SubhanAllah, I was going through such a bad period of waswasa just after making the intention to develop a stronger love for our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, it led me to reading all of these false theories which were starting to make me worry even though I knew in my heart that they weren't true, and now I see this video on my feed. JazakAllah for the work you do, May Allah grant you the highest levels of Jannah for eliminating falsehood through His Permission ❤️ Allah is the Best of Planners!
Stay strong my brother and remember always that no matter the aspersions anyone may cast on the prophet(s), they cannot invalidate the Quran as a testament to (and source of) the truth and validity of the message
That brother at 1:02:45 made an excellent point. When Islam is similar to other religions, they claim it’s because it was copied. But when Islam is unique to other religions, they say it’s because Islam has no continuity like it claims. That just goes to show that the conclusion is being presupposed before they even examine the evidence.
*Ibn Ḥazm (d. 1064), the Córdoban polymath Said:* "The biography of Muhammad ﷺ, for anyone who deeply considers it, necessitates believing him and testifying that he is certainly the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. If he ﷺ had no other miracle but his biography, it would have sufficed." (Alī ibn Aḥmad ibn Ḥazm, al-Faṣl fil-milal wal-ahwā’ wal-niḥal (Cairo: Maktabat al-Khānji, 1929), 2:73.) *Annie Besant (1847-1933) British theosophist and nationalist leader in India. President of the Indian National Congress in 1917.* "It is impossible for anyone who studies the life and character of the great Prophet of Arabia, who knows how he taught and how he lived, to feel anything but reverence for that mighty Prophet, one of the great messengers of the Supreme. And although in what I put to you I shall say many things which may be familiar to many, yet I myself feel whenever I re-read them, a new way of admiration, a new sense of reverence for that mighty Arabian teacher." [The Life And Teachings Of Muhammad, Madras, 1932, p. 4] *K.S Ramakrishna Rao, an Indian Professor of Philosophy* in his booklet, ("Muhammad, The Prophet of Islam") calls him the: 👇 "Perfect model for human life." Prof. Ramakrishna Rao explains his point by saying: "The personality of Muhammad (pbuh), it is most difficult to get into the whole truth of it. Only a glimpse of it can I catch. What a dramatic succession of picturesque scenes! There is Muhammad (pbuh), the Prophet. There is Muhammad (pbuh), the Warrior, Muhammad (pbuh), the Businessman; Muhammad (pbuh), the Statesman; Muhammad (pbuh), the Orator; Muhammad (pbuh), the Reformer; Muhammad (pbuh), the Protector of Slaves; Muhammad (pbuh), the Emancipator of Women; Muhammad (pbuh), the Judge; Muhammad (pbuh), the Saint. All in all these magnificent roles, in all these departments of human activities, he is like a hero." *JULES MASSERMAN,* U.S. psychoanalyst: "Leaders must fulfill three functions -*provide for the well-being of the led, *provide a social organization in which people feel relatively secure, and *provide them with one set of beliefs. People like Pasteur and Salk are leaders in the first sense. People like Gandhi and Confucius, on one hand, and Alexander, Caesar and Hitler on the other, are leaders in the second and perhaps the third sense. Jesus and Buddha belong in the third category alone. Perhaps the greatest leader of all times was Mohammed, who combined all three functions. To a lesser degree, Moses did the same." (Jules Masserman in 'Who Were Histories Great Leaders?' in TIME Magazine, July 15, 1974) *Alphonse de Lamartine Said:* "If greatness of purpose , smallness of means , and astounding results are the three criteria Of human genius , Who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammed ??? Philosopher, Orator , Apostle , Legislator , Warrior , Conquerror of Ideas , Restorer of Rational Dogmas , of a Cult without Images ; The founder of Twenty Terrestrial Empires and of One Spiritual Empire , that is Muhammad. As regards All Standards by which Human Greatness may be measured , We may well ask , is there any Man greater than He ??? [ Lamartine - Histoire De La Turquie , Paris 1854 , vol II ,PP 276-77 ] *John William Draper (1811-1882) American scientist, philosopher, and historian.* “Four years after the death of Justinian, A.D. 569, was born in Mecca, in Arabia, the man who, of all men, has exercised the greatest influence upon the human race… To be the religious head of many empires, to guide the daily life of one-third of the human race, may perhaps justify the title of a messenger of God.” [Draper, J. W. (1905). History of the Intellectual Development of Europe. New York and London: Harper and Brothers Publishers. Vol 1, pp. 329-330.] *Michael H. Hart (1932- ) Professor of astronomy, physics and the history of science.* • "My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world's most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular level." [The 100: A Ranking Of The Most Influential Persons In History, New York, 1978, p. 33] *David George Hogarth (d. 1927), a British scholar and archeologist, said,* "Serious or trivial, his daily behavior has instituted a canon which millions observe this day with conscious mimicry. No one regarded by any section of the human race as Perfect Man has ever been imitated so minutely. The conduct of the founder of Christianity has not governed the ordinary life of his followers. Moreover, no founder of a religion has been left on so solitary an eminence as the Muslim Apostle." (David G. Hogarth, Arabia (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1922), 52.) *Samuel P. Scott (d. 1929), an American scholar and jurist, wrote,* "In any event, if the object of religion be the inculcation of morals, the diminution of evil, the promotion of human happiness, the expansion of the human intellect; if the performance of good works will avail in that great day when mankind shall be summoned to its final reckoning, it is neither irreverent nor unreasonable to admit that Mohammed was indeed an Apostle of God." (Samuel P. Scott, History of the Moorish Empire in Europe (Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott Company, 1904), 1:126-27.)
Islam will never be given the credit it deserves by western intelligentsia because the West is still actively trying to undermine Islam (but Allah plans to). Did you see how Piers Morgan introduced Mohamad Hijab in his intro? He didnt even wanna acknowledge Hijab's educational pedigree, because legitimacy cannot be afforded to Muslims. We need to instill in our children that their acceptance of Islam is not neccesary for us to be valid. Our tradition contains both continuity and uniqueness and having both qualities doesn't invalidate us.

