It’s our inferiority complex that makes us want to own them in an argument so badly, forgetting that we were honoured with the truth of life and their opinions on islam just don’t matter. if we seek honour in anything else than islam, we will be humiliated.
Exactly! I don’t care about atheists. I don’t need to prove them wrong. If someone wants to have a civil conversation I’m all for it. But if they just want to prove their point then I don’t care.

Important to say though there are some really great daees there like brother Abbas and brother imraan. They have really respectful dialogue and have such a good way in conveying the message. May Allah swt bless them.
As someone who has often felt a pull to Islam, I know what or who you might be referring too. I think their heart is in the right place, but I find it’s very argumentative, dramatic and it does tarnish the beauty of the religion.
If Islam pulls you, ask Allah to make it easy for you, guide you and turn to him, talk to him out of sincerity and humbleness. and inshallah you'll see the results. He is all powerful all knowing and the only one who can help.
Sister check out "The Muslim Lantern" , Brother Mohammad Ali is very soft spoken, he has very informative discussions with non-muslims who are curious about Islam or those who have misconceptions about Islam.
I highlt reccomend the Muslim Lantern on youtube, he speaks to people on video calls to those interested in learning more on islam, its on youtube. Hes very calm, collected and straight to the point.
I don’t think they understand that when they are public manners is the best dawah. It’s embarrassing to the rest of us for some people to act in this manner. (Also the US)
Jazak Allah khair brother Sajid for the advice. I personally stopped watching videos from speakers corner for about a year now. Unless a brother I know sends me something and sometimes I may watch it. You are right about the harms and how it allows kufr and disbelief on a Muslim’s platform. But I think by now if people don’t see the harm, then it’s like beating a dead horse. Wa Allah hu 3lum. I am from America, Northern California.
I use to frequent speakers corner in the mid to late nineties when almost nothing was ever recorded. The few salafi duat who were there at that time were not into debating but rather just conveying Islam and clearing up the doubts. I stopped going in 2000 because I thought It was turning into a circus but looking back it was way better than it is now.
Im from Nigeria. I try to present myself to everyone as someone with good character, honesty, dont lie and dont cheat. Hopefully this will give them a good impression of islam.
I'm Turkish and l'm born Muslim. I was always a timid person so at first speakers corner seemed so brave to me. But nowadays it doesn't feel like it. I feel like you explained what l was feeling from the very beginning sir. Thank you❤
@crazycat9003 you can watch towards eternity as well. They're really chill and well informed. And jinn part was always the first step for born muslims like us 😂
This is very true, especially the behaviour of some at speakers corner. It’s very intimidating. I get call from as far as Asia thinking Muslims are attacking people everywhere in UK.
I personally love our brothers on Speakers Corner. However, I really wish if they could behave more like men and less like boys. May Allah grant us all Hidaya.
1. Study and gain knowledge 2. Implement that knowledge in your life 3. Teach and share that knowledge with others while you have patience. Imam Shafi'i's commentary on Surah Al-Asr summarizes this beautifully. It's mentioned in a great book about the fundamentals of Islam called "Explanation of Important Lessons for Every Muslim" by Ibn Baz. I highly recommend it. May Allah have mercy on both sheikhs and may Allah reward Saajid for this beneficial video and series. Aameen!
Ameen ya Rabal'alameen, and asallamu alaykum my brother (or sister, akhi or ukhti fil deen) in islam. I just wanted to let you know that you're missing out on multiple hasanat for not only yourself but for others as well. You can gain all of these hasanat by simply adding full honorifics after mentioning the name of an important person in Islam or even Allah subhanahuwata'ala. Here's some more information about this: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_honorifics Also, it's better that you refrain from using the abbreviation for these honorifics as described in this fatwa: www.aliftaa.jo/Question2En.aspx?QuestionId=3607 Take no more than 5 minutes to read this page and increase your good deeds greatly Insha'Allah subhanahuwata'ala (most people don't add subhanahuwata'ala after using a common phrase like Insha'Allah but I just do it for extra good deeds). May Allah azza wa jal grant you Janat-Al-Firdous-Al-'Ala in the next life without any hisaab and give you ease in all of your affairs in this life. Ameen ya Rabal'alameen
did you study multiple religions? How do you know that it is real wisdom you are gaining and not just given wisdom? I'm seriously starting to consider leaving Islam

