Loved being at this event brother, come back to Liverpool again!
This is so needed. I remember being stunned by the veracity of the quranic arguments in showcasing Allah’s existence and his oneness. Particularly the rhetorical questions in the Quran gave me goosebumps SubhanAllah
Please explain
@@AbdullahalAndalusi Shaykh plz use this one plz
(36:36) Holy is He³⁰ Who created all things in pairs, whether it be of what the earth produces, and of themselves, and of what they do not know.³¹
30. Glory be to Him: He is free from every defect and fault, from every error and weakness, and that another one should be His associate and partner in His work. The Quran has generally used these words when refuting polytheistic beliefs, because every belief of shirk is, in fact, an imputation of some defect, some weakness and some fault to Allah. When a person says that Allah has an associate, he in fact, thinks that either Allah is incapable of running and ruling His Kingdom alone, or He is under compulsion to make another His associate in His work. Or, some other beings are so powerful in themselves that they are interfering in God’s administration and God is putting up with their interference. Or, God forbid, Allah has the weaknesses of the worldly kings, due to which He is surrounded by an army of ministers, courtiers, flatterers and beloved princes or princesses, and thus many powers of Godhead have become divided among them. Had there been no such notions of ignorance about Allah in the minds, there could be no question of any idea of shirk in the world. That is why it has been stated again and again in the Quran That Allah is free from and exalted far above those defects and faults and weaknesses which the mushriks ascribe to Him.
31. This is still another argument for Tauhid. Here again certain realities of daily experience have been mentioned and it is suggested that man observes these day and night but does not ponder over them seriously, whereas they contain signs and pointers to the reality. The coming together of the man and woman is the cause of man’s own birth. Procreation among the animals also is due to the combination between the male and the female. Also about vegetation, man knows that the law of sex is working in it. Even among the lifeless substances when different things combine with one another, a variety of compounds come into existence. The basic composition of matter itself has become possible due to the close affinity between the positive and the negative electric charges. This law of the pairs which is the basis of the existence of the entire universe, contains in itself such complexities and finenesses of wisdom and workmanship, and there exist such harmonies and mutual relationships between the members of each pair that an objective observer can neither regard it as the result of an accident, nor can he believe that many different gods might have created these countless pairs and matched their members, one with the other, with such great wisdom. The members of each pair being a perfect match for each other and coming into being of new things with their combination itself is an explicit argument of the Creator’s being One and only One.
The quran is the claim and not evidence. Does a book about Bigfoot prove Bigfoot is real?
@@2l84me8 false equivalence fallacy
@@zakyzayn5361Wrong. Both are unproven claims that people insist are real with no justification.

keep it going!
1:15:25 ma sha Allah, it was a brilliant idea to explain expansion of universe in this way
Great presentation.....
Masha'ALLAH, Shukran
Wish there was more courses like this from all the brothers in the UK. Are there any paid courses, though?Thank you.
Assalamualaikum Brother Abdullah Andulusi , I'm your brother from Pakistan. Please,May I have all of those slides in PDF form or something etc... And the same for the Modernism, postmodernism etc topics .
Brah, u gotta pay for those pdfs
May Allah give baraka on your akl'(intellect)❤
Dear brother Abdullah, I think you dropped the most significant verse in Quran supporting your argument, it’s crystal clear and so coherent with the argument in an undeniable way. God says in Surat Al Hadid 57 verses no. 3 ‘‘ he is the first and the last and the manifest and the hidden, and he has knowledge of everything’’ in Arabic language ampersand symbol “and” are used to differentiate and distinguish between nature of things, those are the only names of God He used the ampersand method to articulate them to express him self in order to distinguish Him self from time in “ the first and the last “ meaning he is not in time he is before it and after it not contained within it , and space in “ the manifest and hidden “ to differs Him self from space meaning He does not contained or extend in space but beyond, rather than these 4 names of God in whole Quran the ampersand symbol were never used to separate the binary names of Allah in a very clear signal to the meaning which is very obvious to Arabic language speakers, I’m not sure if it is so obvious in the English translation . I hope that was useful . God bless
52:39 can you explain what does the creation of space and time mean? because as far as I know they are just logical concepts we use to describe concrete existence and succession of changes respectively, if we can say they are created then we can say the same thing about other concepts and rules of logic like non-contradiction.
Thank you for a fantastic, well done job. Allahumme barik leke. May Allah grant you Firdaws.
I heard this interesting perspective from Nouman Ali Khan where he mentioned that there are two aspects to belief or disbelief, one being reational and the other psychological, citing these two verses:
"Their apostles said: Is there doubt about Allah, the Maker of the heavens and the earth?" 14:10
Do they not then reflect on the Quran? Nay, on the hearts there are locks. 47:27
So, even if you push them against a wall rationally, the psychological journey and reflection remains. Maybe, they simple DON'T wish to believe and to that, there is no cure, no argument.
I am a follower of Sanatana Dharma, and Abdullah gave a very good presentation.
10:06
- "But they have no certainty" can also refer to people that believe truth is only a matter of غالب الظن and nothing is certain
11:48
- There is also the issue of hatred of truth and the attitude of a believing agent towards finding truth
15:30
- There is also the problem of misinterpretation
I am a follower of Sanatana Dharma and I completely agree with everything Abdullah said.
Maa Sha Allah