Various historical and biblical sources refer to Pan as a desert in Arabia, near Mount Sinai. - Armenian Bishop and historian Cbus mentions the Arabs assembling in Pan during the Arab Conquest. - The Talmud connects Ismael to the Arabian Peninsula and mentions an oracle concerning Arabia. 45:04 🌍 Biblical and Jewish sources connecting Ismael to the Arabian Peninsula - The Bible states that Ismael lived in the desert of Pan and got a wife from Egypt. - The Palestinian Talmud associates Ismael with the Arabian Peninsula. - The Book of Jubilees mentions Ismael and his descendants dwelling from Pan to Babylon, facing the desert. 48:21 📚 Examination of historical approaches to biblical evidence - Distinction between minimalists and maximalists in historical analysis of biblical evidence. - Minimalists consult the Bible minimally for early historical information, while maximalists use it more extensively. - Emphasis on the significance of both Jewish and biblical sources in understanding the Arabian Peninsula's historical connection to Ismael and the Arabs. 52:13 💡 Cisma Church and the Quran's Nativity tradition - Examination of the unique combination of Christian Nativity traditions in the Quran that closely align with the liturgical practices of the Cisma Church. - The Quran's reference to Jesus' birth and Mary's encounter with a miraculous palm tree and spring. - The implausibility of the Prophet Muhammad or his followers having access to or knowledge of these specific traditions found in the Cisma Church. 01:04:44 📜 Historical Critical Method in Islamic Scholarship - Historical critical method examines religious texts from a historical perspective. 01:05:10 🕰️ Evaluating Hadith in Islamic Tradition - Hadith are evaluated based on five conditions: connectedness, reputation, precision, legibility, and memory. 01:10:06 🤔 Rejecting More Hadith Than Accepting in Islam -