Alhamdu Lilah great video Saajid, I've always felt uncomfortable with a lot of what is happening in that space, videos with childish and sensationalist titles like "Muslim slams Christian" and 'pop-islam' movement where personalities and showcasing debating skills takes precedence
Jazakallah akhi for the video. I have seen many videos from speakers corner and fully understand what u mean. It would sometimes make me forget the importance of akhlaq and I'd be influenced to be arguementative ( not to blame any of the brothers at speakers corner as i am fully responsible for what i listen to and how i behave ). I fully admire that u speak up against things that arent in line with islam. Alhamdullilah i have come across this change. May Allah guide us to the straight path and keep us firm on the straight path. May Allah make us good to our parents. May Alllah grant us Jannah. Ameen ya rub
Great video on clarifying brother Sajid may Allah preserve you. sometimes non-Muslims have better manners than these "daaes" and everyone sees that and thinks that's how Muslims act
Thank you for this video brother. You only need to look at the behaviour antics of those at Speakers Corner behave in actual debates in settings. They lose the sense of dialogue but keen on having sound bite moments.
I have never learned from speakers corner on where is Allah , and the seriousness of it (check the hadith in this reply comment) , nor ive learned how to pray properly, or the foundation of our deen subhanallah May Allah guide us
Mu’awiyah as-Sahmi reported: «I had some sheep which I kept between Uhud and Juwaniyyah with a slave girl to look after them. One day, I went out to check on my sheep and discovered that a wolf had devoured one of them. Since I am just a human, (I became angry) and struck the girl. Later on, I came to the Prophet -Sallallahu alahi wa Sallam- and reported to him the incident. He terrified me with the gravity of my action. I said, “Messenger of Allah! Shall I free her (as an expiation of my sin.) He said ”Call her over.“ When I did, he asked her: ”Where is Allah?“ She said, “fi as-samaa.” Then he asked her, ”Who am I ?“ She said, “The Messenger of Allah -Sallallahu alahi wa Sallam-“. Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah -Sallallahu alahi wa Sallam- ordered me, ”Free her for she is a believer“ » [Sahih Muslim]. Reference: Sahih Muslim 537 a In-book reference: Book 5, Hadith 39 USC-MSA web (English) reference: Book 4, Hadith 1094 The scholars explained “as-samaa” to be the Throne (`Arsh)
You make good points here brother, however there are still many people that have reverted to Islam because of that content, the question still remains though is the dawah scene pushing more people away than it is bringing to Islam
The results aren't what is most important, whether many are positively or negatively affected. Allah decides who becomes Muslims at the end of the day. It's only upon us to have knowledge, patience and sincerely do it for Allah.
While we might not have the luxury of obtaining a peer-reviewed study from the Pew Research Centre on whether such content empirically brings more people to Islam or pushes more people away from it, we know that in our Deen, the end does not justify the means. So, let's assume its pros outweigh its cons; that would still not make it right if it's fundamentally wrong in our religion. The "hows" matter a great deal in Islam. That's precisely why Bid'ah is strongly frowned upon. So, I suppose the question should be: "Is debating in such spaces fundamentally wrong or conditionally wrong?" May Allah guide us all.
I live in US california I myself love to watch speaker corner because I m born muslim but not very practicing muslim so the question start in my mind I can speaker corner all type of religion people come there talk what they believe then I better understand about my religion Alhumdulillah I m not saying you are wrong but I really like it speaker corner
Salam from Malaysia…For those who are seeking knowledge about our beautiful deen pls listen more to our brother Saajid because he will always give the right explanation..❤
USA - Nevada originally from the Caucasus mountains! I do watch good and respectful debaters like Yusef and Imran there are a few others too... simply because I would like to know how to talk about Islam and debate how its the truth with non-Muslims that I might meet in my life who would be interested in knowing more about Islam, I would love to be the reason for someone accepting Islam in sha' Allah
Salam, Isn't there a middle ground? We can't keep taking islamophobes in the chin and ignore them? Also the Muslims that leave because of certain bad Muslims, isn't that on them? Do we do Islam for Allah or because of intermediaries? I totally get the Daeeh's that are looking for drama but that is not the same to those that keep it classy and respectful while also calling out the countless falsehhoods being pushed about Muslims. How are the kids going to respect their deen when they only see the islamophobes take over the internet like it was pre 2016 before the online dawah scene increased. Again, I believe there's a middle ground here. And I'm 100% against the drama between Muslims. I wish the daeeh's kept their beefs private and focused on the kaffirun talking ill about our deen.
I don’t watch speakers corner debates! But based on what I have seen on surface, No One has ever taken their shahada at these debates. Although the same atheists are taking their shahada at OMF stands with a simple message “Your Lord is One and Only, So worship him alone”
For me, the most sad part of that dawah culture is their 'titles and thumbnails". Surely they do not represent the beauty of islam, rather they are click baits for more views and revenue.
