Thank you for all your enthusiasm - We've duly noted all your feedback on getting religious leaders and professionals for future similar topics! - The RUclips team
What I love is how everyone was very open and respectful, there was no judgement about Islam, just pure curiousity and wanting to understand. The way Fikah and Suryan handled themselves was also very inspiring. Really enjoyed this episode, kinda speaks about how a multi racial singapore can survive and get along with one another.
Yes. Most of the answers given by Fikah and Suran is wrong, and even the explanation doesn't make sense and incomplete. What haram is haram, intentions doesn't make it right. Do invite Islamic experts so that non-Muslims won't be misinformed and misled.
Its ideal to have an Islamic Scholar (Imam) to accompany the Muslims TSL so there's more in depth explanation. 100% Fikah and Suryan did a good job explaining.
How I love Singapore is a place where such topics can be so openly yet candidly discussed. Not many places in the world can such a video even be published freely.
love that non-muslims are very curious on how islam is and how open-minded they are. I would love if they brought in a scholar but they answered well and explain well
Working as a financial consultant and I have muslim clients as well. I think the response to "muslims are not (technically) allowed to buy insurance" is quite misleading. Yes, the responses were qualified by saying "please read fine print", but I think that as key opinion leaders, you must take ownership of what you are sharing. The youths may be watching this content and being misled into thinking that purchasing insurance is haram. If the muslim colleagues from TSL are not qualified in giving proper advice on this topic I don't suggest giving such a black-or-white "true" or "false" answer. Furthermore MUIS does recommend muslims in Singapore to purchase the proper types of insurances that are aligned with shariah-complaince. Such sensitive topics should be dealt with properly or by professional religious leaders.
this is a very good concept but i suggest if you were to make another video like this make sure to invite people who are legitimate to answer the questions. no hate to the hosts but it's for the sake of getting the most correct answers. i see some ppl commented that they've seen the host did a total opposite act online and that also another reason why you should consider inviting a religious leader for this kind of video. it's a sensitive topic after all.
It would be better if you have a scholar or knowledgeable person from Islamic studies to answer all those questions. Even if this is just a chill out session, but it would benefit the audience if we have from a reliable source. Nonetheless, I hope to see more of this smart talks ie interfaith discussion/debate. Cheers mate. 😊
Rubbish content. You bring ppl who publicly trangress islamic basic principles, and allow these jokers to talk about islam. Thats how false news spread about islam. Get your act together stop talking about things u r not expert about. Bring someone who knows abt islam to talk abt islam.
For “0%” beer, if we talk about intention, what about mocktails? Aren’t they adapted from alcoholic cocktails so that they remove the alcohol element but mimic the taste of the drink? So is it really the intention, or the trace amounts of alcohol, what if there’s complete proof that there’s no alcohol?
i liked this episode! i have a question about hijab. why some wear and some don't? is it a choice? btw if you want to make this a series, you could invite the 'teachers' in each religion, e.g. Buddhist Venerable, Taoist priest to answer, so that the answers are more accurate and complete
They're asking the wrong ppl. If its wrong, its wrong. Period. True most comment says that TSL should invite more appropriate person to ask. Also, many ppl wonder is wearing hijab a must? It is. You can't choose. I don't know why we need to answer on why we choose not to wear. Not every question, need an answer. And some question is a basic common sense(?) Brenda was asking what if they use vegetable to mimic the taste of meat we cannot eat it. For example, so are we not allowed to eat mushroom? Mushroom also mimic the texture and taste of a meat. There are alot plant base food that mimic meat taste/texture too.
Coming to the Beer question of non-alcoholic. We would need to look into the country's regulations on advertisement. Like for example some "Non-alcoholic beer" would have a 0.000001% of alcohol in it and based on the countries regulation that is not considered alcohol and are allowed to adervise as 0.00% Alcohol.
Next time really bring in someone more qualified to talk about things like this ESPECIALLY the insurance portion. When it comes to investments, muslims must ensure that their investments are parked in a shariah compliant fund. Insurance wise, muslims are allowed to cover themselves but not PROFIT from tragedy. Means if you earn $100k per year, you can only income replace upon death so that your family need not carry on your liabilities, an example of what not to get is getting coverage of $1 Million if you dont earn $1million. Hence there is no benefitting from tragedy.
