Her to non muslims: You don't know the real Islam.
Muslims to her: You don't know the real Islam.
She doesn't know her religion she claims things about it but she didn't even study it lmaoooo

Trade Hut im Muslim and I don’t think that I think she’s as valid as a Muslim as everyone else
This needs a billion likes becuase it's so true
As a Muslim, the receipts you should bring should be from the Quran and sunnah. Otherwise, you are not speaking for Islam, but from your desires.
are you even muslim?
Yes, I am.
All Muslims don’t have Arabic names.

ted talk really proves that you can have a show without knowing what you talk about

there you go
It is in fact haram to question if another Muslim is truly Muslim
No actually I've read Quran and the first word is "read" that Islam itself wants you to question
yeah no@@somebody24237
If u try to make haram things halal,u are no longer a muslim
Stop lying
Go seek help 😂
This is proof that just cuz someone has a Ted talk doesn’t mean they have any idea what they’re talking about 😂😂😂
As Muslims we are called to love people and be at peace with everyone, but love doesn't mean tolerate. We are to put Allah's words above people. Love people but don't tolerate them. Allah loves us but He doesn't tolerate our sin.

"Haram is haram, even if everyone is doing it. Halal is halal, even if no one is doing it."
-A wise commentor
As a Christian I agree with you strongly
That quote was stolen from a Christian named Saint Augustine.
"Right is right even if no one is doing it; wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it".
@@rocha9765 No one said it is from the Quran nor the Sunnah. Even if it is not stolen, it is simply facts,
Hijabs are a must in islam, but just bc you're wearing one doesn't mean you know what you're talking about.
This is what happens when you let just anyone into the ummah. Particularly ones w an agenda or who want to change the religion so that their biases are fulfilled.
Have some goddamn respect. This is a religion ppl have had as part of their families and communities for centuries.
I'm really starting to think these types of ppl are western implementations to try and destroy Islam from within. Given that proselytizing is allowed anyone can "join" and when you have mass amounts of "Muslims" joining they can control the narrative of that religion and fudge it up for whatever agenda they're trying to push.
Why WOULDN'T western governments attempt to do this???
It such a basic and easy scheme, for a "muslim" problem they've always had an issue w.

Quran: "Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people." (7:81)
Bro she’s a walking shytaan😭
Muslims: "Islam a Religion of peace"
Quran: "But once the Sacred Months have passed, kill the polytheists (Christians) ˹who violated their treaties˺ wherever you find them,1 capture them, besiege them, and lie in wait for them on every way".
@@user-dz4rl8xb8z it says "violated their treaties". Do you know the context of the verse or are you just ignorantly cherry picking ayahs from the Quran to prove your Islamophobic claims? Fighting in defence was made permissible literally 2 yrs after the great migration. And then when treaties were broken, both sides would go on war. Here if you have eyes you can read "kill the polytheists who VIOLATED their treaties". It was the polytheists that broke the treaties when Muslims had initiated them. Now who wanted peace in this case? The Muslims that established treaties or the polytheists that broke them to wage war against Muslims? You tell me...
@@user-dz4rl8xb8z and the word used in the Aya is "Mushrikun" meaning pagans and idol worshippers. NOT Christians! Lol don't even know Arabic to begin with.

How is it possible to do a Ted Talk without any knowledge of the subject matter?
Perhaps they have an agenda to push among Muslims.
Money and propaganda
This isn t a moslim woman actually she just try to make a wrong picture of islam
This is one of the beautiful things about this beautiful religion, your opinion doesnt matter, you have Qur'an and sunnah, your desires are yours to fight, not to embrace
The speaker already explained the Quranic context behind the Biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah, aka the story of Lut, clearly at 5:30. This is a Quranic fact, not an opinion. In addition, all books of Hadith, aka Sunnah, were written down centuries after the death of prophet Muhammed. Those books are full of lies, criminal teachings, and fairy tales. Therefore, they're unreliable source of religion or history.
@@amunra3250
First of all, are you a muslim? Because you cant really argue about something you have no idea about
Second, stories of those people are not important now, yes they were punished for many bad theyve done, but also have many others people, they are not linked to the story, there is specific story about prophet Lut/Loot or how may you know his name where we can clearly see that that is prohibited, also there is clear recitation in Qur'an which mentions prohibiting this, also there are two law specification methods approved in islam which are another topic but also are prohibiting it
Sunnah and hadith, approved hadith, there are specific methods with which we assume hadith true or not who does not left space to error, there are only about 5-7 people from whom are hadith accepted, in these 1000 years, so no sunnah is preserved, you could also say Qur'an is not preserved because i mean it is a text, then what are you even doing here?
You being a muslim or not actually doesnt matter, if you knew Qur'an, sunnah, fikh, sheriah, hystory and etc, if you were intrested in learning abiut islam you would knew it, task of every muslim is to correct false information and that is what i have done, ofcourse you can be muslim and lgb, there are many muslims who are liars, well many muslims doing very bad things, that is because every person can label themselves in any way they want, but you being a muslim depends on only One, i said a lot of things here i shouldnt, i could ofcourse talk you through everything to details but i know you are would not accept because yu started off as ignorent and rude, in any case thats it
@@zuraktobambuzi3055 There're absolutely ZERO laws in the Quran against homosexuality, period. In addition, there are so many scholars of Islam around the world who are not Muslims. Therefore, your idea that you have to be a Muslim to understand Islam or interpret the Quran, is rather silly.