Alhamdulillah. The first time i clicked on speaker's corner, i just saw a shouting match. I went off n didn't visit it again for a very long time until a question about a topic in Islam came up n it directed me there. Speaker's corner on the whole is very toxic. The few good patient da'ees are pushed into the background because of the brasher, controversial, popular individuals. For these individuals the dawah session is a power trip and who can out do the other. Sometimes their behaviour, speech and actions are so shameful that you are embarrassed to call them Muslims. They are sometimes guilty of provoking bad behaviour and speech from the ones they engage with. The enemies of Islam there easily entice them to engage in fruitless debates. They are so easily used to make Islam and Muslims look bad and the material is then used to mock or discredit Islam or the Muslims. Definitely people who might have gone there online will be put off and not want to look at Islam. Understandably the Muslims who have doubts or don't do their homework will turn away from Islam when looking at these videos. They don't bother to engage with knowledgeable scholars, nor double check that the info the anti-Islamists are spouting is authentic or not. But prominent Muslims online airing the dirty laundry of other Muslims and taking personal battles online is not only giving ammo to the nonMuslims but also turns Muslims away from Islam. Unfortunately the Sunnah practices and teachings of Islam are pushed aside for name, fame, money, pride and outdoing each other. You want true Islamic knowledge, go and seek it from humble, accredited, knowledgeable Islamic scholars.
You're 100% absolutely right in this my brother Sajid, unfortunately there are a lot of immature daes doing Dawah, without proper knowledge and manners. Syria but live in Sweden
I have been to speakers corner last year to see it for myself. I can honestly say. Its the worst place on earth. Sensory overload the moment you arrive. Large amount of people there have mental issues. Im not being funny. You can't concetrate on what people are saying or talking about cause of the amount of noise arount you. Its a fascinating site for sure but subhaan Allah its not healthy for brain.
i agree with you. Some of the brothers are there without ilm or akhlaq and only for fame. Beneficial video for most of us. May Allah(swt) guide us to the truth and increase us in iman. Ameen.
I grew up in a non-Muslim environment (within a Muslim majority country), I barely had any Islam in my life, not that I didn't believe in Allah but I ddin't care for Islam. I had no role models in my life. I only started learning more about Islam and getting more interested and having some of the contentions that people had against Islam cleared through some (emphasis on some) of the speakers in speakerscorner. I don't watch any more content from speakerscorner anymore, as eventually the topics become repetitive and I think I learned what can be learned from there. However, without the content from there, my stance on Islam wouldn't have strengthened as it is today and I wouldn't have been "vaccinated" against foreign ideologies, because let's be honest, you can't really put your fingers inside your ears and then liberalism suddenly disappears, it's become prevalent even in Muslim majority countries (where I live). Although I don't appreciate some of the behaviors of the Muslims there, especially the theatrics that come from SOME speakers (I called them out on that on their videos, telling them that a Muslim must have a certain هيبة instead of moaning and spitting, etc), I can't discredit the role speakersconrner played in pushing me to learn and have a stronger faith than I did previously.
I nearly left islam as a new revert due to racism from a sheikh hating on white reverts from speakers corner and his ginger friend who takes mick out of people for reading Hadiths and bukhari and takes mick out of people's mental health issues when this suffering sister rang into a show was horrendous akhlaq I have since distanced myself from said people as they just want destroy people in debates and smash them as they like to say it all just feels very not Islamic Thank you brother saajid for letting me know that these sort of debates are not normal and not just me feeling like this about them
I dont know about what happen to you but muslims arent perfect He may have knowledge but not good manners My friend in the end we will all be judged by god dont let ur fate and belive connected to muslims but to islam and the prophet I know you meant hamza ,but who hat white reverts ? In islam color or nationality is irrevelent
This is very true , but it's hard also to maintain adab and ahlak if one throws himself to the wolves , one needs to lion up .. speakers corner is such a place
You are correct, brother. Today's problem is that we turn religion into an entertainment process. We listen not to ‘ulama, but to bloggers. For us, the words of the righteous predecessors have ceased to carry value… الله المستعان
Da'wah is not an advert stand with a talking stick. Da'wah is an invitation to unite in the momentum of revolutionary action through eloquence of behavior prescribed by the Lord. contribute your merit to society and be the most useful human in life. elevate the status of your people in knowledge , trade , innovation and etc.
As a muslim I kinda hate these discussions😅it just makes no sense to me. Like first of all WHOOO are they to discuss certain topics. And then they 80% come with the statement „In my opinion“ ain’t nobody cares about their opinion on a certain islamic topic that has been discussed by the ulema before. Also I see many times people who have no knowledge like to discuss on BIG topics. I have been forcefully pulled into discussion many times because of family etc.. But Elhamdulillah I just do NOT discuss with them. Whatever they say I don‘t even hear it. I don’t get angry or take any offensive comment about me seriously. I just try to find a way to step out of the discussion. Then they feel stupid.