I like this. I agree that maybe next time an immam can answer the questions. There is a docu that talks about Diwali and it was very informative. I have v limited knowledge about other religions. I want to learn to understand the teaching behind the practuces and to avoid accidentally disrepecting those who practice the religion.
Im sorry but a some of fikah's answers are wrong, please get someone educated on the matter (a student of knowledge, etc.) to converse on these type of topics to not create confusion amongst the young Muslims
3:12 Then left-handers how? If right is good and left is bad, then Muslims born left-handed are bad right from the womb? They write with their left hand, so everything they write is bad? I wouldn't call any of these questions difficult even though they may have been informative in helping others to know more about Islam. If one really wants to ask or answer a difficult question about Islam, one might consider asking/answering why it is ok for Islam, even in this age, to "preach" for the death of an apostate, or to campaign for full Syariah Laws to be integrated into a non-Muslim nation's legislation for example.
Left-handers are allowed to write left-handed. It's only eating that its encouraged to use right hand, as it was the way of the Prophet. A quick google search revealed it. Also from quick Google search, there is no mention of killing an apostate in the Quran, as it contradicts the Quran's words to not compel anyone to believe. Also, Syariah law was always used alongside other normative system, even in Islamic states of the 8th and 9th century. There was no compulsion to have full Syariah Law even in Islamic states, so what has changed now?
That's your issue with the whole religion, keep it to yourself. Obviously it's not a sin to eat with your left hand, it's just encouraged to. Clearly if the norm is to pray and raise your hand but you don't have a hand, you can still pray (if its not obvious enough).
I guess most of it boils down to Intention. Oh btw, "You are the closest one here to marrying a Malay girl" Hmmm there are Indian and Chinese Muslims too :)
when will muslims put all these theology on the back burner and instead focus on bringing back the glory days of the ~300 years of Islamic Golden Ages where knowledge is codified and advanced? Think Algebra and Algorithm
When will non-muslims stop telling us how to act? Why does it bother the likes of you anyway. I don't go around telling my buddhist friends to stop polluting the air in 2023.
@@celineaurelia Actually you do since 99% of the Muslim countries will tell you exactly what to wear (particularly if you are a woman), how to act in public, what to eat and so on.
@@Daniel_RG I don't go around telling people their religion is noisy, their religion is harming the global climate. Anyone who enters a holy place will cover up. Just because a few countries are more extreme, you want to generalize? Which Muslim country tells you what to eat?
Are you saying she should share knowledge on islam based on her own experiences rather than the actual facts (like she has done in the video)? Very unnecessary comment, opening opportunities to hate. Her ability and intention to share about islam is commendable.
@@ey8296We both know you’re not confused, it’s clear what your intention was. TSL doesn’t have a wide selection of Muslim talents so she just did her job answering the questions. Whether or not she upholds them would be her own private life. We don’t know her personally, let’s not act like we do.
@@ey8296 People nowadays can be so ignorant. You outright started with a comment that would trigger a chain of negative comments and then now it’s ‘sensitive’ and ‘hostile’ when you get called out for it. Immature, but we move! 🙃
the 15:05 analogy by Brenda for Muslims with vegetarians is mindblowing off, poor, and tasteless, as someone who's an ex-Christian. atheists are really soooo so so so far off from understanding what religion means fundamentally sia LOL
Thank you for all your enthusiasm - We've duly noted all your feedback on getting religious leaders and professionals for future similar topics! - The RUclips team
This was really awesome! Would love for yall to continue this format with other religions 😀

Islam is the scrouge of modern day society
I wish they had questioned a qualified teacher or Imam because the answers would probably have been more complete.
my thoughts exactly
Agreed.
Thank you for your feedback! If we have another episode, we’re sure to bring in a teacher or professional next!
Bring in Youth Muslim Organisation representatives maybe they can answer in ur vibe.. if Senior it will be like akward to u all..

Singapore still can. Muslim Marry a non Muslim and register under the government, but Malaysia cannot.
Malaysia made it a law.