The discussion focuses on establishing the historical existence of figures like Moses, David, and Solomon from both biblical and extra-biblical sources. - Minimalist accounts challenge the historical narratives in the Bible, but there's evidence from non-biblical sources supporting these figures. - Comparing the Quranic narrative with minimalist accounts shows the Quranic narrative's uniqueness and historical value. 01:26:50 📜 Historical methodology and supernatural events - Historians employ methodological naturalism and focus on recording what people claimed happened, not proving supernatural events. - Historians don't verify supernatural events but document what was reported, leaving interpretation open. 01:29:11 📜 Jewish presence in Medina and historical sources - The limited historical sources from Jews in Medina during the Prophet's time are primarily oral traditions and the Talmud. - There's no known written work from Jews of that time in Medina that survives. 01:35:01 📜 Carbon dating of Quranic manuscripts and historical interpretations - Carbon dating of Quranic manuscripts sometimes shows a range, but it doesn't necessarily contradict the Prophet's time. - The dating can be complex when considering the age of the material (parchment or ink) used. - Patricia Crone changed her stance on Islamic history, partly due to manuscript evidence. 01:39:53 📜 Ongoing historical exercise and theological perspectives - This discussion is focused on historical analysis rather than theological debates. - The historical exploration doesn't necessarily align with theological beliefs, as the focus is on evidence and historical methodology. 01:40:47 📜 Key takeaways from the session - Highlights include the significance of Quranic manuscripts' early dating, the importance of extra-biblical evidence for biblical figures, and the distinction between history and theology in scholarly discussions.

@@Real_vanGogh I liked it by mistake, maybe I was replying to the alib7489 comment.

Those to whom people said, "Indeed, the people have gathered against you, so fear them." But it [merely] increased them in faith and they said, "Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs." So they returned with favor from Allah and bounty, no harm having touched them. And they pursued the pleasure of Allah. And Allah is the possessor of great bounty. (Surah Al-Imran, 173)
Glory be to Him who took His servant by night from the Sacred Mosque to the Farthest Mosque, whose surroundings We have blessed, in order to show him some of Our signs.

But give good news to the patient, who, when a misfortune befalls them, say, 'Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.' Those are the ones upon whom are blessings from their Lord and mercy. And it is those who are the [rightly] guided." (Qur'an)
14:45 "Arabs of Muhammed" also indicates that there were Arab tribes that were not Muslim. Which historically is correct as there were many Christian Arabs from the levantine regions (Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan) that allied themselves with the Romans at the time. In case some if the listeners weren't aware that the Romans had Arab cavalry and infantry

So their Lord responded to them" 'Indeed, I do not allow to be lost the work of any worker among you, whether male or female. You are but one another's allies. So those who emigrated and were expelled from their homes and were harmed in My cause and fought and were killed, I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allah.

Tayyaye is actually one of the names that were used by non-arabs to call arabs. It basically refers to the tribe Tayy طي which the famous Hatim al-Tayye is from. I might be mistaken but this is what comes to mind first when I heard it. And I read that this was one of the names arabs were known for.
Assalamu Alaikum, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to express my appreciation for your commendable efforts in spreading awareness about Islam. I have a humble request to make. Would it be possible for you to create a response video addressing Professor Moshe Sharon's perspectives on Islam and Islamic civilization? His lectures, which are accessible on RUclips, have the potential to misguide many individuals, and I believe a thoughtful response could help provide clarity and counter any misconceptions that may arise. Thank you for considering my request. Tanveer Saleh International Islamic University Malaysia

Excellent presentation on historicity of Prophet Muhammed.
Looking forward to this new series. Alhamdulillah

@@Real_vanGogh❤❤❤❤❤
@@Real_vanGogh I liked it by mistake, maybe I was replying to the alib7489 comment. But now I realize here it is mockery on prophet (peace be upon him),dirt bags cannot harm prophet (peace be upon him) as Allah elevated him in high rank, so May Allah guide them, if guidance cannot reach then may Allah destroy them and make them an example for the world, it is a scum bag move to behave like that towards the prophet of truth.
@@welcome9470 I’m very happy he left this earth on an early age and that he doesn’t exist anymore.
Deserve million of views ❤
May Allah Accept your works, and make it a means of acceptance and Guidance for the Ummah!
1:35:13 | I believe brother Mohammed Hijab might be referring to "Carbon-14," which is a radioactive isotope of carbon. It's commonly used in radiocarbon dating to determine the age of organic materials.
1:35:14 Brother, you misspoke. The type of carbon used in carbon dating is carbon-14. Other than that, great vid. Allahuma Baarik.
I use these lectures to learn English thank you❤