Unless your armor is a hijab, wearing armour is criticised by allah as an act of the hypocrites in surah Al-Hashr 59:14
لَا يُقَٰتِلُونَكُمْ جَمِيعًا إِلَّا فِى قُرًى مُّحَصَّنَةٍ أَوْ مِن وَرَآءِ جُدُرٍۭۚ بَأْسُهُم بَيْنَهُمْ شَدِيدٌۚ تَحْسَبُهُمْ جَمِيعًا وَقُلُوبُهُمْ شَتَّىٰۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌ لَّا يَعْقِلُونَ
They will not fight you all except within fortified cities or from behind walls. Their violence among themselves is severe. You think they are together, but their hearts are diverse. That is because they are a people who do not reason.
Can we get the presentation?
Please make the courses available as free
JazakAllahu khairan

Al-salam Alekom brother.
Well built argument for the existance of "somthing" that "has the ability to make decisions" and is "independent".
But the next question is, how do we prove that this "something" cares to come in contact with it's creation? That the Quran is from this "ultimate something" without a shred of doubt. But not one that just proves that it's from a being better than us humans and jinns, because that doesn't necessitate it's God himself and just means it's an entity with more power than us. And if proven that it comes from the "ultimate 'something'" aka Allah, is there definite proof of truthfulness as an inherit characteristic, or is there a layer of trust that has to be present?
Is there a lecture that tackles these questions?
Great explanation 👏
share the pdf of slides..

I’m joking stfu
This seems to push an unislamic divine simplicity theory. Are you saying that the will is not separate from the power or knowledge? If so the atheist can argue that the supposed mechanism is not separate from the substance...
Who says God is made of a substance?
@@AbdullahalAndalusi Nobody.
I simply point out that whatever ontology you use is susceptible to a symmetry attack by the atheist. Arguing that, in the case of an universal wavefunction for exemple, matter is simple. So indivisible, even in principle, regardless of it's supposed spacial size. One saying it is conceivable, will be like a child saying it is conceivable that pi = e, it would simply show ignorance of what made it not.
Read Joe Schmid last book.
Another angle is to simply say that your first unit at 1.07 is what really the base. The same way your god started here, one could argue Nature started here, materializing it as emergent space-time.
Even if we discard all that, Sean Carroll emergent spacetime will be a naturalist alternative that check all the boxes you made.
@Ryba125 then I don't understand your counter argument

If someone is denying A- Priori assumptions isn't he using the A- Priori assumptions to deny them and shooting himself in the foot?