it's so ironic how people in the comment sections are forcing their beliefs upon others while being mad that the woman in the video is doing the same
Islam's position about lgbt is very clear. It is forbidden and sinful acts. If she want to support LGBT sure, but to say Islam allowing such things is beyond wrong. She spoke based on her own narrative and no Islamic scholar ever will agree with her.
her saying "prophet Lat" instead of "Lood" is enough for me to understand her level of knowledge
She clearly said Lot perhaps you didn’t hear
It’s not Lood But loot in Arabic
She pronounced it correctly in English
Although the rest about Quran she has it wrong
She is making something that is haram as halal
@@behuman3801 yes she pronounced clearly in English, but didn't bother to pronounce his real name which is in Arabic. meaning she tends way more to the west rather than the original Arabic language the Quran uses and the language that the prophet used

@@thotpad Islam is more than a religion. Or at least it's the only religion that stayed the same through out time to that's why it's also a moral system on it's own. And when you come out and say you don't subscribe to it. People will look at you like a deviant.. This happens all around the world
@@pubgsaed1846 Let them look. It's the religous abides who go about blowing themselves up with innocents. I've never heard someone leaving religion do that. Whose a danger to whom then?

To any queer/LGBTQ Muslims reading the comments of this video: please stay strong! Know that you are loved and only Allah can judge! Do not let your heart be injured by the hateful words of disbelievers and the followers of men. Do not hate yourself because of what foolish, misguided, hypocrites say on the internet. You must only answer to Allah! Who gave you the gift of the quran. Follow the quran, and you will please Allah. There is no condemnation of queerness in the quran. Zero!

Wearing short sleeves shows that she is only doing it for her nafs. She has no control over it. Islam teaches us to cover ourselves in whatever way we could. She is a liar. Don't listen to her.

Short story, she is not a muslim
Bro is the best example of saying bismillah before eating pork
Eating pork is also not "allowed" in Islam. Pork or mostly pigs were not bad. Pork was bad because it got people ill because it quickly spoiled in the heat. So they added it to the Quran and made it haram. Because they ate fresh pork which was not cooked.
@@UA-380-that’s the point
@@Kanadesolosyou So its not haram in 2023

I m not here to judge I just want to ask I been Muslim my whole life I m not sure if the hijab and short sleeve go together is this a new thing? And she just changed what the Quran says
judge bro, judge.
@@alix6xgorg839 I guess I m allowed to on this video 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is not hijab nor even close. And you are right from what we learn from the quran and ahadith she should be covering a lot more.
ما يقوله يبدو رائعًا بالنسبة لي، والطريقة التي يشرح بها قصة لوط صحيحة. كمسلمة، لا ينبغي لي أن أحكم على عقيدة إخوتي ولا ينبغي لي أن أنتقد خطايا أي شخص محرمة، ولكن بما أنها تتحدث عن الإسلام، فإنني أطلب منها حتى أن تغطي ذراعيها بالحجاب.

Facts
She says she’s Muslim, then continues to go on about doing everything she is forbidden to do?
She’s just changing the context of Qur’an to “fit in”. She’s making a whole new religion.
Why? Why can't muslims be queer it's their life.

