created from water
08:38Surah Noor chapter 24 verse number 45 Quran speaks about the human beings have been created from water Surah Furkan chapter 25 verse number 54
08:47the Quran speaks about genetics that it is a male fluid which is responsible for determining the sex of the child in Surah Najam
08:55chapter number 53 verse number 45 46 and Surah Qiyama chapter number 75 verse number 37 to 39 the Quran speaks about embryology the Quran speaks about geology the Quran speaks about oceanology
09:07you can give a talk for us together after every scientific sign mentioned in the Quran ask your friend who could have mentioned this in the Quran 14 years back
09:16the only reply can give you is the creator the manufacturer the maker the inventor this creator this manufacturer this manufacturer this inventor this inventor we muslims call as Allah we call him God
09:29so today science is not eliminating God it is eliminating models of God la ilaha illa Allah that's the reason a famous philosopher by the name of Francis Bacon said little knowledge of science makes you an atheist
09:46but in depth knowledge of science brings you closer to Almighty God so you can ask your friend to see my video cassette is the Quran God's Word and Quran modern science in which there are
09:56ways of the proofs talking about the existence of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala hope that answers the question
10:01we would request non-muslim brothers and sisters if you're curious why this book Al Quran it should be read
10:13compared compared to so many other readings you may have which may be more
10:18engrossing more interesting more thrilling for you feel free this is your opportunity to ask
10:24we have Dr. Zakir Naik on this side and this is your session
10:28I'm here to help you clarify and help you get a proper answer
10:34inshallah
10:35may we have the next question from the sister's side
10:37assalamu alaikum brother any non-muslim sister this question is on behalf of a non-muslim friend named dipti she's working in a call center
10:48excuse me
10:49if any non-muslim brother or sisters here who has some reservations on coming in front on the mic
10:55we would allow them to put a question through your friend or if you there are question slips available on the aisle with our volunteers
11:01feel free to write your questions I would request the volunteers to kindly have slips presented and shown in your hands so they can get the slips from you
11:09put your question on the slip have it sent down to me on the stage and inshallah the more interesting one from them we would put it forward to Dr. Zakir
11:17but it's more preferable you ask on the mic so that it's not that I am playing around with the slip or juggling with them and putting the more easy questions in front
11:25yes sister
11:26her question is
11:28is it compulsory for me to accept islam to read the quran can I read the quran without accepting islam
11:37this is a good question that is it compulsory for me to accept islam to read the quran or can I read the quran without accepting islam
11:46as I mentioned in my talk that the quran was revealed as a guidance to the whole of humanity
11:52it's not necessary that you have to be a muslim to read the quran but inshallah if you read the quran with an open mind
12:00an unbiased mind and an open heart inshallah inshallah after reading the quran inshallah she'll accept islam
12:07that is the reason use of islam in an interview he said that it is good that I read the quran before meeting the muslims
12:18he read the quran and accepted islam if you have met the muslim before in the quran maybe you wouldn't have accepted islam
12:25the quran is the best example it is the guidance for the whole of humanity and your friend can very well read the translation of the quran
12:35the quran in the language she understands the best and if she has any query she's most welcome to ask on the email
12:41or to a foundation at www.irf.net hope that answers the question
12:46may i clarify for those who didn't know brother yusuf islam is the same person cat stevens the very famous one of the leading pop singers
12:56british pop singers yes sister this is a question from a student aparna she's in the audience today
13:04and she would like to know why is friday given more importance
13:11this was asked the question that why is friday given more importance
13:17and a beloved prophet said it is like a weekly eid
13:21like a weekly eid like how the christians they have sunday the jews had saturday
13:27so for the muslims to be different that there is in the prophet chose friday and there are various
13:34hadith with mention the importance even of friday the sahih hadith mentioning that the noah's ark
13:41came and it got the land when there was a flood on a friday and various benefits but in the islamic context it is
13:50the weekly important day in which we have the congregational salah
13:56and the congregation salah it is more important normally we pray five times a day