"the Quran's Undeniable arguments for God" - this kind of wording adds the audacious notion that there is no God but the Quran can show you how to make or develop a God. Almost dajjal level language of trying to find out how to make addajjal. Meanwhile the quran flips the audacity on atheists for potentially forgetting that they agreed with the rest of us that Allah is our boss.
Even if a soul/ruh becomes damaged and ends up deformed like an animal or a shia.
16:18 I don't know how you can use plague and compare it to battle. Especially regarding the following hadith:
حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حَبِيبُ بْنُ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ، يُحَدِّثُ سَعْدًا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ بِالطَّاعُونِ بِأَرْضٍ فَلاَ تَدْخُلُوهَا، وَإِذَا وَقَعَ بِأَرْضٍ وَأَنْتُمْ بِهَا فَلاَ تَخْرُجُوا مِنْهَا ". فَقُلْتُ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ يُحَدِّثُ سَعْدًا وَلاَ يُنْكِرُهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
Narrated Saud: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If you hear of an outbreak of plague in a land, do not enter it; but if the plague breaks out in a place while you are in it, do not leave that place."
Sahih al-Bukhari 5728
Seems like i have to wait until the end for the quran.
( Do Christians And Jews and "OTHER" non-Muslims go to Heaven? )
Quran 2:62
'' Those who believe (in the Quran) and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures) and the Christians and the Sabians->ANYAllah< Is The Protector Of Monasteries, Churches, Synagogues And The Mosques )
Quran 22:40
[They are] those who have been evicted from their homes without right - only because they say, " Our Lord is God " And were it not that God checks the people, some by means of others, there would have been demolished monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques in which the name of God is much mentioned. And God will surely support those who support Him. Indeed, God is Powerful and Exalted in Might.
Note: Why did Allah protected Churches and Synagogues if they worship false Allah ?
( Why Are There So Many Different Religions In The World ? )
Quran 5 48
''...... If God wanted He could have made all of you a single nation.( ie single religion ) But He willed otherwise in order to test you in what He has given you (ie Scriptures) therefore try to excel one another in good deeds. Ultimately you all shall return to God then He will show you the truth of those matters in which you '' >DISPUTE verb < not noun like other religions
Islam mean "submission" to God
( The above verse saying is that God will not accept a religion from the >MUSLIM< and the Non-Muslims but total "submission" to God )
Question: How Can Muslim And the Non-Muslim "submit" to the God?
Answer: Be kind to other human beings and Do not lie, Do not steal, Do not cheat, Do not hurt others, Do not be prideful and Do the charity work.
Note: If you obeyed all the ABOVE Allah-God's moral laws "YOU" submitted to God.( ie Islam mean "submission" to God )
The only people who will enter Paradise those who '' Submitted to God '' ( ie by Good Deeds )
God does NOT accept your religion of birth but only ''Your Total'' Submission to Him.
( God Allows Interfaith Marriages And Eat Food From the Christian And Jew And Vice Versa )
Quran 5:5
''This day [all] good foods have been made lawful, and the food of those who were given the Scripture (ie Christian and Jew) is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. And lawful in marriage are chaste women from among the believers (ie Muslim ) and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture (ie Christian and Jew) before you, when you have given them their due compensation, desiring chastity not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking [secret] lovers. And whoever denies the faith - his work has become worthless and he in the Hereafter will be among the losers.''
Note: > Only < Islam allows interfaith marriages (>14 hundredsSame God< but They are >ALL Corrupt< more or less, some more than others from their original foundational teaching. The older religion are MORE corrupted than newer religion.
Question to Muslim and Christian:
Does God / Allah only answer your pray ?
And God / Allah does not answer non Muslim / non Christian pray?
Did Allah '' Canceled '' all other religions Judaism and Christianity?
Quran 5:48
'' And We have revealed to you [O Muhammad] the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture ( ie New and old Testament ) and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. >>>TO EACH OF YOU WE PRESCRIBED A LAW AND A METHODone nation>differ qualified < for to enter Paradise )
On the day of judgement God will ''NOT'' judge humanity bases on Sunni Muslim sect VS Shia Muslim sect ''NOR'' by Muslim VS non-Muslim >but< Doer of Goods VS Doer of Evils.
'' YOUR " birth in the Muslim's family is NOT a > qualification < for to enter the Paradise.
'' YOUR " religion / sect / foot long beard is NOT a > qualification < for to enter the Paradise.
The > qualification < to enter Paradise is > Faith in God and Good Work
21:12 - atheism isn't a belief for the word belief comes from the same root as the word love, while the ancient greek originating word atheist is no different to the latin originating word 'idiot'. The idiot being created by sexual immorality which lead him to enact the curse of quran 33:59-73. Which is what the French Jacobin atheists did after they accused the French queen of doing so. Their rumour mongering came from their diseased heart which lead them to hypocrisy, so forbidden from the city they were.
Simple question can u prove heaven exists.so far i have never gotten any answers to that question .saying that heaven or hell exists is like believing that unicorns exists .aethists r ppl who believe in logic n evidence n not just believe it blindly n try to convince ppl with weak logics n arguements .
heaven in this context just means the sky, nobody is talking about heaven and hell. misunderstanding.
we cannot prove that the afterlife exists because it's not something we can logically deduce from empirical data. However we can prove that God exists and that the Quran is the word of God. If God in the Quran says that there is heaven and hell, then it is true, what we have is scriptural evidence.
Paradise and Hell are merely celestial bodies [planets so to speak].
Can you or any atheists prove the existence of the big bang or black holes? Atheists belong to the biggest religion where they blindly follow the likes of Krause who has brainwashed his followers into believing something can come from nothing!!!
You are the one with the weak crying!
You exist, you come here what does not interest in you
Therefore, you already live in the Earth that will be hell!
And simply the opposite to earth, where Aadam was initially created by Allaah, Earth Jannat, paradise!