اللّهُـمَّ بارِكْ my beloved brother and Ustadh Saajid Lipham - I’m very pleased to see that you have adopted the sunnah of when you conclude / depart from a gathering! اللّهُـمَّ بارِكْ سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ O Allah, You are free from every imperfection; praise be to You. I testify that there is no true god except You; I ask Your Pardon and turn to You in repentance. May Allah grant us the ability to say this Dua whenever we conclude from a gathering or depart a gathering! Ameen!
In all honesty, i believe the problem doesn't lie with speakers corner but rather that fact that some our representatives come to forget the first and most important aspect of dawah which is spreading the massage for the sake of Allah(AWJ) and get their egos conflating with the massage over time with out them noticing,however your point of view is a valid one and should be considered dear brother... Alssalamu Allaikum from Iran
@@Ismail-1983 echt? Dat wist ik niet. Waar koop je ze? Ik woon in Groningen dus beperkte mogelijkheden voor halal eten, maar wordt steeds makkelijker..
I appreciate your thoughts, Brother Saajid. However, I respectfully disagree with you on the topic of this particular video. Even if Muslims were to stop their presence at Speakers Corner, it's uncertain whether the haters will stop going there or spreading misinformation about Islam. The Muslims at Speakers Corner speak and explain Islam in a very nice way to a wide audience, leading many to embrace the faith. The Muslim presence there is crucial, as without it, there's a possibility that falsehoods about Islam would go unchallenged. It's important for Muslims to engage in debates to counter these misrepresentations. This engagement serves as a means to rectify misconceptions held by many, as encountering opposing viewpoints often prompts a reconsideration of one's beliefs. Ultimately, if individuals choose not to accept Islam due to feeling pressured, that decision rests with them. Some non-Muslims like that environment so they can say all their thoughts and ask all their questions. Your efforts to provide clarity are commendable. I hope that I receive a response from you regarding this. Thank you.
I agree with the naseehah, but let us all appreciate some of our brothers effort doing dawah which some non muslims start opening their mind and some of them revert alhamdulillah. We can’t just ignore and act as if those good outcome is nothing to the sight of Allah. I agree some of the muslims behaviour are inappropriate, but make dua for them, and we hope that they heard you and change for the better. But don’t just condemn without pointing the good things they did. We are brothers in islam. I believe there are still more brothers that behaved and have good manners at SC like brother Muhammad Ali, Hamza, Mansur, Abbas and so on. Even in US i like sheikh Uthman Farooq. His method is the same, only that the condition/crowd is not like at SC. Even if you disagree, i could see that even making video like this in youtube, you also open the comment section where muslims arguing about you and other muslim brothers you disagree with..which (according to you)is also harmful to the muslim ummah.. don’t you think?
Speakers corner made me go from intrigued to the opposite when it comes to Islam. Thank you for being honest and actually making this video. BOTH Muslim’s and Christian’s have embarrassed themselves at speakers corner. The amount of clickbait now is shambolic. So many people just want views and drama rather than actually giving positive messages or fruitful discussions…
Assalam u Alaikum from Tokyo. There are many brothers, channels doing a great job at Speaker's corner ex. EFDawah, Dawahwise etc. And then there are who come with the sole aim to 'dessimate' opponents. I stopped watching those. Please speak about the Dawah stalls as well. Jazakallahum Khairan.
With all due respect there are spectrum of people that needs to be exposed to the truth. How to be exposed is another issue. But the positive is much greater that’s the negative. The results is self evident. For example shamsi has been a great influence for many to revert to Islam. I agree that some styles has to be turned. But overall it has been great. The audience is huge. Some feel defensive in the beginning but later they contemplate. My position is if some don’t like it, just don’t watch.
I m from Indonesia, 100% agree that we have to guard ourself from fitnah syubhat that can destroy our believe from the core. Stay away from corner debate is better for our heart. We need to seek knoledge of Islam from the schoolar that have qualification to speak about Islam. Jazakallahu Khairan Brother
I disagree, they also brought 100s if not 1000s to islam. Alhamduallah. And me personally I learned a lot about islam from the brothers in speakers corners from the debates and dialogs I have watched. Sometimes it even made me jealous in a good way that I don't know as much as they do and it made me want to learn even more. Maybe you see it differently not everyone sees negative. With your logic Othman bin farooq is in that same lane. Sometimes he runs into those hostile dialogs. Now that being said. are you gonna say the same about him? if we don't stand up strong what are we supposed to do "turn the other cheek"
As salamu alaykum alhamdulilah for Islam. Originally from turkey but living in UK since 1997. Jazzak Allahu khayran for the videos please do make ders on dawah book you mentioned will benefit alot of brother and sister that give dawah insha'Allah.