14:01but once a week we offer the juma salah which is a bigger gathering
14:05it's like a weekly eid and it's compulsory that we should pray in that gathering
14:10and in that juma salah like we had today in the afternoon the imam gives a qadbah
14:16he gives a speech and gives guidance the weekly guidance to the muslims what is the requirement
14:23he may talk about the local affairs he may talk about things which are important and convey the message
14:28so friday basically the weekly eid or a weekly main day of the muslims hope that's the question
14:35yes brother good evening sir my name is rohit rayna sir basically i'm hindu and i just recently converted to islam
14:46and not only because i'm in love with muslim girl not only because of that problems and all those things
14:57because i accept islam from my bottom of heart and i tell you frankly i don't know about arabic i don't know about urdu
15:05from the very initially and i don't know about the sanskrit also because i am from the hindu background
15:12now i want to learn about islam not only because i am going to be married a muslim girl
15:18and why the controversies are there so much in the nature that people are creating not god is creating that controversy
15:26and that god is not giving the message to people that do all those if a non-muslim marry a hindu muslim girl
15:34and if a non-muslim hindu marry a muslim girl so why the controversies are there
15:40and if i accept islam then there is no problem in their family also so why there there must be a lot of controversies so please explain me
15:53brother asked the question that alhamdulillah accepted islam recently and you are in love with a muslim girl but that was not the main reason he accepted islam at the bottom of the heart
16:02he said he doesn't understand arabic he doesn't know sanskrit whether it's not compulsory that you should know arabic to go to jannah it's not compulsory
16:10but at present i am translating english arabic
16:14brother as i said it's not compulsory for a person to know arabic as a language to go to jannah
16:19i said if you know arabic you can understand the quran the best if you don't know arabic read the quran in the language you understand the best
16:27if you know english read the english translation of the quran if you know hindi read the hindi translation of the quran
16:33what you'll have to do is minimum what is required for your salah salah is one of the important pillars of islam
16:40what is required for salah that much at least you should memorize because when you worship allah subhanallah
16:46you have to say in the original word if you translate the translation may be wrong so besides this knowing is not compulsory
16:54but read the translation of the quran in the language you understand the best as far as the main question is
16:58concerned that why this controversy you have accepted islam so what the controversy as far as the muslims are concerned
17:06there's no controversy no i am not telling about the muslim controversy i'm telling about the hindu
17:12hindu controversy why why i'm saying because the quran says in surah bakra chapter number two verse number 21
17:18it says that do not marry an idol worshipper until he believes a believing man even if he's a bondsman
17:28even if he's a slave he's far better than an idol worshipper even if he allows you and the same is vice versa
17:34for the girl and for the boy the reason is that when if you have a vehicle and one tire is of the bicycle
17:42and the other of the truck how will the vehicle run but naturally all the tires should be similar
17:48and but natural any good pious girl would want that the husband also goes to jannah go to paradise
17:58so if she has found the way to paradise that's acquire peace by submitting a will to almighty god that's what
18:04she may have requested you and that is the reason you accepted islam
18:08as far as the hindus are concerned you have to show them a video cassette
18:14similarities between islam and hinduism what i tell them
18:18you know people talk about interfaith i tell them
18:22at least agree i tell the non muslims you know
18:26i don't believe in interfaith dialogue that islam is the same religion
18:30as hinduism as christianity all are same i don't agree with that
18:34i being a student of compared religion i know the differences what i tell them
18:38at least agree that one book is 100 percent the word of god
18:42the christian will say i don't mind agreeing that bible is 100 percent the word of god
18:48the hindu will say i don't mind believing whether to be the word of god
18:52the muslim will say i don't mind agreeing that quran is the word of god
18:56so i tell them that whatever is common in all these scriptures let us agree to follow 100 percent
19:02what is different what is contradicting we can discuss tomorrow
19:06at least what is common let us agree to follow 100 percent
19:10when we read these scriptures all these scriptures say that there is only one god