Even I as a Christian recognise her talk as blatant heresy
I genuinely came for the receipts but unfortunately found none.
please report this video and choose the "misinformation"
She is a literal walking and talking contradiction
She is a Liberal Secular by religion who wants to appropriate Islamic clothing. She is not Muslim.
@@hassaans6778 nailed it. It’s all an act and how she can get woke points.
@Dark__ Wolf and? We aren't Insulting her if we saying the truth
@Raynil Dralas , I am Sunni. Salafi Khawarij have nothing to do with Islam. You invent your own ways like her.
@Raynil Dralas are you ok mate?... How on earth is Shia is descendants of Khawarij. I think you need to do research man
The audience must understand she's talking on behalf of herself, not Islam.
Nope! She is defently talking about herself and Islam too, if history slides are anything to go by 🙃
@@minabish1783 She isn't muslim
@@kebabseverim3364 you know that is not true, a Muslim is who recite the 2 "shahada" or believe in only one God that is Allah and that Mohammed is the prophet of Allah, that's it! 😊 Isn't Islam amazing?! this is requirement to be Muslim,
Oh
of course as for what you do afterword, what mistakes you do, you will get punishment accordingly but by Allah, of course you can always do the "istigfar", but they are still Muslims, and iam saying this because calling someone as not Muslim without proof is a great sin, and unless you are ready to take responsibility for it in front of Allah, say it! But iam not, and I have no right to deside that just because she is queer, since she said she converted, and participate in Muslim rights in US, It's unlikely she is lying, I mean, what will she get? Again I have no intention on taking the punishment by Allah on saying someone is not Muslim, it's not up to me, you or anyone to deside who is good or bad just based on a few things, and iam glad about it! I love ISLAM, it's forgiving and beautiful and board too,
@@minabish1783 these guys are called hypocrites you do know that, being a Muslim is not shahada, if that was the case why did Abu bakr RA campaign against 'Muslims who had recited the shahada`. There's more to being a Muslim than shahada. Its following the teachings of prophet pbuh and Allah.
@@Name-fe4fk eh? But iam pretty sure that a Muslim is who recites the shahada while believing in it! That is what I was teached all my life! As for sins that is between them and Allah only! well... as long as the don't hurt/harm others, And besides can you really take responsibility in front of Allah? Calling someone else not Muslim even when you don't know them, just bc they have different openion and intreptions? Isn't that happening all over the world? Many have different teaching and understanding of Islam even though it shouldn't be(sigh😔)
There's a lot of people here attacking her character & not her argument. This is known as: ad hominem
I can attack her arguments easily
@@kjy05try it then
“she isn’t really muslim”
“this makes me lose faith in humanity”
“she’s just trying to be different”
so? is different so bad?
what needs to be different is people actually thinking before they’re saying.
blair, sending you love❤️❤️
Are you even muslim? You don't know anything abt islam make research abt islam then protect her if you want
Lmao, she's the one who needs to think before she opened her mouth. Islam has very clear rulings against LGBT. Islam opposed it to the core. If she wanna support them sure, idc. But to say Islam allows LGBT acts in it's community is wrong. Don't drag our religion into this.

Did you gather any followers for your new religion? I am just curious how they feel about the teachings of YOUR holy book?
OMG , the comment section here is really refreshing, thank u all brothers and sisters for standing up for Islam , i feel so proud whenever i see muslims who are trully aware of their religion , hope we can transfer this to the upcoming generations to protect our islam from distortion

Being muslim and queer means you are a sinful muslim that Allah still loves, and will forgive with repentance. Being queer and flaunting it and not viewing it as a sin means you are no longer a muslim. That is Islam's very clear stance on the matter.

@Paniyah Fox where did the sister force anything down your throat kid? In our religion in one of the first ayahs of Quran it says "to you is your religion and to us is ours, and there is no compulsion in religion". So this person that is giving the ted talk could simply just say that I am not a muslim and thats cool cause obviously she has no clue what islam is. Also islam isnt just somethibg you can identify as just like in western countries a man can identify as a women and get away with it.
our religion also orders us to respect and follow the laws of the country that is kindly hosting us. So we don't need someone like you to tell us what to do, our Islam honored us and told us to do the honorable thing long before you were born.
But when a person tries to twist and turn Islam to their desires we have every right to call it out and disown it. Islam was perfected 1400 years ago and not her not a king or a president can come and change it cause they think "they know better" than the creator of the 7 heavens and the earth.
Decomcracy in your county 😂😂 that must be a joke or your just sadly blind. You guys can call it what you want but there isn't a country on earth that is democratic its all games and a facade that they play with their people, and some sheeps buy it. Wake up kiddo.

There’s nothing to reconcile. If you’re queer and Muslim you can leave it. You be a whole lot better off.

Man's habit, as Allah Ta` ala says in the Qur'an, is: كَلَّا إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَيَطْغَىٰ ﴿6﴾ أَن رَّآهُ اسْتَغْنَىٰ ﴿7﴾ that is, when he acquires freedom from need, he starts transgressing the limits - 96:6-7. On these people too, Allah Ta` ala had opened the doors of His blessings. Goaded by this common behaviour pattern, all soaked in wealth and possessions, they reached the farthest ends of luxury and lust when they stood deprived of the most essential human sense of honour, dignity and modesty, and lost in that process, the very ability to distinguish between the good and the bad. In consequence, they got themselves involved in acts of unnatural indecencies. These are abominal acts, apart from being Haram and sinful, acts which cause hatred and distaste in the heart and mind of everyone born with sound and decent taste, so much so, that even animals would not go near it.
Poohammed wants us to kill LGBTQ+ people and apostates with stones. His book and his pooples history is ABSOLUTELY FULL OF SUCH ACTIONS, so don't lie and make excuses. The news and recent history of Muslim countries shows horrid abuse of anything that isn't a male. This woman is a liar. Their holy text, history and news are all horrifying, primitive, provincial, superstition driven hatred and utter stupidity. The Pooran says over and over to take over the world and kill the apostate. These are easily, readily confirmed FACTS.