I don’t think they understand that when they are public manners is the best dawah. It’s embarrassing to the rest of us for some people to act in this manner. (Also the US)
Jazak Allah khair brother Sajid for the advice. I personally stopped watching videos from speakers corner for about a year now. Unless a brother I know sends me something and sometimes I may watch it. You are right about the harms and how it allows kufr and disbelief on a Muslim’s platform. But I think by now if people don’t see the harm, then it’s like beating a dead horse. Wa Allah hu 3lum. I am from America, Northern California.
TBH I myself am drawn to such heated debates but jazakallah for this naseeha. I'm from Bangladesh.
I use to frequent speakers corner in the mid to late nineties when almost nothing was ever recorded. The few salafi duat who were there at that time were not into debating but rather just conveying Islam and clearing up the doubts. I stopped going in 2000 because I thought It was turning into a circus but looking back it was way better than it is now.
Im from Nigeria. I try to present myself to everyone as someone with good character, honesty, dont lie and dont cheat. Hopefully this will give them a good impression of islam.
I'm Turkish and l'm born Muslim. I was always a timid person so at first speakers corner seemed so brave to me. But nowadays it doesn't feel like it. I feel like you explained what l was feeling from the very beginning sir. Thank you❤
@crazycat9003 you can watch towards eternity as well. They're really chill and well informed. And jinn part was always the first step for born muslims like us 😂
This is very true, especially the behaviour of some at speakers corner. It’s very intimidating. I get call from as far as Asia thinking Muslims are attacking people everywhere in UK.
I personally love our brothers on Speakers Corner. However, I really wish if they could behave more like men and less like boys. May Allah grant us all Hidaya.
Ameen
So the brothers in speakers corner are acting like boys? Seriously?
@@BeamingTerrorno more like thugs
@@BeamingTerrorI’ve seen boys behaving better..
@@BeamingTerror Yes. Boys argue but men dialogue.
I’m from Somalia and we appreciate your beneficial reminders Sheikh/Br Saajid.
Assalamualaikum brother. I'm from the Philippines. May Allah make it easy for us to learn the truth and become a real believing Muslims.
1. Study and gain knowledge
2. Implement that knowledge in your life
3. Teach and share that knowledge with others while you have patience.
Imam Shafi'i's commentary on Surah Al-Asr summarizes this beautifully. It's mentioned in a great book about the fundamentals of Islam called "Explanation of Important Lessons for Every Muslim" by Ibn Baz. I highly recommend it. May Allah have mercy on both sheikhs and may Allah reward Saajid for this beneficial video and series. Aameen!
Ameen ya Rabal'alameen, and asallamu alaykum my brother (or sister, akhi or ukhti fil deen) in islam. I just wanted to let you know that you're missing out on multiple hasanat for not only yourself but for others as well. You can gain all of these hasanat by simply adding full honorifics after mentioning the name of an important person in Islam or even Allah subhanahuwata'ala. Here's some more information about this: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_honorifics
Also, it's better that you refrain from using the abbreviation for these honorifics as described in this fatwa: www.aliftaa.jo/Question2En.aspx?QuestionId=3607
Take no more than 5 minutes to read this page and increase your good deeds greatly Insha'Allah subhanahuwata'ala (most people don't add subhanahuwata'ala after using a common phrase like Insha'Allah but I just do it for extra good deeds). May Allah azza wa jal grant you Janat-Al-Firdous-Al-'Ala in the next life without any hisaab and give you ease in all of your affairs in this life. Ameen ya Rabal'alameen
Aammiin
did you study multiple religions? How do you know that it is real wisdom you are gaining and not just given wisdom? I'm seriously starting to consider leaving Islam