Those to whom people said, "Indeed, the people have gathered against you, so fear them." But it [merely] increased them in faith and they said, "Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs." So they returned with favor from Allah and bounty, no harm having touched them. And they pursued the pleasure of Allah. And Allah is the possessor of great bounty. (Surah Al-Imran, 173)
Brilliant video! Jazakumullahkhayr
Glory be to Him who took His servant by night from the Sacred Mosque to the Farthest Mosque, whose surroundings We have blessed, in order to show him some of Our signs. Surely, He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.
Qur'an
And We will certainly test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits. But give good news to the patient, who, when a misfortune befalls them, say, 'Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.' Those are the ones upon whom are blessings from their Lord and mercy. And it is those who are the [rightly] guided."
(Qur'an)
14:45 "Arabs of Muhammed" also indicates that there were Arab tribes that were not Muslim. Which historically is correct as there were many Christian Arabs from the levantine regions (Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan) that allied themselves with the Romans at the time. In case some if the listeners weren't aware that the Romans had Arab cavalry and infantry
This is a known thing. Nothing to prove
Allahumma baarik

So their Lord responded to them" 'Indeed, I do not allow to be lost the work of any worker among you, whether male or female. You are but one another's allies. So those who emigrated and were expelled from their homes and were harmed in My cause and fought and were killed, I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allah. And Allah has with Him the bes; reward'

In Indonesia, We Have Dr. Menachem Ali. He is an expert in philology and christology. He is Muallaf from Syrian Orthodox Christian. He will show you all proof that the existence of prophet Muhammad Shallallahu'laihi was sallam and Macca. I can make a claim that he is the best man in this topic in the world for now. He has refuted many accusations against the Prophet. I will give you the link to video from him and his channel.
Do show and link please!

Tayyaye is actually one of the names that were used by non-arabs to call arabs. It basically refers to the tribe Tayy طي which the famous Hatim al-Tayye is from. I might be mistaken but this is what comes to mind first when I heard it. And I read that this was one of the names arabs were known for.
Thank you for your video.
Assalamu Alaikum,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to express my appreciation for your commendable efforts in spreading awareness about Islam. I have a humble request to make. Would it be possible for you to create a response video addressing Professor Moshe Sharon's perspectives on Islam and Islamic civilization? His lectures, which are accessible on RUclips, have the potential to misguide many individuals, and I believe a thoughtful response could help provide clarity and counter any misconceptions that may arise. Thank you for considering my request.

Coin or currency doesn’t need to be designed in haram or halal as long as it is made of valuable metal invariable cost. Any coin/currency variable/fluctuating is unfair to consumers is usury riba(wrongly called interest).

Abu Bakr Siddique R.A. (died 634) was not the khalifa at the time of the Battle of Yarmuk which happened in 636. It happened in the Caliphate of Umar Farooq R.A.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking also

نريد سلسلة من السيرة المطولة بتقديم محمد حجاب أو العجيري مع وقفاتهم الفكرية الجميلة والنافعة بإذن الله
In afg you will find folks that memorized the quran while being illiterate. I memorized surathul Yasin before I learned alif ba tha
brother Hijab I think the videos should be in 4k quality to reach a broader audience
Can you attach the slides that Hijab was reading from?
It's vital to memorize or to familiarize myself with the evidences.
There were yearly trade caravans going from Mecca to Syria. There are plenty of olives and pomegranates in Syria so the Meccans definitely knew about them.
Assalamu alikum o brothers and sisters in Islam
I hope thos video gets a million views
can you please put these slides here in pdf , so that we can learn and comeback to it when encounter any such argument, if it possible the it would help a lot of serious learners and may generate a next Mohammad hijab and hamza tzorzis somewhere in the world. Thanks for the Great Work.

Correct. Everyone can have a slip of tongue. Don’t be ashamed to correct them respectfully.