19:14all these scriptures say almighty god has got no images
19:18he has got no idol he has got no statue
19:20so let us all of us agree
19:22to believe and worship one god who has got no image
19:26who has got no idol
19:28all these scriptures whether the vedas
19:30whether the bible
19:32whether the quran they say
19:34that the last and final messengers prophet
19:36lord mama's peace be upon him
19:38even if you read the bible
19:40jesus christ peace be upon him said
19:42it's mentioned in the gospel of john
19:44chapter number 16
19:46verse number 12 to 14
19:48jesus christ peace be upon him said
19:50for he when the spirit of truth shall come
19:52he shall guide you unto all throat
19:54he shall not speak of himself
19:56all that here shall he speak
19:58he shall show you things to come
20:00now here jesus christ peace be upon him
20:02is telling that i have many things to say unto you
20:04but you cannot grasp my message
20:06he when the spirit of truth shall come
20:08he shall guide you unto all throat
20:10what prophet mama's peace be upon him
20:12the scriptures of all the major world religions
20:14hinduism christianity judaism islam
20:18all of them say there's one god
20:20you have to worship him alone
20:22and the last and final messengers prophet
20:24muhammad peace be upon him so if all the
20:26religious people read the scriptures
20:28inshallah this conflict would be solved
20:30and all of them would acquire peace
20:32by submitting the will to almighty god
20:34hope that answers the question
20:36yes any non-muslim brother on the mic
20:38any sister
20:40assalamualaikum
20:42this is on behalf of
20:44our non-muslim sister
20:46her question is
20:48there are certain verses
20:50in the hindu scriptures
20:52which speak of monotheism
20:54whereas there are some
20:56which speak of the opposite
20:58so her question is
21:00to quote those verses
21:02which are contradicting
21:04to monotheism
21:06to monotheism
21:08this is asked a very good question
21:10that there are verses
21:12in the hindu scriptures which speak about
21:14monotheism which i quoted
21:16but there are verses which speak exactly
21:18the opposite about many gods
21:20so why don't i quote that
21:22as i mentioned that the most
21:24highest in authority
21:26amongst all the hindu scriptures
21:28it is the ved
21:30and the ved
21:32basically speaks about monotheism
21:34there are other scriptures
21:36other scriptures
21:38which are lower down
21:40in authority
21:42which do speak about pantheism
21:44which do speak about polytheism
21:46but as a logic
21:48and what i mentioned
21:50in my formula
21:52i said what is differing
21:54we'll discuss tomorrow
21:56so even if there is a verse of polytheism
21:58there's no verse of polytheism
22:00in the quran
22:02so that goes out
22:04we are talking about that what is common
22:06and logically how can almighty god contradict
22:08how can almighty god say
22:10in one place there's one god
22:12other place there are many gods
22:14that means there's a contradiction
22:16and if there's a contradiction
22:17it cannot be the word of god
22:18so then it is a hindu to decide
22:20that how can they follow a scripture
22:22which has got contradiction
22:24quran says in surah nisaa
22:26chapter 4 verse 82
22:34do they not consider the quran with care
22:36had it been from anyone besides Allah
22:38there have been many contradictions
22:40there have been many mistakes
22:42and a word of god have contradiction
22:44so if there are contradictions
22:46you have to reject that scripture
22:48it's easy
22:50and if you follow my formula
22:52i'm taking only that which is common
22:54i can give a longer speech
22:56talking about differences in islam and hinduism
23:00but i have not come here to bring the differences
23:02i am come here to get the similarities
23:04because almighty god says in the quran
23:06how to speak with other people
23:08in sulal imran chapter 3 verse 64
23:10which says
23:12come to common terms
23:14as between us and you
23:16which is the first term
23:18that we worship none but Allah
23:20that we associate no partners with him
23:24that we erect not among ourselves
23:28lords and patrons other than Allah
23:30if then they turn back
23:36that we are muslims bowing away to Allah
23:38so this is a formula shown in the quran
23:40how to speak with different types of people
23:42that come to common terms
23:44differences we can discuss tomorrow
23:46today we come to common terms
23:48and let us agree to follow what is common
23:50so i'm picking up those verses
23:52which are matching with the quran
23:54if there's a contradiction
23:56i reject that scripture
23:58i don't consider it to be the word of god
24:00but because the hindus consider it to be the word of god
24:02i'm quoting from the scriptures
24:04hope to answer the question sir
24:06i'll read the moment
24:08and read the word of god
24:10or read the word of god
24:12so if the words of god
24:14hear the words of god
24:16Al-Fatihah
24:46Al-Fatihah