Alhamdu Lilah great video Saajid, I've always felt uncomfortable with a lot of what is happening in that space, videos with childish and sensationalist titles like "Muslim slams Christian" and 'pop-islam' movement where personalities and showcasing debating skills takes precedence
these debates have become more like rap battles, where each group waits for one opponent to corner the other. Jazakallahu lheir brother Saajed.
Jazakallah akhi for the video. I have seen many videos from speakers corner and fully understand what u mean. It would sometimes make me forget the importance of akhlaq and I'd be influenced to be arguementative ( not to blame any of the brothers at speakers corner as i am fully responsible for what i listen to and how i behave ). I fully admire that u speak up against things that arent in line with islam. Alhamdullilah i have come across this change. May Allah guide us to the straight path and keep us firm on the straight path. May Allah make us good to our parents. May Alllah grant us Jannah. Ameen ya rub
Great video on clarifying brother Sajid may Allah preserve you. sometimes non-Muslims have better manners than these "daaes" and everyone sees that and thinks that's how Muslims act

Thank you for this video brother. You only need to look at the behaviour antics of those at Speakers Corner behave in actual debates in settings. They lose the sense of dialogue but keen on having sound bite moments.
I have never learned from speakers corner on where is Allah , and the seriousness of it (check the hadith in this reply comment) , nor ive learned how to pray properly, or the foundation of our deen subhanallah
May Allah guide us
Mu’awiyah as-Sahmi reported: «I had some sheep which I kept between Uhud and Juwaniyyah with a slave girl to look after them. One day, I went out to check on my sheep and discovered that a wolf had devoured one of them. Since I am just a human, (I became angry) and struck the girl. Later on, I came to the Prophet -Sallallahu alahi wa Sallam- and reported to him the incident. He terrified me with the gravity of my action. I said, “Messenger of Allah! Shall I free her (as an expiation of my sin.) He said ”Call her over.“
When I did, he asked her: ”Where is Allah?“ She said, “fi as-samaa.”
Then he asked her, ”Who am I ?“ She said, “The Messenger of Allah -Sallallahu alahi wa Sallam-“.
Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah -Sallallahu alahi wa Sallam- ordered me, ”Free her for she is a believer“ » [Sahih Muslim].
Reference: Sahih Muslim 537 a
In-book reference: Book 5, Hadith 39
USC-MSA web (English) reference: Book 4, Hadith 1094
The scholars explained “as-samaa” to be the Throne (`Arsh)
You make good points here brother, however there are still many people that have reverted to Islam because of that content, the question still remains though is the dawah scene pushing more people away than it is bringing to Islam
The results aren't what is most important, whether many are positively or negatively affected. Allah decides who becomes Muslims at the end of the day. It's only upon us to have knowledge, patience and sincerely do it for Allah.
While we might not have the luxury of obtaining a peer-reviewed study from the Pew Research Centre on whether such content empirically brings more people to Islam or pushes more people away from it, we know that in our Deen, the end does not justify the means. So, let's assume its pros outweigh its cons; that would still not make it right if it's fundamentally wrong in our religion. The "hows" matter a great deal in Islam. That's precisely why Bid'ah is strongly frowned upon. So, I suppose the question should be: "Is debating in such spaces fundamentally wrong or conditionally wrong?" May Allah guide us all.
I live in US california I myself love to watch speaker corner because I m born muslim but not very practicing muslim so the question start in my mind I can speaker corner all type of religion people come there talk what they believe then I better understand about my religion Alhumdulillah I m not saying you are wrong but I really like it speaker corner

I do watch good and respectful debaters like Yusef and Imran there are a few others too... simply because I would like to know how to talk about Islam and debate how its the truth with non-Muslims that I might meet in my life who would be interested in knowing more about Islam, I would love to be the reason for someone accepting Islam in sha' Allah
Salam,
Isn't there a middle ground? We can't keep taking islamophobes in the chin and ignore them?
Also the Muslims that leave because of certain bad Muslims, isn't that on them? Do we do Islam for Allah or because of intermediaries?
I totally get the Daeeh's that are looking for drama but that is not the same to those that keep it classy and respectful while also calling out the countless falsehhoods being pushed about Muslims.
How are the kids going to respect their deen when they only see the islamophobes take over the internet like it was pre 2016 before the online dawah scene increased.
Again, I believe there's a middle ground here. And I'm 100% against the drama between Muslims. I wish the daeeh's kept their beefs private and focused on the kaffirun talking ill about our deen.
So true ya sheikh watching these debates leaves you more confused than before you started watching it and creates further doubts in the mind

I don’t watch speakers corner debates! But based on what I have seen on surface, No One has ever taken their shahada at these debates.
Although the same atheists are taking their shahada at OMF stands with a simple message “Your Lord is One and Only, So worship him alone”

For me, the most sad part of that dawah culture is their 'titles and thumbnails". Surely they do not represent the beauty of islam, rather they are click baits for more views and revenue.
Has Ali dawah responded regarding his format with mutabarijat sitting with non mahram? this is crazy and yet only a few pointed it out
Alhamdulillah. The first time i clicked on speaker's corner, i just saw a shouting match. I went off n didn't visit it again for a very long time until a question about a topic in Islam came up n it directed me there.
Speaker's corner on the whole is very toxic. The few good patient da'ees are pushed into the background because of the brasher, controversial, popular individuals. For these individuals the dawah session is a power trip and who can out do the other. Sometimes their behaviour, speech and actions are so shameful that you are embarrassed to call them Muslims. They are sometimes guilty of provoking bad behaviour and speech from the ones they engage with.
The enemies of Islam there easily entice them to engage in fruitless debates. They are so easily used to make Islam and Muslims look bad and the material is then used to mock or discredit Islam or the Muslims.
Definitely people who might have gone there online will be put off and not want to look at Islam.
Understandably the Muslims who have doubts or don't do their homework will turn away from Islam when looking at these videos. They don't bother to engage with knowledgeable scholars, nor double check that the info the anti-Islamists are spouting is authentic or not.
But prominent Muslims online airing the dirty laundry of other Muslims and taking personal battles online is not only giving ammo to the nonMuslims but also turns Muslims away from Islam.
Unfortunately the Sunnah practices and teachings of Islam are pushed aside for name, fame, money, pride and outdoing each other.
You want true Islamic knowledge, go and seek it from humble, accredited, knowledgeable Islamic scholars.
You're 100% absolutely right in this my brother Sajid, unfortunately there are a lot of immature daes doing Dawah, without proper knowledge and manners.

I have been to speakers corner last year to see it for myself. I can honestly say. Its the worst place on earth. Sensory overload the moment you arrive. Large amount of people there have mental issues. Im not being funny. You can't concetrate on what people are saying or talking about cause of the amount of noise arount you. Its a fascinating site for sure but subhaan Allah its not healthy for brain.
From Sudan... May Allah bless you.
I'm from Ghana. Thanks for the insight
i agree with you. Some of the brothers are there without ilm or akhlaq and only for fame.
Beneficial video for most of us. May Allah(swt) guide us to the truth and increase us in iman. Ameen.
I grew up in a non-Muslim environment (within a Muslim majority country), I barely had any Islam in my life, not that I didn't believe in Allah but I ddin't care for Islam. I had no role models in my life. I only started learning more about Islam and getting more interested and having some of the contentions that people had against Islam cleared through some (emphasis on some) of the speakers in speakerscorner.
I don't watch any more content from speakerscorner anymore, as eventually the topics become repetitive and I think I learned what can be learned from there. However, without the content from there, my stance on Islam wouldn't have strengthened as it is today and I wouldn't have been "vaccinated" against foreign ideologies, because let's be honest, you can't really put your fingers inside your ears and then liberalism suddenly disappears, it's become prevalent even in Muslim majority countries (where I live).
Although I don't appreciate some of the behaviors of the Muslims there, especially the theatrics that come from SOME speakers (I called them out on that on their videos, telling them that a Muslim must have a certain هيبة instead of moaning and spitting, etc), I can't discredit the role speakersconrner played in pushing me to learn and have a stronger faith than I did previously.
Well said
I nearly left islam as a new revert due to racism from a sheikh hating on white reverts from speakers corner and his ginger friend who takes mick out of people for reading Hadiths and bukhari and takes mick out of people's mental health issues when this suffering sister rang into a show was horrendous akhlaq I have since distanced myself from said people as they just want destroy people in debates and smash them as they like to say it all just feels very not Islamic
Thank you brother saajid for letting me know that these sort of debates are not normal and not just me feeling like this about them
I dont know about what happen to you but muslims arent perfect
He may have knowledge but not good manners
My friend in the end we will all be judged by god dont let ur fate and belive connected to muslims but to islam and the prophet
I know you meant hamza ,but who hat white reverts ?
In islam color or nationality is irrevelent

I agree with your points but Brother Hijab, efdawa etc... Debates really helped guide me to islam
You are correct, brother. Today's problem is that we turn religion into an entertainment process. We listen not to ‘ulama, but to bloggers. For us, the words of the righteous predecessors have ceased to carry value…

Da'wah is not an advert stand with a talking stick. Da'wah is an invitation to unite in the momentum of revolutionary action through eloquence of behavior prescribed by the Lord.

As a muslim I kinda hate these discussions😅it just makes no sense to me. Like first of all WHOOO are they to discuss certain topics. And then they 80% come with the statement „In my opinion“ ain’t nobody cares about their opinion on a certain islamic topic that has been discussed by the ulema before. Also I see many times people who have no knowledge like to discuss on BIG topics. I have been forcefully pulled into discussion many times because of family etc.. But Elhamdulillah I just do NOT discuss with them. Whatever they say I don‘t even hear it. I don’t get angry or take any offensive comment about me seriously. I just try to find a way to step out of the discussion. Then they feel stupid.
اللّهُـمَّ بارِكْ
my beloved brother and Ustadh Saajid Lipham - I’m very pleased to see that you have adopted the sunnah of when you conclude / depart from a gathering!
اللّهُـمَّ بارِكْ
سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ
O Allah, You are free from every imperfection; praise be to You. I testify that there is no true god except You; I ask Your Pardon and turn to You in repentance.
May Allah grant us the ability to say this Dua whenever we conclude from a gathering or depart a gathering! Ameen!
JazakAllahu khayraan. From Bangladesh.
In all honesty, i believe the problem doesn't lie with speakers corner but rather that fact that some our representatives come to forget the first and most important aspect of dawah which is spreading the massage for the sake of Allah(AWJ) and get their egos conflating with the massage over time with out them noticing,however your point of view is a valid one and should be considered dear brother...

I appreciate your thoughts, Brother Saajid. However, I respectfully disagree with you on the topic of this particular video. Even if Muslims were to stop their presence at Speakers Corner, it's uncertain whether the haters will stop going there or spreading misinformation about Islam. The Muslims at Speakers Corner speak and explain Islam in a very nice way to a wide audience, leading many to embrace the faith. The Muslim presence there is crucial, as without it, there's a possibility that falsehoods about Islam would go unchallenged. It's important for Muslims to engage in debates to counter these misrepresentations. This engagement serves as a means to rectify misconceptions held by many, as encountering opposing viewpoints often prompts a reconsideration of one's beliefs. Ultimately, if individuals choose not to accept Islam due to feeling pressured, that decision rests with them. Some non-Muslims like that environment so they can say all their thoughts and ask all their questions. Your efforts to provide clarity are commendable. I hope that I receive a response from you regarding this. Thank you.

I agree with the naseehah, but let us all appreciate some of our brothers effort doing dawah which some non muslims start opening their mind and some of them revert alhamdulillah. We can’t just ignore and act as if those good outcome is nothing to the sight of Allah.
I agree some of the muslims behaviour are inappropriate, but make dua for them, and we hope that they heard you and change for the better. But don’t just condemn without pointing the good things they did. We are brothers in islam.
I believe there are still more brothers that behaved and have good manners at SC like brother Muhammad Ali, Hamza, Mansur, Abbas and so on. Even in US i like sheikh Uthman Farooq. His method is the same, only that the condition/crowd is not like at SC.
Even if you disagree, i could see that even making video like this in youtube, you also open the comment section where muslims arguing about you and other muslim brothers you disagree with..which (according to you)is also harmful to the muslim ummah.. don’t you think?
Salamualaykum i live in the UK and i am bengali
Speakers corner made me go from intrigued to the opposite when it comes to Islam. Thank you for being honest and actually making this video. BOTH Muslim’s and Christian’s have embarrassed themselves at speakers corner. The amount of clickbait now is shambolic. So many people just want views and drama rather than actually giving positive messages or fruitful discussions…

جزاك الله خير على التنبيه لمثل هذا الموضوع الذي يغفل عنه الكثير وانا منهم
With all due respect there are spectrum of people that needs to be exposed to the truth. How to be exposed is another issue. But the positive is much greater that’s the negative. The results is self evident. For example shamsi has been a great influence for many to revert to Islam. I agree that some styles has to be turned. But overall it has been great. The audience is huge. Some feel defensive in the beginning but later they contemplate. My position is if some don’t like it, just don’t watch.
I m from Indonesia, 100% agree that we have to guard ourself from fitnah syubhat that can destroy our believe from the core. Stay away from corner debate is better for our heart. We need to seek knoledge of Islam from the schoolar that have qualification to speak about Islam. Jazakallahu Khairan Brother
I disagree, they also brought 100s if not 1000s to islam. Alhamduallah. And me personally I learned a lot about islam from the brothers in speakers corners from the debates and dialogs I have watched. Sometimes it even made me jealous in a good way that I don't know as much as they do and it made me want to learn even more. Maybe you see it differently not everyone sees negative. With your logic Othman bin farooq is in that same lane. Sometimes he runs into those hostile dialogs. Now that being said. are you gonna say the same about him? if we don't stand up strong what are we supposed to do "turn the other cheek"
May Allah guide us to the truth
